hello please help me out with this!! i am still on the hunt for a full time job that will help tremendously but this is what i am relying on !!
since so many folks follow me on my archived blog, i’m gonna post this here instead. posting this here first instead of anywhere else bc of personal reasons, but i’m making the leap! living in a still christian home with a formerly harmful (and still slightly harmful) parent is draining me much more than i would have thought and like! i’m sent christian messages frequently and my anxieties of being monitored are back. i haven’t been taking care of myself recently and it’s difficult to, living in the environment i live in now.
i’m hoping to get a full time this week or the next to supplement most of other money (rent in general, mostly) but this will all be put into a savings account to live, and then all go towards any extra moving costs i come across (pet deposit, groceries i need, etc.). while this is low emergency, i do have a small sense of urgency about leaving as soon as i can (preferably in september). thanks yall for spreading this around in advance.
tl;dr: living with my parents in a formerly abusive household, with currently homophobic and transphobic and christian parents is more damaging to my mental wellbeing than i’d truly expected, and every day is me either planning a time to leave with very little resources or horrendously struggling to cope and i would love to leave soon.

@anarcha-catgirlism @dynastylnoire @tashabilities
Tight restrictions on abortion have already placed the procedure out of reach for many Black women in America — obstacles that will grow even more daunting if the landmark Roe v. Wade is overturned.
Across the Black Belt — the Southern states where the echoes of slavery reverberate in legislation that perpetuates political and social inequities — women have long confronted overwhelming costs and logistical obstacles in seeking reproductive health care.
Earlier this week a leaked draft of a Supreme Court opinion signaled the end of abortion rights nationally, which would leave an already marginalized group, who seek abortion care at a higher rate, with less access to family planning services, resulting in poor health, education and economic outcomes, according to researchers, experts in family planning and advocates for reproductive justice.
“Women are going to die,” said Dalton Johnson, who owns an abortion clinic in Huntsville, Alabama. “It might not be as many as it was in the ’70s because we have medication abortions. There are groups that are going to have access to those — whether legally or illegally. But everybody’s not going to be able to do that and women are going to die.”
If Roe falls, many women in the South will turn to a network of grassroots organizations and advocacy groups led by Black women that has emerged out of necessity to fill gaps in health care coverage and the social safety net. These groups have already been helping women who struggle to compile the cash — and coordinate the time away from work, child care and transportation — that are necessary to get the procedure.
