Many have asked and now you can donate directly, and support the ongoing costs and maintenance for https://nsfw.lgbt!

In fact, we pledge and promise to pay-it-forward and donate 20% of
your contributions upstream to the #Sharkey project to help fund and support their development costs since without Sharkey, there would be no #NSFWlgbt!

If you care about #Ukraine and their troops who are repelling Russian attacks every hour of the day, consider supporting not only in words, but also by #donating a bit of money. It does matter. #LibertyUkraine is an organization run by #US -based Ukrainians who have been doing good work tirelessly for 3 years now.

It feels so good to get rid of stuff...and by “get rid of” I mean directly rehoming things you no longer need or want to people in your community, especially when those items would not be accepted at the “traditional” places like Goodwill-type places. (And yes, I already knew it felt good, and yet I’m always surprised that it does.)

OK, I'm #newHere / #neuHier at mastodon.de but never mind - I've been around the Fediverse for a long time… Actually, I just moved from @Herr_Irrtum@mstdn.social to this cozy place here ;)

Typically I'll write in German language at this account – this post being an exception.

Because I want to thank @stux from mstdn.social for a rock solid experience over there for 4 years which isn't something to be taken as granted at all, considering the massive amount of users there are. Thank you mate for making it possible, and still having an ear for your users.
The think that pulled my leg and broke my neck at mstdn.social was the 500 char limit (that wasn't always the case but unfortunately it is now); so I had to move sooner or later (just look at this post to understand ;) ).

I could have moved to a lot of other instances which allow more than 500 chars per post – but mind you – I've asked some admins how SAFE that enhanced char limit is; And the most original answer came from @MastodonDE telling me it is like **TOTALLY** safe, because else @ErikUden wouldn't be able to use it.;)
Well – *that* was totally convincing!
And the fact that Erik is the chief in charge here and that I am somewhat became a fan of him and his very thoughtful posts of course played into my very complicated and over engineered "account moving" decision making process.
And thanks btw. to @ErikUden for even personally welcoming me, not just by a cold automatic mail but in a quite nice and individual way. Appreciate it!!

About me – just check my profile.

Enough blubbering now... just one more thing:

If you are NOT #Armutsbetroffen / #povertyAffected (and unfortunately there are a lot of people living in such a condition) – no matter at which instance you are on – consider #donating a small amount monthly to your instance. Almost most Fediverse instances are run by volunteers and maintaining a server means costs (for server rent quite directly, and indirectly for the hours spent by doing moderation, updates, database health maintenance, storage monitoring and what not).

Attention, #charities:

If you make #unsolicited #robot phone calls to me in an attempt to get me to #donate to your organization, then no matter how much I am positively disposed towards your org and your mission, I will not be #donating to you. Even if I've donated to you in the past.

If your robot caller tries to pretend that it is, in fact, an actual #human, then I will *also* be doing what I can to get others to stop donating to you. This is a complete #ethical #failure.

Continued thread

I'll probably lose my car, who knows because I don't have enough for that either and it's been several months of late payments

If many give a little we can save my little family

Again please help by sharing or #donating #boost here share my link elsewhere if possible

This begging is terrible for my mental health as I keep getting nothing no matter how much I gut myself rehashing my #trauma
I'm tired of wanting to die

🩸 Please consider #donating #blood if you can. There is an urgent need right now!
🩸 https://www.vitalant.org/donate/locations
🩸 My personal referral code is: BigHeart-2194-T
🩸 Giving blood saves lives!

I have had nothing but a positive experience donating blood with Vitalant and the process is pain free (no worse than getting your blood drawn for lab work) and relaxed and takes about 15 minutes once it starts. You're in and out of there sooo fast!

Seriously... please donate if you can!

❤️ Thanks!
