i’m alive, don’t worry
i basically haven’t looked at tumblr in weeks and weeks and i’m torn between missing tumblr-only friends and being free of the discourse. you people need to follow me on twitter, i think.
also things w/ dara are going amazingly, in case anyone was worried.

DACA Renewal Reminder
If your DACA protections are set to expire before March 5, 2018 you will have until October 5, 2017 to apply for one last renewal.
Spread this image or info on all your social media! Make sure everyone that needs to reapply gets the chance.
Also get a job maybe. Being that immature you're never going to make anyone happy. You are not stable, and you really need to work on yourself to make your life anything but miserable
lol actually i have an amazing partner that loves me and like, i’m the stablest i’ve been in years, so fuck off.
If you're so poor, why is your focus on a 700 buck phone. Your priorities are all sorts of fucked up
my focus is on a phone i can depend on and use for a few years to come, which means it prob. ought to be a relatively high-end one. there’s no point buying cheap phones if i have to replace them every year.
THE BITTER DROP: AN INTERACTIVE NOVEL
In Svet-Dmitrin, it’s the eighth anniversary of the victory of the Czarist White Guard against the Revolutionary Red Guard. The citizenry is more discontent and oppressed than ever.
In the midst of this, Rabbi Chaim Shlomovich Vidal and his two pupils, Lev and Mogila, arrive in the city to stay with one Anzu Tamiratovich Menelik, a lonely necromancer-doctor who harbours a lonely secret: though he played a key part in the Revolution, he has been forgotten and cast aside by those he once called comrades.
So! This is NVL format (at least for the time being—it could certainly change), though there are no art assets as of yet. It’s being written in ink and implemented in JavaScript with some help from my friends.
Please check it out! And do give feedback, it’s extremely useful, as I’m working on a longer, more comprehensive demo right now!
so hey, this is still a thing! i’m working on a new demo, coming january 19, but you can still take a look at the old one, see how the finished thing will look and play!
incidentally immigration laws are bullshit and looks like if we want a fiance/spousal visa for dara, we’re gonna have to either lawyer up or magically find me a job that pays 18.5k a year. 😬
the good news is that they’re eligible for a youth mobility visa, which is also a better arrangement bc then they’d be in the UK independent of whether they’re with me or not, which is a healthier arrangement.
anyway we’re gonna be using those 2 years a youth mobility visa gives to like, figure out if we’re Actually Compatible and then we’ll See.

hey. i’m afraid i really have to ask for help, again.
i’m once again trying to raise funds for a new phone, because my old phone has started just shutting off at random and showing an empty battery despite being at 80% charge two minutes previously.
previous fundraising attempts did not work out as well as i’d hoped and then the money had to go towards food, rent and other necessary expenses. i’d been living from crisis to crisis for 11 months and had absolutely no financial security. now that i’m securely housed again, i want to fix the next big problem: the fact i can’t depend on my phone to work, and thus could likely get stranded far from home.
i’m a gay, gender non-conforming/trans jew living in poverty. i’m severely disabled due to chronic pain, chronic fatigue, nerve damage, psychosis and severe ADHD. my mobility is awful, so i have to rely on my phone to a) get around safely b) get transportation back home quickly if i suddenly crash in the middle of an errand c) get to and from shabbat services, currently my only regular social contact. last time my phone shut off with no warning, i almost ended up stranded in town after dark, during a cold snap.
i’ve set up a ko-fi, so donations go here. even £3 helps immensely and eventually i hope it’ll all add up to enough to afford a decent phone with a good battery life.
i’m aiming to raise about £700 total, so i can afford a dependable model.
there’s some more info under the readmore.
i know i’ve not been around much, but part of that is that i’ve been busy and part is that i’m kind of getting worse in terms of illness and i don’t have the fucks to spend on tumblr rn. please reblog and/or donate, bc i’m desperate at this moment and i really don’t want to have to stay within a block of my flat for the foreseeable future. i want to at least be able to attend shabbat services. :(

i’m multiply disabled, estranged from family and living on benefits rn. i’ve just recently stopped being homeless/insecurely housed. things are pretty stressful right now.

Could i get some help? Im a schizophrenic trans woman whos been in and out of homelessness since having been outed to my already-abusive parents. I had to pay a $200 fine for not having paid rent on time last month and im pretty much out of food/meds/bus money for the rest of the month. I only have maybe two cetirizine pills left and they cost $40/m, though the rest of my meds are thankfully covered. My paypal and e-transfer address is moosnator@gmail.com. id prefer etransfers bc paypal takes 2-3 days to come in and im an absolute mess without those pills. Any help is truly appreciated 💙

as disclosure, i do theoretically have money from pre-orders of interactive fiction i’m working on, but that money’s in limbo. i have no idea when itch.io is planning on sending it to my paypal.
and on that note, if you’d prefer, you can pre-order my IF. you can play a preview here for free! it’s new weird fiction heavily influenced by russian-jewish and russian folklore, traditions, culture and history.
help a trans and gay jewish author out?
