Mutual Aid + Call For Help
Someone advised me to make a separate post and focus. I'm lacking a safety net currently because of government shenanigans. Please help if you can.
[Edited for clarity. OG was written during anxiety attack.]
I need help surviving this month. Whether it's a gift card for the supermarket or Lyft for us to get there. I'd take all help at this point. Or if you know any resources I can get in Virginia. I've looked. The good food pantry would be $80 roughly to get there and back in a Lyft. The meal programs are only for seniors and/or disabled people who live alone (even though I’m disabled, I don’t qualify).
There is a Kroger’s within 30 mins walking distance I could send my son and brother to, but their prices be high as fuck trying to feed 4 people on one SNAP benefit that's already reduced because of SSI. Transportation is a foil. Technically we get 3 community trips every three months in the year, so usually we have to commit to going somewhere. But also, not a lot of money to spend. IDK, right now I'm just overwhelmed and stressed out. I haven't financially recovered from last year and this year is shaping up to be the same, only I'll hit my limit on both credit cards this time.
If anyone can help a black disabled queer person, I'd appreciate it so much.
I have a Cashapp $Acepeets
But please send a DM for Venmo/Paypal. Gift cards for Lyft or Kroger's/Food Lion/Walmart would help, too.

In honor of the 2023 TFATWS Anniversary Event, below is a list of AU SamBucky fic recs for your enjoyment!
you’re my river running high (run deep, run wild) by notcaycepollard
M | 9.9k | nwa | shapeshifter AU
The third day after SHIELD falls, Sam finds a crow with a broken wing on his doorstep.
What My Hands And Body Done by Fool_for_love
NR | 10.3k | ccntw | soulmates AU
Bucky had resigned himself to a life without a soulmate. After Steve, he didn’t really want another one. Even though Steve had moved on with Peggy, Bucky didn’t see himself doing the same.
After all, if the damage done by Hydra had been enough to scare off Steve, make their soulmarks fade, how the hell was someone else supposed to accept him? Who would even want to?
The universe seemed to think Sam might want to. Bucky disagreed. He and Sam tolerated each other. Sam was funny, sure, loyal, definitely, attractive, no doubt. But none of that screamed soulmate… right?
Ye Cannae Change The Laws Of Attraction by velvetjinx
E | 3.9k | nwa | star trek AU
There’s a lot of friction–in more ways than one–between First Officer Bucky Barnes and Chief Science Officer Sam Wilson of the USS Avenger. But in space, things can change in a heartbeat.
we’re awesome, totally genius by napricot
T | 3.9k | nwa | meet-cute, no powers AU
At this point, Sam’s scanning the coffeeshop for an exit strategy from this terrible date; maybe he can trip a customer into spilling coffee on one of them, or pretend like he’s seen a friend, something, anything. His eye lands on the white guy sitting at the table behind Mike, directly in Sam’s line of sight, but not visible to Mike himself. And okay, hello, stranger. He’s gorgeous, and he’s looking up from the stack of papers on his table, right at Sam. Hot Stranger’s thick-lashed blue eyes are wide, and a pen is dangling from his fingers as if the nonsense happening at Sam’s table has shocked him into interrupting his work.
What the fuck, mouths Hot Stranger.
Sam’s on a first date that starts weird and only gets weirder. Thankfully, there’s a hot bystander who’s ready to be a hero and save Sam from the horrors of app-based dating.
A Chance by Siancore
E | 20.8k | ccntw | social media AU
Bucky Barnes is a Fuckboy. He exhibits Fuckboy Behavior. Everyone knows it. Especially his best friend, Steve Rogers. Then, one day, he sees one of Steve’s social media post with a gorgeous guy named Sam Wilson. Steve’s friend is hot and Bucky’s interested, but the dude is still Steve’s friend. Can Bucky quit his Fuckboy ways to have chance with Sam? Dad Friend Steve doesn’t think it’s such a good idea that they hook up because he doesn’t think Bucky can or wants to change, and more importantly, Steve doesn’t want to see Sam get hurt. Can Bucky change his ways and prove Steve wrong or is the whole thing a disaster waiting to happen?
Not Like I’m Counting the Days by yammz
E | 13.9k | nwa | civilian!bucky/cap!sam AU
Sam takes a deep breath, then nods, and Bucky feels like he just stumbled upon the combination for a lock that he hadn’t known was there. Sam nods as though he’s making the decision right then and there that this is happening, that they’re actually going to hook up instead of just talking about it. Maybe he is actually making that decision right then. He looks Bucky in the eyes. “Tomorrow, I’m being named Captain America.”
(The one where Bucky starts casually dating Captain America)
Sports AU by funsized-loser
M | 1.1k | baseball AU
Bottom of the 8th inning, runners on 2nd and 3rd with 2 outs; the Avengers have a 1-0 lead over the Hydras
The Valk’bhòid by eden22
E | 20.2k | nwa | medieval AU
Uneasy is the head that wears a crown.
The First Gentleman by glittercake
M | 55.7k | gdv | first gentleman!sam/bodyguard!bucky AU
Sam knew what he was signing up for when he married a senator running for Office. He knew what Riley’s job demanded. He knew the hours, the stress, the milling, and the perpetual buzz. Living his life constantly surrounded by everything, by an entire nation.
But he had always dreamed of a quiet life. A place in the country with the man he loves, acres of greenery and trees, and flowers around them. A long winding road they could drive down on a warm Sunday afternoon. A big old farmhouse with a wraparound porch and a French kitchen. Some horses and a stable, and a little creek covered with a blanket of mist in the mornings.
He gets what he wants in the most horrible of ways.
Any Port in a Storm by swiftrax (wildtrak) for GodsDoggy
E | 9.4k | nwa | abo AU
Sam is the first to admit that he and Bucky have got issues. It would be fine if they could just ignore each others’ existence and didn’t keep getting paired up on missions… but the universe (and Steve Rogers) isn’t going to let them off the hook that easy. Being an Avenger means sucking it up and pretending they can both be professionals to get the job done.
When a mission goes awry in the middle of the ocean, Bucky and Sam are forced to take shelter in a remote lighthouse as a storm rolls in.
Can they survive each other long enough to be rescued, or will their interpersonal friction come to a head…
there’s a war inside of me by CapnWinghead
T | 5.5k | nwa | multiverse AU
When a portal drops another version of Bucky Barnes into their universe, Sam’s adamant about helping her. Bucky’s a lot less welcoming.
The Way Out Is Through by samwontshare (Attaining)
E | 12k | gdv | zombie apocalypse AU
Sam and Bucky’s love story in Wakanda is interrupted when Sam contracts a virus that makes him crave human flesh. Bucky will do anything to keep him safe. And fed.
Instead of The Blip, Thanos’ minions brought the zombie apocalypse.
more TFATWS anniversary themed fic rec lists to come!
