Long story short: I’m an asylum seeker in France now. I don’t know how long this process will take, but for I still can’t officially work here. So I’m looking for any opportunity to earn money to be able to pay for rent and food. Please, read and share this post ❤️‍🩹 ko-fi.com/illustory

WE NEED HELP
Please, read and share this!
(text version of the pics above)
We are a group of queer artists, and we are in big trouble.
In April 2025, we immigrated to France, seeking a safe place to live and make art.
Our humanitarian visas expired a year ago.
Since then, we have been trying to get legal status in France.
To be able to work, open a bank account, get health insurance and just have some basic human rights.
We spent a whole year fighting for our lives against Strasbourg Prefecture and we lost.

All this time we couldn't properly work, so we were burning our savings.
In August, all three of us were denied a residence permit.
According to the Prefecture, the only option for us To stay legally in France is to become asylum seekers.
About a week ago, we sent out our applications for the asylum.
Now we are looking at another indefinite stretch of time, before we are summoned to Paris for interviews.
It might be two months, three months, half of a year or even more... no one knows for sure.

We had planned for a year without documents max, and now it's been a year and a half already.
No matter how hard we tried to stretch our savings, they have run out.
Currently, we don't have enough money to pay for rent and food in November.
It's hard for me to admit that, but we are in huge trouble, with all our hopes and plans ruined by the French bureaucracy.
We really need your help and every little bit matters, so I came up with some options for how you can support us.

It is going to cost me over £60 to go to 1. a training and 2. a meeting at my Bristol job (tomorrow and then in 2 weeks). This is just the train and associated buses and doesn't include coffee. How is it £26 for a return train ticket to go from Cardiff to Bristol?

I love tv. I have only seen 12 of these. (This might be because I watch the same like 8 shows on repeat, but that is neither here nor there).

I was happily petting my cat, when he suddenly jumped straight up in the air. This kind of freaked me out, because that's not really normal for him at 14. He started pawing the air and leapt up over to the ottoman. There's a bug. A very small bug.

I really hope tickets are still left for something when they go live to the public tomorrow. I am really afraid I am going to miss out. I wish I could have memberships to all the things.

it is incredibly fucked up that the UK government and police consider it a much worse crime to wear a t-shirt or wave a placard with 'palestine action' on it than to block ports and attack lifeboats

I love reading articles about budget meals and finding I can eat literally NONE of them. This is why I eat the same boring shit on repeat. That and I'm lazy. And hate cooking.

If this doesn't result in him going to prison I'm fucking done with my country. Only Sunday I read the riot act to a few friends over this. the RNLI are there to aid anyone in trouble at sea, not just the people you like. If you stand with Black Shirts you are on the wrong side of history.

Ok I have finally done a task I have been putting off. It most definitely took WAY longer than it should, which is the opposite of what usually happens when I procrastinate on something.

The journey isn't over, but it's worth taking a moment to reflect on this.

AL standings column from 6/24 show the Red Sox in 15th place out of 15 teams. Next to it, AL standings column from 9/20 shows the Red Sox in 3rd place out of 15 teams.
