hey hey!! its been a while since I've had to make one of these (for which I'm very grateful) but here goes! I'm Val, a black trans DJ, visual artist and writer living in London, and I'm asking for some help

basically, I've been houseless/in precarious living for the past few months and am finally in a stable living situation, with people I love and trust :D — unfortunately work has been anything but steady the past few months and my work computer's been out of commission for the past two months awaiting repairs which I can't afford. I have my first proper rent payment coming up end of the month which is also a big stress bc of convoluted benefits bureaucracy & stuff, but anyways, I'm really in need of funds at the minute to get to a place of stability where I am safe and able to do/make the things that make me happy. thank you sm for reading this far, lots of love <33333³

tl;dr i'm finally not houseless, which owns, but work stability has fallen thru massively, which sucks, I need to fix my computer (£150) so I can make more work and pay rent (£450) so I can keep living in my house and would appreciate any and all help in doing those things [:
