I'm gonna be live tomorrow for the LATE shift of the @fruitiesteam.bsky.social Masquerade raid train.

Gonna start stream around 3-3:30 am ET and hang out, maybe provide a chill atmosphere while I hang out and play Borderlands or Destiny 2 (kinda depends on my vibe).

“Daddy…we just want to live like before”
Small words from my kids, yet they fall on my heart like a mountain.

I'm trying to provide my family with the simplest of needs.. but sometimes I feel the weight is too heavy to carry alone.💔

Your support can ease this burden.🙏

Update: water heater is dead, $2400 for a new heater & installation :')
I'm hoping I qualify for a decent financing option. For now I'm keeping the goal at $1k, but may change it if need be. Thank you again for all the support so far 💖

Fox (any pronouns!) 🦊🌙 @divinevulpes.bsky.social · 1d

No goal until I know $$ amount better but just for reference water heater repairs/replacements can run up into the thousands. I'm sure they'll offer a payment plan but I'd like to not be several more thousands in debt if I can help it.

The concept of the 'deserving poor' is capitalist poison. Your worth isn't determined by how hard you fight or how much you suffer. My worth is non-negotiable. Aid isn't a reward for being a 'good' survivor; it’s a necessary tool for being an alive survivor. Solidarity disregards the purity test.
