Hey all! So things are starting to look up. It looks like I’ll be able to get by thanks to everyone’s help.

The more I have the easier it will be though. Currently I have less than $5,000 to my name. If I had just $1,000 more I’d be a bit better prepared.

Between working full time and packing…

I have never needed more #help than I do now. Despite the generosity of others, I've only been able to raise $74. It's barely enough for a grocery trip, let alone my mounting medical costs. I feel like the walls are closing in. I can't keep living like this. #donate

Haven’t had time for art much lately. Trying to survive.

Just popping in to say I am trans. I am non binary. I am queer.

I have never committed or been arrested for a crime. Never even had a traffic ticket. I’ve never needed mental health help for being trans. I’ve never bought a gun.

It involved doing the dishes daily (sometimes twice), feeding and watering all the animals, sweeping, dusting, vacuuming, assisting I dinner prep, doing all the laundry, changing my mom’s bed sheets, cleaning the bathrooms at least once a week, cleaning gutters and windows monthly…etc

Let’s get a few things straight.

1. Nobody is a perfect parent. But my dad was about as close as you can get. He was a great man, unafraid to be open about his feelings, passionately invested in his childrens’ futures, willing to encourage goodness through action and example wherever he went.

Ya know, I’ve been thinking lately.
As bad as all this hurt, I think the part that hurt the worst was folks I loved who ended up taking her side. They wouldn’t believe my story no matter how honest I was or how much I pleaded. There’s no way to describe that world-spiraling feeling if betrayal.
I think it’s finally time to open up about the events surrounding my father, Howard Andrew Jones, author of the #Hanuvar Chronicles.

I’ve gone through a lot of therapy and I think I’m ready to discuss it.

Plus, I think it’s stuff the world needs to know. A thread.

14. Being nb is a homely affair. I live it every day. Sometimes it’s an identity that brings me great joy. Most of the time it just feels mundane.

We aren’t asking anyone for anything but to let us exist and live our lives. The gender binary works for most ppl so it doesn’t need to disappear.

1. This is a reminder that I am non-binary.🖤💜💛🤍

I wanna take some time and discuss that. I was 15 when I encountered the term online and for the first time had the vocabulary to describe a feeling I’d always had…

I thought this TikTok said it well.
I think many neurotypical people don’t realize how exhausting it is navigating the world while AuDHD. It’s not their fault, it just isn’t taught.

Hey guys,
Just a reminder that I've got a gofundme. My lease is up in a week now and I don't currently know where I'll be staying next. But I do finally have a job interview so wish me luck!

I only have to hold out a little longer. Your assistance goes a long way! Thank you.❤️

An essay about death threats, censorship, loss, and the silence of cis people. All of these events happened in one week. I'm exhausted.
