Donation Drive, Argentina is On fire: (G)
2 months ago
My friends,
To the point before details. In the following days I will open "adopt" auctions where payment is a donation to a few ONGs working currently in Argentina. Pricing will be as usual, I will list a few native species to promote them :3 and some YCH sheet formats for you to pick from!
I am considering doing it as a streaming event, if there's interest? Drawing your character live, based on the species and the sheet format you choose!
Now, the heavy why if anyone's up to know:
My beautiful country is half on fire. I remember when Australia was going through the same nightmare, it was on every media outlet, But we are on our own. Our local psychotic clown president has prepared the terrain so this would happen. He cut the budget of the fire prevention and control by a 70%, has changed laws that prevented the comercial exploitation of burnt lands and their selling to international conglomerations, and he has labeled the Native American communities living there as "terrorists"
This wasn't nature. There are recordings of people starting the fires. They were paid to do this. At least 4 of these recordings show this and there are people being arrested. In Chile, over 100 citizens have being arrested and charged over this. Milei is sucking international investors cock too hard to face the international violation so that's not gonna happen here. So far here: 3 arrests.
Flames are killiing animals (many endangered and endemic), ancient trees, an ecosystem that took centuries to grow, native american communities, and argentinean locals.
I know times are very hard everywhere. USA is going through a horrid time as well. But this is overwhelming. We are empovered, beaten by a never ending economic crisis, and with an evil psychopath as a president (sounds familiar?) He has brought war equipment, wasted millions on pastries for the goverment houses (yes, as you read it) promotional crap for his politics, and fuel for his private yet as he goes around to make a fool of himself in beaches and big cities, but he says there's no money to pay firefighters a decent salary , to buy proper equipment, and is strangling normal people with taxes and an inflation that never ends.
We need help. This is a damage that cannot be repair in this generation. We have to stop the fire because it keeps destroying this.
I'll explore and talk to people about the ONGs that are actually on the ground, and avoid vultures, before posting it.
Thank you, and I am sorry for bringing RL into this again. I know it's not right, I know it's annoying, but I need to do all in my power to try and help. This is catastrophic. It's passed normal.
