Living situation, Request for help
@KS and I are in a very uncomfortable living situation right now (staying with my ex who is not super thrilled about us living here) and we have until our apartment lease runs out at the end of this month to find a place for us to go.
Neither of us have paying jobs right now, despite our best efforts. We have no idea where to start looking for help.
We would like to end up somewhere in the PNW if possible and stay out of states that have laws/policies that would harm a trans/enby couple (TX, NC, OK, etc), though we understand that we just need someplace we can have shelter and food for now.
If anybody has any suggestions for what we can do or might be able to help us, please let us know. We are thinking about maybe setting up a GoFundMe or something but aren't sure if it would matter or help us at all.
Treating "Russian" as a slur and scrubbing it from everything faster than you remove real slurs is a really bad precedent
just uploaded my tool to let you make an embedable bandcamp-style player for selling music on itch.io (or anywhere you can embed html+js+assets)

And if you are financially able, you can contribute to help union members who are in financial duress during the strike here https://www.gofundme.com/f/a2zgjx-support-striking-gmg-union-workers
The workers of the GMG Union -- my former workplace and a union I helped organize -- are officially on strike.
Among the issues they're striking for include ending the practice of forced relocations (which led to the mass departure of The Onion AV Club staff), remote work rights and full coverage of transgender healthcare costs.
How can you help? While the strike is ongoing, do not visit or contribute to any G/O Media websites (Gizmodo, Jalopnik, Jezebel, Kotaku, Lifehacker, and The Root)
Ukraine: go fund me helping Disabled people
Cross-posting from birdsite:
In addition to losing shelter & food, Disabled ppl lose access to adequate care that keeps them alive. Medicines, treatments, even small things like going to the bathroom.
There’s a group based in Kyiv dedicated to Disabled Ukrainians taking donations https://t.co/3mRauP8zY8
