Finally.
Tankie as a word has lost pretty much all of its meaning. And, it is only a matter of time before anyone who thinks Nazis should be punched is labeled a "tankie".
My dad recently had to go to hospital for a procedure due to debilitating arthritis in his neck
His company, however, decided not to pay his sick leave
He was off work for 2 weeks leading up to the procedure, and was supposed to be off another 3 weeks following
Because of them refusing to pay him, he was forced to go back to work only 1 week after, against the hospital's instructions
His union is fighting it, but until then, he's lost almost an entire month of wages
We were already living paycheck to paycheck, and we don't know how we're going to make ends meet this month
I know times are tough for everyone, but if you could spare even a little, I would be so so grateful
Even if you can't donate, just reblogging would be much appreciated
Thank you
Kings & Beggars - Breve regnum (15th century student son from Krakow)
Breve regnum erigitur,
Sublimatum deprimitur
Et depressum elabitur
Transmutato tempore.
Puerilem militiam,
Perargutam peritiam,
Regentium industriam,
Hanc eduxit in opere.
Cracoviensem filium,
Fulgentem velut lilium
Ac de numero milium
Cunctis praeferendum
Octo dierum spatium
Hoc sustinet solatium,
Post hoc regis palatium
Plagis feriendum.
Namque regis electio
Fit studii neglectio
Ac desolatur lectio
Tota septimana
Snake mantis, Kongobatha diademata, Nanomantidae

hey so uh
Since the referendum in Russia has approved of Putin’s changes to Constituition, letting him stay in power until 2035, redefining marriage as “union of man and woman” and the government literally having talks about banning rainbow and comparing rainbow flags to nazi symbolism, it’s not been great for the LGBT+ community here.
In addition to that, we had the awful “Gay Propaganda” law since 2013 and the number of hate crimes towards LGBT+ Russians has increased greatly since then, and it’s likely to increase even more now.
So maybe consider donating to Russian LGBT Network to help us Russian gays out?
PLEASE B00ST: HELP ME SAVE MY FRIEND’S EMOTIONAL SUPPORT ANIMAL
GO FUND ME LINK HERE
my friend is a brown muslim bisexual woman who’s family has hit hard economic times. Fleeing the Netherlands at one point due to extreme islamophobia, they decided to return for better access to medical mental health care. moving is expensive, being pressured to move is even more expensive. all of this compounds with the current COVID-19 pandemic, due to strict border requirements my friends cat Skitty is currently stranded in Istanbul. they are currently in need of money to both bring Skitty home AND contribute to their family’s rent and grocery expenses while they resettle. If she cannot gather the funding Skitty will have to be humanly euthanized.
We can all empathize with the lonely feelings of the pandemic. i personally can say i wouldn’t have made it through this all this far without my pets, and i’m sure some of you feel the same. Emotional Support Animal doesn’t come close to explaining how important this little cat is to her. They have spent agonizing months apart (for the both of them!) and it would mean so much to have them reunited.
