Disgusted with the latest gig job: answering phones for NPR and PBS pledge drives for 15¢/minute. Yes, $9/hour.

They don't share pay until after very unsupported training -- and then I couldn't log into most of their software for my first shift.

Needless to say, I'm looking.

Still short by about $200 for rent. And still waiting to start the new gig. Also, if you know of a good gig that is hiring (I don't drive), would love to know more. Current one will be remote.

Thanks!

Omg a friend in LA has taken up painting. He likes painting people and animals, so I asked if he could paint his husband catching the bouquet at my wedding. And mutual friend Scott should be in it, too, because he also lined up.

I will keep you posted.

Two years ago when I was still living in a tent, I started a support line for long-haulers. I'm housed now, and we need to expand our line to accommodate for the influx of callers. We need more help answering calls & funding. To volunteer:

As twitter falls, I say to myself "now I know what it feels like to be a refugee" and I simultaneously realise that I lead a life of such insane privilege and entitlement.

No, having to leave a social media platform is not like having to leave your homeland. What a total dick thought.

I miss you, friend. I keep you in the sunniest place in my home. You never had enough light in life, especially living under an overpass, moving around at night to keep safe. You were loved.

Happy birthday, Louisa.

Idc what you think of mutual aid anymore.

Hard to see, sobbing rn. Sorry for typos. 2 years ago, I lost my friend Jake. Couldn't afford his 💙 meds. 9/4/21. Another good friend is in danger. No transport to med care. No electric. Heat in the 90s.

I can't lose her too.

Nothing is more tiring and back-breaking than anger and stupidity. The relentless bitterness over what has or has not been done to us or for us. There is no harvest in that field, and the gardener ultimately dies in a dry patch of land, alone.
