All we need is $75 to close this out. Three people at $25 each or 5 people at $15 each or 10 people at $7.50 each. Cashapp in thread (recipient does not have PayPal). If you can donate the whole $75, please let Aji know that you've closed it out.
Okay, folks, we have an EMERGENCY kind of emergency.

Local family already having trouble making ends meet; husband was horribly injured on the job and wife is now full-time caregiver while they await a surgery date.

She's short half the rent for Monday.

Ed is looking for a holiday present for a business client, and is extremely bored with the usual soulless executive gifts and about to give up when he runs across a little shop called Stede Bonnet's Fancy Nuts -

choccy chip pecan pie is in the oven
only a handful of mishaps so far, mostly me overestimating how much filling a 9" 'deep dish' pie crust would hold - insufficient, it turns out, for a 'deep dish' pie recipe
I made a mess
but hopefully it will still be delicious

"Don't follow illegal orders" would be more meaningful if Democrats had prosecuted literally any of the prominent war criminals of the last 30 years instead of, you know, fucking campaigning with them

Stede Bonnet old money fallen on hard times, butler for nouvea riche enfant terrible Ed Teach, and the extremely discreet but torrid behind closed doors affair they fall intot
rich dudes got freakier after butlers fell out of fashion, like say what you will about having domestic servants but clearly it was some sort of moderating force on old rich dudes having a fancy man follow you around saying shit like "oh dear sir, that wouldn't be very becoming"

recurring Mari_who fic things:

all I can really think of is changing the circumstances of Ed's parents' deaths or separation

I guess past and present substance abuse and related trauma, Stede emotional whump, both boys thinking they don't deserve each other, lots of food stuff
recurring bryn fic things: cigarettes, the central valley, the ‘70s, entirely too much research, long sentences with complicated punctuation, things you can taste/see/touch/smell/hear, probably a country song title
recurring abs fic things: oatmilk, stede gets nose kisses, dolphin hatred, men crying, no sex at the climax even if its rated E, no caps on proper nouns, “this rocks”, repeating homonyms or two words spelled the same that mean something different, hm tell me if i missed any or quote w ur own!

It's absolutely disgusting what the New York Times, and particularly Azeen Ghorayshi, is doing with its coverage of autism. It's so deeply irresponsible.

It's the same playbook they ran on trans kids.

I officially have Luna's cardiology appointment scheduled, and the estimate for the appointment which is $964-$1201. I don't know what the best way is to raise money for the appointment. Luna is the last one of his litter, both of his siblings passed from heart failure since Halloween.
