Please Help!!
i really hesitate to make this post bc it's the end of the year and everyone is strapped for money but the past several months have just been slowly getting more and more overwhelming for the things we need to fix.
We've been driving around in a car with the back windows we can't even roll up (one is held up by duct tape and the other is now slipped off the track that we can't even pull it up at this point) and trying to save up money to fix the windows, and a small oil leak.
Two months ago we had to turn off the water to the kitchen sink bc underneath is rusted through and it needs replaced. We're doing dishes in the bathtub with a hair catcher because we can't use the dishwasher.
A few days ago, one of the back tires went flat because the wall has rotted and we have no spare. I need to go to work, but bc of my disability, I have a job that only has me work maybe twice a month. I get *maybe* 200$ a month and I don't currently have government assistance. It's been impossible for us to save anything to fix anything and it keeps snowballing. At this point we are worried how to even get food.
I'm stressed. My wife is stressed. If anyone could spare even a couple dollars so we can replace the back two tires on the car so I could go to work, I would be eternally grateful.
Reblogs are deeply appreciated.

#im really sorry to have to make this post but im genuinely at my wits end#i cant afford (physically) to get another job to save money even tho i want to#please only donate if you can afford it obviously#the car is the biggest issue rn but the sink is really wearing on our mental health#the literal broken window of the house is like the least of a priority bc theres just. so much rn.#2/3 of the sinks in the house aren't functioning and one of them we have to park a radiator in front of in the winter#two years ago the furnace died and the pipes burst and completely eradicated all savings we had#we just. need a little break. just a little help#donation post#signal boost#please please just reblog if nothing else

Thank you so so much for all your help so far!
A quick update from us:
I’ve lowered the goal amount to focus on our most urgent need: an inverter and battery back up.
(We technically need two batteries, which is why the GFM is at $2k to cover a lot of the cost and include what has already been donated.)
We have had… honestly too many power outages in the past two years here, and each one has caused serious problems for us with no heat, even to the point of being life threatening. This inverter is rated the best for pellet stoves and the best for no interruption. (and therefor no smoke blowback into the house) This would help us the most right now!
As always, I offer as much art, stickers, prints, anything you can slap an art on in thanks for any donations! I do have a small waitlist at the moment for commissions/requests, but I’m working my way through it as fast as possible! (Any donation art requests will be worked on concurrently, and will have their own list.)
#go fund me#donations#emergancy donations#crowdfunding#GoFundMe#I’m working as fast as possible#without sacrificing quality#as best I can#🥲#i’m so sorry to keep boosting this#it was just such a huge debt to take on to order this thing in the first place#and now I have no money left at all by the second week of each month#never mind trying to afford food and water these days#I know it’s a bad time#it’s never a good time with the cost of living as it is#but if anyone has a bit to spare#I will be eturnally thankful#and will not stop trying to give you things

my venmo is @/lucylemon and please DM for paypal. thank you for reading and I will be so appreciative of any help i receive, even if that’s just helping to circulate this post. love y’all <3
#it's that time of year where i never have any money and anything is terrible#which is WHY i need to be able to afford the copay for my therapy lmao.#i just need to make it to that first paycheck in july. im so close#please help if you can :( but ONLY if you can!!!#i know its hard out here#fin aid#signal boost#mutual aid#and also sorry if this post clogs ur feed as i try to share it around

If you’re the kind of person to feel guilty about not giving money to go-fund-mes whose authenticity you’re unsure about, I think it’s a good idea to (if you can afford it obviously) give whatever you would give to something like the PCRF, or some other charity you trust to do good for Palestinians.
#bcs there’s so many ppl in need and so many go-fund-mes#th calculation for scams is a bit different I feel like than for something else#so rather than you either give money w/ a chance of it helping or not helping#or you keep it where if you have enough money yourself that you don’t need it#it doesn’t help#but here#any money that goes to a scammer#is money that otherwise would have gone to a Palestinian in need#and that feels (to me) like it makes it worse#but then again for a lot of ppl it’s like conflicting guilt#either guilt about not giving or guilt about potentially wasting money#and again this all assumes you can afford it and would like to give money#although this can also go for signal boosting too#I think there’s also Operation Olive Branch#but I need to look into them a bit more#I don’t think I’ve actually researched them all that much#which I should do#I’ve just heard things in the grape vine but that doesn’t mean much

please forgive me, but I need to complain and over-share or my brain is going to explode please feel free to ignore
#I'm not doing well.#the last two places I worked (in a tourism-adjacent sector) closed. broadly speaking due to post-lockdown financial issues#for the past year at my current job I've been earning less than half what I used to. this was the only offer I got at the time and#I haven't found anything better since. this is not sustainable I'm barely making it each month...#I live with my parents and cancelled my health insurance I don't know how else to reduce my budget. it's depressing tbh#the solution is obviously to find a better job but that's just not happening and I'm beginning to feel discouraged.#I hate being negative it's a very unattractive character trait but I just feel myself slipping and spiraling#I know I should be taking short courses or volunteering to boost my cv but like when ! and how !#I can't afford to work less but I get home at 20h so even evening courses are tricky. I work every other saturday too so weekends are out#and like I do need to rest at some point you can't be depressed and burnt out that's a terrible combo#was looking at a dtp/typesetting short course and 1) I'll need a new computer that can actually run design programs#and 2) the course itself is like 2 month's salaries which I cannot realistically save right now#and yet I'm still ''over-qualified'' for entry level positions because I went to uni. well maybe that's just a polite excuse#because as interesting as my humanities degrees were they didn't equip me with any practical or marketable skills#besides being good at reading and writing. but AI can do that for free now so that's not helpful#I always thought I was reasonably intelligent but I cannot solve this puzzle. there must be a creative solution that I'm missing#but i feel so stuck and trapped#and at least once a week some poor soul stumbles in to the office practically begging for a job so I feel bad for complaining#a little truly is better than nothing#but thank god we elected more pro-business capitalists into government that really is going to be great for us workers (sarcasm)#also I should acknowledge#I am getting some déjà vu. I feel like I've vented about this topic before#the difference is. back then it was a potential concern. now the concern has materialised into reality and rendered the situation desperate

ok ok I talked to a colleague and now all's good. I'm motivated af for the interview this afternoon. I'm getting that fucking job. Everyone wants me to get that job anyway. I'm done being nice now I'm letting them know they better give me that job and sign the papers in the next month else I'm quitting. Good luck with finding yet another engineer to work in the middle of nowhere when you're already struggling to hire 💅
#Mel rambles#talking to that colleague is always such a confidence boost#she used to be a high level manager and she's always telling me I'm a good asset for the company#she knows what she's talking about so I guess I can afford to be confident#It's mean but I'm hoping I can change position and the person who replaces me is less competent so that I can be like 'SEE WHAT YOU LOST?'#'THAT OTHER GUY WASN'T KIDDING WHEN HE SAID I'M MORE SKILLED THAN THE GUYS HE HIRES TO ACTUALLY BE DEVELOPPERS'#'you had a project manager who doubled as developper and tripled as data analyst and just decided to throw 9 MONTHS OF HER WORK TO THE TRASH#FOR NO OTHER REASON THAN 'we changed our mind! youpsi 🤭'#...#ok yeah it's been months and I'm apparently still very much not over it#but they really acted like bitches. who fucking does that and doesn't properly apologize. they really don't give a shit about my work#ANYWAY let's get that job and go with people who might actually care about what I do l#and do a job that I'm like. actually interested in#CROSSING FINGERS NO ONE BETTER FOR THE JOBS THAN ME APPLIES#(that's what happened last time. guy with like 20years of experience showed up. I didn't stand a chance)#anyway let's do this!! I'm confident and in a good mood now so let's gooo

Spoil her! That will spoil yourself :-)
I mean I came with treats and a new toy. But I have $13 total until I get paid next. Can’t do much with that.
#thank you to whoever sent me $10#that means I can afford to buy a couple energy drinks#and my meds stopped working without caffeine boosts#so thank you so fucking much#my mind literally depends on that

I am mohammed ayyad of Gazans, living in very difficult conditions because of the war that the Gaza Strip is under. Since the outbreak of the war on the seventh of October we have been evacuating .
Then the journey of suffering and separation began,because my children were separated and evacuated from our home without covering or clothes., From here they became infected with diseases, and what increased our fatigue was the constant upbringing due to the different areas in which we were displaced, as we were displaced 9 times, and this was very expensive, the last of which was the 9th of this August from Hamad Town. In addition to that, we have lived in the summer season in a tent that did not exceed three meters, closed with nylon, so it is like an agricultural greenhouse atmosphere. It is very hot. All in all, we live difficult days that no human beings can afford
We have no work because of the war, and we do not have any kind of money and this is accompanied by a crazy and horrible rise in prices.
Although water is not suitable for drinking, this is the cause of many diseases
The last suffering is that we are out of Hamad without taking our purposes or our tents and now we are searching the earth in the roads and our children and our elderly parents are suffering..So we use direct donation including what they can or share links fully so people can know our tragedy and pain. Remember a small contribution can make a difference in the lives of many children who are dealing with their health condition all. Leave their details and make them happy with your generous contribution.
free palestine 🍉🇵🇸 please contribute if you are able to, and reblog anyways. nothing is too small an action right now. mohammed, i am so sorry i don't receive ask notifications and have logged on for the first time through desktop only to see your message now. i see that your tumblr is thankfully still active, and will reblog as much as i can even if i cannot donate <3 stay strong
#listen it doesn't matter if you encounter one or two or even fifteen real or not real fundraisers#it literally doesn't matter these days please understand that#if you can afford to contribute please do#the impact of being able to donate to even a single functional one of these far outweighs the impact of having donated to the wrong place#free palestine#fundraiser#for gaza#boost#go fund them

to most of us, some of these options don’t sound quite right. but to palestinians, this is what’s happening every single day, now that the winter is starting.
@ma7moudgaza2 and his family desperately need money to buy necessities. they are recent victims of fraud, and eleven thousand dollars he had painstakingly raised were stolen.
it’s coming up on the “season of giving”, and i’m begging you all to not continue giving to zionist companies and, if you’re capable, give a little to people under bombing and heavy rains.
@el-shab-hussein has verified him here, as i understand it can be hard to tell what’s real and what isn’t when people are dead set on profiting off of genocide.
tumblr has come together for a lot of things. fake movies, dashboard trick or treating, shoelaces, and a bunch that i don’t mention.
we can come together for mahmoud.
mahmoud also frequently boosts his friends. please don’t just reblog! follow him too.
hey if you guys see this please reblog the version that is being updated and includes mahmoud’s goal! it’s pinned to my blog
13,302 / 13,500!
the campaign is going slowly! but we are so, so close! please help!

for a few days now i've been chatting with @hazempalestine, and i'd like to help boost this incredibly kind person's fundraiser in any way i can. he hasn't been able to see his family in 6 years, and his campaign has been progressing very slowly; as of posting, it's only at €6,661 out of a needed ��50,000.
please donate, and share if you can't afford to donate! send in a receipt of your donation through my submissions or dms and you can request an anagram.

I found an extremely dope disability survival guide for those who are homebound, bedbound, in need of disability accommodations, or would otherwise like resources for how to manage your life as a disabled person. (Link is safe)
It has some great articles and resources and while written by people with ME/CFS, it keeps all disabilities in mind. A lot of it is specific to the USA but even if you're from somewhere else, there are many guides that can still help you. Some really good ones are:
How to live a great disabled life- A guide full of resources to make your life easier and probably the best place to start (including links to some of the below resources). Everything from applying for good quality affordable housing to getting free transportation, affordable medication, how to get enough food stamps, how to get a free phone that doesn't suck, how to find housemates and caregivers, how to be homebound, support groups and Facebook pages (including for specific illnesses), how to help with social change from home, and so many more.
Turning a "no" into a "yes"- A guide on what to say when denied for disability aid/accommodations of many types, particularly over the phone. "Never take no for an answer over the phone. If you have not been turned down in writing, you have not been turned down. Period."
How to be poor in America- A very expansive and helpful guide including things from a directory to find your nearest food bank to resources for getting free home modifications, how to get cheap or free eye and dental care, extremely cheap internet, and financial assistance with vet bills
How to be homebound- This is pretty helpful even if you're not homebound. It includes guides on how to save spoons, getting free and low cost transportation, disability resources in your area, home meals, how to have fun/keep busy while in bed, and a severe bedbound activity master list which includes a link to an audio version of the list on Soundcloud
Master List of Disability Accommodation Letters For Housing- Guides on how to request accommodations and housing as well as your rights, laws, and prewritten sample letters to help you get whatever you need. Includes information on how to request additional bedrooms, stop evictions, request meetings via phone, mail, and email if you can't in person, what you can do if a request is denied, and many other helpful guides
Special Laws to Help Domestic Violence Survivors (Vouchers & Low Income Housing)- Protections, laws, and housing rights for survivors of DV (any gender), and how to get support and protection under the VAWA laws to help you and/or loved ones receive housing and assistance
Dealing With Debt & Disability- Information to assist with debt including student loans, medical debt, how to deal with debt collectors as well as an article with a step by step guide that helped the author cut her overwhelming medical bills by 80%!
There are so many more articles, guides, and tools here that have helped a lot of people. And there are a lot of rights, resources, and protections that people don't know they have and guides that can help you manage your life as a disabled person regardless of income, energy levels, and other factors.
Please boost!
#signal boost#please reblog#I'm so so glad this has gotten the traction that it has!#chronic pain#chronic illness#disability#fibromyalgia#cfs#chronic fаtiguе ѕуndrоmе#actually disabled#spoonie#me/cfs#cfs/me#long covid#important#invisible disability#ehlers danlos syndrome#lyme disease#chronically ill#cpunk#cripplepunk#it's a bummer that it's so US centric but if you're outside of the US you can look into similar programs#I hope that other countries have options like these#the US seems so behind when it comes to medical care and disability resources. and i mean it is#but it's good to know all of your rights as a disabled person or if you ever become disabled
