Getting closer...

Big love to you all. This has been a really rough time, but my faith is growing.

Most of the times Hexbear has covered me for rent, I feel that it's been rather tight, like super close to teh end of the month.

I have Cash App, Venmo, PayPal, and Zelle. If you would like to help and need one of those handles, shoot me a PM, and I'll get that to you.

When you administer naloxone to someone who’s addicted to opioids, they experience something called precipitated withdrawal. One of the symptoms of precipitated withdrawal is you shit your pants, a lot.

To spare you the unnecessary details, my $80 awesome as fuck sleeping bag bravely gave his life.

And I might need to disinfect and scrub the front passenger seat of my car.

I’m not steamed about any of this. But I need to take a nap and I have no blanket or anything.

One of my friends is kinda traumatized and I want to buy us dinner or something—some kind of thing the three of us can do to take the edge off.

I also want to kick some money to the guy whose life we saved. He’s homeless just like we are. But he’s obviously in bad shape right now and I want to give him even just a thin ray of sunshine. Even if it’s just $20 or something.

DM me for my CashApp, Venmo, and/or PayPal.

My precious baby girl hurt her neck and shoulder which required a blood test, x-ray, and two prescriptions for pain management and a steroid. This puts me down just a little shy of $500. I've put it on credit so it's somewhat manageable, but if anyone wants to send her some love my cashapp is $SpicySerenade

Pic unrelated, just her being silly.

Trying this again at perhaps a more active time of day on the site, apologies for the repost. I know a lot of other people are also struggling very badly right now and spare cash is a finite resource.

I'm kind of happy I won't need to talk to my asshole piece of shit boss again, but also I blew this after just four shifts, haven't even received my first paycheck yet, and now it's that time of the month again where I need to pay to fill my Buprenorphine prescription.

I could also use some help paying for groceries for the week, even just a few dollars really helps in that regard. I'm currently flat broke, out of food, and hungry. My cashapp and venmo are both under the handle cosecantphi. DM me for zelle or paypal info.

(Also I'd eventually like to recoup the cost of the stupid uniform I had to pay for out of pocket, but I'll consider that a stretch goal lol).

As always, I intend to pay the favor forward here once I get my job situation under control. I thought that was going to be soon, which hurts, but I still have hope I'll get there eventually.

EDIT: 59% of the way there!

I mentioned on here previously how I'm scheduled to have foot surgery. I am still waiting to hear back from them about whether my medical exemption certificate will cover the cost of the bandages or not.

They also said I need open toed shoes to wear after the surgery, potentially for up to 8 weeks after the surgery, because bandages will be on, and closed shoes will rub against the healing wounds. The only shoes I have are trainers, which aren't suitable, and as mentioned previously on here I have no income at all so I can't buy things myself.

I can't accept cash because of the DWP, so I wondered if anyone might be willing to order some sandals for me off amazon and have them sent to me?

I would just go for flipflops, as they'd be cheaper, but since it'll be the middle of winter and I'll be able to wear nothing else for 8 weeks I was hoping to be able to get something sturdier and further off the ground with a proper sole.

Update — We were able to get my wife’s glasses fixed and get a couple warmer clothes to wear but still need help with that as well. Haven’t been able to get a good jacket but got gloves, hat, some warmer clothes thanks to a few really kind donations but still have absolutely nothing for rent or anything else and we both REALLY need warm jackets, sooner the better as it gets colder and weather gets worse.. Phone bills due also by Dec. 1st - cost us $80 to keep both on which is crucial when we’re apart/my wife is gone getting things we need when I can’t accompany her because of my inability to walk much. Rly missing the Affordable Connectivity Program 😞😞

Hey everyone, I hope we’re all holding up okay and staying strong and focused on the struggle we’re all facing collectively! I know it’s a terrible time for so many people, for our brothers and sisters and comrades in west Asia (Palestine, Lebanon, etc) and the battle we face in the belly of the beast. I know we’re all doing the best we can and I hate to ask for more assistance, but my wife Kat has recently (last night) broken her prescription glasses and has terrmible eyes - with no alternatives like contacts or the like. Everywhere I’ve looked and called that’s close or viable it could between $70-$200 and her condition can seriously degrade without them so I really don’t want her to be blind for lack of a better term for too long.. she’s also experience a lot of problems with her teeth and need to see a doctor to get a referral for a dentist if possible asap, as well as there being a possibility of a previous medical condition involving polyps. I’m supposed to be having surgery soon and would REALLY like to get her at least on track to being taken care of also and it’s going to involve a lot of transportation and amongst a myriad of other things im sure but I couldn’t estimate the cost entirely.. we’re also handling all of this from a motel room thanks to the Amazing kindness of you all that’s keeping us from being out on the street, and in both my condition (I have a leg full of metal that’s destroyed and infected and I can’t walk most of the time) and hers it would most likely result in death for us both. And not to keep adding on to the list, we live in an area that gets very cold in the winter as it is already and we lack warm clothing from boots, warm jackets, gloves, hats, etc. if anyone is in a position to help with any of this, as always, we seriously and genuinely appreciate all of your solidarity and kindness. We’re doing everything we can to seek help elsewhere but it’s extremely difficult to get around due to my mobility issues. I can’t thank everyone enough. Really. From my wife and I both. I do not like using our ethnicities to elicit sympathy, but we are both of mixed race as I am Kurdish, Palestinian, Japanese and a European mix and my wife is of Pakistani and Guyanese descent and we have lost the entirety of our families over the last few years, my entire immediate family all in just the last year, so we are without any support system whatsoever aside from the kindness of strangers and our comrades from out of state.

Cash app ~ $goldenratio1123 PayPal ~ @ iwannadaisuki Can pm if having any trouble finding those or if Venmo and Zelle are needed.. thank you, again, and I’m sorry to ask for assistance at a time where everyone is struggling. Solidarity forever ❤️

Any help is appreciated, and I cannot stretch the word "any" enough. Sometimes, just feeling like I have some progress going on can alleviate stress to a degree, so if it's $5 or $10 or something low, don't feel like that's not greatly appreciated!

Trying to keep it together. Respect to you all. Shit's rough for everyone right now.

I have Cash App, Venmo, Zelle, and PayPal. PM me if you'd be willing to help in any way. Thank you.

Thankfully, I reached out to some sources beyond Hexbear too. Hoping! 🤞🏿

So I can make sandwiches, specifically, almond butter (or peanut butter) & honey. WAY better than peanut butter & jelly. When I have the necessary crap I eat like 6 of them a day. I have peanut/almond butter, no bread, and I’m running out of honey.

I’d like to get something to drink, too, but idk.

Thanks.

I reached out to a social worker at my gender clinic, and he gave me a few resources I can check out to see if they can provide me any direct aid. Things are seeming very scary and stressful at the moment obviously, but in better news, even though I'm just starting, the WFH project is starting to seem more promising. I'm still looking for a "regular" job just for the sake of security, but at least I have some source of income now.

Regarding the asshole mentioned in the earlier post... When I told my therapist about him, he definitely was sure that he sounded like a very unsafe person to be around. Honestly, I just no longer take anything he says seriously anymore, and after that, how could I?

Brutally honest rant about the state of things [CW: Doomer, Racism]I'm just gonna be honest... this deadline creeping up closer is frightening me a ton.

Not only that, last night, I got verbally attacked by a racist roommate in this residence who directly called me a slur and threatened to call the landlord on me, saying "You're finished!", over a baseless accusation over some ultimately trivial thing.

I talked about this man before, and he will continue to be awful. He apologized to me, and he continues to contradict himself by saying that, "This is just something I tell everybody in the house," which isn't true because his extreme rant was clearly directed at me, especially considering the racism and threats to get me evicted over nothing. This shit's gonna happen again, but at least, the more he acts like this, the easier it gets to take less seriously.

Things are bad. As a black transfem in a conservative state, I don't feel like I have the means to sugarcoat or hang onto a false sense of hope anymore. That's just how it is.

I've been feeling like I may be next on the list of many black trans people in this country with a terrible fate, especially since I don't have any real job prospects. Doing applications is feeling as realistic as me hopelessly trying for the lottery constantly.

Once again, I'm posting this twice today, but I really don't know if that'll be beneficial. I'm extremely hopeless, but I'll still try.

Thanks.

I have Cash App, Venmo, and PayPal. Any assistance is appreciated.

The $20 last time only filled it a bit more than half way. This car gets great gas mileage but I’ve been running the heater a lot. Maybe that’s why.

I also am hungry and wanna get some snacks and stuff.

DM me for CashApp/Venmo/PayPal.

Side note, registering this car is going to be way less than I expected, like somewhere north of $100. I have to get my ID replaced first though.

Some car-related expenses, some groceries & stuff

The headlights (both of them) went out (brights still work, but I want to y’know fix things that are wrong like a normal car owner). Still need fix-a-flat and stuff.

I also need to get a bottle of honey and a loaf of bread so I can make the sandwiches that have been a staple of my diet recently. And some other groceries. I’m fuckin’ hungry.

Why the subtraction? I went to a concert last night, and the venue was rather distant, plus it was late as hell, cold, and my legs were sore, so I had to order rideshare.

Today, I'm going to post this twice because the deadline continues to approach, and I want to reach multiple time zones. The anxiety continues to increase for sure. I will post the next one 12 hours from now.

Also, I got hired for a WFH gig! I'm still learning the ins and outs of it, but I hope it serves me well.

I'm glad we got a bit more ahead.

I don't know if I can convey how much I appreciate your help.

the power outage from the storm wiped out almost everything i had, and while i hate making these threads, i've gotta try and fundraise something to get some more food. We finally have power back, but our perishables are long gone.

If you can help, please message me for contact info thanks :(

Now that I have a car, I can buy groceries instead of always doing DoorDash or buying expensive ass ready-to-eat shit.

I need a loaf of bread and a bottle/jar of honey so I can make peanut/almond butter & honey sandwiches (probably my favorite breakfast/snack kinda thing). I’d like to get a tote/bin thing to put all my “food” stuff in. The rest will be for whatever—I never make up a grocery list, I just walk into Kroger and let the fates decide.

DM me for my CashApp/Venmo if you can’t figure it out lol. Or DM me for my friend’s PayPal.

I managed not to lose my apartment. Because of all the late fees, I ended up having to pay $940 when my rent was only like $710.

Anyway, that's taken care of and I at least have a place to stay for another month. But that was all of my money and more, and now I need to get some essentials and food. Toiletries and the like.

Any amount is helpful. Thank you all so much.

PayPal is preferred.

several days ago i had a freak storm hit us, and it knocked the power out with such drama that I am now looking at a freezer full of spoiled food. i haven't been able to cook and everything in there that's not shelf stable is useless.

This was a decent chunk of the usable food from the food pantry this month

I'm kinda fucked.

If you can help? It would mean a lot. The power is back on I guess, but I'm left with fucking nothing.

I want to scream.

payment details are @ktkatte for paypal/venmo. Thanks to anyone who can help.
