I really need Rauw to be on DND deluxe.

I have 3 hobbies and I’ve been neglecting all of them to some degree. That changes today. I’m going on dnd and doing some self care. I’ve been running on fumes for weeks now. I can’t help others if my mental health is fried.

UPDATE‼️ The abuser was released, judge ruled he couldn’t be held. Please if you can, donate and share. The mom and kids need to be protected and relocated. #mutualaid #helpsky

The situation from the weekend with my family just got worse. The system is so broken and now lives are in danger.
