im remaking this post because i havent gotten any requests for readings in a while. im a nb lesbian living with an abusive alcoholic mother, and since i cant drive or get a job due to mental/physical illness and my home situation, i do tarot, pendulum, and birth chart readings to make money!

i charge:

  • $3 for a one-card tarot reading, with $1 added for every extra card. you can give me a theme or spread or just ask for a general reading and i’ll dm you the results and what they mean
  • $3 for a pendulum reading for up to 3 questions. these work best for yes or no questions and are great if you need a quick answer!
  • $6 for birth chart readings, in which you send me your chart/info and i explain how each planet impacts your personality. these take a while so i only do them on the weekends!

my paypal is ughthisucks@gmail.com or paypal.me/planetaries and my cashapp is https://cash.me/$planetaries, which are how i accept payment. i also have a ko-fi but it isn’t working right now so i’ll add it to this post when it gets fixed.

thank you for reading this, and if youre interested, DM me! please reblog this if you can, i need all the help i can get. my health has been getting worse as of late and combined with my home situation its getting debilitating

this is still a thing! my home situation is kinda bad right now and i still need help

while im on the topic, if youre not a lesbian… you need to cut it out with all the “stupid lesbian” posts. we have been fairly vocal about those posts sometimes being uncomfortable when not made by lesbians, let me explain why.

it’s one thing if it’s a cute post about a lesbian not realizing theyre on a date or something, we all like cute stories like that and i totally get it! but these posts have gotten a lot more prevalent and a lot more blunt lately, and its not cute. there’s a reason those types of posts get so much more attention, and its not because a bunch of lesbians suddenly came out of the woodwork. normal lesbian posts usually only gain traction from lesbians and bi women rebogging them, but the second it becomes an infantizing story about how dumb and stupid and useless lesbians are everyone and their mother reblogs it. its borderline fetishizing of lesbians, this is like, the same shit we get from cishet men but with a facade of allyship. its more like fetishizing being a great ally but in reality not caring about us as people either way. its cruel. 

its cruel to be constantly called stupid, useless, and dumb by your own community, because its “cute” for the consumption of non-lesbians. how incredibly patronizing is that? its such a performative type of allyship and support. stop calling lesbians stupid and useless all the damn time, especially if youre not a lesbian. if you ARE a lesbian have some more faith in your community, but i understand its easy to believe when this notion gets constantly pushed on you. it can really effect young lesbians and the way they view themselves.

do you know why lesbians have a hard time with stuff like flirting and dates? its not because theyre idiots, its because their whole lives theyve been pressured to have a submissive heteronormative role in their relationships, one where the man makes all the moves. but there is no man. only two lesbians deeply affected by misogyny and homophobia their whole lives. they were never taught how to be the one to make a move, so dating can be tricky and often hard to figure out for them. to make this into something cute, and to call them useless idiots for it… its cruel. i dont know how much more simply i can put it. you need to knock it off. 

unlearn this to be a good ally, support us and our voices instead of constantly calling us stupid. i hope this helps people understand our discomfort with those posts, and hopefully theyll realize this and make better efforts from now on. this is not a call-out, im not saying youre a bad person, but if youre on our side youll understand this is an issue for us and youll at least make an effort to stop. we, the entire lgbt community, wouldnt be where we are now without our lesbian foremothers. lesbians arent useless.

this has nearly 900 notes and only 200 reblogs, almost all by other lesbians. compared to the amount of attention “useless lesbian” memes get its really telling. i know that people don’t want to acknowledge that they have the capacity to be lesbphobic, but it doesnt make you a bad person if you make an effort not to be, even if you have made these mistakes in the past. you know what that effort looks like? boosting our voices!! especially if youve reblogged harmful “useless lesbian” stuff in the past, the point of this post is to educate, so its ok if youve only now realized it was at our expense.

if you want to help us, if you want to show us youre making an effort… get our voices out there!! that way, hopefully, the rotten trend will start to die and people will stop pushing the idea that lesbians are useless and stupid. thats so cruel to lesbians who have gone through so much pain and confusion to figure things out only to be called useless for it, and so harmful to lesbians who are only now starting to piece together who they are only to find out their identity is associated with stupidity.

thats why reblogs are important! thats why people getting the message out there matters! if you can reblog useless lesbian memes but not help lesbians get their voices across on important issues, can you really call yourself an ally? if no one hears us, how are they gonna know to stop?

Hey guys, this is my good friend Julian, we’ve known each other for quite a while in real life. anyway, he needs top surgery and has been out of work for a bit. I know how important it is to him to get this surgery and how bad his dysphoria is, so if you can help out, even just to boost this, it would mean a lot to me!

His surgery is in 3 weeks and if 10% of my followers donated 10 dollars each, it would be funded.

I need money to help my grandparents.

Hi everyone. I’m a 25 years old girl, living alone in a little rental property. I’m working at the counter in a little bakery. My relationship with my parents is not the greatest. That’s why I live uncommonly alone in a long time. But that’s not the point. My grandparents had a humble little farm in Italy and they were earning enough to survive, but unfortunately the wind destroyed everything they had. I’m trying to help them with my savings, but I can’t do much, because my salary is too low and I can barely afford to pay my rent… I’m not forcing anyone to donate, but if you want, I would be grateful for life.

here’s my paypal me if you are interested to donate! paypal.me/jade15smith thank you. <3

edit: thanks for supporting me, even your reblogs are a little help.🌻💕

now that ao3 as a whole is a hugo nominee and has reminded us all that it is an incredibly well-designed, excellently maintained project with an archival system that is the envy of many librarians etc, it is a great time to remember that:

  • ao3 is run entirely by volunteers 
  • there are no ads or monetization at all to bother site users
  • and also the site works on strict guidelines to prevent us from being sued to bankruptcy etc
  • we use this amazing site for FREE
  • server space is EXPENSIVE and ao3 needs A LOT OF IT
  • the otw (which is the non-profit that runs ao3) spring donation drive is happening right now!
  • donations to the drive go to ao3 AND other projects run by otw
  • so if you use ao3 and appreciate all the hard work being done to keep it running, GO DONATE. 
  • SUPPORT OUR HUGO NOMINATED ARCHIVE THAT ALLOWS US TO SAFELY AND FREELY ENJOY FAN CONTENT.

if you can’t donate, spreading the word, congratulating ao3 on the nomination, and thanking the ao3 volunteers for their hard work would also be lovely!!
