As some of you may know fellow dogblr @arlo-venn has really had a rough go of things these past few years.

So in effort to help I am hosting a raffle. I have recently begun selling homemade dog treats through the training facility I work at and have had rave reviews.

The treats are dehydrated chicken breast and dehydrated beef hearts. Nothing else added. I started making these for myself because I wanted small, high value treats that wouldn't leave stink or residue on my hands.

Every dollar donated equals one ticket. On April 27th, 2024 I will draw a random winner who can choose either the 5oz dehydrated chicken breast bag or the 4.5oz dehydrated beef hearts bag. I will ship the bag to the winner at my own cost. For this reason I am limiting it to folks shipping within the continental US.

I'm upstate at the moment so don't have pictures on hand but will add some when I get back home. I'd wait but I want to get donations rolling in sooner rather than later.

To enter make a donation to any of the following:

Venmo: @remywolfe

CashApp: $remywolfe

PayPal: [email protected] or paypal.me/wolfstephollow

ApplePay: 4805199559

kofi: ko-fi.com/remywolfe

Then send a screenshot to [email protected]. Every dollar is one raffle ticket so a $5 donation gets you five tickets.

If donations exceed $50 before April 26th, 2024 I will add a second winner. If donations exceed $100 I'll add a second treat bag of choice to the first winner as well as a third winner.

All donations go directly to @arlo-venn.

Even if you're not interested in the treats, I'd really appreciate reblogs so we can generate some much needed help.

Thank you!

i started a patreon

hi, i'm autumn, aka lalalychee. i am a call center representative by day, and a photorealism painter by night. here's one of my paintings:

neither my day job or painting are things i am able to do as much as i'd like due to being physically disabled with stage 3 CRPS and a connective tissue disease. my health has resulted in a constant stream of medical bills that i frankly cannot afford on top of my regular bills, and i need help. my patreon is a way for you to chip in anything at all to help me get by. things have gotten so hard. in return, i will post kinda whatever you want, i guess! painting works-in-progress, makeup tutorials, life updates, i dunno! let me know what you want to see and i will do my very best to earn my keep. i just want to stay afloat financially without feeling like i'm going to puke every time i get a medical bill. i currently see 4 specialists in addition to my family doctor and i feel like i'm drowning.

please consider helping out

Hi uh I started a GoFundMe for myself.

https://gofund.me/001e1417

My paypal is dragongard87 @ gmail . com

Long story short for the last 2 years I've been trying to build a house.

I'm generationally and personally poor. I make roughly $36,000 and that's if I'm allowed to work the full year since I'm a temporary seasonal employee.

The last contractor I had working on it for 1 and 1/2 years lied to me, wasted materials, was inexperienced and didn't let me know when things got bad. I'm pursuing legal action but it's expensive and time consuming.

I've been living in my car since April to try and make this work. Not only were his mistakes wasted time and effort but it was a lot of wasted money I wasn't expecting. I started working with a second contractor and he's been great so far but gave me an estimate of redoing the foundation. It ended up being double the price by the end and he didn't give me a heads up towards the end.

That's the general situation. I hate doing this, I know it's towards the end of the year and Christmas so people are pretty tapped out for money. I'm at the lowest point I could be and please know I wouldn't ask if I wasn't desperate. I already took out a personal loan and have 2 jobs, my family is poor and can't help.

Any help or sharing of this is greatly appreciated. Likes are honestly appreciated too and at least I know I'm not shouting into the great expanse. Thank you for taking the time to read this and I hope everyone has a good end of year/new year.

Hey everyone, it's Autism Acceptance Month

Meaning

Time to take down Autism Speaks

A man called David Page started this on Tiktok. His autistic son took his life, and due to that he wants to make a change, he wants to shut down the organisation Autism Speaks.

Why?

Only around ONE PERCENT of Autism Speaks' revenue goes to helping autistic people and their families.

Autism speaks supports eugenics. They want to cure or get rid of autism. Autism can't be cured, it should be accepted and accommodated.

The majority of the people working there are not autisic.

They spread misinformation and stigma that autistic people should be feared and that they ruin families.

Autism speaks silences real autistic voices

How do we shut them down?*

Call Autism Speaks' phones lines as much as you can this month and keep them busy, so that less donations go through.

Keep their website open this month to overwhelm the server.

Use the #autismspeaks on every social media for random spam, so that its harder for their content to be found.

Live stream! Post! Share other posts! Talk about why Autism Speaks is harmful! Be loud and our voices will be heard.

*I'm using the suggestions from David Page's videos

Go follow David Page!! I found him on tiktok. Share his videos on other socials.

Hey, guys, I'm sorry to still be here asking for help, but I'm at $690/$5000, and I'm going to have to try and hope someone calls me back about the apartments I looked at in the last few days, or somewhere like a hotel room to stay in until I find a new apartment, one that accepts pets. (My oldest daughter is autistic, and my youngest has a seizure disorder so staying at a homeless shelter is something I'd like to avoid if at all possible)

If anyone can donate, I would really appreciate it and if not, please reblog this - thank you ♥️♥️♥️♥️

Help a disabled trans person get back on their feet

Forcing myself to ask for help. It's really hard for me to do this cause I always feel like I've already asked way too much, but a few kind folks have suggested I do something like this, so I guess here goes nothing.

For more info about what's going on you can check out this post, but the tl;dr is that I'm flat fucking broke right now with no way to get extra income. A lot of my stuff is super old or super broken and at the point where I need replacements that I cannot afford.

So I guess here's a list of stuff, and general prices, though if anyone has better recommendations I'm super open. I'm limiting it to things I actively need rather than just things I want cause that obviously doesn't seem fair to ask folks for.

Bedding: at this point all my pillows are so old they are actively yellowing. My comforter is pretty stained and starting to tear up at the seams and whenever I come home from doing one of my dog sitting jobs I've noticed how much worse my allergies are. Fixing this will drastically help my lungs and sinuses, as well as help with joint support/comfort.

Allergy safe pillows: Usually between 8$-15$ x 2 at least, 4 preferred (joint support)

Cooling comforter: [link] 35$ plus shipping

Allergy safe mattress cover: Most I can find are between 30-50$

Cooling mattress pad: [link] 43$ plus shipping

Med support: This part is pretty self explanatory as to why I need them. But just in case you'd like to know; I have Ehlers Danlos Syndrome, fibromyalgia, chrons/ibs, asthma, pretty bad environmental allergies, as well as being recently diagnosed with ADHD/Autism. This leads to near constant pain, always constant fatigue, and just general bad vibes y'know? My body is essentially a poorly constructed ball joint doll that thinks it's funny to just sprinkle on the symptoms.

This one is just way easier to do as a wishlist, cause there's a LOT of things that could help and a lot of them are very expensive.

Work: I work as a digital artist, and the biggest thing I'm saving up for right now is a functioning PC, as my current computer continues to crash and is plagued with a whole lot of troubles and has never really had enough RAM to do what I need. Thanks to the incredible people in my life I have a little towards this already, as well as a big discount through one of my friend's jobs. The build that my tech buds and I worked out would suit my needs and keep me going for a good decade or so is about 1,400$. I've got 500$ towards it already that I refuse to touch for anything else (if it's not life threatening), and I'm trying my best to save up on the side, but bills and life keep making that very hard.

I've got Paypal, Venmo (just ask for QR), and Ko-fi.

I also do commissions but those are quite slow going right now because of all the aforementioned problems. But if you don't mind waiting a while (trying to catch up on older ones right now) you sure can put an order in.

If you are able to help, I cannot express how much that would mean to me. But I also completely understand if you can't. It's tough out there. Especially right now with everything going on. In any case, I wish you all the best, and thank you heartily for reading and sharing.

I'm hoping some people will be able to reblog this to get some wider spread contribution, but I understand if it isn't your thing.

For many, many people gift giving season is upon us and I'm sure many of us have seen lists of companies with ties to Israel/that are actively supporting Israel with the intention of boycotting. Which I think is all well and good, but it would be nice to see lists of companies that we can lend our support to. Companies that support Palestine, companies that are run by Palestinians, muslim led companies, and also companies that are run by non-zionist jewish folk because they don't deserve to be met with antisemitism from people equating Judaism and the Israeli Government as the same thing.

I don't think it's enough to just say oh hey let's boycott these huge, often very popular, companies because sometimes that can be difficult to accomplish with how widespread they are. I think more people need to pour energy (where they can) into spending their money with companies they believe in.

All of this is a very long winded way of saying I truly hope that as a community we can come up with a list of these companies to share, as my knowledge is extremely limited. Therefore, if you have a company to share/nominate please reblog and add :)

Fiber Arts Community Question:

I am looking into selling some of the hats I have made just to declutter...where do you guys recommend I sell from? I have tried etsy before, so I am not opposed to using it again, but I don't intend to sell them for much (maybe 10-15 dollars?) and I know etsy takes a pretty big cut from sales.

Any recommendations?

If you have gotten an ask from this user...

I'm sorry to tell you, but it is A SCAM.

This person sent me an ask about her sick cat out of the blue and then immediately followed me. The post on her blog looks very convincing, a vet bill with her same name as the PayPal and everything, even showing crochet plushies offered in exchange for support.

However, a quick Google Image search for a picture of the plushes in question returns an identical photo on another person's (better corroborated) sick cat post from October of this year.

Furthermore, the blog header implies that this is a multifandom blog and lists a small handful of popular ones, like Good Omens and The Lord of the Rings.

However... There's no such content on this blog with even a cursory glance. It was made super recently and has a super shallow archive, just a really incoherent jumble of popular posts unrelated to any of these fandoms, and is mostly just self-reblogs of the sick cat post.

I feel bad reacting doubtfully to such a tragic story, but like... this person's stolen someone else's real struggle and is using it to scam kindhearted folks like us. I've been scammed by posts like this before, and I don't regret trusting enough to believe and want to help, but I do regret not doing my homework.

Always do digging, especially when contacted by a blog you've never seen before, and back-search any distinctive-looking images to see if they've been stolen. Block this person and spread it around that they're deceiving others.

#cat support #catblr #help a cat #please send help #community help #aid request #cats #crochet #plushies #fundraising #goes without saying but don't harass this person either #OR op of the original crochet post they seem legit #just spread this around so nobody else gets duped

Urgent: help needed asap for medication

A very dear friend of mine who is practically my dad is in urgent need of funds for medication. He's an elder queer, in his 40s, who lives in Texas. I've known him for three years now and he's one of my closest friends.

He has schizophrenia and epilepsy, as well as a couple other conditions. He is on disability and lives in low income housing. For obvious reasons, he's unable to work.

A couple months ago, one of his copayments for his life saving medication increased from around $10 to around $200. He can't afford this. He's been rationing food and medication to try to get by, which isn't working. He's hungry and is in danger of being committed due to his mental health. He can't afford that either. He's already sold everything he can and now lives with the bare bones of necessities. He panhandles when the weather permits it.

I send him money when I can, but I earn way below the poverty level and my partner is also on disability. His parents both died long ago, and he doesn't have any other family.

He only can afford half the amount of medicine he needs each month. Every month, he gets worse and worse. It's horrifying to have to watch him deteriote.

Please, if you have the ability, he could use whatever help he can get. I'm trying to convince him to let me help set up a gofundme, but in the meantime, here's his PayPal link:

Please please if you can help, he's practically my dad. I wish I could do more. If you can't donate, please reblog. This is my last ditch effort to be able to help him.

This is being posted on 11/18/22. He is in need on a monthly basis, the refill is the first of the month and his rent is due the end of the month. He needs food in between those two dates as well. Anything helps.

Hello again! House/life update.

I am in a much better place mentally but really rather the same financially. I am currently laid off for a month seasonally since I'm still not a permanent employee. I have something in the works I'm hoping plays out so that I have a permanent position and worst case scenario I go back to work May 6th as a temp for 6 more months. I have side jobs and unemployment lined up in the mean time.

Anyway though! On to the house. Disappointing news but honest news in terms of the first contractor we hired. We still haven't gotten money back from him.

Recap: my mom and I fired him because he lied to us, charged tools on our account we up front said not to do, built a shoddy excuse of a foundation and frame for my house that we eventually had to pay our current contractor to demolish because it was so bad. It was for all definitions a different house the original contractor built. He used the wrong framing type for the blueprint and didn't even use framing nails to the city code. He wasn't even on site for 90% of the build and seemingly subcontracted it out which we didn't know.

In addition my mom is...not the best person to work with and makes a lot of mistakes. She's not a critical thinker on a lot of things. I made the mistake of asking her to help me buy land and build a house in the pursuit of escaping my generational poverty. I made the second mistake of asking her to take on individual responsibilities and not step in when the red flags started coming up.

I left her in charge of getting the money back from the OG contractor since she had all contact with him and she was originally the one who found him. That went as well as anyone could guess and she's, in summary, procrastinated doing any proper paperwork for attorneys or the contract board. I keep pushing her and she always says she'll get to it this day or that day or hits a dead end and then it goes nowhere.

This would not be a big issue but we're talking more than $20,000 he did in damages and $1,000 he directly stole from us like straight up $1,000 we handed him to do work he never did. The donations everyone has been sending in slowly are very much appreciated and remind me to keep fighting for this.

At this point I just want to get the house done so I can be done with the contractors and done with my mother. I don't want to be in this situation anymore and it's been dragged out for 3 years now. I've added pictures of where the house is at now and most of it having been done in January and February.

As the electric was finished and passed inspection I'm waiting in the HVAC and plumbing as the last things professionals must do before I can finish the house. I've started putting in flooring and the wood stove was just delivered so things are still moving.

The donations haven't covered anything large from the build but it has covered smaller things (I've used it for nails, locks for the doors, etc.) and given me strength to continue. Motivation from strangers, acquaintances and friends to not just walk away and to keep my head in the right space. I've emotionally and mentally been in a better place since I initially made the gofundme which has helped.

Anyway I've been meaning to make this for awhile and I'm sorry for the delay. I've been working my full time job before I was laid off, my side gigs, working on the house, still living out of my car and trying to work with my mother. I appreciate everyone who's been invested in this, shared it and donated. More updates will come in the future and thank you all again.

Help this sweet girl and her family!

Hey there, we’ve never really done this before, but im reaching out to the community on behalf of my best friend alexis. she’s been through some really tough times this past year, but despite everything she started a new career as a tattoo artist and has been working hard to save up money.

Ive known alexis for almost 12 years, she has the biggest heart and is also an animal lover. She and her family have taken in several stray cats, caring for them and providing for their needs despite not having much money.

Recently Tobi, the kitty pictured above, was diagnosed with lymphoma. Only 3 years old, she is absolutely adored by the family and this has been a hard hit. the testing and ultrasounds alone have already amounted to over $3000, and although lymphoma is treatable in cats, the treatment will likely be very expensive, and her family is struggling to find the funds.

I know it’s hard right now, but if anyone has some money to spare, it would mean a lot to me if you could help my best friend. all funds will go toward covering Tobi’s vet bills and helping Alexis get back on her feet after having her savings wiped out by these unexpected expenses. If you have questions please feel free to message me. Thanks in advance ❤️
