BIRTHDAY MONTH'S ESSENTIALS $375+ DEADLINE 16/06/2026 May's goal didn't meet, but I'm not carrying that forward into June, because Alhamdulillah I didn't d!e. I made the money stretch by eating less, forgetting to eat, and forgetting to take care of myself😹👍🏻 June minimum for basic survival: $375 ($250 groceries, $90 utilities + water, $35 internet + phone data) This is before meds, and before the building maintenance fee landing this month. With IDR continuing to collapse against the dollar, I'm hoping the $375 covers the maintenance invoice too. I genuinely don't know yet. It's also my birthday month. I'd really like to spend it not thinking about whether I can afford groceries. That would be nice. Monthly pledges are the most sustainable way to support this. One-off contributions also help. Sharing this post costs nothing and extends reach beyond exhausted circles. This keeps me fed, medicated, and able to sustain the mutual aid infrastructure and writing I've been building. The work continues either way. It's just harder when I'm hungry. Support links in bio / QR code on the poster.
