Ahmed Saad, a Palestinian man who had to jump through an insane amount of loops to get the funds necessary for escaping Gaza, is asking us all to donate to his friend’s family fund.
Mohamed is a hemophilia patient who needs access to medicine and to do surgery on his knees, his 11-year-old daughter also needs thigh surgery (she was supposed to do it outside Gaza in November but couldn't travel due to the border issues). Mohammed’s condition is worsening rapidly and, with Israel destroying the last functional hospital in Gaza, things are looking dire.
Please donate generously!

"Hello. I'm Ruben Zamora from Masked Republic and I'm fundraising for my friend the original Pyschosis, also known as Nicho.
On Thursday, February 15th, 2024 Nicho suffered a fall while working. At the moment, nobody knew how bad the injury was. After a few days, fellow luchador Damian convinced him to go to the hospital. Nicho took the advice, which he would later learn might have saved his life. At the moment, nobody knew how bad the injury was.
Upon arriving at the hospital, x-rays and an MRI were taken and showed that his right hip was broken. Not bruised, not fractured, but broken. Medical doctors advised Nicho that he would not be able to go home and instead must stay for observation and an eventual emergency surgery.
A few days later the surgery was performed successfully. Several days later, Nicho was allowed to go home. I have been in contact with Nicho and he tells me that he is not able to sit up, move, much less walk. He is to stay in bed for several weeks before he can attempt to sit up. Nicho tells me that the pain is severe, keeping him from sleeping at night.
Why am I doing this, you may ask? Nicho has been not only a very good friend to me, but he has been a loyal supporter in what we do at Masked Republic since day 1. When ever I called for a booking date, he always said yes, asked when and where, and say he'd be there. (Note, he never started the conversation asking about pay.) When I needed a radio interview, or a tv appearance, Nicho was always the first to step up and help out... never asking about pay. When I would go out at midnight to plaster my event posters around San Diego, Nicho would cross the border and come along to help put up posters. He never asked for anything in return. When the attendance was bad and I was short on cash, Nicho would tell me, "pay everyone else first. Take care of all the kids (luchadors from the undercard) and your expenses first and whenever you have money, don't forget about me".
For those reasons, and many more, I want to help my friend Nicho, the real and true original Psychosis.
His generosity and support has allowed me and Masked Republic to thrive in the lucha libre space, and thus allowing us to help others and provide them with an opportunity to pursue their dreams as well.
All donations will go directly to Nicho in order for him to pay his medical bills, pay for his upcoming physical therapy, and help pay for any future medical expenses as he will not be able to work for the foreseeable future.
I ask that you please help if you can. Every donation will help. Please tell a friend.
Thank You!
-R"

DONATE THROUGH PAYPAL
DONATE THROUGH VENMO
Safebow, led by raindovemodel over on instagram, is a grassroots team currently doing their best to evacuate almost 200 Palestinian individuals from Gaza.
To do this, they had to raise over $300,000 in a very short amount of time. Amazingly, they not only raised that amount, but surpassed it to the point that they'll now be able to buy prosthetics for the hospitals they work with.
However, Gofundme has thrown a spanner into the work by going completely silent and holding up over half of their funds.
They are on a time crunch as they desperately try to recoup their money before the border closes. Please donate to their Paypal, Venmo or Zelle. Their window of success is genuinely a matter of days.

Feeling very bitter about broke people barely having anyone but each other
Only broke artists buy from broke artists, only the people who are barely making rent donate the the people who can't, only the fellow disabled people donate to disabled people who can't afford treatment, everything outside of that practically feels like a rare fluke
It's exhausting
Edit bc I don't want ppl to feel guilty for no reason: I'm referring to straight up wealthy people who aren't Mr.Beasting it up all the time. This is not me being mad at you if you aren't struggling to survive but also aren't constantly donating to the less fortunate.

I need money.
For bills.
If anyone is willing to help, that would be awesome.
I work, I'm just not making enough anymore.
$onepeaceman is my cashapp.
A lot of fake mf on here ask me to DM them. And don't do shit.
Don't get my hopes up. I will just block and curse you tbh
Capitalism is the bane of everyone's existence. As far as I'm concerned: if you're actually rich and can afford it, you should be generous.
Really. That's what Jesus would do.
That's what I did when I had enough.
So: please and thank you in advance. I will be sure to thank you again if you give.

I have a Redbubble!
As some of you may have seen I'm struggling financially. If you would like to support me and also get something in return, I have my prints up on Redbubble here and I'm thinking of getting started on INPRNT (if I can balance out the pros and cons to my liking, since there are a number of significant downsides to INPRNT).
My other post is still active, and I still only just have barely 10% of what I need. I'm taking art commissions basically until the end of time, and at this point I'll probably take literally any commission as long as I think I can do it justice. NSFW, mech, furry, you name it. If you want it drawn I'll fucking do it.
I'll admit it, I'm desperate. I'm working as much as I can but that only goes so far. I get extra hours next month but that still leaves me in a deficit for this month.
I appreciate any and all help I get. i promise.
