A New Laptop!
-
Hey! So as I mentioned in the RL disgruntlement thread, my laptop is super dead, and unfortunately we are on a super tight budget that makes getting a new one not workable right now. My son and I need a machine with a little versatility for remote schoolwork, and I am planning on using it to learn some programming languages and database management.
I started a GoFundMe here, anything any of y'all could give towards it would be so, so appreciated.

@wizz Hope the donation helps. If you don't hit your goal, LMK and I'll kick in a little more. ^_^
-
@wizz Here, take my money. I've been there as well.
-
Good. Thank you. I know it's a really hard thing to do.
-
I have been conditioned my whole life never to ask for help like this and honestly suffered because of it like a big dope. I am so grateful, seriously...it's like already half way to what I asked for, my mind is fucking blown and I feel SO MANY FEELS. Thanks y'all.
-
I only donated to make it $420. You're welcome.

@wizz Donated a little too. Hope you get to your goal.

@clarity
Even if I don't hit what I asked for exactly, what has been given is so much more than what I had to work with and I have options now!! Thank you. -
@wizz Been there before more than a few times. My laptop is my everything, my social life, my work, my community, my resources, my connection to knowledge. Every time it's been a mad rush to try find the funds to replace. So really hope you can find get something sorted.

I am posting to have a reminder to myself to donate later this week after my bills go through and I have extra funds.
-
GOAL REACHED.
I just...I am stunned and humbled that came together so quickly, hardly even a day later.
I'm full of so much hope and positive feels and it is a HUGE weight off my shoulders, holy shit.
Thank you, everybody who gave or even thought about it. Thank you, thank you, thank you.
I hope I have the chance to pass this amazing kindness on soon.

I was gonna donate too Wednesday when I got paid, but I'm glad that you got it together! I told you. We might talk mad shit to each other, but if one of us needs something, this community watches out for each other.
It's one of the reasons I stay. Ya'll're family.
Even if I don't really like some of you. Same as family.
-
It's here already!!!
I am SO GIDDY
-
Yay. I'm so happy you've got it! Crisis averted!
-
@wizz Huzzah! It is very shiny and new!
Good luck with the classes and like I said, LMK when you're ready to start looking. ^_^

Look at how fucking toxic we are.
That looks awesome. Canโt wait to hear about the cool things you and your son will do with it.
Hereโs a kitty.
