Mermaid AU Anyone?

Mermaid AU anyone?

Saying this right here, right now.

If you are celebrating that Helene caused catastrophic damage in the Appalachian mountains, based on the mountains being filled with "sundown towns" unfollow me. Right fucking now.

You sound ignorant, dumb and are proving you are just as bad as the fucking MAGA right wing bigots you claim to despise.

The Appalachian mountains are filled with incredibly far left people. There is the occasional town where there are more right leaning folk. I will not deny that. However there are many cities there that are incredibly diverse. Not only that, but diversity is not the only thing that dictates how left an area is.

The people of Appalachia have been routinely fucked over multiple times, until all that is left there is the rich people within their mansions, and the poor, struggling to survive. They did not have the infrastructure to withstand this storm, they didn't have the money to leave.

THEIR BOSSES WERE TELLING THEM TO STAY AT WORK UNTIL THE FLOODING GOT SO BAD THEY LOST THEIR LIVES WHILE THEIR BOSSES FLED.

This is my home, my family lives here, on the North Carolinian border. My family was from Banner Elk, I go there every year. I go to Linville to hike the falls, I go to Asheville and Boone for the witchy shops and the coffee shops. I was going to go this October for the breweries doing a mock Octoberfest.

This place was where people looked after others no matter their religion, skin color, gender or sexual identity. To sit here and post on Tiktok, Tumblr, Instagram or WHEREVER, that these people fucking DESERVED THIS, that it was KARMIC JUSTICE, and that they deserve the lack of aid they're receiving proves that you're a fucking wannabe leftist, but actually an authoritarian shitstain that doesn't deserve to lick the fucking gum on the bottom of my shoe.

Leftism is about COMMUNITY. About the whole of humanity helping the Earth and the Earth helping us. It's about helping your neighbor down the street, or that homeless man that says some weird shit. It's about giving a sandwich to Crackhead Jimmy at the gas station because he looked a bit more thin today. It's volunteer work, and community outreach. It's building a better tomorrow through helping people today.

If you are saying these people deserved this? That they deserved their homes, their livelihoods, their grandparents, aunts/uncles, parents, children, nieces/nephews, cousins, dogs, cats, horses and pets to be fucking swept away, to not know if they are ALIVE OR DEAD, if they will ever be found, To be HOMELESS.... Then you are not a leftist, you are a nazi in disguise.

If that bothers you? Good. You need it then. Be bothered, because your lack of empathy towards people who are suffering from poverty and a lack of infrastructure tells me that you're a shitty leftist and a shitty human being.

If you're wanting to do any sort of outreach, American Red Cross and other organizations will be able to help.

Donate, volunteer, do whatever you can in any amount you can. The damage is horrific, and the fact of the matter is over 1,000 people are missing and 100 are dead. I'm a weather nerd, and I know this is taboo to say, but this is genuine.... This is the Appalachian Katrina. Most of these places will never recover, as tourism is their main or only source of income.

The trauma from this event alone, regarding the lack of infrastructure, the casualties, and the missing persons will be catastrophic, and wreak havoc on the families there for generations to come.

It breaks my heart how some people don't know how much information they are missing out on in the games.

Did you know Gaz specializes in interrogation, not Ghost or Price, Gaz.

Did you know the first mission of the original first game is cannon to Soap? Did you know that not only did he lock a mp in the trunk of a car. Which we all know, but also that while on patrol when they were attacked and the machine gun malfunctioned. So Soap stripped the weapon and reassembled it before firing 150 single shots, re-cocking the gun for every round. And claimed Any and all of his comrades would have done the same thing?

Did you know All Gillied up is still canon and MacMillan still owes Price a favor presumably? Did you know MacMillan was still cannon? That also means Imran Zakhaev is still alive?

There are so many things people just don't know and it breaks my heart because these are some of my favorite fun facts.

If I make 1.2k every paycheck, but only bring home 600 - 700 dollars, it should be the fucking same for you rich asshats.

Be on the lookout for the Chronic Trials series/Brave The Storm fic. I have a draft I am writing and it's gonna be a good one people >:)

Have you seen Ark's Map system on console?? It's arguably worse 😭😭😭 At least you can read the map on Minecraft

The maps in Minecraft are THE stupidest map system I have ever fucking encountered and I say it should be second priority behind the Mob Vote, I volunteer my sword.
