Still trying to meet my goal. Rent is due soon, and I forgot that the payment arrangement for my phone is due today, as is my contribution to the internet bill…

Anything at all helps. Thanks so much~

I didn't need more reason to hate the Salvation Army, but I'll take it

Salvation Army seen feeding ICE today. For anyone who doesn't already know about their bigotry, here is more, No need to give them your money this Christmas, or ever.

It’s dinner time for the police. Appears to be pizza from a Salvation Army van.

Broadview’s “free speech” curfew starts soon, at 6pm.

About a month ago, the Trump administration got rid of the de minimis exemption, whereby packages valued under $800 could slide in without import duties. Now there's a backlog as the government can't process all of this paperwork, leading to UPS just destroying packages

Business Insider headline reads: UPS is telling customers that their packages coming to the US are marked for destruction.

Oooh, I'd love to see that, but I haven't had a Netflix sub in like a year, sadly. I miss it, honestly. Need to figure out how I can get it again.

I kinda wanna get drunk tonight, but like... I also don't wanna spend the money. I don't have hardly any left, maybe $40. Until the 20th, lol.

One of the downsides of being out/semi-out trans for so long is that I've never had any real career stability. I have a BA in theatre, haha, so that doesn't help. But it was what I could easily get a degree in while also working two part-time jobs at once. And HRT took decades to get on consistently

Mezzy (She/It)🏳️‍⚧️🇯🇵 @ateliermichi.bsky.social · 11h

Thinking about it, I've been working full-time for about 23 years myself. There was a period of 4 years where I worked a decent career-type job, but I knew I was trans since I was 17, and I couldn't stand being closeted like that for so long... so I quit and began working while going back to college

That suuuuuuucks. Granted I've never had a surgery savings, but I think that's less painful than having one and losing it! I'm sorry you had to go through that!

I'm a teacher in Japan, and my company runs on yearly contracts. They never have to lay you off, they can just not re-contract you next year. Nobody EVER gets fired in Japan unless they end up in prison, basically.

Mezzy (She/It)🏳️‍⚧️🇯🇵 @ateliermichi.bsky.social · 11h

I've never had a job that had any sort of severance system, so I don't think even that'd help me. But yeah, it would suck to go through that in 2025

I've had that much money in my hands, but only because I sometimes help people buy super rare Pokemon cards. It's never been MY money. Having $2000 would like make my whole life better for the next year, lol.

I dunno about the "healing" part, I need to be in therapy and that's fucking impossibly expensive here right now, lol. Wish I could afford it, it's been amazingly useful in the past.

Mezzy (She/It)🏳️‍⚧️🇯🇵 @ateliermichi.bsky.social · 12h

I hope so. But also I'm in Japan, so it's kinda like... harder to meet people here, lol. But yeah. I think... sometimes I think just co-caring for mentally unstable partners sounds really nice, as long as they're not abusive. It sounds cozy somehow... being "broken" together.

Mezzy (She/It)🏳️‍⚧️🇯🇵 @ateliermichi.bsky.social · 12h

I fucking miss hot water so goddamned much, my skin is getting less soft thanks to the disruption in my bath salt and skincare routine! I SO HOPE I can get the gas turned back on after payday...

Mezzy (She/It)🏳️‍⚧️🇯🇵 @ateliermichi.bsky.social · 12h

Yeeeeeeee go make shit happen!!!

Mezzy (She/It)🏳️‍⚧️🇯🇵 @ateliermichi.bsky.social · 12h

Also, I've realized that kink has been a really useful way to reframe that "I deserve to be treated poorly and abused" thought process into something safe and consensual. Granted I've been deeply isolated recently due to world/life reasons, but I really enjoyed those dynamics when I can.

Mezzy (She/It)🏳️‍⚧️🇯🇵 @ateliermichi.bsky.social · 12h

YEAAAAHHHHHH absolutely that. I feel that so hardcore, and I'm always the worst at giving 2nd/3rd/4th chances to people who didn't even deserve the 1st.

I'm just waiting for the girl who is like not shit, the right level of needy/horny, ok with me disappearing sometimes, and just loves me anyway.

Mezzy (She/It)🏳️‍⚧️🇯🇵 @ateliermichi.bsky.social · 12h

Well I certainly wish you luck if you desire to do so!

I mean I do too, but like... in terms of dating, I dunno, I've dated a lot of cis women in the past and no trans women and I feel like... shared experience isn't quite the same. Also the sex is different and I like that?

I'm overanalyzing now, lol.

Someone would be nice to me, and I immediately thought they would be my lifelong partner or something. Girls always recoiled quickly. Took a lot of work to learn how to tone that down, but it still fucks with my relationships even today. Have been in some abusive af situations thanks to all that.

It was like... everyone I got close to eventually left or pushed me away because I was a weird nerdy freak. Video games and the woods outside were the only world I knew outside of Christian school and church. It was a fucked up existence, lots of self-hate and abandonment issues.
