Hey Fedi friends! It's the end of the month again which means it's time for a new mutual aid request. (This ended up being a little longer than I expected but bare with me! CashApp & PayPal links at the end! :floof_Heart:)
To try and keep this short and since many of the folks who have known me or seen me around the Fediverse know or have an idea of what the current situation is like.
I'm a minor with no source of income outside of coding which does not bring nearly enough in for me to even buy lunch most months so I have to resort to mutual aids or theft (Which got me in a lot of legal trouble, but fuck the corporates.). I need at least enough fundings to support me (Age 16, turning 17 this year) and my younger sibling (age 15).
I am a high school student living in a crappy situation with divorced parents. Where one house, the main house, I am refused basic needs such as, but not limited to, food, water, hygiene, clothing, proper medical care, etc. While the other house, my mothers, is a hoarder mess with little to no food, and when there is non expired food that has not been gotten into by animals, months, mold, maggots, etc, it is often times one of the following: Chocolate, cookies, Twinkies, hostess foods, etc. My mother hoards much more than just garbage but indeed, animals also. (With over 70 animals in the house and dogs who are not potty trained along with more animals, outside of the house).
Neither houses include proper medical care. I have a chronic skin disease that causes me severe pain and if it gets bad enough, it becomes an open wound that tunnels often times on my chest or on my legs. My parents do not supply the proper medications I need for these, and when asked or mentioned needing the medications, I get told "Get a job". (Which I am also not allowed to have.)
I'm constantly at risk of being kicked out of the house at any time without warning, a couple of months ago I was locked out of the house in regards to being trans and using my chosen name tho thankfully this was after a school play and I had a safe place at the time.
CPS does not listen. The cops do not listen. I cannot speak up about any of these issues even to trusted adults as this causes more issues at home and gets CPS involved.
Cost breakdowns for the month! Any extra fundings will be put towards getting my parrot a new urn (His last one unfortunately broke).
MEDICATIONS: $50 (4x meds for chronic disease (3 prescription + 1 one reg), anxiety/insomnia meds, pain killers)
CAT FOOD: $20
TOTAL: $500
NOT URGENT BUT STILL NEEDED: I will be doing commissions in regards to funding for this stuff, it might take a little bit but I'll do it o7
URN REPLACEMENT: $160 (I know this is expensive but it was the cheapest urn I could find that was made with a decent quality that would work better for traveling with him, as this bird means a lot to me, even in death. If you've known or seen me around within my past year and a half ish on Fedi you'd know how much my beloved Leo was worth to me<3)
(We attempted to fix the urn but it didn't work very well as it proceeded to keep breaking and at this point it's cheaper just to replace it)
LAPTOP FIX: $20
(Keyboard had an incident where one of the keys broke and need to be replaced, this was a rough estimate on the price it should cost from a friend. - The laptop doesn't have a warranty 😹 but I need this for personal use + school + studies)
Making a #MutualAid request. My wife lost her job and all the bills have fallen on me completely. I am about $300 shy of covering them. She has applied for unemployment benefits but bills are due by the 21st.
Hey guys, I got into a car accident this week. I can no longer perform my job of doordashing, I also have a ton of expensives relating to the tow. My cashapp is
It's #BandcampFriday babies! As usual, I'm asking music fans to consider spending AT LEAST as much on independent artists today as they spend on their monthly music streaming subscriptions. Most of that money goes to Spotify (or whoever) and the top 1% of artists on the platforms, leaving the majority of artists fighting for scraps.
Spending $10-20 thru #Bandcamp, #Faircamp or simply sending them some money via #KoFi or #cashapp will have a FAR greater impact than giving it to Spotify.
The Chime "Pay Anyone” (lol) receive flow is completely broken. So this weekend I sold a coffee grinder to a Chime employee, he had some nice incentives to dog-food their own Pay Anyone product, I was curious too, so I agreed to trying it over Venmo.
@ayn I guess #Chime isn't available outside of the #USA for that reason and the fact that like #CashApp and #Venmo it reduses to comply with #KYC and/or #AML laws...

I've been making a new game this year & am looking to raise funding support so I can continue it
Its hard work, draws on a variety of skills, & I'm trying hard to bring something truly new & worthy into the world
along with providing endless chances for Mindless Fun it also has educational lessons about democracy & climate. & hints at paths taking us away from dystopic futures, ideally closer to the utopic
A sci-fi, post-apoc, comedy adventure & real-time Roguelike (...)
@mutualaid I have a #GoFundMe link in my #Bio and #Mastodon is kind enough to have come through for me a few times. If you'd like to donate to the go fund me, it would be very appreciated. Other methods of donating are... #1, #Paypal. Paypal.me/brooketg22 and #2 #Cashapp which is $LavenderSnowXX. I also have #ApplePay for anyone with iPhones, and #Venmo which is LaurenCeleste. More stories about why I need help coming soon. #Mecfss#CFS#Migraines#mentalhealth
#Square, the payment processor, has had a global outage for the past 10 hours with no end in site. Apparently #CashApp has also been down all day too.
I chatted with a couple restaurant owners on Mission St who had to send their staff home early because of the outage. Square has had hour-long outages before, but nothing ever as severe as this.
