Hi Tumblr. I hate to do this, but I am running out of options.

I’m Morgues, and prior to this clusterfudge I’ve been a Tumblr dork, fandom geek, and an aspiring writer and filmmaker. And this is my long story short: my soon-to-be ex up and split town on me. He was the main source of income at the time. This is a good thing in that he was abusive, sleeping around, and had dove back into drugs and gambling., His splitting town happened after I called BS and got help from domestic violence services and also pointed out that he was not doing jack about the bills we had. The downside of this is that it’s left me with those bills. Plus an eviction notice. Yup, his lack of assistance with the bills went that deep. I’m guessing the money he was making went to cocaine and booze.

I have until Tuesday to try and come up with rent either for where I live (which is $2200 due to him not paying anything for the last THREE MONTHS)  or $500 for a new place I can sublet. Otherwise I’ll be going to a women’s shelter IF they have room for me. I’m currently on a waitlist for that and I am not at the top of the list. I also don’t know what I’m going to do with my cat. I am almost more angry about that than anything – the possibility of losing my cat. He’s my stress pet and he’s old (14 years old now) and he does not deserve to go to an animal shelter because of this mess: I don’t want to lose my kitty.

I am currently unemployed and looking for full time work (I was working online as a transcriptionist but the Internet got shut down at I cannot connect via most of the wifi places in town so my income has been cut off), which is proving a little emotionally draining, but dammit I’m trying. On top of the impending divorce and dealing with the support group meetings for the abuse, I am also bipolar, suffering from PTSD (even more so now from what’s happened) and a handful of other delightful mental and physical health issues. I sucked it up and tried appealing to my family, but I’m still dead to them since I’m not straight. My mother straight up told me the little bit I talked to her on the phone that I deserved the abuse. Yeah, not going to get any help there. Another result of being queer this also means most local church assistance is also closed to me.

I am appealing to you, Tumblr, as my last ditch effort for help. Until I am LITERALLY homeless and on the street I’ve been denied assistance by local government agencies. I am currently in the middle of trying to liquidate what I own to make cash and that is hurting my heart as people are already trying to take advantage of the situation by lowballing me on the value of what I’m selling and this is how I’m trying to make ends meet and survive. 

Anything helps at this point. I’m not using GoFundMe since they take a chunk. I’m also not a big believer in something for nothing, so if you want to donate something and leave me a note with it about your fandoms or something, it will take me some time, but I will write you a drabble or make a photo edit or icons or something. Again I have super spotty internet unless I’m at the local library, but I’ll eventually get it to you.

So that’s it, my appeal to you Tumblr. I figured it couldn’t hurt since Tumblr raised enough money to save DashCon and that sad ballpit, and I have seen miracles happen for others as well.. If you can’t help, a reblog and signal boost would be appreciated. Again, I am about to be homeless as of Tuesday, June 16th if I cannot get some kind of assistance.

^SIGNAL BOOST.

tl;dr, no really, read it. C’mon VC (and others!) fandom. If just some of our followers sent her $1 yes I know paypal has a fee but humor me for a second here it would make an enormous difference to her.

She’s not looking for a free ride, she’s essentially opened commissions for the money. If you can’t give, please reblog, maybe one of your followers can.
