I'm already so overwhelmed by the support I've received thus far! I definitely didn't expect this much or so soon. I toured 2 apartments yesterday and I'm hoping to get one of them in particular, but if i can't, the other one will be fine (I realize I'm being vague but idk who's gonna see this). I also realized my car insurance is gonna go way up once I move due to the area, so that's another financial issue to deal with. it's alright, we're gonna figure this out.

I would really appreciate some more shares! I'm going to need every cent. Thank you all so much.

I hate making posts like this, but every bit helps 💙

My roommate got their dream job several states away, and I'm very happy for them, but it means I've got to find new housing before the end of May. I've had very short notice, so I haven't had time to save money for moving costs. Plus, my car failed inspection today, and parts+labor will be $900 plus tax (and that's with me being smart and buying my own parts and taking them to a locally owned mechanic to install, rather than getting it fixed by a chain that wants to charge me $350 more).

In the area where I'll be moving, because I've been trying to move there for literal years so I'm finally biting the bullet, my salary is equal to the amount you have to be at or under in order to qualify for single-occupant low-income housing. 🙃 so in addition to needing car repairs, a moving van, gas for multiple 4-hour drives, rent, deposits, and utility startup fees, I need money to just plain feed myself and pay my pharmacy copays for my many medicines for my many chronic issues while I recover from this financial hurdle.

So. Any little bit helps. And if you can't donate, I'd really appreciate a share. 💙 Thank you for reading!

@pie2dface where the hell do you work I would kill for that situation 😂

LMAO. I literally said it mutates faster than vaccines can keep up, not that it would mutate during a car ride.

We’ve spent too much time on the people who think the Covid vaccine has microchips and not enough time on people like this

Okay I'm done 😂😂😂 enjoy your covid

BOOK REVIEW

I really wanted to like You, Me, and Our Heartstrings. It had so much potential. Disabled characters! Music schools! Romance! But it just fell so flat. It was a 2-dimensional story where important things were never given the correct amount of weight or time. The story felt like it had come to a natural close before the halfway point of the book.

The diversity seemed to exist as "look how much diversity I can stuff in here, look how many tidbits I know about these specific cultures, give me a good grade in Googling please" and not "this is a community that is naturally diverse and I want to represent their cultures knowledgeably and respectfully."

The main character's disability (cerebral palsy) was rarely referenced. Once in a while there was mention of a muscle spasm or the adaptations to her violin that allowed her to play, but the disability seemed more like an accessory and a reason to get righteously angry over ableism at convenient times in order to move the plot forward or create tension, rather than an actual condition that affected her life and the way she saw and moved through the world. And the reasons behind why certain things made her angry (rightfully so) weren't explained, which just made her seem whiny.

I was just so disappointed. I was looking forward to the book well before it came out. It's great seeing disabled characters represented as desirable, but that's about the only positive here, and is it really a positive if the disability is used as a plot accessory rather than a part of a complete human being?

✴️✴️*️⃣*️⃣*️⃣

In an enclosed space, for hours, with a virus that is rapidly mutating faster than vaccines can keep up? The vaccines only decrease chances of getting it and decrease the severity. They're not a cure. Which is why COVID still exists.

Yes she should have researched this specific type of mask, it's not actually doing anything for her. But the fear is legitimate.

If you need me I will be Among The Tree

Meet Pando, not a forest but a single tree. Every trunk of the Quaking Aspen is genetically identical & connected by a single 80,000 year old root system, making it one of the largest and oldest living entities on Earth!

there's something so raw and soul crushing about spending your late childhood+teen years suicidal then growing up and actually wanting to live, after an ungodly effort, only to see your health deteriorate because of chronic illness.

No one actually said this type of mask is sound science. People are making fun of her for being rightfully scared & taking precautions which is not cool. Is it overkill? Maybe. Is this type of mask ineffective? Probably. But some people's lives would be in danger if they got COVID, or got it again. People want to act like it's over when it's actually genuinely not. Do you want to be the one to carry it to your grandparents or newborn nephew or a disabled or chronically ill friend or family member? Because I sure don't.

All the people making fun of her and saying it's sad that she's doing this must not know about long COVID or the effects it can have or how some people (like me) get such bad autonomic dysfunction after COVID that they lose their ability to eat and drink over the next several months.

Y'all I took my wheelchair on its inaugural outing today and holy shit what a difference!!! I went to an art museum with a friend and we were able to just take our time, contemplate the art, wander at our own pace, and the only reason we left before seeing everything was that we were starving 😂 and I'm just regular old i-didnt-sleep-well-and-i-had-an-outing tired, not like my heart is exploding and I'm dizzy and my joints are breaking and I can't breathe and I'm gonna puke, like I normally would be. I'm so ecstatic, literally it's night and day. And the museum was very well prepared - it was like they saw me coming and went "PLACES, PEOPLE" because there was a guy to open the door for me, someone immediately guided me to the wheelchair lift (there are a few stairs up from the entrance to the museum proper) and operated it for me. It was just so nice. I had such a great time. And I still feel like I could do more things today! 😊 God I'm so excited to be able to do things without extremely paying for it for days or weeks afterward! My joints are a little sore and my muscles are gonna be too, but like, this is insane. I can do things again without being in extreme pain and sick for days??? WILD. The internal ableism telling me a wheelchair is overkill has been soundly proven wrong. 😭💙 I'm literally so hype.

Please enjoy these pictures of art pieces I greatly enjoyed, plus a pic of my beautiful chair 💚

Funny story, my queer ass first saw it in the theater, on a date with a guy, with no knowledge of the story whatsoever. I didn't even know it was a musical. Oh how much can change in 12 years 😂

Every time I watch Les Miserables (2012) I tell myself I'm not gonna cry. And every time I do, I'm lying 😂😭
