Here's where I’m at with the disability process. This is the tracker from the SSA website. I’m in the most difficult part of this process because I’m also close to extinguishing my unemployment benefits. And that’s not much to begin with, just a little under $225 a week. 🧵 #mutualaidrequest
Hey folks - I’m at the end of the month and need to ask for help with rent again. Still looking for work, and I’m on a razor’s edge with my landlord after being so far in the hole. If there’s any way you can help us out, I could really use the assistance.

Hello there! This is my face! I’m starting to feel a little more like myself again. However, I’m in a crappy situation since I haven’t gotten my unemployment benefits yet and my rent and car payments are still due. Right now I need about $1000 to get back above water. Link below. #mutualaid

Take one nervous newbie LT, one PO who's a master of her job, & one commander who has to wrangle both of them - mix in a grudge match of a sports competition and a dangerous drug mystery for the #NeoG adventure that's been called "queer AF" "competence porn" & "found family fun."
100% this! 🤣💛
I'm in a really bad place right now physically, mentally and financially. My rent is late, bills are due, and I'm barely able to sit upright today. Please share this post and help out if you can. gofund.me/e0640a1e
Unless the compromise is we get to live our damn lives and transphobes can fuck off I don't see what there is to discuss.
Morning neighbors!

I write queer space operas, talk about politics, cats, video games, & whatever else my brain latches onto. Give me a follow (you can always change your mind later)
Drizzt has joined his siblings in the afterlife, and I am bereft.
Tomorrow is my last day at city hall! I've worked there since the end of 2015, so nearly a decade. I'm not sure what happens next, but I am absolutely sure I'm making the right move.
I've made an update that I wish I didn't need to make. Please check it out, donate and share.

I know that feeling! I looked like an electrocuted raccoon during that period.
The local election didn't go the way I hoped. This may be the beginning of the end for the things I do for this town.
