Welcome, welcome. leave your Squids at the door.

I gave her a plastic bag to tie around her head while she lays on the couch cause I don't know how they work but just the thought of lil bugs crawling up my ass while sitting down on the couch is giving me the ick

Now I can't sleep cause I feel uncomfortable cause I know there's fucking lice in here with us . Damnit man 🥹

I hope I don't make her feel weird about me not wanting to have her close ... Like I don't mean it I just don't want to get lice too . Like I feel like an asshole for feeling like that but I never seen that shit in real life before at first I thought it was dandruff but nope them there is bugs on bugs on bugs .

I'm really worried about that lice spreading 😟. I wanna nip it in the butt before it becomes a more expensive problem. 1 treatment is cheaper than 3. So I hope I get help soon this is a contagious issue

I'm so damn uncomfortable every time I go to close my eyes I see the lice in my head . Like I wanna make sure that plastic bag doesn't come off her head so I'll be watching her sleep like a hawk .

It's making me paranoid like I can't afford the 1 treatment how the fuck am I gonna pay for 3 if it spreads. I don't wanna give it the opportunity to do that . I wrapped my head up tight and I woke my daughter up to put a scrap on hers

The stress and emotional drainage I've been dealing with especially from the death of my son has caused me to not really take care of myself too well I've missed taking my meds like crazy to the point where I was watching this old news special about HIV and that made me jump up and take my meds. I've been feeling out of it and weak a lot. I have to remind myself that I'm living with 2 different strains of HIV now I can't be fucking missing my meds the way I have. My concern is for my kids when they are straight I'm usually so exhausted after that I get whatever sleep I can. I gotta take care of myself better for the sake of them cause if I get sick they have no one for them. I worry a lot and that's not good either the stress alone that I put on myself plus not taking my meds properly would not be good for me. I'm always tired now and my body is constantly in some type of pain somewhere on it. I wanna live a long and healthy life one day I hope it's without all these extra issues cause they do make me insane when in asking but I have to for the sake of my kids. I don't care about myself it's all about them . I beg people to please go easy on me . I don't mean to be annoying but I have no one in the world to turn to . I hate begging . I remember their was a time that I didn't have to do that .this time last year I had a good job . And a good life and I was taking care of myself mind, body and soul. This year has been brutal for me . And it's wearing my down health wise .... I don't know I just want to be understood about my motivations that's all.

I don't want to be unprepared in case this may happen again I hope it won't but I don't wanna be left open so I wanted to get a second lice treatment to keep in the house. Just in case I wanna be prepared. Lord i never knew this would be something that I would have to . I'm learning as I go and got my lil first aid shelves stocking up I wanna add a lice treatment as well to it . And since this is my first time doing this I might need a back up in case I fuck something up 😑. I just rather be safe than sorry ya know

$40 for a second lice treatment to keep in the house in case this happens again I wanna be prepared or if I do something wrong doing with this one cause this is my first time applying this stuff .

Update: 3;17 pm

I got the help now I need to machine wash and dry in high heat all the clothing and bedding she came in contact with to kill any possible lice eggs

$30 for washing to kill possible lice eggs

Hit post limit can I please get help by reblogging

Sorry just wanna say that if I don't wash the clothing and bedding that potentially have lice eggs it would defeat the purpose of putting treatment in my nieces hair cause they would hatch and the process would just start all over again. So it's recommended that u wash all clothing and bedding that may be contaminated. So I really need to wash these things out to stop it in its tracks

I wanted to go to Bronx works today to get some employment information but this whole life situation has taken over my whole day 😕. I'm trying my best to deal with it but I don't even wanna sit on my couch I've been sitting on the window ledge and even then I put down a plastic bag on it before I sat down cause ive been having to do a deep inspection of the house I come to take a break cause my back is killing me . Oh boy ... I can't even sit on my own couch

I have a pile of couch covers , towels , clothes , pillows, blanket, sheets in the middle of the floor that I'm about to put a clear plastic bag to i hopefully get to wash . I really pray that someone allows me to do that cause I don't wanna have to be right back in the same place in a couple week

I'm mentally and physically tired at this point fuck it if we get lice it's whatever my mind is so exhausted. Just to find money to kill lice eggs . This is a lot my brain is breaking . If I can't wash it s whatever i deserve to get lice. I haven't slept . I'm going on fumes at this point . I'm defeated.

I've been trying to solve this issue for over 13 hours at this point that's a lot of time. I couldn't even go to get employment services today because this consumed my whole day . I fucking hate my life bro.

The only thing that makes me sad is my kids having to deal with this issue cause when those eggs hatch she's gonna have to deal with that again and my daughter is gonna have to deal with it for the first time. They don't deserve that doing the best I can ain't enough..

i hate the way fat antagonists have their weight moralized and used as a metaphor for greed and corruption and i hate the way it's overcorrected into fat people being "soft squishy friend-shaped cupcakes who look like they give incredible hugs" and i long for the day we have nuanced, interesting, and complicated fat characters and most of all i long for the day people are normal about fatness

i'm never going to stop feeling mad and betrayed about how level 1/"low support needs" autistics have become the face of autism and gleefully use their privilege over l2/3s to talk over us, pretend we don't exist, and use the slur used to hurt US while pretending it's their word to say. while level 2-3 and "high support needs" autistics have been so erased that a lot of people don't remember we exist anymore and blame us for our symptoms. i've never met a level 2 or 3 autistic who wanted to say the r word. everyone i know like me hates it because it hurts. level 1s can't accept that there are people who are really more disabled by their autism than them TO THE POINT WHERE THEY KEEP SAYING HOW AUTISM ISNT A DISABILITY it's so frustrating!!!! aspie supremacy is a disease. support ppl with high support needs

as a regular donor to Gaza Soup Kitchen I get their email updates, and they said today that while they've continued to be able to expand, donations are slowing down as Gaza gets less coverage. If you have a few dollars to spare, I encourage you to send them here to continue the amazing work that Hani and his team are doing.

I AM STILL IN PAIN. NOTHING IS IMPROVING.

I am still starving, exhausted, and terrified I may not wake up one day. Please don’t ignore this.

Guys… I say this with a broken heart. Severe malnutrition caused by hunger in Gaza may take my life.

What terrifies me most is leaving my little siblings alone in this nightmare.

IF I DIE, PLEASE HELP MY FAMILY SURVIVE AFTER ME.

Stop scrolling my wife is dying in front of my eyes and I cannot stop it.

Her condition is getting worse every day. Her body is collapsing because she has not yet received the urgent blood units and medical treatment she needs to survive.

I saw her lose consciousness after everything our daughter Lama has been going through. One moment she was standing with me and the next she collapsed in my arms. I cannot forget that moment.

I am not asking for comfort. I am telling you that I am losing my wife while I stand completely helpless beside her.

Every hour without treatment is bringing her closer to death. I can see it happening and I cannot stop it alone.

Please do not scroll past this. Do not wait until it becomes a message of loss.

She urgently needs treatment, blood units, and medical care right now.

Help us before it is too late. Your donation and share might be the reason she survives.

URGENT!! $700 NEEDED THIS WEEK TO SAVE A BABY!!

Chuffed link

Raneen, @a00h2, is my friend. She is trapped in Gaza, Palestine, with her family. She lost everything in the bombings and is now in poverty and homelessness. Her 1-year-old baby is in a respirator; he has very dangerous lung cancer. There is no treatment in Gaza that can save him. She needs to pay $700 more before next week to get the baby out of Gaza, so he can receive proper treatment.

My friend doesn't have that money. She can't help him alone. Please, I beg you, don't just reblog. Donate, whatever you can. $40, $20, $10, $5, whatever you can, it will all be useful. Thank you so much.

Her account is vetted by @90-ghost here, by @gazavetters (#576) , and by @bilal-salah0. This Chuffed fundraiser goes directly to her; for transparency, you can dm @a00h2 if you want to confirm it.

PLEASE, HELP SAVE THE LIFE OF MY FRIENDS' BABY!!

$4,700/$5,400

ONLY $700 NEEDED!!

it's the final day again for ammar's injection and my hopes are, bluntly, extremely slim.

we didn't even manage to raise the money for his immune globulin injection last week, and we are now, on top of that, about $1k in debt to the doctor for the iv fluids he had to take for that.

that has to be paid for in conjunction with his urgent digoxin injection, which he will die without, which means the minimum amount we have to raise by tuesday 4 pm gaza time is $2,129.

i am really not feeling optimistic, because we had to urgently evacuate the family last week from israel's active bombing and no one cared enough to contribute almost any donation at all, even as small as $5 - only a small handful of people chipped in.

if we don't get this money before the end of tuesday, ammar will need over $6k, as it will include an intensive injection on top of everything we already have to pay

and i know we're not going to get that, so really what will happen is he will die

i don't know what i can say to convince you to help keep him alive, but i beg you not to let israel successfully kill him

Today in australia they started senate hearings on the bill the government hopes will make enough disabled people die or disappear to make us all less irritatingly expensive for them. We had two weeks to submit feedback on over 400 pages of complicated legal terms. They don't care what we have to say and they don’t care that this will kill people and disenfranchise disabled people across the country.

There are 760,000 Australians on the National Disability Insurance Scheme, the system that - if they feel like it and your personalised plan says you get to have it - provides funding for everything from personal hygiene care to support workers to therapies to assistive technology. It's already very hard for disabled people to get on the NDIS, regardless of your disability. It's near impossible to access most support and equipment without being on the NDIS. And the government has announced that they want that number to drop to 600,000 in four years. 160,000 of us cut off the Scheme - and countless more denied access. This will cause deaths. People will die and people will suffer because there is no safety net. The NDIS is the only option for most of us. Even private health insurance doesn't cover most of these things. Nobody will swoop in to save us.

The bill wants to give the (non disabled!) NDIS minister basically unlimited power to cut our funding. They're already planning what they'd do with that power. What rights they'll strip from us. What dignity and freedom they'll remove to make their budget look better.

The bill wants to force people to try every treatment out there before they're allowed to be on the NDIS. Including if the treatment is literally impossible to access. There’s a lot of us living in regional areas or out bush who can't just pop to the capital cities for specialists. This will especially hurt disabled First Nations people in regional and remote communities, who already experience limited access to healthcare. Oh, and it includes chemical restraint, too. The government has directly refused to exclude chemical restraint from the required process, calling it "trialling medication".

If you're australian and worried, the ABC did a good breakdown of the proposed changes.

I know australia stuff doesn't really pop up on the radar on this site, but I want everyone to know what's going on. What we're fighting for here. Your australian disabled friends might be NDIS participants fearing for their life, rights, and freedom. They might not be a participant and afraid these changes mean they never will have access. We deserve better. The government built a system with no backup plan, and now they want hundreds of thousands of disabled people to pay the price for their bad planning.

Sorry we're too expensive to have rights, I guess.

thinking about the time a former housemate said to me "hey I put these box fans in the living room because it's hot" while gesturing to the fans that I was actively sitting in front of because it was hot. and I said "okay thanks." and she kept standing there like she was waiting for something else so I said "am I blocking the airflow? do you need me to move?" and she said no I'm just letting you know they're here, in the living room, for circulation. and I said well yes, I did put that together. I am enjoying them. thank you. and she looked confused. so I asked "am I meant to do something with this information or are you just informing me?" and she said no I'm letting you know they're here because It's Hot In Here. she seemed a bit aggravated, and her emphasis seemed deliberate.

it took me asking three more times before she finally told me she wanted me to leave the fans where they are instead of moving them to my room or something. and I said oh! I had no intention of doing so but thank you for letting me know what the expectation is.

about a month later she brought up that conversation as the moment it actually clicked for her that I Am Autistic And Will Not Magically Intuit The Unspoken Request You Didn't Ask Me.

mothric

I have observed enough allistic communication to know that generally, if somebody points something out to you that you can already see or are already clearly interacting with, they are making an indirect request. but as I don't know what the request is, the only way forward is for me to guess (and likely get it wrong), or prompt the allistic to tell me clearly what they need.

however, allistics don't realize they do this, so asking them to say the unspoken surprises and confuses them. this is not their fault. allistics can be quite emotionally fragile and perceive directness as confrontation, so they habitually rely on indirect speech and coded language to preserve others' feelings. this is why they may find it difficult to be direct, even when asked. I have found that with enough gentle encouragement and reassurance that they are actually helping you, you too can achieve successful communication with your allistic friend or loved one. :)

Hello friends 💗Thank you all for your continued support. I am very sorry to tell you that we recently experienced heavy shelling near us.

As a result, we lost everything. My handmade crochet work was burned and destroyed, and now I have to raise money again to buy the basic supplies I need, including crochet hooks, yarn, and threads.

The prices have become extremely high. Right now, I need only $200 to purchase the essential materials and start creating new pieces again.

You can see my previous work on my crochet Instagram page, and you are welcome to message me there if you would like.click here

Please support me in any way you can. If you cannot donate, please consider sharing my story and talking about it with others.

Even $15–$20 could make a real difference in my life.

Thank you for your kindness and support. ❤️

You can watch the video of the shelling through this link.

These are some of my previous handmade creations. I miss being able to make pieces like these again.

The world could be so beautiful

If anything happens to my father, I will not forgive anyone. My father's pain has intensified, and he is currently in Al-Shifa Hospital, staying overnight while awaiting his turn for surgery. It may take a long time, and my father's health condition does not allow him to wait much longer. His suffering worsens every second, and the cost of his hospital stay until the surgery is beyond our means.

My father has been battling cancer for a year, and his health is deteriorating daily. He hasn't received proper and regular treatment due to the war, the closure of the crossings, and the denial of medication. My father cannot endure much longer and must be evacuated immediately from Gaza. This is very expensive and will take a long time, and we might lose him before then.

The only solution available now in Gaza is to receive treatment and undergo surgeries approximately every three months. I don't want to see my father die before my eyes. Please help us and donate to save my father. Please donate now. We cannot afford all these costs of medicine and surgeries. Please donate to save him.

Important research for a story I'm writing! Not real life, never real life.

You are transported back in time and into the body of a young noblewoman in the 1400s. Your parents have married you off to an awful, abusive, rapist husband whom literally no one else would marry despite him being very high nobility because he's that terrible. You successfully produce a baby boy and then plan to murder this man for the good of everyone and yourself. Here is the question: do you think you could murder him in a way that is undetectable to the historical people around you? Note: they aren't stupid, you are the prime suspect as the battered wife AND you can't just say poison. Where are you going to buy poison? Do you know anything about poison actually? NO GOOGLING! You were sent back without a plan!

Do you think you could murder someone in the 1400s and get away with it with your modern know-how?

Yes, I totally have a plan (tell me for research purposes)

No, I realize that I'm very uninformed about murder

I have some ideas but I'm not sure they would work

Remaining time: 5 hours 6 minutes

Edit: my notes are full of murder. I love you all

Edit: to clarify about the poison, you can use poison if you actually know how to identify it, I'm saying you can't just go "Poison!" with no knowledge about poison. Buying it probably means they know that poison and you're caught. Your personal knowledge when you read this post is all you have.

Another point of clarity: You went through all that trouble to have a baby without modern medicine so you could get the sweet house after your husband died. That's why you can't be caught. No disappearing.

Edit again: Air embolisms are going on a high shelf because the syringe won't be invented for 350 years. Prove to me that you could make one from scratch, lol

I promise to stop making edits (lol): I left the country vague because I just wanted to see ideas for modern vs. past. Whatever place you are most knowledgeable about

Oh no, she edits again: This man is like 25, not very old. He's not dying of natural causes or even alcohol consumption any time soon. Imagine a university student liver.
