crowdfunding for laptop

Hey everybody, its e-begging time once more 😔. As many know by now, I’m unemployed due to the pandemic and have been struggling to get cash assistance since october of last year. I was also denied qualification for a stimulus check.

I’ve been without a computer for 4 years and it’s made things in regards to finding work and finishing school very difficult. I’ve been pretty much relying on my phone for everything and I’ve gotten to the point where that’s just not working anymore.

The particular computer I’m trying for is the one below.

hello! just a lil smth, please don’t scroll!

tw // anti-asian violence

there’s been a fuck ton of aapi hate since the beginning of the pandemic and especially lately, with the georgia shootings today, and even the grammys last sunday

all this said i just wanted to share a few resources (none mine!):

- anti-asian violence resources (this resource is also linked in my pinned, it contains information, petitions, places to donate and a lot more)

- stop asian hate (contains petitions, places to donate, ways to spread the word and more)

- sites to donate to and share (if you have a twitter please consider retweeting)

- a cumulative twitter thread with a little bit of everything and more than i explained

+ stop asian hate gofundme

+ asian american resource center (an atlanta based foundation focused on housing and civil classes)

—

if you have any resources you wanna share reply and/or reblog and i’ll add it, and with that please share this with the same tags <3 sending love to my fellow aapi, please stay safe all of you and don’t be fucking racist :]

[nativenews]

Just in case we suddenly disappear. Tumblr is actively censoring Black and Native people.

[linguist-breakaribecca]

Native News is such a valuable resource for news, cultural events, and anti-racism in general. Hey, Tumblr @staff and @support — can you please clear whatever report queue you have that’s censoring these posts of theirs that are clearly not adult content?

Maybe examine whether there are anti-Indigenous people filing false reports of sensitive content? Or if it’s some nebulous algorithm error, could you please publicly apologize for relying on tools that result in such targeted censorship?

[asumihael-deactivated20230506]

stop fucking comparing blm to protect asian lives. literally fucking stop it. comparing the hatred of two groups and saying one is more important than than the other is so disgusting. the hate crimes towards asian americans due to covid-19 are not comparable to the crimes commited against black people and vice versa. stop making everything a damn competition.

and the bullshit of "i'd rather support this than blm" is so embarrassing. SUPPORT BOTH OR NEITHER. you don't get to pick and choose which minority group gets to live and which one doesn't. you fucking crackers are so ignorant.

anyway, here are ways to help and support people with all of the issues going around in the world. actually fucking read it and donate if you're able to:

Every time i see a post or tweet about twilight being gay culture or hilarious I just think about how the Quileute tribe of Washington had to set up a website specifically to combat racist misinformation that was being spread about their history and customs by stephenie meyer. Like she really just took an existing group of people with millennia of actual history and an actual mythos and culture and then just made shit up to fit her sexy mormon abstinence only tract

[particles-and-sweet-electrons]

Donate to help the Quileute Nation move their culture and community center to higher ground now that climate change is threatening their current infrastructure.

[ancestorswatching]

In many cultures, ethnic groups, and nations around the world, hair is considered a source of power and prestige. African people brought these traditions and beliefs to the Americas and passed them down through the generations.

In my mother’s family (Black Americans from rural South Carolina) the women don’t cut their hair off unless absolutely necessary (i.e damage or routine trimming). Long hair is considered a symbol of beauty and power; my mother often told me that our hair holds our strength and power. Though my mother’s family has been American born for several generations, it is fascinating to see the beliefs and traditions of our African ancestors passed down. We are emotionally and spiritually attached to our hair, cutting it only with the knowledge that we are starting completely clean and removing stagnant energy.

Couple this with the forced removal and covering of our hair from the times of slavery and onward, and you can see why so many Black women and men alike take such pride and care in their natural hair and love to adorn our heads with wigs, weaves, braids, twists, accessories, and sharp designs.

Hair is not just hair in African diaspora cultures, and this is why the appropriation and stigma surrounding our hair is so harmful.

Have you been playing a lot of Stardew Valley and Harvest Moon lately? There's a new farming sim in the works, created by an Indonesian company with more diverse gameplay!

Create your farm, romance the villagers, dive to save coral reefs, catch bugs and fish to put in the museum, attend mini games and festivals, and MEET MERMAIDS.

Let's talk about Coral Island!

This Kickstarter has come a long way since it's launch, and as of Feb. 15 it's still got 15 days to reach it's higher goals.

Or, DO YOU WANT TO DATE A MERMAID?

There are three mythical figures in this game, one of them being mermaids. We've finally unlocked the village, but if we unlock the kingdom there are two romance mermaid options.

But if mermaids don't do it for you, the human options are just as sexy! (And yes, OF COURSE YOU CAN PICK ANY GENDER 🏳️‍🌈)

(and the normal townies aren't bad looking either 👀)

Coral island can be a solo or multiplayer experience, and is planned to launch on switch and other consoles not long after early access in Q4!

By backing you get the game key for only $20, which is low for the amount of gameplay Coral Island has to offer!

Yes, that's right! For the low amount of $20, you too can eventually date a mermaid! Consider pledging today!

[lastoneout]

If this sweetens the deal for anyone they also met the stretch goal to include a feature where your children grow up and become proper NPCs, which kids staying toddlers forever is my main complaint about basically every farming sim I've played, so I'm 100% going to buy this. If that's something you want too please consider spending the word and pledging support!

[rootbeerfloats]

that post about media that you consumed when you were a little too young for it is very interesting but i also like to think about media that you consumed at the Exact perfect time in your life for it… its such a nice concept

[rootbeerfloats]

OOH OKAY rb this and tag what piece of media you played/read/watched etc at the perfect time in your life, something that wouldnt have been the same if you didnt consume it when you did…

[the-bitch-mob]

fuck it. be creative even if you never really *make* anything. write out plot synopses of stories and then move on. design OCs you'll never use. make mood boards and concept art and don't do anything with them. life's too short to forget everything that inspired you and creation doesn't have to be "complete" to be worth the time you put into it.

Cat Behavior

[cleoolsson]

a lot of people tend to confuse cats showing their belly for belly rubs, but it’s actually only something dogs do, for cats its a sign of respect and trust, they are not expecting to get pet, so when they do it’s not uncommon they get startled or think its play fight, of course there are expectations and some cats who ADORES belly rubs
