I hate capitalism

I would have all the supplies i need for a stable living situation if money wasn't in the way

I lack:
Pneumatic springs for the side solar panels on the bus to prop up solar panels while being wind and weather resistant
Magnets for the side solar panels on the bus
Ubolts for bus suspension
More 12v batteries for more stable power at night (need atleast 2 more for now)
Replacement connectors for escooter
Materials to rebuild the bus into a more livable place (replacement of ceiling, materials for lab/office, materials for kitchen and bathroom, Insulation for inside of bus)
Insulation and heat shielding for 100 gal water tank as well as tank heaters for cold months

Tire change for bus as the retreads are prone to coming off at any point

I will need as much as possible as building it out is intense in every way in this realm

And ill need this boosted everywhere if yall are able to

@mutualaid @disability @trans @vegan

Yup, I'm in love with Debian, GrapheneOS, LGBTQIA+ rights, and Anarcho-syndicalism, and I frequently post about these topics.

Happy #Saturday everyone!

#GonzoNotes: As we slide into Spring, I find myself at a bit of a turning point. I’ve been out of work and freelancing for just over a year now, without luck at finding a permanent position to replace the Texas Observer. Unemployment just ran out. So it’s time for me to take stock of myself, and the industry.

Over the past year, I’ve found success as a freelance reporter, and grown my readership on sites like Bluesky. At the same time, my job search has been fruitless; the closest I got to being hired over the past year was at an environmental nonprofit, not at a press publication. Despite all my accomplishments, I’ve averaged less than one job interview a month. Unemployment helped me make ends meet between assignments, but it also forced me to spend time applying for jobs I didn’t actually want.

I still hope that someday I’ll find a home at another publication that values queer, opinionated voices like mine. However, I’m starting to feel like that role might not exist right now. In the meantime, there are still stories I need to tell.

HELP TO FUND AN EMERGENCY SHELTER FOR TRANS PEOPLE FROM RUSSIA

Note: I don't represent anyone from Centre T, I'm just a random person who wants to share and help

Centre T has a shelter in Armenia for trans people that left Russia due to transphobic laws and political persecution, and is currently financially struggling. Because Russian people are mostly poor and can't afford donating, I'm asking everyone on fedi to help to cover at least April.

Regular donations are a priority, but one-off are welcomed too

DONATE: https://buymeacoffee.com/centret

RAISED: €157 of €1,463

BONUS (optional): if you donate, I might offer drawings in return
For that, look at my PWYW FA page https://www.furaffinity.net/view/56045610/ and contact me with proof that you've donated to Centre T
