spent a while on TikTok today, just scrolling through videos being taken of people literally being disappeared, videos of people narrating the horrors of this administration up close and personal.

y'all know I rarely if ever post other people's shit directly. I'm doing that today.

the point is it could be any of us. the neighbour of these folks is someone I know well, and while their original fundraising goals were met, there are thousands of families both in and outside of Maine who are having people disappeared every single day. if you don't donate to this one, find a fundraiser for a disappeared person nearer to you.

share it. share it unsanitised. I know that it is okay to need to take time for ourselves and to put our own needs above all but we NEED to see these things happening to realise just how real the horrors are. there's knowing and then there's knowing and then there's it being so real that you start thinking about what you would do if that was your loved one. the person whose video this is is someone I've known for nearly the entire time I've been on TikTok, who is steady and reliable and on point and very on the nose about current events and matters of importance as they come up. I trust him, and the video speaks for itself.

trigger warning obviously someone was disappeared and kidnapped by ICE. for no reason whatsoever.

even people with legal status are being affected. people who are going through all the steps needed to remain here legally. people who have green cards are being threatened, people who have citisenship this vague nebulous removal of citisenship that isn't even in the heretofore powers of the president. none of those rules matter anymore, it's 1984 and Brave New World writ large.

these funds are going directly to those families' needs, in ways that will not impact any benefits or legal proceedings that these families may currently have. these are immigrant families and the person being grabbed is often the breadwinner for the family, adding financial insecurity to the massive pile of legal costs to get things 'sorted out' if that is at all possible.

share this. put it everywhere on the internet. it's already viral I'm late to the trend and it's still just as fucking important.

be good trouble.

Hey
We're #non-binary #queer #poly #plural #trans #otherkin folks who find ourselves in an unemployable situation in an ever more Nazi country. We need financial help to survive and help others in even worse situations than ours. The #Vulpibus is our home, our lab, #rescue vehicle and #hackerspace on wheels. We're building it out but need funds for materials to do it right.

Every day we receive help from #mutualaid is one more day we can keep the dream alive. Our work is open source and for the benefit of everyone. Let's keep it that way!

hey #LosAngeles #SanFernandoValley #SFV #VanNuys, who is able-bodied and can come over and help me move this week? I'm just moving across the yard, it should be easy enough but my spouse and I are just too disabled. we at least offer our endless gratitude. #Crowdfund #Crowdfunding #Deaf #DeafCrowdfund #DirectGiving #Disabled #DisabledCrowdfund #FinancialAid #HelpFolksLive #HelpFolksLive2025 #July #Mazeldon #Moving #MovingFund #MutualAid #MutualAidNeeded #MutualAidRequest #Tzedakah

seriously three strong people in their 20s should be able to do most of the move necessary in one to two days. I'm basically begging at this point.

I've made a lot of progress in physical therapy the past two years but five minutes of standing in front of my desk trying to box it up? my heart rate's nearing 140 and my back is screaming at me.

if I go at the rate I am physically capable of, it will never get done.

I'd rather get help from strangers on here than from strangers on Craigslist or other service ads sites. historically bad luck at the latter. please share and tag anyone who might be able to help.

if not please help me with money so I can hire movers to come and do what we cannot. even moving just across a yard is expensive and I haven't yet done so because I want things to be ready but at some point it will be what it is.

Outside of living costs, my wheelchair batteries are slowly approaching end of life due to... idk planned obsolescence bullshit with lithium-ion batteries and how much you can charge them and get out of them per charge as they get older and-- a lot of shit I don't understand but the point IS, they're slowly dying on me.

My wheelchair is how I go places without a million exhaustion Every Time. The optimal OEM replacement is $500 (plus whatever shipping); I can't even figure out what non-OEM option might work, plus I'd rather not risk fires and explosions. (Mind you, I don't know why a 24v 20Ah (480Wh) battery is $500 but that's fucking disability markup for you. )

(Also, I need a better/different cushion. My tailbone hates my current one - it worked great for my old chair but... lmao.)

We have a vague plan to ask a local-ish medical supplies store if they carry or can get this battery and if so, how much (aka will it be a better price than ordering it ourselves) but we'll still need to be able to *pay* for it.

So... if anyone is able to help out, that's great. (If any of y'all know someone who can absolutely spare a whole $500 at once, stick this in their face and be like "come on help them keep their independence" lolol.)

For real tho, passing this along to a wider circle is A++, the more eyes the better, and if that's all you can do: thank you!! I appreciate it! If you can manage $1, or $5, or $10, $25, whatever increment you can spare: thank you!! I appreciate it!

My cashapp is $Inoru
Spouse's venmo (because I don't have venmo; pls specify "for Inoru's chair"): @californiummm

Ask @camilla for PayPal/zelle info if cashapp or venmo don't work for you. (please also specify "for Inoru's chair")

This is what I really need a 500 donation for, I am so stressed because I am having difficulty finding one. Many places that were once affordable to as low as 200 have been taken up I am running out of time please consider (this is what I would use 500 on) #helpfolkslive #signalboost #lgbtq

URGENT MUTUAL AID NEEDED!

quick intro: @inoru_no_hoshi and I are two Deaf, disabled, Jewish/Jewish-ish, neurodivergent/autistic/ADHD and unemployed queers in southern California.

it's super expensive living here and we receive no social welfare whatsoever.

spouse does a job training program, I do community college, and none of those make money out of thin air.

I'm currently unemployable, no driver's license, too much disability, etc.

we get $125/month from the sale of my car, and everything else comes from the kindness of others!

WE NEED MONEY FOR:

- cat food and cat litter. our cat Zoey thanks you. but seriously, this is how we're able to buy her wet food and something better than the house store brand kibble that even most of the outdoor cats won't touch.

- necessary professional clothing. uncharted territory etc, and it's definitely taken a tone up from what we'd previously been getting away with.

- food at the end of the month when our food stamps has run out.

- bills! the bills don't stop no matter what I do and we currently have anywhere from $150 to $500 in bills per month.

everything helps, from the smallest of donations to shares to large donations and anything in between.

THANK YOU!

ask for PayPal or Zelle, they're doable but my PayPal has my deadname associated to it and I try not to have that just floating around the internet.

MUTUAL AID NEEDED! read the impossible and then get down to the bottom for the immediate needs.

anyone feel like buying me a house for my #Birthday? joking not joking #MutualAid #MutualAidRequest. this would solve our housing insecurity and put us a lot closer to my in-laws, it's adorable, and it even comes with already having a craft shed. unfortunately I have no idea how we'd manage to have $3k/month let alone the $17k that would be needed for a 3.5% down payment without just having a very generous benefactor buy it for us.

five or so years back I was looking unseriously at Washington and a little more seriously at some other places and Washington wasn't nearly as expensive as it is now. real estate prices up there have exploded. https://www.zillow.com/homedetails/610-Milroy-St-NW-Olympia-WA-98502/49422523_zpid/

and even otherwise, please consider supporting us. we have a general need for about $500/month and I haven't been aggressively fundraising recently, so we're nowhere near meeting that goal.

this goes to cover bills and supplies that food stamps don't cover, such as cat food, cat litter, band-aids, school supplies, and the occasional nice thing for each other because poverty shouldn't have to equal deprivation and poor people deserve things like nice chocolate sometimes.
