HELP A MEXICAN FAMILY SURVIVE ANOTHER MONTH!

Hola, I'm Calli, a mexican trans nonbinary parent, both me and my partner are chronically ill, suffer from chronic pain and have to navigate life with our disabilities almost without any aids, just recently we were able to get him a cane. This has left us unemployed, you can imagine without any special talents or degrees it's been impossible to find stable jobs.

We also take care of my in-laws, who are elderly, chronically ill and disabled.

I'm ashamed to admit that mutual aid has been our main source of income with our declining health. This has made us target for harassment and fucked our opportunities of keeping our family fed.

Right now our biggest priority is help our son get testosterone every week until his next appointment on July.

A friend has offered to help us raise funds to keep us afloat if you're interested in art commissions.

Our last post we got accused of being a bot even tho I've had my blog since 2013

My oldest post in my archive

All the shit keeps that keeps piling on

**I can offer links to comments and interactions I've had in tumblr as far as 2014**

We've been living in this moldy house which is also falling apart for the past 8 years, some of us have already been irreversible affected by the mold, but we can't move anywhere that can tolerate a family with 3 trans people and a couple with kids who refuse to marry.

PAYPAL KOFI

*this isn't counting a mattress or cellphone. Seriously none of us can take sleeping on the floor, it's been real damaging

“Incurious” is an incredible thing to call someone. It conveys so much with so little. To be incurious is to be so uninterested with learning or developing an understanding that it’s damning. It is to fail to feel what a toddler does by instinct.

I sometimes go back to the Dan Olson video about Doug Walker and there’s a bit where he says “Doug wants to be a filmmaker, he wants to make art, but he can't, because he's a fundamentally incurious person who isn't much interested in what other people think or feel and all his ideas boil down to ‘what if Batman met Mario?’” and I know that if this was said about most artists I have met they would wither up on the spot like a dying spider

you may be thinking that some of the reactions to the tumblr update are unfounded or panicky. but i meant what i said: this will fucking destroy any artist on this site.

for your reference, i tracked down one of my original posts; which had a notes section that looked like this:

and here is what it looks like now:

holy shit. by my math, that is not even two percent of the amount of aggregate notes my writing actually has. i am not able to see any of the literal hundreds of replies, comments, or tags.

maybe this is a bit presumptuous but i consider myself to be fairly popular on this site. i still remember the first time a large blog "picked up" my work - how quickly all of a sudden i was getting seen. notes on my poetry jumped from like 10 to 300 to 3k. overnight. that was the magic of tumblr, and the incredible writing community i found here.

but now if i answer any of my fellow writers, if i say please go check this out or even if i add additional context to my own work - the artist is removed completely from their own content.

do you want to reply to an "ask game"? do you want to reply to a story prompt? do you want to just make a funny joke with your friends? well, that sucks - you might be depriving them of literally 98% of their notes.

it isn't about clout chasing. it is about giving creators control over their own materials. even a silly post deserves to be connected directly with the person that thought it up.

the tumblr feedback form is currently crashed for me, but when it's up, everyone please go (politely! calmly! like you're walking in a burning building!) tell them what you think. in the meantime: @staff @changes like... i am begging you. literally just set up a suggestion box for ideas on how to monetize tumblr, surely one of us can help you.
