Eight-year-old Naomi ignored a fall to raise £2,365 for charity

Towering achievement: Naomi Townsend has raised thousands of pounds for charity South Croydon schoolgirl Naomi Townsend fell over but picked herself up and finished her sponsored run last weekend, exceeding her fund-raising target, with £2,365 towards the Jamaican hurricane relief fund through her sponsored run in Ashburton Park last weekend. “Even though I fell over and hurt myself, I didn’t…

fake idgafer I saw you soften your sharp edges, learn what it means to be gentle, take the passion that fueled your anger and turn it into tenderness and understanding, let yourself feel the grief that comes with caring about someone, put aside your pride and let the warmth of love and bittersweet yearning take its place. All for your rival, your best friend, your deku.

i need simon to be the one neighbor with a generator when the light's been out for days and when you shakily ask him if he can let you at least charge your phone he just drags you into his home and tells you that you can stay if you pull your weight ie. feed him and wash his ripe work clothes.

sure. you don't know how to cook but he eats it like gordon ramsey made it, doesn't even leave crumbs on the table.

you mix colors with whites, dark with light, but luckily for you, all he wears is black. (not like it matters. if you stained a wife beater pink, he'd blame it on his girl mixing her red thready knickers in with his own clothes)

it works, you suppose, but then he tells you that yall are about to have company so make plenty of food. it's 3 others but they all eat like a family of four.

and this is where things take a turn. where he always left you alone before, his hands are on your shoulders. waist. hips. curling around your ankle, thumb digging into your foot beneath the table. the scottish one notices and tells you both to keep it PG. ye're in decent company, he grumbles.

he helps pick up the dishes once everyone's happy and full of whatever you threw in the oven. stands so close he's pining you against the sink, counter digging painfully into your skin.

"they like ya," he says. well yes, you rather noticed when they kept complimenting the science experiment you called dinner. you also noticed that they called you missus. or maybe you misheard. their accents are pretty thick.

after a nightcap, he sends them on their merry way. "the missus is tired. off with ya." so you hadn't misheard.

you aren't sure how one thing led to another. how you'd been aimlessly drying dishes with a rag to having his head between your thighs, tongue dragging between your folds, fingers pressed into you up to the knuckle.

what do you know is that where he bit your neck as you came still aches. he'd been talking filth that would have even a sailor apple cheeked as he used his spit slick thumb to rub your stiff pearl in tight little circles, feeling you felt your peak approaching at a speed that almost frightened you when he sunk his crooked teeth into the junction of your neck. hard.

enough to feel a bit of a stinging tearing of skin.

ouch. you'd ask if this is also a part of pulling your weight but he's doing it for you as he drags you toward his bedroom.

hey everyone please keep the gulf of mexico in your thoughts rn for the earliest hurricane in hurricane season in 58 years.

hurricane beryl is said to become a category 2 before it even hits landfall, and its already caused horrible damage to the yucatan peninsula. and if you happen to be on the west side of the gulf of mexico, particularly along the texas coast, charge your things, stock up on water and food that doesnt need power to cook, and make sure anything valuable is off the floor in case of flooding. from what ive seen, its reminding me a bit of hurricane harvey, and at least in the houston area there's already been a lot of rain meaning we are primed for flooding. just be careful, i'm pretty concerned about this one.

A little bit of before Beryl and after Beryl in my parish.

This is Holland Bamboo - a 4 km (2.3 mile) avenue of arched and shaded arrangements of bamboo on both sides of the roadway. It was planted in the 1700s.

This is what it looks like after the hurricane hit Jamaica.

Want to help the families that were affected by this disaster? Share this please, and give what you can.

Because of America's federal system, Governors have to request federal aid, usually its a formality and governors have requests already drawn up by the time a hurricane makes landfall

Texas' Republican governor however left the state (and country) and President Biden and the White House had to track him down to try to get much needed aid to the state...

The seas in the main development region of the Atlantic have already reached temperatures not normally seen until August or September. This has led to the rapid intensification of Hurricane Beryl, which crashed through the Windward Islands on Monday and is now traversing the Caribbean Sea toward Jamaica. Beryl is, to put it mildly, a freak storm.

From tropical depression to Cat 4 hurricane in 48 hours, then to Cat 5 hurricane (sustained 165+ mph winds) in 24 hours. Holy forking shirt this thing is gonna kill some people.

⚠️IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT⚠️

There's a hurricane heading here where I live. It's a category 2 and we're on Orange Alert already, which means that is near, but hasn't touched land yet. My family and I have already taken appropriate prevention measures and stocked up with enough supplies. The hurricane is supposed to pass through here around 7:00PM and should be leaving around tomorrow noon.

I'm telling you this in case you don't hear about me around that time. I'll be saving my phone's battery in case of emergency. I'll keep you updated if I get the chance, and I'll make sure to let you know when it's over.

In case any of you is currently in the zones that will be affected by Beryl hurricane, stay safe.

Hurricane Beryl has devastated Union Island, the jewel of the Caribbean.

Union Island Environmental Alliance (UIEA) are in need of support.

Homes have been destroyed, lives lost, communities left in ruins, and Union Island's beautiful, diverse ecosystem is in tatters.

It is the only place on the entire planet that is home to the Union Island gecko - a tiny, critically endangered lizard - as well as housing a host of other rare and endemic species such as the Grenadines pink rhino iguana and the Caribbean diamond tarantula.

Union Island is a shining beacon of conservation efforts in the Caribbean - but now 150mph winds have demolished our ability to protect nature there.

We don’t yet know how bad the damage to the environment is, but the building for the project set up to protect the wildlife has been flattened.

Nature is resilient and so are the people of Union Island - but they need support to ensure their work can continue.
