I'm housed now, but not because of any assistance program. Just lucky, and friends.

But for many others with long COVID, their housing instability journey is just beginning.

I've hit $305, which isn't quite half of rent, with under 2 hours left until due!

Are there any folks who can afford to be generous this morning? This is TIME SENSITIVE and my life depends on it!

Anything helps! And please keep sharing!
I've stalled at $240 of $700 rent needed by 11AM TOMORROW. This is only 12 hours away, with most of the time being late at night.

#PleaseShare, and PLEASE chip in if possible? My survival depends on staying housed, and I have no other options.

Multiply disabled heart patient in need of support!

$700 rent weekly, due 11AM Sundays

Hey, y'all #PWLC #NEISVoid. @harttandsoul.bsky.social and @morgfair.bsky.social had a wonderful podcast episode this week. I laughed so hard! But this segment had me a little weepy. Living with a disability means processing grief & acceptance. We still have purpose and hope. Thanks Morgan & Cathryn!
⚘️Cathryn Hartt recalls a pivotal conversation she had with sister Morgan Fairchild when they were kids that would lay the foundation for her successful acting career... and the courage it took to make all that happen.

1. Deport immigrants to Venezuela.

2. Attack Venezuela.

3. Get away with it because this country has no collective spine in Congress, and the Supreme Court is bought.

We did this to ourselves, and now yet another country is paying the price.

Update 4.4 - Now at $449/$500, thanks so much! If we meet this first batch 2day I will go get a money order in the morning and see how much I pay my landlord after taking care of an overdraft and paying my transportation to get the money order. Then I'll start the next batch of getting this paid. 💕💸

Their messaging is so fucking incoherent. Maduro was an illegitimate leader who lost in 2024, which is why we're replacing him with his VP instead of the person who won in 2024. We did this to stop fentanyl, which is why he's indicted for cocaine.

We're also occupying Venezuela via Zoom call.

There will dawn a day when these hostile hours, these days of hatred and violence, seem the faintest of memories, but dark and steep and long is the road up out of hell.

Or Canada. And while there is much evidence to assert that Maduro actually stole the previous Venezuelan election, we all know that Trump is prone to wholly false claims about stolen elections too. Not that he seems to care about Venezuelan democracy anyway.
If a Latin American head of state can be kidnapped, the same can happen to the head of government of a NATO country.

MS NOW confirms that Maduro will be taken to Brooklyn's Metropolitan Detention Center (MDC), the same facility—with horrific conditions—that held prominent prisoners like El Chapo, Sam Bankman-Fried, and Sean Combs, as well as ICE detainees.

We don't know how to show up in the United States. We schedule our outrage and hold signs for a few hours. We are a complacent country, and that will be our downfall.

None of this changes until we get very uncomfortable.
Members of Congress: stop posting online and APPEAR, PHYSICALLY on the steps of the Capitol to decry this unconstitutional violation of domestic & international law. SHOW THE PEOPLE the level of danger we are facing as a country.

THREAD: I'll fact-check all the viral misinformation about the US military operation in Venezuela in this thread

This image, purporting to show the US military arresting Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro, is AI-generated.

Trump is framing this as a law enforcement operation so he doesn’t need congressional authorization.

He’s not defending our country. He’s defending his grip on power with endless wars.

“American dominance in the Western Hemisphere will never be questioned again.”

Not all aerosol causes harm. Indeed, some are very useful at treating diseases of not only the lungs, but of other conditions as well

In my latest explainer video, I introduce the topic of pharmaceutical aerosol. I discuss a bit of its history and some of the underlying advantages and disadvantages
