Tetraethyl

For those who may not know, I still live with my parents (and our many cats) in poverty. My dad works a factory job that pays ridiculously low wages, mistreats their workers, and myself and my mom can't work a "regular" job due to disabilities (hers physical, mine mental). I am trans and living in a very very maga-colored town, so I don't leave my house much unless it's for dr appointments, and I can't drive. I try to do commission work, but I have a backlog, cannot work fast enough, and haven't been getting much work lately due to AI and what have you.

Recently, our fridge has partially broke. Only the freezer works, so we can only store frozen food, and it's been too hot to cook in the summer since our electrical situation requires us to turn off all ac to even run an air fryer. So, we've had to rely on bread and fast food. On top of that, living in a very small town with only 1 grocery store makes it so they can crank up the prices with no consequence. Everyone here is too poor to do anything about any of this. Fast food has been cheaper and more filling for the last few months. If we had any other way of living, we would be living it. We have been barely able to eat once every other day.

So, I have to throw out the ask to anyone who sees this; if you are able, and enjoy my art, please at least give a reblog. I appreciate any and all help so much.
