my partner and I are both multiply disabled (mental + physical, we rly won huh) trans queers and we RLY need help moving out!!! we are finally probably ACTUALLY close to getting a spot this time? I've had like 6 places either bail on me or deny me after weeks of stringing me along so who knows. I truly hope, it seems more promising than ever idk!!

more lore below the cut V I am so sorry and I am So tired of this situation

we've been staying with a friend of mine for several months and things have spiraled to the point I'm not sure I consider this person a friend anymore tbh. we've both been trying to communicate our needs and abilities from the beginning but we r not listened to, constantly disregarded, and then told our breakdowns bc of this are disruptive. lol

we have a housing voucher that we've been trying to use all this time but it's been really hard to find a place bc we don't have rental history or any family to back us up financially so even with full down payment in hand we've been getting turned down a lot. my girlfriend's savings from when she was able to work are dwindling fast bc it's all we've had to live on and pay for app fees with (my care team is supposed to be helping w this but they've been negligent of me since I started working w them) and we don't have a lot of furniture we need, as well as needing to get basics like dish soap and laundry expenses etc bc we also haven't really been able to do our laundry here! ough!

so basically the money would go towards first month's rent (we already paid the deposit TwT) getting furniture and household stuff we need, a desperately-needed trip to the laundromat, and anything else like that which would come up! I'm also working on an amazon wishlist for the practical stuff we need, blessedly I still have my mop and broom as they were unaffected by the infestation but other things like my microwave were not spared... ALSO FUCK WE NEED SOME BOXES!! we're gonna hit up a liquor store today but idk we'll see!

Sorry guys, I guess FAFSA, Section 8, SNAP, Medicaid and more are just not going to be a thing anymore because I, a trans person, have used these programs before. And got my tranny hands all over it.

Fuck...

I'm so scared and angry right now... at least a few of these apply to me. I'm from a *normally* blue state... that turned red this last election... my Governor is Democrat and so I'm hoping that, that can at least cushion this blow.... I'm so scared... I feel sick... so sick... I'm so mad at those who voted for that orange colored monster. So fucking mad. I was scared before because of things that started on the first day... and now this... fuck...

Disabled, Escaping an Abusive Environment

My dear friend is in need of $2,000 to secure housing!

Her name is Cha-Le, she’s 25 years old, she has lived with Spina Bifida and a Chiari malformation since birth and she is currently trying to secure housing to escape a physically and mentally toxic environment.

She's previously been approved by Section 8, but the problem is they don’t help with any fees, deposits, or any move-related expenses. So even when she gets her voucher, she doesn't have the money to actually sign a lease.

She's currently back on the waiting list, which can take several months to get back to the front, so we need to be prepared when it's her turn again.

Even a few dollars will help, and even if you can't donate, please signal boost!

Tommy Monaghan, Hitman.

Man, I miss this series so much! I wish DC would re-release the trade paperbacks so I could read it all again without having to haul all the issues out of storage.

If you've never read this series you owe it to yourself to try it out. This is Garth Ennis pre-The Boys, but it's just as outrageous, hilarious, and heartfelt, even if it was restrained by DC editorial oversight.

Plus, this is the comic that introduced the greatest superteam in comic book history - Section 8!

I don't want to be at work anymore. And I hate how people don't just tell you information that would help you when they know about it. I used to be in a section 8 apartment, but just found out that if I told the landlady that I wanted to buy a house, then part of my rent would've went to a fund for the house buying. That should either happen automatically or they should ask in plain language if you want them to do it, not leave it in the long paperwork for you to find if you can.

There's a guy on tiktok who's whole thing is telling people how to make thousands per month off of people in section 8 housing. And if that doesn't sound bad enough, let me give examples. He charges them a fee each month to "rent" their ceiling fans. Aka he doesn't allow them to install others, and they have to pay to run the ones already there. The same with any appliance he deems "luxury".

Honestly it's like... super villain level horrible. I thought it had to be satire. It's literally illegal to do that btw. So people have been mass reporting him and I think there's an investigation open on him.

I just can't stop thinking about it.
