in other words,
what i do every day
shapes the world
but what i do now
changes it.

especially as someone who no longer really believes in laziness, willpower, or work ethic.
of course, i am actually disabled, in some ways. and trans. and have plenty of mental and whole-system nonsense going on. but also, I'm okay. I'm enough. And I do make things that matter. And I don't have to keep looking for the next right answer.

sometimes the most terrifying question is
what if there's nothing wrong with me?

Hey friends and fair folk. I could use some help again right now. Medical problems have been really discouraging, and though I have been getting a bit of help from other sources, it's not enough to keep me afloat. If you can afford to / would like to help me out, that would be wonderful. My goal before December (this week) is at least $500, and I'll likely need the same in December, so I'm setting the goal at $1000.

$ 170/1000

ps. If you can't afford to help, maybe you should be asking for help too! Mutual aid is a pretty awesome thing, despite the difficulty and shame most of us feel around asking for help. We need each other, and we are better and stronger together.

Hey friends! I could still use a bit of help to make it through October.

( Any amount helps, but I know lots of you aren't doing much better than me financially, so no pressure. But thanks for reading and/or boosting this post. )

update: goal met! Thank you all so much.

Hey friends. I could use some help this month to afford the basics. If you can afford to / would like to help me out, that would be wonderful. My goal this month (September) is at least $700.

Hey! I could use help for October - I've made some progress, but still looking for work and figuring out my next steps.

My goal this month is $1200, but any amount at all would be amazing.

update: at about $900/$1200!

lesson from the anachronist itinerant:

not all tangles must needs be undone.
but find the thread you need and follow it through.

not all idle thoughts must be resolved.
find; take a pace to notice, to weigh.

follow it through as needs must.
meet the requirements where you are, where. you may.
where you can.
and remember that
offices make papers, positions, qualifications.

but we are those who do what must and may and means be done.

anarchy is just
doing it together, regard-less.
be safe, be well.
be brave.
and do what must needs be done.
