In Slab City there are no utilities, that means no electrical company, no gas company, and definitely no water company! Everyone has to provide their own for their own camp.
We have a 355 gallon tank that we let our neighbors fill jugs from. It costs $40 to hire someone to fill our tank with drinking water and it drains from use in little over a week.
Right now we're nearing the bottom of the tank and we need your help to fill it back up!
So it's popped up in my feed uncredited again.
I made this fun design and posted it on redbubble awhile back. and then people started reposting the picture, removing the water mark and not crediting me.
It looks pretty simple but I put work into this. On top of that I'm a Black disabled queer who has no money right now. If they had linked it back to my shop I wonder how many more sales I would have.
Be mindful about sharing what look like memes, this picture looks pretty clear at being a redbubble sticker design. Also I've seen "memes" where it was clear so much work was put into it reposted with 0 credit. It might seem not that harmful but for us creators, especially when we create to help supplement our income it heartbreaking.
Dear whoever stole my work originally, you put the effort to remove the watermark, why couldn't you put the link back to my store? It's also very "funny" stealing a design about paying trans people for their time/energy and actively stopping the trans creator from making money.
Please share to help spread the word

hey, we’re the ark system, a disabled, trans, genderqueer, OSDD system about to face homelessness.
we’re going to be evicted soon and plus our family is very very abusive, so we have to get out any way we can anyways. either way, soon we’ll be on the streets. we can’t work due to our disabilities and are waiting to be approved for SSI. we have no friends and no place we could possibly stay so without money, things are going to be rough.
PLEASE donate if you can. even $5 helps. and if you have a room somewhere, even for a night, let us know. we’re currently in the maryland area but planning to head to california when we’re officially kicked out.
our cashapp is $kmfdmlight
take this photo of a caracal, if it convinces you to donate any.
This act would make constitutional amendments to ensure that even sitting presidents are held liable for their actions. That NOBODY is above the law.
Their goal is 150k messages sent and at the time of writing this they're about 2.1k off from that goal!
ACLU gives you a prefilled message that you can edit to send to make the process easier, and will send it out for you.
This only takes a few minutes!
it's supposed to be under 3c/37f for the rest of the week and heating costs way too much. we have two payments going out tomorrow that'll take us -99.66 into our overdraft and it's so fucking cold my hands keep going stiff.
i know it's a rough time for everyone but if you have anything to spare so we can keep the electric on it'd be so appreciated.
My roommate and I need to get out of the moldy place we are living in. We intend to sue our landlord after but we need to get somewhere safe, and stay fed until we can do that. We have money for long term housing and dental surgery but can't take out of those things as it took us over a year to save anything for them.
I had made a post for this, but didn't make much progress, and a lot changed in two weeks including some unexpected urgent costs. Now our original goal is no longer accurate. This goal covers transportation needs, food, and finding somewhere else for a little bit. This is urgent bc I have reason to think our landlord may try and physically remove us if we cannot afford to leave.
I'll do art for anyone who gives $50+ just message me at my art blog @theartistrans

Hi, I'm a disabled intersex woman and I'm hoping that I can get your help. I'm trying to save money to see Dr Hans Goosen who is an expert surgeon with unique experience to help me correct some traumatic decisions that were made on my behalf a long time ago (traumatic for my body and my mental health), and also get a vulvoplasty from the same surgeon for my own gender affirmation.
I'm currently living on an Australian Disability Support Pension which is barely enough to survive on. Only a very small sum of what I need is covered under the Australian Medicare system(unfortunately there are no MBS item numbers for specifically what I need), so people like you are my only hope.
תודה רבה thankyou very much
($65/$30,000) thankyou so much
If you don’t live in Texas it’s probably easy to forget that our state department of family and protective services is still under a directive from our fucking evil state officials to treat trans affirming parents as abusers.
It’s so vile. I have friends who work for other state departments who just told me at someone’s bday last weekend that TDFPS is a dumpster fire of horrific proportions.
