Hi friends! I worked with my mom to put together a digital book of her Mexican recipes to help raise money for my parents while they’re out of work + my mom recovers from surgery soon! $11 for 11 recipes ❤️

You can buy it here

UPDATE:

My mom was recently diagnosed with kidney cancer and we are trying to raise funds for her medical bills.

Please consider supporting her recipe book HERE

You can also donate to her GoFundMe HERE

Anyway, something I neglected to mention in my post last night is that much of Buffalo’s East Side (where the shooting happened) is a food desert. This Tops was the main grocery store in this particular district (there are mini marts in this particular area but not another big grocery store). And if you don’t have a car, it’s not always easy to get to places in Buffalo even with public transportation so trying to get to the main grocery store in your area can be difficult for some people to begin with - and now it’s probably going to be closed for a bit due to what happened.

If you feel inclined to donate, you can donate to Buffalo Community Fridge. They have a Venmo: bflocommunityfridge. Also, Buffalo Community Fridge has a Target Registry so you can purchase and give items directly. There are three different ‘community fridges’ located throughout Buffalo to help address food insecurity including one on the East Side. It’s a place where people can drop off food and anyone can take food at any time - it’s open 24/7. Here is a link to their website and to their Instagram. You can read more about how the community fridge project got started and see pictures at Buffalo Rising.

Additionally, a local mosque (confirmed- Jami Masjid) is also raising funds for the families of the victims. Here is a link to their fundraiser.

“A mycelial network is a map of a fungus’s recent history and is a helpful reminder that all life-forms are in fact processes not things. The ‘you’ of five years ago was made from different stuff than the ‘you’ of today. Nature is an event that never stops. As William Bateson, who coined the word genetics, observed, ‘We commonly think of animals and plants as matter, but they are really systems through which matter is continually passing.’”

does anyone else remember reading about spontaneous human combustion in a book of weird and unexplained facts and phenomena when you were like, ten years old or something and being convinced for like a week that you were going to suddenly burst into flames out of nowhere and that this was something actually worth worrying about before never thinking about it ever again or was i just fucked in the head as a kid

thank you to everyone for sharing our collective childhood memories in the tags, it's good to see we're all normal

All I'm gonna say is that for the past year, Onlyfans has been weird about not just content but even compensation of its creators. Rumors have been flying for a while, but with this and the unveiling of a SFW app, I think now is a good time to look for alternatives.

I would also recommend listening to sex workers and internet activists about who these bans target and how tied it is to policing. Hacking Hustling has a great paper detailing this with not just sex work but also social media website censorship of Black Lives Matter movements: https://hackinghustling.org/posting-into-the-void-content-moderation/

Technology has historically been used by the U.S. Government to repress and silence movement-building efforts, and magnify systems of oppression and violence that criminalize and police communities and how they support themselves. With bills like the EARN IT Act, PACT Act, and Lawful Access to Encrypted Data Act on the horizon as well as the US Agency for Global Media’s hostile takeover of the Open Technology Fund, we believe that now is the time to better understand the impact of content moderation on human rights and movement work. As the pandemic necessitates more online interactions and decreased access to public spaces, we are moving into an ecosystem of increased government-sanctioned surveillance and censorship. We need to question tech’s primary and flawed solution to mitigating liability—content moderation—and the role it plays in our lives, our communities and our organizing.

Masafusa Shibuya made these garments out of satin, organdy and silk thread. They offer the kind of comfort that you can touch and see, but also remember. Part dream, part architecture and part mood, these solitary scapes are a refuge of pathos and melancholy. As found in Fabric and Needlework Illustration, 1994.

OSHA safe stimboard for anon!

Credit:

🚧 🚧 🚧

The masonry saw depicted in the bottom-center gif does not appear to be properly guarded, a violation of OSHA Standard 29 CFR 1928.702(i)(1):

Masonry saw shall be guarded with a semicircular enclosure over the blade

By claiming that this stimboard is “OSHA Safe” you have provided false information about the safety of your workplace and may be subject to a fine of up to $10,000

actually, if you look at the full gifset linked, it is indeed OSHA safe as a semicircular enclosure over the blade is fully visible there. you can also check out the Instagram video here, where you can see the saw being used. i apologize for any misunderstanding, i take my workplace safety very seriously.

Thank you for your cooperation! You are no longer required to keep the above citation posted for the usual 3 Day period and you will not be charged a penalty fee.

I broke one of my molars FUCK

Its was one that my first dentist, fucked up?? and did a "filling" on it, despite me not needing it, and it ruined the tooth and it's been slowly cracking, and chipping away for years. My current dentist has been doing patch jobs on it for years for me, because I didn't have enough cash to do a root canal on it.

WELL, it just BROKE CLEAN IN HALF

And the nerve ending is DEFINITELY exposed, I'm in agony. It hurts so bad.

So im on my way to my dentist's office right now. I called him and explained and he said he's heading into the office just so he can help me.

Hes going to look at it, and see if he can do a root canal today, and sand down the sharp edges of the break so it doesn't cut my cheek or tongue. And a round of antibiotics!!!

I don't know how much it's going to cost me outta pocket yet.

I have SOME money in my bank account that I can use to make a down payment, and just...give them SOMETHING for the cost of today?? He already told me he doesn't expect me to pay in full today, he just wants something.

If anyone has anything to spare, I'd genuinely so appreciate it 😭!!

Iv had 9 root canals, and broken 6 teeth, ONTOP of having my entire jaw removed because of my tumor?? Im so done with dental emergencies. Fuck

$250/$600!!!! thank you everyone 😭🙏

Haven't gotten anything in a few days, I literally have ZERO food and haven't eaten, Because all of my money has been going towards this bill if anyone can send anything my way I'd owe you big one 😭😭😭
