So @packetcharmer and I have been discussing of using our soon-to-be-owned Tesla and a trailer to help trans people move out of shitty households.
There's a lot involved in moves, of course, but having free movers with their own vehicle & enough networking connections to help get a job & a place to stay counts for something, I think.
@Ulfra_Wolfe @packetcharmer Ummm, if you are able to go through with this... could you maybe consider me for one of the people you help? Trapped in the middle of nowhere Georgia with a mom who thinks I'm influenced by the devil for being trans. And can't find a job over here. I DO get social security disability for my autism, so I could possibly be able to bring in some money in the meantime of trying to find a job.
@BadWrongFun @packetcharmer We'd be more than willing, the only hard part is finding a place for you. We have transport squared away, but don't quite have housing infrastructure ^^;
@Ulfra_Wolfe @packetcharmer Alright. I understand it takes time and RESOURCES to do this kind of thing.
@BadWrongFun @packetcharmer I want to get more organized, have a map put up, and have people willing/able to give crash space to put up their offers, including time limits if only temporary.
@packetcharmer @BadWrongFun The community has a surprising amount of resources. My only issue is incompatibility/abuse and potential fallouts involved there. I'd hate to think that would come up much in this community, but well. It kinda does in any, and there's responsibility involved. But I'm sure we'll figure it out as we go.
@Ulfra_Wolfe @BadWrongFun I’ve been looking at the possibility of purchasing our own aluminum trailer so we wouldn’t always need to worry about renting trailers when we move people. It’s actually not too expensive and would allow us to make whatever modifications to make moving easier.
