Keep Dan's Head Above The Water

Hi, I'm Dan. I'm one of the hosts of a long running yu-gi-oh anime podcast, Pod of Greed. I'm also very poor.
It's been a while since the last time I made one of these, but I'll try my best.
In June, I attained part-time employment at a local grocery chain, and it's been great, especially since we're unionized. Unfortunately, I'm still a little short on keeping myself afloat. While there are great many social services I have access to that cut down on my expenses and supplement my income, such as SSI, EBT, and Section-8 housing for the disabled, I am ultimately still working with a very small pool of funds, and rising costs of living, poor financial decisions, and a desire to help support others struggling online has left me with virtually nothing. Once my rent check clears, I'll be down to $12, and most of my next paycheck will be eaten up by a credit card bill. The following two paychecks will mostly be spent on remaining smaller bills and keeping myself fed. And that's not even getting into holiday expenses.
I ask for what I hope is a reasonable amount of financial support in order to keep myself in the black and financially afloat in the coming weeks.
Current financial plans include switching phone plans, cutting unneeded subscriptions, prepping meals, and contacting the union for further financial support and advice.
