Gran: “He’s never done any of it in a malicious way. Why didn’t the school system put in more filters, or firewalls, to prevent children from getting into that?”
County Spokesperson: "Threats to over 100,000 students’ safety, including hacking, will be met with the full force of the law and applicable District policy."
I’m supporting #student#protest in #Amsterdam remotely - through my “boots on the ground”, belonging to my wonderful rebel Alisa: #Occupation of #UvA still going strong, asking more people to come & to #donate supplies
So after a year+ back on etsy I've decided it's cheaper to just run my own site and I'll probably still have the same amount of sales
Etsy is costing me about $150 a year and I'm selling about $30 more than that.... that's a lot of fees
Which if I have to pay retail or even wholesale for supplies, it's basically $0 profit and the only reason I had any profit this last year is because most of my sales were digital patterns
So now I'm creating yet another website and realizing I have so (1/?)
Expire except for a few digital patterns that sell on occasion. It's just not worth it for how much I end up paying in fees.
I also need to work on homework today but I don't want to... lol. This week is the last week of my Bachelor's though so I can't just not do my finals. 😑
I don’t know which #student protestor needs to hear this but you do NOT need to be peaceful when counter protestors attack you. Completely descend upon paid Zionist thugs and beat them back. #StudentProtests
Student protesters at Goldsmiths, University of London, win concessions, name room after Shireen Abu Akleh
“To have that recognition of a Palestinian journalist that was murdered by the [Israeli military] and have that memorialised at this university will be amazing and something we are really proud of.”

Trump, at a rally in Waukesha, #Wisconsin, called for tougher action against campus protests & again suggested some of the protesters were paid actors. He called on college presidents to “remove the encampments immediately, vanquish the locals & take back our campuses for all of the normal students.”
He also, again, described 2017’s deadly neo-#Nazi rally in #Charlottesville, Virginia as “peanuts” compared to pro-#Palestinian student protests across the country
I love that #UK lawyers are pre warning the police that if they act like American police did against #student protestors they will help the students immediately. #Oxford#Solidarity#BDS#Palestine
Hey Fedi friends! It's the end of the month again which means it's time for a new mutual aid request. (This ended up being a little longer than I expected but bare with me! CashApp & PayPal links at the end! :floof_Heart:)
To try and keep this short and since many of the folks who have known me or seen me around the Fediverse know or have an idea of what the current situation is like.
I'm a minor with no source of income outside of coding which does not bring nearly enough in for me to even buy lunch most months so I have to resort to mutual aids or theft (Which got me in a lot of legal trouble, but fuck the corporates.). I need at least enough fundings to support me (Age 16, turning 17 this year) and my younger sibling (age 15).
I am a high school student living in a crappy situation with divorced parents. Where one house, the main house, I am refused basic needs such as, but not limited to, food, water, hygiene, clothing, proper medical care, etc. While the other house, my mothers, is a hoarder mess with little to no food, and when there is non expired food that has not been gotten into by animals, months, mold, maggots, etc, it is often times one of the following: Chocolate, cookies, Twinkies, hostess foods, etc. My mother hoards much more than just garbage but indeed, animals also. (With over 70 animals in the house and dogs who are not potty trained along with more animals, outside of the house).
Neither houses include proper medical care. I have a chronic skin disease that causes me severe pain and if it gets bad enough, it becomes an open wound that tunnels often times on my chest or on my legs. My parents do not supply the proper medications I need for these, and when asked or mentioned needing the medications, I get told "Get a job". (Which I am also not allowed to have.)
I'm constantly at risk of being kicked out of the house at any time without warning, a couple of months ago I was locked out of the house in regards to being trans and using my chosen name tho thankfully this was after a school play and I had a safe place at the time.
CPS does not listen. The cops do not listen. I cannot speak up about any of these issues even to trusted adults as this causes more issues at home and gets CPS involved.
Cost breakdowns for the month! Any extra fundings will be put towards getting my parrot a new urn (His last one unfortunately broke).
MEDICATIONS: $50 (4x meds for chronic disease (3 prescription + 1 one reg), anxiety/insomnia meds, pain killers)
CAT FOOD: $20
TOTAL: $500
NOT URGENT BUT STILL NEEDED: I will be doing commissions in regards to funding for this stuff, it might take a little bit but I'll do it o7
URN REPLACEMENT: $160 (I know this is expensive but it was the cheapest urn I could find that was made with a decent quality that would work better for traveling with him, as this bird means a lot to me, even in death. If you've known or seen me around within my past year and a half ish on Fedi you'd know how much my beloved Leo was worth to me<3)
(We attempted to fix the urn but it didn't work very well as it proceeded to keep breaking and at this point it's cheaper just to replace it)
LAPTOP FIX: $20
(Keyboard had an incident where one of the keys broke and need to be replaced, this was a rough estimate on the price it should cost from a friend. - The laptop doesn't have a warranty 😹 but I need this for personal use + school + studies)
