Please do not send me asks for donations
Here's why:
- I have NO money to give you
- I'm not a popular enough blog that I will give you any reach
- I am a minor, and most of my followers are too
- It makes me feel extremely guilty
- Seeing pictures of injuries or hospitals etc are triggering for me (which are in most intro posts for this sort of thing)
- They are always worded in a way that makes me feel like I am a murderer if I don't donate
- It makes me feel uncomfortable
- I said I don't want them, and my boundaries should be respected
- I can't tell what is a bot and what isn't
- I get a lot of spam from this. It is disappointing to see 10 new asks in my inbox just to be the same ask for donations over and over
Please, just respect the fact that I have said this.
Edit: To all the people reblogging this, I'm sorry you have had to deal with this too. And yes, you can put this in your pinned post! Stay safe <3
The first two points apply so much to me. I am also pro palestine and I try to do what I could to help palestinians, but I have no time nor energy nor money to really help you. My parents won't allow me to donate to strangers either, as well as threatening to take my phone away if I kept mentioning about this stuff.
My heart goes out to every one of you goimg through unimaginable pain and I understand that you're doing everything you can to alleviate your suffering but I am unable to provide that for you. I'm so sorry.
