I'm a small (miniscule) indie writer with too many migraines and not enough income. If you'd like to help, check out my Ko-fi and consider buying something or tipping. It helps keep the lights on and the cats fed!

Due to migraines I'm now on medical leave from work. I've applied for EI but I'm sure I don't have enough hours to qualify (because my migraines made me miss a lot of shifts). So I'm running an ongoing fundraiser for December's rent, bills, and groceries.

A momentous occasion: finally gave in and got myself some Parkinson's Approved™ footwear: spent 75 bucks, but at least I won't have to fiddle with shoelaces anymore. Next comes phasing out button up shirts, which will be a sad process.
Weekend goal at 55/500, overall December goal at 120/3000!

Conflict is inevitable. If you do any sort of organizing, you’re going to work with people you don’t like.
Learn to manage conflict. Both between you and someone else, and between other people.
The beautiful part is that working through conflict together can actually build stronger bonds.

This is a powerful illustration from Amnesty International depicting “The Box” at Alligator Alcatraz.
This is where they would put detainees to torture them.
In the hot sun, swarmed by insects.
This was used as a torture device.
ICE and DeSantis must answer for these crimes against humanity.
