this is definitely hitting a fevered pitch; i've had relatives that i hadn't spoken to since i came out decades ago reach out to me for help for a friend and i'm proud of them for not shunning the migrants & refugees like too many of the mexicans like do and swallowing their pride to talk to me on someone else's behalf.

it's a pity that i'm leaving my job; the disgustingly fat paychecks would help A LOT rn.
