sooo, I'm fucked. I need money to pay bills and food urgently and my work depends 100% on my mental health that is 100% kaput those days because of money.

I've been spiraling for almost 15 days trying to find a solution and if not due to some other help I've recieved I do not know where I'd be.

Basically, my dad screws me over money, I get in a real bad place, I can't work at all, everything goes downhill really fast.

I can do some tarot reading and simple pixel arts and stuff

I have a ko-fi that I think should be working. https://ko-fi.com/ardydo

Theorically I have a paypal too but I dunno if it does let me recieve money from overseas easily. No paypal.me link for me.

If you can boost this I'll be forever grateful for y'all. 🥺

heey, what are the tags that people are using? I'll be doing a post soon and I'd like to know;

It's 22 o'clock, time for a plushie.

wanna help two homeless queers survive 'til my first paycheck?

I had to drop like $300 on licensing for my new job. good news: it pays almost like a "real job", once it starts. bad news: right now I need money for my phone+data bill and my boyfriend's meds. we're officially out of savings.

anything helps- phone's not due for a couple of weeks, meds are needed asap and should be $40.

thanks to everyone!

hey everyone, opening regs for a bit in case someone from cybre is looking for a new server presently.

the usual reminder: we are a small, quite heavily moderated server. if you want reach, we might not be the place for you, if you want a relatively peaceful experience, we might be (though in the end, you can move servers now so )

I'm reposting this at the request of the original poster, who is setting a personal boundary on replies.

It was posted by the @Tutanota account this morning, by the looks of the time. The original post has been deleted, followed by a curt apology from the company and no further information.

Personally, I don't feel like that is good enough, especially for a company that advocates for privacy.

Privacy is a human right, but it isn't the only one -- dignity matters just as much. To publicly post a racist meme makes Mastodon hostile for POC users.

That behavior operates under the implication that Mastodon is for white people, which is supremacist. It's unacceptable, and I have personally deleted my account with Tutanota.

Tutanota, you permitted someone with this toxic of a mindset to fester inside your company. To me, it's compromised. You need to come clean to your users about what happened, what steps you've taken to address it (internally and externally), and an apology that sounds more heartfelt, and understanding of the impact of this on your users and on the Mastodon community.

I don't personally care where the meme originated from. I've been on the internet going on thirty years, I know edgelord trash when I see it. Very disappointing.

Boosts appreciated.

Before someone comes with "but authors need to be paid"... are authors being paid now, with draconian copyright and everything? Is it easy to get published and make money out of selling books? Is it easy to live off just of writing books? Isn't there a huge number of aspiring authors working their asses off with no compensation? Aren't authors being exploited and scammed by the big corps?

tysm 4 coming to my ted talk

I have a friend being detained against her will in a psychiatric hospital in Portugal.

If there's anyone who knows mental health regulations in Portugal, I would be keen to talk.

Please boost.
