i’m not getting enough fucking enrichment. in my enclosure
again shoutout to butches who aren't tall and butches who aren't muscular and butches who are physically disabled and butches who aren't white.
thinking abt this post again... if your idea of butch hinges on whether someone is physically strong and capable, you're doing it wrong.
PLEASE DONT SCROLL. MY FAMILY NEEDS HELP. [Chronically ill nb lesbian, their chronically ill younger brother, and their disabled mom need help to move out of toxic families house]
Update: Were in Wisconsin now living with family. The moving truck to get our things here took a lot of fucking money.
We haven't been able to secure employment yet. It was supposed to b a simple transfer but our transfers were rejected bc of our amount of absences from our workplace in nh. My mom is disabled+has lung issues specifically that made it necessary for her to take multiple (APPROVED +unpaid) leave of absences throughout the current pandemic. I am chronically ill and am unable to work during attacks+particularly bad flare ups (I also took loa at the same times as my mom to ensure I wasn't bringing anything home at such crucial times as my mother and I both worked retail.) While our absences were both necessary and approved by our workplace we've been informed that the nh location is handling the pandemic much differently (read:better) than many other locations including the wi one. We ARE searching for employment.
As for our family situation: me, my brother, and my mom r living with my aunt, her husband, and my two cousins. Our relationship isn't good. This was the only place we had to go but the situation is very nearly untenable. My aunt is abusive (not to us but to her children) and I'm afraid of things escalating and us "interfering" and ending up homeless. Me, my brother, and my mom r all abuse victims and my ptsd specifically is constantly being triggered by staying here. I had a nightmare about my abuser for the first time in a long time the other night. We can't stay here long term. My aunts husband is a total creep towards my mom and she doesn't feel safe. My aunt knows this and doesn't care. We need to leave as soon as possible.
I'm never this revealing of my personal issues to strangers on the internet but I need y'all to know the situation. My family and I r so so grateful for the help we've gotten but we r still very much in need of assistance. We r seeking employment. But we need money set aside both in case we're kicked out and to start saving for a place to rent and to move all our things again+quite possibly storage. Please please please help us.
I got a job today and I start work next Tuesday but my mom is still looking and I won't b payed for a month bc they withhold the first check. We still really need a place of our own asap. Any help would mean the world to us.

thought this thread was so important so i decided to share it here. read this, and then read it again. and AGAIN.
ok those last three posts weren’t meant to go to this blog but you did go wild for that frog content huh
now this... this is the kind of content i want recommended to me
Trans butch lesbians and trans femme lesbians are both real lesbians who are neither conforming to patriarchal femininity nor faking being a woman. Trans lesbians, butch, femme, or neither are real lesbians and real women who deserve to be loved, valued, and supported for who they are and I hope all know that I love them and would die for them because they’re amazing!
fat femme lesbians. you are not less femme because of your weight. being femme has nothing to do with being dainty (aka skinny). you should never have to feel afraid of being bigger than your partner or seen as “not femme enough” because of your weight. you are beautiful, powerful, and you deserve a space in this community. i love you.

Hi everyone, I wanted to remake and update our donation post, for those who know and dont know whats going on
basically I didnt get any UI or govt help and still dont, I cannot work during the pandemic as it might kill me or disable me further, and in late june my grandfather passed away. even before the pandemic my mental health was rocky but Im in a very dark place and I really need to get a therapist and a psych who listens and are women of color, since i dont have income i cant afford that right now but i desperately need the help to pull me out of this deep and very dark hole
my partner @honeybearbutch has been experiencing transmisogynistic, homophobic, fatphobic and ableist abuse for years, since the start of the pandemic they have been trapped with their abusers 24/7, and the level of abuse and violence as dramatically increased. In early june their parents started being more vocal and open about their far right views wrt the protests and our relationship, Xochi defended me, the protesters and aggressively detested their far right anti black views. Due to this the tension in the house has been great, and homelessness has been threatened several times by all of the adults in the house and recently as of today 08/16/20 they were threatened and then assaulted by their homo/transphobic oldest brother after being abandoned at work with no way of getting home. We many need to get them into an airbnb soon but are not sure yet mostly because of the cost, I just dont want them to experience anymore physical violence.
many of you know that we started the gofundme in early june and we are only 2/3rds away from our goal!!!, we had plans to move in together pre rona and to reside in their home state and did save a little bit for it but due to their familes abuse they genuinely fear for staying there, so we are looking for places in my home state where the cost of living is 10x more expensive. where we do NOT have a savings fat enough for even a months rent for an apt here which for a one bedroom its about 1.5K+ a month. I CANT work with the public during the pandemic and my partner is probably gonna have to stop working as to not expose me to covid so that is why we are asking for so much
In the immediate as always i need $ for food and phone but also help for getting my partner and mother who both work high traffic public jobs better ppe, esp bc my mom is an older disabled black woman Xochitl needs help with their phone, transportation and esp help with food, bc they dont get paid until after the 21st, their abusive older brother has basically cut off access to their food, so unless they buy groceries for them (and their parents) they dont have food; they need at least 250 until they get paid

tldr?: Im a black mentally and chronically ill 2S lesbian trying to get mental health help and much needed safe secure housing for myself and my trans latina gf as they desperately need to escape the abuse and severe violence of their far right family. Any and everything is deeply appreciated right now, so thank you all for sharing and donating.

Hey ive been trying to be offline more for my mental health, but our gofundme has sat at the same number for over a week, and both Xochi and I are struggling. I spent most of my money on food and things for my mother and now im under 50 in my acct, my phone is over that and I need to replace my air filter due to all the fires degrading my current one faster than expected. My partner recently paid their phone bill among other things and they still need to buy groceries for them and their parents, we have had a huge delay with gofundme wrt withdrawing the funds we have raised.
still at $6,060/$15,000
$6,460/$15,000!
Hey everyone yesterday Xochitl lost their job :(
they have been slowly collapsing under the abuse and stress that they live in, which has been severely worsening their depression. A few days ago prior to the job loss they broke down and were incredibly suicidal and unstable, this layoff has only really added to their plate right now. They werent working there for long, but whilst they were there my partner has been helping me, and their parents wrt some of our expenses, and has been able to save for them to leave their abuse, so this is huge hit to both of us right now. Xochi is not in the place to go back to work for many reasons and is probably going to try to get unemployment but that still will take quite a bit of time process and receive. On a similar note my unemployment was “taken away” even though i never received a penny, i have to pay my phone this week, refill my SNRI so i can try not being crazy and i just generally need to get a few personal items i couldnt find at the store. To be honest both of us are in really dark holes and for Xochitl its going to be harder to be in contact with their abusers more frequently wrt being at home 24/7 again. The stress is eating at them more and more everyday so we are looking for a therapist who can help them cope with their surroundings better, both of us know theres only so much we can do on our own, so we really need any fucking support. We are thankful and appreciative of all the reblogs and donations past present and future.

Trans lesbians can be gender-nonconforming, butch, nonbinary, etc- trans women, especially lesbians, can have complicated relationships with womanhood and don't have to perform femininity to be accepted as women and lesbians. Respect all trans lesbians or get out 💗
