please help my gf get a working phone

hi internets, my gf’s phone has been on it’s last legs for months and tonight it became flat out unusable. It was a hand-me-down, 8 year old piece of junk before, but the screen has been slowly falling off in literal pieces for the last couple months and now it’s got all kinds of wild colors and lines and blackouts on what’s left of the screen.

We’re both extremely low income, disabled, have no car, and we would love to just get something super cheap but minimally functional on ebay but she has to get something approved by her provider, Safelink, which is a government phone program that makes it possible for her to afford a phone bill in the first place. It looks like she could get something decent that wouldn’t need replacing for a reasonable while at around $200.

Having a working phone is pretty necessary for emergencies and just a really basic level of quality of life for her, especially with adhd and working long shifts where things like podcasts really help get her through her physically intensive, $9 an hour job.

If you can spare anything we’d both really appreciate it! Anything at all helps, and about $200 should be plenty. pls reblog if you can’t donate, thanks!

Alternatives to villainous redemption arcs:

• Revealed that villain’s schemes secretly served the greater good, somehow
  
  
• Villain switches teams out of expedience; protagonists overlook the fact that they’re still a huge jerk because they now benefit from it
  
  
• Context or status quo altered so that villain’s previously harmful actions become constructive and useful with no changes on their part
  
  
• It turns out that villain wasn’t actually responsible for the one specific thing the protagonists are trying to stop or get revenge for; everything else they clearly did do conveniently ignored
  
  
• Villain never repents or makes amends for any of the awful stuff they did, but they’re really hot, so no one cares
  

All of these apply to Revolver Ocelot

but! update on my s*xual assault situation: my last day at my job is friday! it was a seasonal position and they may or may not hire me for a full time position but im not gonna get my hopes up bc even tho i worked well and hard, they don’t want any extras to pay i think. so at least i wont have to be around my ex-supervisor again. i might need help in the mean time after (i have a second part time job at a laundromat but it’s little pay and i work two-three days outta the week) but im confident in finding another main job again. thank you to everyone who stood by me and shared their encouraging words and stories. it helped me not quit on the spot with everything going on like my grandma being on her de*thbed. i really am thankful to & for the tumblr community.

as of 12/28/2019, my work with my primary job has ended. im honestly a bit relieved i wont have to be in that environment anymore, but this also puts me & my family in a vulnerable position in the mean time until i find another job.

• i don’t make enough at my other job to cover our rent, groceries and rides to my grandmother’s doctor appointments/visits to see her (& to get to interviews!).
• if i can raise $700, that would be one less thing i have on my shoulders to carry, as i am also planning on petitioning for financial aid so i can go back to school this spring or summer, whichever works out first.

here are some ways to donate and assist us if you feel moved to:

Help two homeless black transmen out

Hey y’all I’m Stephen ((left in the bottom pic)18 he/him) and this is my husband Elijah(right)19 he/him they/them) and as of December 2nd we were kicked out of his abusive mother’s household. I had been living with him and his family since September after being kicked out of my transphobic grandmother’s home, and from that point me and him had both worked hard to find and maintain jobs and attend school whilewe saved enough for our own place. His mother was extremely mentally/emotionally and financially abusive. She withheld his money that she owed and constantly raised the rent that we were both paying. Despite her collectively getting 400$ a month from the both of us, free labor in the form of child care for his younger sibling, forcing Eli to do all of her schoolwork for HER own bachelors degree, and him and I being the only ones to buy groceries and toiletries for the house as well as cook the majority of meals for the family of 5 living the apartment, she still kicked us out. From weeks prior she had been threatening to kick us out if we didn’t obey her and bend to her will, she has untreated Bipolar Disorder and has refused all attempts of therapy Eli had begged her to take.

She was extremely manipulative, controlling and extremely paranoid that anyone who told her no or asserted any agency for them self was her “ enemy “. She is also violently trasphobic and would constantly misgender me behind my back to my husband under the guise of it being “ impossible for me to be homophobic[read: transphobic because her dumbass can’t differentiate the two] because I was there for Eli when he transitioned “ which is a boldface lie ( she tried to subject him to conversion therapy when he first came out ).

Even if she were to take us back in (which is HIGHLY unlikely) the environment in which we both lived in was too toxic and unstable to stay in much longer

Eli suffered major mental breakdowns, psychotic episodes and suicidal thoughts and ideations while living with her ( as did I but to a lesser extent )

As of December 3rd we’ve been living in a DHS adults families without children assessment shelter facility: here’s our room.

The accomandtions we were provided were minimal at best ( one roll of toilet paper between the two of us, two moth bitten ‘comforters’ and thin white sheets, two small bars of facial soap. ) We can’t comfortably use the shower faucalities on site seeing that we are both the youngest and only trans occupiants. Even if we did decide to take the risk of showering, the showers are broken and won’t be repaired for some time.

Safety is a major issue as our lock is currently BROKEN ( despite asking for it to be fixed for three days ) and we live next to an violent domestic abusive couple that the faculity’s security refuses to deal with. Fights are commonplace as most of the other occupants are hostile at best.

Not only is safety an issue but we are responsible for providing our own food ( all food is provided is frozen and inedible ) and our own transportation. We have currently been eating one meal a day as a result. My partner has lost weight as a result of our stay. We have trying our best but given that we have taken work and school to figure out housing and fulfill the requirements necessary for our housing and benefits application ( attending appointments that take an average of 6 hours a time ) we have been unable to work at our minimum wage and seasonal jobs and been dependent on our non existent savings

As of last night 12/14/18 we were found ineligible for a permentant shelter transfer due to the social service investigators failing to preform a proper investigation of our prior housing. Because of this, we have to start the process over again and stay in this unsafe, hostile environment for another 10 days. We will have to go through the same proceedings again and reaply and start the process over.

My partner was laid off from work from not being able to attend recently, and now I’m the sole provider for our family. I get paid on a bi-weekly basis and hardly make enough to keep us afloat. Even so, I won’t be paid for another two weeks. We’re asking for help and assistance getting through the week, covering food and transportation costs for our appointments, amenities and toiletries, and various fees that apply to the application process, (documentation requests, printing at the public library, doctors visit copays, etc.)
