hey it’s time for the monthly pulse-clockwork update that no one asked for. i originally gave myself a deadline of early june to finish at least the outline for the asian homestuck writeup, HOWEVER. vietnam was hit and is currently struggling with the 3rd covid wave, and my family and relatives were also affected to varying degrees. so my energy has been focused on uhhh Not Losing My Mind and getting on with more time sensitive stuff
i’m not sure how much people want updates on the writeup, either way the purpose of making this post is more to direct more attention to how you can help us, the whole country of vietnam, through this process. did you know first world countries possess 75% of the available vaccines for covid-19, and countries struggling the most with this 3rd wave are still mostly unvaccinated? in my grief i’ve been pleading again and again for anyone on the internet i can reach to pressure their first world gov to lift vaccine patents. while you’re doing that, vietnam now has a public fund anyone can donate to through bank transfer to cover costs for vaccines, medical supplies, living costs for quarantined neighborhoods, etc. if you’re interested in either spreading the information or donating, refer to this post:

(linking the post so i don’t have to write the whole explanation again sksdghsd)
i can’t stress this enough, for all the meager amounts of clout i might have, all that my platform is worth, i want it to be for this right now. it’s not just vietnam, south asia (especially india) and south east asia are struggling to not fall apart as new mutations cropped up, and we are mostly unvaccinated. direct the energy of your anger towards antimaskers and the cdc’s bullshit protocols to helping us. please. keep yourself informed, actually read the info and then spread it around, maybe organize in your own communities and donate anywhere you can verify if you’re able. thank you for reading
