I know it's rare for me to make original posts these days, but AI data centers are being planned here in Vancouver, Canada. Please, consider signing or at least spreading this petition to give it some more reach.
They're planning on putting one of the centers right by BC Place, a beautiful and historic landmark in one of the "artsy" areas of downtown Van. Yes, Telus is claiming this is going to be "Green GenAI," but it's bullshit. It's all just horrific bullshit.
STOP the Vancouver AI Data Centre from being built.
My family and I all suffer from thalassemia and are currently suffering from anemia. We need your financial and moral support to save us all from the danger that threatens us.
Any donation will be a lifeline for us. Any share will be helpful. Any like, any interaction will be the beginning of a better life for us. Put down your phone for a moment and share this to get us out of this hell.
STOP NOW my wife is getting worse and I don’t know how much time I still have with her.
I am writing this with shaking hands while she is still breathing beside me.
Two days without a single donation.
Because of the situation here, I cannot get her the medicine or urgent dental treatment she needs. Her condition is getting worse every day, and even her teeth have started to fall out due to pain and severe deterioration, and I am completely powerless to stop it.
I hold her hand and try to stay strong, but inside I feel like I am slowly losing her in front of my eyes.
We are running out of everything food, treatment, strength, and time.
Please don’t let this become another silent loss.
If you can help, even a small donation can make a difference right now.If you cannot, please share this so it reaches someone who can act.
If anything bad happens to me or I lose contact with you, please remember that I begged you to donate, even a small amount, or to share my post. I will not forgive anyone who sees this post and doesn't support me with a single word or a small donation, and ignores me.
I write these words with tears in my eyes, watching my nephew suffer so much, unable to get up. He has been in excruciating pain and has had repeated fainting spells over the past week due to severe anemia. I cannot afford all the medications he needs because of their high prices. All I wish is that he doesn't faint again, so I implore you to support me and help me buy his medications as soon as possible. Please donate.
Worse still, my nephew lost his father in this genocide, and I, his uncle, am their sole provider. His condition is deteriorating daily, and he desperately needs urgent surgery before his pain worsens. The pain is constant, even at night; he can't sleep, and every moment feels like endless agony.
I stand helpless before this heartbreaking scene. I don't have enough money to cover the costs of the operation or even to provide the medication that would alleviate his excruciating pain. My sense of helplessness is just as painful as his illness itself, perhaps even more so.
I need your help to alleviate my nephew's suffering and save him as soon as possible. Please, I don't want anything bad to happen to him; I've already lost my mother, my older brother, my home, and my friends. Please help me raise the necessary funds for my nephew's medication and surgery as quickly as possible. Support me, donate.

We urgently need 550 euros to save my nephew from the brink of death and get him surgery. I beg you, everyone who sees this, please don't ignore me. If you can't donate, please share this post. Is there anyone who can help? 💔😭
Oh my God, oh my God! Just now, in our neighborhood, everyone was evacuated because an entire block was targeted and completely destroyed. I swear we survived by a miracle! Shrapnel is flying everywhere! Oh my God! The war isn't over! The war isn't over! I swear it isn't over! And there's displacement happening in our neighborhood. Please, you are our only hope. Please don't let us down. Donate for my nephew's surgery. We still need 500 euros. Donate! Donate! 😭😭💔
This is the entire neighborhood that was wiped out. We were safe and sound in our demolished homes when we received a call to evacuate immediately and destroy the entire block. 😭💔
I know that ignoring me will kill me, my family, and my nephew if you continue to ignore me. Therefore, I will not forgive anyone who sees this post and ignores me, doesn't donate, or doesn't share the post. Please, save me from this annihilation and save my nephew so he can have his surgery. He still needs 500 euros. Donate, donate! 😭💔
"While those working at private companies can at least earn a little money, they face possible punishment if they refuse, from being denied family visits to being sent to higher-security prisons, which are so dangerous that the federal government filed a lawsuit four years ago that remains pending [note: article is from 2024], calling the treatment of prisoners unconstitutional.
Though they make at least $7.25 an hour, the state siphons 40% off the top of all wages and also levies fees, including $5 a day for rides to their jobs and $15 a month for laundry.
Turning down work can jeopardize chances of early release in a state that last year granted parole to only 8% of eligible prisoners — an all-time low, and among the worst rates nationwide — though that number more than doubled this year after public outcry."
No state has a longer, more profit-driven history of contracting prisoners out to private companies than Alabama.
I am genuinely sorry for this, but my sister is dying. (I am redoing this entire post because despite the almost 13k notes, not enough help is coming. I have been posting/reblogging for almost 8 months to gather enough funds for her medication and now a much-needed surgery, but the fundraising post remains quite stagnant.) If I could only ask for your permission one by one, I genuinely would, but I am afraid of the possibility that Tumblr may consider our plea as spam. Also, if any of you want an even more elaborate explanation about her medical condition, kindly look into this account's pinned post or you can message me directly because Tumblr flagged the pinned post as "sensitive content" after attaching proof of how extremely disfigured her right arm/body is. At times, it is also kept hidden so not everyone is receiving a notification even after being repeatedly tagged. So, please understand.
This is the direct link to the fundraiser, and please look at the update to see/know more.
My older sister's health has declined drastically since the last week of December 2024, which is why I decided to take over this account as per her request. We never intended to resort to asking for monetary assistance online but we still don't have the funds to get her through. As I have mentioned above, you can look into this account's pinned post to see how deformed her right hand was (if you needed the not blurred one, please let me know because I cannot possibly upload the actual picture because her account might end up getting taken down) plus it can be quite graphic.
The entirety of her right arm was not only swollen, but blood kept seeping out of her knuckles, her palm, and her elbow. Protruding tumors/swelling have reached both of her breasts, too, and are affecting her shoulder/shoulder blades and even her spine, and now her neck. As I have said, please reach out to me if you want to see more proof/health updates because I cannot post the photos here as they are somewhat too graphic. There's a lot of blood loss.
If you could, please take some time to read her pinned post—please do. If you cannot donate, a reblog will still be highly appreciated. We need all the help we can get. I recently just turned 18, and am only working part-time jobs trying to keep our family afloat, and what I am earning is not enough to take care of my older sister and our paralytic mother. The hospital could stop providing treatment at any time if we cannot put together the amount we owe them and the amount needed to outsource some of the medication that their in-house pharmacy cannot supply. It is a matter of life and death so I am begging all of you to please consider helping us. Help us get through this, please.
If you want to be removed from being tagged, please message me directly, and I will immediately do as you like. I know that this may seem invasive but it is not our intention. We are just desperate, and have been running out of ways to keep my sister alive. I cannot offer anything in return other than an express my immense gratitude. I am sorry, and please consider helping us. Thank you very much.
WE STILL NEED AT LEAST $3,200 IN THE NEXT 48 HOURS, AND COULD USE $500 BEFORE THE DAY ENDS. WE ONLY HAVE AT LEAST TWO HOURS LEFT. PLEASE HAVE MERCY AND DONATE. WE HAVEN'T EVEN MET THE SHORT-TERM GOAL WE SET FOR THE LAST 9 MONTHS. AND DESPITE THE ALMOST 13K NOTES ON THE PINNED POST, WE ARE STILL IN NEED OF SAID AMOUNT BADLY. PLEASE HELP US. THE SWELLING ON HER NECK BURST WHICH RESULTED IN HER LOSING BLOOD AGAIN. SHE IS NOW STILL BEING OBSERVED, AND IS CURRENTLY INTUBATED. MY SISTER MIGHT END UP BEING DEPRIVED OF PROPER TREATMENT SOON AND THE POSSIBILITY OF SUFFERING FROM A CARDIAC ARREST AND EVEN A COMA IS IMMENSELY HIGH BECAUSE BOTH HER MAGNESIUM AND POTASSIUM ARE ALMOST DEPLETED. PLEASE HAVE MERCY. I CANNOT EMPHASIZE HOW EXTREMELY URGENT THIS IS. I DON'T WANT HER DEAD. PLEASE CONSIDER HELPING. PLEASE DONATE.
WE STILL NEED TO SECURE AT LEAST TWO BAGS OF BLOOD RIGHT NOW, TOO. PLEASE HELP MY SISTER OUT. SHE IS IN A CRITICAL CONDITION. I CANNOT EVEN POST THE PHOTOS/PROOF OF THE BLOOD AND PUS COMING OUT OF HER BODY WITHOUT TUMBLR TAKING IT DOWN OR TAGGING IT AS EXPLICIT CONTENT BUT YOU CAN MESSAGE ME DIRECTLY SO I COULD SHOW YOU JUST HOW SEVERE HER HEALTH HAS GOTTEN. IT IS INCOMPREHENSIBLY TERRIBLE. I WOULDN'T BE THIS DESPERATE IF IT WAS NOT A MATTER OF LIFE AND DEATH. PLEASE DONATE TO THE FUNDRAISING CAMPAIGN. WE HAVE BEEN TRYING TO COMPLETE THIS AMOUNT FOR 9 MONTHS NOW AND WE ARE STILL NOT GETTING ENOUGH HELP. PLEASE HELP US COMPLETE THIS AMOUNT BEFORE THE DAY ENDS. PLEASE HELP US SAVE HER.
I GENUINELY DON'T KNOW WHAT TO SAY ANYMORE TO APPEAL TO ANY OF YOU. I AM AT A LOSS FOR WORDS. MY SISTER IS FIGHTING FOR HER LIFE (ASIDE FROM ALL THE SWELLING ESPECIALLY ON HER LYMPH NODES, SHE IS ALSO IN A CRITICAL CONDITION DUE TO HER BODY SOMEWHAT NOT ABSORBING BOTH POTASSIUM AND MAGNESIUM WELL) AND WE ARE STILL SEEKING FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE TO AFFORD ALL THE MEDICAL PROCEDURE(S) SHE NEEDS TO STAY ALIVE. WE HAVE BEEN TRYING TO GATHER AID SINCE JUNE 9TH/DUE DATE SINCE JULY 14TH AND UP UNTIL TODAY, WE AREN'T CLOSE TO RAISING ENOUGH. AS I HAVE MENTIONED, I AM AFRAID THAT SHE MIGHT END UP GETTING A HEART ATTACK/GOING INTO COMA OR EVEN WORSE—DYING DUE TO COMPLICATIONS. I TRULY CANNOT EMPHASIZE HOW URGENT AND SEVERE HER HEALTH CONDITION IS. THREE DAYS IN A ROW NOW, THERE IS PUS LEAKING OUT OF HER LEFT BREAST. SO, PLEASE HELP US. PLEASE DONATE.
(Please look into the photos under the fundraiser as well to understand how urgent this is since Tumblr kept tagging whatever photos I post as "mature content". They kept hiding updates which is why it isn't getting any traction at all.) I have been asking around for help for 9 months now (I wasn't able to post anything for almost two weeks as well despite staff insisting that the account isn't restricted/shadowbanned) but there is not much significant change at all. There are almost 13k notes, but it doesn't translate to donations.
So, I am deeply sorry if I am somehow offending you because I randomly tagged you. We are beyond desperate to spread this post and get enough help. I am begging you to please understand my desperation. Kindly donate, please. And see the pinned post on this account, if you want to know how awful her health is but be careful because the photos could be too graphic. I am really sorry. Please don't reprimand me.
If you want to be removed from being tagged, please message me directly, and I will immediately do as you like. I know that this may seem invasive but it is not our intention. I just don't know what to do anymore and I have been running out of ways to keep my sister alive. I cannot offer anything in return other than to express my immense gratitude. I am sorry, and please consider helping us. Thank you very much.
does anyone have $10 or anything for my family of 6 living in a terrible tent? we need food and medicine for my sister, medication that helps her recover from severe anemia and acute malnutrition.
this is URGENT as she has been without her medication for THREE DAYS so far. please i’m begging we need help to get through this, anything helps. i’m screwed every which way because even if i found a way to get food i wouldn’t be able to get the medicine.
please consider donating a dollar, it’ll add up quickly.
There is a story I cannot bear alone, and a heart I cannot let break in silence.
My friend Abdul Rahman… a young man I knew for his resilience, his kind heart, and his ability to endure hardship. But what he is going through today is beyond anyone's capacity to bear. He lost his mother after a battle with cancer and also lost his brother in the genocide in Gaza. Now, his nephew urgently needs surgery and requires 500 euros for the procedure, and his condition is deteriorating at an alarming rate. All he needs now is a chance… just one chance to save him, to get the necessary funds for the surgery, and to receive treatment before it's too late.
The costs of the surgery and treatment are beyond his means, and time is running out relentlessly.
Therefore, I am speaking to you… not as a published writer, but as a human being who sees a friend drowning and is trying with all his might to reach out and save his nephew who has lost his father.
Whoever can donate—even a little—is giving their nephew a life, giving their nephew a hope that was about to fade.
And if you can't donate, just share this post… it might reach the right heart at the right time.

Guys, all we need right now is 500 euros so we can get my nephew surgery. He's still unwell, and the surgery is in a sensitive area of his body. It needs to be done quickly so his condition doesn't worsen and something bad happens to him. Please, I beg you, don't ignore me and donate. Please donate! 😭💔
Posting for my friend Charlotte again. Disabled trans woman who is homeless and fighting cancer. Her motel is up in 3 days and her phone just broke AGAIN. In addition, her cashapp has been terminated because she doesn’t have an ID to verify her account. She has spent most of the week at the hospital. This is really scary- the few survival options to her are closing themselves off, and I don’t know how she is going to keep going. For the time being people can paypal me directly and I will send it to whoever she can find nearby to receive money, while she tries to get a valid ID. Goal is $500 for a new phone plus a week at the motel. Anything helps- if 50 people send $10 that covers it.
Ty for reading.
Go to paypal.me/ruby11a and type in the amount. Since it’s PayPal, it's easy and secure. Don’t have a PayPal account? No worries.
Tumblr banned my account because I was asking for help to save my wife from death.😭
I ask for your support in adding my account and sharing this post so my voice reaches the world and Tumblr to stop banning my account.
My wife is in the hospital in intensive care to save her life. She is suffering from severe malnutrition, which has led to her losing consciousness completely.
I also ask for your help during these difficult times. I feel like I'm dying every day. I'm here fighting for my wife, for her survival. I can't bear to lose her; she means so much to me. Please help me and donate to save her life. Donate to save a soul that deserves to live.😭
We need 850 euros to cover her medical treatment. 210 euros have already been secured, leaving 640 euros that must be raised today to improve her condition and help her regain consciousness.
Please don't be stingy, donate to save a life that deserves a better life.
These may be my last words or the last time I write a post about my family, so I will not forgive anyone who sees this post and does not support me with a single word and ignores me.

Time is running out, there's very little left. Please help me save my wife. When I see her in pain, my heart breaks for her, and I'm helpless to do anything. Please, if ten people donate 50 euros each, I can get her treatment quickly today.
I beg you with a heart full of pain to help my wife. 😭

I'm Restarting my Fundraising Post due to new circumstances, please share
Hey all! My name is Phoenix and I'm a white, Jewish (Free Palestine) and Panamanian Latina trans woman and union steward and organizer. I'm married to Olivia (@writeswrongs), the daughter of Salvadoran refugees, a U.S. naturalized citizen, a union organizer, anti-imperialist feminist and writer. We're asking for help today.
I’ve been struggling to even find low wage entry level restaurant jobs and I have been out of work since mid-March after I got fired at my unionized job for allegedly leaving notes with "migrants welcome" and Jewish and Muslim religious symbols outside the living space of an open white nationalist. The fact that this person is a white nationalist is not being denied by my employer, who is claiming I created a safety risk and violated their equity principles by doing this. Meanwhile in the real world Nazis have repeatedly stalked me and my parents and spent years harassing our neighborhood with public rallies and calling for my and my wife's peoples to be exterminated by force. I am in the middle of a union grievance process with that employer to return to that job and/or receive backpay.
Because I've been out of work, there's been additional financial stress on our household. We hope to soon be a two person income home again very soon but we will need your help with rent and grocery costs. My wife hasn't been able to afford meals at work where she serves as a health assistant for homeless and low income people. We also recently were contacted to foster a new family member who was taken into the care of the state. This has been a very exciting and new process for us and we hope to soon be on our feet to support ourselves and my new sibling. She is being placed with us next week.
Please, if you can share this post, a multiracial queer couple dedicated to serving their community through direct service, union + tenant organizing and socialist political struggle will be able to maintain their housing as we transition into a new and exciting phase of our lives.
Rent is due by June 4th, 2026 and we are behind on our phone bill and the prior month’s split-in-two rent payment. My wife's check otherwise won't be able to cover rent and all our other expenses, and we wouldn't be able to afford groceries.
My birthday was May 6th, and I couldn’t afford even the small present of a nice meal to myself so this would be a great late birthday present. Thank you. You can donate through these services below.
