I know that words on the internet do very little in the face of violence but my heart still goes out to everyone affected by what happened in Las Vegas. I also know that many of you want to take action to help those affected, and I applaud each and every one of you, so here’s some things you can do right now:
1) Donate Blood - Even if you’re nowhere near Las Vegas please consider making a donation. Not only is there a serious need now but blood is needed 24/7 around the world. And many times the donation location will reward you with things like free movie tickets!
2) Volunteer - When tragedies like this happen it’s more important than ever to lend a hand. Websites like volunteermatch.org can point you in the right direction or you can simply reach out to people you know to see if they need some extra help today. Even if you aren’t directly impacted you may know someone that is.
3) Donate Money - BE CAUTIOUS! It’s sad to say but there are always opportunists that will create fraudulent fundraisers in order to profit from tragedy. But if you do want to donate money look for smaller local charities in the Las Vegas area that are equipped to put help where it’s needed. There are also organizations like the National Compassion Fund which sends your donations directly to the victims.
All-in-all, just keep spreading the goodwill. In times like these it’s easy to fall into despair or rage, even if those emotions are perfectly valid. Just keep the light alive, no matter the dark.
Jus going to not be on much other social media... I want to stay on tumblr because it’s more like my kind of space. I don’t personally know a lot of people on here so this makes it a bit easier on me mentally. It’s not like I feel forced to keep up with everyone else.
Art trade with @fishooe (her tumblr is the same un, check her out)!!!! Anyways the theme was rain and I did two renditions of the prompt and it was pretty fun!!! Thanks for trading with me I hope I can do it again :)
