but never this gay earth

the average human lifespan globally is 70+ years

taking the threshold of adulthood as 18, you are likely to spend at least 52 years as a fully grown adult

at the age of 30 you have lived less than one quarter of your adult life (12/52 years)

'middle age' is typically considered to be between 45-65

it is extremely common to switch careers, start new relationships, emigrate, go to college for the first or second time, or make other life-changing decisions in middle age

it's wild that I even have to spell it out, but older adults (60+) still have social lives and hobbies and interests.

you can still date when you get old. you can still fuck. you can still learn new skills, be fashionable, be competitive. you can still gossip, you can still travel, you can still read. you can still transition. you can still come out.

young doesn't mean peaked. you're inexperienced in your 20s! you're still learning and practicing! you're developing social skills and muscle memory that will last decades!

I used to prep, wash dishes, and cook at mellow mushroom. I had chronic pain that wasn't NEARLY as bad as it is today, but it was still very debilitating. I told my employer "i cannot stand more than 4 to 6 hours. I CANNOT do shifts longer than this due to my illness." And even though i made my boundaries VERY clear, everyday i worked it was 8 hours at the least and 10 or 12 at the most. I would go up to my manager and say "look i really need to leave, my shift is over, my chronic pain is killing me." And he'd say "we really need to here, you HAVE to push through." And so i did, and after one, ONE month of that job my crps got incredibly worse to the point where i could no longer walk my dog around the block which was .5 miles. I quit, and that was FOUR years ago, and ever since that day I HAVE BEEN BEDRIDDEN AND HAVE TO USE A WHEELCHAIR. It is my biggest regret in life.

My best friend who has seen my whole journey has recently developed undiagnosed chronic pain, and she is in the EXACT same scenario i was 4 years ago. Busting her ass at a pizza place with extreme pain that hurts her so much she tells me "im in so much pain i don't even feel like a person." She doesn't feel LUCID. And her manager and coworkers are saying the same thing "if you don't help us you will let us down, we'll be in the shit."

a mosque in scotland had to be put into lockdown. they are going door-to-door with hit lists and addresses in northern ireland, setting houses alight. they firebombed an imam's house in manchester. people of colour are being targeted and attacked by racist mobs in the street in broad daylight.

The doctor said she needs a course of treatment costing 850 € to improve her health and restore her consciousness.

Please help me, don't leave me alone.😭

I don't want to lose my wife; I've already lost my mother and older brother, and I can't bear to lose anyone else in my family. I feel like I'm living in a terrible nightmare. Please help me.

My eyes won't stop crying. My little baby needs his mother's embrace. Please stand with me to raise the money to buy her a course of treatment.

Please Save My Wife Now ..😭

Why is everyone ignoring me? What kind of cruel world is this? 💔

Why are you leaving me alone while my wife is fighting for her life? I write these words with tears and a heart full of pain. 😭😭

Where is the humanity and compassion for a woman dying because of lack of treatment?

These may be my last words or the last time I write a post about my wife and my family, so I will not forgive anyone who sees this post and does not support me with a single word and ignores me.💔😭😭

Please, I beg you, don't ignore me. Donate before it's too late. I don't want my wife to die.

Why are you leaving me alone while my wife is fighting for her life? 😭😭
