I'm doing everything I can with the limited resources I have. One of those things is asking for help. I set up a GoFundMe for them. If you can contribute financially, every dollar helps. gofund.me/a655ae010

Alright, it was suggested to me that I actually crowdfund the out of pocket cost for the lumbar MRI since my insurance keeps denying the day before the appt even w/ it as an important order. I will have more info in the replies as well. I was honestly hesitant but... ko-fi.com/portaltohades

🚨🚨 I have appealed to you with all the pain and hope in my heart; will my plea find its way to your compassionate hearts?😔 My child Omar is very sick; he has lost weight due to malnutrition. Every time he tried to walk, he fell to the ground😭 I need $100 to buy food.😭🙏🏼👇 tinyurl.com/4rdnwyzx

Please give if you are able. No one will save us but us and Palestinians are us. Merci de faire un don si vous le pouvez. Personne ne nous sauvera à part nous-mêmes, et les Palestiniens, c'est nous.

I know there's going to be a mixed response to this but there's only one week - until August 4th - left to leave a comment about the ATF's change to background check forms that would de facto single out and ban trans people from legally buying firearms.

honestly all the bullshit has radicalised me. i am now a trans sports maximalist. if lebron james transitions and dominates the WNBA for 20,000 years? i don't give a shit. fuck you

If you ask the question, what did those who actually had compassionate hearts to see the horrific suffering of fellow humans in Gaza gain with that election, ask yourself what did you gain by not caring. What did you gain by thinking you could have a wonderful life here while they're destroyed?

LRP leave kids alone you fucking freaks. leave them alone whether they're trans or cis or gender conforming or not or gay or not or intersex or not or whatever it is: leave them alone, you goddamn creepy horrible motherfuckers

That's what taxes are, man. That's the definition of taxes. "You are subsidizing things you might never use" man shut the fuck up. My taxes currently subsidize like oil company exec private jets, you think I'm upset at low-income people eating inexpensive bananas?

USA TODAY Opinion@usatodayopinion.usatoday.com · 3d ago

Opinion: Mamdani's idea may sound appealing, but it's NYC taxpayers who will take the hit, subsidizing discounts they may never even use.

giving this one more boost as things are still very tight and some promising job leads evaporated, but so appreciative of everyone who has contributed 🫶🫂🧡

I really hope this takes off. There needs to be a creative storefront marketplace that actually bans genai and drop shipping, and I hope it's a 100% ban. Etsy is completely ruined and not artist friendly. Much luck to Fybe! fybe.art

Good framing.

Every now and then someone takes a run at me along the lines of "I don't understand why you, a scifi writer, don't appreciate 'AI'," and I'm all, motherfucker, it's *because* I'm a science fiction writer I have the positions I have, how many times do we have to fucking yell "torment nexus," my dude

I’ve reached the “we know you’ve been working here for years, but now we need you to work even harder to prove you’re better than AI and justify keeping your own job” phase of the day job

An initiative on the ballot in Washington state in November would require all athletes seeking to play girl's sports from kindergarten to high school to undergo "genetic screening, a testosterone-levels test, or an examination of their reproductive anatomy" before they can play

It’s important to understand that when 1.2 million Americans are dying from a disease, any government action is excessive and tyrannical, but if a dozen trans women want to play soccer no government action can go far enough

The WNBA has never had a trans woman play in the league’s 30-year history and now the right and other anti-trans activists are hammering the league over something that has never been an issue, proving once again it isn’t about protection but exhibiting cruelty toward trans people.
