Hello my name is Abby

and ya girl needs help

As we all know, times are tough. Times have been tough round these parts specifically because I am now disabled. Last year I got diagnosed with Primary Progressive MS and have a lot of mobility issues. I am lucky enough to work from home (and am able to work at all) but all the changing expenses with my condition have added up. So much so, I owe $1200 to my community in back fees. Nor am I able to move like I wanted to a more accessible apartment.

And listen, I am not asking for y'all to break y'all's backs for a stranger on the Internet. But if you got a couple of bucks you could throw a Black queer disabled woman, it would mean the world to me.

And if not for me, do it for the cats:

They are just little babies and deserve to stay in a nice warm home.

I got to be the prettiest boygirl at the party last night, DJ-ing rocks man.

It was a nice little adult prom being run as a fundraiser for the community theatre-that I am a charter member of. I had a very good time.

I was able to get people laughing and dancing! I got to see queer couples dance together! I saw so many beautiful dresses!! The food was pretty good-apparently the alcohol was too, I don’t drink but my ginger beer was fantastic. Parties are so fun!!

(Being queer in public is so fun. I looked awesome, and so did everyone else.)

Not to talk about the watcher thing again as I’ve already kind of said my piece, but one of the most batshit insane parts of this whole unbelievable situation is that for some reason they decided that for some fucking reason the BEST time to announce this highly controversial decision was literally DAYS before they would be going on an international tour and having to face irate fans IN PERSON. Guys. What the hell. At least have the sensibility to announce a move that you HAD to have known would make people upset AFTER one of the few times you actually interact in person with your fanbase.

I hope you’re ready to investigate the Tower of London for ghosts, because I have a feeling the Londoners will be more than happy to acquaint you with the building later this week.

Insane move after insane move. Truly.

#watcher #watcher tv #as a person doing political communications literally one of the most basic rules is #‘if your boss is going to announce something controversial do NOT do it before an event where they have to interact with the public’#you bury that shit on a Friday afternoon after the weekly news cycle is over and everyone has gone home for the weekend #you don’t announce that your official stance is to kick puppies before your fundraiser at the animal shelter #did the watcher team consult anyone at all about this decision? marketing or otherwise??

my friend harmony is a disabled trans lesbian who has been homeless for almost two months now , relying solely on the kindness of strangers to make ends meet . after all this time , she’s finally caught a break – her cousin has extended an invitation to live with her and has offered to help her get a job at her place of work . this is absolutely fantastic news and i’m so so excited for harmony to get back on her feet !!

the only issue is that her cousin lives roughly 2000 miles across the country . harmony is ready to go whenever , she just needs a little more help: she’s disabled and cannot drive for super long periods of time , so she will need to stop and stay at a hotel a few times along the way ( ~$200 ) . she also needs gas to fill up her tank ( ~$250 ) and food to eat ( ~$50 ) .

all together , she only needs about $500 to make this trip . if you can spare anything at all , please send a few dollars her way ! i know we’re all struggling , so if you can’t afford to help monetarily , please boost this post !! harmony is so so close to finally being in a stable situation again . thank you for reading !!!

p-yp-l ( her only way of accepting money )

URGENT! Please Help A Homeless, Disabled & Mostly Queer Family Get Ready For Housing By Helping With Paying For Much-Needed Loans!

PAYPAL | AMAZON WISHLIST | KOFI | GOFUNDME

VENMO: @penaltywaltz | CASHAPP: $afteriwake23 | ZELLE: DM me for email address

4/29/24 - New Post

So some stuff has happened, some of the loans I listed before have been paid, and I missed a few things, so I'm making a new post!

So, we still haven't heard about Section 8, and while I'm grateful for the shelter housing and feeding us, there's been some pretty toxic activity on my floor and I'm at my wit's end. I'm not sleeping well, I have constant headaches from grinding my teeth, and my blood pressure (which is already high and I'm already on meds for it) keeps being high when I get it checked. So we need to get housing with or without the Section 8 voucher as soon as possible.

Now, I have a list of low-income apartments all over North County. While not ideal, we have also heard of a complex of studio apartments available for $1400 which give preferential treatment to shelter occupants. But the problem is that I not only have a bunch of payday loans to pay, but I also have a payment on a two-month loan, a five-month loan, a six-month loan, and a year-long loan that eat up my entire income until I at least pay off the first three. My mom only gets $1300 and my daughter isn't on disability yet. So we can't even afford the studio until October and we'll have been kicked out of the shelter long before then.

I can probably cover the remaining payday loans and this month's payment for the two-month loan and still pay for the storage units. But I need to pay off whatever I can on the other loans, and the longer I wait the more interest that compiles. So I need a lot more than I was asking for before and I need it quickly to cover at least all of this month's payments while I work on paying off the totals of the bigger loans.

This is the list of payments I need to make as it stands now:

$300 for my loan from Ace Cash Express (due by May 2nd)

$300 for my mom's loan from Ace Cash Express (due May 2nd)

$408 for my loan payment from Ascend Loans (due May 3rd)

$277 for my loan payment from Greenline Loans (due May 3rd)

$177 for my loan payment from Green Arrow Loans (due May 3rd)

$148 for my loan payment to Possible Loans (due May 3rd)

$148 for my mom's loan payment to Possible Loans (due May 3rd)

$321.80 for my mom's loan from Moneylion (due by May 15th)

$285 for my Moneytree loan (due by May 25th)

$285 for my mom's Moneytree loan (due by May 26th)

I can't make partial payments on any of these loans except the Moneylion loans my mom has. I need the full amount for the payment to pay it off early, and for the four non-payday loans, I can't make an early payment but if I can cover the payments in my bank account with donations I'm good.

The Ascend loan was for $1,000. The Greenline loan was for $500. The Green Arrow loan was for $400. The Possible loans are $300 each, coming out as two payments of $148 (one this May, one in June) per loan. So I'm going to set two goals: covering all of the above payments and then covering the bigger loans as a whole throughout the month of May.

I can't take much more of the toxicity at the shelter at the moment, though I have hopes some of it will subside if the most toxic resident on my floor leaves this week like he's threatening to, but yeah. We just need to get all this paid off and get into housing of our own, even if it's just a studio for now. I'm including the $35 I got from a GFM towards the current totals because I spent all the rest of the money I had and I still haven't gotten that donation in my account yet.

TOTAL GOAL: $47/$4850

IMMEDIATE GOAL: $47/$2650

Goal has been met! However, the car is acting up, so we have to take it to our mechanic tomorrow. I may still need some help.

September 15, 2023 - Neonazis of Australia's NSN gang tried to attack an antifascist fundraiser, for the White Rose antifascist research society and the Black People's Union, at Gummo bar in Melbourne. Armed with knives and flying a nazi sonnenrad flag they gathered in front of the bar, but they were quickly confronted and chased off by the crowd of SHARP skinheads and other antifascists attending the gig.

The knife-wielding neonazis, forced into a pathetic retreat carrying their wounded members, were beaten with mic stands and chairs as they fled down the road, with several hiding in businesses along the way, seeking the protection of staff and security members of colour so they wouldnt be beaten further by the antifascists chasing them.

How To Support People

Sometimes, when someone is struggling, we default to giving or offering what support we would want in that specific situation. We don’t mean to, but it can cause harm to someone who we are trying to help.

So what can we do instead? I would ask people: “How can I support you?” But it was often too open-ended. My loved ones didn’t know what they needed.

Mental, emotional, and physical are support types that can be used to give personalized offers for support! Sometimes, people need specific offers of support, usually a mix of types.

Mental support could be:

Facts

Wisdom

Constructive feedback

Solutions

Advice

Solutions

Resources

Mentoring

Guidance

Pros and cons

Advocacy

Reminders

Logical steps

Planning

Some examples can look like: - “I complied resources for you” - “Let’s make a support plan together” - “When I was in a similar situation, I did…”

Emotional support could be:

Validation

Venting

Commiseration

Solidarity

Affirmation

Listening

Check-ins

Distraction

Space

Comfort

Praise

Motivation

AITA?

Some examples can look like: - “Tell me what’s bothering you” - “I think it’s reasonable that you feel this way” - “You got this!” - “Do you need space?”

Physical support could be:

Housework/chores

Physical touch

Mutual aid funds

Body doubling

Acts of service

Gifts

Flowers

Food

Cards

Transportation

Some examples can look like: - “I finished your to-do list for you” - “I made you your favorite dinner” - “Let’s do this together” - “Can I make a fundraiser for this?”

We all have various needs and capacities, but I hope we can all find creative solutions to help support each other. Keep caring.

A Call for Action in the Ragbro's Community. IMPORTANT! Please read

So many of you have been sharing information, educating yourselves about what is happening in G@za , spreading donations links, and more. We have all been watching everything that is going on and how so many people are trying to currently cross the border to escape.

Many of you are aware of Operation Olive Branch and how they are helping the people in G@za.

As well as Erin Hattamer who has used her platforms to help pair content creators with families trying to raise funds to escape.

There are still a lot of families still needing help. Several are over 90% complete, but stuck at the tail end of their fundraiser. They cannot help their families get to safety without these funds

While I am not a very large content creator myself, I know that as a community the ragbros fans have a lot of voices. I'm asking everyone in this community to help me adopt Dr. Sanad Albeisi's fundraiser & spread awareness/donate to help him raise the last 10% of his goal

He volunteered at Al-Shifa Medical Hospital and helped tend to the people there His home was destroyed by the b0mbs They are currently living in a tent in the south dealing with a lack of food, poor hygiene, and diseases

Despite all of this, he has continued to keep working at hospitals in R@fah and even created a medical point that serves 16,000 people. He works around the clock serving and tending to hundreds of people a day

While he continues to help as many as he can, Dr. Sanad is losing hope. He is begging people to help however they can to help get his family to safety.

Ragbros community, please help me spread awareness about Dr. Sanad so we can help this selfless man get his family to safety. Please, spread the word about him and share the link. Donate if you can. Let's adopt him together and help him finish raising the funds he needs

This fundraiser is a part of Operation Olive Branch. It is 90% complete and just needs a bit more help to be fully funded. And while that last 10% seems daunting, if we work together we can help him reach his goal.

If anyone gives me proof that they either donated or made their own post about Dr. Sanad, his family, and fundraiser I will draw them a doodle for free.

Much love and thank you <3

It's always nice to see when the MTG community comes together to do something nice for once.

In one day, the Tolarian Community College fundraiser for Trans lifeline over TRIPLED their original goal of raising 50k. And TONS of big names in the community are adding incentive prizes to those who donate. The original lottery prize was 4 collector booster boxes, but LOADS of people have chipped in more stuff, so much so that the Prof's team had to compile a list of prizes:

And there are more prizes being added all the time.

If you want to donate, click here!
