Hello everyone I've spent the last month and a half trying to find new clients, commission work and to ask people to share my Ko-fi Page so that I can have a sustainable income.
I feel powerless and broken. I need help. I need hope. I'm so tired.

GoFundMe Launched For The Memorial & Family Of CAYLE SAIN
Twitching Tongues drummer Cayle Sain (who also played with Fuming Mouth, Ghostemane, Downpresser, Mizery, etc.) passed away earlier this week at 31 years old. A GoFundMe has now been launched […]
Alright people, I know this update is nearly a week late, but this week has been full of anything and everything and I haven’t had the spoons to write this out so here we go: There has been a BIG change in plans.
For those of you who are just finding me for the first time: Hi! My name is Connie. Along with my wife, I’m trying to move from Maryland to Seattle, Washington. Health issues, family issues, homophobia, transphobia and a general bad job market have made Maryland a generally bad place for us to live.
My wife has been working 3 jobs in order to save up money for this move and we’re reaching the point where the move itself should be possible. Finding a place to live is a little more difficult given some recent law changes. This, however, is not the biggest issue we’ve come to face this week.
Part of our plans involved getting some very specific financial aid which we were 95% sure we would get and due to circumstances that are out of our control that money simply isn’t coming. This has led us to a very difficult decision. One of the main reasons for moving there was for my wife to attend a specific school. She’s already been accepted and is enrolled but without that extra aid we won’t be able to afford her classes. Thankfully there is still the option of her to delay until the fall semester when hopefully we will be in a better financial situation.
The plus side of this is that we SHOULD be better off financially by the fall not to mention it gives us time to adjust to the area before getting super busy. The downside being that this pushes her entire education plan back not 1 but 2 semesters because she will also be missing out on summer classes. We’re still planning to make our move when we had previously scheduled because things just work out that way but it DOES give us more wiggle room to make the move.
Thanks again for any help. All donations, shares, boosts, and advice are greatly appreciated. Every little bit counts.
A really close friend mine, Dane, just lost his mother recently and is trying to get some money together to travel to Savannah Georgia and spread his mother's ashes.
He's an amazing guy and has spent the last month or so living with his mother while she was in in-home hospice care.
Trying to keep posting new updates every couple of weeks to let people know how things are going. Unfortunately, this update is less about our progress and more about how we now have MORE reason to leave this place. So on to the short intro:
Hi, everyone! I'm Connie and along with my wife, I'm trying to move to Seattle in January!
My wife is currently working 3 jobs and we're saving every penny we can in order to make this happen and we're also asking for anything that can be spared. Our situation here in Maryland has been difficult at best. Between health issues, family issues, homophobia, transphobia and a general bad job market, life has not been kind to us, so we're excited to start anew in a better place.
Now for this update I have to be very careful what I say because of some legal issues. My sister recently informed me that she has had a stalker for the last 9 months or so. The reason this only now comes to my attention is because her stalker turns out to be a substitute teacher in my child’s school district. Not only that but I later found out that she was in the school WITH my child a couple weeks ago. This gives us a whole new reason to want to be away from this area.
In other news: We’re starting to put in some applications for apartments that meet our needs. It looks like we’ll have a rough time meeting some of their requirements, but we’re trying anyway.
We’re still leaning towards the possibility of driving out. It’s not going to be a fun drive, but it gives us a lot more freedom in how we move some things as well as when we stop to rest and where.
Thanks again for any help you can provide. Every little bit brings us that much closer to a better, and safer life.
Good morning, friends, pals, admirers, and enemies!
It's #TransCrowdFund time! Ridley, a Hispanic trans man, was able to relocate from FL to PA, but both he and his partner lost their jobs last August. Please, if you can spare a dollar, send it their way. And if you can't, do what we always do: boost boost BOOST BOOST B00000000ST! (Also if you can donate, obviously don't let that stop you from spreading this like peanut butter!)
@glidedon#Facebook and #GoFundMe are the only two services I’ve found that enable an individual like me, unaffiliated with a #charity, to raise funds for that charity while letting the service transfer the #donations directly to the charity without my involvement.
Good morrow #Mastodon how be ye tusked folk of the internet?
I have come to tell ye I am unearthing my #GoFundMe but also check my #KofiPage
Gift giving season is upon us, bless thy loved ones with mighty BunBun energy of love and peace with a creation by moi, Sabi - full of love and light and care
