Not paying out OR sending contributor copies but fixing your fingers to suggest ordering additional copies of the soon to be out of print work you didn't pay writers for is a bold AF Grand Closing routine.
Who the fuck do these people think they are?
Check out my interview! Grateful to @seizethepress.bsky.social for taking the time to chat with me. ⭐

Revon, a disabled man wearing his brace and using his cane, stands under a spotlight with the words in large letters: HELP ME LEAVE MY ABUSIVE HOUSE! aka, my abusive mother is kicking me out. Please. HELP.
Revon, a disabled man wearing his brace and using his cane, stands under a spotlight with the words detailing his request with some words emphasized: I'm making a mutual aid request. I need help. My mother has issued me an eviction notice. I have to leave by April 1st, or she will kick me out with police force. She has threatened to do this a couple times. This time, I know she means it. I will be moving in with @CryptAesthetics, who has been made aware of every step of her abuse since it began. We're aiming to move out by the end of March, and I need assistance raising money to pay for first & last month's rent, plus movers for myself since most of my friends do not drive, but can help pack. Whatever else we make will help me puchase house essentials & mobility assistance, and help pay part of @CryptAesthetics first/last, too. We are looking to raise a minimum of 2000 CAD. 1500 for first/last on my part, 300 for movers, & 200 for a new mattress for myself. If you can help, please donate to my ko-fi: ko-fi.com/themythicbunny or my paypal, linked in the replies of this post. In the following image, I will be detailing the situation as it's unfolded, with the added notion that I do not have steady access to the kitchen, and thus haven't been able to keep or have food steadily since August, and must constantly order food, putting myself in debt to feed myself. I've saved up 200 the last two months by limiting food.
Revon, a disabled man wearing his brace and using his cane, stands under a spotlight with the words detailing his situation, with some words emphasized with different colour: In December 2023, I re-connected with my abusive mother who claimed to have changed and was 'doing better'. After a couple of months, I thought this change was permanent, and she made the offer to move in with her in April 2024, in my childhood home. This was my mistake. I trusted her, and put faith in her, hoping that the change she displayed was permanent. It was not. For the past two years, her treatment towards me has worsened significantly, especially these last several months. It turns out, just because someone doesn't beat you anymore, doesn't mean they've stopped being abusive altogether. She has completely iced me out while removing access to essentials such as access to the bathroom on the same floor my room is (I am disabled. I can't be constantly going up and down stairs. She forces me to do this anyways by locking the door every night), removed toilet paper handles, taken away essentials I helped purchase with my own money, financially abused and harassed me, gaslit me, has weaponized, discriminated, and mocked my mental and physical disabilities, because they 'made her life worse', threatened to keep me hostage in her house until I paid her back money that I owed her, and turned every single one of these situations into her being the victim. Now, she's misgendering me and actively insulting me and my siblings loudly on the phone and to friends, slamming doors, cussing and cursing about me when I'm home, and doing everything she can to scare me. It's working. I'm scared. And I need out.
‼️ URGENT MUTUAL AID REQUEST ‼️
Please help me move out safely. I'm being kicked out of my current living space. I need to be out by April 1st. The details are in the post. I need a min.of 2000 CAD. Ko-fi link here:

Seeing that a couple of people checked out Body of Work from their libraries is a huge career milestone for me!
I was on first name terms with the librarians at my childhood library, and getting my goopy audiobooks out wide is so important.

Hey friends, can I ask you all to give our @littleghostsbooks.bsky.social Crowdfundr a look? Any amount helps us with our workspace renovation plans, if you're not able (which I understand!), if you could share the link that would be amazing. Love you all! 🤗🧡 👻📚

Friends, if you have good news about your writing or art, we need to see that. The onslaught of political posting & rallying against fascism is important, but your happiness about your creative wins is part of what people are standing for. Don't let the bastards take that away from you.

Ultimately you're not supposed to believe it. It not mattering is the point. The bolder the lie, the greater the impunity. The ultimate victory for evil is not convincing you, it's the truth being irrelevant.
