if your house starts flooding high DO NOT GO UPSTAIRS OR INTO THE ATTIC!!! you will suffocate and drown!!!!! instead go onto the roof of your house and wait until rescue!!!! a family friend of mine recently did that in harvey and is currently recovering in the hospital. DO NOT GO THE SECOND STORY OF YOUR HOUSE!!
when you get rescued you can only take a handbag with you. dont take unimportant things and dont worry about clothing!
boiled eggs last a long time and are easy to make and store
ziploc bads are your best friends for sketchbooks and notebooks
chances are youll get evacuated to a church or shelter before a more long term place like a hotal room until the waters calm down. if you can, raise any furniture up or bring it upstairs.
any water that floods your house will be disgusting and dirty so be prepared
dont start your car until the engine dries completely out. if possible, get it professionally looked at
take advice from someone who lived so close to the flooding. do not go into your attic if your house floods!
let’s not: bring awareness to an issue by being condescending and rude
idk why this is such a problem on here?? i understand being angry because people don’t know about an issue that might be huge to you, but that’s just it. they don’t know. that’s not really their fault. if someone doesn’t know about something and you feel that they should, then just tell them!! don’t call them names, be disrespectful, guilt trip them, and expect them to be okay with that. it’s bullshit lmao
yall ever serve urself an appropriate amount of spaghetti and are full after eating the set amount of spaghetti and consciously know that u have eaten all the spaghetti u needed but also. u know that there is More spaghetti in the kitchen. so u go and get urself more spaghetti and spend the rest of the night feeling like u ate 30 bricks cursing urself for eating so much spaghetti
IF YOU NEED TO CALL 911 BUT ARE SCARED TO BECAUSE OF SOMEONE IN THE ROOM, dial and ask for a pepperoni pizza. They will ask if you know you’re calling 911. Say yes, and continue pretending you’re making an order. They’ll ask if there’s someone in the room.
You can ask how long it will take for the pizza to get to you, and they will tell you how far away a dispatcher is.
My flat-mate’s date for the night was almost as drunk as her. She had passed out in her room and locked the door. He refused to leave because he wanted to have sex. He also demanded food because he was dealing with “whiskey dick”. He didn’t like the lack of food in the fridge. I called 911, did the stuff stated above, and he was getting PISSED about how long the “order” was taking. He took my phone, demanded they “hurry the fuck up”. Police arrived two minutes later, arrested him, and helped me file a police report. Pressing charges wasn’t necessary because he had warrants on him from THREE different states for the very thing he planned to do to me. Several months after this happened one of the officers informed me he was charged with two felonies because he crossed stay lines, and will be serving no less than 35 years in prison. The officer ripped into my flat-mate about her bringing home complete strangers, while drunk, knowing full well this shit could happen.
This was 14 years ago.
Do the pizza order, do it as calmly as you can. The dispatcher I spoke to said things like this:
“If he’s drunk say you want mushrooms.” I said I want extra mushrooms.
“If he’s threatening you with sexual assault say you want onions.” I said I want onions.
She went like this with different toppings and sauces for a description of him, like pineapple if he’s blonde, black olives if he’s tall, extra large if he’s tall, etc.
They’ve heard this sort of coded call before. They’re trained for it. They will understand what you’re saying. Order the pizza.
Guys who make fun of guys who do ballet must not realise how disciplined, agile, coordinated and strong you have to be to be a ballet dancer.
Guys who make fun of ballet are stupid.
my legs hurt now
Also, ballet men have literally the most aesthetically pleasing body out of any other group of men I have ever encountered. And then can lift you over their heads!
Always wanted to try out. Martial arts game would def improve from it.

thank you finally a post about male ballet dancers!! they’re so under-appreciated in the outside world, and no one understands how hard it is for them
male ballet dancers are so graceful and masculine …. normalize and increase the number of male ballet dancers…..
