So, my partner and I are disabled and last month the government fucked up my most recent health assessment and decided that they weren't going to pay me anymore.

I've gone through the motions required to combat this decision, and now I'm at the final stage, where I've applied for the tribunal. When that process is kicked off I will actually have an income I can live on again, but until then, we're fucked.

I have gone through all my savings, I have very little money left for food and by the middle of next week I won't be able to keep up with my bills. If anyone has anything to spare it would really be appreciated.

who knows if the moon’s
a baloon,coming out of a keen city
in the sky—filled with pretty people?
(and if you and i should

get into it,if they
should take me and take you into their baloon,
why then
we’d go up higher with all the pretty people

than houses and steeples and clouds:
go sailing
away and away sailing into a keen
city which nobody’s ever visited,where

always
it’s
Spring)and everyone’s
in love and flowers pick themselves

—e e cummings

As you enter a town, you see a sign saying "Population: 1,204".

"That can't be right," you say. "The encyclopedia says this town has 1,186 residents. Obviously the sign is wrong."

This is what prescriptivism based on dictionary entries sounds like.

Please enjoy a random picture of one of the oddest mutant machines ever put on the road: A bus fueled by *uncompressed* natural gas.

(These were briefly a Thing in the 1930s, but a scant few of them continue in use in places that can't afford to throw away perfectly functional oddballs to this very day.)

This explosion of absurdity can induce panic, unreality, being overwhelmed and desiring control, order, normalcy. Finding the appeal in fascism.

What I want you to do is lean into this though
If all this absurd shit can be true what else can we make true
Clearly the boundaries of what's realistic have collapsed entirely
Nothing is off the table

Tear down the outlines around you. Do shit you never thought was worth it before. Try to change the world in ways you thought were futile. Clearly now is the time

"You are a good being," said the knight, "I do not wish to kill you."
"Then go back," said the dragon, "and tell all you did."
"I'll be known as a murderer!"
"Dragonslayer. Do it to keep me safe from others."
"I see. Very well."
"You are a good man, George."
