mutual aid request
hi everyone! I'm very sorry to ask for money again. I live in Germany with an IT job and I'm not in acute financial distress, so please prioritise your contributions accordingly. I'm asking you to chime in a few bucks to help cover my own mutual aid/community efforts, if you have the opportunity.

readers of our feed know that for the past 2 years+ we have sheltered some trans youth that had nowhere else to go, and who were in a delicate legal situation. two of my queer kids have now become safe enough to leave the nest, and one of my legal kids is also leaving next month. various expenses related to their trips, opsec precautions, and household maintenance have burned a hole of some ~500€ so far in the budget, and with no Kindergeld starting next month we expect to have trouble building savings. so I'm running this little fundraiser to give us some breathing space. if you want, you can think of it as a thank-you for the carework and risks incurred the past two years—and as funding for future sheltering efforts, of course, as I will for sure make the extra space available to more queer ppl in need of shelter 🙇♀️
all contributions beyond the 500€ debt will be saved for kid #3's move to Portugal next month. all of us from the freshly emptied anarchist catgirl commune thank you for your continued support ![]()
of course no one ever has two teams accounts and gets kicked from one. microsoft devs have never heard of contract work.
I love this line. It's so true it hurts.

injury
kinda pissed that the very first bike with disc brakes I ever bought had them maladjusted so badly I basically never got full braking power and now after over a year of building wrong braking habits I taught myself to adjust them properly and immediately crashed. Nothing too bad but I need to replace my kickstand and I'm gonna feel some of these bruises for a while

now I finally get why people rave about disc brakes, still it would've been impossible to set up rim brakes this wrong without it being obvious
injury
idk if I wanna go to the bike shop that sold me the bike and adjusted my brakes once and complain but I kinda want to. maybe they'll give me a free kickstand. they probably won't.
