My friend Abdul is an African LGBTQ+ refugee who needs more help than I can give him to survive at his camp.
$6,000 seems like a lot, and it is, but he would really be grateful for anything. If you have $1 to spare he would absolutely appreciate that. this is not a circumstance where not reaching the goal means it was pointless. I don't get paid much because I'm a full time student but he always appreciates and needs what I can give him.
If you can't use GoFundMe for any reason I also take donations through these other money transfer services.

I'll try to update this post with how much I've raised through these apps at the end of every day. I'll also try to post updates I get from him tagged as #Abdulfund on this blog, if he has anything he wants to say. Thank you.

I relate to this so much, especially the part about caring(?) about your friends, but not necessarily wanting(?) friendship (I’m not sure if I’m wording this right)
Being aplspec makes discussions about friendships in aro spaces so awkward like. Yeah I agree friendship should be given more respect and amatonormativity should be dismantled. Yes I care very deeply for my friend(s). No I can't relate to your experiences with friendship or wanting friends. You've lost me. Why are you talking about friendship as if everyone has and/or wants it. Hey. Whatever happened to allowing people to decide what relationships they want and what those relationships entail for themselves.
It's exhausting because aro spaces are often one of the only spaces that will respect my devotion and care (sometimes I even call it love, depending on how I'm feeling that day) for my friend, but friendship is also just treated like romance is everywhere else and no one even seems to notice. You're not gonna defeat amatonormativity with the power of platonormativity. Have you considered readjusting your understanding of relationship anarchy and questioning your own biases and assumptions about platonic relationships? I'm drowning in "use friendship as a substitute for romance" posts over here
(and it's like. I don't want to criticize people's love for their friends or anything like that. I'm just so tired of all the assumptions of having and wanting friends. They're everywhere in here and make me feel so estranged from my own community)
(this turned into a bit of a vent but it's okay to rb and add on)
I have a Wattpad account that I post my writing on and I want to know if I should also make an ao3 account and post my work on there as well
Deciding to reblog with my list
Soft fluffy textures
Some types music or really just music in general
Rocking
Running my hands through warm water
There’s probably more but these are all I can think of
alright figured out another one:
running my thumb through the pages of a book (especially when the pages are considered more soft in texture)
What are your sensory sparks? ✨
REAL
Like why can’t I be a being of mist or something???☹️☹️☹️
Nonbinary dysphoria is wack bc sometimes I look in the mirror and I’m like oh no I look too masculine and too feminine at the same time.
Sometimes you just want to look like a blob.

🤸 Welcome to marine facts with Bagel: part 9
When a bloom of jellyfish get close to the surface, like really close, that's usually a sign of something wrong (usually things like over heating) (idk how to word it) within the waters they inhabite (if that makes sense)
