oh my god this New Yorker article about the Titan holy fucking shit fuck???

[creekfiend]

The Titan Submersible Was “An Accident Waiting to Happen”

Interviews and e-mails with expedition leaders and employees reveal how OceanGate ignored desperate warnings from inside and outside the com

Some notes: 1. the electrical system was designed by engineering undergrads who were working as interns. 2. because it is illegal to take passengers on an unclassed experimental submersible, they called the passengers "mission specialists" & instead of buying tickets they made donations. 3. the satellite beacon was held onto the outside of the sub with zip ties. 4. when Lochridge (the whistleblower) quit, Stockton Rush asked HIS FINANCE DIRECTOR if she wanted to be the pilot and she was like "sir I am an accountant" and the experience of having her boss ask his accountant to be the pilot made her so freaked out that she ALSO quit the company 5. the carbon fiber used to make the hull was bought from a deep discount from Boeing because it was past its expiry date for use in airplanes

AND MUCH, MUCH MORE

Doing this for a third time to see if this time I can finally pay for my dentist appointment and get some money for groceries. Hi, my name is Louise, I live in Brazil where every day the salaries get lower and everything else gets even more expensive! I have been trying to get $300 For my dentist appointment for the last month without any success and i really, really need it because my mouth is killing me and the dentist office won’t finish my mouth unless I pay what I owe them + the new appointment so if anyone could give me a hand I would be incredibly grateful!

Hey so my donation post is losing steam. I guess it got too many notes (almost 2,000) and people stopped donating, so I'm making a new one. My name is Laura and I'm trying to pay for gas to get to full time therapy after my sui attempt last year, and also pay for co-pays for all my medical appointments. I am working toward bariatric surgery, have just been diagnosed with type 2 diabetes, and have back problems that prevent me from working. Any help is deeply, deeply appreciated. I'm currently working toward a goal of $400 just to cover expenses for the next couples weeks.

If you can help I would be so thankful, whether that's a donation or a reblog.

As y’all know my mother passed away on august 1st and I’ve had to cover things like the cremation and other things regarding the burial and it’s left me with no money for other things like the memorial and my own personal expenses so I’m trying to raise some money to help with that so if anyone has anything to spare they donate it here:

Hello, my name is Cassandra and my mother passed away on the 1st of August of this… Cassandra Thompson needs your support for For memorial

[minimalistgrufti]

I had a PayPal pool but I had to switch to gofundme because of a glitch

[minimalistgrufti]

If two more people were to donate $25 I can pay for the memorial in time so if anyone can donate it I’d appreciate it a ton thank you

[minimalistgrufti]

Bless and thank you to everyone who’s donated I have more than enough to pay for the memorial now it’s just daily expenses I need such as food and bills since I had to put those on the back burner to help my mom when she got sick so I’m pretty backed up so if anyone has anything to spare I’d appreciate it so much

Good news: I started working today and I already love it!

Bad news: thought my first pay check would be in two weeks but it won’t be for a month because while it’s a new pay period, the checks are two weeks behind so I won’t see anything until Sept. 15!

Worse news: my insurance benefits also don’t kick in for 90 days

Even worse news: unemployment STILL hasn’t reviewed my documents so there’s nothing

If y’all can give it a boost as even though I got a job I have no income coming in I love that for me.

Hello!

I've never done this before.

Due to the nature of my current job I decided to go on medical leave for an undetermined amount of time. I attempted suicide in late January of this year, and it has been difficult to recover from that. I am currently seeking affordable treatment, but it's so difficult to come by. I haven't been doing well, but I am trying to get better. I have about 1 month saved up for rent & car insurance, but because of how long EDD disability takes I will not have enough for the next few months. $600 is my goal since I'm going to use my last paycheck for next month's rent, gas, paying medical bills, and car insurance.

Here is my PayPal if anyone would like to help. Any amount helps.

Please reblog to spread. Thank you!!!!

[marinaiida-deactivated20220311]

how do you guys see a black person who's very clearly struggling and trying to run for their life and still assume they're some spoiled american trying to scam people. the BLM in your bio means jack shit if you do this.

[marinaiida-deactivated20220311]

because being american means im privileged somehow. as if the majority of people who are in poverty here aren't black. as if i wasn't already from an immigrant family who didn't have shit coming here. you guys have no shame.

[marinaiida-deactivated20220311]

amazing

[marinaiida-deactivated20220311]

please help me by the way im about to have almost nothing to my name with nowhere to go.

As many of you know I am a pre-licensed Black clinical therapist finishing up my last year of graduate school. Before I can sit for licensure and actually begin practicing I need to obtain several hundred clinical hours before graduation. If you are or know any therapists, you know these hours are unpaid and restrict you from working any kind of job to supplement that income.

I am a graduate and research assistant but I get paid a monthly salary that typically does not last the entire month. I am generally able to keep myself afloat despite this but after recent moving fees and other expected + unexpected expenses (getting a new car, having to rent a car for two weeks) my funds are still depleted.

If you’ve ever read and enjoyed my work, received any guidance from me directly or indirectly, or just would like to support me as a person it would be great if you could boost / help if possible. Whether I have been low on funds or comfortable financially I have always budgeted for mutual aid and community support because I know times are rough.

My Cash App is $Raevins and message me privately if you’d like to help another way.
