A big thank you to everyone who's helped me reach my current fundraiser for support. I couldn't have done this without y'all.

I replied to the following: ↷

Filling out immigration sponsorship information gets me constantly stressed and enraged at this country and does not help my state of being at all. Asking for permission to enter the country responsible for the destabilization of the lands you're from feels like asking an abuser for permission to go outside after they've isolated you from your community. I hate it. I hate it so much.

Like you have to be rich (or just have a lot of disposable income, which is a signifier of wealth) to get ONE person here. And now with the most recent "petition to get people out of countries that we're actively exploited program" (namely Haiti, Cuba, Nicaragua, Venezuela and the media's favorite: Ukraine), you need to have at least $20,000 on hand. I'm probably fucked.
