Like others, I'm restarting my Ko-fi and doing more blogging there. I set a goal for donations for those who wish to support me in obtaining a new laptop. Mine is about 8 years old and failing.

That's okay, because we don't like her either.

Thank you so much for this 💖

My disability was wrongfully denied and my hearing to appeal isn’t until March 11 - my phone bill (around 100 cad) is 4 days late. I have pay links in bio but also a fundraiser to try to survive. Anything helps, seriously 🫂 💕💸 Shares too!

Gonna redo my pinned here:

I should know by the end of next week if I have to go to the Tribunal or not to get on disability ( #ODSP)

Hoping to whatever God there is that it’s approved otherwise I’m kinda fucked lol.

Anyways.

I got COVID and need to urgently get shit - #MutualAid 💕💸 #HelpSky

Sin @sinfulqt.bsky.social · Jul 16

Set a fundraiser up. This is very urgent, so I ask that anyone who can share - PLEASE consider doing so! Feel free to share with friends/family too.

The image on the campaign is a text I received *today* from my mother informing me I may be kicked out. 💕💸 #helpsky

And here is the relocation fundraiser!

I've set the goal to $10,000 for now, but I might lower it if a cheaper option comes along. I've moved the leftovers from the laptop fund to this one.

Allons-y!

The reason this might be solidarity is because an informed populace is harder to trick. One needs to understand the board before one sits at the game. When you see people playing that have no idea what the stakes are then you can tell them, and they can react accordingly.

Today solidarity might look a lot like understanding what precisely posse comitatus is and why people might be talking about title ten.

This is a very good time to make sure we all know what is legal, what is extralegal, and what things which are being shattered are laws v norms.
