So basically, the amount shown in his YouCaring to go for his operation is basically bullshit. Not that I expected any different, but thought maybe it was something like a locked account that doesn't become available until it's goal is reached or the Youcaring is cancelled by the recipient.
... did he just get a Mexican gang tattoo?
That's kinda the magic with Phil. He hit rock bottom over a decade ago, some how found a jack hammer and keeps sinking lower.
Ah, gotcha. Mistook it for the 3 dot Mi Vida Loca tattoo. Also read 5 dots could mean you spent time in prison (as someone said above). I guess an involuntary psych hold is the same as 10 years in Folsom.
Yeah its way to eloquent for him
How fucking hard is it to take a ruler to make a straight line on that star?
So its a tattoo meant for white men.

UPDATE - The Situation with my QMB - Qualified Medical Benefit - 8 December 2017
Also, the comments section is moderated by a committed ANTIFAscist.
Government, sometimes...
On Monday morning December 4th, I spoke with Multnomah County Aging and Disability Services - They are going to immediately reinstate my QMB Qualified Medical Benefit where the State of Oregon will pay for my Medicare premium each month - I could still very much be on the hook for another $134.00 premium for Medicare in January depending on how fast/slow my application is processed.
On Thursday I got the approval of my QMB by the State of Oregon - however I am going speak with Social Security on Monday, with a human being at a local Social Security office to tell them that Oregon is paying my Medicare Premiums and eventually SSA must pay me back for the first premium (and hopefully the last) they wrongfully took last week.
With that said, I need to be able to make January's rent and Electric bill - as well a $70 removal fee for my couch so I can start construction on my queen bed in my living room - all totaling about $400.00 I have to make so I don't lose my housing.
On a final note - For the longest time, I have sought to try to keep politics separate from the personal. I have long deemed this fundraiser a personal thing as reclaiming one's bodily anatomy and right to gender self-determination. I have paid the price to be the non-binary transgender woman I am very dearly - I suffered 5 years 8 months of houselessness to make it to today to keep telling my story.
There are nasty people out there who wish to do bodily harm against me that leave their racist/xenophobic, classist, ableist, and transmisogynist hatred in the comments section. These people are called Fascists. They do this because they have time on their hands (and no lives) and just wanna hurt someone who happens to be Latina, Trans, and is Neurodivergent and is having surgery in 166 days. The Facebook Plug-in Comments Section that powers the comments section is no platform for their hateful messages.
Here is the principle behind "No Platform" -
The (not new) strategy from the fascist transmisogynist lot called Kiwi Farms is to continue to harass and harm me - there are harassing me through the comments section of my YouCaring Fundraiser for surgery - they have a stated goal of making me houseless. Given past harassment from Kiwi Farms (while I was houseless) , I have every belief that they will actively resort to violence when their own efforts to socially isolate me and/or economically destitute me just fail. and they are failing.
I am going to request for everyone to do their utmost best to share my surgery fundraiser, this absolutely includes cis people stepping up pulling more of the weight if you call yourselves "allies".
Accomplices are needed from this point out
"Allies" is not enough. I need accomplices .
As an antifascist, I will deny these people their right to speak out their hateful views here - No platform for fascists, ever.
