My partner and I both have a very hard time asking for help but we are in a situation now where we cannot go without it and we don’t have family we can rely on or turn to for help.
We are currently in danger of not being able to afford our food and our home.
About a year ago my partner sprained their ankle on the job and was not reimbursed for missed hours. They are still paying off the medical bills as am I. Because of this, my sweetie and I had to move in with some dear friends into, well- -basically an old college party house for the cheap. I love our roommates but our paychecks don’t align and the heat is currently shut off and it’s starting to get cold.
I was recently let go from a steady (read: insurance included)- but god awful- job for bringing up the need for diversity training in the workplace as well as equal treatment. They gathered up other reasons so they didn’t have to say this was the actual reason.
We are both freelance artists and between our art and side gigs the money doesn’t always add up- even though we each have more than three jobs. It’s very difficult to find jobs that are fair to non binary queers (my partner and I) and to poc (myself) where we live. The town is so focused on who you knooow. So much so that I recently had to start a group for queer and/or trans people of colour in town to build a community.
We finally found a new place to rent together that is reasonable for us and our two cute kitties. They raised the rent from what they originally quoted us after we applied and then neglected to mention a $500 pet fee until after receiving our deposit and days before our move. In the area we live, there is no way to find a less expensive place because of severe gentrification across the city and we have already given notice that we are moving out.
To add to the worries, my car has stopped working properly and it isn’t in drivable condition. So not only are we down to one car (whilst we each have three separate jobs) but we have to find a way to replace the other car before winter.
We have very little time to work this all out and even less due to constant working and awful doubles.
Please help us and our kitties stay afloat through this transition. Even $10 helps sooo much. My talented partner has offered to draw a rendering of your profile picture or other portraits if you donate $15 or more. Send it through Venmo and then send me a message that reads something like, “Draw me like one of your French girls”. With the name you use on Venmo.
We appreciate your support and love so much.
Queerly Yours,
B+B 💚

A 22 year old Iranian protestor is at risk of being sentenced to death. Please share.
22-year old Mohammad Qobadlu has been sentenced to death at his very first trial session, to which the court denied entry to his lawyers, and is imminent danger of execution, according to a video message released by his mother. HRANA reports Qobadlu was tried on Oct. 29 at the Public & Revolutionary Court of Tehran under Judge Salavati on charge of “corruption on earth.” Prosecutors allege he drove a vehicle into motorcycle-mounted law enforcement agents, killing one. Besides the grave due process violations mentioned by Qobadlu’s mother, lawyer Amir Raisian has raised violations and inconsistencies in the case: - No images exist depicting the incident, the collision, or the hospitalization of medical examination of the agents involved -Preliminary reporting did not mention head wounds to officers involved in the collision, but the deceased officer died of a strike to the brain and skull fracture. The extent to which hospital treatment may have contributed to the cranial injury is not mentioned. -The criminal complaint gives the cause of the officer’s death as a car collision, but lawyer Raisian’s sources indicate only a skull fracture - no bodily injuries - was detected. Special force officers typically wear helmets, moreover. -The forensic medical authority ascertained Qobadlu’s mental fitness / sanity only on the basis of his own statements, neglecting letters from prison authorities stating he was mentally “precarious.” -Authorities present at the mourning service for the deceased officer made comments that were “not consistent with the car collision death narrative” said lawyer Raisian.
🚨 Urgent Appeal: Do Not Scroll Past This! 🚨
🚨 This GoFundMe is VETTED here
Dear Tumblr Friends,
I’m begging you—please, do not scroll past this post. Mohammed, his family, and his young niece are in a desperate situation, and they need our help urgently.
The airstrike that shattered their lives has claimed the lives of everyone in his niece's family—leaving her completely alone. They have lost everything: their loved ones, their home, and their sense of security. 😢💔
Now, they are living in a tent, struggling daily with no fresh water and barely any food. To make matters worse, Mohammed’s brother is still missing. Their situation is critical and time is running out. 🚨
Mohammed is trying to escape to safety in Egypt, but the cost is staggering: $5,000 per person. Without these funds, their chance to flee their nightmare is slipping away. 😔💔
Here’s how you can make a REAL difference:

Look to the first reblog for links and more sources
so can we start hunting down white liberals now or what
Hey friends, I know this is not in the theme of my blog, but I really need help. My Pakistani girlfriends father got killed by mafia IN FRONT OF HER because he tried to take back the land they took from him. My girlfriend was already very depressed before because her household is abusive, she was raped which she couldnt get help for and her country is awful and she endured a lot of suffering due to that (she was literally growing up with bombs falling on schools for example), but this really took it to the next level and it worries me and breaks my heart so much. My girlfriend is crushed, not just because of the trauma of having a family member killed in front of her, but because her father was supposed to sell the land so my girlfriend could fly to US for undergraduate studies. She was actually supposed to come last september but it got deferred due to corona, which felt like a good chance for her father to have extra time to get back the land and sell it. This was her whole future. She got a full ride scholarship in the same state Im in and she was SO happy we will finally be able to meet and love each other in real life and escape the poverty and horrible environment of her country. We were both hoping this would be her chance to start over and get the help she needs for depression and trauma she went through (theres much more to the story but I wont be revealing it for her privacy and safety). But with her fathers death her and her mother lost ALL of their property and money and now rely on her aunts husband for all income (they escaped to another city to her aunts where theyre safe for now). If she doesnt leave for university before september, shell probably be forced to marry a man (were lesbians), be raped by him so she could bear kids for him and slave away her life if she even lives through it because shes suicidal. Its absolutely horrible and traumatizing to live there, especially as a woman and especially if youre lgbt+. I cant stress enough how scared I am for her and what could be her life. Shes been there for me through thick and thin and was the reason I myself have gotten out of depression after years of having it. I cant bear the thought of losing her. Shes the most important person to me and the reason Im alive today. I love her like Ive never loved anyone and I need her to get safe and recover and get the education she worked so hard for 😟
(also if you could ask people with a lot of followers to reblog that would help so much!)
Were hoping to get enough money for her flight and if that happens soon enough, food, phone memory card and other things shed need before she moves into the dorms in september (shes hoping to get a campus job afterwards). Ill have her stay with me until then, but Im poor and cant afford to cover her expenses. Also doctors visit because shes been raped before and since then has had pain and uncontrollable bladder issues which she should get checked and treated. Therapy too if possible, until she starts university (because shell be able to get university counseling once she starts), due to how dire her state is and how much shes been through. But its least important between other things. Im sorry for asking this of you. But thank you from the bottom of my heart if you decide to reblog, donate or help in any way. And if you know who Im talking about, please dont say anything - you never know who could see it and how it could put her in danger.
SPREAD THE WORD, TUMBLR! The Russian lgbtqa+ activist Yelena Grigoryeva was killed. She was a huge human rights proponent and lgbtqa+ activist, as well as an open bisexual. Don't let this murder go unnoticed by the worldwide lgbtqa+ community!!!
Okay look, I understand that really important things are happening in the world at the moment, the queens’s funeral, Trump getting sued, Adam Levine cheating on his wife… but people in Iran are being murdered. This began by the cruel murder of a 22 year old girl, Mahsa Amini, last week by the police because she wasn’t wearing appropriate hijab. This has been going on in Iran for decades, women have been going through this.
Some people will want to jot this down as islamphobia, but that is nothing even close to reality. If women are burning their headscarves now, it’s not out of the hatred of Islam, it’s an act of protest to the loss of religious freedom. It’s not just that, if someone is born from muslim parents in Iran they are automatically assumed to be a muslim and they have no right to changing their religion without serious persecution. The Islamic Republic has given an evil face to Islam. The poeple of Iran don’t hate Islam. We hate governments who will force religion on women. Historically this has been a recurring event. Before the revolution in the ‘30s Reza Shah forced women to discard their hijab and now for decades the opposite is happening. All the people of Iran have ever asked for is freedom and all they’ve got in return has been cruelty, violence and death.
The cruelty doesn’t end there. Few months ago the southern and western parts of Iran had no water, they also did peaceful protests against that situation and they too were awarded with fire arms and violence. All for asking for the most basic need a person has. A need for water. Iran may not have a lot of water but there is enough for this not to happen. This is evident by the fact that the government is now using that said water against the protesters by blasting them with it.
For the past week the people of Iran of all races and ages and religions are fighting against the regime. The government has been imprisoning defenseless people. They are killing people to show the world they didn’t kill Mahsa Amini. They are using military grade equipment. In some cities they are using tanks, they are using guns and tear gas and batons. They may be using acid in some areas. They are using ambulances to arrest protesters and bring soldiers into crowds. They are doing this so that if the protesters attack these ambulances to free innocent people, they can have proof of people destroying public property. The only weapon people have against this immense level of violence is their bare hands and their courage.
Tumblr has a community of people who pride themselves on social justice and wanting to help people’s voices be heard. What is happening in Iran is no less than what has happened in other countries during the past few years. Iranians are so alone, they have no help. No country is out there helping the people of Iran. At least their voices can be heard. At least people should be aware of what is happening. Tens of people have been killed and hundreds injured just for protesting police brutality, the irony is evident.
Right as all these things are happening, the president of Iran another pillar in this evil government is in the US, talking about the freedom of Iranians and their fortunate lives.
About five years ago after a protest in Tehran; Telegram and Instagram, platforms that were widely used by Iranian were blocked by the government. They were added to the list of social media platforms that were blocked then, like Twitter and Facebook and Tumblr. After a while Instagram was unblocked but Telegram has been blocked since. All of this is just so people from the outside of Iran don’t find out about what is really happening in Iran so the government can lie on their behalf. Like they are doing right now, lying about how Iranian women wear hijab out of sheer will while the reality is that they are dying to gain freedom. About 4 years ago, the internet was completely shut off for about a month. This was following a protest regarding the extremely high price of gas in a country that has all the gas to last a hundred lifetimes. When the internet was shut down people didn’t know for how long. We were kept in the dark and the government was reining while ensuing terror in people with the threat of more restrictions. Just imagine having no internet, it was an insane time. They are restricting the internet again. Last night they shut off the internet partly and they may do it again indefinitely and the voices of the people may not reach anyone again. There isn’t much time.
Then they shot two rockets at a Ukrainian plane that had lifted from Iranian grounds. There were Irannian students on the plane, 176 people who all died for no reason. The government of the Islamic Republic killed all those people for nothing. And all the world did was light a few candles. They need to be held responsible for all these lives they are taking away. All these young people they are killing.
I know that this is long. I know that this is inconvenient. It’s upsetting and I get that but help is truely needed. People can’t keep dying for nothing. The government can’t keep getting away with everything. They have no one to answer to and they can do anything. They kill and torture and imprison. I am just asking people to educate themselves and maybe help spread the word. Go on Twitter and watch the videos if you can. I won’t put them on here because it may be too upsetting. There is blood, there is gunshot wounds, there is violence and there is terror.
