This is, now, more than ever, a good reminder.
The amazing transfem artist behind these words is also struggling to stay housed and needs help to survive. Sharing also helps.

I've not gotten any good at writing descriptions since I first made my tumblr and by god I'm not about to start now.

There must be a German word for that feeling when you're forcing yourself to play a video game after you've got 95+% completion and it's not nearly as much fun anymore. 😅
"Making things worse by making them better." In English sometimes jokingly translated to 'disimprove.'
Seriously!
Every profession has that one piece of semi-mainstream media that gets everything correct about them even though it's absolutely not the norm. Doctors have Scrubs, lawyers have My Cousin Vinny, hackers have Hackers. What's yours?
I don't know if the Great American Tech Support Novel is out there somewhere but I Get This Call Everyday is the definitive body of work on working in a call center
Hey, long time no chat. Unemployment has been hell, and I've been shifting things to credit cards and trying to hoard every single dime I can in cash for bills and debt payments. Finding a job has been a nightmare itself since I'm not even getting responses from like 30 applications. I have an interview (FINALLY) this week for a really good position, but even if everything goes amazing it'd still probably be a few weeks before I start and then a few weeks before getting paid. And that's a really big if I can't rely on.
I'm trying to hold up as best I can, but I can't do everything alone or juggle my way to live another day with the lights on come next month. My wife is unable to work and our roommate is paying her fair share, but I'm still facing the red. I've been homeless once, and unlike last time, I have more people, cats, and all the things I built back up since I had to throw everything away. If you got any pocket change you can toss my way, it would be appreciated. I am not great at expressing gratitude vocally but I am extremely grateful for anything.

If you want to use Zelle or something else(?) then uh, poke me on discord (@woopvonwoop) and we'll sort it out. I'm going to poke a few people for possible favors, and this week I'll research just how much money I can make a week without losing unemployment so I can gig economy a few more dollars in. I know I'm gonna make it through all of this but the how I am is still a bit up in the air for May.
UPDATE: Thank you so so much for all the help I've gotten not even 24 hours later. I may not be ready to read/post social media regularly until my life is more sorted out, but it is a huge relief on me to not have to juggle around rent and the first half of month bills.
