If it was possible to like work part time and afford a place on your own anywhere it would change everything like the lives that would flourish the art that would be getting made the ideas and love and beauty that would be expressed it would change the world and they donât want thatâŚ. They do not want that at all
just saw a post where OP called themself a piece of shit for not being good at keeping in contact with friends & yknow i think a lot abt how it's only in the past 100 years we could maintain closeness over a distance & only in the past 30 we could form closeness over a distance & maybe we shld cut ourselves some slack for it being weird n difficult. like for 99% of human existence if someone wasn't in easy travelling distance it was logistically impossible to stay in close contact. i can message my friends on the other side of the globe at any time! if i was born even a hundred years earlier i never wouldve known they existed! holding people in your heart when you never see them in person is a very new development!
I hate to make a post like this so soon, but Iâm in dire need of help. If everyone who reblogged donated a dollar I could be out of the negative in no time. I have cats to feed, groceries to buy, bills to pay, etc. Needless to say, I am beyond stressed right now. Any reblogs, donations, boosts, are much appreciated! đââď¸đ
I appreciate all the donations so far immensely, it means so so much to me you have no idea! But unfortunately, Iâm still in the red. Any help, even reblogs are appreciated, thank you! :(
hi guys i hope you all are doing good! my mother passed away yesterday and as of right now iâm unsure if my current living situation will continue. i donât make enough for rent every month on my own and i wonât receive any of my mothers disability checks. i have enough money to last me for the rest of next month for rent only if i end up having to pay it but iâll have no extra money for food or other living necessities because my check every two weeks would be towards the 4 other bills i have. i would appreciate anything at all, just enough money for me to not have to starve every month would be really great, or if i get kicked out and have to find somewhere else to live. i love you guys so much stay safe. â¤ď¸
Hello everyone! I was out of work for over 2 months and need a bit of help paying our rent this month. I care for my disabled dad and we were already on a strict income before I lost my job.Â
Our rent is due the first of the month - $830. Anything will help!! Thank you!!
Hi I'm Mikha a baal teshuvah jew who wants to become more observant SO bad. I'm also disabled and can not work during a pandemic, so i can't afford most judaica... i also have no (functional) shul near me. If anyone has the ability to help me out, I'd be so greatful, I'm gonna link my Amazon wishlist. Reblogs are greatly appreciated đđ
THERE IS A VOTING MISINFORMATION POST GOING AROUND.
 It looks like this:
THIS IS NOT TRUE. Voting laws vary state to state, and in someâsuch as North Carolinaâpoll workers actually HAVE to mark your ballot in order for it to be counted. If you pick a fight with poll workers about them marking your ballot in one of these states, YOU WILL LOOK VERY SILLY AND MAY GET IN TROUBLE.
Snopes has done a piece discounting this misinformational post and others like it. Tumblr doesnât like links, but google âSnopes handwriting ballots invalidatedâ and it will come right up. Here are screenshots of the article. I will reply to to this post with a direct link to the article.
Please read up on your local voting laws. Donât be fooled by seemingly well-intentioned posts that rely on your trust and ignorance to succeed. If it doesnât have a source, try to do some research before you spread it around.
And, uh, please consider spreading this sourced post around, because I donât want people potentially getting kicked out of the polling place over this.
Hi everyone. I've been AWOL a bit because things have just been extremely hard and it's been incredibly hard to process things mentally and emotionally and I haven't wanted to talk much. I've been a little more active on Twitter lately so I'm willing to give that to any mutuals.
I got rent and my utility deposit paid but I'm in an extreme bind with my storage unit. Due to late payments and a non-existant payment this month, they've cut my lock to get ready for auction and added on a bunch of auction fees. Currently I owe around $400~ but they said I could get a payment plan to evacuate it (which is what I need anyways, I never planned on having it this long). Of course, I also don't know how I'll empty it so that's another problem for another day.
I'm currently $100 behind on a fine I owe as well. I'm currently late my 2nd month. This is a little more immediate as my license could be suspended. ((Not like i have a car to drive lmao))
Those are the only 2 things i currently need help with although rent and everything is coming up too. But I currently need $500 to avoid losing my possessions and avoiding legal trouble.
I could really use some help with groceries and stuff too. I have a lot of sauces and broth type stuff and a friend has a farm so i have some apples and potatoes but I'd really like to get some cheap meat or something so I could make some meals and I need some cat litter now too :/
To make things worse, my mom has been talking about coming to get some stuff from it maybe this summer or spring so I REALLY can't afford to have it go to auction.
wish there were some unseen omnipotent voice shouting âWARMERâ or âCOLDERâ everytime i make a decision because i am pretty much flying blind here
Taylor Simmons Left With Huge Medical Bills After Psych Ward Stay I have dealt with the debilitating effects of depression & suicidal id
I have dealt with the debilitating effects of depression & suicidal ideation for as long as I can remember & before i had learned the language to articulate what i was feeling, or lack thereof. Iâve had a harrowing and difficult year and a not so stable upbringing that have left indelible marks on my mental health & ability to cope with the challenges life throws at me.
Iâve been struggling on my own with these issues for a long time, not having the resources or access to get help with my mental health and Iâve tried to adapt as what many of my Black foremothers have done when it comes to experiencing the extremes of sadness & other ânegativeâ emotions; push past it, hide it, and move on.
As Solange had aptly once sang in Cranes In The Sky,
âI tried to drink it away
I tried to put one in the air
I tried to dance it away
I tried to change it with my hairâ
In my case, i tried blogging out what i couldnât speak aloud, reading and fantasizing, disassociating and gaming, laughing and eating it away. All the things I felt I needed to do to be normal but I still cracked.
Unfortunately, as of very recently in November, i failed in that endeavor and tried to take my own life.
The ambulance was called and I was involuntarily hospitalized and stayed at a psych ward for a few days and got a taste of the help I have truly needed.
Iâm on antidepressants now and while theyâve helped a lot in managing my mood, i still feel complex about still being here.
As of right now I dont have insurance and am in the process of applying for Medi-Cal to offset some of the cost of the medical bills from my ambulance ride and psych ward stay (as well as to get me consistent psychiatric help so that iâll have the tools necessary to avoid hurting myself again in the future).
Thank you to everyone who has sent me encouraging and loving messages in the past month and have supported me by reposting and donating. I really want to thank everybody who have felt moved enough to tell me they relate and have shown me that I am not alone in this. For sharing that my candidness has helped them through their own depression.
saw someone say âa lot of men donât actually want to participate in raising their children, they just like the aesthetic of having a familyâ and god that is so true
Ok so last week I was hanging out with a friend and he told me that, when he was a child, he used to have a vhs tape with some random tv shows on it. And he says, âyou know that sheep gif? that show was on the vhs, but I canât remember how it was called, and google isnât helping.â so we spent the weekend trying to find it, and we did! anyways the video was made by a cult
