To my friends & community out there, 

It’s been a minute since I’ve been able to connect with many of you. I finally made it back to SF after a long summer away TRUELY DEEPLY missing this place. I would say that the journey was all good change & healing, but that would not be truthful. In truth, it was a misstep on my path. I realized not long after I left that the love & support from community resources in practicing harm reduction were right here outside my front door the whole time. We live, we learn. Sometimes what that looks like is fucking up pretty hard. I’m learning how to live with that mistake of abandoning ship. The only way is through. & through it I will go. 

I found a great place to live starting Dec 1st! It’s affordable/is rent controlled - & I am in urgent need of some financial support in order to secure my spot asap/get set up in my first month. To make the move happen I am humbly reaching out to my community for assistance in facilitating a transition that will bring more stability back into my life. The need for a deposit is rather urgent, in addition to acquiring a bed & accounting for a month’s worth of groceries/very basic needs while I get back on my feet & plant some healthy new roots.

In this phase of regrounding & recentering it is my hope to soon have more capacity to be involved in & giving back to community. I miss more than anything being a creative collaborator & active participant in the queer cultural paradigm shifts we create here in this place, in this magical city. 

For those who have already contributed to this drive - thank you, thank you thank you. I feel so much love, gratitude & appreciation for the support folks have shown.
