@zackarhino@Mike4Liberty@reddit_lies That’s the one I was thinking of. It was one of the alt ones I used to frequent after r/christianity turned into affirming city.
A lot of us were raised by parents who came up in the late 50’s and early 60’s when these types of names were in the norm. I once wrote a story about a mom n pop video store operating in 88. I named an employee “Zoey.” I was told “that name wasn’t a thing yet back then.” I googled it and they were correct.
I’m a diagnosed agoraphobe trapped in an abusive household. Despite 3+ years of seeking help for my disorder, my home environment—filled with constant threats, berating, verbal abuse, and a long history of physical violence—has blocked any long-lasting progress. I live in constant fear. It’s unsafe, but shelters aren’t an option for me due to my condition.
I’m working with my social worker on government housing, but waitlists are up to 10 years long. I need help now.
Remote jobs haven’t panned out due to my poor resume, and in-person work is limited with agoraphobia. I’ve made a little money via Twitter, but it’s nowhere near enough for rent.
I’m humbly asking for public support to raise funds for a one-bedroom apartment’s first few months while I build sustainable income. This will include rent/deposit, utilities, transportation, food and other essentials.
This is extremely embarrassing, but I’m out of options. I am terrified of what comes next.
I’m choosing to go through Throne over GoFundMe for privacy. My small town means a public campaign could tip off family and make things much worse.
