If anyone is able, please help a queer, disabled household pay our bills? (Ko-fi link)
The world is very hard for us while two out of the three of us are waiting for disability and any help would be appreciated.
I have been planning on streaming video games on twitch on Saturday nights at 7pm EST. We will be starting on February 1st and a poll has decided that we will start with Persona 5 Royal.
I am also working on recording myself reading banned books, so if you're interested in that, let me know! I also write fanfiction and am willing to write for prompts!
I'm hoping building community will help makes things easier in the next four years, so here's a start.
Have a picture I took last night of my sister's cat, Alyoshka!

Don't forget, Trump was the one who tried to ban TikTok in his first term, and Republicans voted to pass the TikTok Ban Bill.
He didn't save it. He just flipflopped when he realised it made him look bad with young people.
And now TikTok are sucking up to Trump and effectively acting as an ad section for him.
Don't fall for it.
To quote my mother, who grew up under a dictator:
"Dictatorships are born in whispers."
Pay attention to every bill or executive order. Don't ask how it'll benefit the country. Ask how it'll benefit the one trying to get it passed. You'll start noticing the whispers.
To those who say, "Stop reading between the lines." No. Always read between the lines. Never take a politician at face value. This goes for all politicians regardless of party.
Look at their history, listen to their words, and ask yourself, "How is this benefiting them?"
As of Jan 21st, 2025, a full copy of the constitution is no longer available on whitehouse.gov. I feel like this is a good time to remind everyone that the biggest threat to authoritarianism and facism is a well educated and informed population. Inform yourself and fight.
a copy of the document can still be found on the archives website. I think now is probably a good time to read it if you haven't and download it, incase it is erased from here as well.

I cannot stress enough to you that all American government agencies are falling apart at the seams right now and they will not be put back together for the foreseeable future. EPA DHS ED VA FDA NIH IRS CDC HHS NPS etc... Elon Musk is dismantling everything. Anyone who resigns or is laid off now, the word we (I am an agency employee) are receiving internally is that their position will be abolished, not backfilled.
Do you like eating clean, safe food?
Do you like having clean, safe air and water?
Do you want experts monitoring developing infectious diseases?
Do you like getting tax returns?
Do you want your children to have free, quality, public education?
If so, you need to write to your senators and representatives RIGHT NOW. Trump is not obeying the rule of law. He is illegally firing all the inspectors general of these agencies (they are literally being escorted by security out of their offices) so that there is no one left to stop him from doing quite literally anything he wants. He has bypassed the internal structure of all of the agencies by plugging in external email servers to push typo-filled emails and memos written by employees of the heritage foundation directly into the inbox of every federal agency employee in the country, threatening to terminate them.
The rule of law is dead. The only mechanism left to stop any of this is mass public outcry via convincing your state's congressmen & women to do something, because right now they are staying absolutely silent and none of us in these agencies can figure out why. A massacre is happening right now and every single American will feel the material, concrete consequences of this in their daily lives very soon if nothing is done.
Please help me boost this information.
Okay, so my sisters and I are already struggling to pay bills but one of our roommates is about to get us kicked out.
If anybody can help at all, here's our ko-fi and here's my cash app.
We (myself and my sisters) have a place to go for a little bit, but it'll be a tight fit until we can find another apartment.
I'm still planning on streaming on Saturdays. It'll still be Persona 5 Royal at 7pm EST.
I also have fanfiction available to read on AO3 and will gladly take prompts.
Seriously, we're struggling a lot and my sister still needs a service dog for her seizures. (But we were given a wheelchair for her that isn't broken!)
If you are a mentally ill person who struggles with violent urges, impulse control, disassociation, anger control, psychosis, or other stigmatized and demonized conditions you are so fucking important and you matter and your needs matter and you deserve better
Can we stop using "still lives with their parents" or "unemployed" or "doesn't have a drivers license" or "didn't graduate high school" as an insult or evidence that someone is a bad person? Struggling with independence or meeting milestones is not a moral failing.
You can buy the books here.
Support me on Patreon or buy me a coffee?
Reposting this from a friend bc I think it is VERY important to know of this, and for immigrants, and other possible victims of the ICE Raids happening right now
