You might be more than one. You might be different ones at different times. 🫶🏽🫶🏽 you might not be one of these. There are more roles 💪🏽 but this is an amazing intro.

You can’t just like the idea and envision yourself in one of these roles you have to figure out how to be about it ♥️🫶🏽

The Beauty 2 The Streetz nonprofit has asked that you send love and support to her family, loved ones, and the community she has fostered. The beauty2thestreetz Instagram and Tiktok [able to be found here on Linktree] are both worth supporting and spreading awareness of her mission.

Doing for self >

sorry if this is all over the place, my head is still pounding from yesterday but i tried my best to be coherent. this is the worst my situation has been in a long time. my father has a history of being violent and aggressive when he’s drunk, this time he went too far. i try not to get involved with anything involving my family, but last night i heard screaming from the kitchen and it sounded bad. my siblings and i all came to see what the commotion was just in time to see him swing a frying pan at my mother’s head. 

my youngest brother disappeared and me and my other brother tried to get in between our parents to stop it because my mother was already bleeding but he fought back against both of us, i don’t know what specifically happened to my brother but his face is all bruised and swollen and i got my head slammed against the wall multiple times. my phone ended up shattered on the ground broken beyond repair and i somehow got glass in my foot that i've since removed

idk if my younger brother called the cops or if the neighbors heard what was going on but they showed up, my father told them everything was fine even though several of us were bleeding and obviously not fine. my mother refused to say anything but my siblings and i spoke up and my father is now in jail. my mother told me that i shouldn’t have said anything, i’m a horrible influence, this is my fault as the oldest, i should’ve known better, and that i have until the new year to find somewhere else to live. i have three weeks to scrounge up enough change to try and survive in below freezing temperatures and i have no fucking clue what i’m going to do. 

i’ve reached out to a couple shelters to no avail and i don’t really have IRL friends who can help me. the only thing i can think of is my grandmother or extended family, but they all live 300 miles away and my parents sold my car without my permission so i can’t drive down there myself. i don’t know what to do. i’m so scared and i have nowhere to turn and i have less than a month to figure this out.

i’m going to reach out to my grandmother/family but if all else fails, the cheapest motel in my area is $45/night. i have $13 to my name at the moment. in the next few weeks, i need to secure a place to sleep at night, as well as transportation to get out and away from here, and at least a burner phone from the store, a flip phone will absolutely do and those are like $10-$30 i think. please PLEASE help me monetarily if you can, if not, you can also help just by boosting this post so more people see it. thank you for reading

This is Sam Nordquist. He was a transgender man who was lured to my hometown back in September by his Internet girlfriend. She and four other individuals then proceeded to torture and kill him, leaving his body in a field. I'm absolutely gutted. The misunderstanding for the trans community that leads to this sort of hatred is something that I just will never understand. I'm so sorry, Sam. You deserved so much more than this.

If you are able, please donate and share the GoFundMe set up by his sister. She and Sam's mom have made it to New York, but now they will have to go through the horrible process of arranging his funeral and transporting his body back home.

It turns out that despite paying 1000$ to my partner (who is currently unemployed) over the course of February, we still owe the full 1600 and are now ten days late. I found out from a notice slipped under my door yesterday.

I'm sick to my stomach and angry and feel taken advantage of.

If anyone can help, even it's it's pocket change, I will do whatever I can to make it up to you.

I get paid 450 at the end of the week and another 650 friday of next week, but if I want to avoid owing over 3grand on April 1st I'm going to need help or a miracle

I'm so sorry

3100/3200 for April 1st factoring in what I'll be paid this week, I'll keep the count updated throughout the month

Thankyou so fucking much to everyone that has helped, overdue should be processed and paid by tomorrow
