After all the patience, pacing, and grit it took to get this meal from the oven to my plate, now, it’s time to enjoy my delicious meal.

Depending on what I'm eating, there are times when I have to cut my food into smaller pieces for easier consumption. I do this specifically to make it easier for me to swallow.

Navigating this medical storm means dealing with persistent facial pain and tenderness; therefore, I always have to be incredibly mindful when I'm eating.

ICE's goons shot Carlos yesterday during one of their rampages in California's Central Valley.

I pass by Patterson, where they tried to kidnap Carlos, going to rocketry events several times a year.

If you can, please give to a fund to cover medical care for him and expenses for his family.

An old and very good friend of mine! A modest goal for what their USA medical cost will be. I think we can all assume it will be higher.

Please boost!

▶️ #MutalAid | Y'all, another Winter Storm headed my way this weekend and I'll likely be cabin-bound for several days, beginning tomorrow.

I'm out of everything and need to fetch supplies this afternoon, but am down to $28 in my bank account.

If you can spare a few dollars, I'd be most grateful to you.

Donations to my Ko-Fi account will be available this afternoon in time to go shopping. If you have questions, please DM me.

Please boost. Thank you! 🙏❤️ -- Eddie

My friend is still in the hospital and due to health reasons will need to quit her job and hopefully find something less labor intensive. She has an MLIS and would love library work somewhere or remote.

She has a GoFundMe. Please help if you can.

Food Not Bombs Naarm

Food Not Bombs is a worldwide movement that cooks and distributes vegan food to anyone and everyone, without restriction.
‎
The Melbourne chapter of the organisation currently gathers leftover organic fruit and vegetables from Queen Victoria Market and conventional produce from Preston Market, gives some to worthy causes, then cooks up the rest and shares it on the streets of the inner city and northern suburbs.
‎
Everything that isn’t collected for free is paid for by fundraising gigs, catering gigs, donations where people can afford them and even from the pockets of the volunteers themselves.
‎
Volunteers are always welcome! If you aren’t able to volunteer, your donations of cash or things we could use are also welcome.
