hey again, beryl here! eternally thankful for all the help with getting me what i need to apply for+start my electrician apprenticeship! i am making this post because i need help paying our share of rent this month ($554 due 5/1). im still waiting on a few documents before i can even apply for my apprenticeship, and i have been applying to jobs in the meantime, but i havent heard back from anywhere so we are definitely going to need help so we can keep our housing. anything folks can spare helps a ton!
i have venmo, cashapp, and my husband has paypal, if you donate leave a house emoji in the payment note!
thanks so much, and please dont tag this post unless for accessibility reasons!

for anyone wondering about privacy and whatnot, i’m happy to say that the developers are pretty committed to have 0 trackers and 0 data retention. you can read more in their “about” section, but here’s the basic important stuff:
Ugh, was having a great time mocking my recently imprisoned rival when I noticed the camera positioning makes it so that I appear behind the bars, thus framing me as trapped in a metaphorical prison of the narrative, now my whole day is ruined. Fuck.
I get it, man. The other day, I survived a shootout, only to realize that a stray bullet went through a mirror in such a way as to look from the camera’s perspective like I got shot in the head through the mirror, so now I have to acknowledge that something that could be reasonably referred to as “me” really did die that day, and it’s just like “jfc, gimme a BREAK”
ugh dont even get me started on how the other day i tried to sit on the throne of my conquered foe and light a cigar to celebrate my victory but the lighter wouldnt work and it had to be lighted by the vizier who used to work for my enemy but that i enlisted to work as a double agent and help me in my coup. that jerk afterwards said with a devilish smile “ill always be at your service my liege” and i just KNOW that he said that exact same thing to the previous ruler. signifying that my victory was phyrric since i am still caught in an endless cycle of violence and betrayal. that really spoiled the whole mood
