So, India is dying.
Look, I know a good number of you are from the US and things aren't amazing there either, but my country is literally on the brink of collapse. So I'd love it if we could talk about that for a minute.
If you can't do anything else, please just read and reblog.
To put things in perspective,
1 USD = 75.22 Indian rupees
1 euro = 90.99 Indian rupees
1 pound = 104.40 Indian rupees
Even a small amount of 5 or 7 or 10 of foreign currency will help a lot. Our government has essentially abandoned us. People have turned to social media for help. WhatsApp groups and DMs on twitter/insta is where we find help. Our helpline is a Google doc. Situation is so dire that hospitals are discharging patients due to lack of oxygen. Every night the same story, oxygen running out in hospitals, citizens running around to somehow arrange for oxygen with minutes to spare. Last night, we had manged to get oxygen to a hospital with 14min to spare.
Please, PLEASE help. 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽

^ that post has links to petitions and donations PLEASE boost the versions of this post with links!!
Reblogging with more links. Listen to @groundzero-and-deku ☝️ they know what they're talking about.
Some of you in the US have asked what else you can do. I'm not the best person to answer this since I'm not from there, but I do know that Biden is being urged to ship supplies to India. Maybe a more informed person can chime in with how best you can help but calling your representative and registering your concern sounds like a good starting point.
From one democracy to another, thank you. Please keep this going, you're all amazing.
Reblogging one more time
EDIT: Reblogging with donation and resource links all in one place: Here's a great post with links to petitions in the US and UK and a list of active charities and donation centres in India

Not every listed charity has the infrastructure to accept international donations, so please be sure to check this list which has specific information about charities that can and are accepting international donations.
Also re-adding the link to the give2asia charitable foundation for those who don't want to go through the whole post.
One more comprehensive resource link here
And another one with many more NGOs, resources for oxygen and plasma, and other info
Y'all, this is a good time to mention that I am not affiliated with any charity or donation center and am not receiving donations on behalf of anyone.
This is a list of resources compiled partly by me and more importantly, by other people who have a better grasp on the situation than myself.
They are to the best of our knowledge great resources but I still encourage you to do your research and put your money where you believe it will be used best.
If you find more ways to help or donate, add them in a reblog - let's get as much information out there as possible.
Much love and please stay safe

UPDATE:
The number of new cases has almost hit the 350,000 mark. The total number of covid cases in the country is just shy of 17 million. This is the situation as of 25 April 2021.
The active tally is nearing the 27-lakh mark .The country has so far administered 14,09,16,417 anti-Covid jabs
Things are dire. People are largely on their own now and help, if any, is yet to come.
President Biden is being urged to ease restrictions or remove to embargo on raw materials that could be critical in India's fight against the virus.
Just a while ago, the US government committed to helping with "a small supply of inputs and components from US companies for production of COVID-19 vaccines in India".
By Andrea Shalal WILMINGTON, Del. (Reuters) -The United States is deeply concerned by a massive surge in coronavirus cases in India and will
There are no specifics yet and time is of the essence.
Friends in the US, we know you're in the middle of your own fight. We want you safe.
But a stockpile of tens of millions of vaccines exists in the US, a fraction of which could make all the difference to India right now.
No one needs to die. Things are bad but Indian lives can still be saved without costing American ones.
We've been allies for decades.
We need your help.
Please, please, please find it in your heart to help.
Call your local representative and register your concern. Urge them to offer India aid by way of donating some of the vaccine stockpiles and removing the ban on raw material exports so lives can be saved.
Take this message to other platforms. Spread the word. Those of you on Twitter, please use your voice to promote #indianeedsoxygen.
Most importantly, DONATE WHERE YOU CAN. As little as 5 dollars can make a difference right now.
Example: here is a screenshot from the page for Making the Difference on Donatekart
As little 7 dollars can get someone a bed or an oxygen tank.
Here's a list of independent NGOs and charities that are largely accepting international donations. REMEMBER: OXYGEN is the need of the hour.
I've heard from multiple sources that the government-run PM CARES fund is not directing funds to where they're needed and while I don't have exact information, I would advise you to avoid this platform out of caution.
Some of you are rightly concerned about where your money is going.
Again, I do not represent any charity or NGO, am not affiliated with anyone and am not involved in any stage in the collection or distribution of your donations. I'm just a person doing whatever she can so please do a little bit of research to help you identify the best place to put your donation.
Charity Navigator is a good place to get a good overview of your NGOs.
At the very least, please don't let this post die. Don't let more people die. Keep reblogging and yelling about it on social media.
As someone else pointed out in the notes, there is no central helpline. All we have is each other and the little we can do in the face of this chaos.
We're resorting to social media to get help and spread awareness. We have literally the same tools you do. Please don't let this die yet. Please get the word out if you can't do anything else.
Thank you so much and please, keep us in your thoughts.

if you call a woman ugly for literaly not wearing makeup or wearing something feminine your kneecaps and knuckles are mine
Men really do be thinking that everyone’s out to control them. It’s not manipulation, unless it’s forced, which is already highly unlikely.
Women have more prolactin due to (obviously) higher estrogen levels. Prolactin makes it hard to hold back tears when there’s an urge to cry. Sorry women aren’t “man enough” to not show their feelings. It’s physically so much harder to hold back tears than it is for men.
I would also like to note that women don’t “cry uncontrollably” in the way men think. It’s not random. It happens when she feels hurt, like a normal human being. It is “uncontrollable” in the way that, like I said, she has a harder time holding back tears.
If you make her cry, it’s your fault. Unless she’s thinking about a dead puppy, which I doubt since you’re screaming in her face.
Men genuinely love framing a perfectly healthy and natural emotional response to cruelty or mistreatment as a hysterical, manipulative performance. It’s sick
Women aren’t like men therefore women are wrong.
Not likely, sirs.
I think men are projecting when they accuse women of manipulation when we cry. They use their anger, and sometimes tears, to manipulate us constantly, so it stands to reason that they’d assume that any time we show emotions, we’re doing it to manipulate them.
j/s but one of the reasons (there’s more for each of these) that popular porn categories include lesbians and nuns. irl, they won’t consent. and teens. they can’t.
but seriously, lesbians and nuns specifically have lives that totally decenter men and reject sexual relationships with them, so obviously, men, being disgusting, fetishize the hell out of them.
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
It’s the same reason they love hidden cameras and watching women pee. Any aspect of a woman’s life that is not typically shared with men is automatically titillating, another boundary they can get off on violating.
also why do whitefems seem to struggle to comprehend the basic fact that moc have privilege over ALL women on the basis of sex, but that white women have privilege over ALL poc on the basis of race… like do they just cease to understand that different axes of oppression exist when its convenient for them? and why do they conveniently always focus on moc when discussions of racism are brought up as if there is no such thing as a woman that isnt white? we’re affected by racism too and white women benefit from that and have privilege over us (woc) bc of that, denying that makes it clear that ur not an ally to woc and thats all there is to it

sounds terfy to me = this post makes sense
It's not a hypothetical. Greed kills.
#LateStageCapitalism
they/them females will perform hyper femininity, shave their ENTIRE bodies, sell nudes on onlyfans, look exactly like lingerie models and think their gender identity changes their status as women under patriachy. they/them's please develop a feminist consciousness, quickly.
toddlers with glasses make me want to cry like you are so small and you can't even see properly. you are so small and your glasses are so big. don't even get me started on when the glasses are the kind that go around the head so they won't fall off or when they make their eyes look bigger. literally cryung just thinking about it
im shooting my shot telepathically if you start giggling out of nowhere and feel flattered that was me
@minors be vicious & unforgiving in whom you cut contact with online!!! do it relentlessly!!! you shouldn’t have a 30 year old hounding you on why you unfollowed them, you aren’t obligated to “"keep up”“ with people 2x 3x your own age!!!! if u see something resembling a red flag, welcome the block button’s presence!! protect your peace!
i think “video games aren’t really the violent child-corrupting threat some parents worry they are” and “certain circles of gamer culture are incredibly toxic and can lead people down dangerous/hateful ideological rabbit holes” are ideas that can absolutely coexist
So guess what
could we please share this around, this is some really dangerous stuff going on
More people on the predators list.
Who’s hushy?
a trans woman „musician“ surprise surprise
This is male pedophilia, not female pedophilia. Identify the sex who is perpetrating instead of fooling people and diluting the problem of male violence.
this is how trans activism harms women
we’re about to see a massive surge in reports of male perpetrated sex offenses that will be reported as having been perpetrated by women
and they’ll still try and say TIMs have female pattern criminality
this is why language and pronouns are important; it was NOT a woman, a female who was perpetrating this crime and that’s relevant like….Dude. At least say “trans woman” if you’re not gonna call a spade a spade
can you cunts fuck off?
We cannot fight the problem if we cannot name it. This is male pattern violence. Do not let men hide their crimes and fetishes under name changes and gender identity changes
@iamoutofideas does it not bother you at all that whenever a noted trans activist is outed as a sex predator (which happens disturbingly often) that its always a trans identified male? if “trans women” are no more likely to commit sexual assault than females, and “trans men” are just as dangerous as “cis” men because men behave badly on account of their ~gender identity~, shouldn’t the trans identified females be the ones getting nailed for this predatory shit?
you really are out of ideas lol
interesting how when you can’t tell someone’s gender and/or their biological sex this person still knew to insult by referencing female genitalia.
man gets filled with resentment and jealousy when he sees random little girls out with their mothers.
he also recognizes that “life is easier” when you are male; he knows that being a man gave him privileges while growing up, yet he still feels delusional disdain when seeing adolescent females who he knows do not have these same privileges as he did as a child, simply for being born female. and instead of being disturbed by THAT fact, he is too distracted by his “envy.”
it’s literally so crazy how the label of feminist has become completely meaningless. 95% of ppl who go around calling themselves feminists are not. And 100% of the men. Men can be feminist allies but any man who calls himself a feminist either is doing it to score pussy, or wrongly thinks himself enlightened
modern “””feminist””” beliefs:
Makeup and heels are empowering
Plastic surgery is empowering
Prostitution is empowering
Selling nudes to men is empowering
Having your partner choke, hit, and degrade you during sex is empowering
Porn is good for everybody
If a boy likes dresses he’s a girl (or nonbinary)
If a girl hates dresses she’s a boy (or nonbinary)
Talking about vaginas, uteruses, & other stigmatized parts of female anatomy is gross
Talking about vaginas, uteruses, & other stigmatized parts of female anatomy is exclusionary
Men’s issues are feminist issues
Consent can be bought
Religion is off limits for feminist analysis
Sex acts are off limits for feminist analysis
Gender is off limits for feminist analysis
The pattern of male violence is off limits for feminist analysis
Any choice a woman voluntarily makes is off limits for feminist analysis
It’s honestly hilarious(ly sad) how the feminist movement has been successfully infiltrated by patriarchal structures and flipped completely on its head to undo most of what earlier feminists were fighting for and push classic male propaganda instead. And the women who notice this get silenced by the women who are still indoctrinated, who have been convinced that shutting up actual feminist analysis is the most “”feminist”” act they can do.
