Ways For US-Americans To Help If You're Abstaining From Voting
Can't vote on moral grounds, but still raring to do something? Stuck in America and unsure of how to meaningfully serve your community? Here are some ideas that I, a social worker serving house-bound citizens, can share out of personal experience. Feel free to add other ideas or links. We are not powerless.
Volunteer (these are just examples/sources of info)
Planned Parenthood needs volunteers for nearly every non-medical department
See if your state has a volunteer stewardship program, where you can help weed out invasive plant species and defend your natural ecosystem
If you have medical skills, become a street medic
Contribute to the preservation of Queer History
Put your labor towards the upkeep or repair of properties in Indigenous communities
Adult literacy is not great right now, and we're harder to lie to if we're literate; volunteer to help your neighbors who were failed by the school system
Resources to help the unhoused constantly need volunteer counselors, cooks, and someone to sort donations
The sick and elderly are very under-served, particularly if they're broke, so reach out to a local hospice to see what skills they need
Give (if you can't physically volunteer but have money to spare)
Donate to an abortion fund; this one is for Native peoples specifically
Donate to a book gifting program or book mobile; this link is for Dolly Parton's Imagination Library
Donate to preserve the histories of communities of color; this fund is specifically for preserving African American historical sites
Donate to protect the natural environment
Donate to help free those caged in prisons; this link is for the Innocence Project, which aims to challenge wrongful convictions
The arts are for everyone, but wealth gaps interfere; this fund is for art initiatives that contribute to community building, including increasing accessibility
Learn (resources that many communities have but aren't widely educated on)
Community Action Agencies: these are non-profits and private companies that act in service of their communities' human rights and quality of life. Many have utility funds, run food banks, manage emergency shelters, provide education and job skills opportunities, and participate in social activism.
Area Agencies on Aging: Non-profits that serve elders (and non-elderly disabled citizens) in a designated service area. They primarily offer services to prolong independent living (free or low cost in home care, meals on wheels, home safety modifications, and Medicare guidance) or help with transition into assisted living.
Habitat For Humanity: They aren't just in disaster zones or on foreign soil; they have local US chapters that provide critical repairs to families in need. They repair roofs, address barriers to access, and perform electric and plumbing work.
Durable Medical Equipment Loan Closets: Communal sources of vital medical equipment including wheelchairs, walkers, canes, hospital beds, shower chairs, and more. May be able to provide incontinence supplies or diabetes supplies. Rarely but sometimes provide oxygen.
Non Emergency Medical Transportation/Alternatives to Mass Transit: Transportation for elderly, disabled, cognitively impaired, and low income citizens to help them reach medical providers, dental care, physical therapy, and eye exam appointments. Can also provide transit to shopping centers, the grocery store, religious events, cultural events, and polling stations. Offer door to door services for the housebound. IF YOU HAVE MEDICAID, YOU SHOULD NOT EVER BE PAYING FOR THIS. MEDICAID IS OBLIGATED TO MAKE SURE YOU REACH ANY AND ALL MEDICAL APPOINTMENTS.
Legal Aid Clinics: Sources of pro-bono or sliding scale legal advice and representation.
i bet the pain will end if i arrange a perfect enough sentence about it
ive got a little secret about the circumstances under which these sentences as well were arranged
i am not a psychiatrist but i do find it really weird how autism checklists are so often focused on "outward" signs of autism rather than what is going on internally. i don't know how to explain it but "do you make eye contact with other people" feels like a much less relevant question than "how does it feel when you have to make eye contact with other people?"
while i'm here, the other one that always pisses me off is "do you interpret idioms literally, for example 'bull in a china shop'?"
well, no, obviously. i know what "bull in a china shop" means because that is a popular phrase with a clearly defined meaning. and if i hadn't heard it before, then i would still not interpret it literally, because it has the cadence of an idiom and i would probably be able to work out from context what it meant. what is the point of this question
third and final complaint: "are you good at noticing subtext?"
i feel like the problem with this question is best illustrated by a conversation i had with a friend a while back, where i said something like, "i feel very safe with you because you don't do subtle hints and you are always very straight-up with me about what you are thinking and feeling."
and he laid a hand on my shoulder and was like, look dude i'm gonna be straight up here. i am subtle with you constantly and you simply do not notice <3
@luckyybones hope you don't mind me screenshotting but you are actually so correct
the online identity and gimmick-ifying of autism is so odd. I'm diagnosed with autism and yet I barely identify with any stuff I see about it anymore. It feels like autism is being rebranded as the Silly Guy Disorder that gives you smart and beautiful hyperspecific interests. it's not that I mind silly jokes or being lighthearted about being autistic- but when the entire social movement is based around marketing us this way, I just can't help but feel isolated from it. it feels like I'm not the right kind of autistic. I'm not marketable and digestible to common audiences, and therefore I am discarded by the movement in the name of progress and acceptance. it feels foul.
zionists die aspies die
The zionist associating with Nazi terminology.... I wonder why.
Western journalists feel that there are no consequences for them, so they have started publishing provocative or inhumane statements in this way.
Look, it's clear that when you're suffering, you're not allowed anything pleasant, peaceful, or even a little bit of luxury—because people immediately decide that "the situation isn't that bad" and tell you to relax. As if trying to experience simple, normal moments erases the pain and suffering. It's truly infuriating logic.
Guys, no one has looked upon us with compassion since October 7th. Gaza has been relentlessly bombed. Hospitals have been targeted and besieged. Water has been cut off, electricity cut off, food prevented, and people have lived with hunger, thirst, and fear every day. Millions have been forced to flee from place to place, carrying what little life they have left in their hands. And even amidst all this, the world is still debating whether the suffering in Gaza is "real enough." My family and I are suffering greatly and need help. Please donate and share this post.
Guys, please, we need your help, we don't have the money to buy food and medicine, please guys help us and donate to me my last donation a day ago. We're really suffering.
Guys, just €350 to reach 9,500 from your silver, help me and donate, my family is waiting for your help, donate if possible, and don't ignore me, please. You're the only hope.
mutual aid request for kitty
so, here is the situation.
Slowly, my household has been able to crank our monthly bills down through judicious use of Beans and Rice. i thought we were in a good place and that would be the last i would need to bother the internet for donations in a while.
then, my cat got very sick forever. last week (plus a couple days) we discovered she has very early onset hyperthyroidism, which means she has small tumors inside her thyroid glands that are causing her metabolism to skyrocket - we noticed her getting dangerously thin about two weeks ago and now she is 4 pounds. we have medication and lots of delicious yumular cat food for her, but;
each vet visit is 500 dollars (minimum two vet visits, we've already had one), and insurance does not want to cover it fully because she had high thyroid levels before we got her. medication and extra food is an expense we have not prepared for in the realm of 100 dollars a month or so. and local radioactive iodine surgery will cost us anywhere from 1,500 to 3,000 dollars that we absolutely do not have. while radioactive iodine treatments have an extremely high success rate, even if insurance fully approves the treatment that puts us 300-600 dollars on the hook that we can't afford (we're on razor thin margins as it is), but if we don't, then over the course of her lifetime the medication and extra food will cost us vastly more.
this is not my usual "call to help a transgender person pay her paychecks". we simply cannot afford treatment and if we can't afford treatment she will waste away and die. and i really would prefer that not happen, because she's four years old and deserves to have a long full life.
cat tax from when she was healthier
i may set up a gofundme later. i may not because i don't know if there's a way to do it without doxxing me. in the meanwhile, feel free to donate at https://paypal.me/bstdev.
Go to paypal.me/bstdev and type in the amount. Since it’s PayPal, it's easy and secure. Don’t have a PayPal account? No worries.
i am also available for freelance work as a writer, copyeditor, and programmer/software developer, specializing in video games and websites. rates are negotiable.
if you can't donate, sharing would also be appreciated. thank you.
hello everyone the previous reblog chain was getting a little too long so i'm reeling everything back here. here is the sequence of events so far;
We went to a cardiologist to consult before what should've been a fairly routine I-131 procedure.
The cardiologist informs us that my cat is in decompensated heart failure and her heart is beating at half the speed it's supposed to be, and will be like that forever.
She also has extreme inflammation, tons of fluid around her heart and lungs, and could basically fall over dead at any moment.
After two months of persistent heart medication, her heart is now, as of the latest checkup yesterday, normal size, normal shape, and with zero fluid - what has been called to me "compensated heart failure". That means we are tentatively okay for I-131 surgery, but we will have to wait and see if there are further developments with her heart, thyroid, and kidneys first.
Additionally, the surgery will require her to be off her thyroid medication for two weeks, which could decompensate her heart again. That is to say, everything is very touch and go right now.
And each one of these visits costs like $500 dollars that my pet insurance is refusing to cover whatsoever. Like I pay you fuckers for anything, right???
Here is the total as it stands. All of the money raised so far has basically been spent on the respective vet visits and we are solidly in the red on vet visits now by only a couple of hundred dollars rather than several thousand. And the I-131 treatment is still looming on the horizon, if it happens at all (if it does not, I will update the total accordingly).
$4235/$6270
Thank you all for your help.
People are unfazed if you hate women but if you dislike dogs they assume you're a bad person
Tumblr users will read a post complaining about normalized misogyny and hyperfocus on your claim that it's ok to dislike dogs
"your life is yours to mold" oh nooooooooo oh no oh my god. oh fuck me. no. oh my god. oh im so fucked dude.
Today I wanted to talk about Marlow Trottie. Marlow was a 35 year old Black woman living in Louisiana, whose friends and family described as always having "a smile on her face" and as being "literally the sweetest person I’ve ever met!”, according to Them news' Quispe López.
Marlow Trottie was killed on June 8th 2026. She was found dead, alone, in the streets of Alexandria, Louisiana. It was a homicide.
Marlow Trottie was a woman. Her family has contested this, and publicly misgendered her, and many news sites have already deadnamed and misgendered her as well. I fear what her obituary will say. I fear what her gravestone will say even more.
She joins a growing list of other trans women who have been killed simply for existing. Again from Them news, that list now numbers 11 women from the past 3 months alone.
"only those who have organs that can give birth deserve protections from misogyny" is just thinly veiled "a woman's value comes from her ability to give birth"
women who cannot give birth are treated as valueless and unworthy of protection, and thus face much more aggressive misogyny. misogyny is not only faced by women who can give birth. very far from it
I've seen it said that this is true but it doesn't include trans women, and... like, how exactly? our inability to give birth is one of the main arguments as to why we don't deserve protections from misogyny. despite the fact that we face incredible amounts of misogyny
if someone is oppressed by misogyny, they deserve protections from it
I could bring up gender or sex and go "trans women are women, therefore we deserve protections from misogyny," but the thing is: we are women, but what's actually pertinent to this subject is that we are vulnerable to and oppressed by misogyny. no arguments about who's "really" a woman even need to enter the picture
the vulnerable and the oppressed should be protected
if someone is oppressed by misogyny, they deserve protections from it
this might sound weird, but I think it's somewhat a misstep to counter right-wing arguments about trans women with "but trans women are women, therefore we deserve protections from misogyny," because that keeps the whole discussion centered on who "counts" as a woman
does it matter who "counts" as a woman by any definition when reality looks like this?
ok so this is another long shot but a few years ago there was a twitter post (in japanese i think?) that had measurememts for how to make this book stand thing out of cardboard that you could use to double up books and use up more space on shelves
back then i made a bunch of these but by now i lost the pic and dont know how to find the original post anymore
if it comes down to it i can just take one apart and get the measurements from there but i would be very grateful if anyone happens to have the original post or something similar??
don't mind how long it's been since i made this post, anyway i realized that i don't even need to take one apart to get the measurements when i can literally just unfold it and refold it /FACEPALM
so anyway here is the diagram for anyone else who is interested!!
this requires pretty big carboard pieces, if you have a really big box or something you can make it from one piece, but if you don't, you can also just make each of the pieces individually and then tape them together
and then in the end you put it together like this!!
and then when you make a bunch you can put them all next to each other and stack your books like crazy
EVERYONE START GETTING MORE USE OUT OF YOUR SPACE NOW!!!!
Okay, real talk now. People love to tag male characters in posts about women, but this post is gonna take this seriously. Is there actually a canonically male character you believe is a trans woman? Or at least has made into a trans woman for a fanart or a fanfic? Excluding the ones canonically implied.
Sound off in the tags! Link to the fanart or fic if available. Do it. Give me the girls. Make more women.
I just thought this thread on character creation in RPGs was neat.
ok enough regular fujoshi media we need to investigate how writing about men fucking is actually proxy sex between women we need a story about two womens increasingly codependent and toxic online friendship built on writing slash fiction together escalating to doing sex roleplay on instant messengers pretending to be their favorite ship to get better at writing so they can really embody the mind of the characters obviously and talking one of the women thru her divorce and their weird emotionally blurred and toxic friendship as the more talented friend keeps leveraging her popularity and control over a major fanfic site in the fandom to keep control over the rapidly deteriorating friendship and they have weird phone sex and one of them realizes they are gay for real and gets a girlfriend whos jealous of how much time shes spending online and the friendship eventually explodes and one of them goes on to get published and the other woman shows up at her book signing and its the first time they have ever seen each other face to face but only one of them knows who the other is
This is what I've been trying to explain to people: the problem with AI isn't just what it makes, it's that if you need to validate or change literally anything then you need to be able to check under the hood. The more complex the operation is that you asked it to perform, the more in trouble you're going to be in if you need to explain how it works.
26 years in the coding business. 16 years teaching padawans how to code.
Since the slop came into our life, I keep repeating over and over: a piece of software does not stop to matter after it's release. If you created something that is used "out there", you will need to maintain it and probably extend it. You have to know it by heart for this to work. Ever fixed someone else's legacy code in overtime at night or on weekends? With the customers, your boss and the shareholders breathing down your neck? Learn the basics. Cover your bases. Maybe AI can help you with some snippets if need be, but in the end, you're gonna be held responsible and sit there at the weekends, not captain Claude, or their Copilot or some other Chatbot. It's your ass in the crosshairs...
we as an industry built around jargon like "technical debt" have seemingly forgot what it means when AI is involved
it's crazy how much being a somber sort who talks weird drives new people away
oh my god i talked weird in this post even. it is over for my strange ass
