I spent most of the last two years living in a car, and haven't had a steady source of income since pandemic unemployment ended late last year. Any help would be appreciated ✨💚✨
I’m a Black trans woman who has a court hearing on Tuesday. This hearing is because I’m fighting my eviction. I don’t want to end up homeless. I’ve been fighting this for 8 months and I’m stressed out completely.

I’m down to $150 in debt but have almost nothing for 2 weeks now and still need to get toothpaste and a little bit of food so if anyone can help with that or rb this it’d be very much appreciated!

If you follow me and even if you dont you may have seen my donation posts about leaving my abusers house, and I am very greatful for that help but it seems that we have gone from one bad situation to a worse one.
Due to our housing situation with my toxic parent, my partners parents offered up their village home for us to live in, them acting as landlords.
In late Jan we moved to my partners home village, My partners family is all from here and the house we are currently leaving is under construction. We initially stayed at a different family members home, due to the unfinished remodeling. My partner and I were staying with a family member who is affiliated with the c@rt*l and we had no choice about this. Durring the 5 days out of the 3 weeks we were susposed to stay, I was sexually harassed, objectified and called anti black slurs, both of us were screamed and belittle for being disabled, we were threatened with physical violence from basically c@rt*l paid off police, among many other things that ended up having us having to barricade ourselves inside the room we were staying in. That night that happened we basically had to take all of our bags and go to the house under construction because we felt so unsafe.
Once we were here in the house we are currently planned to leave from, We tried to settle in for the night but still feared for the violence their family member threatened. The next morning we has realized that this house was WAYYY more under construction than our landlords (my partners parents) had made it out to seem. We were very uncomfortable and exposed with no windows, doors, limited power and no gas for cooking. My partner explained these problems to their family and they werent taken seriously because "atleast we werent on the street or dead". As dismissive as they were we tried to make lemonade out of lemons and have this house become our home.
Things were fine for a few weeks, but the house was still barely liveable, and we had expressed frustration by this but were understanding. My partners parents made it seem like they didnt have enough funds to finish some aspects of the house so I stupidly gave them $$$ from our own food/bill money to help install windows. It took another month for that to happen, and after the window bases without glass were installed we were told by my partners father that he was coming in a week to this house.
We were confused and stressed because they made it sound like they dont have enough funds but book a same week ticket? We got the house clean and mostly void of construction materials, and the first thing out of my partners fathers mouth was straight up belittling my partners ability and arguing that we dont deserve a house we cant clean.
Over the course of the 10 days my partners father was here they were verbally and physically abused and had felt like they had to endure for the affordable housing. Their father was also being very anti black and abusive to me, expecting me to basically be a "woman in their place", which did not sit with me, and on one of the last days he was here my partner and him were arguing because he was trying to talk shit about me but in spanish to skirt around me from understanding.
But i understand more spanish than he knew and i confronted him and said "Sir if you have anything to say about or to me you can say it to my face, and you are not my father or my grandfather, you do not and cannot control me, I am not going to have a man tell me what i can and cannot do, what i can and cannot say and how i can and cannot act" And he was taken aback that a black "woman" put him in his place, so not only does he flip out he basically tells my partner that they need to control me better and left. The day before he leaves he makes an excuse to get something from our room and he decides to go through my purse and steal my copy of the house keys out of spite.
There is quite a bunch more smaller things that I could talk about but what is most important is what has been happening this past two months
In early July durring the height of the rainy season here, there were intense rain/thunder storms that exposed a leaking roof and structural issues to us. Our ceiling began to crack and leak, the stone base around the old windows were crumbling. My partner told their parents about this, and how the structural issues should be the newest focus for the construction, they were told "Not everthing can be done when you want it to" and they basically ignored the problem
In late July we were giving a very vauge "men are gonna come paint the house" with no more detail, and later were called to be told painters would be here on the last sunday of July, we waited and they never came.
Then Tuesday August 2nd my partners cousin (the contractor working on the house) showed up with their family cleaning lady, and It was odd for us but she cleaned the house and whilst leaving we were told "oh your (my partners) parents said that this house has to be perfectly clean and the painters could either come later today or tomorrow". After he left my partner called their parents asking not only why are they not telling us whats going on with the house but also why are they going to paint over structural damnage, they initially took it ok and agreed to halt the painting until the house was structurally sound.
The next day my partner had a telehealth therapy appt and I had a digital lecture for school, and before either of us were able to do those things my partners cousin and the same cleaning lady came back without warning. They basically tell us that theyre cleaning to paint the house, and contradicting what my partners parents agreed too the night before. On the phone with their parents my partner tried to get them to see how paint is unimportant to the house and for them to care about the structural issues but they didnt care and blamed both of us for "not wanting things to be done". Also that day the painters did not come, so at this point we are being given vauge times for these workers to come over and we ask to be kept in the loop, and given a proper date and time for these things so we can be out of the house. They also refused this request.
Thursday they come again in the morning to prep for these mystery painters, and when the contractor and cleaning lady leave we have only 3 hours of peace to ourselves when my partners cousin comes back with a strange dude. They tell us that they are here to rip up all the plants in the yard, and I explain that its fine to pull the plants around the house but not in the back which is my garden. When they were done pulling plants around the house they tried to "help" me by pulling up the plants in my garden. Both my partner and I explained that growing plants and tending to them is very important to me, and that im more than capable of doing the "weed pulling" by myself. My partners cousin agreed a then left, but later that night he called my partner telling a different story. A translated/shortened version of what was
said "Im not just mad im fucking pissed that a (black) woman told me what to do and how to do my job, Youre (my partner) the man of the house (theyre not a man) you need to do better at controlling them, because this isnt their place to be making choices about the house"
At this point we are both highly considering leaving because of the horrible treatment of me and my partner, We try to calm down and sit with our feelings to see if we can work things out here but we decide that If we cant get their parents/family to respect us and esp me then we cant stay.
Friday the 5th is fine for the start of the day and we are left alone until late afternoon. We get a call from my partners cousin who tells u that at 5 the painters are going to be there. We move the couches and large home pieces and wait for them for over an hour, and when they come back over my partner sees that they did not come over with paint and the painting supplies but gardening tools to rip up my garden.
At this point i am LIVID because not only did he lie to us he did this all out of spite for me being an "out of control woman who needs to be put in their place". I start screaming and calling him a liar because he lied to us. When he is in the yard where we cant see he cuts HALF OF OUR HOMES POWER which powers the AC which i NEED to control my POTS in the subtropics. Again he did this to get back at me knowing i would suffer because of this.
After he leaves we basically agree that we will not be staying here because of all the abuse and violence both of us have gone through. I personally feel safer with my black abusive parent than staying where we are now, I now had to reconnect back and talk to my family again and ask for a place to stay again. Thankfully we wont be on the street but we are going right back to my abusers home. I am still mentally numb from this but It quiet frankly physically safer than staying around my partners very violent anti black family.
Durring the time right after that series of events we start planning our leave, get some help from a close family member so we can fly back, and start re-packing basically everything we own. We disconnect the home phone, we dont open the door and we are very frim with everyone telling my partners various family members that until we are gone this house is not gonna be available to be worked on because we have to pack. They continually fight this almost everyday since we have told them. They keep telling us that we cant just not let the workers in, and we explained that we will be doing that so we have enough time and space to pack literally everything we own.
Yesterday our landlords, my partners abusive parents sent their cousin to BREAK IN to our house and threaten us, because we werent letting workers in. Again they sent someone to break in our house because we had boundaries and needed to pack. We were both hella shocked that they would go to such lengths to manipulate n scare us into doing what they want.
After my partner confronted their cousin who literally just broke in, they argued and he eventually left, so after he left i had to barricade the door/gate and use 12 gauge wire to wrap around the locks so even if theyre broken open they cant be moved. Quite frankly im very triggered because this is not the 1st time ive experienced people breaking into my space to be violent and threaten me. My partner and I are/were still in shock and later that night, their mother gets my partners oldest very physically and verbally abusive brother to threaten them.
The blacked out name is their second oldest brother who is a cop, They are threatening to basically come to this house and beat my partner which they have a history of doing.
My partners family has been abusive, violent, anti black, and with the recent escalation we are pretty scared for our safety. We had to sleep in turns last night because the paranoia of them breaking back in to hurt us was so great. We are planned to leave late on the 25th which leaves us one more week to endure.
This is only the highlights of the horrible shit we had to endure here, because we know my partners family can and will do anything to hurt us, I will be sharing the legal names of the several different people who have threatened violence against me and my partner to close friends/family if we go "missing". I genuinely hope yall understand why we need to leave and get funds for re-re-starting our lives.
I genuinely ask you not to dm me questions abt this because I am rather traumatized and paranoid at this time.
As many of you know, I put a lot of work into my blog. I spend a lot of time educating people about racism and direct action efforts and social movements. It has been extremely rewarding but also can be exhausting at times, so I really appreciate the kind words you all share with me in return. It keeps me going.
I also decided to give y’all another way to support me, through ko-fi. I’m not in dire need, so please don’t give me anything at the expense of your own comfort. But I am jobless thanks to covid, so it will be greatly appreciated. I am so grateful for all your support 💖✨🌈
I hate to ask but I need help affording some necessities while I try and get a job. I have had to keep putting off working due to different health issues I’ve been having (first it was my severe eczema and then the issues I’ve been having with my eyes that are directly caused by my immunosuppressive injections that I have to take for my eczema). Next is to get treatment for my adhd, which will def make finding a job easier, but I can still look while I try to get that handled.
Mainly I need help with affording kratom, an herb I use to treat my chronic fatigue and pain. Sadly it’s expensive and it’s the only thing that keeps me from being in bed 24/7. I appreciate anything anyone can do to help.
Here’s my paypal link for anyone that doesn’t want to go through ko-fi. https://www.paypal.me/gemfemme24?locale.x=en_US
Thank you all again for your support. It means a lot and I’ll always be grateful ✨🧚🏾
There’s a new ointment I need for my face and my insurance is refusing to cover it. Looks like I may have to pay out of pocket for the privilege of not having a face covered in eczema so bad that it makes me eyelids swell 😭😩
[ID: a pink and blue tropical themed graphic with various beach-themed decals around the sides. A pink square in the middle contains black text that reads: "Beryl and Ivy's Summer Survival Fund". Underneath a teal-colored line, there is a photo of Ivy (a light-skinned biracial person with a black shirt, purple overalls and a gray ombré wig) and Beryl (a light-skinned afrolatine trans woman with curly brown and pink hair, a gray shirt and vest, and a tan-colored backpack). Next to the photo is more text that reads: "Beryl and Ivy are a fat disabled bi+trans couple of color in need of community support to get through the summer!". Under a yellow line are Ivy's paylinks, as well as text that reads "gfm+registry at link.tree/stemmonade!" end ID]
reposting again since traction is completely stalled again and i really need help. Ty to everyone who has reblogged previous versions of this post, and to folks who are new: my wife and i are two disabled bi trans folks of color, and our disabilities make it extremely difficult to find consistent work. as a result, we need help affording basic necessities as well as things like bills and other emergency expenses. on top of all that, our household of predominantly Black disabled trans folks have been served an eviction and our mediation hearing is next week (Aug. 5th, 2022). we urgently need folks' support to help both my wife and i get through the next few weeks, as well as to make sure my family can survive beyond our current housing crisis.
if you are able to contribute and/or support, you can send $$ directly via my pay apps (please leave the star emoji in the note, do NOT use words like donation or mutual aid), to our gfm, or by becoming a patron! we also have a gift registry of items we need+want if folks want to support us that way. anyways, thanks for reading+for your support!
Hey everyone, my partner and I are a gay trans Latine couple and we’re struggling with homelessness right now while we try and find work and a place to stay. We can’t find a shelter that will take us both and our support dog so we’ve been trying to keep sheltered in motel rooms while we search. As prices are higher over the summer, we need $90-100 per day to keep a roof over our heads. It’s especially important for me to have regular access to a restroom as well because of the side-effects from the medication I’m on.
Any help covering shelter or food is greatly appreciated. We are also very behind on some important bills that really need to get covered very soon.
