Okay, so I’m not calling out the OP of the post bc I firmly believe in assuming good intentions, but there’s a post going around with over 150,000 notes that just. When you know how misinformative it is, it really comes across badly.
Okay, so I went through the notes and check the subs out some and this is a breakdown of every sub on the post, in the originally listed order. Just keep in mind comment farming is widely disallowed and if you’re banned you’re likely to be sent to the universal scammer sub.
/r/Assistance - requires 60 days of regular activity, 400+ comment karma required, 18+ user age requirement, one account per household
/r/legaladvice - seemingly run by cops who delete actually helpful legal advice
/r/Randomkindness - for gifts only, fundraising explicitly banned

I’ve color coded the list, red for no assistance available, green for assistance offered, blue for food assistance, and white for ultra specific assistance. I’m sure this list is partially useful for very active reddit users. But some of these suggestions are just ridiculous.
So yeah, idk like don’t be this kind of person, don’t reblog this kind of shit without checking it out yourself. It’s condescending.
THANK YOU!! I get messages all the time about Reddit and i have to explain every time that they require a lot off shit my account isn’t even 2 months old i still can’t get help from them.
ya know, screw the Disney princesses. The best role models for little girls are witchy girls. Off the top of my head I’d like to mention Hilda and Tiffany Aching from Discworld. Feel free to add.
Lovely news, comrades! The Oakland Education Association (local teachers Union) has decided to go on strike starting tomorrow, citing extremely low wages and bad faith negotiations from the other side. If you are able, consider supporting them either financially (link below from the fine ppl at East Bay DSA) or in person (they welcome fellow picketers from within the community)
