Motel Funds for Homeless

My name is Alex! I’m a 21 year old Jewish Latina and I’m currently dating my boyfriend of over a year, Kleyton, a 22 year old Guatemalan immigrant.

I am chronically ill, and I cannot work. I have severe endometriosis and adenomyosis, 4 surgeries over the last 11 years of my life. I’m desperately waiting for the 5th, which has been stopped because of the virus. I’m in constant, bloody, pain and also can’t lift anything, which is why I can’t work. My boyfriend is a very hard worker, a construction man and a mechanic. He lost his construction management job with the corona virus closing down his site.

We have scraped by due to sw, donations, and a gofundme. But something happened Friday. Two of our roommates fought in a very horrid and scary display of domestic violence. She won’t do anything about it, and we can’t stay here waiting for him to beat her again. They’re also furious with us for being present during the event. This event has really harmed us, bringing up things from both of our pasts and making us scared and anxious and unsafe in our own home. We cannot stay here. We can’t be here while it’s unsafe and scary like that, we can’t take it. We have to move.

Because we JUST moved, we don’t have any money to again. And we gotta get out of here ASAP. We have to be some place safe where we can calmly find him work and keep pushing forward. Tomorrow, Monday the 29th, we will be moving into a hotel. We’ll have to pay daily until we find somewhere to go. There is a Super 8 for us to go to, and we’ll need $70 a day plus food expenses and various other things like our $40 phone line. We need help basically escaping here to the motel.

I take PayPal and cash app!! Please please please consider helping us. We’re very unsteady and scared and shaken right now. Reblogs will be so so appreciated, as well as good luck wishes/vibes. Please consider us in this scary time.

ACAB: border police destroyed everything i own and i was like barely staying alive anyway

ok so border police destroyed everything i own last week that wasnt literally in my backpack. like literally everything as in i own one shirt now. im unemployed (obviously) and disabled and homeless. i need money so i can stay alive and buy food meds etc…

any mention of black lives matter has disappeared off my dashboard so i thought y'all might want to know that police stormed a peaceful vigil in memory of elijah mcclain, attacking mourners with pepper spray. families were there. children were affected. this movement isnt over just because it's no longer trendy.

hi dolls 💞 my GFM has been sitting for months and I really need to get the ball rolling. PLEASE reblog/donate/share I could really use all the help I can get !!!(since the website taxes donations 🙄)

Or you can donate to me directly:

The actions of the police as a whole will seem senselessly violent, spiteful, and mean unless you view their tactics not as "riot control" or attempts to "maintain order" but as being derived from military tactics wherein they are trying to stamp out and destroy an enemy. Seizing masks meant for protestors will look petty until you identify that as a means of weaponizing the pandemic in a form of biological warfare.

The ongoing militarization of the police is coming to a head in this moment.

Uh-oh sisters! *phantom of the opera overture plays*

i need critical mutual aid

hi, im will, im critically ill, and now im at my wits end. im a 22 year old disability educator living out in the south. im the co-chair for a handful of local events, involved closely with several LGBT/disability orgs, and well known-ish for being the Local Blind Person with the Pink Cane.

in late march i was sent to the ER by my clinics nursing hotline due to what sounded to them like a ruptured ovarian cyst. long story short: an ultrasound showed. it wasnt, and thus i was referred to a gastroenterologist for abdominal pain. since then ive been cycled through three meds.

the gastroenterologist also ordered a CT scan, bloodwork, etc—ruling out celiac or gastritis or what-have-you—and then abruptly left her practice without warning. my followup was with a nurse practitioner at the same clinic, who responded to my problems with the 3rd medication by upping the dosage from 72mg to 290mg.

this landed me in the ER because i misguidedly believed medical professionals always know what theyre doing. in a fit of nausea i crawled into a hot bath, where my hair started falling out in fistfuls. i developed what i was worried was tardive dyskinesia, something im still risking with essentially every medication i take. the next thing internal medicine tried me on had similarly awful effects, given that it interacts with each and every one of my other meds while also being known to make even mentally stable people uncontrollably suicidal.

now my psychiatrist wants to put me on fucking levodopa, im seeing another specialist today to try to cover all my medical blanks while i triage with a teaching hospital, and in the meantime im losing massive amounts of weight because eating puts me in pain. im taking my meds crushed in applesauce and drinking a metric fuckton of clear ensure with various nutritional powders added into it. ive gone from weighing 95lbs to 70lbs. the last time i worked was in mid april, im on a payment plan for 5 different ER visits, and i have no idea what im going to do moving forward.

right now im trying to put together around $2000 to cover one month of rent, co-pays, medication, bills, gas money, and replacing things like nasal cannula or oxygen concentrator parts. its a steep goal, but two doctors appointments is $100. going to physical therapy twice a week is $100. co-pays are kicking my ass, payment plans are still expensive, and thats after hitting my first deductible three months into the year. between all of the bullshit i havent worked in nearly a month, and my savings are slim. weve been lucky enough to receive grocery help from a local org, but we are in crisis here.

i can provide proof of hospitalization, co-pay, medications, and all other expenses via DM.

queer housing groups are a great place to meet people you would never, under any circumstances, want to live with.

queer housing groups are like:

“hi manhattan folx. we are both fresh out of school and looking to split rent 3/4s* with one (1) quiet femme roommate. wed prefer to live with someone who is not greek, cannot practice martial arts and was recently fired from their job.

we are looking for a quiet person because it is a MUST that you do not ever speak to my partner due to his inability to behave normally. if you need trouble him, you will pass messages beneath our bedroom door at precisely 3am on sundays only.

you mightve heard about us from our previous roommate, moon. she will be posting in various local groups saying we sold her ferret on craigslist. please PM me for more details.

we are looking for someone who

you would be living in a cardboard box in our living room. we have a washing machine and dryer but ask that you do not use it, instead going to the laundromat down the street and matching whatever you paid them to pay us as well.

we are both lawyers but one of us roams the streets at night wearing a mask with horns and performing vigilante justice. you must be able to perform first aid at all hours. (and of course comfy doing this xo.)

people with leopard geckos and capricorns need not apply.

*as in you pay ¾ of the rent.”

MY BENEFITS ARE STILL SUSPENDED AND I DESPERATELY NEED HELP!!

*URGENT: PLEASE READ/SIGNAL BOOST*

Tuesday, May 5th: Hello everyone, I’m Gemma and sincerely apologise to be asking for help again but, I still desperately need help with my bills and getting groceries.

As most of you are already aware, I have been struggling financially for quite some time due to my welfare benefits being revoked, under the UK’s controversial changes to how benefits are assessed and assigned. And due to my mental health and some unfortunate DWP mess-ups, my benefits have been on and off sanctions for over a year now.

And despite receiving the results of my medical assessment in early February, which stated that I have a limited capability for work due to my chronic depression and extreme fatigue, my benefits have been suspended without warning or explanation. I have appealed the decision and made a new claim. However, I did the application 7 weeks ago and it is only now been processed, due to COVID-19 and an abundance of new applicants applying for benefits, so it could be several more weeks before I receive a U.C payment. 

These past few months have been absolute hell for me, and with no income, I’ve been relying on the kindness of others. However, due to quite a lot of late bills and fees, it’s been difficult to stay out of debt. I absolutely hate to keep asking for help but I am honestly at my wit’s end and desperately need some.

My goal, at the moment, is £200 to help me get by and pay off my overdue tax bill of £65, as well as helping me to get some groceries delivered as I cannot go to the supermarket, and it would really mean a lot to me if I could get some help. 

If anyone could spare any amount to help me, even if it’s just £1/$1/€1, it would literally save my life, and sharing definitely helps just as much as donations. Nobody is obligated in any way to donate if they can’t or don’t want to, I know we’re all struggling right now.

Thank you for your help 💖

redd animal crossing doesnt even know if the art hes selling you is fake he literally just gets it from god knows where and is like “this looks sick” and then puts it on his boat

he doesn’t know what it’s called either. he’ll be like “check out this Proper Painting. This Fat Nuts Statue” and Blathers takes one look at it to tell you “that’s Michelangelo’s David. where did you get this”

TW ACCIDENT AND BRUISES

I need help and I hate asking for it but it’s getting all worse.

So last year (august) I got back surgery because I had an injury (I’m an actress, musician and I dance)

A month after this (September) I got hit by a car

Here are my medical results (sorry they’re in Spanish)

I also had an MRI but it was days before quarantine in my country started and they haven’t given me my results yet. I’ve also been directed to neurosurgery because I haven’t recovered yet, but still haven’t been able to get an appointment with them because of the quarantine.

I’m still working as a teacher but my job as a vocal director and actress has been put on hold so more than half of my income has decreased.

I have a lot of debt because I don’t have a car and I’ve been going to work and physical therapy vía taxi since I can’t be standing up in a moving bus for long (Peruvian public transport is messy) and physical therapy is expensive.

So I’ve been paying my debt since my accident with no incident, but now with half of my income gone, I’m in trouble.

I’m $1500 usd in debt. Doesn’t seem like much in dollars, but in Peruvian soles it is 5k soles.

So I’m in need of help. I’ve opened a PayPal account

Every contribution will help a lot! Even if it’s just $1

I hope you can help me.

Thanks a lot in advance.

Warmly,

Kiara

hey, my other donation post lost traction so basically: i find out if i need open heart surgery tomorrow. my co-pay is $50 and i was unable to work today (i am a sex worker) due to falling unexpectably ill (not covid-19) and my paycheck for the camsite i use hasnt gone through yet. this is my last drs appointment of the month, where ive had 1-2 each week, and the most important. you can donate here and if i do need surgery, ill likely be starting a gofundme. thank you to everyone who has helped me along so far. my family owes you everything in this time. tizkeh lemitzvos.

heres my proof of life and a cat. sorry for the poorly images but i am very blind and very stressed out

image description 1: a selfie of myself. i am a white coded trans person with medium length brown hair that is almost black, cat eyeliner, thick eyebrows, and many facial piercings—a medusa, a septum, and two nostril studs, all opal. i wear a brown flannel, soft nasal cannula, and a black beanie that says “be nice to sex workers.” i wear a single coyote tooth earring.

image description 2: my cat wesley, a large maine coon, sleeps on his side in my bed. he is dead asleep and very relaxed.

UPDATE: thank you all! my cardiologist ordered a TEE (transesophageal echocardiogram) after reviewing my first echocardiogram—which was an ultrasound—and hasn’t gone over the results of the first echo with me at all yet. our county and the neighbouring one have been placed under shelter-at-home due to COVID-19, but a medical emergency and a call to their nurse’s hotline has confirmed that i need to go to the ER. shit sucks

currently hooked to an IV while we wait on scan results

scan said “this isn’t good, but you don’t need emergency surgery!” so i’m home now. still need to pick up the 3 prescriptions i was sent home with, which i’m expecting to come out to anywhere in the $50–$70 range. hopefully the pain meds will let me work again. thank you to anyone who has helped so far, especially in the midst of this collective trauma

rent is coming up and i’m still not fully recovered & have been unable to work since march 26th which has cut into our income even further. any and all help making sure we can cover rent this month is appreciated. i feel like i’m trying to rush recovery so i can just start making money again which, as it turns out, is not conducive to recovery. thanks for reading

hey folks. we made rent and i paid off a past due ER bill, which means we’re broke again. this help has meant a lot while i sort out my health and take the time needed to recover

The captions are also really cute, although they mostly describe what’s in each photo:

Bulbasaur: Somehow, nomming on my clothes… has become a weird habit of theirs.

Venusaur: That hasn’t changed now that they’ve grown, but they’re very gentle.

Charmander: It’s my first attempt, but I made a plushie so that he wouldn’t get lonely.

Charizard: That plushie seems to be his favorite even now.

Squirtle: Squirtle’s a bit timid and hides behind me at the smallest things.

Blastoise: Looks like they’re scared of the first Pichu they’ve seen. You’re not really hiding!

And some more!

“They like to fawn around like a spoiled kid between my arms”    “Since they got big, They’ve become bold.”

“They hold my hands, playfully touching.” “He’s not obedient, he touches my hands when I sleep/nap.”

“They seek attention when I’m sulking.” “Now they’re big, they do it unwaveringly, but, It’s a little cute…”

“When they worry, they wrap (their tail) around things.” “Since becoming big, they’re restrained.” 

“When it’s attention time, they take their place in my clothes.”  “Uh,,, my clothes,, oh you’re so happy, well, in that case it’s good…”

“They hold out a pretty flower for me.” “Today, they held out a (spring flower?) to me. Thanks!!”
