Hey yal!

Buy an E-gift card! https://squareup.com/gift/5PG3QSK7F2FG6/order
Venmo @hearthsidecc
PayPal https://paypal.me/hearthsideshop
Interact with and share our posts on social media at https://www.facebook.com/hearthsideshop
GoFundMe https://www.gofundme.com/f/help-hearthside-candles (GoFundMe really is a last resort because of their fees and how long it taskes to process everything before they even send any funds)
Seriously cannot overstate how important this place is to me and a lot of people in the witchy and pagan community.
Any help you can throw their way is deeply, deeply appreciated!

"These workers are part of a new economy of exploitation: Migrant children, who have been coming into the United States without their parents in record numbers, are ending up in some of the most punishing jobs in the country, a New York Times investigation found. This shadow work force extends across industries in every state, flouting child labor laws that have been in place for nearly a century. Twelve-year-old roofers in Florida and Tennessee. Underage slaughterhouse workers in Delaware, Mississippi and North Carolina. Children sawing planks of wood on overnight shifts in South Dakota."
"Largely from Central America, the children are driven by economic desperation that was worsened by the pandemic. This labor force has been slowly growing for almost a decade, but it has exploded since 2021, while the systems meant to protect children have broken down."
[...]✂️
️"In town after town, children scrub dishes late at night. They run milking machines in Vermont and deliver meals in New York City. They harvest coffee and build lava rock walls around vacation homes in Hawaii. Girls as young as 13 wash hotel sheets in Virginia."
[…]✂️
"These are not children who have stolen into the country undetected. The federal government knows they are in the United States, and the Department of Health and Human Services is responsible for ensuring sponsors will support them and protect them from trafficking or exploitation."
"But as more and more children have arrived, the Biden White House has ramped up demands on staffers to move the children quickly out of shelters and release them to adults. Caseworkers say they rush through vetting sponsors."
[…]✂️
"Far from home, many of these children are under intense pressure to earn money. They send cash back to their families while often being in debt to their sponsors for smuggling fees, rent and living expenses."
"Sponsors are required to send migrant children to school, and some students juggle classes and heavy workloads. Other children arrive to find that they have been misled by their sponsors and will not be enrolled in school."
[…]✂️
"Now, just a third of migrant children are going to their parents. A majority are sent to other relatives, acquaintances or even strangers, a Times analysis of federal data showed. Nearly half are coming from Guatemala, where poverty is fueling a wave of migration. Parents know that they would be turned away at the border or quickly deported, so they send their children in hopes that remittances will come back."
"In the last two years alone, more than 250,000 children have entered the United States by themselves."
"The shifting dynamics in Central America helped create a political crisis early in Mr. Biden’s presidency, when children started crossing the border faster than H.H.S. could process them. With no room left in shelters, the children stayed in jail-like facilities run by Customs and Border Protection and, later, in tent cities. The images of children sleeping on gym mats under foil blankets attracted intense media attention."
[…]✂️
"While many migrant children are sent to the United States by their parents, others are persuaded to come by adults who plan to profit from their labor."
[…]✂️
"Unlike the foster care system, in which all children get case management, H.H.S. provides this service to about a third of children who pass through its care, and usually for just four months. Tens of thousands of other children are sent to their sponsors with little but the phone number for a national hotline. From there, they are often on their own: There is no formal follow-up from any federal or local agencies to ensure that sponsors are not putting children to work illegally."
[…]✂️
"Many sponsors see themselves as benevolent, doing a friend or neighbor a favor by agreeing to help a child get out of a government shelter, even if they do not intend to offer any support. Children often understand that they will have to work, but do not grasp the unrelenting grind that awaits them."
[…]✂️
"Underage workers in Grand Rapids said that spicy dust from immense batches of Flamin’ Hot Cheetos made their lungs sting, and that moving heavy pallets of cereal all night made their backs ache. They worried about their hands getting caught in conveyor belts, which federal law classifies as so hazardous that no child Carolina’s age is permitted to work with them."
[…]✂️
"Federal law bars minors from a long list of dangerous jobs, including roofing, meat processing and commercial baking. Except on farms, children younger than 16 are not supposed to work for more than three hours or after 7 p.m. on school days."
"But these jobs — which are grueling and poorly paid, and thus chronically short-staffed — are exactly where many migrant children are ending up. Adolescents are twice as likely as adults to be seriously injured at work, yet recently arrived preteens and teenagers are running industrial dough mixers, driving massive earthmovers and burning their hands on hot tar as they lay down roofing shingles, The Times found."
"Unaccompanied minors have had their legs torn off in factories and their spines shattered on construction sites, but most of these injuries go uncounted. The Labor Department tracks the deaths of foreign-born child workers but no longer makes them public. Reviewing state and federal safety records and public reports, The Times found a dozen cases of young migrant workers killed since 2017, the last year the Labor Department reported any."
"The deaths include a 14-year-old food delivery worker who was hit by a car while on his bike at a Brooklyn intersection; a 16-year-old who was crushed under a 35-ton tractor-scraper outside Atlanta; and a 15-year-old who fell 50 feet from a roof in Alabama where he was laying down shingles."
[…]✂️
"The Labor Department is supposed to find and punish child labor violations, but inspectors in a dozen states said their understaffed offices could barely respond to complaints, much less open original investigations. When the department has responded to tips on migrant children, it has focused on the outside contractors and staffing agencies that usually employ them, not the corporations where they perform the work."

A Witchcraft by the Hearthside day with @malliwaybros Such a good time and I learned so much. Really great discussions about winter folklore, spirits of the winter landscape and then made our own witch’s ladder charged by a end of the night ritual. I love smaller groups and discussions like this. The witchy cottage vibes were off the chart. #witchcraft #witchyvibes #hearthside #friends https://www.instagram.com/p/Co-oS72OuZI/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

it's so insane that in a hearthside chat they reference how murph was currently wearing a pair of athletic shorts OVER a pair of pants and emily so casually goes "i make fun of him but he does this all the time because his pants with good pockets are in the wash"
#like ?????#for reference this is from the hearthside chat q&a: mechanics memories and saying thanks#but LIKE ?? murph WHAT#pants over pants just like around the house ????? JUST for the pockets ???? just put something in your waistband ?? also like#why do you need pockets so bad when you are just around the house#it shocked me to my core and they didn't even raz him that much they were like yeah he does that#naddpod#brian murphy

Hey, I'd like to move Badou Nails' (DOGS: Bullets and Carnage) housing. Current housing is Seaside Province 203, and he'll be moving to the Echo owned housing claimed by Legato Bluesummers of Trigun Maximum. Today's 6/4, and I hope I did this right. Thank you!!!
You relinquish your OLD HOUSE KEY to 203, SEASIDE PROVINCE in exchange for A NEW KEY. The receptionist at CITY HALL gives your permit one last once-over before signing and dating it.
"Oh goodness! There are so many moves happening today! Well, it'll certainly help with the rent. HAHA I'm just kidding, but seriously though, hope you all settle in well together."
Congrats! Your muse, BADOU NAILS, now has MOVED HOUSE. You can find your housing listed under HEARTHSIDE DWELLINGS on the Aevum Isles Map, or on the CUSTOM HOUSING PAGE.
You receive the following:
A House Key. Emblazoned upon it is: Legato Bluesummer's House.
— 🏵️ Creo
