"At the center of it all was a woman. A woman now called a witch, who was always searching for love. Can we really blame her for that? Where did this original sin begin?"
Actual sequence of events today:
- look up housing info, learn I don't have the proper documentation at all
- Hospital calls at 9AM, survey
- Call specialty pharmacy, cancel their shipment bc we changed meds
- get called by primary care office, make followup appointment for tomorrow

I've been bedridden for the last 10 months for medical reasons, and I'm still about 1000$ behind on being able to pay for my car and storage. I'm sorry to keep asking, but if you could send a couple dollars, it'd really help.

Last boost for tonight
To top it off i just got hit with an unexpected hundred dollar charge
My rent is paid, so October starts now for my finances.

Of course, disability pretty much runs out immediately once rent is paid, so I'm going into the month on the ropes.

Plus, it's my birthday month. (The 8th!)

So here's the fundraising.

I logged in here for the first time in months, and the first thing I saw in my notifs were all the likes from a friend of mine who recently passed away.

Sorry, I might need a little more time.

I'm not back yet, I'm supposed to have a neurologist appointment at 8:30 this morning and rn I have no way of affording getting there and I'm trying to not break down crying over that. If anyone has Venmo and $30 to spare so I can at least get there:

@popeyeotaku.bsky.social If you're here PLEASE CHECK PAYPAL I've been trying to get your attention for hours

Sorry, I've still been having a really rough time of things so I've been hiding from here.

It's still really hard to be here because so many of the people who believed the smear campaign moved here. And I've gotten things like threats/harassment through strawpage to the point I don't use it anymore

Tonight is an Iron Lotus kind of night

🎶Flower of iron
Shrivelled up to hide the imposter in me
"Hey, why did you leave? Why did you leave?"
Don't let those words out of me
Imposter's about to speak
So I chewed on 話梅糖🎶

Shed tears on bloodied routes (Life is to become food for each other, no matter evil or good)
Eternally in hell we live (Life is fairness, life is inequality)

You showed me I still had an umbrella full of love inside me
Without you I could never be so sincerely thank you for everything

Oh, round and round we go, holding onto pain driven by our egos
Feelings untold, spinning our own versions of the past, that you could never know, how would I know?

Also, even though I don't like asking for help here, I have to. I had an adrenal crisis start last week and things got bad enough today that I had to call an ambulance because I have so little to my name that I couldn't even get myself to the hospital. In 10 hrs I have meds to pick up.

Disabled people are fighting for our lives

We’ve spent the last five years being told we’re expendable and doomed to be “left by the wayside”

Now is not the time to tell us we must “soften” our message

If you’re more offended by our tone than you are by people dying, you are part of the problem

When you’re chronically ill, you wait months or years for medical help (if you get it at all)

You wait for that ONE specialist who may be able to help you.

When they don’t help, or when they schedule you years down the road, it feels like abandonment.

Like they’ve decided your life isn’t worth it

We have the power to decide that everyone is worthy of healthcare, housing and social support.

We can say that no one should have to “prove” they matter.

That no one is expendable.

That meeting everyone’s basic needs is more important than enriching the billionaire class.

Hi, I'm just over here having a rough night, I hope everyone here's been okay

I’m glad that the risks of meds like Gabapentin are being made clear.

They’re not very effective for pain, yet pushed on patients because they’re the “non addictive” option.

They can cause seizures, aphasia and dementia.

We desperately need better pain management options for chronic conditions
Now do Lyrica.

These meds are grossly over prescribed for chronic pain. These medications are rarely effective (a few people find them effective, most don't), and come with serious side effects.

The Lyrica that I'm on, is the least effective med that I'm on for pain.

Gabapentin, which is used to treat seizures, nerve pain and restless leg syndrome might be linked with increased risk of dementia, a new study says.
