im tired of black friday being an orgy of spending and commercialism in the name of "deals"
so here's my black friday deal: if you're struggling financially or are having trouble making ends meet, i'll pitch in a bit to help you out: just reply to this post with a link to somewhere i can donate. i can't spare much but i'll do the best i can.
if you're someone privileged like me, consider doing one of these as well with the tag #givebackfriday or donating to links in the replies.
@chr I'm trying to claw my way out of a bad 5 years & have a loved one worse off than me by far. I have a paypal address? Or mobile service credit (mintsim), Amazon credit (headache pills & toothpaste in my cart for weeks), a 2013 or newer iPhone or iPad for my fam whose only connection out of an abusive black hole is a dying iPhone 4S (and whose main escapism is some iOS games + related fandom), or last but not least low impact one-off web/coding gigs for me? Or just donate to NAMI or DBSA ๐
