hey girls

asking for help is not something i'm good at, but i just paid rent for august only to find out that my boss/landlord (same guy) is cutting my hours by more than half, so he'll be paying me less than he's charging me in rent. which is also going to fuck up my food stamps because the government hates poors. i have a small network in the city that i am reaching out to for a new job, but that's a process and my expenses are time sensitive.

I have a 7yo daughter, of whom i am the sole custodial parent. her other parent doesn't pay child support and i don't have the money to sue them for what they owe already. things are tense, to say the least.

i need between five hundred to a thousand USD to survive the month. i know we're all drowning out here but please reblog this post if you see it. it would really make a difference. we love you all <3

THANK YOU ALL WHO HAVE DONATED THUS FAR!!!<3<3<3

i've been told today to not expect any more consistent hours from my current job. i have two interviews next week for jobs i can almost certainly get, but ofc i wouldn't get a paycheck until after rent is due.

my landlord also has decided that the security deposit he originally waived still needs to be paid, which is almost another full month's rent. i'm going to update my goal here, please keep sharing and donate if you can, every little bit helps more than you could know<3

OP you just can't leave out this golden comment

One of my favourite bits of media history trivia is that back in the Elizabethan period, people used to publish unauthorised copies of plays by sending someone who was good with shorthand to discretely write down all of the play's dialogue while they watched it, then reconstructing the play by combining those notes with audience interviews to recover the stage directions; in some cases, these unauthorised copies are the only record of a given play that survives to the present day. It's one of my favourites for two reasons:

It demonstrates that piracy has always lay at the heart of media preservation; and

Imagine being the 1603 equivalent of the guy with the cell phone camera in the movie theatre, furtively scribbling down notes in a little book and hoping Shakespeare himself doesn't catch you.

Getting a new phone and making the swipe and autocorrect start to accept curse words is like a type of corruption. At first, she doesn't want to say it because she's pure and innocent but if you make her say it enough she will start suggesting it before anything else.

Cannot stand the trend of censoring any and all words that describe concepts that might make you go :( especially when the censoring is done in that quarter-assed way that's just 'did a lil scribble over a vowel so you know that I know this word describes a no-no."

I'm not even going to be vague about what sparked this. Do not fucking censor the word 'stole.' I'm at my fucking limit.

Who does this benefit. Who is made safer by this. Whose life is made better by this. Who is out there going "Wow I sure am glad I didn't have to see that word without it scribbled on a little. That really reduced the emotional impact of reading that word." Can I kill them?

What if I kidnapped you

What if you woke up one morning in a strange bed with no memory of the night

What if you were terrified, you beg and plead for me to let you go, you promise not to tell anyone, you tell me you'll do anything to earn your freedom, I just look at you with pity in my eyes

What if I cooked you all your favourite foods, sat and watched and made sure you ate three times a day (plus snacks and desert)

What if I made sure you had your meds at a regular time every day

What if I turned off all the lights and WiFi at a set time each night forcing you into a good sleeping pattern

What if you were still terrified, , every day just waiting for me to use you or abuse or hit you just like everyone else who's ever had power over you

What if I was kind

What if you finally let me hold you, collapsed into my arms, let yourself cry

What if you felt truly safe and free for the first time in your life

innumerable-eyes

What if you begged me to let you go anyway, not because I was doing it wrong or not doing enough, but because you felt you didn't deserve it, because you couldn't believe anyone could care about you this much, because you didn't want to be a burden

What if in reply I told you that you'd never gotten a choice how people treated you before, when they were abusive or neglectful, so why would you think you'd get a choice now

I see you all in the notes begging for beatings and torture and hard dominance

And yes, the next step is "what if we fucked violently"

But the kindness has to come first

#oh my god did gallagher just discover the term dank this is so exciting #does he know it's a weed thing?? there's no way right

Of course Peter Gallagher knows that "dank" is a weed thing. He also knows that "in heat" is a sex thing and that when aliens "probe" someone it's in the anus.

These are words, not things. Heathcliff is a comic about symbols.

You're never going to get a comic where an alien actually probes someone any more than you're going to get a comic where the Man-Eating Giant eats a man. You're just going to get a dozen comics where aliens like the word "probe".

Heathcliff wears the ham helmet because it's the helmet you wear when you eat a ham. You can tell it's that helmet because it says "ham" on it. The helmet's function is determined not by its form but by its label.

summer = beach = sand = desert = mummy and thus there is the Summer Mummy. Because of symbolic associations that do not otherwise cohere.

Robots don't wear clothes but the mere act of labeling them "nude" makes them nude. And once a painting is a nude painting there has to be a fig leaf because a "nude" without a "figleaf" is "indecent".
