RULES:

1. Mods do not vet individual mutual aid requests. Donate at your own risk and hold each other accountable. If you see something even remotely suspicious, do not hesitate to bring it to the attention of a moderator for review.
1. All mutual aid requests must go in this community.

1. Sending censored donation receipts to the moderator team is based.
1. Moderator Pinning Rules:
a. Moderators are strictly prohibited from promoting/endorsing/pinning individual mutual aid requests (especially those of their own) as this creates unfair post visibility and could therefore benefit more from that than the standard user. Moderators caught engaging in this behavior will be swiftly removed from the moderator board with extreme prejudice.

b. Moderators are allowed to pin and crosspost to !main donation requests for large scope issues such as natural disaster relief funds and bail funds (Example) along with other crowd or moderator compiled informational resources pertaining to donating or volunteering (Example) so long as the utmost due diligence is done prior to endorsement, especially in the case of directing people to donate to non-profit organizations.

c. Financial documents of non-profit organizations available to the public must be heavily scrutinized before moderator endorsement and links to those must also be included in the endorsement post to help the community make their own decision as to whether or not they should donate.

I recently found out the water at the place I'm staying is definitely full of lead cuz all the plumbing fixtures were put together with lead solder (recently too :( )

So I've been drinking the filtered water you can get in those refillable 20 liter bottles

Could someone send $10 so I can go refill this container and maybe get some food?

All I have rn is my cash app at $paxxap

Thank you for reading <3

Edit: Someone sent me $10! Thank you so much

You might also be able to nick a water treatment thing, like a Brita or Pur filter, they have faucet attached ones that are pretty small and you can bring it with you to the next place of course. They are effective at reducing lead levels, so maybe grab 2 lead testers and check before and after filtration?

I actually have one of those and I was using it until recently cuz I've always known the pipes here were made of lead. I just found out like a week ago that recent (!!!!!) plumbing work had been done with lead solder so the levels are probably super fucked now

And I read online they only reduce lead levels to a certain extent so I've been too afraid to drink the water here at all. Next time I have gas money to make it to a Home Depot (or similar) though I'm gonna take your advice and see if it's actually drinkable with a filter

I really hope I didn't get poisoned already :(
