Lolz Dandy’s A Ferris Wheel-

Can you imagine everything you know and love burning to the ground like this while the culprit taunts you and the world closes its eyes and remains silent?

Speak up about Sudan.

(UPDATE: As of October 1st, my washing machine is working, but the other stuff still applies)

Hey guys.

I really hate asking for help here, but this is important.

So. My washing machine broke, and I can't do laundry.

Laundromats cost money, and in terms of money, my family and I aren't doing so hot. Money is tight and going to laundromats is going to make it even tighter. And if I can't afford the laundromat, I'll have no clean clothes to wear.

My aunt likely isn't going to do anything to help, and she'll just blame my mom for it like she does with everything bad that happens.

Even if the washer was working fine, I'm on a time limit. My aunt wants to have a room for her granddaughter (my cousin's daughter), and that means one of us is going to have to leave or be forced to leave.

I've been doing this program (that I can't go in the specifics of because I don't want to doxx myself) that will help me get a job in the future, but it's at least 10 sessions, Monday to Friday, and I'm only on session 3.

And even then it's gonna take a bit for me to actually get a job.

I want to get out of my house and move somewhere that isn't this.

The house hasn't been tended to by my aunt, and she refuses to do anything about it.

My mom is disabled and can't fix it. Even if she was capable, my aunt should have to be the one to help the house not turn to shit, because my aunt owns the house.

Living here has been an absolute nightmare. For 4 years now, I have had to endure my sibling falling through the floor and getting their leg stuck, me falling down the stairs into literal sewage, using entire bins to collect rainwater from the roof, one of the cats getting an infection from his wart (that had been getting worse each day and she did NOTHING), dealing with fruit flies and roaches multiple times, stepping in cat shit regularly, and having to hear the dogs whine and bark because one has their fur falling out and has a rash because he's allergic to the dog food he eats and the other has severe hip problems due to being in cages 24/7.

The only reason why my family is even here in the first place is due to us not being able to afford living where we lived before, and my aunt took us in.

I've tried to make things work, to find the positive side of things, but living here has taken a toll on my health.

The only source of income my family has at the moment is child support and food stamps.

I almost never ask for help, especially not online, but my family could really use the money.

I do commissions, and my cash app is $AriAnimates79.

If you want to commission me or even donate, it's be much appreciated.

I have a bigger audience here on this blog, although I'll be reblogging it to my others as well.

Anything helps, even reblogging.

Thanks in advance.

my friend siraj abudayeh (vetted on line 219), who i've posted about frequently, has been fundraising for his family's daily survival since june of this year. read more about him here, here, and here. follow him here: @siraj2024. he is a journalist who writes frequent updates about the situation in gaza, and it is always better to get the story from the source than filtered through a western lens.

as of about a week ago, he had raised over $90,000 CAD / $64,000 USD. he had withdrawn a portion of it to pay for various daily needs, medical care, and rent.

his fundraiser had been under investigation for a few weeks and the organizer, his cousin, even sent all of their government IDs to verify that they are real people.

despite this, gofundme deleted his fundraiser a week ago. he lost over $38,000 CAD ($27,000 USD). that is a monumental loss that would devastate anyone. but in gaza, it is the loss of a lifeline.

gofundme has a pattern of baselessly investigating and terminating fundraisers benefiting palestinians, often waiting until the campaign has reached the end of its goal to terminate it and refund all donors, leaving the refugees in the dust.

in the hopes of continuing to keep his family alive while unchecked capitalism and gang violence in gaza are on the rise, and in the midst of constant bombardment, displacement, and death, siraj has opened another gofundme. this fundraiser is in his sister's name, and is being organized by a trusted friend of his who lives abroad. we hope it will not be met with the same fate as the old one.

if you donated to siraj's old gofundme, please request a refund and re-send the donation to the new link here

Donate to Help Fatima and her family survive through the genocide, organized by Osama Radwan

Hi, my name is Osama Radwan and I’m raising these funds for Fa… Osama Radwan needs your support for Help Fatima and her family survive th

thank you

“I dream of becoming a father… but war and circumstances deprive me.”

I, a resident of Gaza, carry a simple dream in my heart: to be a father, to hear a child call me “Papa.” But this dream is getting further away every day.

After years of trying, doctors discovered that I needed a vital operation to help me have children. But the situation in Gaza is now tragic. Hospitals are exhausted, medicine is scarce, and opportunities are slipping away before our eyes due to the war and the blockade.

What's even more difficult is that I have to care for my parents. My father has a heart condition, and my mother has diabetes, and they both require constant care and expensive treatment. We have no source of income, and no one to support us. I am now caught between the dream of fatherhood, the duty of caring for my parents, and the conditions of war that crush us every day.

I am writing to you with a heart full of hope that you will help us. We urgently need your support to perform the operation and to provide the necessary medication and care for all of us.

Every donation from you, no matter how small, is a ray of light in this darkness.

PALESTINIAN LITERATURE READING LIST

PALESTINIAN BUSINESSES

As my sibling explained on a different post, we are struggling health wise due to our PCOS acting out, afflicting us with insomnia and a lot of pain, especially on our chest and legs as well anxiety crisis. We decided to to go see a gyne but the one we trust and know us the longest and more likely to help us out (he was the one who diagnosed us) is very expensive and we are no longer in our mother's healthcare plan due to her retiring a few years ago.

Clinics usually close at this time of year and only return to normal activities in January, and on top of having the monthly bills to get to it there will be exams and we will probably be put on birth control; it will wring us dry of our savings.

So for a limited time, until we solve everything I am offering a discount of -10 USD on all my commission services, with the exception of Busts, Chibis and the Blorbitos ! Please check the prices below:

🎨 Take a look on this tag to see my art if you're a first time commissioner! 🎨

Commissions for Palestine!

DON'T SCROLL!!!

I have decided to start taking commissions for Palestine!

For payment, donate to the PCRF, UNICEF, or UNRWA.

Skeletons count as humanoids, by the way!

Examples of my work:

DM me for more information!

Area zero crew as rip-off Rudolphs!!

Since most of my stories are starting to get reworked have some Pokémon sillies as reindeer

Individual/design things

Wolf is an OC I made for my violet universe (which is kind of the merged into Scarlet universe), she pretty much didn’t change reindeer form.

Nemona design is simple yet I still really love it! I think I did well on the colors + incorporated her scar in there.

Honestly, my favorite thing about pennies design is her golden antlers! The antlers are docked/short because the bullies in this universe proceeded to break them so badly that they had to be removed.

Arven is the biggest out of all of them because he’s a moose/reindeer hybrid (which explain why his antlers are like that).

Here’s the speed paint as well!:
