Edit to update Saturday August 9th. Unfortunately we are… Rowan Peters needs your support for Help Disabled Queer Family Secure Housin

These posts never get much traction on tumblr but I really, REALLY need help, and I would appreciate it if you could donate if possible, or at least reblog to spread it.

Long sob story: My wife and I (and their girlfriend) were offered a place to stay in January when we, three disabled trans folks, were unable to keep paying $1300 in rent. We were assured that this was our home as well, that our friend would never kick us out and definitely wouldn't make any moving plans without a discussion/agreement on all sides.

Until we called her out on some fucked up, predatory behavior. She spent the last two weeks either avoiding us (despite claiming to be sorry and wanting to fix things) or, the few times she was home, being cruel and abusive toward us. She told us over text today that we have til the end of September to move (still looking into the legality of that in New York State, but that's besides the point).

We're all varying degrees and kinds of disabled. I had to quit my job months ago because my POTS and arthritis got so bad I couldn't be up and moving for even fifteen minutes at a time. My wife is physically disabled and working a part-time job that is breaking their body. If you bottled our collective mental health right now, you could use it to poison someone. Simply put, we're fucked.

We're trying to save up enough for us to be able to buy a crappy trailer or put a down-payment on a shitty house, whatever we can manage. Rent is atrocious in our area, and we have four cats, reptiles, and fish that we have to move with. Giving up our cats is NOT an option. Those beasts are the only thing keeping us clinging to life some days. We also need to keep up with car payments, insurance, and phone bill.

Please donate if you can. No amount is too small. I'm not trying to make anyone feel guilty, but I don't know what we're gonna do if we can't get some help from the community.

If gofundme is a pain in the ass for you, here are some other avenues:

In case anyone else non-Black is wondering about one way to approach conflicts (how *I* do it, everyone's not the same!) about antiblackness in your fandoms/space, here's the advice I gave in my last ask about cruel racists:

Here's the thing that I've learned, and it may help you. It'll hurt, but... It's the truth.

Many people enjoy being racist.

They won't call it that! But the things they enjoy (and don't) are affected by said racism, and acknowledging that would mean either sacrificing their enjoyment or accepting that they are a racist (which looks bad!) So they just deny it completely. So tbh, you'll never be able to convince many of those kinds of people to stop, bc the battle is usually far deeper than actual ignorance.

I would encourage you to walk into these battles not with the goal to convince anybody- you'll leave disappointed and disheartened more often than not- but with the goal of pointing it out and shattering that "ignorance". If they didn't know, they know now. If they know now, and double down, they're consciously choosing racism, whether they want to admit it or not. The Black people around you will see your solidarity, and there might even be others you don't even see that learn from the interaction (and then they won't act like that 🤣). That's how I go about it, anyway, and it's saved me a lot of peace.

creatingblackcharacters

I've said it to a few people who've asked me about their "potentially racist" friends on here, and it holds true for the fandom folks you keep around you as well. Either they'll buck up and do better, or they won't, and now you know who you're dealing with (a racist). You can't control what they do, but you can move yourself accordingly (i.e., remove yourself from them and show support for Black fans, or don't, in which case... 😬🤷🏾‍♀️)

I'm going to extend an olive branch to every other fandom and "apologize" that every time there's a Tumblr shipping tournament, the entire Star Trek: The Original Series fandom and our famous benefactors come out of the woodworks to lecture about fandom history, and it somehow works every time.

Hey! I'm Lex and I could really use some help paying off my wife's car payme… Lex Peters needs your support for Help two queer, disabled peo

Hi friends. We're officially at the emergency gofundme stage of struggling to keep up with bills. My wife's car was towed today for late car payments. We are both disabled and have a ton of appointments we need to get to, including my surgery at the end of the month. They won't be able to get to work anymore, and we're already down one income because I can't work right now.

We have one week (until the 24th) to pay off over $1,200 or their car will be auctioned off. We CANNOT get by without our car. Please, if you're able to give anything at all, it would make a big difference. Even if you can't, please please reblog this.

Happy sexual sunday. Today I'm thinking about Ed humping things (as per usual)

And what if Ed had a favorite pillow to hump when he got in the mood for it. It's soft and silky and just right for teasing himself when he wants to be a desperate little mess, just grinding away on it and gasping and whimpering for relief because it's so hard to get enough stimulation to actually get himself off with it. And what if Stede caught him humping it one day, and told him to keep going so he could watch? And then, when Ed was begging for more, Stede flipped him over and fucked him with his face in his pillow so he was just screaming into his own mess?

this is just my opinion but i think any good media needs obsession behind it. it needs passion, the kind of passion that's no longer "gentle scented candle" and is now "oh shit the house caught on fire". it needs a creator that's biting the floorboards and gnawing the story off their skin. creators are supposed to be wild animals. they are supposed to want to tell a story with the ferocity of eating a good stone fruit while standing over the sink. the same protective, strange instinct as being 7 and making mud potions in pink teacups: you gotta get weird with it.

good media needs unhinged, googling-at-midnight kind of energy. it needs "what kind of seams are invented on this planet" energy and "im just gonna trust the audience to roll with me about this" energy. it needs one person (at least) screaming into the void with so much drive and energy that it forces the story to be real.

sometimes people are baffled when fanfic has some stunning jaw-dropping tattoo-it-on-you lines. and i'm like - well, i don't go here, but that makes sense to me. of fucking course people who have this amount of passion are going to create something good. they moved from a place of genuine love and enjoyment.

so yeah, duh! saturday cartoons have banger lines. random street art is sometimes the most precious heart-wrenching shit you've ever seen. someone singing on tiktok ends up creating your next favorite song. youtubers are giving us 5 hours of carefully researched content. all of this is the impossible equation to latestage capitalism. like, you can't force something to be good. AI cannot make it good. no amount of focus-group testing or market research. what makes a story worth listening to is that someone cares so much about telling it - through dance, art, music, whatever it takes - that they are just a little unhinged about it.

one time my friend told me he stayed up all night researching how many ways there are to peel an orange. he wrote me a poem that made me cry on public transportation. the love came through it like pith, you know? the words all came apart in my hands. it tasted like breakfast.

Sorry to be a party pooper on the pisspoor website but it drives me so insane that so much horror media that is very explicitly a stand in for critiquing systemic issues can only be consumed through wanting to fuck your weird little guys. Id even make peace with people who did both but it’s so jarring to be moved by a piece and then be dumb enough to go into tags and 90% of posts are like “oooh the racist guy who is a metaphor for corrective rape is soooo daddy”

Monsterfucking is fine, idgaf about cnc stories and “dark themes” in writing, I’m not kink shaming the interest, I am questioning the outlet. Did you understand anything that happened on your screen yes or no?

Whatever your answer could you at least add some tag to it that lets me filter out your nazi x self fanfics?

cock-holliday

I mean at least dead dove implies they tagged their shit or even put under a readmore. I don’t CARE if people do darkfic stuff, genuinely, it annoys me that a large population of people can *only* do that with some sort of content, especially ones that aren’t just like yknow slasher/jumpscare/etc content where there isn’t much story/commentary/character. Yknow like wanting to fuck the horror creature that kills everyone is whatever, wanting to fuck the minor character whose dialogue is 60% slurs sits weird with me.

I don’t really care much what content comes out of media, I care about whether the message is being received at all and wondering why any of the complex characters do not appeal to you, why none of the themes reached your brain, and what about this particular character who exists as nothing else but to be a bigot, or the EXPLICIT DEVICE USED TO CRITICIZE A BIGOTED VILE SUSTEM strikes your fancy?

I have realized that the perfect form of media must have a delicate balance between absolutely heart wrenching pure emotional devastation and the most ridiculous nonsense you have ever seen in your whole life

is this https://www.tumblr.com/knifewieldingenby/684326741125316608/decided-to-take-some-inspiration-from-the-current?source=share meant as a femflux flag or like a combo femflux+nonbinary flag?

It's a combination of both :)
