aww diddums, did you have to suffer the consequences of your actions? poor baby, maybe if you didn’t fire over 3500 of your employee’s you’d have more time to be an edgelord

it's my birthdaaaaayyyyy week. I turn 34 on Wednesday! somehow even tho my entire 30s have happened during the pandemic (😅😬🫠) they have still been so much better than my entire twenties lmaooooo. I spent most of my life not even expecting to get thru my twenties so getting into my mid 30s feels like a minor miracle 💫 anyway I'm trying to plan some fun stuff for this week / month and money is, as always, as for everyone, pretty tight. if you'd like throw this dog a birthday bone, I'd be so deeply grateful 💚

Hi everyone! I'm asking for just a little bit of help. In 2 weeks I'm moving to New Orleans to start a new chapter in my life. I need all the help I can get financially to get me there. I have a lot of toiletries and food items I need to purchase. My journey from where I live to there is 12 hours, so help with gas would also be useful. Every little bit helps. I'm moving away to attend grad school and build a better life for myself. This is scary for me, so even some kind words would help me get through this. I don't have a financial goal I'm trying to meet or anything, just looking for a tad bit of financial support.

Thank you ❤

"But if college was free, then people would abuse that and get useless degrees" hell yeah I would! If I could go to college without debt I would make it my job to get a degree in every little thing that interested me. I'd get a doctorate in film studies. I'd have a bachelor's degree for every science I like. I'd try to learn at least 5 languages with varying results. I would learn something "useful" like coding and then follow it up with a ""useless"" degree like art history. I'd be the world record speed run holder for getting every degree possible.

But I can't afford college without going into massive debt, so instead I spent the last 5 years trying to figure out what I am passionate enough about to consider going into debt over, because unfortunately being passionate about everything is extremely expensive to pursue.

also don't let ur friends/society/tumblr posts/whatever convince u to start smoking or drinking or whatever if u don't want to. there are health risks there are social and financial aspects to consider and it's totally fine and normal to not want to. there's no moral aspect to it you can drink and do drugs or whatever if u want and that's chill but u should know what ur doing and do research and if u decide u dont want to that's chill and anyone who tries to shame u for it can go fuck themselves

consider helping a homeless + disabled trans lesbian seek shelter this winter

my friend harmony was kicked out of her abusive + transphobic parents' house last month for being trans . she was able to stay with someone for a week before she was once again , kicked out for being trans . the person who let her stay has a partner who was extremely transphobic towards harmony and forced her to leave . she is once again without a place to sleep .

she has a few job interviews set up but needs help until she has a source of income . per her request , she has asked for money for hotel rooms , food , gas , and at the very least , a good winter jacket and a blanket if she has to sleep in her car . if you can , consider helping her by sending a few dollars her way , i'm extremely worried about her and it's been dropping to below freezing temperatures .

Emergency Donation

Hey everyone, I'm making this my pinned post. My roommate just gave me an ultimatum in regards to paying off the back payments of what I owe for rent. I'm looking for $1,263.21 USD by March 31.

Please help me if you can. I don't have anywhere else to go at the moment and I'm afraid of losing the only place I have to live. I'm disabled, queer, I have two cats and I've been unemployed since August. Any amount will help but if you can't donate please reblog this so it gets seen. Thank you.

hi everyone how are we doing i'll go first i'm doing Bad :)

haikyuu is NOT realistic!!!! and it's not because of the underdog plotline or the insane athletic skill or funky character designs but because in the timeskip everyone gets a job that they are perfectly content with and more or less suits them to a tee and don't seem concerned for their futures whatsoever all before the age of thirty

That viral post that's going around about how people who write "book quality" mlm fic are too "normal" to publish and have real jobs so only "weird" people publish their "shitty" fanfic is so completely out of touch with reality and I am giving a massive side eye to everyone reblogging it.

Not only is it completely, easily verifiably untrue (you cannot enter any professional writing space without tripping over a dozen grizzled scifi writers who got their start by filing off the serial numbers and publishing their Star Trek fanfic even going back decades ago??? it's a whole thing?? plus how can you look at the mlm category on Amazon right now and say with a straight face that people aren't publishing shitty Spirk and Stucky fanfic??? Oh, honey...) it's also the perfect example of this kind of sneering elitism that true artists would never sully themselves by seeking profit, they do it only for the purity of the thing that always somehow leads back to, "no one should be paid to make art, actually."

The only reason you're seeing more published fanfic right now has nothing to do with the idealistic purity of your hypothetical government employee written smut of the past vs the debased scribbles of those awful straights of today and everything to do with the fact that a) self-publishing has created a voracious readership that wants a ton of content so it's become a viable, flexible income stream for many, especially disabled people b) anyone can publish now with self-publishing tools so there are less gatekeepers and c) lockdown got a lot of people into fandom and therefore writing who never tried it before.

And if you really think there's no "shitty" published mlm and no "book-quality" m/f writing out there that started as fanfic, then you are clearly not a reader so why are you even talking about this?

She's doing her best, okay?

Loosely inspired by that one scene from Friends.
