Hi this is Xtian and Rufus' crowdfund for help moving spring 2026. At the end of February I was unexpectedly asked to move out of my apartment. This is not what I had planned for spring.

I need to get my car fixed up, find a place to move to, and need support to help me make it happen. My dog rufus has to come with me, he goes where I go. My car needs brakes, tires, more than that too. I'd like to find an inexpensive one bedroom but that feels absurd right now with the housing market in my area as tight as it is.

Everything helps. Interacting when you see this online helps. Posting about it helps. Donations help.

I have also been doing pet and house sitting for a couple years now. Hire me to pet sit! Or odd jobs! Contact me at xtianreader gmail dot com!

Buy comics from my comic book store! (www.comicsmongers.com)

Thank you for caring about what happens to me and rufus. We want to plan our silly little plans for our silly little lives. Housing insecurity makes me very nervous and I hate moving. I just wanna get it over with.
