My account is now in overdraft. In order to get out of that hole, keep my utilities (that bill is due in 5 days), and afford other essentials that are due, I need about $600. I hate asking. Any help is appreciated more than I can say.

I'm awaiting payment on an invoice I expected to come in 2 weeks ago, and which I counted on to pay bills. My account's about to be hit with overdraft fees, and I still have to pay my NIPSCO (gas & electric), two copays, rideshare to two medical appointments, and more. Any help is appreciated! 🫶

Continuing to try to raise funds for a move from Tulsa, Oklahoma to Portland, Oregon in order to escape a poor financial and health situation. I need to raise $500 from where I am now by Monday in order to remain safe between now and the Oct. 10 move. ko-fi.com/chezdispense...

I've been in a mast cell flare for a week. It looks like one or two of my core safe foods may suddenly be off-limits. I need to restock my supply of the few things I can eat. All my available funds are going to Oct rent & COBRA. I'd be grateful for some help with groceries. 🫶 ko-fi.com/lynnemeyer

Thank you to everyone boosting this. 🫶 I currently have $5700 in freelance work in the queue, BUT none of that will hit my account until at least mid-October. I'm relying entirely on this Spotfund to get though September and pay October rent & COBRA. I need to raise about 2k more by Oct 1st.

So - I'm doing a big thing: planning to move across the country into a safer situation that stands to improve my health and financial wellbeing. Moving is, of course, expensive. I'm trying to raise money for three things: keeping myself safe in the lead up, the move, and starting over.

I maintain that the TTRPG industry has the best people in it, full stop. Want an example? This happened to one of my closest friends when they wrote to @heroforgeminis.bsky.social recently: Makes me really wish I had the time to get through my gray pile of shame so I could acquire more minis! <3

Okay so I dunno if this is exactly the best channel for this, but I gotta share: Hero Forge recently added a giant spider to their lineup of available options for minis, and as many of you know, I am a major arachnophobe, so getting jumpscared by a surprise spider every time I loaded the page wasn't great. Not really expecting anything, I sent in a message explaining my situation and asking if there was anything they could do to help that wouldn't be too much trouble, and Y'ALL:

NOT ONLY did they create a "hide spiders" option for everyone in the options menu, but they went ahead and automatically turned it on for me specifically. I'm so touched
