I fucking hate this so much. I hate this so fucking much, but I can't continue to stay silent anymore while my integrity is continuing to be misconstrued and people keep getting hurt. This statement details my experiences while living with Noir Enigma (@/thenoirenigma) when I was homeless.

I feel really unseen currently. I don't know if folks see my posts, but I'm disabled, I don't make enough with my current job to survive, and my situation is becoming more dangerous in the current climate.

I'm doing everything I can, but I cannot survive without help.

💠 ko-fi.com/therosecleric
It’s a bit demoralizing to have to post on social media like this, but I’ve been in a bad situation for a very long time. I struggle deeply with opening up about my personal life, but I feel like I have to be this vulnerable in order for anyone to understand the gravity of my situation. I have been officially diagnosed with Dissociative Identity Disorder, and have spent the past year attempting to recover from CPTSD. In short, I have multiple disorders stemming from multiple traumatic situations and incidents that have occurred to me over the course of my life, but especially in the last decade. Thanks to Medicaid, I am fortunate enough to have 2 different therapists and a psychiatrist. As of today (9/11/2025) I do not wish to share details beyond this. Do not speculate about my personal life. My arthritis has worsened significantly because of the stress I am under. While I am seeking healthcare for this new development, life has become substantially more difficult because of the adjustment to constant pain. I have been at risk of homelessness since July. I have a job, but I do not make nearly enough to support myself through survival. I have been looking for jobs that are accommodating to my disability, with no luck as most of them require relocation or hybrid work environments. I have opened commissions of various types - including video editing, art commissions and tarot readings - but my commissions aren’t consistent enough for me to build a stable income off of. Because of the current administration, it has become more difficult to acquire food. The Big Ugly bill that was passed has put me at risk for having my SNAP benefits taken away. If you know me, I have had to have an additional monthly grocery fund from time to time to buy groceries/cover bills, as I provide food for & cook for my entire household. Until I find stable income, I will likely continue to need assistance like this. I have dropped out of multiple TTRPG projects because of the above circumstances. The community within the TTRPG space I have is very important to me, but I feel I cannot keep up with anyone because I am constantly fighting for survival. I have remarked that I feel unseen, and it is because I feel like I have to be entertaining for people to care about me as a human being. It goes without saying that I need help, and I need help badly. I don’t want to have to keep asking for help, but asking for help is my only option. I don’t enjoy having to list my marginalizations for people to have empathy (I honestly feel like I shouldn’t have to share them) but in this current political climate, it is exceedingly dangerous for me to be one emergency away from being on the streets. I’m not making enough to cover my living expenses, and to try and ignore my circumstances in favor of playing TTRPGs or videogames would be completely detrimental to my survival. To everyone who has supported me the past few years - I deeply appreciate you. Whether you liked and shared my art, enjoyed my performance on an AP, or commented on any of my work, every bit of support I have cherished and treasured. There have been many of you who have donated to me out of kindness, and I feel like I can’t thank you all enough. Even with my circumstances, I am committed to making artwork, and have opened a Patreon for those who would like to support my artwork. If you would prefer to make a one-time donation, you can help in the following ways: Ko-fi || @therosecleric Venmo / Cashapp || @therosecleric / $therosecleric Thank you for reading.

t would be cool if y'all grounded your support of sex workers, NSFW artists, trans women and such in the fact that it's the right thing to do and not in the fact that they might come for you later. We are people with lifes worth living too.

Stuff has been bothering me for a while, and the list kept getting longer so here's baby's first video essay featuring the CRiT awards. This includes my thoughts on the recent paid promotions, resharing of AI art and the lack of transparency from the team.
