You don’t know what real work is.

Never worked as hard as I have.

Your uneducated ignorance is bliss- not one I could or would ever abide by.

#Disability #NaturalDisasters #Poverty can happen to anyone.

I hope they experience it, along with the gaslighting & refusal of aid that comes with it.

Lovely, condescendingly accusatory, abusive, & intimidating (also essentially purposeless) visit from the real estate.

Why bother? Other than to lay another boot in & laugh at my anguish?

Unearned privilege, power, & wealth coupled with your apathy don’t impress me.

Shhh. Don’t say that so close to Caesar.

Very fragile that one, despite being as constant as the North star…

If I am lucky, reunited with loved ones.

The last two dog toys I will ever get to give to my beautiful Missy.

Real Estate are forcing their way in to further intimidate & humiliate tomorrow.

Friday morning the police will physically remove me.

Feel like a child again, frozen in fear, my abusers closing in & the public & powers to be turning a blind eye.

No escape, unworthy of love or support.

I need to eat something, give me 20 minutes?

Just trying to spend my time giving love to all of my fur children without bawling like a newborn.

I am sorry for the belated response. Had to see a client and they were having a bad day which then made our appointment super long because I always want them to end on a positive note.

Which continued a similar downward spiral in me.

Yes, I've tried many, including People With Disability Australia, TASC National, ADA Australia, InCommunity, Wesley Mission (STARH), QAI, The Micah Project, DANA, the Salvation Army, St Vincent's, Mangrove Housing, and my university.

One even tried to send me to a crisis centre for teenage girls 🤦‍♂️

This last week, I'm finishing how I spent the vast majority of my life.

Through providing pro bono services, I had the privilege of learning (via horribly abusive abelist systems) to those in need, without a voice but with the empathy, understanding & insight they deserve.

Unfortunately, it is not just me. The powers that be could take steps to prevent and slow it down, but will not.

It does feel like badly disguised eugenics.

I'm not sure they know.

Dept of Housing claimed my #DSP & modest tutoring/mentoring income exceeds "eligibility limits" despite being well under the limits & not sustainable.

The NDIS rejected my claim because my DL expired, despite my ID being officially approved back in April.

I've until Wed.

I’m trying. Please know I am.

I don’t want to fail others.
