I don’t know who this guy is but I’m obsessed with him and have been scrolling through his reviews for the past half hour

do people even know the extent of sanctions on the iranian people? my mom's family can't afford fruit anymore. it's a state of psychological warfare; literally nobody living there has any sort of hope for the future. added sanctions from the EU are going to destroy the lives of 87 million innocent people

the stuff going on at columbia campus rn is genuinely incredible

despite mass arrests by NYPD and several students (including rep ilhan omar’s daughter, isra hirsi) being suspended for their participation and having their university identification deactivated, the gaza solidarity encampment is still going strong well into its second day. def recommend following independent reporter talia jane who is taking part and providing live updates. (talia was the first reporter to break aaron bushnell’s self immolation in february; she was one of the reporters he contacted personally prior to the protest.)

thank you so much alexa @shivsblunt for mentioning it…..anyone who wants to contribute to their jail support fund can do so @ bcabolitioncollective on v*nmo. also, if anyone is in the area and available to join (via cssw4palestine on ig):

every sunday i tell my liberal father that i'm off to go get another sex change. he tells me "yass monarch slay". but in reality i go to church to study the teachings of the lord. if my liberal father knew this i would be disowned. this is joe biden's america

whenever i'm trying to talk myself out of buying something i don't need i always hear my old russian professor's voice echoing in my head: "WHAT??? WILL YOU DIE THE RICHEST MAN IN THE GRAVEYARD?" and then i make an unwise financial decision

Hi. I'm Nesha: Black, queer, female, mentally ill, physically unwell, financially vulnerable, socially disengaged, and geographically on my own.

I'm cat mom to an elderly blind long hair domestic and live in an area with a high cost of living and constantly increasing unhoused population.

Creating this because the last one has fizzled out.

As of April 2024:

What comes every month and hasn't been paid is rent & water, electricity, gas, car insurance, rental insurance, and medicine.

What is currently past due and has to be settled for legal purposes is the IRS robbing me and fees for the apartment owners filing eviction papers for late rent.

What I'm begging for: Anything you have. I currently can not meet a single bill. Thank you.

I have PayPal

I have CashApp

I have Venmo

To the point of throwing up crying. It feels like after battling the past couple of years and regularly getting help for the past year, I've finally gotten to where nobody else can really help, or worse, nobody wants to try to help any longer.

I may finally be officially put out of this apartment.

I... think I need to... idk... accept my fate. I work so hard not to get here only to get here.

I've said before, and this is even more important than ever before: Even if it is just one dollar or two, I appreciate any help.

By my math, even if I put all my paychecks into this payment, I still will be $200 short. So, I am literally begging... if I, or my blog, have ever done you any good whatsoever, please consider giving me a dollar or two.

Tumblr says there are thousands of blogs who follow me, and yet I get a few dozen reblogs and even fewer actual donations. Even in times that I have asked to borrow money and paid it back by the time I said I would. I truly just want to survive. So, if you follow me and/or are within viewing distance of this, my survival can be so greatly impacted if even a third of my followers could simply send $1, $2 if possible, and more if you got it like that and wanna see me be well.

I have one more hour before the credit union and the rental office open. I am hoping so badly that I didn't forget any accounts that withdraw automatically. Hoping so badly that they don't get the court date while I'm running the errand. Just. Hoping, wishing, praying, needing for me to be able to get to that credit union, get the cashier's check and get back to the rental office in time enough to keep myself living inside my space. After that, I can worry about food, other bills, the next impending rent due, etc.

I should have just enough to make this payment and maybe have a couple of dollars left. If absolutely nothing happens within the next hour.
