Deadnaming and misgendering can be hard, but always take comfort in those who know your real identity.
um fuck yes
I am sorry, first off. I hate asking for help but now things are very bad. I'm Blake H, a trans man living with my two best friends and our dogs during this fun quarantine 2020. As people may know from my prior post, I'm working through a fresh diagnosis of Ménière's disease. For people who do not understand or don't know of this disease, I deal with these symptoms literally every waking moment of my life:
Dizziness and Vertigo
Tinnitus, fullness, and clogging in my ear
Hearing loss (half-permanent in my right ear)
Imbalance, motion sickness, nausea
Rapid involuntary eye movement
Random spots of blindness, temp loss of vision
Fainting spells
Weakness and fatigue
But, I am trying to make the best of it. I have appointments made in the future to work on this. This is one expense, but this is months on now. I am functioning okay right now, thanks to help to this point. I am the only one working currently so I have to make the best of it.
What I did put aside to help with rent after the fact of things, is gone. It's been a long month here. We need a total of 715 for rent by the 1st. If anyone can help with that, I'd be beyond words.
Idk prices on that, I don't speak car, but my roommate says it isn't that much, like 50 or something. We do also need 300 there for a car payment though. Yaaay. We can't drive it regardless so even if we were to get the battery we can't drive until the payment is made. Yaaaaay.
And, last but not least. The biggest and most sudden issue:
He is not doing so well. He has a bad ear problem and they are now leaking pus and brown goop/old blood, and for him, he is old himself and I can tell it causes him a lot of discomfort and pain. But the boy wags his damn tail all day regardless. He NEEDS to desperately see a vet to get medication for his ears, we have to figure out why they're draining so badly now. I was told my roommate found a place that will take him walk-in for a couple hundred (200) so I'm going to say that's my goal for my boy Charlie here, he deserves to feel better.
If anyone at all out there can help my dysfunctional household, and help us stay afloat, I'd give you the damn world if I could. If anyone requires proof of anything here, just message me. I will answer everything anyone asks of me, especially right now. I want to live, I want my kids here to survive, I want my dogs to be okay. We need this roof.
(PayPal and Venmo are not labeled Blake but my birthname, which begins with an A, for anyone nervous about helping.)
When I say, “My anxiety is acting up,” I’m really saying, “There’s no reason to be afraid. It’s just my disorder talking, and I can do something to calm down.” It’s positive.
When I say, “My depression is bad today,” I’m really saying, “I’m not worthless and I don’t deserve to die or give up. It’s just my disorder talking, and I should get up and look for what’s good about today.” It’s positive.
When I say, “My ADHD means my brain is wired differently,” I’m really saying, “I’m not a stupid piece of shit who will amount to nothing. It’s just that my brain needs help making certain connections and chemicals, and with certain processes, and there are lots of things I can try to work with it instead of against it.” It’s positive.
Talking about and accepting my disorders is the most radically positive thing I can do. It isn’t pessimism; it’s optimism. It isn’t defeatism; it’s hope. It’s direction, and action, and learning to regain control of my life.
So I don’t give a fuck if it annoys you or makes you uncomfortable. I don’t care if you think I need to think of myself as “more than my disorders”. Because I don’t think that having disorders makes me lesser. And I’m not going to silence myself because you disagree.
You’re fucking wrong, and I won’t let my own silence be the death of me.

If you mess up, correct yourself. Don’t make a big deal out of it.
Okay, I think i have it now and i appreciate it.
I didn’t realise how much 2 million was and i couldn’t take that number down now. It should look like 2,000,000 in the notes bar.
He’s convinced that this will never reach that number, and very confident about it so Let’s prove him wrong!! He thinks this will get about 25 notes beofre it’s left in the dust.
You don’t have to do it for me. But for the point and to prove him wrong. He has to pay and everything so let’s make him suffer with it!!
I’m counting on you!!!
Remember it’s 2,000,000!
If you can’t reblog this plz never talk to me

Every once in a while, there’s a game that gets it right.
This is a summary of college only using two pictures; expensive as hell.
That’s my Sociology “book”. In fact what it is is a piece of paper with codes written on it to allow me to access an electronic version of a book. I was told by my professor that I could not buy any other paperback version, or use another code, so I was left with no option other than buying a piece of paper for over $200. Best part about all this is my professor wrote the books; there’s something hilariously sadistic about that. So I pretty much doled out $200 for a current edition of an online textbook that is no different than an older, paperback edition of the same book for $5; yeah, I checked. My mistake for listening to my professor.
This is why we download.
