my friend created a fundraiser 1yr ago this month. it’s currently 55% funded—typical for BIPOC fundraisers, which rarely get fully funded.
we just left a DV situ bc of poverty & no other options, no safer, dog-safe shelters

Last update I saw from my friend was 0/800 so far, so there's a ways to go before she and her ESA dog can be secure in a safer warmer stay though December.
💜
Please help out.
Give a little if you can spare it,
Take some time to share, or
Go to her post and leave a kind word.

this also seems to embolden individuals who take on the mantle of institutional abandonment and violence and it looks like punching down, denial, and abuse.
Governments everywhere seem to think intensifying cruelty is a policy solution. They know it is not. But they keep doing it.

same for people with action-behavior-congruent economic justice lens and solidarity. they are the reason i am still alive. people sans mutual aid skills and solid class analysis are actively harmful to me and all people locked out of survival vis-a-vis isolation, disability, no family, etc.
Damn, more and more my well-being, sense of self, ability to do meaningful works, and basic survival seems to depend on me surrounding myself with militant disabled people.

i worry about cancer with my inappetence and recent weight loss. it’s comorbid with my autoimmune illness (untreated due to no insurance, homeless, etc.)
then again it could be the effects of homelessness, poverty, and recent DV / profoundly abusive stay
