Hello! My nephew got accepted to the Bioenvironmental Science program at the university of his dreams in Kyoto, KUAS! However, he is not eligible for most student aid since it is not a U.S. school, so we are trying to get funding for him. Please consider donating, every bit helps! πŸ™

The one thing AI has actually made easier is knowing whose opinions to never, ever, take seriously.

Tomorrow is my birthday! πŸŽ‚ If you wanna help make it a good one, please send some #MutualAid our way: linktr.ee/virtuistic

We haven't been able to celebrate much since my full time, breadwinning job got DOGE'd two weeks before my 40th birthday. My partner's family can't help with money; mine is 🚩☣️!

Sebastian was able to make the payment for the Admission Fee yesterday, thanks to all of you! Words can't properly express how much we appreciate your support. We've still got a ways to go to get enough for his tuition and housing, so please share wherever you can! ❀️

It’s day 118 of the ICE occupation of MN.

As the end of the month approaches, once it seems like every Minnesotan is raising money for mutual aid rent funds.

Go to StandWithMinnesota.com to keep Minnesotans housed.

Has everyone forgotten that TSA is a complete waste of money and time? They shouldn't be getting funded any more than ICE should. Perhaps a refresher on how useless they are is in order.

Look, I moderated a Harry Potter Livejournal community. I wrote a lot of Harry Potter fanfic (including a story about a major character being trans). I met a lot of my best friends because of Harry Potter. If I can give that shit up because the author is ACTIVELY WORKING TO KILL PEOPLE, so can you.

Thread. I'm begging people to realize how much we've already given in just the past 25 years. I'm old enough to remember when surveillance wasn't ubiquitous and before ICE or the TSA existed. There was even a time when the average cop wasn't kitted out for full on urban warfare.

UPDATE: Goal upped to $325,000 to keep families housed

It may be sunny and warm, but 🧊 is still in Minnesota and our neighbors still need help. Rent is due in just over a week, and many in our communities are struggling to pay bills.

Please share widely + donate @ NeighborReliefFund.org πŸ˜πŸ’Έ

πŸ†• from me: I know it's a massive understatement to acknowledge that there's *a lot* going on in the world right now, but this is extremely important to me and the people and planet I love. The Trump admin's attempt to fast-track oil sales is dangerous.

I keep thinking on this quote I loved so much I had to meme it.

Being an Aries, I sometimes feel like I run on anger, but my trauma history also gets me feeling shame or worry about the intensity and duration of my emotions. These words remind me to transmute the feels into purposeful action.πŸŒ±βœ¨πŸ’š

UPDATE: $450/1,800

Sincere thanks to everyone who has supported us so far! ✊🏼 Sadly, Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey refuses to sign the unanimous call to enact an eviction moratorium, so we still need help by 1/31.

UPDATE: I'm still looking for work, and I'll be vulnerable and admit it β€” I'm starting to feel scared. I only have two weeks of unemployment insurance remaining, after which point we won't have income to cover our essential bills.

So, I'm adjusting a bit and made this:
