Going to get all of the money together and redistribute funds sometime this week! Ideally tomorrow, but we’ll see with how exhausted I am from the weekend.

The niece of a close friend of mine was recently diagnosed with Stage 4 Lymphatic Cancer and he needs help raising funds to help take care of her medical bills. Please donate if you’re able, share the link if you can’t donate. And oh yeah, #FuckCancer gofund.me/ccf49787

A Black disabled legend. Arthur Ashe acquired HIV via a blood transfusion during heart surgery to correct a quadruple heart bypass in 1983. He died of AIDS related pneumonia in 1993.

Donald Trumps deployments of national guard into Washington DC is explicitly to harm or outright kill homeless people, many of whom are disabled. If we have any folks on the ground in DC please reach out to us and inform us about how we can support you all.

My deep depression has been manifesting as anger, and in dreams of relapse. I’m mostly staying strong, but it feels as though life is continuing to push me.

After Teighlor passed away I developed issues with the muscles that surround my rib cage, in particular the areas around where my bra band sits (I wear sports bras mostly). It feels like the muscles are trying to crush my ribs.
