The director of cybersecurity from the Electronic Freedom Foundation is offering to help women who have been threatened with compromise of their devices.
What if sealand acts like america (ex; his smile, annoying England, his body language, his want to have fun) in-order to be noticed and to avoid being abandoned again.

Lyrics by @ajlenoire and @kiwi
You have invented a new kind of hurting,
A damage you can never undo, kind of hurting
An open up and let out tears, kind of hurting
I'm not even sure you thought it through! Kind of hurting
what have i done
An easier way to tell the difference is through the literal meanings of "kita" and "sa'yo"
"Kita" means 'you' and "sa'yo" means something like 'to you'
This means that "Isinusampa kita" means "I curse you" and "I sinusampa sa'yo" means "I gravely promise to you"
But don't completely take my word, I didn't ask my parents (they're the native speakers)
Edit: DANG WROTE IT WRONG
SUMPA can have two meanings depending on moral purpose.
It can mean CURSE or GRAVE PROMISE.
"Isinusumpa ko" can mean "I curse" or "I gravely promise". It depends on the context, but putting different nouns can distinguish them.
Isinusumpa kita - means I curse you.
Isinusumpa ko sa'yo - means I gravely promise you.
Why would I say 'gravely promise' instead of just 'promise'?
The things is, using SUMPA for promise means you are definitely taking this promise seriously that you are willing to die for it.
There's a lighter and more casual way to say promise: Pangako.

English is weird but can be beautiful.
"'You are kind' he told me" somehow hits differently to "He told me 'You are kind'". It's weird but so cool!
So I’ll cut to the chase on this since a lot of people are dying, drowning, and screaming for help in Cagayan and Isabela, Philippines. A lot of them have also been stranded and are standing on their rooftops as we speak.
I’m here to post a collection of donation drives that I’ve gathered online. If we can’t help them physically, we can at least make sure they have monetary assistance, food and clothing once they’re evacuated.
This is how Cagayan looks, from recent photos (not mine)
TW: screams and shouts for help
DONATION DRIVES
Please feel free to add on this post for any other ways to help.
For context:
The Philippines has been hit by three consecutive typhoons this month alone: Quinta, Rolly (Goni internationally) and Ulysses. It’s been hitting nearly the same areas, which has made them even more vulnerable now that they’re still recovering from the previous typhoons. Our mountain ranges couldn’t shield us from this due to heavy quarrying and deforestation.
That said, these aren’t the only places in need of assistance. But these are the places in urgent need of help. And we’re trying to do as best as we can with what little we have.
I’ll update this post from time to time for full transparency.
