I’ll try to keep this short. There’s a longer story in the link below.
A lot of you probably already know that I really don’t like having to ask for financial help, let alone a second time. This past month/month-and-a-half has been extremely stressful as far as getting through school, surviving, and trying to find a place to live, and now the culminating point is whether I’ll be able to stay in the cheap apartment I finally found, end up back at home and losing all the big opportunities for my career I gained last semester, or worse, end up without a roof over my head. (That’s also a big part of why the comic update I promised never got finished, at least yet.)
Getting a job is phenomenally tough here, even just at a grocery store, and who knows, the fact that I’m transgender might be playing against me. I only need help surviving my first month here, after which I’ll be getting a financial aid refund from school that’ll cover another month of rent and let me finally get groceries so I don’t have to just be living off of rice, beans, and water – and that’s worst-case scenario where the job search is still all for naught after that long.
Any donation of any size would be indescribably appreciated, and the total amount I need isn’t much – just about $550. I’ve been planning on completing Stella’s story as a series of short tales in written form with a few illustrations, and I’ll be including a list of everyone who has helped me stay afloat as a thanks.

And again, thank you to everyone in advance.
