Help me buy new glasses

I've been job hunting since last November. My current job at a charity that barely pays me have no more funding and if they can't secure funding by September I'll be out of the only job I have right now. Therefore, im trying to be careful with money as much as I can right now, especially with the uncertainty of my ongoing family situation and costs that could arise for further legal help.

My glasses prescription has changed and ive been holding off from buying new glasses because of the cost, but unfortunately I can feel the strain its causing my eyes more and more since April. If anybody can help that would be great.

Pay Iffat Ahmad using PayPal.Me

Go to paypal.me/iffiia and type in the amount. Since it’s PayPal, it's easy and secure. Don’t have a PayPal account? No worries.

£170 should be enough to cover a good portion of the cost for the frames and lense.

£0/£170

Uncle, how to get to the beautiful country? by Xiaoyu Wang

[elizabethanism]

Poem by the 12thc warrior poet Xin Qiji 辛棄疾, who was sidelined during peacetime, demoted, drifting through a decade of minor posts in remote lands.

Poetry, then, as that which is left unsaid.

“My, what a cool and lovely autumn.”

[spookfished]

this poem was translated by eileen chengyin chow, or @chowleen on twitter and tumblr! im not sure why the translators attribution was specifically cut out here:

[chowleen]

A young friend told me he came across my translation on tumblr. He was a bit indignant that someone had removed my name from a poem.

Me: my Tumblr is still out there?? Anyhow, I took a look. It's been years. I do miss Tumblr from the olden days: poems, art, photos, fandom, cats, even the hentai.

hey not to advertise these twats (so don't look them up) but some absolute fucks in paris allegedly created a service where you can "rent air conditioning" (taking advantage of a climate apocalypse) and they make you pay 700€ a month for AC that costs 200€ for life.

[journal article from Le Parisien that reads: "renting instead of buying AC, the good deal proposed by [Don't-Look-Them-Up] mid-heatwave.

Since the start of the summer, acquiring an AC has been challenging. To answer to buyers who are faced with empty storefronts, [Don't-Look-Them-Up] has found a trick: the punctual rental of cooling units."]

ahem. and the review

[One-Star Review: Crooks that profit off of people's distress. He made me an offer for a 9000 BTu AC unit (valued at 280€) for 750€ per month. To avoid.]

[schakira]

they admitted in a video that they bought all the AC units DURING A BIG HEATWAVE all over Paris to empty all stocks, so that people would rely on them to get AC.

there were 3000 deaths due to the heatwave.
