Race for Refugees - 30 Tunes, 30 Days!
Hey everyone,
TL/DR: I'm going to be recording and releasing 30 folk tunes on my violin for the month of September in support of Refugee Action! You can sponsor me here:
Like most people here in the UK, I've been horrified by the events of the last few weeks. Now more than ever, it's time to show solidarity, stand up against hate and discrimination, and demand a fairer future for refugees and people seeking safety in the UK.
Refugee Action support refugees' rights and services across the UK. Race for Refugees runs for the month of September - it's a race for hope, with a difference - participants take on a challenge of their choice for the month!
I'm a folk musician. I grew up with a genuine love for the folk music traditions of the UK. I've played in folk rock groups and ceilidh bands, covering traditional songs and dance tunes. But I'm perhaps not the type of person you immediately picture when you think of UK trad-folk!
My grandpa was an immigrant from Ghana in the 1950s and was blessed to be able to build a wonderful life here. I think we should demand nothing less for today's immigrants, especially those seeking safety and asylum.
Every day in September, I'm going to be recording and releasing a traditional fiddle tune from the British isles in support of refugees. There'll be jigs, reels, hornpipes and strathspeys aplenty!
Please sponsor me if you can, and help support refugees across the UK!
Thank you!
#i'm aiming for a £150 goal#but any help you can give would be amazing#even if it's just a signal boost!#refugee action#race for refugees#folk music#uk folk#30 tunes 30 days

Edit: Thank you all so, so much. I am incredibly moved and incredibly grateful for everything you all have done. Donations, signal boosts, kind words. We can cover their food for at least one month. Anything sent from here out is most welcome and will go towards their needs, but the food crisis is past for now!
The extra will be held until Raleigh sees the specialist on the 11th and either put towards vet bills or used to get him more of his stinky wet food.
----
Guys, we REALLY need help paying for cat food. This is not normally an issue, they come first, but a lot of bad shit happened this month and it has literally taken everything we had. I have tried my hardest to stretch their food to the end of the month but the boys, all three, are out of scrip food TOMORROW.
I'm so sorry. I don't want to be doing this.
It isn't helped by the fact that their food has shot up in price so much I can't believe it.
Please if you can help we would be so grateful. Just five bucks. My boyfriend's PayPal is [email protected].
We need a total refill on Dried Pickle Man/Sid tummy care kibble, and hopefully a month of wet food for Raleigh, which is around $300 for it all. That sadly isn't an error. That isn't even touching the cost of their vet plans and vet debt, which are another $300, and we are behind by about $100 on the vet plans. But all we really need is most of that $300 for food.
The boys can't be off their scrip food. Sid becomes violently ill (I had to buy hospital biohazard spill absorber for when he throws up) with even a little regular food, and Dried Pickle Man eats the same food he does. For Raleigh, well, he's dying. He needs to be kept comfortable for what time he has left and without this food he develops extremely painful and very dangerous urinary crystals very fast and without wet food he can't eat without severe pain in his mouth. We are trying to fix his teeth but need clearance from a specialist which we cannot get until July. He has already been off his scrip food for a couple of days.
We have gotten along this far via Patreon every month, which pays for a lot of the cat stuff, but PayPal and Patreon are holding over $700 of our money due to some sort of technical issue and I don't know when that can be resolved. Without it, we will have nothing in either bank account by the end of the month. Like. Nothing.
We need help. Badly.
Again, my boyfriend's PayPal is [email protected].
All money will go to him to get food for the cats and pay for their monthly plans and medical debt.
This is Raleigh, who will take your fingers and kiss them if you hold your hand out. Please at least help us get wet food for him so he can eat without pain while he is still here to hold my hand.
(If Raleigh does pass before his food runs out, we can easily return the remaining cans and put that money toward the cost of the euthanasia.)
(Reference, reference. These foods cost the same everywhere I can find, and have gone up in price a lot because greedflation, which is a big part of why paying is suddenly more of an issue.)
#signal boost#we at least need to pay for Smooch food and SOME wet food for Raleigh#normally it isn't a disaster like this but a bunch of people-things hit us at once this month and then Sid had a seizure and Raleigh's dyin#and we just got swamped#and it's pretty bad#like we will be out of money before july anyway but that doesn't even matter if we can get them fed until raleigh passes#then we can catch up again#oh god this is so terrible#you know they come first always and we do really well at making sure they have EVERYTHING#but we couldn't quite make it to the end of the month this time

Fellas, females, and friends....
Ya girl needs a better computer. I've been working off of small laptops my entire life and frankly they are NOT cutting it anymore. So some time earlier this year I had my brother sit down and help me virtually build a PC that will work much better for me. There's a small issue however... It's almost $800 total. And as usual your girl never has money. And I also have to save up money for when I transition from my current living situation to my next one.
So I have decided to have a fun lil fundraiser, commission spree, extravaganza, bonanza, type of thing.
Alright gang, computer is currently on hold. Emergency and backup funds are a priority for now instead but the event is still ongoing, the money just won’t be going to a computer upgrade right now.
Here's the pricing guidelines: Donate $150: Receive two waist-up commissions(may also be exchanged for one full body commission and one bust commission) Donate $100: Receive one waist-up commission(can be exchanged for two bust commissions) Donate $50: Receive one bust commission
EXTRA SPECIAL OPTION: $150 to get a full custom character reference sheet!!
All donation commissions may/can include a simple/semi-rendered background, maybe a prop or two, and an extra character with NO ADDITIONAL CHARGE! AIN'T THAT WILD??
To Donate simply DM me like when ordering a regular commission!
You’re of course welcome to donate different amounts than what is stated above and I will calculate what you can get in exchange!
(Please note!! My “Will Not Draw” list still applies during the event!!)
I also completely understand many of us are under financial duress so please don't feel like you HAVE to donate, I frankly adore you if you got this far reading the post! Simply sharing the post, telling your friends, etc. helps so much.
I love you all bunches and bunches MWAH

apparently this is the year for this...
Please Help Us Out With Bills
Currently, I'm virtually unemployed due to health issues and my employer all but refuses to give me short term disability pay because I don't have a diagnosis yet. I'm doing DoorDash as much as I can, which brings in ~$150 a week if that. It leaves my roommate, @kitthekazoo, to cover most of the mutual bills - like rent - virtually on her own. But that does mean she can't pay her own bills (like car and insurance) after paying the second half of our rent this month.
Like I said, I'm doing DoorDash around doctor's appointments and other activities, like school (which is paid for by my employer, who I still technically work for, I'm just on an extended medical leave - it's excused time off, but I don't get paid at all), but that doesn't bring in much. My checking account (where my DD money goes) is negative almost $400 because things keep taking out and every single one of those charges also incurs an insufficient funds fee of $31.
I would need ~$750 just to get positive enough to pay Kit back for my half of this rent payment. Plus I have my own bills to pay - car insurance, credit cards I'm desperately trying to catch up with the payments on, gas so I can keep doing DD, etc.
I know it's a lofty goal, but getting $1k by the end of the month will keep us sane and housed while I navigate my medical issues. Hopefully, after we run a few tests next week, they'll have a better idea of what's going on and when I'll be able to go back to work, and these money issues won't keep coming up...
I'll link my accounts below, including my etsy where you can buy some crochet projects from me if you want something in return for your donation! Or feel free to message me here or on etsy if you want something made that isn't listed in my shop.
Thank you in advance for any little bit, even if you can just reblog to spread the word. 💜
paypal venmo: amwallace95 etsy
so far: 230/1000
EDIT: I fixed the links!
#alex says things#mutual aid#signal boost#pls?#i feel so bad not being able to make money#because it stresses out both of us#but my credit union is determined to dig me a whole i can't get out of#so i'll just have a breakdown over here and try to keep it together#please reblog if you can't send money#or even if you can#we're so stressed and worried right now

I visited all the nearby business and no one took my bag in, someone stole it in the 5 minutes I ran up the hill. it's gone with all my rent money.
So I just lost over 2000$ cash rent money but all my cards are deactivated. I can't order new prints for the beginning of next month, so I'll be out even more money.
If anyone wants to help out, I have a donation link here and my shop is here if you're interested in any of my artwork. I'll be putting up new bookmarks later top
Thank you for any kindness of any form, I appreciate it
#added some of my artwork in case anyone doesn't know it idk#legit can't even like sob the tears are just falling#signal boost please#at least I'm pretty sure i took out my birth certificate

It's that time again!
If you can donate for or provide eSIMs for Gaza, they're in need of more:
If you just want to donate to a fund:
Some things to know about how Gazans are using eSIMs and how they're a literal lifeline for many people and why so many are needed:
#signal boost#esims for gaza#palestine#free palestine#trying to focus more on productive posting and not just anger#though#given how little the average american seems to know about all this#feels like even updates about what's going on aren't entirely useless

Hey Americans, it’s fall 2023 and the adult Covid vaccines are STILL FREE at certain pharmacies. Even if you have no health insurance. Even if you have health insurance but the insurance company likes to whine about CVS being “out of network” for vaccinations.
Find out more FAQ stuff from the CDC here:
And find your local locations with free vaccines below. Once you’ve put in your zip code and hit “go”, on the next page, make sure to click the checkbox that says “BRIDGE Access Participant” so you know these locations have the free shots.
#text post#Covid#covid19#covid 19#covid vaccine#covid pandemic#pandemic#vaccine#signal boost#boost#please boost#vaccination#covid-19#I am just putting as many tags that I can think of on this post to help it get to people#because I was unaware that the government was continuing to fund free vaccines#because the national health emergency ended in May#so finding out I could still get it for free even if my insurance wanted to be annoying was a relief#and I want to make sure others know it too

hey everyone, really didn't wanna have to do this but everything is so expensive these days and i'm struggling and my laptop is now broken and needs fixing. i finally created a ko-fi so if you can donate anything it'd really be appreciated. it's gonna cost £450 to fix so that's my goal i guess but even like half of that would be a huge help. and even sending just $1/£1/€1 my way could help if enough people contribute. (edit: unfortunately there have been transaction fees from paypal and £1 ends up being £0.67 so i've decided to change the ko-fi tip to £2 i hope that's okay)
ko-fi
goal: £173/£450
signal boosts would also be much appreciated <3
@phoebehalliwell @buffysummers @slayerbuffy @mulderscully @whitewolfofwinterfell @wearethecharmedones @haydenpanettieres @narliee @whatisyourchildhoodtrauma @sulietsexual
#honestly have no idea how to tag this#so yeah...#please help signal boost this at the very least if you can't contribute#but if you can contribute even if it's just $1/£1/€1 please don't feel like you're not helping enough cause truly anything will help <3

PLEASE HELLUVA BOSS FANDOM, STOP SUPPORTING THE BLOG OF REMTIX :'(((
Seriously, each time I scroll the tag I see their posts, it's already annoying but then I see how many people are liking and reblogging their posts when they are STEALING the arts from people from twitter, without crediting and even hiding the watermark.
Just today I saw this :
and guess what? the artist comes from twitter AND they do not allow reposts, IT'S EVEN WRITTEN ON THEIR PROFILE >:((
By liking or reblogging from this blog, you support art theft and it's a disrespect toward the creators of the fandom
so really, BLOCK remtix and if you recognize this art (or reblogged others from that blog), delete it too that would be helpful.
#helluva boss#hazbin hotel#I'm tired to write to the artists each time when people just don't care and keep supporting the blog#and I don't even understand why other arts in the tags don't get enough support but people support without problem an art thief#the artists don't deserve us really..........#IMPORTANT#art thief#personal#SIGNAL BOOST

Maybe I'm just jaded but seeing the immense influx of obvious bot accounts sending my mutuals asks that are just obvious scam sob story begging and seeing them go 'yep sounds good! Lemme post this!' is just. It's bots y'all.
"oh this account is vetted!" By who? Someone else who is equally an online stranger? I don't trust like that and neither should yall. It is so fucking easy to just claim 'yeah I'm vetted by so and so!' and if the account in question has thousands of posts you're not gonna go through to find the one username. They're betting on that.
Also, are y'all aware that GFM and pay/pal don't operate in most countries? In order for a GFM to go through there has to be an American (or someone else in a country of their banking operations) and then send that money to the person within ga/za. (Censoring it because these bots love targeting ppl that mention it) If a GFM doesn't mention the relationship between the person raising funds and the beneficiary, THATS A MASSIVE RED FLAG.
if you want to help, cool! Here is a list of organizations that are actually helping people with medicine, water, electricity, humanitarian aid, and other resources that a single family unit cannot and should not be responsible for providing. There are also things you can click to help for free. (And additionally; DO RESEARCH ON ORGANIZATIONS!! Find one you like and give them a much needed boost!! That is significantly more helpful than posting spam bot asks!!!)
https://arab.org/portal/palestine/where-to-donate/
Please actually check the people you're posting charity links for or don't do it at all. Scammers are out there and they do not have the moral decency to forego charity fraud.
#rambling#please stop giving money and time to spam bots and scammers it is not helping anyone#if anything its rly fucking annoying#heres hoping ppl dont automatically take this in bad faith#genuinely just slow down and take a minute to actually look at what youre being asked to signal boost#if the poster in question cant even get their own name right THATS A BAD SIGN

Just a heads up, don't trust everything you're told on anon. There are some childish and drama seeking people who want to spread slander about other blogs on this site. So please, if you receive an anon that makes big accusations, try to fact check it and don't post it if you can't find any evidence of that accusation.
#its pretty sad that this individual is trying to spread this drama to even more people#and people are just posting it#this mutual of mine has already gone through enough because of this person#before anyone says it im not saying all anons are liars#just... fact check and do your own research#also signal boost this#tumblr hasnt done shit about this individual so yea not much else we can do besides spreading awareness#vixpost#signal boost#poetstalker

@Bowknot_Huhu on Twitter is selling Trigger Happy Havoc/SDR2 Danganronpa/Pokemon trading cards! These include both cards featuring the characters with a Pokemon partner, and cards that feature each character on their own. You can purchase a randomized pack of 4 for ¥60 (about $8), or you can buy the whole 55-card set for ¥825 (about $115).
You can purchase them on Bowknot's taobao here, or read more about it on their Weibo! Please keep in mind that the posts are all in Chinese, so you may want to ensure you have some translation software handy if you don't already know ho to read it some. These are selling through December!
Please note that, to my knowledge, these aren't official cards. They're just really, really good. Enough so that I'm selling out for them.
Bowknot also very kindly gave me permission to post the high quality images of the cards that they posted to Twitter, so I've gone ahead and pasted the girls with their Pokemon partners (since I couldn't fit everyone). Due to the sheer number, they will be under the cut! (I've also included the name and Pokedex number of each character's Pokemon partner!)
Mahiru has a Dedenne (#701), Mikan has a Galarian Corsola (#222), and Peko has a Honedge (#679) (There's also a Gengar and a Gastly hanging out back there!).
Ibuki has a Toxtricity (#849), Sonia has a Diancie (#719), and Akane has a Snorlax (#143).
Chiaki has a Sylveon (#699), Hiyoko has a Sensu Style Oricorio (#741), and Jack has a Banette (#354). (Note that Toko is not present in the set with Pokemon partners!)
Kyoko has an Espeon (#196), Sayaka has a Jigglypuff (#39), and Hina has a Vaporeon (#134).
Sakura has a Riolu (#447), Celestia has a Gothitelle (#576), and Mukuro has a Bisharp (#624).
Junko has a Spiritomb (#442), and Chihiro has a Rotom (#479)!
#danganronpa#signal boost#cannot even begin to tag all the characters in this. please just know. everyone is here (except v3 sorry v3)#i really genuinely thought this was an official collab at first yall GOTTA check this out#dangan ronpa#thh#sdr2#mikan tsumiki#ibuki mioda#kyoko kirigiri#chiaki nanami#toko fukawa#mahiru koizumi#peko pekoyama#sonia nevermind#akane owari#hiyoko saionji#genocide jack#sayaka maizono#aoi asahina#sakura ogami#celestia ludenberg#mukuro ikusaba#junko enoshima#chihiro fujisaki#art#merch#whitewashing tw

hello! gosh, i honestly have no idea what else to do anymore. i've been such a huge ball of anxiety these pass few days and i feel like i've got no other choice ://
so, enrollment for the next semester is this Monday (in 4 days), and idk why my school decided to do it during this time when most ppl don't get paid until the last day of the month/next month. as if that isn't enough, enrollments are also on a time limit and now that we get to decide our own schedules, it's also a race on who gets the subjects first. and if you can't pay for a percentage of the tuition fee upfront, you're going to get delisted so you have to pick your subjects again. the later you enroll, the fewer timeslots. so i could end up having a 6-9pm which isn't safe for me in this city especially when i commute alone. even worse, our tuition for this semester is much higher for some reason and we weren't warned about it.
i can't ask for financial aid from my school yet bc it's required to have at least finished 1 year before you're able to. i'm still trying to look for student/personal loan options bc most i've seen so far require a monthly that i just can't afford rn and it only covers 1 term instead of a whole year so it's not really that sustainable :(( (i don't live in the US btw so it's not a "start paying when you graduate" thing. taking out a loan means i still need to pay monthly while in school on top of other expenses, which as you can imagine, feels more like a burden than it is helpful.) i've also tried looking for scholarships but most only support stem/business courses bc this country isn't nice to artists so that sucks.
i honestly have very little money saved and with the sudden increase in tuition, it's hard to cover half of it even with my parents' help. and again, nobody is getting paid until next month so money is already tight as is with it being the end of th month.
so long story short, i need some help. the first installment for the fee (converted from my currency) is about $600. BUT. NO PRESSURE. i'm only asking those who have extra to spare. and any and all amounts are welcome. it's already going to be such a huge help. hell, even just a simple reblog to boost this already helps a ton.
but also, my commissions are open! so if u want to have a lil story in exchange for just a tiny bit of help, that'd be great too <3
here's my kofi and my pypl
again, no pressure! even a smallest amount already helps a lot. and also, pls do reblog to boost. i really appreciate you! i hope you're having a wonderful day <3 don't forget to take care of yourself too. sending you wonderful people love always ❤️
tagging some mutuals under the cut for a boost bc sometimes this doesn't show up in the tags anymore (but also you don't have too!! you can ignore this if u want alskalks)
@selfcarecap @hollandsmoose @shellshocklove @tanaka-drew @agaritas @userholland @thecodyexpress @annab-nana @hollandweather @annathesillyfriend @cumholland @jasntodds @quethekillerqueen @worldoftom (ily guys, i hope you're all safe and well ❤️)
#financial help#mutual aid#financial aid#donation post#signal boosts#signal boost#gosh i really do get nervous doing this#my classmates tried to ask for like#a promissory note#asking to pay at a later date#but they won't budge :///#i've honestly exhausted my resources#i've also emailed them asking if i could just pay even a tiny bit of it#like leave a balance#they still haven't responded#idk what to do anymore ://#ramblings

So, as most of you guys know, I've been staying in a hotel with my two kids after being evicted from my apartment last year, and then kicking kicked out of the friends' house I was staying in to save up money while trying to find a new apartment.
Well, apparently life isn't quite done kicking the shit out of me yet because now my car isn't starting -engine won't even turn over, just makes sad noises when I try- and I'm not sure what's wrong with it. I have a friend coming over to look at it when he gets out of work tonight, so hopefully it's not too bad.
But I don't have any extra money to fix this rn, so if anyone can spare some money, I would really appreciate it ❤️❤️❤️

PayPal: paypal.me/darkangel0410
#i'm so exhausted at this point#like idek what i'm supposed to do now#but just keep going i guess#thank you to everyone who's donated so far#i appreciate it so much more than i can articulate#please reblog even if you can't do ate; it really does help#signal boost#donations
