Sep. 8th, 2014 07:49 amGood morning everyone, and welcome to Radio Free Monday!
Brief note -- this post crossposts from Dreamwidth to Livejournal, and last week the crosspost ate some of the coded usernames. Hoping that won't happen this week but if it does, I'm aware of the problem, no need to notify me -- while I like to give credit, the coded usernames are never the vital link in any blurb :) Thanks!
Ways To Give:

peasantwitch linked to The Top Chop, a fundraiser for a friend's top surgery. You can read more, watch a video, and support Nathan's top surgery here.
vanessasketch was offering gorgeous art commissions to earn money to attend a friend's wedding, but now needs the money for veterinarian bills for her dog, who has been having health issues. You can check out her art and learn about her pricing here.
J McCartha teaches in an impoverished rural area of the US, at a high school where the very new theatre program has no district funding. She is fundraising to buy make-up kits for performance and classes; you can read more and support their theatre here.
Accidental Shakespeare Company is still raising funds for their production of Macbeth in Chicago, and are still far from their goal. You can learn more and support the show here but even if you can't support it, there's a great post about it here that you can reblog if you have a tumblr!
Anon linked to a kickstarter for the web series MisSpelled, which features five women of color as witches trying to learn about their newly acquired powers. You can read more, see a trailer, and support the project here; the official website with more trailers and info is here.

songspinner9 is raising money to bring the North African and Islamic music group AZA to perform for students at her school. You can read more about the school and support the fundraiser here.
Mad En linked to an article about Hullabaloo, an animated steampunk adventure conceived of by one of the animators who worked on recent short films Paperman and Adam And Dog. It looks like an amazing project; you can also read more and support it here. While it has reached its funding goal, art like this can never have too much support behind it.
Housing:
off_coloratura is looking for a third roommate in a Rogers Park apartment in Chicago. $750/mo plus utilities; a private room with shared bath, in-unit laundry, and two cats, close to the red line and grocery. You can view pictures and get more information here.
