Also a massive thanks to everyone who has streamed to help this fund.

You are what makes GBAtemp such an amazing community to be a part of!


Now, as for GoFundMe, they have still not released the funds to Chary, despite saying they would, over 10 days ago. The excuse is their engineers need time to convert the raised amount to dollars, and their payment processing team are trying their best to get it done. To me this sounds absurd, but here we are, 14 days since the fund started, waiting for the cash to be paid out in this emergency situation.[/USER][/USER][/USER][/USER]

Yup. Gracefully it wasn't hit but I've read folks who are blocked by floods and without boats they can't leave.


France, Italy, Germany and Sweden weren't hit by a natural disaster but they are at the brink of destruction and rapes happen there daily.
Thats the fault of what is causing their disaster

I'm aware about that, yeah. But was talking about the post I quoted, when he thought that rape could occur on a place when people are rescued.

A closed place like that is more likely that someone may get raped and the victim is silenced. Women need to be careful in those places and men as well. A lot of sick bastards everywhere.

May the lights go out so that people can finally wake up.

What's happening in Texas is pretty terrible but let's not forget that there's also other people in need, whether that's US or some other country. My country's govt is so retarded that they refuse to acknowledge the constant wildfires as domestic terrorism. What's worse, they've decided to gear their concerns about some books of boys and girls.

An example.

Yep I do remember that event. When I was using my IPTV trial I tuned into Antena 3 and they talked about that thing. Seriously ? Sorry to say that but I think your govt. is corrupted (no offense)

I walked about a mile in the storm. I have a hotel. It was kind of sketchy, and the winds were kinda scary. I got blown over but I'm at a hotel. Neighbor called to tell me the water is coming in houses again on my street. I don't care though. I'm safe, have a room booked, and they ALLOW PETS FOR FREE! Gonna get my Dog back if possible tomorrow via my uncle.

That's some really good news that they allow pets for free and that you got a place too sleep. Hopefully it all ends soon and your live gets normal again

Sad to see my puppy go, but he's probably in safer hands than anyone else. Next step is to get somewhere to stay after this shelter (there's gonna be thousands there...)...I really don't like going without him. Don't see why pets are so unallowed...
Generally the pets are under alot of stress, they don't want the pet biting someone, maybe kids try to pet it or something and the animal gets scared or reliving its self on the floor in the building which causes sanitary problems.

My dad is the happiest one of all to be in this hotel. He saw they had a little free snack center, and came back with 10 bags of chips and candy. He's so excited!

It's really nice to be able to just finally relax honestly. My dad keeps piling up chip bags and I'm laughing, and it feels normal.
