idk how to address this but i've been diagnosed with something and i'm struggling to deal with it

due to money trouble and my untreated ADHD, i've neglected many of my needs/wants/problems over the past decade or so and now with my diagnosis and treatment ahead i'm terrified and idk what the next year of my life will look like.

i have a very long to-do list and not much time left in which to do them in (by the 18th this month which obviously isn't possible to get everything done by then) and like 99% of my problems would be solved by money (as most peoples' problems would)

i'm fortunate enough that healthcare where i live is "free" but that still doesn't take into account: not having enough money to get things i need and to survive and live off and transportation issues and a million other things. plus the system is understaffed, underfunded, and therefore they'll be constant delays with my healthcare/treatment.

my mental health has also suffered a lot in the past few months since finding out, hence why i've been absent from tumblr (only liking posts from the shadows, hoping i'll have time and energy to reblog/queue them eventually)

my laptop and phone have also both given me "your battery has failed, you need to replace it asap" messages in the last couple months, as if i didn't have enough to worry about.

so if you can donate any money and/or signal boost this post, you have no idea how much you'll be helping me <3

ko-fi

(medical cw: medical condition under read-more)

so i had a crappy 2025 for many months, only to cap the year off right around the holidays that i have cancer. so i now i have an even crappier year to look forward to.

i have to have chemotherapy every 2-3 weeks, i still don't know all the language well enough because i've been having anxiety/panic attacks while still going to appointments for ultrasounds/biopsies/PET-CT/MRI (some of these multiple times cause something went wrong the first time or whatever)

anyway so chemo two cycles of 4 treatments each of different chemo drugs so like 8 chemo sessions of like 2 hours each spaced out 2-3 weeks apart while taking blood 2 days before each chemo appointment.

then i have to have surgery sometime after chemo.

and i will also be losing all my hair so that's fun! i would have to have like 4 hour long chemo sessions to even try and preserve my hair and it seems like it doesn't tend to be worth it. also makes it harder to book me in as well and i don't really wanna spend 4 hours instead of 2 hours getting treatment.

so i'm like going through like my top 3-5 worse fears in life all at once under the age of 30!

all hands on deck!

the new content filters and the flagging system require every reblogger to appeal independently from the poster.

What is happening?

With the latest tumblr content filter updates, every reblog is flagged independently from the original post without the OP knowing. This means that if your post is reblogged by someone and that reblog is flagged, you won't know. The note count will go up, but the note is hidden: you can't see it on the rebloggers blog or any other reblogs branching from the flagged post.

What should I do?

Every reblogger needs to appeal for their own reblogs. Thankfully the review time on Tumblr's side has been fast, usually in a couple of hours they restore the post. If you can notify the OP, grand. If you have time, leave a support ticket, choose feedback and tell them why you think this is a bad model.

Why and how should I do it?

We all know the latest and contested change about the note counts that was thankfully rolled back, but its ramifications are still in use. Tumblr now considers every reblog a post in its own right, as you can see from the new banners for the same post as above:

The turn this website has taken regarding the ownership of posts is at best discouraging and at worst a massive disrespect done to all the artists, creators, gifmakers, fic writers and meta writers out there, making fandom fun and alive. If artists, writers and gifmakers don't get autonomy over their own art being shared on this website, how is a reblog different from a repost, something tumblr actively discourages from doing? How can the OP appeal for a post if they don't even know it's flagged? Why are we taking away ownership of the art from the artist, the human behind it?

How do I appeal?

Tumblr has this very useful feature, both on the website and on the mobile app:

You can find all the flagged posts on your blog either by going to the relevant blog>right hand menu, below Posts, Followers, Activity>Review flagged posts on the website OR by going to Settings>Review flagged posts on the mobile

Then you click on Appeal, and write a very short reason why, describing the post. You can even write this:

This post has nothing that is against the User Guidelines.

Let's keep fandom culture alive, folks.

gif requests + donations!

i am jumping on the train and joining kenzie @buffygifs and charlie @slayerbuffy in taking gif requests for donations for our friend ellie @charmedslayer. She is going through a very hard time - which you can read/reblog her post here and donate to her ko-fi here.

i am going to add buffygifs post here and slayerbuffy's post here if you would like to request from them.

if anyone is able to and would like to donate/participate - please send me a message or dm with proof of donation and whatever you would like me to gif. be as detailed and specific as you'd like! i mostly make gifs from angel, but i've also made gifs for buffy (and previously gotham). i am also open/willing to make gifs for another show or movie for you. you can check out some of the gifs i've made and see if anything suits your fancy!!

in addition to gifs i am also open to fic requests (which take a little bit more time) or making patches/pins based on anything you'd like. I can either make a patch of an image or paint something (with a simple stencil.)

if you can't donate or don't want anything, please consider signal boosting this post, ellie's original post, and the request posts from kenzie and charlie.

thank you! <3

gif requests + donations!

hi everyone!!! my friend @charmedslayer is going through a pretty hard time right now, so i’ve decided to do a mini fundraiser/donation drive for her in the form of gif requests!

you can make donations here and read more about ellie’s situation here <3

if any of you are able/willing to donate, please message or inbox (ask) me with your proof of donation and your gif request! feel free to be as specific/in depth as you want!

i can’t promise that these gifs will be done in a timely manner but generally they should be posted within 1-2 weeks of the request!

of course i completely understand that not everyone is able to donate right now. this isn’t me saying i'll never do regular gif requests!! i just don’t have a lot of time for them right now, so i want to prioritise something important like this :)

p.s. if there are any other gifmakers/creators that are interested in joining me in this fundraiser in any capacity pls let me know!!!! <3
