Imagine the most stressful day of your life, and then imagine it took place in a warzone where food and water were far from guaranteed and your children were at the mercy of the elements. Sama'a needs our help; please give what you can.

My baby girl Talia is only four months old, facing the cold, wind, and storms in Gaza.

There are no walls to protect her, and no blankets to keep her warm.

A mother’s heart trembles with fear for her—will mercy reach her and shield her from this cruel cold?

- Sama’a 🤍

She wearing an orchid colored dress with a flowery print of light blue and dark purple, and covered from the waist down with a white muslin cloth patter me with little lavender flowers. She has light brown skin and dark brown hair. Baby Talia, lying on a beige cushion with a dark blue pillow under her head. She is wearing maroon pants and a matching sweater with big butterfly on the front, with pink and white frills for the wings. She has short curly dark hair and is looking directly at the camera with her big brown eyes. Baby Talia sleeping on her back in a wrought iron bassinet with a flowery print mattress of sepia tones. She is wearing white footie pajamas with pink flowers and bows down the front. Her three year old sister, Julia, is kneeling behind the bassinet, looking into the camera and holding a thumbs up. She has light brown skin, big brown eyes, and her dark brown hair is pulled back. They are in a tent. Baby Talia and 3 year old Julia lying on their backs on a beige mattress. Talia is wearing fuzzy white hooded footie pajamas with a little bear embroidered on the chest. She looks like she is crying. Julia is next to her, holding her hand and smiling. She is wearing a purple velour sweater with Marie from Aristocats on the front. Her dark brown hair is in two buns.

Ko-fi.com/ItsLadyMonroe CROWDFUND: HELP XENA NO LONGER BE HOMELESS WITH DONATIONS & COMMISSIONS GOAL: 10K Heya, I am a disabled survival sex worker, I was made homeless 2 months ago. I am not on disability because they declined me even though due to my disability I cannot work a regular job. I am a illustrator, graphic designer, music producer and 3D sculpture. I do commissions for regular businesses as well as sex workers. Banners, posters, collectible card, sticker designs, illustrations, logos and more! you can check out my Ko-fi. I am trying to raise 10k to permanently end my homelessness. That will secure my permanent housing, give me grace whenever my disability has me bed ridden and it will keep me fed! I know it may seem like a but it will literally change my life forever. I grew up poor, I can make that stretch. if you able to donate, no matter how small I appreciate you! I love taking on commissions, so please feel free to contact me if you need work done.

If even half of my followers sent me 5 dollars, then that would cover what we need for rent and give us some cushion while I wait to start a new job.

Please, if you can spare anything, it helps.

Saw this flyer at a shop yesterday;decided to reach out to my HOA to organize a food drive in my neighborhood.

Private effort is completely inadequate to replace the $Billions of food aid being cut, but doing *something* matters...plus community building is the real solution & basis for all change.

Possible new AI-driven impersonation scam spinning up: someone contacts you out of the blue w/ praise for your work, recommends you contact a (real) literary agent & provides an email addy--but of course it's fake & results in a referral for editing or marketing. Example below 1/2
Hi [redacted] I’ve had the opportunity to review your work, and it’s clear you have a strong command of storytelling and a distinctive voice. Your writing shows real potential for a broader audience. For this reason, I’m recommending you reach out to [agent name redacted], an independent literary agent known for her discerning eye and commitment to helping authors build lasting careers. [agent name reacted] represents a wide range of genres in both fiction and non-fiction, and has collaborated with authors such as [redacted] and [redacted]. She’s currently open to queries and can be reached at submission.[agentname]@gmail.com. When you contact her, mention that I referred you this will help ensure your work receives proper consideration. Best regards, Chiara Chiara Bianchi chiaraforauthors@gmail.com ChiaraForAuthors ...

Speaking of donating, I'm thrilled that we did raise enough money for my friend M to get her family into a new, cheaper apartment!

Just a reminder that Freydis Moon's new book is going to released tomorrow and that they are NOT Latinx or Mexican. They are a serial Brownfisher who loves to appropriate and steal from BIPOC people and be a cyberbully on top of that.

Please give your money to real Latinx Authors instead.

Fake agency alert: Dan Baror International Literary Agency, obviously trying to trick writers into believing they're being contacted by Baror International Inc. (a real agency). The About Us page has been "borrowed", in re-worded form, from the real Baror website danbaror-intliteraryagency.com
