My monthly check didn’t come because I have to get recertified re SSI, and my depression has been acting up due to not only the change in weather but also due to no Internet to distract me. My past due balance (what I need to pay to get my wifi back up) is $332.26 but overall it’s $514.93. My paypal is girlwatershaman@gmail.com and any amount will do. I just don’t want the bill to keep growing…
Seriously, I don’t want this hanging over my head during the holidays…
If you can’t help then please signal boost

Please help me make ends meet while I get a living
Hi followers,
I’ve been busy studying web development & design this year, and I’m just about ready to try starting a career at last – but as of right now I’ll need some assistance while I put in the finishing touches (such as expanding my portfolio, learning some in-demand frameworks, and getting a better grasp of other professional-level stuff like production tools).
I have to make rent for this month, and a bit of what I owe my roommate besides, and also, y’know, eat and pay bills and generally not die.
I would be extremely grateful if you pitched in via PayPal: https://www.paypal.me/EstherFiddler
If you’re interested: here’s a prototype of my website, where I’ll be showing off what I’ve been working on. Right now there’s some basic design, some interactivity, some dynamic content, and a Wikipedia-parsing web app that implements a feature MediaWiki lacks (recursive category search and a “random in category” button). As of this moment I’m working to clean up existing code, build a Reddit web app (that’d display themed content of choice with featured comments/etc), add much fancier design, greatly expand and improve my old physics demo to turn it into an actual game with “incremental”-style features (you know Cookie Clicker? that, but with orbital mechanics instead of clicking), edit and put up some of my higher-effort tumblr writing, and above all get a steady income source.
Also, I’m overall quite ready to talk employment. I know HTML/CSS/Javascript, the basics of Node, can work with version control, have a grasp of non-terrible web design, 1+ yr experience with commercial writing, business-related research and customer communications, have planned and implemented a logisitcs & sales automation system, am currently learning more web-related skills such as Vue and working with Webpack… So if any of you need some long-distance work done, or know of any relevant opportunities – either on a freelance basis or a junior/apprentice position – go ahead and contact me:
esther.fiddler.1990@gmail.com. (I’ll be actively searching on my own as well, naturally; just plugging a mention for now.)
Thank you ever so much for your love and support! ❤
another reluctant donation post
You may have noticed I haven’t been online for a few weeks. That’s because
I’ve been very sick with a respiratory infection that left me
hardly able to speak or leave bed for almost a month, and cost me dearly in
medications.I’ve just been to my fourth doctor appointment this month and been slapped with an enormous, unexpected bill. This has come atop my insurance premiums now taking a quarter of my tiny income each month, and being prescribed
important and expensive new medications not covered by insurance. All in all, my medical expenses now cost more than my rent. I’m multiply disabled and my total income is about half of what a full time minimum wage job pays.I was able
to work out a payment plan for my doctor bill but even the smallest
payment possible leaves me just barely enough to afford my prescriptions
for the month, with mayyyybe $10 left over for food and transportation
and any other necessities for the next 3ish weeks.I hate to ask again, but I’m a
little desperate. If you’re a financially comfortable adult who
genuinely wants to help,
I have paypal and a wishlist of food and other necessities.I would be deeply grateful for even a dollar. Please don’t feel pressured, though – I know things are tough for a
lot of people right now.
Boozhoo (hello), my name is Ken, I am a disabled Ojibwe artist from northern Wisconsin who has recently relocated to northern Minnesota to be closer to my children and have better access to healthcare. I am writing this post because I am having a hard time making ends meet and any donations I could possibly receive at this time would be greatly appreciated. Recent events have left my bank account depleted and I am still having to help cover the utility bills back home on the reservation for my father who is also disabled.
I do have PayPal, that is really the best way to donate at this time, the email I use for that is: baapimakwa@gmail.com, or you can click here.
My cable bill is overdue.

Hey tumblr family, I’m posting this on behalf of my friend Tara who needs some help, and I’d really appreciate if you could boost this.
Tara is currently living in Manchester (UK) with multiple disabilities, and they are
financially struggling to live on the very limited income they get from
DWP.Tara lives with a number of physical and mental conditions that
make life difficult for them, including: Ehler Danlos Syndrome, Postural
Orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome, Fibromyalgia, Laryngopharyngeal Reflux
Disorder, Post-Nasal Drip, Complex PTSD (post traumatic stress
disorder), Dissociative Identity Disorder, ADHD (Attention Deficit and
Hyperactivity Disorder). What this results in is: severe mobility
issues; chronic pain and fatigue; amnesia/memory problems; difficulty
eating, drinking, talking and breathing; weak joints that dislocate
easily; processing issues dealing with stressful or triggering
situations; and severe social anxiety.They were homeless for
about six months after having to flee a chain of abusive living
situations, which only ended towards the end of 2017. During this time
they were forced to stay in unhealthy, unsuitable and unaffordable
living conditions which were detrimental to their health and safety. Things like being made to climb stairs to get to their room, not being allowed
visitors or food in their room or to use the hotel restaurant/bar. They were also
subjected to invasive room checks and didn’t have any cooling options (not even an open window) during a heatwave. Despite struggling with isolation,
starvation, lack of access to medical care or necessary dental care,
overheating, and acute cardiac symptoms, homeless
services recorded their living situation as “suitable” despite their continual protests, and routinely
recorded that Tara had no complaints against their will. During this
time Tara’s only option to eat was to buy takeaway, which along with the
accommodation being unaffordable resulted in them burning through their
savings and amassing large credit card debts.(If you’re wondering why they were housed in an unsuitable lodging room in a hotel, this is now a common thing in the UK. There’s a lack of suitable housing for people needing help, so they’re paying hotels and pubs to rent out their rooms to people in need, while exploiting the people in need by putting them in often unsuitable accommodation, ultimately to dissuade people from seeking help. The UK benefits system is currently Monstrous for a lot of folks in need who don’t have the support of friends and family who can afford to help them.)
While they finally have better lodgings and a limited amount of Personal Assistant
support (which they found independently without help from the govt), they are however without financial assistance
or government funding to pay for said carer, which means they have had to pay for their care out of their own pocket, on top of the extra living costs
that come with being multiply disabled. They couldn’t even get a wheelchair on the NHS right now due to high wait times and had to pay for one themselves, all of which has resulted in living under a lot of debt, and no means to get out of it.What we hope to achieve with this fundraiser for Tara is:
-being able to pay off some of their debts
-being able to afford to pay for medical necessities such as medicine and consistent visits from a carer/personal assistant
-clothes that actually fit
-being able to replace some of the belongings they lost when they were forced to move from home to home to escape abuse.
If you can, please consider helping. And if you can’t give a donation, signal boosting will help a lot. Thank you ❤
