hello is this thing on

I'm struggling not to have a meltdown at work lol

[txn1]

last week, I was an elected national delegate to the convention this week, I'm pawning birthday and Christmas gifts to pay for cab fare bc 1) I can't afford to get my car fixed 2) my account is negative and can't get uber/lyft 3) the bus stop is 9 miles from my house and it's 96 degrees out 4) I have family but picking me up is too big of a burden (even tho I offer to pay) ppl think I'm doing well but I'm actually really fucking struggling???????????? and I can't get a better job cuz I have a record (drug charges from when I was 13) and I don't have a degree (I've earned the credits I need but I owe $6k so my diploma is being withheld) i don't see the sun coming out any time soon lol

out of a field of 6 candidates (of whom I was the youngest by over 10 years) I was overwhelmingly elected to be a delegate to the democratic national convention! but as such, I need to raise money to fund it (the hotel alone costs $2k) even if it's just $5, id greatly appreciate if you could chip in to help me in this historic event! (&if you do, dm me your address so I can send you a thank you note--if you'd like)

Demi’s that type of person who’d whine and ask why she wasn’t in your top friends list on MySpace

interracial relationships are cute if they aren’t built upon racial fetishes and self-hatred.

After ICE Took An Undocumented Grandfather Into Custody, An Immigrant Advocate Mobilized Thousands

Apolinar Sanchez Cornejo is a 67-year-old undocumented grandfather from Mexico who has lived in California since 1992 and works in an auto repair shop. Last week, Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents took him into custody in an early morning raid at his house. By noon, Sanchez Cornejo was put into deportation proceedings.

“In 2012, the Obama administration deported 409,849 undocumented [people], the highest number of deportations on record so far. Overall, 1.5 million undocumented [people] were deported in President Obama’s first term. And while deportations break families apart, it is hardest on children, especially those born in the United States who regularly stay behind when their parents or guardians are deported. The number of children left without guardians has tripled in the last five years, from 8,041 in 2008 to 24,481 children in 2012, and these numbers may represent only a fraction of the total number.”
