Alistair: We won? We did? Yaaaay, we won… (The last “yay” is while suddenly feeling woozy and in pain – he just got up from nearly dying | EXPLORE HEAL ME)

if you would like to spite the really mean people even more today, consider donating to raices con voz. they're a student-led organization in los angeles, who deliver food and essential supplies to immigrant families who can't leave their homes due to the ICE raids. More information about them here

in keeping with tradition, here is a link to unicef's fund for emergency health supplies and services for survivors of the venezuela earthquakes.

here is another link for manos in action, an organization that delivers supplies, such as food and childcare items, to latin american immigrants in central florida. I've participated in one of their local food drives; they're great. if you're not local to central florida, you can always donate money.

–or how I envision the Berlin live show situation came about

we paid off the $3,138 amount to not get evicted. then we were told it was actually $3,200, because of late fees. the total we owed before we paid off was $4,204. so, as of the ledger we'd requested (posted under the readmore), we still owe $1,066 as of june 1st. it's now the 9th so we have an additional $10 late fee. our lease is changing to a month to month, and as is common in this city, rent increases with every renewal to the maximum allowed percentage, so our new monthly rent is going to be $1,097.

still on the sisyphean treadmill of owed rent, while being overwhelmed with other bills, and still jobless. any help to keep us from being immediately thrust back into the eviction danger zone again would be a life saver.

amount still owed ($1,066) + june late fee ($10) + new increased monthly rent for july ($1,097)

ideally before july 7, to avoid late fees piling on again, please.

i don't like to share so much but we're still very much struggling and complications keep coming up and we still need help:

my wife's been running into issues with job onboarding, they're demanding physical copies of things so it will take at least another two weeks to get everything in the mail. this is the only job thus far that has been communicative and wants to hire her. we don't have the means to challenge this and we are looking for other jobs in the meantime.

it's been really stressful and despite living in a 'progressive' city, i have reason to believe that other jobs being unresponsive or wishy washy about hiring my wife is because she's trans. no other person i know with a resume and job history like hers has had this much difficulty getting a food service or related job, unless they're also a trans woman.

we have several bills coming up and need groceries and things to help with the heat waves. i have POTS and other chronic illnesses and i get very very sick in the summer and i just cannot risk urgent care or ER visits. these essential expenses don't stop just because we're behind on rent, and we're quickly being pulled back under. i'm worried we're just going to end up dealing with another eviction notice next month.

appreciate whatever help we can get before late fees hit after the 7th. hope everyone's had a safe pride month, much love for the upcoming disability pride month as well <3

It's pride month, and I should be a year on Estrogen by now but I haven't been able to take HRT in nine months because I lost health insurance when I lost my job. We need help to get back on our feet and to get into a larger apartment we can both fit comfortably in.
