It's come to the point that I swallow my pride and admit I need help. To those of you who may not know, I live in Florida, which even at the best of times, is extremely hostile to LGBTQ+ people. But with the result of the election, and me being a trans girl, it's not safe to stay here.
Linked on my Ko-Fi page, I have a donation goal set up with the hope that, at the very minimum, it helps me afford a security deposit on an apartment where I'm moving. I'd feel extremely guilty not doing anything in return, so with this announcement, I will also be ***opening emergency upscale commissions*** that contribute to this donation goal. I've temporarily raised my prices for this and for that I apologize, but getting myself to another state that's safer, is my top priority. I intend to return my prices to normal when I've got set back up after the move.
I really cannot stress enough how much I hate asking for donations, but if there was ever a time for me to beg, my safety being in jeopardy is it. So please, if there's anything you can spare, I would be forever grateful.
And again, if you at least want something in return for your donation, payment for commissions during this time will go straight to the donation goal.
I'm sorry for the ping but I hope you can forgive me just this once.
I feel so ashamed having to ask for help but I can't do this on my own. I've opened up a Ko-Fi donation goal to help me get me out of Florida before it gets worse come next year. Alt-Text contains the contents of the screengrab here if its hard to read. Links will be below.
