“Freedom always has a price.”

her name was Marsha P Johnson, and we have her to thank for so much.

remember, the first Pride was a riot, and she was one of the brave souls who endured it to help carve the path which so many of us walk today. she helped found several activist groups regarding LGBT safety and wellbeing. and she was absolutely radiant, too.

(post going more in-depth)

it's official- we've missed rent for a second month in a row now, and the expenses keep piling on. the car, my girlfriend's computer, our bills...

but most pressing of all, my teeth. aggressive infection that's rotting them away day by day. in a month i doubt i'll even have any gums left. one of my teeth has started breaking apart, little chunks of it falling out of my mouth. it hurts.

the total for all the work i need is $3292. we're also $2360 behind on rent. $5652 total.

my girlfriend is working lots of overtime, but to pay these bills and make rent next month, she'd need to work about 130 hours a week, without food or gas for the car, nonstop all month.

the most pressing matters are the gum cleaning (still furious that insurance won't let me do it all on the same day), which is mercifully only $60 total, and the root canal/crown for tooth 30 (1st molar right side), AKA the tooth that's falling apart. $1997 for that. payment required up front.

at this point some new bullshit comes up every day. we began to have hope after my girlfriend started her job, but it's being dashed at every turn now. please, please help us. we're doing everything we can. please reblog, and if you can, please donate. thank you. i'm sorry.

The Sunset Tree turns 20 this week. can’t believe i’ve been listening to The Sunset Tree for 20yrs!
