Trying to raise the remaining $1617 by my surgical date on October 23rd. No amount is too small. Appreciate boosting and quote-reposts for visibility.

Apologies, somehow the original was deleted. I'm undergoing my 3rd urgent, non-elective revision spinal fusion this Oct to replace & extend my hardware. I'd appreciate any help in achieving this goal to ensure I have the resources necessary to recover safely & fully.

Hey, Alaska's been hit by a typhoon and no one is talking about it. Indigenous towns are in need of aid. People are missing and the gov't is still shut down.

If any creators here are in affected areas, please drop links for aid.

Out here acting exactly like RFK re:autism and not seeing a problem. I'd say "why are they all like this" but I know why.

Lmao most adoptees have zero access to our actual birth certificates, as well as *not knowing where we were born*- you are fundamentally misunderstanding the issue

"During the encounter, Greeley said they told her she 'doesn’t look like' a Greeley."

www.yahoo.com/news/article...

Chicago Tribune: Greeley, who was born at Illinois Masonic hospital and is adopted, carries a copy of her passport just in case she runs into federal agents.

“I am Latina and I am a service worker,” Greeley said. “I fit the description of what they’re looking for now.”

During the encounter, Greeley said they told her she “doesn’t look like” a Greeley.

“They said this isn’t real, they kept telling me I’m lying, I’m a liar,” Greeley recalled. “I told them to look in the rest of my wallet, I have my credit cards, my insurance.”

Those often aren't accepted. Our birth certificates are falsified and don't look "normal" and adoption papers mean nothing to most agencies.

One might say that being transphobic is just another way of emulating the systems that sold us, but that'd mean y'all aren't as "unfogged" as ya think, wouldn't it? Ope. 🥚

Them: "Stop telling me the history of the fire, just help put it out!"

Me, already helping, notices things being done are the same that led to and continue to feed it.

"Uh, we need to stop doing this or the fire won't go out, it'll just get worse."

Them 😒: "Stop lecturing & help put it out."

agreed.
using other people as pavement on your life journey is actually not cool.
life is not a sandbox full of NPCs.

I have a balance for temporary shelter that needs to be resolved today in order for us to continue having shelter in place. We’re in need of about $782 and need this taken care of right now to refocus on overdue and time sensitive unmet needs.

I mean, I suppose, but in a way my life has always been rooted in isolation. It's just that everything folds into it and escape was always an illusion.

Another thing regarding mutual aid & who your community is, is a lot of disabled people in particular are very isolated. They're in deep poverty & complete abandonment. Literally. So they hop online to have community. Sometimes it's the only community they have & the only way they can get help.

Reposting. A friend sent 50 for mom. Other 45 went to her protein shakes bc she's barely 100lbs. She's really sick so may drag her to the hospital today. Thanks for kindness, ma still needs clothes, a lot but anything helps her get small stuff too like more clothes that fit from the thrift store etc
