Here's the latest update: The down payment has been made (thanks to all of you who were able to help) but I still have not been approved for paid medical leave assistance. Surgery is Monday and I don't know if I'll be covered the 3 weeks I'm out of work. Any help is appreciated gofund.me/446b64d33

gofund.me/446b64d33 I have exactly two weeks until surgery. If you're able to donate or spread the word, I'd greatly appreciate it. Also I'd be happy to send a sticker and button of Raine to anyone who donated (past or present.) Just send me a dm if you want them. 🎨: Marzipan Kitty

hey y'all one of my best friends @raineomni.bsky.social is trying to get surgery to remove a cyst from their leg, and they are unable to afford the surgery costs outright. Please help if you are able and repost to spread, they are an amazing friend and deserve the help~ gofund.me/446b64d33

gofund.me/446b64d33 I'm finally getting my leg surgery, but could use some help getting the funds for the down payment. I'd appreciate any help, whether financial or spreading the word.

Remember kids: listen to your body and your limits. If you keep dancing and ignore the signs, you will regret it later. This PSA brought to you by a dingus who should know better by now what happens when I dance for hours on end

Had a fantastic time performing with the Leather and Lace crew tonight. I definitely want to bring some of those acts back in the future.

Didn't make it into top 16, but it was a good attempt. I'm excited to take the classes and watch finals tomorrow.

GOOD NEWS! Researchers at the University of Exeter have found that getting vaccinated against shingles- a painful and debilitating condition that can flare up years after infection from varicella zoster virus- not only LOWERS the risk of infection, but can also PROTECT against Alzheimer’s disease!

happy transgender day of remembrance thank you for sticking around in the hardest of times. if you haven't, you are missed dearly please live 💜

(thanks to @deanofhumans.bsky.social for the video) Here's part of one of my rounds last night. I had so much fun, and actually feel like I can see progress in my waacking.

Didn’t get around to posting it back in September, but here’s my prelims round from the Devil in the Details animation/robot battle. I didn’t make it into top 16 (close tho!), but had an amazing time and got to spend it with my crew and couple of Loyal Creatures too. ❤️ mark my words, next year…

STOP having "conversations" with ChatGPT and START talking to your stuffed animals like a normal person

We made it into the top 8! Now to rest for a moment until those start

All set for Cowfish Dance Battles tonight. Let's see how far I can make it.

Heretic Coffee in Portland, Oregon has announced that starting Nov 1st they will provide breakfast to those in the community who will be facing hunger due to SNAP benefits not being sent out in November. "we know it’s not much, but we’ll do our best to keep you fed" - Heretic Coffee #Pinks

If you are a mutual who has had their snap benefits cut or suspended and need help: reach out to me. I'm going to be donating half of my cash tips each week to help cover some of your lost money. I can't guarantee how much it will be, but anything is better than nothing.

I wouldn't usually shill for an app, but I could use the help. Upside gives a discount for getting gas (and some stores and restaurants) and if you sign up with my code it would give us both an extra 15¢ off per gallon on top of their normal discounts. upside.app.link/SQ75D

I truly believe the best thing you can do right now to support opposition is to give money to a food bank or mutual aid

The show didn't allow pictures or videos for privacy reasons, so have a quick bathroom selfie of one of my looks from last night.

If anyone around Salem is looking for a more adult themed show this Friday, I've got some fun acts planned for this one.

Happy Indigenous Peoples Day!

Goth night at the Southside Speakeasy! I've really missed goth clubs, so it's nice to have this

Today was Salem's Pride in the Park, and one of the artists was offering commissions. I had to get one and it turned out so good! 🎨: @ohzoart on Instagram

Went out to a queer picnic tonight, as we all prep for Pride tomorrow. It was nice just being able to be with community and vibe to music, a lot of people just conversing or reading and feeling peaceful for a bit.

I originally found this zine downtown a few months ago, but I'm cleaning my room and saw it again. I figure we could all use it. 1/2

The one performance I do have coming up is next Saturday (9/20) at Salem Pride in the Park! If you're going to be there, I'd love to say hi and get some pics. I'll be taking the stage in the afternoon and will be walking around before that.

I know I've been a bit absent since Furlandia, but I've had a lot of medical stuff going on. We're slowly getting that taken care of, but hopefully I'll be back to regularly performing soon. Thank you for the continued support 💜

Probably going to start opening up mobile massage appointments to cover some medical appointments.

pride is next week pride wasn't brought to you by delta air lines, microsoft, coca-cola or even the democratic party. it was brought to you by trans women throwing bricks at cops and lesbians taking care of gay men dying of AIDS during reagan. do not forget where we came from. now more than ever.

We have a very fine list of Dance Competition finalists for you all! Be sure to click the image to fully expand it!

Had a lot of fun performing at The Big Show tonight. Now that we've finished there, it is time to help @furlandia.bsky.social with their dance competition and Freestyle Fracas. Who else is looking forward to watching our dancers?

Wow what are all those rudder butts? Trying a local specialty with @raineomni.bsky.social

My dog got sick, So I need to open commissions. We don't have enough for a second ER visit. She has been vomiting and having the runs for a few days now. So I really need her to have more blood work. But I cannot get her more blood work without more money. Send a DM if interested in helping.

Still putting feelers out that I am in search of a room to live in this September in Asheville area preferably (but will move out of the area if I need to). I cannot afford any down payment outside of first month - it has to be something already established under a lease or mortgage. $600/mo budget.
