ELLA’S WHEELCHAIR FUND
My name is Ella. I am 20 years old, disabled, and I need a power wheelchair.
I was diagnosed with Ehlers Danlos Syndrome, a rare genetic condition in which I experience dislocations of my joints and lots of pain in my muscles, joints, and nerves. I also have a weak immune system, and many mental health issues. Due to this, I am receiving Disability benefits.
I have needed a power wheelchair for some time. Due to my unstable joints in all of my body, I am unable to push myself in a manual wheelchair without damaging my elbows, fingers, wrists, and shoulders. I need a chair that I can use without moving much of my body, so that I experience less pain.
I am unable to get insurance to pay for me to receive a power chair. I am raising money to be able to afford a Jazzy Elite Portable Power Chair and wheelchair ramp and wheelchair trailer for my van. I will be buying this online once I have received enough money to afford the chair.
My situation is urgent. These days, I cannot move far at all. I have difficulty walking without great amounts of pain. I cannot make it up or down stairs and I cannot do the things I once enjoyed doing. My life has become very lonely and sad, as I do not leave home often. My condition is getting worse with time.
I hope you can help me. I greatly appreciate anyone who can donate. I will post updates about my journey towards getting a wheelchair as I fund-raise. Any amount donated helps. I will write a personal thank you note to anyone who does contribute 20 dollars or more.
Please signal boost if you cannot donate.

So far I have raised 440 dollars out of 5000!!! It is is one step closer to my goal. Any donation helps a lot.
bachelor’s thesis survey
hi everyone,
as you know i’m writing my thesis right now and it would be a huge help if you (especially the British English native speakers amongst you) could fill out my survey, if you have the time! You’ll have to read some texts and answer one question about each one, it shouldn’t take longer than 30 minutes max.
Here’s the link: My Survey
If you have any questions or encounter problems feel free to send me an ask or a message!! Thank you 🙂
(reblogs etc are appreciated too!)
if u weren’t aware of salvation army’s homophobia, its prety hardcore
a guy in a salvos truck yelled at me and my gf while we were kissing today so I was thinking of this
Do you know, when I was in high-school I went to the mall near my house with my girlfriend to do some Christmas shopping.
We were there, sixteen year old me and seventeen year old her, holding hands and window-shopping, minding our own business.
This Salvation Army shitheel gets aggro about it in the middle of the mall and I’m there totally flabbergasted cause like, it’s christmas
Only, 16!Tabi had even less composure than 26!Tabi, so I lost my fucking mind on her.
Thing is: when I’m really angry, I don’t rage, I go all cold and apparently that freaks people out, because I could see my gf backing up and the lady getting tense and then I realized that anger doesn’t solve problems.
So instead, I started wailing.
Picture this: 5’4, tiny, blonde haired high school girl with her little violin on her back and pearls in her ears just as PTA-approved as could be, full on sobbing in the hallway.
Just, sobbing like my dog’s been shot.
Now my gf’s like, “oh fuck” and the lady’s like “oh fuuuuck!” and I’m here, head thrown back, tears down my cheeks and in that shrill, distressed, /loud/ voice, “WHY WOULD YOU B-b-be so MEAN?! It’s CHRISTMAS!”
And the lady’s like “please stop Oh fuck” because now we have a crowd, and this Molly Weasley of a woman putters over, “what’s the matter, dear?”
And mall security’s coming and this bell ringer is looking very uncomfortable so I just look at this matronly ellen-watching suburban housewife lady, eyes wide and wet and my lip wobbling.
“I was, she s-said, s-s-she said I was going to HELL!”
And I burst right back into tears.
Maaaaaaaan, they didn’t even stick around to ask why she’d said it. Soon as I said it, Mall po-po bounced her like a fucking pogo stick.
We get outside and my girlfriend’s like “that is the most Slytherin thing I have ever seen anyone do.”
It was four years before I saw the Army back in that mall.
that is beautiful
Holiday reminder: don’t let anyone get away with trying to make you feel bad about yourself.
So yeah, they’re not just ‘homophobic’, they’re bigoted fucking murderers.
(Wikipedia article on her death conveniently (for SA) omits Salvation Army connection, linking only to expired articles from local newspapers)
SA claims that they didn’t turn her away, and accept all homeless people, except, it’s not like Jennifer Gale was only trans woman refused shelter by Salvation Army, making this denial appear to be worth less than bullshit:
http://www.msnbc.com/way-too-early/transgender-woman-claims-she-was-refused-housing
and to think i was gonna help my aunt with this…
Annual reminder not to trust what our SA donations actually support.
There are plenty of other charities who help out the needy this time of year. Support a local food bank or community housing center.
THIS IS SO IMPORTANT I’ve told ppl this but now I have sources
Salvation Army are scum. Judgemental assholes.
fuck my mom was like “its fine its not like everyone who works there is homophobic”
this is awful. please spread around, it’s important.
The Salvation Army has been disgusting for a long while
I reblogging this now, as a reminder that this is unacceptable REGARDLESS of the time of year.
^^^^^^
My salary is so shitty 😒
have you tried the bbq ranch chicken salad from Wendy’s?
OMG I THOUGHT THAT SAID SALAD
Who was Adam Young’s infernal mother???? Like was there some demoness who got a really important job or did Satan go to some random human woman like “hey wanna be the evil Mother Mary?”?? Or did he create Adam by like….budding or something?
yeah i’ve been thinking about it a lot too
What’s your fucking problem??
If you don’t like his music, you don’t have to listen.
oh. oh my god. I’m so sorry
I 100% can’t tell if you’re joking or not but we’re not talking about Adam Young the American singer and songwriter behind Owl City
We’re talking about Adam Young the fictional antichrist from the 1990 British absurdist comedy novel Good Omens by Neil Gaiman and Terry Pratchett
Isn’t this the same kind of mistake the Nuns made?
This is still my favorite interaction on any Good Omens post I’ve made because it makes me wonder how many other poor confused Owl City fans have stumbled onto Good Omens posts about Adam Young but have been too tactful to say anything
*slowly spins around in my chair with the menacing aura of an antagonist, only instead of holding a cat in my lap there’s like…… a potted plant there* *i’m holding a plant* *i am petting that plant* we meet at last
me, reading aloud a post i just saw on a Queen fanblog: okay but Aziraphale and Crowley are ‘car friend/gay who can’t drive’ solidarity
my roommate, Amias: bold of you to say Crowley can drive
me: him having a car is literally critical to the plot of the book
Amias: doesn’t mean he can drive.
me: are you saying Crowley’s belief that he can drive is the only reason he can?
Amias: yes that’s exactly what i’m saying.
me: if he suddenly was deprived of occult powers and got into a car he’d be like “what the fuck is this”? that’s what you’re saying?
Amias: yes!! look, he goes 110 miles an hour in the middle of London and things rearrange themselves around him, he couldn’t pass a traffic test if his life depended on it. crowley can’t actually drive he’s just doing magic constantly
me: …somehow you’ve convinced me
