I've been trying to ignore the crap in the news now. I saw a picture that seems to say that the east side of the states is where more racist groups are placed and over by Texas and the west there isn't really much at all. They are really spread out. I think I'm getting to pissed off with seeing break or take down this statue and now this morning blow up the Mount Rushmore.... I just don't understand. Taking these things down won't change our history at all. I might not see why they are such an issue but I see them as not being symbols of hate, just statues with nothing behind them.

All the students in the news are all underage. One woman said the 15 yr old student tricked her with some kind of trick I forgot what that 50 yr old woman said....

All I know is that the government is going after Trump, some crap going on with North Korea, Trump people being investigated, WikiLeaks turned down papers during election race about the Russian scandal and now this whole crap going on in different states about ... well the horrible crap going on.

I don't talk to anyone on my mom's side of the family and I don't care too. Found out they are racist and don't care about me, hate me even so why bother? And I'm trying to get my mom to realize I don't want to talk to her and I'm not dead... I don't even understand where she's going anymore. She's off the deep end and for her that is saying something.

I saw something on Facebook about a bunch of guys with monster trucks coming down to Houston to help with relief efforts... and I really wish there were people with monster trucks and all kinds of neat vehicles going to Southeast Asia to help with relief efforts there.

I heard somethings about Houston. Like Canada offering help and the governor or whatever said no, they want their prayers...... It's really bad what happened to Houston. I don't know what's going on in SE Asia though.

I have family in Houston, but they said they were doing okay and others had it worse than them.
I wasn't expecting the hurricane to be as bad as it was.
All we got was some rain because we're further away than Houston.

The monster truck thing sounds awesome, though.
I wish I had superpowers when it comes to these things.

I'm so glad you are ok Moi. Was worried you might have it bad. Glad you didn't. I hope your family is ok. No matter how severe they got it. I can't believe Hurricane Harvey was worse than Katrina. My god he really hit hard. I have no idea how those poor people are going to continue with their lives with losing litterly everything. I saw an article that people from Katrina live in mold infested homes. Probably have nothing else to call home though. And with Harvey being worse... My god I can only imagine the mold and with the chemcial plants and that down there.... My god. :qcry:

Yeah, I don't know what people are going to do.
I wouldn't know what I'd do.
Probably want to give up...
I did hear about the mold thing too.


Not as big as the hurricane, but I saw a story about this girl that was a cheerleader or was going to be a cheerleader and she was forced into doing the splits.
Her coach and teammates held her down and she was screaming and crying for them to stop because it hurt.

What irked me was people in the comments saying things like "No pain, no gain!" "You can't be a cheerleader if you can't do the splits!" "Things like that require you to get hurt!"

>_______>
I'm not into physical sports or anything, but those comments are ignorant.
You can't just force someone to do something physical that they can't do.
You have to train and work your way up to it.
You put force like that on things, they tear and break.
It's not the same as doing flips and accidentally spraining your ankle or working out and getting sore or breaking a finger while learning self defense.
They literally FORCED her down and tore her leg muscles and did other damage and refused to stop when she screamed and cried and said it hurt.

I'd probably give up as well. I don't think I can handle losing everything and having a functioning brain to think of what to do next.

I heard about that cheerleader story. I didn't watch the video or read the article but I got the jist of what happened by the titles of the articles about it. You are right, people have to work hard at pratice for something like the splits. Not everyone can do it off the bat or maybe even do it period if they do pratice. Not all bodies work the same. The commentors are just plain morons and don't have a brain or anything that functions up there. >.> No pain, no gain is stupid as hell. People shouldn't have to be in pain for nothing. And being a cheerleader isn't easy either and yet people treat them like crap. >.>

Over here in oregon we lost over 400k acres in forest, it is so bad we are not supposed to go outside and I live nowhere near the fire zones.
So while part of one state lays underwater another state is burning to the ground.

saiyouri: I really want to help somehow, but I don't know what to do.
I can't really donate money or anything useful.
I'd love to donate some old stuff and blood, but I don't know if I can give blood.
People said since I take medication, I can't.


It seems like common sense to me.
Muscles stretch, but they need to be trained.
You gotta spend time doing stretches, you can't just rush it.
I don't know where this teacher came from or how his methods are okay by school standards.
The video I saw, said he was a famous gymnast or athletic personality, but a lot of athletes have never heard of him.
And it baffles me how people can say it's okay and normal.
Like I said, I'm not into athletics, but it's common sense that you don't do that o__O
Even these gymnasts and martial arts people in a different video said it was completely wrong and doesn't work that way.
So the people who seem to think it does, infuriate me xD
And someone actually said "It sounds like you're explaining rape."
"You gotta do this to be a cheerleader!"
"You shouldn't have chosen to be there if you weren't ready to do splits!"
"She screamed and said stop because it hurt, but they didn't stop!"



Firefoxflare: That sucks D:
Where I am, we usually get burn bans all summer.
This year, we got a hurricane and a ton of rain.

We had a burm ban, some teenager thought it would be funny to throw a firecracker into the woods.

On that note, glad your safe. The whole world seems to either be on fire or under water or about to be hit.
