reminder that donating just a few $ to gofundme campaigns actually helps, you don't have to donate huge amounts if you don't have the funds, every little bit is useful. give $10, $5, even $1. it all adds up. don't scroll past because you think you can't help. help in your own capacity. donate a dollar. share and speak up.
A huge crowd of pro-Palestine protests have gathered ahead of tonight's Eurovision semi-final in Malmö, where Israel will be one of the participating countries.
Israel's representing artist, Eden Golan—who was initially supposed to perform tonight with the song "October Rain," before the EBU forced Israel to rewrite it into the little less overtly genocidal "Hurricane"—has promised that the first thing she'll do after returning from Eurovision, is to join the IDF:
Reminder again to BOYCOTT EUROVISION 🇵🇸
And if you're in Malmö, please join the protesters!
Hey all, I'm posting this as the last of last resorts; I came up against a few financial emergencies in the last few months (I got laid off from my job, had a gap in pay while I transitioned into a new job, my car broke down, and my cat got sick and needed emergency vet care). These emergencies in addition to the, frankly, insane rate of inflation put me in a position where I was behind on my rent and, despite all efforts to prevent it, my landlord has now filed for eviction.
I am soclose to being able to pay the back rent; unfortunately, I have to wait for another paycheck, which is past the deadline of the date I have to respond in order to prevent a 24-hour vacate notice. I am not able to get a loan or borrow from friends/family. If I am evicted, I don't have another place to go and having the eviction on my record would make it even harder to find a new place, especially in such a short time frame.
I have been in this apartment for five years. I am catching up on my bills/finances, and I have gotten a second job, plus I have begun setting up other sources of income (Etsy, freelance writing, etc). My lease is up in October, at which point I'm prepared to move, but I am trying to stay here until then.
If anyone can donate anything at all, I would greatly appreciate it. If you can't donate anything, a reblog would also suffice, and I greatly appreciate that, too. I am also willing to (temporarily, insofar as for the sole purpose of trying not to be homeless) commission, uh, fictional writing for a thing that rhymes with standom, iykyk. Links are below, and I thank you in advance for any and all interaction with this post, whether it is donation, signal boosting, or otherwise.
Dear, sweet, Littlefoot, do you remember the way to the Great Valley? I guess so. But why do I have to know if you’re going to be with me? I’ll be with you. Even if you can’t see me. What do you mean I can’t see you? I can always see you.
