I'm still currently working everyone, but I was just having a bad few weeks at my job which I just started towards the end of February this year and I was struggling with my anxiety and depression among other things including deaths in my family and more, as well as stress from the job itself and was able to go on medical and a mental health leave for the last 2 weeks now but now I'm struggling to keep myself fed and my cats and help them out with litter and keeping my home clean due to low energy and all the stress and I really need help keeping myself financially stable and pay off bills, I've also been struggling to find therapy and a therapist that's right for me, right now I just need at least 50 to 60 dollars until I get paid toward the end of this month, if anyone can help me out my PayPal is under [email protected], my main cashapp is $Slasherstan91 & my Venmo is Negrophiliac. I really need help at least until I get paid....any and every amount of donations are HIGHLY APPRECIATED!!

[ID: Tweets from Emily 'Soup Lesbian' Gwen (@theemilygwen) on twitter with the following text:
Well, just left a job interview crying because the hiring manager told me they liked my application but were disappointed that I didn't bother dressing appropriately. I tried to explain that I haven't been able to afford new clothes in years but I just couldn't handle it.
That comment and my reaction was one of the most mortifying moments of my life. I thought I put together a decent outfit for the job with what I had, and hearing her say that just destroyed me.
Anyway I'm still looking for work and struggling a lot. Even $5 would help pay for a meal. ko-fi.com/emilygwen

its my birthday in a month and id love to not be broke
my last post has lost traction and donations have died out, so here i am remaking
im currently still disabled from long covid and have been denied long-term benefits. i am in the process of working on getting that overturned, my letter is written and im just waiting to finalize it after my in-person dr's app this friday (3/10/23). i dont know whatll happen once its been sent and my search for remote work hasnt gone well--had an in person interview in february and im sure they didnt offer me the job cause of my obvious disability. i am still applying to jobs daily but have yet to make any real headway.
ive had no income since january. my last post did not hit my goal--got a lil over half of it--and i am currently short rent, was only able to pay a partial amount on my electric bill, and have very little money for food for the month. i also will need to take a lyft/uber to my dr's appointment this friday. my cat is still doing fine with food and litter thanks to various food donations made, but thats the only thing im not worried about rn.
id also love to be able to get a mobility aid for those rare times i leave my house. i found a mobility aid that i think would be helpful if anyone wants to donate to help me get it.
also my bday in a month and while i dont want much i would rlly love to be able to get something nice for myself, even something small. i dont have a wishlist cause i dont want much but i just want to be able to have something nice for my bday if possible
im sorry to make such a long rambling post and i hate having to continue asking for mutual aid. i know we all strugglin and i know its hard to help out but anything is helpful including reblogs
currently im setting my goal at $1500 because i still need to make up for what i couldn't reach this month.
$0/$1500
venmo: @/PeachyMermaid paypal: [email protected]
@shareyourdollar @lgbtdonate @helppeople
Update: just got my taxes finished so im adding the total of what I will be getting within the next week or so, including two donations (totaling $105) I got this morning. the return ($600) is not as much as i was hoping but it's decent thankfully.
i need to pay the remaining balance on rent, make rent for next month, buy food, and pay off my electric bill, which is pictured below. i managed to pay a partial amount using previous donations but couldn't pay in full:
i spoke with medical records yesterday and was able to figure out that the long-term benefit provider is basically lyin about what the doctor's said, so imma be finalizing my letter and considering legal action--the dr's appointment mentioned above is actually on the 20th, but this new information is helpful in getting that letter finalized and sent off without seeing my doctor immediately.
my hope is that i will be able to get this decision overturned quickly. so if at any point i start getting benefits, i will close out donations and be redirecting folks to others in need.
$705/$1500
had a huge stroke of luck and a family member who was previously unable to help me out due to being unemployed was able to send me a large chunk of money that i can use to pay the rest of my rent! 😭😭😭 incredibly relieved but still not all the way to my goal (though with my taxes this month is def better)
at this rate, i’m so close to my goal 😭 and if i can reach it i should be okay until i can get this medical leave payment denial overturned. and if that happens i can breathe a sigh of relief
$1105/$1500
$1175/$1500
don’t know what happened but i thought i reblogged this earlier—i have a drs appointment tomorrow and need to take lyft/uber there and back, plus copay if anyone can help out so i don’t need to cut into donations for bills and food
was able to get what i need to get to the drs tomorrow but still need to reach my goal of $1500 for the month

🛒 Please Help My Partner and Me Raise $20 to Get A Ride to the Store 🛒
This is me. Unfortunately my partner is sleeping rn and I couldn't take a picture with her.
My partner and I are trans women who live in a homeless squatter town in the Sonora Desert which is pretty far away from any decent grocery store.
In order to go food shopping we need to pay a local with a car $20 to go three towns over to the Grocery Outlet.
Neither of us have a regular income, but we're both involved in a project to better our local community. See more here.
Please donate to help us raise $20 so we can get a ride to go buy food!

ASAP!!!: ER trip for heart attack!!!!!
I JUST woke up ( 7:12 pst, 9/28/22) to my mom to be having a heart attack, I literally only have enough to send her to the ER in an uber but between my mom me and my partner we dont have enough for a major hospital stay even for one night. She has been in and out of the hospital 6 times in the past month for her own chronic illnesses and our family has a history of heart attacks and heart issues. I NEED money to send her to the ER, she is afraid to seek help bc of poverty, she literally fits to a every female heart attack symptoms to a T and is scared to go bc we dont have enough money
idk how much this will end up costing so im not setting a firm goal but I really need like $200 ASAP! bc i need $ for uber, ER stay and medication
CA: $sleepyhen OR $grumblybear
VN: wildwotko OR XochiRose
DM for my partners paypal
She is gettin a EKG at the hospital, idk how long theyre gonna keep her esp since shes been in there 6+ times this month alone, pls keep this circulating
........They fuckin sent her home from the ER on the bus yall!!! didnt even call me (her emergency contact) to get her an uber home, im BEYOND pissed at the treatment that my mother was given at the only hospital our insurance accepts
They did an EKG, gave her some BP meds and IV fluids and just monitored her!!! and sent her home!!! after being in the hospital 6 times this month alone!!
Im thankful that I caught her symptoms but they didnt do any more diagnostic testing like they should have, or like refer her to a cardiologist which they also didnt do! or even keep her long enough to see if shes well enough to go home which shes not Im gonna keep this post circulating bc its highly likely she is going to need to go back to the ER at some point but also so I can try to get her some better healthcare for her out of pocket, which i know is expensive but bc of anti blackness and fatphobia they didnt take her symptoms/heart/BP issues seriously and since this is the 7th time of her being in the hospital im very much done working with our insurance accepted hospital network
i love being independent but i also want someone to love and talk to but i always want to be left alone but im also lonely

DOOM DAYS REIMAGINED — a collection of posters inspired by Bastille’s third studio album, released in 2019.
@storyseekers event 22: witches — the witch haven, by sasha peyton smith
to be a witch is to have power in a world where women have none.
Some not so well known at the same time as foundational Black women theorists to read, I don’t know (this is absolutely NOT an exhaustive list, you’re welcome to add to it:
Ruth Wilson Gilmore: She is a geographer, a prison abolitionist and a scholar whose work on prison geography is one of the theoretical foundations of the abolitionist movement.
She wrote Golden Gulag: Prisons, Surplus, Crisis, and Opposition in Globalizing California, which revolutionized critical race theory, prison geography, and antiracist theory as well as activism. She also authored this quote: “Racism, specifically, is the state-sanctioned or extralegal production and exploitation of group-differentiated vulnerability to premature death.”
Saidiya V. Hartman (my beloved): She’s a cultural historian and one of the most important voices in Black Studies. She is the conceptor of the of afterlife slavery, which I’ll let her explain: “This is the afterlife of slavery–skewed life chances, limited access to health and education, premature death, incarceration, and impoverishment.”
By defining so clearly the lasting effects on slavery as an ongoing event, she considerably enriched Black Studies. She also has explored the violence of the archive and the way trying to recover Black history can also add to the original wounding.
She is the author of the foundational essay Venus in Two Acts, and invented critical fabulation as a way to care for the people the archive has scarred. From the creation of critical fabularion came out her latest and life changing book, Wayward Lives and Beautiful Experiments. You can find quotes from by looking up my Saidiya Hartman tag.
June Jordan: She’s a Black bisexual poet, Black feminist essayist and activist, self taught environmental designer/urban planner, author of children’s book, a playwright a journalist, and a teacher.
She’s the author of this both famous and obscured quote : “Bisexuality means I am free and I am as likely to want to love a woman as I am likely to want to love a man, and what about that? Isn’t that what freedom implies? If you are free, you are not predictable and you are not controllable. To my mind, that is the keenly positive, politicizing significance of bisexual affirmation; to insist upon complexity, to insist upon the validity of all the components of social/sexual complexity.”
She valued the linguistic complexty of and taught classes on Black English, also now known as AAVE. She was adamant on teaching the narratives of the marginalized and the willfuly forgotten (this is rage-inducing still relevant today).
She is also the coauthor with Buckminster Fuller of the urban planning project, A Skyrise to Harlem in which she intented to redesign Harlem to radically transform it into a thriving neighborhood. However, when Buckminster Fuller published the study, he removed any mention of her contribution. Only later was she credited for her work.
No one is fucking talking about it but another black man was killed by the same police department that killed George Floyd they killed him 9 minutes after entering his apartment. No knock warrants are fucking bullshit. He was wrapped in his blanket he was innocent they had the wrong address there is body can cottage you cannot fucking deny this bullshit.
This is being hushed up and covered up and I cannot believe it took me until TODAY, SIX DAYS AFTER IT HAPPENED to find out about it.
Everyone should be talking about this shit.
All the BLM protests and here we are again. We cannot let a single one of these slide because that's how nothing changes and that's how innocent people are being killed at the hands of assholes who are happy to pull the trigger without hesitation. I'm so fucking upset right now and so should you be.
His Name is Amir Locke. He was 22 years old.
Amir Locke shooting: What we know so far
Suspect arrested in homicide case that led to police fatally shooting Amir Locke is his cousin
Video shows Minneapolis officers hooting Black man during no-knock warrant. Attorneys say he wasn't the target
Students Protest Amir Locke Killing, Demand Lawmakers Ban No-Knock Warrants
Once again, the police have killed a Black man for legally possessing a gun
As a black woman, I’m personally at a loss for words. I hope his family and his community will be able to find some peace. And I hope that one day we can all finally live in a world where these things can stop happening.
I should also mention that in my original post I said 9 minutes when I meant to say 9 seconds. He was shot after 9 seconds of them entering the apartment. Heartbreaking.
Also some other information:
- the cops that did this were denied a no-knock warrant in their own precinct so they went to another precinct not very close by to get it. Intent was had.
The cops involved have a very dark and unsettling past.
I will reblog this version of the post with some more information since the post I made with information is getting zero traction.
EDIT: HERES A LINK TO THE POST WITH INFORMATION
you are definitely right that people are not talking about amir lockes death enough but it's been on the news multiple times over the past f
Briefly want to mention that this case should not be confused with the murder of Isaiah Tyree Williams, who was killed in almost the exact same way on January 10th.
