This account I'm tooting from? Took it mostly private to talk about my own personal stuff...which can get heavy. But since I kept this acct, I couldn't just move all my 2.5K followers over to a new account. If you've ever liked my toots on ableism, accessibility, cycling, fruit, politics, history, language, etc. please follow me at the below account. #Introduction #BikeNite #Cycling #Disability #Ableism #Botany https://eldritch.cafe/@ml/117349567220674418

It is so sad to me that Being Heumman is going to have such a limited run in theaters because that was probably one of the best reasons I've wheeled into a theater period. Seeing so many incredible disabled actors on screen, seeing the story told so well, not skipping over how the Black Panthers were VITAL in getting 504 signed... Truly, just a remarkable movie. Please, find a way to watch Being Heumman when it inevitably hits streaming services. #Disability #Movies

Working Hard, Still Trapped in Old Debts I’m asking for a little help getting out from under debts that have followed me for years. I live and work in France. I’ve been working for a long time, doing my best to support myself and pay my living expenses. But two old debts from Latvia have now reached court enforcement, and together they amount to nearly €10,000. After paying for accommodation, transport to work, and everyday necessities, I can realistically put around €150 a month towards these debts. At that rate, clearing them could take more than five years, possibly longer with additional costs and interest. I’m not asking anyone to finance a lifestyle or replace my income. I’m working, and I intend to keep paying what I can. I’m asking for help reducing this financial burden so that my earnings can eventually go towards building a stable future instead of remaining trapped by the past. I also want you to know there’s a real person behind this appeal. I’m open to talking, answering questions, and explaining my situation honestly. If someone wants reassurance before helping, I can provide documentation of the debts and court enforcement, with sensitive personal information protected. I don’t have money or material rewards to offer in return. What I can offer is my time, sincere conversation, friendship, and gratitude. I would genuinely welcome the opportunity to connect with people, whether they can contribute financially or simply want to talk. I’m not looking for pity. I’m looking for a chance to finally move forward, and perhaps make a few genuine human connections along the way. My fundraising goal is €10,500. Contributions of any amount would help, and sharing my campaign would mean just as much if you cannot donate. My fundraising campaign: https://www.gofundme.com/f/im-trying-to-rebuild-my-life-but-i-cant-do-it-alone Thank you for reading, listening, and giving me a chance. @mutualaid @mutualaid@fedigroups.social @mutualaidspace@mutualaidspace.org @disability @disability@fedigroups.social @wrzky @wrzky@kolektiva.social #disability #DisabilityCrowdfund #disabilitymutualaid #EmergencyCrowdfund #fedihelp #fediverse #healthcare #mentalhealth #mutualaid #mutualaidrequest #mutualaidspace #politics #poverty #solidarity #internationalism

"The so-called ‘living wage’ needed to comfortably cover living expenses in the Greater Toronto Area has reached nearly $28 an hour, according to a new report." They mention minimum wage, but they don't mention #Disability gives about $800 for expenses, and $500 for rent. We need #UBI #Politics #CdnPoli

Just when you think Badenoch can’t stoop any lower…. Here she is with this wrong-headed nonsense. I used to get this a bit when I was able to run marathons with #MultipleSclerosis and I also got it from the DWP when I tried to claim the lowest level of PIP (which is supposed to assess you on your worst day. Instead, I got mocked for claiming when I admitted that I took exercise. Imagine!). Tell me that you don’t understand disability without telling me… etc. Why can’t you run the 100m in less than 10 seconds? Why can’t you write a bestseller? Why aren’t you over 2m tall? Why haven’t you lived beyond 100? Why aren’t you a billionaire? Sounds like laziness to me. Ugh. #FuckMS #Disability #UKPol

:boosts_ok_gay: (85/800) URGENT indigenous, disabled, trans mutual aid request for November $400 needed by 11/16, $800 by 11/30. Food, med insecurity, nothing in 3 DAYS, 7 DAYS left, please reboost, please HELP! I'm JJ. I am intersex, visibly disabled, queer, biracial, poor, neurodivergent, immunocompromised, and probably a few other things society frowns upon. My household/found family is living in the hostile US south on a single disability check that only just covers utilities. We have no food benefits, and my medicine and clinic visits are really expensive. We also don't have a water heater, which I would like to change eventually. (85/$400) by November 16 (0/$400) by November 30 (85/$800) total The most immediate way to help is Paypal: http://paypal.me/ramavabray And Patreon helps us continue to stream and make cool stuff like music and pixel art longterm. I'm currently updating our PNGTuber avatars: http://patreon.com/ifwhen Please give if you're able, and boost! We need your support and you're saving our lives. Thank you for reading, and I hope you have a good day/night/etc. @mutualaid@fedigroups.social@mutualaid@ovo.st #HelpPeopleLive #disability #CrowdFund #BegPost #MutualAid #MutualAidRequest #IndigenousMutualAid #TransMutualAid#TransCrowdFund #DisabilityCrowdfund #neuroDivergent #ActuallyADHD #LGBTQIA #poverty #SettlerSaturday #DisabilityMutualAid #TransCrowdfund#HelpFolksLive2026#DisabilityMutualAid #Queer#QueerMutualAid

Urgent tuition assistance needed — final-year university student in China

I’m a Bangladeshi Computer Science student completing my final year at Nanjing University of Posts and Telecommunications.

After losing my scholarship, I’ve been working to cover my living expenses, but I still owe ¥15,000 (approximately $2,100) in university tuition.

My residence permit expires on November 20, 2026. I’m trying to secure the tuition by November 18 so I can continue my education.

I’ve contacted several organizations but haven’t secured financial assistance. Any donation, however small, would help. I can provide redacted university documents to verify my situation.

Donate or share my fundraiser: https://whydonate.com/fundraising/help-me-finish-my-final-year-in-china

Thank you for reading and considering my request.

Help Me Afford Medication and Essential Living Costs ❤️ A little help could change my life. Hi, I’m Zita, 42, from Hungary. I live with severe rheumatoid arthritis, multiple spinal disc herniations, high blood pressure, and early-stage heart failure. My illnesses have left me with serious mobility limitations, and I’m unable to work. Unfortunately, my disability benefits aren’t enough to cover my essential living expenses and medication. I’ve started a $5,000 fundraiser to help me get through this difficult time. Even a small donation or a share would mean so much to me. ❤️ Thank you for reading my story. https://fnd.us/c2oeH9?ref=sh_06OUGbp6PHA06OUGbp6PHA#MutualAid #HelpSky #DisabilitySupport #Fundraising @mutualaid @mutualaid@fedigroups.social @mutualaidspace@mutualaidspace.org @disability @disability@fedigroups.social @wrzky @wrzky@kolektiva.social #disability #DisabilityCrowdfund #disabilitymutualaid #EmergencyCrowdfund #fedihelp #fediverse #healthcare #mentalhealth #mutualaid #mutualaidrequest #mutualaidspace #politics #poverty #solidarity #internationalism

#BandcampFriday is one day where Bandcamp waives its fees to artists. So it's the perfect time to buy music to support musicians. But in my case, I'm having to fundraise to pay down bills for my mobility aid (underseat steered recumbent e-trike) and physical therapy, and other medical bills that I currently cover out of pocket. So if you have wanted to help out, but don't like using Paypal (my only way of getting money otherwise), buying my music on Bandcamp with a tip is a great way to do it and buying today when fees to me are waived is an even better way! Hopefully you like the music, too! #Disability #MutualAid #Cycling #BikeTooter

Because of a change in policy on how it handles cover songs, I had to take my best-selling album down from Bandcamp. But I could still use help. So if you would like to help a low-income disabled woman pay down medical and assistive equipment bills, I'd love it if you'd buy my remaining music with a big tip on today #BandcampFriday. If you like the music, that's a bonus. But this is really an aid post. I'm very grateful to all who've helped in the past! https://meganlynch.bandcamp.com/ #Disability #Accessibility #MutualAid #Music
