Please share this if you can.
On July 11th, my little sister (13, turning 14 in August) and stepdad came home from the store and found my mom’s dead body in the kitchen. Lisa passed away at 41 on 07/11/20. Her cause of death was not natural, and we are still waiting on a coroner’s report (4-8 weeks for the second test results to come back).

My family is very small back in Pennsylvania. It consists of my stepdad (Jeff), little sister (Hannah), grandmother, aunt, uncle, little cousin, and me. I am the only one who lives far away. I moved to Illinois, cared for by my boyfriend’s parents when I was 17. I’m currently 19.
Our home life was never perfect. Perfect doesn’t exist. But, like everyone, we struggled. Low class, homeless at times, unable to access clean water/food/medical care as a result of being low income, and inability to find reliable transportation (the money for bus fare can go a long way. $1 has a different meaning) besides walking.
I am not in that situation anymore.
However, my family is.
My stepdad used the $500 for rent to pay off various expenses related to my mother’s passing. I am giving $500. My mother wanted to be buried, but we have to cremate her. The removal from the house was $800. (To see mom’s dead body for the last time, they have to pay money. That’s covered(?) fortunately, because the man is letting them see her for 5 minutes.) And my family would like to have her sealed in an (affordable) urn.
My mother made me promise to take care of my little sister when she passes. I can’t do that, but Jeff will. I am thankful. My stepdad is a great man and loves my little sister. She loves him too. He’s the best dad we’ve ever had. He’d die for us.
By supporting them financially, it will bring a lot of peace. The death of your mother should not leave you broke, without a home or a bed to sleep in.
I love you, Mom. I’ll make you proud. I’ll keep Hannah the safest I can from far away.
If you would like to donate, please do. I would also greatly appreciate it if you can reblog this post.

Research has shown that Hand Talk is still being used by a small number of deaf and hearing descendants of the Plains Indian cultures.
“Hand Talk is endangered and dying quickly,” said Melanie McKay-Cody, who identifies herself as Cherokee Deaf and is an expert in anthropological linguistics.
McKay-Cody is the first deaf researcher to specialize in North American Hand Talk and today works with tribes to help them preserve their signed languages. She is pushing for PISL to be incorporated into mainstream education of the deaf.

Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
they also post a lot of cat videos that get popular as well. however, this person is a horrendous bigot. here’s what i found just by searching the word “trans” on their blog. HUGE TRANSMISOGYNY TW
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
reactionary hate groups (alt-right/nazis, terfs, etc) often indoctrinate people this way. post innocuous content like memes to gain a following, then start spreading hate speech. don’t give this person a platform. don’t spread their content. block and do not interact.

I like the idea of Benrey stealing Gordon’s laptop, not just to see what games are on there, but also look through the man’s music collection & playlists.
Benrey doesn’t actually know much about human music. Yes, of course, there’s the Sweet Voice, but that’s an entirely different thing… right?
He decides to do research, as much as his focus issues allow him to. Humans use music to convey emotions as well, he finds. It’s disappointing to him that most of that happens through lyrics, but humans have to make do with the weak vocal cords they got, he thinks.
“You know how it is with game soundtracks?”, Gordon starts as Benrey is mumbling to himself about his findings.
“Uh-”
“In context, they can make you feel things without lyrics. You remember the moment that is related to a song you’re listening to… and your brain just- it just remembers the emotion & replays it, I guess.”
“Huh.”
Things slowly start to make sense to him. While there are no colours to read in the air when he hears human music, he starts to connect certain tunes & noises to emotions as well.
Gordon humming along to a song on the radio while doing chores with him. Tommy tapping his feet & gently drumming his fingers on a surface as he got his headphones on when going to the mall with them. Hearing those small rhythmic tunes start to have the same calming effect on Benrey as his Sweet Voice has on others.
Singing though… yes, he has heard Gordon & Tommy sing before. Nothing big, mind you. Just softly, slightly absentminded-
But one day Benrey overhears loud music coming from the kitchen. Not the usual casual pop stuff that he’s used to from Tommy… no, this is something raw. Drums, guitars, bass, electric noises, shrill voices-!
He needs to know what this… means. There is rhythm, there is so much energy in this, who is even listening to- Benrey pokes his head into the kitchen. He needs to know right the fuck now.
Oh.
Gordon is having the time of his life, singing at the top of his lungs into a spoon (oh he’s making muffins. dope.), dancing without much direction through the small kitchen, but… he looks so happy? He’s smiling as he sings, his laugh lines creasing a bit more, as the drum solo of the song reaches its peak and-
HOLY FUCKING SHIT
Gordon lets the most guttural, bass-heavy metal scream. Benrey is effectively digging his nails into the door frame to the kitchen, wood threatening to splinter, as he tries to ground himself despite the display in front of him. Pink Sweetvoice escapes his open mouth, blown-wide eyes focused on Gordon and nothing else.
This is raw emotion. This is personal. This is more than Gordon’s yelling back at Black Mesa. This has a purpose. Good purpose. Good feeling. Great Cool. And yes, it is absolutely beautiful.
Benrey decides right then and there that Metal is his favourite human music genre.
