it’s impossible to communicate concepts to another person in exactly the way you envision them, because nobody experiences reality in exactly the same way, and not only do i refuse to come to terms with this fact but i will spend the rest of my life making my entire mind fall apart over it. this sounds more tormented than it is i just wish i was a mantis shrimp looking at the secret colors
one of breonna taylor’s murderers was charged with wanton endangerment for firing into her neighbors’ apartments. not for murderering a young woman in her home. but for property damage. no other charges were filed.
if you can, now would be a good time to donate to the Louisville bail fund. hundreds of protesters are currently marching with a long day ahead.
I will be returning to work on the 14th, but my CERB will be running out next week, so I will be critically low on funds from that point on. I have been aggressively searching for a second job but am seeing no results as of yet, and the hours I will be returning to won’t be enough to keep my head above water for more than one month - if that. So!
I’m offering pay-what-you-can commissions! The name explains itself, but basically just tell me what you want and pay me the amount of money you can afford to spare. ANY amount is appreciated, ANYTHING you can afford to donate is needed! I have a phone bill, rent, car payment and car insurance all coming out within the same week and absolutely no way to pay for it all so! The closer I can get the better. I can’t see myself closing these anytime soon, at least not until I can find a second job, so go ham kiddos.
Thank you for taking the time to read - and if you can’t donate, I would appreciate a reblog/share so much! Thanks! :)

the body of the post reads as follows:
I’m putting myself on semi-hiatus from TH while I focus on doing what needs to be done. I am trying to get out of an abusive household right now and although I love TH as an escape from that I need to spend more time working, even if it means losing my hobbies as a result. I will still be around a bit; if I can do any art or writing or anything, I’m sure I’ll post it, but I don’t think I will be on forum games or other forums much if at all for at least a little while. If you want to keep in contact while I’m semi-hiatus please feel free to pm me for my discord; even if I’m not on forums I still have TH open a little bit each day. I will check pms for anyone interested in buying from my sales account as well, at least daily.
This is…. really a rough thing that I am dealing with. I am pretty terrified right now. Today was a good day and then it just wasn’t, and now I’m trying to fundraise and apply for section 8 and figure out how I’m going to survive past this year. I’m just scared. I’m afraid of what’s going to happen to me and my pets. I’m afraid I’m not going to be able to get out in time. I know this seems like a really minor thing that happened but it was a violent incident, it is proof that he is escalating his abuse again, and it shook me. he’s a taekwando black belt, I don’t want to sit around and wait to see if he’ll start beating us to death.
I’m sorry for this, I’m crying right now, I’m just so worked up and scared. I’m scared they’re going to talk me into staying with them until one or both of us are dead, because “it’s not that bad” “he’s not that bad anymore.” “he just yells and throws things and uses his fists.” I moved back in because of my debt and because I was told he had stopped, that it was all better and things were fine now, and it was so stupid of me to believe that he wouldn’t start this up again. Abusers never stop being abusers. They don’t get better just because they stop beating on you for a while. Honeymoon phase is over now. I have to get out.
