I'm organising #mutualaid for my best friend in the hopes he can afford to survive in a new country. He urgently needs funds coming up to his chance to leave in Nov-Dec. Donate here: chuffed.org/project/152937 or paypal.me/wubsbian

I'm struggling to buy groceries this week! I am diabetic but healthy food is expensive! A good way to resist fascism is supporting the survival of a Black Trans artist!

According to Bex's doctor, the radiation therapy is working!

The bad news is they need to pay the $3280 remaining balance ASAP!

$20 from your pocket could literally save their life.
Give it today- their treatment has been interrupted several times due to lack of funds.

I don't want to ever have to come here to tell y'all that Zay has perished due to lack of meds, LC complications and lack of shelter.

It doesn't have to be that way, but it almost happened recently.

Please, who can chip in? Who can amplify often?

Zay has been in and out of the hospital and UCC with LC complications. They have been trying to reach a week or two goal since their hospital discharge to stay housed. 43 would at least cover today due by noon. Any aid is appreciated, including amplifying.

A screenshot of Fen's October Bills Goal, here's what it says:

"Posting October Goal a bit early in hopes that some of it will get done.
Also on the first week in the 2nd half of October, my job will be renovating for an entire work week, so I don't know if I can do vacation time or what will happen. Plus my hours can be a bit hectic, honestly.

★ Rent is always $850 a month, so after bills are out of the way, anything towards rent helps with us also getting necessities too during pay days. $106.25 covers me for the week of renovations.
• Electric was $106, so it's safe to assume $150 will cover the next months electric.
• Wi-Fi is $58.17 due on Oct 19th.
• Garbage is $110 every 3 months ($77.50 left so far).

I also need stuff from my Main (Necessities) Throne Wishlist please, it helps us be able to live here easier.

Goals base total right now = $450 (including any possible transfer fees)"
