The next time you hear someone bring up the racist myth that Native Americans are lucky because we don't pay taxes, keep this image in your mind: these are the taxes I owe for this year that I have no realistic way of paying back cause I'm broke:
This & my medical debt is why all of my followers (& their friends!) should join my Patreon/contribute to my PayPal/Venmo so that I can do the stuff I have to do while cranking out more tweets, poems, art, and stories for everyone.

I'm very worried about my health lately because besides feeling like I'm getting a cold, I've been very brain-fogged. Also, my teeth don't ache; instead, they randomly sting my nerves leaving a weird tingling feeling. It's ominous.
proof of my ill health going untreated is the gradual decay of my thinking & output. Very hard to remember what I was doing. For example I've made and lost this tweet thread 2 times already.
It didn't help that I tried backing up and deleting my cookies and have apparently done bad things to my browser settings that I can't undo. Twenty years ago I would have had the focus to chase down this problem, all I can do now is vaguely flail.
I was trying to en masse migrate settings from one profile to my other one. To recap

I'm broke
the IRS wants its pound of flesh
I have urgent medical needs that I can afford & oh yeah while having memory issues, I managed to hobble my PC which helps me remember stuff
So if you can share, join, and contribute to this strange cult called "Keeping Mari Alive & Productive" please do.

Thank you for all your help. I'm sorry I have to ask, and I'm sorry that I'm so bad at coherently asking.

Some days I am just awake with no memory of waking; not knowing which door i came from, entering a closet of consciousness from a bright sunlight & birch tree scented outdoor dream into the acrid smell of seared steak which fills the starry home in my mind. #endofclickbait
I live like an empress, having gone from homelessness at 19 to living on a goodwill twin bed with a fitted sheet & pillows of my own that no one can steal by age 44. I have a bed of my own that stays in the same place every night. Worn and sagging and mine.
The box springs have cut my hand in my frantic dash to find my phone when I wake up blind without my glasses and unaware of my current bank balance—the exact ticking debt I owe today. Good thing I can access the internet any time I want.

Then I see the text.

I've just been disqualified from SSDI, which means I'm about $900 poorer every month, since the cut off is 1250 and I make just under ~2000. My rent is $1530 a month which leaves me with about 456 for meds, medical bills, food, and utilities. this on the heels of losing Patreon ImageImage

I don't CARE how they interpret my actions because I can't control that. All I can do is follow the 7 teachings of my tribe . I want to heal things & see criminals brought to justice in a fair manner. I want ignorant people to learn and reform & redress. but at the same time >
people are angry. im angry, but I don't want to punch trump supporters in the face. I want cops to stop shooting Black and Indigenous people. I want cops defunded or disarmed or removed. I want the ignorant people to learn and empathize with the harm they've caused.
i know it's a moonshot. But I want to strive for it even when there are Nazis in the streets. Oppose injustice, bring criminals to justice and let people learn and reform. There will be individuals who can't accept this. People whose family and friends

January 30: The WHO declares the coronavirus a global health emergency.
January 30: Trump suggests that the coronavirus is under control in remarks at a manufacturing plant in Michigan:
We have very little problem in this country at this moment — five [cases].
And those people are all recuperating successfully. But we’re working very closely with China and other countries, and we think it’s going to have a very good ending for us. -Trump January 30 2020
January 31: Trump suspends entry to the US for many — but not all — categories of people traveling from China, a move which some epidemiologists warned at the time was “more of an emotional or political reaction” than a public health
