Hey y'all! It's pretty bad down here in Texas. No heat. No power. No water. So if you want to donate to help us out, we'd really appreciate it. Also friendly reminder that the 25,000+ homeless in Texas are suffering disproportionately, so if you can, please give to them.

Austin Mutual Aid is raising funds to book hotel rooms for residents living outside without water or shelter.

The Texas-based Ending Community Homelessness Coalition has put together a list of organizations that are currently working to support unsheltered people in Austin and Travis County.

The Solid Ground Ministry is now serving as a cold weather shelter for families and individuals. You can donate to their operations here.

The organization Maximizing Hope is raising money in order to purchase hotel rooms for people in the Austin area.

Dallas-area organizations Austin Street Center, OurCalling, The Stewpot, Union Gospel Mission, and Oak Lawn United Methodist Church are pooling money together to pay for temporary shelter as well as COVID-19 rapid tests for those in need.

Plus, if you live in Texas and do have power, you can also help your neighbors by trying to conserve electricity as much as possible. Find best practices here.

I recognize that a lot of these places are church based, so here's some non-Christian organizations to donate to if you'd rather do that:

Donate a care package to Integral Care

Pets and animal shelters are also in danger, so give to Austin Pets Alive

Dallas Stop Evictions is moving people off the streets and into hotels, as well as providing them with food, water, clothing, and toiletries

And of course, donate to local mutual aid funds:

Texas really?

I don’t live in Texas anymore, I moved to South Carolina a year ago and let me tell you it’s not any better (red state, voted red) I’m just so done, like you guys really gonna vote for the zodiac killer? For a man who looks like if you poor even just a capful of water, he’ll fucking melt like he’s the wicked witch from oz? How do you have so many women, men, and people of color voting for such a bright young man, and Cruz wins?? Something ain’t right and I can feel that in my gut.

EDIT: GUYS JOE CUNNINGHAM THE DEMOGRATIC VOTE FOR SOUTH CAROLINA WON AND I AM SO FUCKING HAPPY! A RED STATE VOTING BLUE!! A RED STATE!!

Literally got into an argument with a girl on Instagram about the mask mandate ending. She was like "I'll respect your opinion if you'll respect mine", 🥺🙏 and I was like "people are dying Susan"
