it’s like post shower lotion and skincare — you don’t know how much you need it until you see the difference it makes
The way my heart is jumping between despair we lost her because folks who should have been protecting her didn't mask and burning hot rage that folks have just accepted the far-right, anti-science, idea of not masking during an air-spread pandemic because "fascism is what everyone else is doing".
@tinu.bsky.social is one of the reasons I'm here today. She introduced me to the idea of mutual aid a few years ago and did immense work for the community despite and in spite of her own struggles with leukemia and long COVID She has my eternal thanks Rest in Power, beautiful angel. You deserve it.
If you aren't masking, you have failed the "what I'm going to do to stop Nazis when they come back" test. You have become a soldier for eugenics. Who have you killed? Who has or will die bc of you? Now is the time to turn & fight the fascism. Mask up. Stop normalizing public eugenics. Right now.
@ariemoyal.com happy birthday!! i’m not late in PST 🫂
start now start today wear a respirator (n95/kn95) be an enthusiastic participant in mutual aid listen to communities sharing their struggle and continuously work to unpack the default paradigm work to retain what they are generous enough to share please dont take people or life for granted
The crux of the whole situation. I can't work. Disability isn't enough to live on. Without the help of folks online, boosting, reboosting, & donating, I will die. Always being a few days from starvation & being unhoused has wrecked me mentally. I need y'all to pay attention before I'm gone.
Need to get offline for mental health again. Please share the 3 MA Asks in this thread. Partner's Mom & my friend are in trouble right now & need a lot of help. Any amount helps more than $0. Boost if you can't donate, please. Need 2 miracles.
Aiming for $600 considering the last appointment cost just under that & we likely need blood work done. Currently at $50/$600 for Tasha, thanks to a quick donator. Thank you Good friends.
