Alright.

Everyone,

And I mean EVERYONE

who sees this post has to reblog it with something they love about themselves and tag at least one other person. I’m tired of the self-negativity, myself included, so let’s try to spread some positivity, ok?

One thing I love about myself is my artistic abilities.

Thanks @thelooksthatcrue!!

Hmm. I like the shape of my body (just because it was something that I really struggled to love about myself for such a long time) and my hair. I also love that I can make people laugh, makes me feel good.

Hey, I just wanted to check in how you are, and if there's anything people can do to help with the current situation in Poland. Ik its important to raise awareness, but are there any places to donate to that you know of?

I’m not sure if there are any petitions demanding that the European Union intervenes but if there will be any I’ll do my best to share them here. I doubt it’ll change anything though, I’ve signed so many petitions like that and they never did anything so I don’t see why they’d suddenly do something actually helpful and support us in any meaningful way that would actually change something for the better. I lost all hope in that aspect.

If you want to help financially I suggest you support these organizations:

- Strajk Kobiet (Women Strike). It’s an organization dedicated to fighting for women rights in Poland and organizing protests and strikes. I participated in a lot of their protests. You can support them here. 

- Aborcyjny Dream Team. They support people in need of abortion, organizing all kinds of help and giving people who went through it a platform to talk about their experience without shame or taboo. You can donate here. 

- Dziewuchy Dziewuchom is all about women supporting women. It’s a foundation dedicated to raising awareness about all kinds of issues that women face in their every day lives and promoting gender equality. It was created when the threat of the anti-abortion laws getting even more restrictive became more serious a few years ago. You can support them here. 

You can also consider supporting Fundacja Feminoteka, currently they’re trying to raise money for women who are rape victims here.

Remember that Polish Złoty, our currency, is worth much less than American dollar, euros or pounds, so what for you is only $5 for us is almost 20PLN. Even if you feel like your donation is small due to the differences in currency for us it’ll be worth more.

And every man

[setbabiesonfire]

Look how nobody’s yelling or arguing or making things into a competition. Look how this is to straight up educate people through a different perspective. Look how effective that makes the message.

The last one really hit me. I never really thought about something like that could actually impact a woman’s life. Damn…

#TalkToME

ALRIGHT EVERYONE, IT'S TIME TO TALK !!!

I have something that i need to talk about.. I hope at least some of you would care and hear me out on this one.

We are fighting a pandemic these days and maybe this is not a good time to talk about it but... There is another EPIDEMIC which is as deadly as this COVID-19 pandemic: the OPIOID EPIDEMIC !!! It's a silent killer yet NO ONE talks about it because "they take drugs, it's their own choice"... However it is NOT always our own choice. Why would anyone CHOOSE to suffer at the hands of this silent killer ?!? Sometimes we are pushed to it by various reasons. Everyone is quick to judge others but there is something that they are not seeing: we, too, are someone's daughter, son, sister, brother, mother, father or friend too. And unlike what everyone thinks; we CAN recover. Yes, at times we might resist help but... sometimes all we need to be able to climb out of the bottomless pit that we're stuck in, is someone we can reach out to. So.. as a person who has seen the deepest bottom of the deepest end of the deepest rock bottom and as someone who has lost SO MANY friends to this silent killer, TODAY, i choose to be that helping hand for someone, ANYONE, so they can go back to those who care and love them.. ALIVE !!! And i choose to join the movement which was started by the NOAC (National Opioid Action Coalition) and Motley Crue's Nikki Sixx (who has also been at the rock bottom himself). So if you are suffering from an opioid addiction, or ANY addiction, PLEASE... #TalkToMe !!! reach out to me and i PROMISE i'll be there for you in whatever way that i possibly can...

"I'll be waiting by your side

And I will be here when you're falling to your knees

You can talk to me, talk to me, talk to me

Don't be afraid to survive

You know you can talk to me, talk to me, talk to me

I will be right here waiting by your side"

now, let's start the conversation

forgot to post this yesterday so... here's a little something i wrote

August 2nd, 2020 / 10:26 PM

Oh WoW !!! What a day !!! Is it the full moon or what ?!? Is it weird that full moon gives me a hyped-up e ergu and makes me feel so fucking POWERFUL ?!? Am i some sort of a werewolf ?!? Who knows, maybe i am... Do werevolves even exist ?!? Ok. I better stop right here. This sounds like i'm on coke or acid or something. Not funny at all !!! Way too trippy. WHAT THE FUCK IS WRONG WITH ME ?!? Jeez, i wanna fucking slap myself in the face for this stupid gibberish but.. DAMN !!! The moon looks SO BEAUTIFUL. I might even write a song on this one. Gosh, i feel so INSPIRED !!! I LOVE this !!!

P.s: I fucking LOVE night sky. Beautiful.

- Lyric -

When the moon light falls on your face

And your eyes reflect the night sky

That's when the world stops

And my heart, too, all still.

This is to ALL of who are carrying scars from battles that we fought and SURVIVED THROUGH... battles that no one knows about... This is for ALL of is; silent sufferers of other people's actions towards us or their actions just in general... This is for ALL of us,; hiding our DEEPEST, DARKEST scars just to avoid others' useless and ignorant judgments... i want ALL of you to just raise your hands, rise and let go of everything that has caused you this pain... i want ALL of you to just SCREAM AND SHOUT on top of your lungs until the WHOLE WORLD hears that you chose to FREE yourselves from the shackles of other people's opinion and judgmenet towards you... i just want ALL of you to know that you DO NOT have to suffer in silence.. you have a VOICE, and it's time to use it !!! you have NOTHING and NO ONE to be scared or ashamed of... because your scars, whether visible or invisible.. or even if they have faded over time, are what makes you YOU... every scar has a story.. so EMBRACE YOUR SCARS and fear NO ONE !!! don't be afraid to tell your story.. because your story might be part of someone else's "Survival Guide" so THIS, is my story.. and today, i want to do for EVERYONE i can possibly reach to, what this beautiful Fluffy Head (Nikki Sixx) has done for me through his music and his lyrics... he became my voice when i had no voice.. so now, i want to be the voice for someone else who doesn't think they have a voice... today; i want each and every one of you to know that you are LOVED and you are WORTHY and you are ENOUGH !!! so now, you can put your hands up and give the, ahem, the middle finger salute, to EVERYONE who's against you... YOU ALL ARE AMAZING !!! 💜💜💜💜

Much Love;

- Dallas Van Der Merwe
