In jail they had a flat screen TV in the common area with like 1,000 channels but we were only allowed out of our cells for 1 hour a day (hexbear.net)

Idk if this was a peculiarity of being in segregation due to being trans or not, but I doubt it because we had a whole unit of our own, where I was allowed to interact with other trans inmates during that allotted 1 hour.

We also got extremely hit or miss meals, where the “hit” was something like an occasional overcooked mystery meat casserole or baked beans + 4 little meatballs, and “miss” was potato salad and two slices of whole wheat bread.

My friends tried many many times to put money on my books but I just didn’t show up when you typed my SWIS ID into the app. Oh and if they had come anywhere near the rack bail the court set for me, YOU NEED AN ID TO BAIL SOMEONE OUT HA HA HA.

Supposedly one of the most progressive counties in AmeriKKKa.

Oh yeah and it’s against federal law to use Medicaid funds on incarcerated “people.” So I had to re enroll when I got out.

The bail system is so fucked. It's like they are fine consistently releasing homeless folks on recognizance, but they still make you wait multiple weeks before making that designation, just in case they can get paid in that time? Some real bullshit.

Fucking barbaric, I'm glad you're out. Do you still have the car?

Ashlee was collecting some bail money for you so I guess that never got used. Do you have enough money to get the car registered now?

What'd y'all end up watching usually?

I would always request the news. Asked for CNN once but the CO had no idea what channel that was. Consensus with the other inmates would often change it to cartoons or fucking shite movies.
