Egad, what a joyous day it is to have eyeballs on the Internet. I make Things and contend with Ailments. Welcome to chaos. Hehe.

My friend has cooked up another fundraiser bundle for me, and several amazing creators have added zines and other creations.
It’s 83% funded already, but any shares, donations, and engagement mean the world to me, as my husband and I are being evicted come Jan 31 for speaking out against our abusive ex. It’s here: https://itch.io/b/3454/fundraiser-for-lazarus-halliwell-act-2 -Allēna

I had Red Lobster for the first time in my life tonight. It was mid, except for the cheddar bay biscuits. I am thoroughly disappointed 😔. -Allēna

Emerson and I spent a lot of time out of the house today.

Well, I TRIED to perform at a domestic violence spoken word event my friend organized today.
But I got so fuckin triggered that I couldn’t do it, which honestly says a lot about how effective the writers and organizer were, and ended up eating my favorite Milwaukee comfort food, Mad Chicken, instead. Emerson was also a phenomenal comfort. -Allēna

We got a notice of termination of tenancy today.
This comes after asking our landlord for a written lease for over a year now. We have to be out on or before January 31st officially now. The language makes me wonder if it applies to the Zelda System as well, especially since the landlord sent a photo of it to a group chat with…
