The full story is in the link but the short and sweet of it is, I cannot take out student loans for graduate school until I rehabilitate an old defaulted student loan from like 10 years ago. I’ve already begun the process but it takes 9 months to get the loan out of default. In the meantime, I basically have to pay for graduate school on my own, and can use y'all’s help.
I’ve been a sex worker most of my adult life and a community organizer in Virginia for over five years now. I’m hoping this degree will help me be a more effective organizer and also help me claw my way out of poverty.
I am also going to be posting regular guides on anti-repression, prison abolition, security culture, conflict mediation, sex work, and other topics throughout the summer to showcase some of my knowledge that I can put to good use with this education.

Hi this is a transition fund I set up for my wife, I don't know if this will result in anything but dysphoria is hurting her deeply, and I want to try to help her any way I can. Sharing around to people who have a bigger following or who haven't been much affected by uh current events would be appreciated. Oh, uh, I've never done this before also, so if someone has like advice about doing this, I would probably appreciate that.
no, you would pass as Leo tho

Do you ever look at your pet and go holy shit that is a little beast moving and doing things of its own volition. In my home
Honestly, I don't care who they cast as Percy Jackson in the new tv show, I just want it to be Percy.
Did I have a preconceived notion of what person looked like growing up. Yes. Do I have a couple specific ideas of how I want Percy to look in the show to better represent me and also other people. Yes. But for me, it doesn't matter the face, or the hair, or any of that, as long as it's Percy.
The Percy who taught me that just because I'm different doesn't mean I'm broken, and doesn't mean that I can't accomplish things. The Percy that learns to be proud of who he is, and taught me to be proud of who I am. Heck, Percy Jackson was one of the first characters in Media, one of the first people ever that truly had me questioning my gender, what gender means to me, and who I was, in order to help find my identity. I wanted to be him. Now, he has helped me want to be me.
So come on Disney, do it. Cast an Actor of color, a trans kid, a genderqueer kid, a kid who really is neurodivergent. Or has freckles or acne. Or isn't the "conventional" muscular body type. Don't worry, go ham. Because Percy is Percy, no matter what he looks like. Because it doesn't matter what somebody looks like, it matters who they are.
Because Percy is and always was a good kid. And as long as you have that, you have Percy.
oh really AND WHAT DO YOU THINK IS HAPPENING NEXT WEEK

One of my partners, @foofy-model-260 isn’t doing well and has asked me to make a one note a day post.
She’s decided to keep the reasons private, and you may dm them for details.
For every three notes she won’t consider doing anything. You are limited to eight notes per blog per day.

Everyone's talking about poc actors playing percy jackson and like yessss amazing should happen totally
But also like
- actors with more diverse body types and features (e.g. Plus size, kids with vitiligo, etc)
Also bc most of the cast are entering puberty or are in puberty, actors with acne
- actors who are gender-noncomforming (mostly like older campers bc im not trans and i cant really speak on what trans experience would even look like pre-puberty or just in general)
-actors with physical disabilities
-actors who actually have learning disabilities (like you know, most of the characters in the books)
-actors with autism
-actors with different religious backgrounds
-actors with different sexualities (i mean sexuality doesnt really factor into acting unless its a huge part of their character but it'd still be cool)
Like this could amazing for actors of all different backgrounds and im hoping rick and the casting directors keep their biases in check. Because green contacts and curly blonde wigs exist so the default doesn't have to be white, cis, able-bodied actors with conventionally acceptable appearances
Casting for pjo has officially started, it’s time to bully disney into making Percy a poc. Use any media platform you have, let’s do this
Friendly reminder that we cannot bully any of the kids auditioning for the role of Percy. They are 12 year olds and we need to be kind and supportive to each and every one. We can, however, bully all the adults working at disney
Hey remember when US and Russia was all like “We’re the best!!! We’ve won the space race!!!!” But India sent a kick-ass space probe to Mars and the whole mission was fuel efficient, costed less and a roaring success in the first try and then they were like “…..wait no that can’t be true” and still have the audacity to call us “underdeveloped” or only view us as a ‘third world country’? :)
For anyone who needs more info, the probe was called Mangalyaan (which literally means space probe vehicle) or Mars Orbiter Mission (MOM) and you can also get more information here and here

So, India is dying.
Look, I know a good number of you are from the US and things aren't amazing there either, but my country is literally on the brink of collapse. So I'd love it if we could talk about that for a minute.
If you can't do anything else, please just read and reblog.
A second COVID wave has taken out the healthcare system. There are no more hospital beds. There's an oxygen shortage. There's a critical vaccine shortage. The Central Government has thrown its hands up and is passing the baton to the State Governments to do what they can.
There are over 16 million covid cases. A record 330,000 new cases reported yesterday - comparable to the US at its peak. 187,000 dead as of today.
There is no plan.
Mass cremations are taking place. The cremation grounds are running day and night and they are short on wood. People are watching their loved ones die while waiting for a hospital bed, and then they're unable to give them the proper burial rights.
Hospitals are overwhelmed. Patients are being confined, two to a bed. They're the lucky ones.
We are on the verge of people dying in the streets.
This is the second-most populous country in the world. The largest democracy. A country that encapsulates over 15,000 years of recorded human history and has endured everything from famine to invasion to colonisation.
We might be at the end. This might be the thing that does us in.
People are dying.
People are dying.
People are dying and there is no plan.
More good news? Variants are popping up. A double mutation strain has shown up. It is resistant to current vaccines. This will not go away. This is the devastation they warned of when the anti-maskers were out protesting the minor inconvenience of covering their face in public.
My country is on the verge of an emergency state. Our government has failed us. This is as dire a situation as it ever could be.
Look. I don't do much with my life. I write fics, some of you have read them and that's pretty much it. I spend my days with my head in the clouds because that's where I like to be.
But two days ago, my grandmother tested positive, had to be taken to hospital and the ambulance caught fire.
She barely made it to the urgent care she needs.
So, here I am, using whatever meager platform I have to cobble this request together. Because I have to do something.
If you can, donate.
Or spread the word.
Help. Please.
