daily mutual aid requests posting

like a lot of folks, i'm receiving so many mutual aid requests in my messages and asks, and i've been struggling to figure out the most effective way to share them. after trying a couple different things, i've settled on highlighting four particular campaigns every day under the tag #daily mutual aid requests.

please note that while the majority of these are from folks in palestine trying to survive the horrific genocide, i will also be highlighting other mutual aid requests that come my way because there are folks all over the world who need mutual aid for various reasons.

all the campaigns i share will be added to this spreadsheet along with the date i have them scheduled to share.

please let me know if you have questions or concerns! i don’t know what the right/most effective way to do this is, so i welcome feedback.

more details below the cut:

HA HA SO i really fucking hoped i wouldn’t have to do this but the day that i got my job, my partner was unjustly fired from her job. so now instead having two incomes, we’re left with not enough, and get slightly more behind every month trying to play catch up. im so sorry, but we’re asking for your help again.

my partner doesn’t drive and it is taking literally every available spoon to work full time again so we just don’t have the capacity to do second jobs (i’ve barely had time to use tumblr 😭). if you can help us from going into the red, we should be able to keep up with everything going forward, even with only one income.

hoping to raise $300, to cover a couple of bills without dipping into rent savings, and keep us (and our cat!) fed. please please consider helping us. we just need to get through the next couple of months.

no donations today!!!! please consider sharing this, we would like to clear this as quickly as we can!!

rambling again abt sensationalization of cults because this comes up whenever i discuss the fact that I was raised in one, but... like many other forms of abuse, i think there ends up being a popularly conveyed idea of an "outside world" where there's going to be unambiguous freedom. and don't get me wrong, being outside a cult or any other abusive environment is way better than being inside one, but you get outside and if you have eyes you notice the ways that society is abusive and coercive. you notice the ways your personhood gets curtailed by things by school & work & government. the idea of the cult being a sensational, unique outlier is at best a comforting lie told by people who don't want to notice parallels, and at worst, I can't help but see it as an intentional scapegoating of cults and of abusers to distance broader society from being implicated in having caused similar harm. don't fall for it. a cult is an intensifier of patterns that already exist. abuse is an intensifier of patterns that already exist. it is absolutely not unique lol!

visibility of an oppressed group is not inherently a “privilege.” visibility can mean hypersexualization, objectification, commodification, stereotyping, abuse, violence. a group being more “visible” does not mean that it has an advantage or any kind of oppressive power whatsoever over a less visible or “invisible” group. using statistics of representation in media as evidence of relative privilege and disprivilege within marginalized groups is pointless and reductive.

and thank you to the Black women theorists whose work on hypervisibility has helped me to reach this understanding
