That Ryan Guy, no, the other one.

Worst part about the background check for instacart? I'm not on any watchlists. I need to up my subversive game...

Seeing how many people try and push Old Testament rules on people, ignoring completely the Entire Reason for The New Testament.

"Yes, we know Jesus sacrificed for us, but we REALLY want to push THIS onto people we hate "

Grumble grumble old man fist shake at Apple logo anyway.

Augh! Someone sent me a nice donation, and I cannot find the details and I want to thank them, but I also don't want to risk calling them out as generous or dead name them or...

Hey, if you've donated, thank you! it has helped get through this bucket of shitty days.

I can tell without asking, you're using safari on your iphone. That's the "We will decide for you" behavior.

Fetterman hasn't been voting like a Democrat since the Stroke.

On the up side, I finally got approval for instacart shopper...

on the down side, that was a burst of seratonin that made me feel happy for a lot longer than I expected.

Odd... Thank you for everything. I'll dig into it

Still $100 short, waiting on my Venmo card to update the amount so I can at least walk in with most of it and negotiate

Please universe, give me one day of the week that I don't get kicked.

The worst part, they never sent me the bill for the month. NOR a "hey, pay it or else" email

Thanks to the kindness of people, have just 180 to go, trying to discuss with them next if I can get a partial to turn it on, but please help if you can

Normally I get the bill in e-mail. Nothing. Normally I get a reminder.. i'm so fucking tired.

I am at my wits end, I need to raise $300 asap. without warning, the water has been shut off.

normally they email the bill a week before, nothing. Please, for my sanity, can anyone help?

Its monday, and I'm in desperate need for $ for gas, "SNAP" doesn't let me put gas in the car, and this is a shit week. Please help if you can. A lot of people helped get through the weekend. And I'm grateful.

They are working on expanding. Normally Republicans only fuck kids.

Also? I don't know many parents of Non-Straight kids that didn't know BEFORE the kid did.

This screenshot is from a thread that was basically "So what did Kamala/Hillary predict..."

Someone didn't even take the time to type, these are the output format of Gemini, when you use Google's AI Mode.

fuck AI.

Posting again, because while I did get help the last time, I am still desperately looking for help anywhere I can. Unemployment came short and Rent and Bills and Oh god it never ends...

Yeah, I was once let go and they wanted me to teach the guy they hired to replace me everything before I left.

I did not. Nobody traine me to be the IT guy. If he was qualified for the job, he'd be able to work it out on his own like I had to.

If not? Oh well.

And the Constitution says only Congress can declare war.

Shame to see congress isn't alive to see what this President is doing.

I need cover art, that's what's slowing me down, but every time I mention something online, I get a dozen people who hit me with various search terms going "You can commission me!!!" when I've said explicitly, no, no I can't."

For the YA one, I might just take a photo I took and use it...

I've got two "not my typical genre" books I'm working on. I mean, I have the "Furry Fiction" one that is "Into the Nevertime" and I've got two others. a Sci-Fi story that is about 75% complete, and a YA "Cozy" fiction that I kinda whipped out in a week and totally forgot about for a year.

I'm trying to keep moving forward. But every time I make something with a crumb of seratonin attached the universe goes "No, back in your box."

This right here. "Too scared to make long term plans."

I'm also unemployed, I've applied for remote work I'm absolutely qualified for, and heard "we are not hiring from [USA] right now." The role was asking FOR my timezone.

My LONGEST term plan right now is Wednesday. The rest? no...

I do not think we're putting up our "A" squad in the world.

Its like, back in Gulf War 1 in the 80s they were BRAGGING about being able to basically knock on someone's door and hand them a missile... and now we're back to anti-precision.

Israel is so used to the "There were hamas there." excuse working that they forget that people are paying attention.

a week ago it was $4/gal. Three days ago $4.50. Last night, $5/gal

Y'know, the war in Iran does not change the supply of oil THAT much, THAT fast.

It is comforting to get fucked by oil companies just like old times. "Something happened, quick! Increase prices a dollar a gallon!"

I want to thank everyone who have helped us today. I was able to pick up cat food and most of a tank of gas. Please manifest in your own way a Really Good Day for me?

I'm sitting here trying to work out the best way, with what resources I have on hand, to cause an incident that requires future citizens to wonder what the fuck happened here that made them redraw the map.
