I helped my Uncle set up a GoFundMe.
Him nor I have funds to give my Mom who passed away from Lung Cancer at 1 AM today August 13th, 2023 her final wishes: To have a proper burial/funeral.
She worked as a nurse during COVID lockdowns. She caught COVID 5 times. December 6th was the day she found out she had cancer, the same day she was terminated from her job.
My Uncle and I have been taking care of her for months. Please, I beg you, anything helps.
ah so they let all the property (and people) burn because they wanted the land. got it.

unfortunately the federal government can and will do absolutely nothing to help these people. It took the president a while to respond to the Maui fires (vacation lmao) and when first asked if he had any thoughts or plans to help the people his response was "no. no comment"
Only to be immediately followed up with this
The current administration and the federal government don't even bother hiding the contempt they have for not just Hawaiians, but American citizens as a whole.
cackling at this, can NOT believe it's a real, actual quote. it reads so much like one of those clickhole pieces
Someone in an autism facebook group I'm in just asked "How am I supposed to earn enough to make a living without burning out?"
Someone replied: "You're not. Even neurotypicals can't right now in the system designed for them. We're the canaries in the coalmine. When we start failing, they know something is wrong."
People keep saying, "Oh, everyone thinks they're neurodivergent now!" or they'll say it's the foods or chemicals or whatever other nonsense they've fallen for, but to me the answer is so obvious?
We've gotten to a point that more and more people are being left behind by the system, making it so that neurodivergent parents who could get by fine *enough* in decades/centuries past are bringing children into a world that cannot and will not attempt to accommodate them. There's nothing in the water and people aren't faking, it's just that this is no longer sustainable or livable and of course people with disabilities will be hit first and hit the hardest. There aren't more people with it, it's just harder to go through life without being aware that you're not functioning the way your peers seem to be able to.
It’s been a very rough week, and I am in need of help raising some money. I have made a previous post on the matter, but it was lengthy, poorly worded, and I made it while panicking. It’s been a few days, so I had time to calm down and collect my thoughts and focus on what I need now.
Long story short, I just spent my entire savings on saving our house, helping my mom catch up on bills and rent. We’re still behind, but we’re in a much better position than we were before. Earlier in the week my mom’s car broke down, and it’s kaput. She needs a new car. I’ve been driving her to work, but my car was borrowed from my dad, who, turns out, is also at risk of losing his house. Literally the day after I spent all of my savings, he called me and said he wants my car back for resale, and after explaining my situation to him, he has given me a few more months to save enough money to get a new car. So the one car my mom and I have between each other is also going to be taken away soon. There is no possible way for us to walk to work, as our jobs are out of town, and we live in the USA where public transit is nonexistent.
So here’s what I need:
My goal is to raise $5000 USD by October 1st. If the goal isn’t met, I could extend that to November 1st. Any later though, I may not be able to extend any more. This money will go to getting a new car. I work part-time and make little more than $1000 a month, and I need to pay bills on the side, so I would be heavily relying on you guys to help me. I will be raising $400 a month myself to add to savings, the rest going to bills and important things like food. Every dollar that is donated through the links below will be going to my car savings.

all your stuffed animals love you. they're not sad if they're in a box, or on the floor, or not held/played with as much. they understand. they know that you might need another stuffie more, or that you don't have enough space. they're just happy to be with you, and if you ever give them away, they'll be happy there too. stuffies are for comfort. they understand. they love you too. it's okay.
