Due to a medical condition, Puck can't eat the food provided by the shelter, and the shelter doesn't allow outside food, so getting housed elsewhere is a priority!

Photo of a light-skinned man with short shaved hair, a short black beard, eyeglasses, and a nose piercing. He is wearing a black and white shirt, and has a yellow chain around his neck, and is holding a cigarette in his tattooed hand. The text beside the photo says "Puck is a disabled unhoused trans guy living in Brooklyn. We're looking to raise some survival funds for him! Send to cashapp $gabberwolfie99969.

Prize A: New paperback copy of "Trans & Disabled" anthology
Prize B: Cloth zipper bag featuring a variety of pride flags.
Prize C: A bundle of pride pins; take all six or choose just the ones you want.
Prize D: A bundle of art prints; take all four or choose just the ones you want.

The cover of the 2025 anthology book "Trans & Disabled: An Anthology of Identities & Experiences", edited by Alex Iantaffi. The art shows an illustration of a four-footed cane with ear protectors hanging on it. The background is dark blue with flowers in pink, white, and blue, evoking the trans pride flag. Red text over the book says "Raffle Prize A".

A 9 inch by 8 inch handmade cloth zipper pouch from the etsy shop Designs by DDZ, still in original protective wrapping. The design is white with a pattern of pride flags. Rainbow, progress pride, sunset lesbian, genderqueer, nonbinary, agender, pansexual, asexual, and transgender flags are visible. Red text below says "Raffle Prize B".

Four enamel pins from the creator Gay Breakfast, a lesbian pride bat with a Halloween candy bowl, an asexual pride skeleton dog grinning and running, a fluffy panda in a rainbow hat, and a fluffy panda in a trans hat. Also seen in the photo are two enamel pins from other creators: a progress pride flag shaped like a heart, and a happy pink axolotl with trans pride colored fins. This is labeled "Raffle Prize C".

A collage of four art prints. 1: a cartoon skeleton with its hands thrown above its head, near a small rainbow, with the caption "Gay Mess". 2. Orange background with a blue cartoon unicorn with pink mane and pink tail. There is a rainbow behind the unicorn, as well as a bird, a butterfly, and flowering grasses. 3. A background of blue and pink checkerboard pattern with white splotches and pink stars. The text "Trans Pride Trans Power" is overlaid in wavy black font. 4. Three smiling pink cartoon axolotls among yellow dandelions on a white background. The whole collage is labeled "Raffle Prize D".

How do I toe the line of "I have very few #spoons today due to #depression and #ChronicPain, so I shouldn't force myself to do all the things on my to-do list" vs "I'll feel so much better once I finish the things, so I should force myself to do the things even if it's unpleasant"? #SpoonieLife
