I have had to make so many of these posts this year...

Yeah, I desperately need help with money again. It's not as insane as last month, but it's still... not great. The bullet points:

  • I haven't worked at my regular job since February
  • my current employer approved my medical leave but the state keeps giving me the runaround with paperwork regarding getting any money while I'm out of work
  • I get $25 a week from my current employer - I don't see a single penny because it all goes to taxes before it hits my account
  • I DoorDash as much as I can, but it barely pays for its own gas let alone bills, and I'm so burnt out every single day
  • I am actively applying for (less physical) jobs but because of my lack of office experience I'm either not getting a response at all or I'm getting rejected after one or two interviews
  • I have an appointment with my cardiologist tomorrow, hopefully I will have a clearer timeline than what I've had so far
  • currently I am not returning to work until the last week of June, but that will most likely change and I'm terrified it's going to be later than that
  • my regular bank account is -$400, the bank account that pays our rent is at ~$400 including what Kit sent me for her half of rent, aka... all of the money in that account is Not Mine
  • the first ~$400 will go toward paying rent this month, everything else will go toward getting my other account out of the red again and gas

How you can help:

part of my job as archivist for a LGBTQ center involves working with an interviewing elder queers, and the disconnect between our generation and theirs is so upsettingly palpable. so many young queers think that elders aren't up-to-date on identity politics and are "set in their ways" when it comes to understanding the nuances of gender and sexuality, but that is so incredibly far from the truth.

if anything, the real problem is in the reverse. young queers aren't giving the time of day to our elders and its only alienating all of us from our shared history. just about every elder I've spoken to is doing their best to understand how our identity politics have evolved and is actively supportive of our generation adding our language and experiences to our sprawling rainbow tapestry.

there is also this strange idea that elder queers no longer contribute to that tapestry, that their time is gone and its only the youth making progress. but again, that prevailing idea is just alienating our generations from one another. most elders I've spoken to are extremely active in the community and work hard to do what they can to preserve our histories and assist in current activism.

the fact of the matter is that we are losing our elders, both to time and estrangement, and it is critical that we make conscious efforts to bridge the gap before its too late.

TLDR: We have to do better when it comes to including queer elders in our current activism. They are our history, they are our family, and we need to give them the same love they give to us.

For some reason the terfs found this post so this is me firing gunshots into the air. This post is not safe for you. Terfs are tar pits and community killers and there is no room for them in my activism.

When Kim Burgess decided enough was enough and she got off the tour bus at a truck stop in Idaho, she was positive she’d blown any chance of a career in music. Objectively, it was a stupid decision. Subjectively, not spending another minute around her ex boyfriend who kept trying to get into her pants was a good idea.
It was pure luck that Mouse had business meetings about his new wonder app in Seattle, that a call to her Mom telling her she needed help meant that he was on the way in minutes. The six hour drive took him around five, the woman running the truck stop canteen waving away men until Kim latched onto her big brother with a tight hug and a murmur to just take her home.

I highly encourage taking a painkiller after dinner and crashing for 12 hours because holy shit that sleep.

During the construction of a new store in Dublin in 2013, the crew discovered the ruins of a historic Viking well dating back to the 11th century. This discovery sparked excitement in the archaeological community. The well is a significant find as it provides a glimpse into the Viking era and the history of Dublin. It's a testament to the city's rich past and the Viking influence on its development. The well is now preserved and can be viewed through a glass section of the floor in the store, offering shoppers a unique glimpse into the city's Viking history.
