watching the talented mr ripley on matt johnson's recommendation is crazy. why are you, as a man, so obsessed with this story where a gifted actor who can talk his way out of any situation becomes homoerotically fixated on a debonair musician who aimlessly drifts through life?
We are disabled and homeless and we need help. We desperately need to get a little over $1,000 for an apartment asap. People keep tagging out other post "d*nations" and its getting it fucked with by tumblr so im once again making a new one. Please donate, please reblog, we will not make it through the winter if we can't get this place.

We need money for a hotel this weekend, we don't have money to even book one for tomorrow night. People donate and reblog. Please don't tag as "d*nations" or anything similar, tumblr is blocking my posts.
We are dead broke and just lost a month of our most steady income and are going to loose another. We are getting nothing please reblog
I'm doing art for people who donate $50 or more to my friends! Just message me or my friend for more details!
Here's some examples of my work:
We have only gotten $50 which isn't enough for one night at a hotel here. Please share. We need money for the apartment and hotel tomorrow and we are so behind. Please. I don't even have protein for today, and I also urgently need a prescription I can't afford.
my sister & i are homeless. please, please help before it's too late.

we are queer, severely mentally ill sisters trying our best to make it through this but we are hemorrhaging money without a place to live. we are contacting as many places as possible but our options are limited with our small savings & only one of us has a job at the moment as we just moved back to the area. i have a promising interview on monday (7/12/21) but its no guarantee.
we were kicked out late last year by our severely abusive parents. i had to quit my job a bit before that time because i am immunocompromised & my sister was losing hours at the time because of the pandemic. she got covid & had to quit as well. we thought we would have a place to stay while we found better jobs when our parents became more & more aggressive & finally kicked us out, they "didn't care if we lived on the streets" with our dogs.
we have been couch surfing when we moved in with a family member a few months ago that took advantage of us immediately- gaslighting us, lying to us, guilting us to giving her money, abusing us, revealing her violent homophobia & ableism, just like our parents.
we finally escaped from that & just need to find a place to live now. we have barely been able to eat from stress, & "cheap" motel rooms (cheapest ones cost $100+ A NIGHT since it's summer in california) don't have microwaves at all, infrequently do they have fridges.
we are barely holding on physically or mentally. please help.
please help us stay afloat for motel rooms, food, & gas while we find housing.
please please please reblog even if you can't donate.

PSA FOR THOSE IN DC AREA - PLEASE STOP FEEDING BIRDS (JUNE 2021)
An unknown transmittable illness is wiping out many native birds. Bird feeders, particularly uncleaned ones, are a major transmitter of disease. Please take them down for the meantime! Your birds will survive naturally without it - the impact of your ‘help’ could be far worse!
A new mystery disease among animals that people are interacting with isn’t ominously scary at all.
Please enforce bird social distancing by closing bird restaurants
Excerpt from an email chain one of my profs forwarded to the vet school mailing list:
I wrote the letter that was attached to the email string (attaching it again here). Cases have now been seen from KY and TN up through NJ and PA, and as far west as OH and IN. Possible report of related cases in FL, but not confirmed. The epicenter is definitely D.C., with most of the cases coming in from there. It's only affected nestlings and fledglings, and cases have gone to multiple state labs as well as SCWDS, NWHC, and our lab at UPENN. We've found some bacteria in some cases, but not consistently enough to say that is the cause. We've also found pesticides in some, but it's mostly dieldrin, heptachlor, chlordane and trans arachlor, which have essentially been banned since the 1980's, so we're probably just picking up environmental background contamination. Tests are still on-going...no single smoking gun yet!
Cases are starting to slack off further south, and just picking up in N. PA and NJ, so it could be "moving" with the age of the birds (birds further south have fledged and are no longer susceptible???). It will be interesting to see if we experience a second wave as the next round of baby birds comes in...
That's about all I can tell you. We've been having weekly calls with USGS NWHC and the state agencies that are involved so far. They are working on another press release that will probably go out on Monday.
This isn't just the DC area anymore, it's spreading across the east coast.
I might recommend North Americans preemptively removing bird feeders even if you're outside the currently described range.
Most of the species affected have been omnivorous birds that favor insects. This coupled with the timing has caused many to theorize this is because of a bizarre fungal disease impacting the newly emerged brood X cicadas.
As of the last time I checked, there is no record of anyone successfully saving any of the afflicted birds.
I think like, the death of Vine and Rabbit, Wikipedia constantly needing to beg for money, Discord depending so heavily on venture capital, Facebook turning towards spying on users to generate a return on all the venture capital that got them started, Adobe creative suite turning into a subscription rather than a single product you buy, the strangulation of streaming entertainment as every company pulls their content and makes it exclusive to their service, are all great examples of how like, it really doesn't matter if something is legitimately useful, efficient, or beloved, it is next to impossible for a service to exist if it doesn't make shareholders increasing amounts of money year after year. Which may seem like a "no duh" type of statement, but it's a very simple window into how the profit motive makes products and services worse, not better. And how that's not just a matter of certain companies or ceos being bad and greedy on an individual level, but is an inescapable factor of an economy where existence is dependent on generating capital.
