Smartphone possibilities --- looking at something like this to possibly go with any future smartphone I get or use --- not sure on security, nevermind safety, nor durability but it may at least enable fuller use.

*I'll be going here - stopping by a location in all likelihood to get to Nevada & home, so with their exchange/return policy, I should be able to get that sorted before I get all the way back home.
Hey friends,
So many of you stepped up to help me reach my goal for my dental needs and I can’t thank you enough for it. I’m on the path of getting my mouth taken care of which is all the yay.
However, a dear friend of mine just had their AC go out on them with no real hope of repairs or replacements possible due to their income.
They are blind and neurodiverse like myself, have breathing conditions that are effected by the heat, as well as indoor cats that live with them as emotional support.
It's one thing for me to ask for help for myself, but please, Fedi, if you can, please consider helping my friend. No one needs to be dealing with this heat during this time of year.
They are one of the nicest people I know and have been struggling so hard up until this point to keep their head afloat. There’s been quite a few times now that I’ve been in some bad headspaces and they helped me get through another rough patch.
To say I personally vouch for them is an understatement.
So please guys, if you have it to spare, please consider helping my friend stay cool through the hottest part of the year. I would consider it a huge favor to me.
And as always, if you don’t have it to spare, that’s perfectly fine. A boost goes a long way as well as maybe a nice word or few for them to help keep spirits up. @ we_are_spc@dragonscave.space

Thank you to everyone who helped make this possible. I love you all.

I'm so beyond touched right now, I can't begin to tell say how much.
All the Kayls hugs and gratitudes from myself and my GF who has been besides herself with worry for me.
Thank you. I will pay this forward and always remember this.

Update: 1045 out of 1700! THANK YOU!
Hey guys, I really hate asking again, but can I get some help with this maybe?
I'm 995 towards my goal of 1700. Details within, but all assistance go towards helping me pay off debts and bills so that I can get the help I need for my mouth which is beyond emergency need at this point.
If you can't donate, please share for visibility.
Love and hugs, and thanks for your consideration.

UPDATE: 1045 out of 1700! THANK YOU!
Hi all. My name is Kaylie, though most of my friends just call me Kayls or Fox, and for those who don't know me, I am a queer and trans deafblind autistic student and I'm trying really hard to raise the required funds that I need so that I can finally get the necessary dental work done so that I may have a better quality of life free of pain and debilitating and health-endangering infections and complications.
I've been posting this for a week now. We've made amazing progress and I love and appreciate all of you for the shares and donations thus far, but I really want to close this thing out with a happy ending.
We're 985 out of 1700 dollars in. So very close now, a lot closer than we were last week, so please, anything and everything helps.
I know times are really hard right now for everyone and I hate asking, but if you have a little extra you can spare, it would be more than appreciated.
All funds go towards paying off debts and bills so I can get the emergency dental help I need as I'll be able to work with a payment plan and therefore able to finally get relief from this torcher that is my mouth.
Full situation on the GFM.
Please and thank you so much for your consideration.
With all the love in the world,
Kaylie 🐾💜🐾

A reminder that the genocide of disabled people by removing benefits and euthanizing us was literally how the Nazi party got voted in in the first place

@timrichards Feedback on train-travel with wheelchair using son-in-law in UK:
Local trains in NW Preston to Windemere AMAZING. Wchair markings on platform to show where to wait. Space for wchair in carriage. Guard on-hand every station to help with a ramp. 10/10
Local train London to Brighton and London to Stansted Airport: none of the above. Just had to run with wchair and get on where we could.
Luggage racks on UK trains WAY too small to fold up his chair so we had to leave it open and he sat in it in door space. He is able to step onto train with us helping. If hed been fully wchair user, he wouldve had terrible trouble.
