URGENT! NEED TO CLEAR OVERDRAFT ASAP. 🫠 Our cats need wet food again too, but I can't buy anything until I'm out of the red.

#MutualAid #TransCrowdFund

Our cat Robin, a grey and brown tabby, staring down from the top of a cat tree with both front legs extended towards the camera. He's hungy. He's always hungy.

Our cat Sullivan, a stripey brown Maine coon, looking like he wants his wet food while he broods on a star wars comforter

Electric is shut off. I can’t cook, do laundry not charge my phone inside (I’ve been charging it in my car). We don’t have much food except things to make PB and Js and oranges. Can’t even use heat because it’s off so 🙃 really feel hopeless right now and embarrassed so any help would really be great

Screenshot of text that says: I'm a single disabled mom of four. I have uterine fibroids that causes excessive bleeding and fatigue, POTs and PTSD from Covid turning into long covid and causing my health problems. I was working two jobs prior to not working until it caught up to me and I ended up in the ER with a heart rate that wouldn't slow down until I had to take medication. I have been trying to get on disability since. A year later I started to caretake for my disabled child by myself as well. I had help previously but it wasn't working out and l've had to do a lot of it on my own, now I'm stuck in a situation where working isn't possible for my health and while I'm already caretaking for my disabled child that needs constant care. I did not ever envision this happening to me and have always worked hard to take care of my family but now I'm in what feels like an impossible situation trying my best to take care of my kids and myself so I can stay around for them as long as possible. Im not enjoying coming online asking for help but I have no where else to turn. I'm doing

Screenshot of text that says: have no where else to turn. I'm doing everything I can to get help but it's not enough to survive off of. I'm sadly the only responsible parent and have limited family that all live too far to help. I live in California which is a bit expensive but with the state of America right now I'm trying to stay where my trans child and disabled child are the safest. Any help is appreciated and keeps my kids and I surviving while waiting on disability or other options I'm pursuing to happen. I don't know what the future holds but as a mother I'm doing everything I can to keep my family together, healthy and happy. Even if it means coming online and begging for that help. Thank you if you read.
Please boost if you're able. The chances someone who can help sees my post greatly increases with more eyes. Lots of love

Love being woken up at 4AM by the sound of a cat puking

Doubly love when he pukes a second time when I'm almost back to sleep

Triply love when I also watch him try and fail to poop, and must therefore get up to do poop watch

Quadruply love this happening the night before a big book launch

I don't worry about structure most of the time. Sometimes if it feels right, I might make notes in my outline or plotting. Mostly, I just write the story and let other people analyze it

You should be concerned about the rate of authors leaving publishing. Especially from marginalized communities. This year I have seen so many authors just pack it up and go. And it's only getting worse.

I think we really should stop using antifa and just fully say anti-fascist and get them saying they are against anti fascism. Using antifa is giving them some distance and I genuinely think some of their base don’t even know that’s what it stands for.

Like I know there are edgelord leftists out there who look down their noses at shit like No Kings but sorry you guys, the more mass protest looks fun and family-friendly, the bigger it gets and the better its chances of being broadly effective

I have a roommate and her husband is here. I can't focus on my writing even though he's got his back to me. Just feels awkward and a bit unsafe.

I'd really appreciate if writers these days took a look at their characters doing therapyspeak and whether that's appropriate for their work and their world.

By "therapyspeak" I mean speaking like this: "This is the emotion I'm feeling, and feeling that emotion makes me want to act in a way"

Rereading my very rough outline for The Smiling Skin and oh my god I forgot about the thing with the arm.

It's probably a good thing to get scared by my own story right?

i think we forget sometimes that the gothic genre is more than just girl vs creepy house. sometimes it can also be twink vs creepy house.
