i need people do do me a favor and be absolutely normal about it

i have a completely normal coworker who does music and stuff and its good music and i want to send my army of followers to his video on yt and just +like it or something. something to boost him in the algorithm

the issue is no one can let him know this second life i live on the internet because if he finds out i have 25k followers on tumblr or 10k on twitter etc then the questions will flow and i will not be prepared for the conversation about werewolves that follows

Ok heres the video, just +like it and if you want to comment just say you're from reddit or facebook or somewhere

If someone DOES want to share it to reddit that'd be awesome and I'd love you but I dont have an active account there

i am not against clicking the button, but at the bottom of these posts about palestine, i am literally begging y'all to add links to places where people can actually donate to support palestinians. if you donate even $1 to any of these organizations, you will be doing more than you would if you clicked the button on arab.org every day for the rest of the year.

Disabled Venezuelan Trans Person of Color needs Immediate Help affording food, services and medical bills for their family

(I'm so fucking tired Boss)

Ren | 20 | He/They

Ngl it really suck that this has to be my first post back on tumblr after a long while gone. But I'm currently in extreme need of help and I don't know anywhere else where I could plead.

Extremely long story short: my family and I still live in Venezuela and we're in a critical economic condition; We own 2 months of rent basic services like water and electricity and If we don't play next week they'll be cutted completely, we're having issues getting food, hygiene products, my bipolar and anxiety medicine and the general basic market cest, and where 3 months behind the mensuality of my brother's psychiatric internation. Both me and my parents barely do the minimun wage and I don't know how much longer we can keep going without a change.

(Note: these are Bolivares, not USD, meaning that my actual account balance is around $0.012? Yeah shits fucked)

Because of this i'm currently accepting both donations and quick traditional art commissions since they're the most comfortable for me rn

Examples of my traditional art below:

Commission Prices and Details

Monochrome Lineart — $6 / 2 Ko-Fis
Flat Color/Simple shading — $9 / 3 Ko-Fis
Full color/Rendering — $12 / 4 Ko-Fis
Any kind of pose/body length
Other things like character desing complexity or Nsfw can be disscussed on DMs

Ppl (please ignore my deadname)

Here's my Ko-Fi for both easy Donations and Comm requests

[The platform covers all convertions and you don't need and account. You can pay directly from any USA bank account or P4y4l/Stripe]

Also Ik that crypto is ultra cringe and rightfully so. But since I live in a country with an USA blockade, that greatly affects things like Paypal fees, I'm putting addresses as alternative donation methods for those that wish so

Anything, even just sharing this post as much as possible helps. I'm so, so damn burned out. Thank you so much for your time guys.

When your entire check goes to bills and catching up on things you'd been putting off for financial reasons.

If anyone could throw me and my roommate like $50 to get by until my next check, that would be really amazing because we have $3, and no food for tomorrow, and my roommate has been out of one of his meds for a while. Additionally, I have to call the Dr tomorrow because I'm having seizures, which is new. I won't be able to afford the appointment I need (GP and neuro) because my next check is going alp to bills too. So it'll probably get put off for a while at least. If anyone wants to help with that, I know its going to be at least $600 total because my roommate has already been through these same appointments. If anyone wants proof, dm me. I do art and take commissions at my art blog @theartistrans

We've received $75 since this was posted, sorry for the late update, I was working. This is enough to get us by fo now, and I'm an putting back $25 for my appt costs. Anything else given will go to that, bc I have no chance of affording those appts this month, even though I expect they'll be able to get me in relatively soon.

We have gotten $5 since the last update. I finally got an estimate for my GP appt (booked for Tues. Next week) It's going to be $245, which is $45 more than I expected. I will now need $645 to pay for these appointments. I will happily offer commissions in exchange for help with this, dm me at @theartistrans

We have received $235 in total to go towards the total appointment costs of $645. Almost enough for the first appointment! Thank you!! All help is very appreciated, this is really the last thing I needed to get worse rn.

"what do eggs have to do with Jesus?"

Eggs are actually a really common piece of Christian symbolism for the Trinity. It's a shell, a white, and a yolk, but it's all one egg. Just like how God is made of the Father Son and Holy Spirit.

You know that image that's like, a youth pastor explaining the Trinity with a fidget spinner? It's like that. That was the metaphor every medieval monk used to explain the basics.

Also, like, the legend of Mary Magdalene and her egg trick. Also eggs were forbidden during lent and thus were a special treat for Easter.

This guy ➡️🥚⬅️ is so ingrained in Christian tradition.

According to some legends told in the Eastern Church, Mary Magdalene confronted Caesar about the injustice of Jesus' execution. Once she claimed that he had risen from the dead, Caesar laughed. To prove her point she grabbed an egg and it turned red. That is why Easter Eggs are traditionally red over every other color.

Here are some icons where she is holding the red egg.

Also, rabbits are associated with Easter because of their unusual ability to become pregnant while currently pregnant with a batch of kids. The second birth so soon after the first made it seem like a magical form of conception like the immaculate conception, so rabbit and Mary are interwoven. The tie between rabbits, eggs, and Easter was really solidified in the 18th century.
