Seeking help urgently- just trying to live.

(This is an updated version of my original post- I've made CashApp and PayPal accounts on the advice of someone who saw the post and added them as links.)

Hey there, it's Moxie- trans woman, lesbian, and your favorite mutual's fourth favorite mutual. I recently lost my job and have been seeking employment ever since. In the intervening weeks, I've burned through my savings paying for necessities like food, have gone completely off of HRT due to losing my insurance, and my phone bill recently chewed through over half of what I had left.

These are hard posts to make because I'm a stubborn old goat and feel like I'm creating a terrible burden just by asking. But I can't ignore the financial strain any longer, and I need to support my household and uphold my financial responsibilities. That's a pretty serious challenge with no income.

While I continue to file applications and distribute my resume, I need to be able to help with utilities and if possible cover my half of the house. We live in Kansas now, so thankfully the charges aren't as extravagant as they might've been if we still lived in Washington, but they're still impossible to pay with pocket change.

If you're able and it wouldn't be too much trouble for you, I'd be grateful for any help I can get.

https://account.venmo.com/u/robotmoxie https://www.paypal.com/paypalme/moxiegarner https://cash.app/$robotmoxie I'm setting a goal of $500, which accounts for half of utilities and half of the payment on the house for this month. I'll update regularly.

$75/$500

Thank you to those who have already reached out, your help means the world to me.

I have some news for members of the united states armed forces who feel like they are pawns in a political game and their assignments being unnecessary.

Hey guys something happened to me that has left me partially disabled for the time being. I dont have access to health care right now to be able to take care of it properly, but being able to take care of basic necessities would help me take the time to figure that out. Its difficult for me to ask, but a necessary step in order for me to survive and take care of my family. I am skipping meals to afford bills right now so Anything helps 💜

oh also? An absolutely freaky thing I'm seeing yt leftists do?

STOP TRYING TO TRACK DOWN PROTESTORS THAT DO 'BADASS STUFF'. STOP POSTING ABOUT IT ONLINE.

PEOPLE FUCKING DIE.

AND IT'S USUALLY SOMEONE MELANATED.

THE GOVERNMENT IS WATCHING YOU FUCKING DUMBASS.

y'all are so stuck on egoistic heroism that every time someone does something 'sick' at a protest you wanna turn them in to the next celebrity to have a parasocial relationship with and then they go missing.

Tf is wrong w y'all.

It seems the Israeli army was deeply inspired by Squid Game — but instead of watching it, they decided to recreate it in real life.

In Gaza, an ordinary civilian stepping out to get humanitarian aid becomes a target.

Those heading to food distribution points often return in body bags.

Same concept:

People dying for a glimpse of hope and survival.

But the difference is — Squid Game was fiction.

In Gaza, the blood is real. The death isn't scripted.

Yesterday morning, my husband and one of our neighbors went to get a bag of flour. They found thousands of people there , then it started . The Israeli army started to shoot them randomly while they were trying to escape. Our neighbor was hurt and now he is in the hospital,we don't know what is going to happen with him 😞

What’s happening in Gaza isn’t just war… it’s a horrifying real-life Squid Game — produced in silence by a watching world

I don't want to lose my husband in one of these Humanitarian aid distribution points so please help us to get out of Gaza as soon as possible

I know now is not a good time to post this cuz it won't reach many people but now I was extremely shocked when I realized how SCARY the thing that happened to Dodo was that part of her brain came out of her skull after her house was bombed and not only that but the biggest shock is that they announced her death and in the last moments of saying goodbye to her they heard the sound of her heartbeats yes I swear I am not lying she is my cousin and Al Jazeera documented the massacre that happened to her family her brother and sister died and all of her family members were injured...

Now I want all of you to help me by providing $4000 urgently for her to have a manufactured skull installed or by paypal

Her campaign was verified in sequence from my campaign because she is my cousin

🚨EXTREMELY URGENT🚨

A heavy IOF assault is under way in Jabaliya. The bombing and shelling are constant and all around them. The explosions are so close that the shockwaves are interfering with Nour’s heartbeat! The family is afraid that even if the bombs don’t kill them, the panic and shockwaves will stop 15-y/o Nour’s weakened heart!

They need to get out of this area ASAP!! They need $2000 usd (about $2,791 cad) to evacuate and pay rent for a safer space.

Current: $60,248 out of $63,039 cad

Need to raise: $2,791 cad (about $2000 usd)

ahmed's (@ahmedaldani333) asked me to share his campaign, so as a reminder: ahmed is a teenager trying to help support his family in gaza as they face displacement, hunger, and violence, and could use the help. as i'm sure you've heard, prices of basic necessities like flour are extremely high right now, and he and his family need help to afford food to eat.

ahmed's fundraiser is verified by @gazavetters, and is #198 on their spreadsheet.

his campaign hasn't gotten a lot of attention, so i'd appreciate if you could donate, or if you're unable to, please reblog the post. thank you!

here's the link one more time:

i say this in all seriousness, a great way to resist the broad cultural shift of devaluing curiosity and critical thinking is to play my favorite game, Hey What Is That Thing

you play it while walking around with friends and if you see something and don't know what it is or wonder why its there, you stop and point and say Hey What Is That Thing. and everyone speculates about it. googling it is allowed but preferably after spending several minutes guessing or asking a passerby about it

weird structures, ambiguous signs, unfamiliar car modifications, anything that you can't immediately understand its function. eight times out of ten, someone in the group actually knows, and now you know!

a few examples from me and my friends the past few weeks: "why is there a piece of plywood sticking out of that pond in a way that looks intentional?" (its a ramp so squirrels that fall in to the pond can climb out) • "my boss keeps insisting i take a vacation of nine days or more, thats so specific" (you work at a bank, banks make employees take vacation in long chunks so if youre stealing or committing fraud, itll be more obvious) • "why does this brick wall have random wooden blocks in it" (theres actually several reasons why this could be but we asked and it was so you could nail stuff to the wall) • "most of these old factories we drive past have tinted windows, was that just for style?" (fun fact the factory owners realized that blue light keeps people awake, much like screen light does now, so they tinted the windows blue to keep workers alert and make them work longer hours)

been playing this game for a long time and ive learned (and taught) a fuckton about zoning laws, local history, utilities (did you know you can just go to your local water treatment plant and ask for a tour and if they have a spare intern theyll just give you a tour!!!) and a whole lot of fun trivia. and now suddenly you're paying more attention when youre walking around, thinking about the reasons behind every design choice in the place you live that used to just be background noise. and it fuckin rules.

Happy Pride!

Help a Queer+Trans Black Disabled Couple Survive:

my wife and i are two disabled Black trans folks living in Texas, and are unable to consistently find or maintain gainful employment due to both our disabilities and being visibly queer and trans. we have a litany of bills and other expenses we can't afford, a registry of things we need to buy/replace, and no way to take care of any of it without mutual aid+community support. any support folks can provide (either towards my three links, my wife's links, or our shared kofi / patreon ) seriously go a long way towards keeping us housed, fed, and able to stay alive. Thanks so much in advance for reblogging (DO NOT TAG THIS POST PLEASE IM BEGGING PLEASE DONT TAG THIS POST YOU ARE NOT HELPING THE POST SPREAD EVEN A LITTLE I PROMISE.)

more details on what we are asking for money for under the cut 💚

6/1

$0/$60 needed by June 30th

$0/$60 needed by june 15th

after paying off all the bills that come out the very first of the month, im back at zero for replacing my phone, which i have to do soon. additionally, my wife and i's share of the phone bill on our new plan is due around the 15th, and while the friend we share a phone plan with doesnt mind if we are a bit late paying, ne works constantly and have nir own expenses, so it would be really shitty of me to expect nem to eat the entire cost of our share to keep service on bc we had to pay nem late. i highly doubt folks will really contribute, as making a smaller short term goal usually makes people feel done with helping and move on, but maybe ppl will feel the pride spirit and decide to put their dollars towards tangibly helping real queer people instead of another nonprofit or god forbid Tumblr or AO3. anyways, thanks again if u read this far for rbing, donating, or whatever u can do to support my little family 🫂💚

Help a single mother of two small children in north Gaza

Maha and her two children Joan (7) and Khalil (5) are displaced in north Gaza. They are still in besieged Beit Lahiya, and need funds for transportation out of the area ($500 usd) and rent for shelter (about $2,000 usd). They also need to purchase Joan's medication, which is $500 usd, and $200 usd to buy a bag of flour that is not soiled by insects and/or mold. Anything you can give, no matter how small it seems, will help this young family survive genocide.

@mahafamily1 @ahmed-family-1

Please note the conversion rate: $1 usd = €0.89 EUR (so $10 usd would be €8.9 EUR, $20 usd would be €17.73 EUR, etc)

samah @ammar-family24 has been working hard to pay off all the money needed for a medical tent for ammar

this is a repost of my previous post because having photos of ammar made tumblr immediately flag it as mature content

it costs $5200 total - we were able to pay off the initial $3000 deposit, but not the $2200 afterwards

she was able to negotiate with the merchant into paying in installments - however, instead of $500 installments, he has demanded $800 installments, as well as we pay him the first installment immediately, which we have managed to do with help from a generous friend

with commission fees now 25%, this means we need $1000 every week 3 times - this is $1050 after ko-fi's fees as well

then we will need one last installment of $200 turned $500, which with commission fees will be $670 and then with ko-fi's fee of $34 will be $704

we tried to negotiate the installments to be every week, but he has demanded we pay him every five days

the doctor had advised that ammar needs special care even outside of the hospital to make sure he is in stable condition ammar has severely deteriorated from his heart condition not being seen to as well as conditions in gaza

this is why he also badly needs a medical tent, which will shelter him from the outside as it has a floor of its own and sturdier walls than most tents

samah’s original campaign and account are shared by 90-ghost, but it was shut down as her organiser’s bank account was deactivated

proof samah asked me to use my paypal / ko-fi account here

$15 / $1050

we also still need ammar's weekly medication, which helps to keep his condition stable and is required to maintain his health. even one day delay makes him incredibly ill

this costs $500, but unfortunately there are the 25% fees - in addition, the pharmacist has now requested she pay half her money in physical cash, so now 35% fees will need to be additionally added on to half of this amount

half of $500 is $250 - 35% fees makes it $588. 25% fees then make it $783. with ko-fi's 5% fees, this means we need to raise $822 for it

proof samah has agreed with using my friend's ko-fi here

$0 / $822
