update on my housing situation ~

With the end of summer swift approaching, I've been looking forward hopefully to moving in with a relative who lives about an hour away. I would've been able to transfer to a nearby Walmart, and my expenses for rent would be less than half of the cost of what I'm paying to stay at budget motels. Those plans are delayed indefinitely as, fortunately for her, she's had some relief for the osteoarthritis pain she suffers and has returned to work full-time. For now, she can manage her mortgage without needing additional income from renting to me (although she's unable to maintain her property, clean or even vacuum, which would've been my responsibilities). She also wants to keep her spare room available for her daughter, who's been having trouble meeting her rent for an apartment she shares with her boyfriend in the Bronx. As a result, I remain homeless...for now.

so I'm gonna have to ask for help again...

I've gotten through August better than usual; I'm glad to share that it's been over a month since I've needed to make a post like this. However, between my continued cut in hours (even as the service desk remains chronically understaffed) and a hike of about 20% in local room rates (I usually save about 15%/night by paying weekly), I'm in need of help. I'd like to try to raise $450 - &500 for the month of September, with my immediate need of $200 to manage next week's lodging. As ever, I know that I've been very blessed to receive the friendship and generosity of this community, and I send out my heartfelt gratitude for donations of any size, and to those who reblog this to help boost my plea. Thank you for any manner of help you can provide!

$0/$200

Hey everyone, this is a different post than I'd normally make, but I've been dealing with urgent hardship, poverty, and food/housing instability, and it's escalated to the point where I am desperate for mutual aid support.

Ko-Fi here: https://ko-fi.com/jest_er

I am also able to take ca/shapp or ven/mo, please DM for those. Donors can ask for art with some kind of proof, I'm just unsure when I can get to those. Please understand that my situation is not stable atm.

It's hard to admit this stuff publicly, but while I've been able to scrape by for 6+ months on my own, my situation keeps worsening. I'm really sorry to ask for help, I've always been a private person who wanted to avoid asking online, but I've finally hit a point where I don't have many options. While I'm still in contact with family, I don't have monetary support from them & am hoping for a miracle to get through this.

It's hard to be so up front with what my situation has been like, but up until about a month ago I was struggling with enough money to afford food for at least one meal a day. I skipped multiple days every week to ensure that I didn't run out of food, and have regularly emptied my fridge/pantry to the limits before I allowed myself to spend meager amounts on enough to sustain me. Things are still shaky in that department for me, but manageable. However spending so much out of pocket on food has led to me struggling to afford basic necessities. Running out of things like trash bags, toothpaste, shampoo, etc. is a nightmare, and leads to expenses that I just can't deal with. I'm facing housing insecurity and am really just at a wall where I dont know what to fucking do. Anything helps and I really really mean it.

NEED HELP WITH CAR REPAIRS + BILLS + TRANSPORTATION!

PAYPAL | AMAZON WISHLIST | KOFI | GOFUNDME |PATREON | HOLIDAY WISHES LIST @ DREAMWIDTH

11/21/24 - Edited Post!

So we wracked up a $765 bill from our mover that, bless him, he's letting me pay off when I get he money. I also have car repairs (there's a few different things wrong with the car so we're aiming for $3000 to cover everything) and I'm in debt to PayPal by almost $600. I am also almost $1100 overdrawn due to loan payments and overdraft fees, so any help paying that down would be amazing.

We also have regular bills to cover, and while the medical taxis our insurance gets for us pick us up on time, we usually wait an hour or two to get home, which my mother absolutely cannot do if there's no place to sit, so I'd like to have money for Ubers to get us home from doctor appointments. I also need Ubers for shopping and taking care of non-medical stuff.

Any help at all would be utterly amazing. Reblogs are also much appreciated!

$347/$6000

EDIT 1: My mom now owes PayPal $250 so until I can pay it I won't be able to receive any donations. We still need help with groceries and paying the movers, though, so please help us cover the debt?

EDIT 2: Thank you to everyone who helped me get the laundry supplies! For the moment, I have enough to finish the rest of the laundry that we brought over, but we still need the wet vac to keep our floors clean, if anyone would be able to help with that.

One of my best friends is in a medical emergency and needs help paying for a liver transplant/other medical expenses!!!

@lilmisspunchingbag / @ask-swagger-dagger-trolls Is very sick and cannot pay her medical bills. She has been suffering from cirrhosis of the liver for months and has been trying to acquire medical aid and disability aid to no avail. Last night her kidneys started failing and tonight she was put on dialysis. Asking people for money is her last resort. Here is her donation link She's a very very dear friend to me, so I'm doing all that I can do by managing and spreading this around. I understand if not a lot of you are able to donate anything considering all of the wars, natural disasters, and personal matters going on at the moment. But even as little as a dollar will help. And if you aren't able to give anything, you can help us by spreading her donation link around. I love you all. And I hope you have a good rest of your day.

This is my beautiful guy Spy Boy, also known as Commodore SpyBoy captain of the SS TinyMan. He is my best friend, my soulmate.

Yesterday, we had to rush him to the emergency vet, where they found he has pancreatitis and diabetes.

The emergency vet had us rush him to an emergency pet hospital, where he's spending the next few days.

They think he's going to be okay, but he'll need insulin and a special diet for the rest of his life.

The emergency vet visit was $1500, including all the tests. And the hospital gave us an estimate of between $4000 and $8000. My husband was laid off last week. I'm disabled and can't work. We desperately need assistance. I'm going to put together a gofundme as soon as I can stop crying. My Venmo is @GwyndynAlexander I'm a tiny blog with very few followers. Please, if you see this, reblog... I'm so worried about my little guy.

[peculiar-persephone]

I don't know if anyone is actually gonna see this, but I've recently become homeless (I'm queer and disabled) and I'm going through a lot right now and I could really use some help. I know everyone is struggling right now, but if anyone is able to share this I would really appreciate it. There's more info about my whole situation in the link.

This stomach pain is really eating me up. I hope the colonoscopy will shed light on things but the prep is making me shaky and weak (add it to the list of things making me sweat). I know there's the element of spirit where my sense of self is growing. When I think of my old names I feel the pain there. I'm healing thru it. It hurts. I know the stress from caring for mom makes it worse. I know the fear of thinly veiled threats. There's so much I need to do. I have plans. But most importantl, I need to lie down and try to rest so that the flare doesnt get worse.

I have $50 worth of bills each month. trying to secure meals (I have low mobility/energy when I have a flare so I need to order delivery), and I'm also trying to save for travel to a safer place $500

So far I've only raised $3 but it def helped.

If you have the spoons to boost it or the funds to support me with my basic needs and help me afford to live.

don't want to ask again, but must due to a financial setback...

I've delayed this all week because it physically pains me to do this again so soon, but the need to buy food and pay for gas, plus renewing my driver's license (it cost me $65 more than I budgeted for) have forced my hand. My work hours are still being cut, so far through the end of July. So, I have to try to raise $150 by this weekend to keep my room another week (we're currently in a 90+ degrees heatwave again). I'm exploring a couple of other options but in the meantime, anything I can raise towards that goal would be heaven sent. My deepest thanks go to anyone that can help in any way - and to everyone who continues to bear with me for the necessity of this plea.

Please share! We all know how expensive top-surgery is, but it's also the most important thing to trans-masc folks. It's the biggest dysphoria killer. If you can't donate, please share and spread the link. It makes a big difference! Thanks!

Get this man out of my head NOW!!!

Great animation practice at least-

Hopefullyyy tumblr isn't compressing it toooo badly.

vvv Goodie and yapping below!!! vvv

I really should be focusing on my assignments but ah yes, it twas a good idea to animate the goober stuck in my head.

Essentially, this drawing has been stuck in my head and I found the perfect songs that matches this mf so well. The voices.... They chain me down.

This took way longer than it should have v_v

Take this early snippet of the silly hitting himself as a consolation. It's either going to be a while before I post this man, or in general, again or it is going to be often if he won't LEAVE MY HOUSE (mind)

So we were (thankfully) able to cover most of the charges that came out on the first and pay our storage units. We have two more loan payments coming out on the 10th but I'm not as worried about those as I am the larger loans I have. I make $1200 a month, and I might be able to get help with the two I just made payments on, but the loan I have to make the first payment for on August 3rd is $550, and that's going to wipe me out and I have to have $1000 saved by August 18th to more into temporary (but more stable) housing.

I probably will continue to pay one of the two smaller loans if I can pay one of them off, or pay the largest loan if I can pay the smaller two off, but either way I want to make payments on them to knock what I owe down/pay them off completely, so any help at all would be utterly amazing. And any help raising the $1000 for housing in August would be much appreciated.

EDIT: You guys. We might have an apartment soon! I got an email Friday afternoon from one of the complexes we were waitlisted at, and they want us to come in and do the move in packet. I need to come up with $75 for the application fees, plus $525 for my mom's current overdraft/Speedy Cash loan payment and $445 for my current overdraft/Speedy Cash loan payment, and I need to knock down at least the two smaller loans, but yeah. I am so excited!

$585/$3500

EDIT 2: My daughter just got diagnosed with Covid. Her symptoms are pretty mild, thankfully, and she's on Paxlovid for it, but yeah. We need ideas for getting stuff for her to eat since her throat hurts so much and my food stamps card has disappeared (I have yogurt smoothies and bottled water, and she can suck on cold applesauce packets, but that will only last until Thursday), and any help I can get covering overdrafts and the loan payments on the 10th would be much appreciated as well so I can get us food while i wait for my replacement card.
