URGENT: LOSING HOUSING

i'm losing access to my housing on the 29th of may, and i'm trying to gather funds to make it over to my friend in portland that has a place for me to stay.

i've got my plane ticket for the 5th of june, i need to secure funds for the storage container payment for the month by the 29th, and i need to have enough to take an uber from the airport to my friend's as soon as possible.

the storage container is 150 dollars, and the uber can range from 40-60 dollars. that needs to be secured as soon as possible.

the most direct way to help me with that is through my p@yp@l and vnmo, both are linked, and $chxseallen. gofundme takes a percentage and is a slower disbursement.

i also need to cover costs of living while i'm still working on getting a job and place, for things like food, transit, medication and appointment co-pays, and other general essentials. the gofundme to assist in that is below:

please share if you can, that would help a lot.

Terrified to post about my job on here bc tumblr's complete lack of critical thinking skills will declare me as Problematic™️ for defending parents from CPS aka "joining the war on pedophiles on the side of pedophiles" HOWEVER I am going to say some things that are Controversial Yet Brave

Everyone is deserving of legal representation

It is my job to fight for my clients no matter how offensive their views or how much they suck

This is a GOOD THING because it means that YOU will get zealous representation even if your PD hates you

No matter how hard I try I will never get a child returned home to their pedophile father i'm not a fucking wizard

Do you know how hard it is to get a registered sex offender into housing that will let HIS children live with him but not any other children he's not allowed to be around????

This is, by the way, BAD.

Housing should be a human right

All humans

Yes, including people you personally believe are Bad

Perhaps this structure you have created in your head founded on the sheer hubris of you believing you personally are the true arbiter of moral purity and who deserves to be in society is what has contributed to mass incarceration in the first place?????

Fighting for the rights of the most unsympathetic people is how we guarantee rights for everyone

I guess this amounts to an panic attack but I seriously want to kill myself. I'm almost positive my lease is going to be terminated. The house is trashed. I have no way of fixing the chewed carpet or cleaning effectively because I have a year's worth of urine soaked laundry everywhere. I've spent so much money, been scammed over and over and I still can't do a fucking load of laundry. The washing machine pours water out of the bottom and the dryer doesn't spin.

I will never get someone else to rent to me. I won't be able to gather enough for a new place. I can't get enough to pay rent now even though this month is practically over. I'll have to surrender all my pets to shelters.

I cannot access any resources. I've languished on waiting lists and done all the applications and services promised never come.

People try to be helpful with information about eviction but it's like I'm drowning and they're describing the fucking water. They don't understand if I lose my housing again I will kill myself. There will be absolutely no reason to keep living.

The elevator in my ADA “accessible” building is broken. It has been for days. No word on when it’ll be fixed.

The fire alarms just went off, briefly, then stopped. There is no evacuation plan. Today is a bad pain day, it’s raining and I had to go grocery shopping (including going up and down some steps) with my in home care worker earlier. I could maybe get to and down the stairs by myself. Maybe. I don’t know if I could get my partner’s cat out with me (I would do my damn best though).

I have neighbors who also are wheelchair users, some who are in heavy powerchairs who live on the upper floors. Me and those neighbors haven’t spoken much outside of basic pleasantries by the mailboxes over the years— I think we’re all housebound. We are effectively strangers but we have shared cries for help. I know their screams and they know mine. Intimate terror.

The alarms have stopped and as of right now I am safe. My neighbors are safe.

I’m focusing on trying to catch my breath and lower my heart rate back to a safe range. I can’t stress enough how traumatic it is to be disabled in an inaccessible world.

It's true, we shouldn't tolerate violence. Allowing people to suffer and die for the sake of profits is unacceptable and should never be tolerated.

If anyone wants to/can help a struggling disabled lgbtq+ family in the US rn that's facing near homelessness and food insecurity, please reach out.

I hate asking for anything, I've always managed to find a way before, somehow. My job starts tomorrow, thankfully, but until my check starts coming in, I won't even have gas money to get to work. I've been working around 50 hours a week on instacart this past month and barely scraped up enough for our lot rent, but we have no food/gas/car payment money. And while my new job is incredibly helpful, it also means I can no longer put in anywhere near enough hours on instacart to make it very helpful anymore.

I know it's a bad time for everyone, and someone always has it worse. But I escaped my abusive family a couple years ago when they threatened to murder me for being gay and trans, and now that I have parts of my life that make me want to stay alive (for the first time in my memory, I'm not actually suicidal) it's all just getting ripped away.

I have some shred of hope that if we can survive the next couple months to get on our feet again, we will be able to pull through this.

I am a digital artist, though I don't have a largely varied portfolio yet. I would be happy to try to get some art commissions going if anyone is interested. I predominantly draw horses and other animals (mostly farm livestock, but I'm open to anything!), and I love doing memorial portraits or art of pets. I make sure to get markings as exact as possible, as well as try to capture personality through expression. I have a small selection of my art posted here as examples, but they're all in my more realistic detailed style. I can provide more examples if there's something specific you're looking for. Also open to NSFW art, depending on contexts. I also have limited furry art experience (just no examples saved currently to this device).

I also knit (things like beanies, scarves, and pet sweaters, mostly), and I have a Bachelors in English if anyone needs any freelance work right now.

This post doesn't look like I have an English degree, but I am tired and stressed rn and don't have the spoons to make it nicer right now. I'll try to make something nicer and more official soon, if I'm able.

Even if you can't help yourself, please feel free to share, or positive or helpful comments are also welcomed. Please DM me if you'd like my venmo or PayPal if you are able to help, it's attached to my name so I prefer to not post publically.

Free Feminine Clothing Available

I’ve been going through my clothes (again) and I was thinking instead of giving them to Goodwill so they can be sold it would be nice to find someone who could actually benefit from them.

So if any transfemme people want a bunch of feminine clothing feel free to DM me, I have stuff in a range of sizes but mostly M-L and I’d be happy to send someone pictures of some of it if they are interested. Clothes include pajamas, crop tops, skirts, dresses, jewelry (nothing valuable), cropped sweatshirts, bralettes etc.

Also I specifically mentioned trans people but this could be for anyone who needs clothes and can’t afford them otherwise for any reason. I’m not trying to make money off of it so if anyone is interested I’d only ask them to cover shipping as I can’t afford to pay it.

Please help us afford to leave this pest ridden Airbnb and find emergency short term hotels or housing. I don't have a goal in mind yet, but we'll need at least $2,500 to afford a month long stay. We leave on September 16th.

It would be cheaper for the government to buy every homeless person a cheap apartment than it is to continue the status quo of underfunding homeless shelters and homelessness support programs that toss people around different shelters every few weeks for years until they either die of a drug overdose or accept homelessness as normal and sleep on the street for the rest of their lives while they slowly lose their sanity.

IT WOULD BE CHEAPER FOR THE GOVERNMENT TO END HOMELESSNESS THAN TO KEEP PEOPLE HOMELESS.

Please don’t send me DMs asking for donations

I feel bad that I have to turn down messages that are asking for help from Gaza, especially if it’s a vetted campaign that is legit. But I literally don’t have any food in my fridge, I haven’t eaten more than some canned chickpeas in over two days, I really cannot help. I live below the poverty line, so please, don’t send me requests for money. If you would like me to reblog a post for a legit and vetted fundraiser, I’m more than willing to do that. But I can’t even find a food bank that has the capacity to help me, so I most definitely don’t have the ability to donate to every online request I get. I’m sorry, but I’ve lived in poverty my whole life, I really am not the person that is able to help anyone monetarily. Any other way, yes, but donations unfortunately I am not able to do.

If I weren't so sick I'd be freaking out about how I'll pay rent but all I care about is getting a coke. I've been nauseated and you knowing all weekend. Why is everything so hard, and scary, and miserable. I don't think I have anything left. I want to cared for and instead I'm so painfully alone. There's nothing dependable in my life. I'm so fearful of the next awful thing that I'd rather be dead than weight to see.
