Peace. Love. Mayhem.

Morning 🙏 I'm still outside and would like nights in a hotel room, something to eat and $$ for some Lyft rides to get my testosterone this Thursday. And I need to pick up refills of my antidepressants, mood swings and anxiety medicine. (I can't lose a day or two without my medication or else I'll get night terrors and spiral :( it's a big deal and don't want to act paranoid in public)

We still have next week for us to go get the truck! But I want to rest up and finally get my prescription for my T and I'll be good 😭

Like I said an estimate for today and Thursday is $600 so I can have rest until I go get my T, I really need it for my life purpose, if I don't get it I wouldn't be okay.

I’d read the articles that young people have no privacy and have become so accustomed to it that they enact on themselves. Abstractly I knew this and had accepted it, but it’s only now that I’m seeing it become a major issues.

Obviously part of the problem is I need to become a trusted member of my new fandom. But fandom in general is becoming far more hostile to privacy than even just 5 years ago.

I’ve had to leave 3 servers that want to do age verification. And this is new. Not even 5 years ago when I started zines ppl just turning 18-20 were far more receptive to the ideas espoused by us older folks about not being surveilled. But now it almost feels like they *want* to be surveilled.

They’ve become so used to it from tiktok and their government that they crave it. I’d write a dystopia about it but unfortunately what even is there to say that hasn’t already been said?

If you’re 18-22 now and you’re reading this and willing to listen without immediately calling me suspicious: this is not normal. Age verification will not keep you safe and will not keep minors safe either. It will only lead to the normalization of further surveillance and erosion of your privacy.

I know it can be an unwieldy text especially if you’re not used to reading academic sources, but go read The Panopticon. Watch V for Vendetta or read the comic, read 1984. Watch The Lives of Others and understand the ways this modern era is not so different from the Stasi in the film.

Please.

Wyland has said any financial recovery from the suit would support public art, ocean conservation, and environmental education through his foundation.

we didn't even manage to raise the money for his immune globulin injection last week, and we are now, on top of that, about $1k in debt to the doctor for the iv fluids he had to take for that.

that has to be paid for in conjunction with his urgent digoxin injection, which he will die without, which means the minimum amount we have to raise by tuesday 4 pm gaza time is $2,129.

i am really not feeling optimistic, because we had to urgently evacuate the family last week from israel's active bombing and no one cared enough to contribute almost any donation at all, even as small as $5 - only a small handful of people chipped in.

if we don't get this money before the end of tuesday, ammar will need over $6k, as it will include an intensive injection on top of everything we already have to pay

and i know we're not going to get that, so really what will happen is he will die

i don't know what i can say to convince you to help keep him alive, but i beg you not to let israel successfully kill him

thank you to the people who donated - we did raise enough in order to purchase ammar's digoxin injection

however, because we didn't pay for the iv fluids debt, we won't be able to borrow any in advance should we fail to raise funds for the immune globulin injection

the deadline for this is 10 am wednesday gaza time, or about 10 and a half hours from now. this would let us remain on time

we need to reach $3114 in order to have raised enough for both the immune globulin injection and the debt we owe, aka $1959 more

please help ammar. we can't just not pay for this, and he will be in great danger without medicine to support his condition should we be unable to raise his injection in time

IF I DIE, PLEASE HELP MY FAMILY SURVIVE AFTER ME.

I am still in need of help. I need days in a hotel to fully rest. I haven't slept much last night because of anxiety (sleeping outside isn't fun ok) and my blanket is dirty so I didn't sleep on it, I want to clean it at a hotel and actually get sleep. I keep having panic attacks out here. I need to eat and sleep. Like I said an estimate for today and Thursday is $600 so I can have rest until I go get my T, I really need it for my life purpose, if I don't get it I wouldn't be okay. I'm serious I want to get out of the sun, I'm going crazy.

Can anyone please help me eat today and get a bus pass? 0/30
