How DARE you compare me to a N*zi?

I can barely pay my own bills. I am disabled, on low income, and have next to nothing by the time I take care of my expenses. I'm not going to give what little funds I have left to a stranger on the internet when I can't be sure that it will actually be used for what they say it's for. I'll shove what little I have into savings. I'll use it for emergencies.

That said, I DO care about other people. I DO give to people in need. I give to people in my community no matter what they look like. I make sure that unwanted but perfectly good foods end up in food banks and soup kitchens or I hand it to homeless people. I put old books and clothes in donation bins. I talk to my mental health workers and give things to group homes in the mental health system.

I help people who are in the same boat as I am. I help my neighbors.

That's all I'm going to say on this matter. I've wasted enough time and I'm going to get back to having fun on my FANDOM blog that is NOT a charity and is not a space for people to ask for money. Gazans would realize that if they actually took the time to read instead of immediately zeroing in on my ask button and spamming me. They get blocked/reported because I get five of them in a week!

Bet you felt real big, bullying and name-calling a disabled person.

You've been blocked on my fandom blog, @beaut-ful-d-saster-1986, for personally attacking me and I am about to block you here, too.

Maybe think before you assume, next time.

I'm starting to feel callous for saying this:

Please, Please, Please, if you are in a situation where you need money or have a go-fund-me started, DO NOT send people asks about it.

Make a post with places to donate instead, spread awareness through reblogs, but don't go into strangers DMs or Ask Boxes soliciting donations. It makes you look like a bot, not a real person needing help.

The big scam one I'm seeing right now is individuals "in Gaza" asking for donations. Before Gaza they said the donations were because of an illness. Bots/scammers are using Gaza to pull at your heartstrings and scam you.

Donate to places you can trust. Like Amnesty International, Free The Children/WE Charities, UN Crisis Relief, Red Cross, etc. Places you know are credible.

I feel callous for deleting/blocking/reporting asks like that but just know it is a scam. It's using your empathy against you. Do not fall for those asks. Donate to causes, raise awareness, but delete and block those asks/dms because they are not real people. it's the same copy/pasted story on each one. Do your research before donating and be safe online.
