fleein the south part II
hi, i'm ri & i'm an autistic nonbinary trans guy-lite-ish person. 4 years ago i moved out to denver from mississippi (where i was born & raised) & immediately had a massive improvement in my quality of life. i was able to access medical & psychiatric care, my career stabilized, people were addressin me with correct terms for the most part, & i was startin to feel like life had finally begun
unfortunately when the lease ran out on our house end of summer last year my roommates decided not to renew, & then the people who were gonna be my new roommates backed out last minute. in a panic i looked for other options but with time runnin short & top surgery approachin i decided to recover at a friend's house & move back to mississippi once my surgeon cleared me to travel cross country so i could regroup somewhere i figured would be less expensive & at least somewhat familiar
that, friends, was a very costly & painful mistake! every single problem that made me wanna move away in the first place has only exacerbated!
i'm comin up on 8 months post top surgery, i have a beard, & i'm still gettin called ma'am/she/her. trump flags & signs still adorn many yards/porches here. hatred & bigotry run rampant in local politics. the other day i didn't even enter one of the convenience stores in the town where i live when i stopped by because they had posted a very thinly veiled racist sign on the door
when i arrived back here i was not even a full month outta surgery & i had a minor complication, so i went to the emergency room cause what else was i sposed to do? applied for charity as i had around $100 to my name at that point, which i THINK? got approved? also applied for mississippi medicaid the same day, which got denied almost outright as i have no children. so i've been uninsured since november & rationin the 3 month supply of my psych/migraine meds i received before leavin colorado for goin on 7 months. never mind bein able to access hrt!
job prospects here are Not Great! i've had to collect unemployment for a while as i cannot for the life of me find a full time job with a livin wage. otherwise i literally cannot make ends meet as the jobs i've held so far down here are payin average 50% or less of what i was makin in denver. even with the part time gigs i've had i have yet to crack 30hr/wk on any kind of regular basis
housin is an absolute shitshow. my lease is up 1 july (got a month extension) & i've been searchin everywhere for an affordable place of my own or at least a good roommate. the more affordable studio/1bd apartments go for around $700 & up, but most have income requirements of 2.5-3x the monthly rent which, considerin previous point abt wages, is near impossible. roommate listins are available but the majority are questionable at best & seekin a live-in bangmaid at worst
with all these considerations i spent the past few weeks feelin worse & worse lookin for somewhere close to the job i currently have. the leases are like 6mo-1y so i was picturin another year down here & how i was gonna survive, let alone thrive. my thoughts got darker & darker. i'd wake up in the mornin & be sad/disappointed i'd survived the night
this is no way to live
i snapped a few days ago. said to myself "if i'm destined to struggle wherever i go, i'd rather do it somewhere i actually Wanted to be in the first place" & started applyin for housin in denver. waitin to hear back from my first option & have secured a backup with a friend with a spare room for 6mo in case that falls through
right now i need help gettin the hell out! i've got first month's rent already put back, i can continue to collect unemployment until i land a good job in denver, & i'm already reachin out to find somewhere to work. i just don't have anywhere to go for another month or two to save the money i'll need to travel almost 1200mi (~1900km) back to colorado. i'll need at least $500 to make gas/food happen durin the time it will take me to get there, & i need it by the first of july (38 days from day of postin)
please help me escape!!!

EMERGENCY C0MISSI0NS OPEN! TLDR; My landlord died and left the house to his brother, after it was promised to my husband's stepfather for the past 6+ years and it was with no notice. His brother now owns the house, and has given us until May 1st to get out so he can sell it. He will not negotiate with us for rent to own, or continuing to rent from him and we are in desperate help to save and get out of here, but money is a huge issue! Any and all help would be GREATLY appreciated as we are two young trans queer adults (My husband and I, his stepfather has other arrangements) who *will* be homeless as of May 1st. We have nowhere to go, and as of right now we do not have a single apartment that we've looked into accepting us. My husband has a job, I'm desperately trying to get one as well (seasonal job laid me off) but he's having to pay the bills for our current living situation until we can move and it's expensive! ;( (We have a caseworker helping us but its really slow going rn and they can't help with money because of budgeting issues with their grants.) If you aren't interested in our art: (mine is the bottom photos, his is the top), my husband also crochets clothing and makes kandi. Contact me directly here, or you can contact him via @trapanrot If you don't want anything from us and just want to help, please d0nate to: Pay//pal: [email protected] Cash//app: $angelldusts (angeLLdusts) or Ven//mo: angieskandi I beg of you to reblog this and share it with your friends! I have tons more art examples I can send you if you want, these are just what I had handy.

Unfair
The landlord sent me an email this morning. She notified me that once the lease is up on Feb 15th, that she is moving onto the property. So, we are in trouble again.
Tumblr media
@helly-watermelonsmellinfellon was right. We never should have gotten relaxed. Everything is always blowing up in our faces. Somewhere in the universe, someone or something must really hate my family.
We need to find a place to live but don't have the finances to do it. We need application fees, rent, security, moving expenses, switching over the utilities, etc. All of it again. Everything we just went through we have to do it all over again.
We spent 19 months homeless 'cus we couldn't find a place we could afford. It took that long. And yes, I still have all of my applications in to several public housings and a slew of apartment complexes and not one has ever gotten back to me other than 2 in PA which we couldn't afford to move to. In fact, my application to Delaware Housing has been in for 32 months. Most places told me that we will be on the waiting list for 5 years before we hear anything from them.
I have started another GFM to help us move. I don't want to wait until the very last second. I want to find a cheap place and move into it or at least get the ball rolling asap. I am so disgusted by all of this.
I don't know if I can make through being homeless again. This time, we don't even have the van to sleep in. It broke down, and Dave can't afford to put it in the shop. It's old and needs so much work.
Please consider help us out again or at least sharing this fundraiser.
This is the last thing I wanted to even deal with right before Christmas. We aren't telling our 16 yr old just yet. She's dealing with teenage heartbreak and we want her to have a good Christmas.

Hey yall! My spouse and I are currently crowd-funding to move out of Oklahoma due to the violently anti-trans legislation being passed by the state government.
My spouse and I officially filed our name changes today and have the hearing April 20th. The total cost is currently $320 for both of us; we still have to make a public announcement in the local paper and pay for the official name change, copies of the name change, and updating all of our documents after the hearing.
We are still trying to get a lease signed for us and our housemates. We potentially will have to send one of us to view the houses as most places are not allow applications without a viewing. The cheapest flight options are $200-$400, not including lodging, rental cars, and application fees.
Shares are super appreciated!
Currently $214/$5,000
GoFundMe here

Hey so uh.. this is our last resort to try and find an apartment and make sure we don't end up homeless or worse. Please, donate, share, give it to your friends to share.. and please do what you can for this post (as well as the posts on our other medias online if you happen to follow us.) We're in crisis mode and need to figure this out, it's greatly appreciated if you were to read through this (albeit on there we don't have the fact that we're queer and disabled + fearing that the help we have may cease)... so please, if you wish to help, schedule to repost this a few times/reblog a few times if you can and see if there's anyone who is able to share it around. Maneki, Pepi, myself and my roommate would fully appreciate the help.

We're in crunch time now, and we desperately need any kind of help we can get. We are in crunch time and we need any kind of exposure or help - even if it's outside the GoFundMe itself. We appreciate every single donation thus far, and we're gonna appreciate anything else we can get.

I'm so stressed and scared, but if all goes well I should be back on Hormones in August and then able to get Breast Augmentation, Feminizing Body Sculpting, and Bottom Surgery within a year or two!
All I have to do is survive this move...

fleein the south: part II (update)
🆘️ 2 DAYS LEFT 🆘️
i'm exhausted but i'm so so so close to bein done. gotta go downstairs & pack my movies, rearrange/repack 2 existin boxes, then all that's left for tomorrow is packin up my stuff i use every day & loadin the van
set to leave roughly just after noonish on thursday & truck to a friend's house halfway across arkansas for the night, then a long drivin day across the other half of arkansas & the majority of oklahoma on friday where i have a hotel room waitin for me. from there it's just like 6-7hr north-northwestish to denver on saturday & i can sleep in my new apartment saturday night
i'm so ready to leave the south it ain't even funny. it's almost like it's hotter & more humid than i remember just a few years ago before i left, which, bein autistic with low heat tolerance, is hell. haven't been able to be my authentic self most of the time bc too many ppl around me worry abt losin face in town. i've been misgendered with beard plain as day on my chin so many times in the past week it almost feels like i'm gettin punk'd
- just occurred to me i'm gonna have to make some decisions re: public restrooms in the comin days & that's gonna suck real bad. oh well whatever -
so that's my update, i've made just enough in donations to fund fuel but food is lookin like it's gonna be a bit trickier. been pretty food insecure for abt 8 months now so i'm no stranger to goin to sleep hungry, but if y'all can spare anything to feed me until i can apply for food stamps in denver i'd appreciate it so so so much. i'm jupitervega on vmo/ca/ppl
thanks 4 readin, here's another emergency happy pic

Hey y'all! Unfortunately, due to the current political climate in Oklahoma and the legislation that is moving through our Senate and House, my partner and I have decided it's our best option to move out of Oklahoma. This is sooner than we had planned, so I have set up a GoFundMe for us to help cover some of the costs of moving. Our current goal is $5,000
GoFundMe link here!

Prompt 145
Vlad has finally gotten Daniel as a son! It’s wonderful, it’s great, it’s… actually really disheartening in how it happened. Maddie and Jack and Jazz are dead. He knows he said he wished for Jack’s death, but now that it’s happened he just feels… empty. 
Empty in a way reflected by Danny, a deep echoing void gnawing from their very cores, made worse the longer they stay in Amity. In a place where the more metaphorical ghosts wander seemingly everywhere. 
He always wanted a family Danny as a son, but now he’s uncertain as to what to do. Therapy and counseling is out of the question, not with the entire Spectra situation, nor with the fact that they aren’t exactly normal people. It’s not like they can ever talk about the soul-rending agony of dying, and then somehow not, going against the laws of reality itself. 
So he moves them, gets into contact with Ellie along the way. Another mistake he made that nearly worsens the cracks in his very Core whenever he thinks of it. They can’t go to Wisconsin- too many memories there as well, so they need to settle somewhere, anywhere else. 
Which is how he ended up purchasing a semi-old manor in Gotham, previously owned by… someone, the Dragons, Dreks, Drinks, something. It’s hard to remember things when he’s pushing all his energy to care for the younger halfas in the way he should have from the very beginning. 
It’ll take a while, but hopefully… Hopefully he can make everything alright. No more heroing or villianing, just… figuring out how to be a better person, if not for himself or the kids then for his late friends.

Since the wildfire smoke has been hitting the east coast, I've been thinking about doing a flowchart-style infographic on where to find US hazard information - so many of the comments on the info I posted were like "huh. I was wondering why the sky looked so funny." With the state of the Internet, search engines, and social media today, it really isn't intuitive where you can go to find reliable information on something so vague as "I noticed something a lil funky today," and so many of the platforms and accounts that emergency managers have spent years building up trust and visibility for have disappeared or become unverifiable because of Twitter's meltdown. Best to go to straight to the source when you can, as long as you know where to start.
This would just focus on the federal government, and mainly on immediate warnings and alert information...I'd rather just focus on natural hazards as well since those are the resources I'm familiar with, but that might be too narrow. Any ideas for questions and flowpaths besides what I've sketched out so far are welcome!
