  ➡️ RENT Fundraiser ⬅️ 💸 🙏 LESS THAN A WEEK GOAL: 430£ / 1,500£ for rent due on the 1st of August, also some for food and bills. @DionTheBlackDragon and me are two trans, disabled, neurodivergent abuse survivors, recovering from eating disorders and chronic (in @DionTheBlackDragon 's case lifelong and severely disabling!) malnutrition, trying to get on our own feet but relying on mutual aid until we get there. Y'all have already helped us through and out of horrible situations...

  by brain is currently too mush to do anything besides watching yt videos on nature regeneration. I find some good ones, but the algorythm keeps pushing horrible slop at me, riddled with errors. so depressing. I remember when the sidebar of youtube was videos similar to the one you just watched... if it was part of a series, you'd see the next parts of that series... when will the nature of mindlessly watching videos on the internet be restored to its former glory?! 😩

  This is my current rabbit hole 🤩 People using simple methods to harvest storm water, heal landscapes, prevent erosion and floods, capture water for ecosystems and neighbourhoods alike... It's a humble mindset that invites awe and wonder while being light-hearted and rollling up their sleeves like "ok let's DO THIS!" and not letting the coloniser/capitalist mindset get in the way. Seeing things get better than seemed possible before. But it is happening. A Glimpse into th...

  RE: https://climatejustice.social/@Aurin_the_classtraitor/116743365494586742 looked in the fridge, realised I need to go grocery shopping again tomorrow. help we're running out of money and it's over halfway into the month and we are getting NOWHERE with paying that, let alone nex months which will be due soon...

  currently thinking a lot about how much less disabled I'd probably be if the general attitude in society to people – INCLUDING CHILDREN!!!! CHILDREN ARE PEOPLE!!!! – struggling or being slow or avoiding tasks would be to accomodate them and be patient, rather than to be annoyed or punish them. My earliest memories are of constantly getting chided for being slow. Sometimes it was good-naturedly, sometimes sternly, sometimes I was actually punished (slow at eating? not getting to eat my fill...

  URGENT! OVERDUE! ➡️ June Fundraiser ⬅️ 💸 🙏 GOAL: 757£ / 1,750£ for RENT - OVERDUE!! Rent was due on the 1st. Have had to spend a lot of what we already raised on food and bills (have given up on clothes). @DionTheBlackDragon@blackqueer.life and me are at the end of the overdraft again and need FOOD 🍽️ Since this was the fundraiser for the entire month, we already spent part of it to survive so far. Need to buy food and pay bills in addition to rent. We're two trans, disabled, neurodiv...

  This pride month I wanna shout about how non-/pre-transitioning trans people are awesome! Some trans people can't medically transition! Some chose not to or not yet or some combination/complicated other thing! And it can suck. I mean I personally have dysphoria and I wish I could change my body, but other things took precedence and medical transitioning is not in view. I deal with it. And I am proud to be trans. And I'm not any less trans than a hundred people who transition. Nor d...

  I went grocery shopping today! YAY! :D Now we have nice food in again! Breakfast is again a possibility! Plus, I baught ingredients for pasta and potato salads cause I like to eat those when it's hot, cause they're cold yet filling. And then I napped for a couple of hours and I let myself because I remembered that that's ok and I don't have to force myself to do things when I'm the kind of exhausted that can be fixed with rest. It does mean I'm awake at night again, b...

  This pride month I am proud to be a sex-repulsed aro-ace person. I don't love romantically and I won't have sex or even kiss anyone, not even to please my partner. This is how I am most happy. I bent myself out of shape for someone once upon a time, but no more. I like being me.

  Need money to dream - poverty sucks the joy out of life and attempts to squash our energy and spark. But it doesn't have to be this way! Refuse to play by capitalism's rules!

  ➡️ Weekly Fundraiser ⬅️ GOAL: 40€ / 400€ Through y'alls solidarity, we got through April! Unfortunately it's a new month and we need food now. That's why I'm making weekly goals for this month. I'm also expecting some income from working, but it won't be much yet - unless someone else wants to hire me :) We're two trans, disabled, neurodivergent abuse survivors, recovering from eating disorders and chronic (in @DionRa 's case lif...

  I'm just reminded of how undermining people's trust in science and experts - as done by tobacco and fossil fuel advertising campaigns - is a strategy of propaganda and even psychological warfare. They're still doing that. But now we even have the extra level of having to mistrust ART and HUMANITY and even CASUAL CHITCHAT because it could be LLM slop. And it feels like an intentional attempt to break our trust, just as with "oh, what do doctors know about lung...

  Worker's struggles aren't just for better pay or better working conditions - as important as those are! - but for the liberation of the entire working CLASS. That includes unemployed people, stay-at-home housekeepers and parents, children, elders, homeless and disabled people too (whether we work or not). We're all in this together. The oppression of the underclass, making those who cannot or refuse to work soul-crushingly miserable and often outright dead - that&#3...

  RE: https://climatejustice.social/@Aurin_the_classtraitor/116380226499850511 I'm starting to get really scared again... Only a few days left to fundraise for rent! And our landlord has just sold the house, so the new owner is only keeping me as a tenant out of curtesy. We can't afford to be late on our FIRST rent payment with the new landlord 😬

  As depressing as it is to be flooded with doom content all the time, it kinda proves, in a roundabout way, that humans are good people on average. If we weren't, we wouldn't need this gigantic propaganda machine to try and, often unsuccessfully!, convince us that people are bad and things are hopeless so why bother trying (here, get enraged about crap that doesn't matter and that you can't do anything about instead!) This level of propaganda doesn't just...

  ➡️ April Fundraiser ⬅️ GOAL: 20€ / 1200€ For rent, bills, food etc. I'm really struggling with depression and suicidal thoughts atm, which I know on some level is me processing past trauma and healing, but right now it sucks and money worries are the last thing we need. Cause Dion is also really struggling with his health. We're two trans, disabled, neurodivergent abuse survivors, recovering from eating disorders and chronic (in @DionRa 's case lifelong!) malnutritio...

  Privilege really messes with data. Privileged people, like conformist* white men for example, will not know what the heck they are talking about and still have all the confidence in the world and speak with authority - and be listened to and taken seriously! Marginalised people who DO know what they know, on the other hand, are neither asked nor even often tolerated to speak about it. When we do, we often downplay our expertise and certainty and are not believed, are doubted, belittled or hav...

  A LOT of the times that people treated me like I was crazy was when I resisted oppression they had normalised. They saw me "making a fuss" about "nothing" and punished me with everything from judgemental looks to death threats. Often, I couldn't articulate why I was acting out. No one would have listened anyway. But looking back, it's just so clear that in this society, and in my family, having instinctual reactions against things that feel o...

  Resist & Rest Pro-Counselling 🖤❤️‍🩹 Dion and I are working on a project with the goal of reducing the amount of trauma in the world, enabling those who get attacked by the current systems of injustice and/or are fighting back, to rest and recover so they can resist another day. We'll build this up step by step, keeping our own recovery as a priority because we can't teach what we don't live :') As part of this project, I am now offering counselling sessio...
