    blackmattersus:


    The family of a missing Georgia State University college student is asking for the public’s help in finding her.

    Photos of 21-year-old Monique Priester were posted on Instagram, and fliers are circulating around the Georgia State campus in hopes of locating her.

    Due to the increase of hate crimes today, we need to spread this information, because there might be a chance to save someone!

    This is a student at my school!
    Help find Monique Priester!!

    I hope you wake up early enough in the morning to put on your favorite outfit and make your favorite breakfast. I hope you find your skin clear and hair healthy. I hope you’re content with the way your body looks. I hope you find happiness in small things today. I hope that, even with your ups and downs, you are content with yourself.

  • The signs as poems from "Love & Misadventure" by Lang Leav

    August 28, 2015 12:43 am
    • Aries:

      Afraid To Love

    • "I turn away

    • and close my heart-

    • to the promise of love

    • that is luring.

    • For the past has taught

    • to not be caught,

    • in what is not

    • worth pursuing-

    • To never do

    • the things I've done

    • that once had led

    • to my undoing."

    • Taurus:

      Swan Song

    • "Her heart is played

    • like well-worn strings;

    • in her eyes,

    • the sadness sings-

    • of one who was destined

    • for better things."

    • Gemini:

      First Love

    • "Before I fell

    • in love with words,

    • with setting skies,

    • and singing birds-

    • it was you I fell

    • in love with first."

    • Cancer:

      Art and Books

    • "Without a doubt,

    • I must read,

    • all the books

    • I've read about.

    • See the artworks

    • hung on hooks,

    • that I have only,

    • seen in books."

    • Leo:

      Beauty's Curse

    • "Her bow is drawn

    • to worlds of dark;

    • where arrows spring

    • and miss their mark.

    • She'll turn their heads-

    • but not their hearts."

    • Virgo:

      Saving You

    • "The darkness takes him over,

    • the sickness pulls him in;

    • his eyes--a blown-out candle;

    • I wish to go with him.

    • Sometimes I see a flicker--

    • a light that shone from them;

    • I hold him to me tightly,

    • before he's gone again."

    • Libra:

      Heart On The Line

    • "Love is good,

    • it is never bad-

    • but it will drive you mad!

    • When it is given to you,

    • in dribs and drabs."

    • Scorpio:

      A Thank-You Note

    • "You have said

    • all the things

    • I needed to hear

    • before I knew

    • I needed to hear them.

    • To be unafraid

    • of all the things

    • I used to fear,

    • before I knew

    • I shouldn't fear them."

    • Sagittarius:

      In Two Parts

    • "You come and go so easily,

    • your life is as you knew-

    • while mine is split in two.

    • How I envy so the half of me,

    • who lived before love's due,

    • who was yet to know of you."

    • Capricorn:

      Jealousy

    • "It was the way

    • you spoke about her.

    • With animosity, regret, disdain

    • and underneath it all-

    • just a hint of pride."

    • Aquarius:

      Waking Without You

    • "Every song that sings of him,

    • from every heart

    • heard breaking.

    • I sing along in dreams of him,

    • I cling to-

    • when I start waking."

    • Pisces:

      The Keeper

    • "You were like a dream,

    • I wish I hadn't

    • slept through.

    • Within it I fell deeper,

    • than your heart would

    • care to let you.

    • I thought you were a keeper,

    • I wish I could

    • have kept you."

    When all is said and done, whether I die in two years or sixty-eight years, I want people to look back and say, “Yo, that dude Shane was hella sexy and funny and tried his best to make a change in the world.”

    My incredible experience here on Tumblr over the last four years has taught me this: love amongst strangers is a powerful phenomenon.

    I’m asking for your help. All it takes is a simple reblog.

    I was born with a fucked up disease called spinal muscular atrophy that makes my muscles waste away as I get older. On my blog here, I’ve shown you how my disease complicates every aspect of life, from going poop to having sex to playing sports.

    The older I’ve gotten, the more important it has become for me to help others going through similar situations.  

    So I started a nonprofit organization, with very little idea what that even meant, but now, I’m finally in a position to start making real changes.

    With our newest program, No More Nightmares, we provide people with my disease the adaptive technology they need to keep living awesome lives.

    In order to fulfill all the grant applications we are getting, (for things like ramps, and vans, and medical equipment) we need consistent revenue.

    I believe that enormous change begins with small change, and so I’m asking for your help tonight. To continue building funds for this vital program, I’ve created a little support page.

    If you can, I’m asking that you toss us a buck or two. Together, I believe we can achieve incredible things, which translates to thousands of people with muscular dystrophy getting the things they need to thrive.

    Here is the link to donate: http://igg.me/at/lamn/x/9161855

    -

    If you can’t give online, you can mail a donation to:

    Laughing At My Nightmare, Inc.

    PO BOX 3398

    Bethlehem, PA 18017

    Even if you can’t give, a share can do more good than you’ll ever realize. Will you help me change the world?

    Love,

    Shane

    Please listen up everyone!

    I come from a small rural town in Australia, and 3 weeks ago, a young man from this town was unfortunately diagnosed with a Grade 4 Brain Tumor. His name is Jackson Byrnes and is 18 years old. I went to High School with him and this news has been absolutely devastating for everyone.

    His family have set up a donation page and need to raise $80,000 in order for him to get the best treatment for his condition. Jackson needs to make it to Sydney for an operation to remove his tumor. Neurosurgeon Dr Charlie Teo is the best option for this life prolonging surgery and the cost of said surgery equals the goal of the donation page. They do not have alternatives! He needs to have this surgery on the 21st of April!

    All sorts of fund raisers have already been held by our community but as it is only a small town, we cannot raise these substantial funds alone; so I have decided to turn to tumblr for help. His gofundme page needs a larger audience. Though I barely know him, I am desperate to help as I know how much of a struggle it is to have a family member go through something like this. 

    Please, please, please consider making a donation towards this cause. You certainly won’t regret it. Don’t fail me now tumblr. Signal boosters unite!


    To donate or view more information on Jackson’s condition, please visit the links below
