so i opened my secret twitter and decided to use it to talk about dramas (in english i promise) it’s @ geolohs if anyone is interested
They must all have their own stories.
"You survive this and in some terrible way, which I suppose no one can ever describe, you are compelled, you are corralled, you are bullwhipped into dealing with whatever it is that hurt you. And what is crucial here is that if it hurt you, that is not what’s important. Everybody’s hurt. What is important, what corrals you, what bullwhips you, what drives you, torments you, is that you must find some way of using this to connect you with everyone else alive. This is all you have to do it with. You must understand that your pain is trivial except insofar as you can use it to connect with other people’s pain; and insofar as you can do that with your pain, you can be released from it, and then hopefully it works the other way around too; insofar as I can tell you what it is to suffer, perhaps I can help you to suffer less."
- James Baldwin, The Artist's Struggle for Integrity
You seem happier than the time I got into college. Gosh. I'm not that happy. To me, that was... the best moment of my life. Gosh. That's an honor I didn't see coming.

A little atention please!
Southern Brasil is once more suffering with heavy torrential rains, being mentioned even in NYTimes, the situation is very dire and closely replicates last years situation, please if possible, try to donate on found raisers and if you pass by a brazilian donation link and you're foreigner maybe the currency you donate from is more valuable than reais(R$) so even $1 or €1 or £1 is good enough for us! Bit by bit we can overcome this obstacle! There are many forces joining the rescue teams is the areas most affected by the floods, images like the ones in this post aren't that rare at this point and i hope people will understand the urgency of it all! Bellow i will leave the donation pix for other brasilians to be to help and in this
for foreingners to donate!
i will keep updating this post with donation links that i find that will be useful to ppl outside from brasil!
the fact that there are white people going "omg they're just like us" about people in south, south east, south west asia and africa and south america like it's some huge revelation that we're all human is so fucking dismal to me. what do you mean you never considered the personhood of the people who don't look like you or don't have your culture? why do you think that you're unique in your suffering? why do you think you deserve praise for realizing that we're all human?
everyone please read this and share if you can.
Brazil is going through one of the worst climatic crisis ever seen.
i live in the southernmost state, Rio Grande do Sul. we have been suffering from extreme, nonstop rainstorms for a week now. the rivers are flooding, reaching 4-6 meters above their natural level. people are being rescued by helicopters, neighborhoods are being evacuated. entire cities are slowly but surely becoming submerged in water. 60 people missing and counting. 32 deaths and counting.
and this is not new. last november also had a flood like this one. 50 dead, many material losses. it happened again this january, with thousands being left without power or water for days.
three catastrophical disasters within less than a year. three disasters only a few months apart.
this is not natural.
unsustainable agricultural practices and politics led to this. a complete disregard for nature led to this. greed led to this. always greed.
when it comes to the climate crisis, i cannot stress this enough: we need to act now if we still want to live. disasters like this are going to happen more often and they're going to be much, much worse. this flood is being considered the worst climatic catastrophe in the history of my state. i don't know how long it will take for another bigger one to happen and take its place. i just know it will be sooner than it should.
links to donate (if you can't donate, sharing already helps a lot):
link for non-brazilians (paybox)
will update more links later. in the meantime, pray for us.

when I see something dated 2019 I think “oh that’s not too long ago” and then I remember that 2019 was not only five years ago but those five years have somehow contained several lifetimes
