Yup, that's me. You're probably wondering how I ended up in this situation.

Thanks to your support, I was able to survive an extra couple months, after my employment ended and the job market imploded. Since then, there have been some very stupid updates:

-My apartment building became infested with mice, to the point of them nesting inside appliances, cookware, the bathroom and basement. While I live in an old building, there were several large holes and entry points throughout the interior and exterior of the building. My landlord had neglected the issue for some time, and only began to act after the county and legal aid got involved. I'm happy to report that the issue is finally being taken seriously and resolved, though it'll take some time for pest control to fully eradicate the rodent population and seal up entry-points.

-I've continued to undergo further medical diagnostics, regarding sciatica and intersexism. Unfortunately, while the evidence still points towards a larger DSD/intersex condition, and sciatica, everything has come back inconclusive. I'm seeking a second opinion from an intersex clinic in Rochester.

-I was coordinating a move out of state with extended relatives, but have discovered it would be inhospitable and a controlling environment. I was lead on for over a month. Attempting to coordinate this move took valuable time away from finding resources here, in the Twin Cities.

-My bank fucked me over, and despite filing a dispute against Homebase to get my account out of the perennial red; abruptly, this morning, rescinded that dispute.

I'm going to be raising some funds. I'll give myself the next couple weeks to move out, that way I give my roommate and landlord about a month's notice of me leaving, so they're more prepared. I'll be factoring in around a month's worth of expenses, with that in mind. I'll also ensure that I have the means to put my more valuable possessions into a nearby storage locker, as I prepare to get checked into a homeless shelter. I'll do a rough breakdown of costs, for transparency's sake:

(Dec 1, 2025 6:37 PM Update- Thanks to donations from viewers like you- I've been able to get out of overdraft and pay my phone bill!)

(Dec 1, 2025 11:35 PM Update- Thanks y'all! I'll now be able to put my belongings into a storage locker!)

-$697.50 in rent (have some of last month's balance unpaid, and at least want to pay part of this month)

-~$25 in utilities (Dec. 2, 5:46 PM update- Happy to report I've raised enough for 3/4 of my utilities!)

This really sucks, but I truly think going to a homeless shelter for a few months, being connected to wraparound services, and continuing my medical diagnostics is my best path forward, to attain more independence and a more stable life. I'm hoping long-term I can return to college, in a different field. I'll be spreading this around, please share if this comes across your feed. Even if you don't have the means to spare financially, that valuable mindshare is vital. ;)
