If you don’t know about Net Neutrality well you need to know about it now. This is no joke or a game because if we don’t do something living expenses are going be harder to meet.
If you thought being a college student is expensive bc of books and tuition imagine what you’ll be paying just to do a research paper.
If you were against paying for YouTube red well it won’t matter bc you’ll have to pay just to access the website. This goes for all social media sites as well. You’ll have to pay to access your email.
Forget paying for basic internet speed you’ll be paying for packages that will only allow you to access certain websites. It’s these packages is the reason why many cut cable and only pay for Netflix. To access the internet will become more expensive and controlled. Let that sink in if it hasn’t already.
That is why we need to take action. And this post will make it easy for you to do that.

The ability to share information without impediment is critical to the progression of technology, science, small business, and culture. Please stand with the public by protecting Net Neutrality once and for all.”

👨⚕️👩⚕️ REBLOG IF YOU THINK IT’S 🆗 FOR A TRANS PERSON TO NOT GO THROUGH SURGERY
Not everyone wants to go under the 🔪. And honestly that’s totally fine. There are other ways besides surgery to pass and if that makes one comfortable then so be it.
HEY SURGERY IS SCARY AND IT’S NOT ALWAYS EASY TO REVERSE. It’s fine if you want to wait, it’s fine if you don’t want it at all!
1. I currently live and have been living in a highly emotionally abusive home for over 10 years now. My step father aka my abuser makes things next to miserable for me emotionally on a daily basis. I honestly never knew I had anxiety along with my depression until HE came into my life. He’s never liked me and I have never liked him. He has expressed time and time again how badly he wants me gone. He has set a forced on final limit for my living here with him and my mom for before winter of next year. So moving out ASAP is the top priority!
2. Be able to boost what little cash I get from my bi-weekly paycheck. Which by no means can pay off the bills and such of living alone or otherwise.
3. Pay for my knowledge drivers test.
4. Pay for my driven drivers test.
5. To be able to and as I need get gas or whatever else I might need for my vehicle.
6. Possibly a vehicle.
7. I honestly have very little clothes that fit me correctly to my name. Its next to impossible where I live to find clothes in my sizes and when it happens to be possible it always ends up being too much to pay for me.
8. Possibly a driving instructor.
9. My cell phone card per month.
10. Protection for my laptop.
11. To be able to visit my family up north when I want to or can. As I normally only get to go up there once a year nowdays. I would love to at least make it twice.
12. Until I have my license I am going to need help with getting to and from work by taxi as they are not cheap at all.
13. Daily living needs ( Groceries, medicals and whatnot )
14. More then likely next to everything I am going to need for moving into a new place when I do.
So yeah the list is long and honestly there are probably some things I am forgetting but if you have any questions or concerns please private message me or send me an ask and I will get back to you as soon as I can. I am deeply sorry that I am asking for help like this and not being able to do anything in return. It truly bugs me asking for help like this but I need this help and this is my only option left to me. Any reblogs or donations are greatly appreciated!
Sigh… More things to add to the ever growing list: new winter boots, and a new cell phone…
So close to giving up on asking for this help… I would not keep pushing it if I did not need it as much as I do. This matter is adding to my depression and anxiety to the extremes now days and it will only get worse as time goes on. All the things on this list I do need the money for but moving out of my current living situation is a TOP PRIORITY. I cannot continue living where I am with the way he treats me. He’s never going to stop doing what he does to make me feel like emotional crap so I need to go about leaving as soon as possible for the greater good for my emotional health.
There’s a petition out to get rid of the Best Stuff First option on Tumblr in order to defend the artists out there who have dropped in notes/exposure.
I feel like I should make a post about this because it’s not something that’s very well-known, and that Americans in particular may need to know about given the uncertain state of our healthcare system at the moment. I’ve wanted to write this out for a while, It’s kind of a long post, so sorry about that!
If you have an emergency and have to go to the hospital, you’ll owe the hospital a lot of money. (I got into a car wreck and broke my ankle and my arm. My hospital bill was around $20,000)
You’ll also owe the ambulance provider, if you need one. (My ambulance bill was about $800)
You may get separate bills from the anesthesiologist or surgeon. (My anesthesiologist bill was $1,700)
You may need follow-up appointments. (My orthopedic surgeon billed me for the appointments and his surgery together and it was about $1,000)
You’ve also got to pay for medical equipment you need afterward, like crutches or a walking boot. (Mine cost about $75)
Altogether, I ended up with almost $24,000 in medical debt from one car accident. That’s a really scary number for someone like me who makes $10/hr at a 12 hour a week job.
I got my debt down to $1075 by making some phone calls and submitting some paperwork.
The first thing I did was contact the hospital. They don’t make it easy to find, but many hospitals (perhaps most hospitals?) have financial assistance programs for people who can’t afford medical bills. I don’t make a lot of money, and I have bills to pay, so they were able to help me. I called the billing department and asked if they had any assistance programs for low income people who can’t pay their bills. I had to call multiple times, and I got transferred in circles by people who didn’t know what I was talking about. Finally, I got an appointment with someone in “Eligibility Services” (I don’t know what other hospitals call it, if it’s something different). I had to bring my pay stubs and copies of all of my bills. When I got to the hospital for the appointment, nobody knew what I was talking about so I had to wander a little to find where I needed to go. I spoke with the guy in Eligibility Services, and I waited for a decision on how much of the bill they would forgive. A month later, I got a call telling me it was totally forgiven.
I did the same thing for my ambulance bill and my anesthesiologist, but the process was a LOT easier. I just had to mail some paperwork and it was totally forgiven.
I didn’t bother with the medical equipment suppliers, since the bills came from separate companies and I didn’t feel like going through the process twice for $75. I was assured at the hospital that they had similar programs for debt forgiveness, so I could have probably avoided paying that too.
The only thing I couldn’t get taken care of was the surgeon/follow-up appointment cost, but they were able to put me on a no-interest payment plan.
Medical debt is scary because it’s something that can come from stuff that’s already really scary. I didn’t need the burden of $24,000 in debt on top of trying to get around on a crutch with a broken arm (it’s not easy, believe me!).. but I can’t imagine what it would be like with a bigger debt or a more severe medical emergency. I see lots of people in even worse trouble than I was in, both financially and medically. Please know that there are options for you when that GoFundMe doesn’t do enough. Even if your income is higher than mine, it’s worth a shot even for partial debt forgiveness.
I am about 900% sure there are people who don`the know this.
