Was anyone going to tell me "cat" means "battle" in Old Welsh or was I supposed to learn that by myself?
I, of mostly sound body and spirit, request that if I’m ever to die, someone post a new work on my AO3 that says “sorry, she died, ongoing stories postponed forever” because don’t I want my fanfic buddies to think I ghosted them. Amen or whatever you say in a will.
The south-eastern region of Turkey was hit with a devastating earthquake of 7.7 magnitude on February 6 at 4 AM, when most people were asleep. The earthquake occurred along the Northern Anatolian Fault and caused significant damages to 10 cities in Turkey's south-eastern region, with over 1,000 collapsed buildings. It also caused significant damages in Syria since it occurred near the Turkish-Syrian border on the Northern Anatolian Fault and was felt across many countries including Lebanon, Israel, Greece, Iraq, Armenia and so on.
As of right now (13:15 PM) the official numbers show that there are over 1,000 buildings collapsed, 5,000 injured and more than 900 casualties. Unfortunately we know that these numbers will not stay the same, since most of the search and rescue operations are still underway, yet there are still many places search and rescue operators weren't able to reach due to damage caused in communication and highways. Extreme cold, snow and the fact that collapsed buildings are spread across a large region indicate that search and rescue operations will be going on for a long period of time.
Turkish Disaster and Emergency Management Authority (AFAD) has declared Stage 4 Emergency nationwide, calling for international aid in search and rescue operations as well as humanitarian aid. There also have been contacts with the EU Emergency Response Cooperation Centre, the White House and many other governments for further help.
As of right now there are nation-wide calls for blood donations, and even though the main focus is on the search and rescue operations, calls for donations of food, blankets, baby formulas, diapers, pads and tampons and protective gear have already started to appear. If your government is planning on sending aid to Turkey, reach out and ask if there is anything you can donate as long as they are clean and in one piece. Remember that it is mid-winter in Turkey and it is currently snowing in most of the affected cities, people have gone out in fear in slippers and pajamas so everything that can be donated counts.
If you are able to contribute to monetary aid, please check if where you are planning to donate is an accredited organization whether it is national, regional or international. If you are able to do so, even 5 dollars is worth more than you can imagine (you can check the exchange rates by simply typing them to the Google search bar). As of right now there are a few organizations accepting monetary aid, such as the Turkish non-profit Ahbap (their twitter), but if anyone is interested I will update this post for more links for donations.
If you are in no position to do any of those things, please, please share this post with others however you can. Twitter is flooded with information spread about those under rubble and collapsed buildings and places where rescue hasn't reached yet. People are panicked and the roads are blocked, and because of weather conditions no civilian flights are allowed to and from the affected areas. There have been over 60 aftershocks, the highest being M 6.6, and some of them caused more damaged buildings to collapse.
Please also remember that Syria is in a similar position, and because of the civil war the humanitarian aid is stretched out even thinner. It is crucial to be able to gather as much international aid as possible, especially in the first 48-72 hours.
The effects of an earthquake of this magnitude in a single city would be devastating on its on, yet right now Turkey is dealing with 10 significantly damaged disaster zones. Please believe me when I say that any way you can help we will be grateful for.

No, the quickest way to brighten up a room is to turn the lights on.
I LOVE THEM SO MUCH
He's so cute and she's so cute and they're so pretty and happy and smiley and I love them so much
Their happiness is so important to me
And not just them
Rintaro's friends and his parents are so perfect and I love them so much too
His friends are so understanding and kind and they give him so much
His parents are so encouraging and wonderfully passionate and they're so pretty and THEIR RELATIONSHIP IS LIKE THE FUTURE VERSION OF THE MAIN CHARACTERS (at least I hope so)
I want nothing more than to skip to the end where they're all happy but their days are so amazing and I love them so much that I would never do that
I'm so invested
GAH! I LOVE EM SO MUCH
LOVE EM LOVE EM LOVE EM

This, but superman wears a batman version during a meeting
You know those shirts with some fictional guy’s face all over it saying “I can fix him” ?

"Are you just trying to get me to talk about myself? Because if you are...I will gladly do so!"
Suspect -> narcissistic joy
"oh sorry, i guess i was infodumping again" - sad, shy, apologetic
"you sly dog, you got me monologuing" - cool, strong, confident
