#Care for Elderly

[toprated-social-media-manager]

Mon Anthony Era established the Antonio Foundation for Elderly People in memory of his father who passed away on August 28, 2021.

Mon deeply loves his father and does not want to forget him, so he named the foundation after him to keep his father's memory alive for himself and those who love him.

The purpose of this program is to provide financial assistance to the elderly. Many elderly individuals are neglected and in need of help, especially here in the Philippines.

Mon funds this program using his salary as a social media manager working for various companies in different countries. No one else or group assists him; he is solely responsible for funding it.

For Mon, it is crucial that we help to the best of our ability, and one doesn't need to be wealthy to make a difference.

Mon established the foundation in March 2023, and until now, it continues to provide financial assistance to those in need.

If you want to support Ukrainians, DO NOT donate to Red Cross. Can't speak about their work in other countries, but they're useless in Ukraine. The only trustworthy international organisation I can think of is World Central Kitchen.

Donate to World Central Kitchen

And it's even better to donate directly to Ukrainian organisations. Here are a few good legit places:

hospitallers.life - "Hospitallers", Ukrainian paramedics on the frontlines

savelife.in.ua - "Come Back Alive", assistance to the army

prytulafoundation.org - "Prytula Foundation", assistance to the army, humanitarian causes

starenki.com.ua - "Starenki", helping elderly people

everybodycan.com.ua - "Everybody Can", helping disabled children, elders and hospitals

uanimals.org - "UAnimals", saving animals

We Do Owe Them

I just read something that bothers me greatly. A post by a friend of mine discussing something they read this morning. According to my friend, the post he read was someone saying that we should abandon our parents and grandparents when they get old or ill. That we owed them nothing. I am paraphrasing here but this was the main point. Before I go further, I will state this. I do realize that not…

tragic that even with how lackluster the umbrella academy’s final season was, we never got to see five’s house.

i want to see where the old man lives. how does he decorate? does he live in an apartment or was he able to figure out a cute little home for himself? does he have roommates? did he ever learn how to cook for himself, or does he just eat fluffernutters whenever he’s hungry? does he ever get a mr. pennycrumb of his own? (i know he doesn’t, but a girl can dream) does he ever discover a cafe near his home where a decent cup of coffee can be found?

what coffee maker does he have? where does he buy his coffee grounds? how many coffee mugs does he have? i just KNOW he collects them.

he absolutely goes into little shops downtown and finds one that says some stupid shit like “if my coffee isn’t as black as my soul, i’m not drinking it” and giggles to himself in the corner and then spends way too much money on it because it’s just too good to pass up. he’ll smile to himself on the way home and then put on a pot of coffee to try it out for the first time. he hand-washes his mugs even though they’re all dishwasher safe because he wants to make sure they’re going to be completely untarnished when he wants to use them again. he has an entire cabinet for all of his mugs and one other cabinet for the rest of his glasses and bowls and plates because he doesn’t own a whole lot but he does like mugs. and someone will ask him about his mugs and he’ll properly tell them where he got each and every one, down to exact dates and times because he remembers everything and thinking about when he found his favorite mugs makes him feel less stressed. and whoever asked will not get a single word in and they won’t try to because five is talking about his mugs and he doesn’t get a whole lot of joy from material things but it is the simple things that matter. and five likes the simple things. and five likes his mugs.

Don't let republicans fool you with their national populism cause they do not give a single care for veterans who died and suffered for America. They would hollow out the VA and fill it corporate and political stooges who would blindly follow the GOP's bidding. Our government doesn't care enough for veterans and here we have Republicans confirming it, remember it was Biden who passed the CARE act. So remember a future where our soldiers suffer more than they already do is what the Republicans want.

Moze is initially apprehensive about your and Jiaoqiu's relationship. Not because you're not good for him. You are. You make him smile, you make him laugh, you bring him fresh groceries when he has a hard time leaving the house, you make sure he doesn't just rot in bed all day (although you happily join him for this too). But as Moze comes to acknowledge his past, as he understands more about what it means to have people to care about and who truly care about you, he realizes how hard it is to live without people who mean so much. And if something happens to one of you, will the other survive?

It leaves Moze feeling confused. Is this jealousy? That losing one of you might mean losing you both, without care for what happens to the rest of them.

On some level, you all live dangerous lives, even if Jiaoqiu doesn't work for anyone but Feixiao anymore and diviners are fairly well guarded when they are near the battlefield. Moze knows it won't happen yet, that you are not yet so tied together, but he worries for Jiaoqiu and his fragile heart.

Moze remains his reticent self when Jiaoqiu talks about you, or when you talk about Jiaoqiu. You are undeniably good for him, and Moze can, with fond begrudging, admit Jiaoqiu is good for you too. And slowly, Moze's apprehension transforms into a more worn, tired worry touched with curiosity.

For so many years, stronger feelings have felt burned out of him. With no one to respond to his cries, they had died before they could lay half-formed in his chest. And although it is a gentle thing, the love between you and Jiaoqiu is strong enough to make Moze unsure. All he can do is keep you alive when he can. For Jiaoqiu's sake. He's not willing to let a thing like love keep you all from sharing the life you have been given.

conservatives have simply got to stop making these standard issue democrats seem so based and cool

The bourgeois or "exploiting class" doesn't inherently include the person who gets their nails done biweekly, or the disabled person who has a carer, or the guy who got a $70 video game for full-price, or the person who relies on medication (yes even the ones you don't think they "need"), or anything else like this. None of these people will, on average, have the ability to exploit workers by means of ownership or whatever.

While you are busy fighting with fellow workers, you are still being exploited by your boss, by capitalism, by (potentially) not having healthcare, by being overworked and underpaid, and so are they.

[youngpeachenthusiast]

kind of a vent under the cut but i wanted to ask does anyone have any advice when it comes to elderly care and specifically dementia and loss of physical autonomy??

have been stepping up a lot to help my mother care for my grandfather in the past few months and it is taking a big big toll on me. i'm happy to help and even if i weren't i'd still have to because my mom is less than a step away from having a massive breakdown and uh..... i'd rather not but um. the responsibility is taking its toll to be honest.

i am not physically strong enough to lift and move him a lot of the time when it is needed so i'm expending all of my energy (not even mentioning that i have a chronic illness myself) and i do not have much knowledge on dementia care so i'm always grasping at straws trying to figure out how to talk to him. he's not eligible for either a nursing home or financial help with carers because they won't give us disability and we do not have the means to get him proper care on our own. this just really sucks and i'm heartbroken that he isn't getting the care he deserves but i have no idea how to make it better.

the most i can honestly do is try to offer some kindness and positivity, i've been reading picture books with him and stuff, but other than that i feel really tired and helpless

Former street cat named Trashmouth who slept in our warm basement at night is now full time indoor housecat with Bailey's passing. So far:

-already caught and killed a mouse?!?

-snuck up onto the counter, into the sink, and took a huge bite of the defrosting Thanksgiving chicken I was planning to serve my evil mother-in-law tomorrow

Good girl, Trash!

i don't know why, but in the sparse five hours of sleep i got last night, my brain decided to plague me with dreams of lilia taking care of an elderly silver, up until the final moments of his life. i could hear silver's thoughts the whole time, and he was so absolutely inundated with shame and guilt it almost seemed like he was suffocating. he kept thinking over and over and over again that this all should've been the other way around. he should've been the one looking after his father in the twilight of his life. he should've been his aging father's rock, his safe place to land, his stalwart defender against a world so unbelievably cruel to its most vulnerable denizens. again and again his heart cried out in vain, it should've been the other way around.

as a child he had once wished - prayed, even, to the same force now threatening to reclaim his spirit back into its unconscious designs - for his father to live a long and prosperous life, and it was as though that very wish had backfired on him in a way he never could have possibly imagined

"ATENTION ALL VOLCANO ROCK CITY !! GET READY FOR THE HEAT IN THE OFFICIAL FIRST CONCERT OF THE SALAMANDER ARMY !!"

!! NEW TROLLS OCS !! I've made some Trolls ocs because I love Rock Trolls and decided to make the most amazing Polycule of Volcano Rock City-

The Salamander Army was a band who's fame exploded in Volcano Rock City before King Thrash even rose as King of Rock.

They had a complicated history of a Roomie Situationship to Aspiring Rock Band to Co-Parents to Husbands (in this exact order).

As must as I love and adore this sillies, they're more than everything a colateral damage of me wanting to create a bf to Floyd, then giving said bf some lesbian mothers and THEN deciding to make parents for one of his mothers and then I went down hill- Don't ask how my brain works ok, I just gave up the wheel for the autism-

I'll flash them out more, talk about their daugther a lot and THEEEN talk about Floyd's bf because I need to follow steps here <3

But I already have some half baked designs for them so have them too-

The Lesbian Mothers.

Floyd's Future BF.

I started with River, and honestly will change his design A LOT later, but he was the first of the suddenly too long family tree-

And uuuuh that's it <3
