Hi! We’re a plural system. Nearly all memories shared, generally 1 headmate aware at a time, and we love being plural! Multiply-disabled - PTSD, Severe ME/CFS, and others; high support needs; wheelchair/walker user. 25 years old.

We share the name Rainbow, and we use they/them pronouns and identify as transmasc collectively. Usually, we’ll start posts/replies with "(Fern:)" etc. to tag who’s speaking.

Avatar ID: a little family of cute knitted opossums. Header ID: a photo we took of pink flowers.

Open to respectful questions onour gender, plurality, disabilities, and knitting!

The full cost of the visit, euthanizing Angel, and getting her ashes back was $491.75. I was able to pay $134.33 of it with our savings (from stuff like selling knitted animals). That leaves $357.42 that our partner paid. I would like to raise as much as possible toward the goal of $357.42, so we can help pay off the credit card cost for our partner.

So you know you have the right one: the name is Rainbow Phoenix Olmstead, and the icon is two knitted opossums. I can also look into other payment methods!

$60/357.42

(Cobalt:) She's gone.

We'll update again in a minute with costs to pay back our partner for the euthanization.

(Cobalt:) Thirty dollars out of 300! Thank you!!

(Cobalt:) So, Angel (our cat) hasn't been eating much for days, and then just now she drooled a huge amount on our blanket. The vet on call said it's urgent to get her looked at.

Any amount we can raise would be really helpful. Our partner agreed to cover the remainder, but they're not *rich*.

I'd like to aim for $300 (and I'll crosspost this in various places). Any amount we don't use and can't return, we'll use for daily living costs like Angel's food. Our PayPal is @/rainbowolmstead1, and so you know you have the right one: the name is Rainbow Phoenix Olmstead, and the icon is two knitted opossums. I can also look into other payment methods!

Info about us: We are a severely disabled and trans plural system. We can't work, but we're not on disability payments yet. Our daily living costs are primarily covered by our partner, government assistance, and occasional sales of knitted items.

(Cobalt:) Angel is having another medical issue 😭 She's refusing to eat now. Unless something changes, we're taking her to the vet tomorrow.

We added a pocket to a skirt! The black material is from a pair of underwear that ripped too badly to mend. This was a practice run - next time, we'll add a pocket to a skirt we actually use.

Hi! I'm Cobalt, a member of a plural system. We share this account. Our personal/amigurumi account is @rainbow_phoenix.

We really like #PokemonGo and #PikminBloom! We're disabled (ME/CFS, and other stuff) but we can sometimes make it to nearby PoGo gyms with the help of our rollator (rolling walker). We're also lucky to have a PokeStop we can reach from bed!

If you'd like to be friends with us in-game, please message us or reply with your friend code--we'd love to have more friends from here!

Almost ready to start laying out the patchwork! Just need to block the last batch of lozenges (rhombuses? rhombi?). #harlequin #blanket #crochet #WIP

In case you forgot (like I did) the Oregon special election is today.
