💸💕🏳️‍⚧️

Hi, I'm Amy and I recently came out as trans. Because of where I was living and the people I was living with I had to vacate my home in a hurry.

Due to all that, finances have become tight and I could use help making ends meet until I get myself established in a new city.

All funds will be used to pay bills, buy a bed and bedroom furniture, get groceries and cover any other costs that may occur before I am able to find a new job.

Due to some unforeseen weirdness, I left my job before I had planned to so keeping my car on the road so I can find work is a priority as well.

I would gladly contribute to a fund that goes to purchasing more of these inflatables for protesters. :)

If democrats weren’t also so married to nakedly corrupt insider trading like the stuff done by Pelosi they could run on anti-corruption and win in landslides.

Why do think to this day politicians on both sides of the aisle are so reluctant to release the Epstein Files? It’s clear they have something to hide, and they don’t want to lose their positions of power. To give up power would be the most courageous act.

To reference my last post, these politicians who should be setting a better example of why we shouldn’t accept a system that allows men or older people in general to get away with taking advantage of younger people. And ever since the Clinton era, Democrats have failed to change anything.

LIBERALS need to stop idolizing politicians. Grow up and have some fucking shame. The democrats aren't your friends. These people should be working for us because, ultimately, we hired them to actually govern and look after people! If democratic politicians can't do that, then they should quit.

Uncomfortable to watch, especially if you’ve experienced these kinds of traumas. And there have been times in my life, where I haven’t made the best decisions when it comes to relationships. But we should strive to do better, and abandon a system that allows shit like this.

Imagine if the $180 million spent on Tron: Ares had gone into four or five $35-45 million original movies instead geared towards todays younger folks. To quote Alan Bradley in Tron: Legacy, "wouldn't that be something."

Instead of spending a fortune to revive ancient IP, just ... make something new. Maybe it'll also bomb, but maybe you'll create a new franchise.

apparently the new Netflix show Monster: The Ed Gein Story invented an "autogynephilia" backstory for their serial killer (because of course they did!). so time to re-up my collection of writings on this pseudoscientific zombie theory...
