  • So this was part of a much bigger discussion and turned out in reality to be mostly due to some unaddressed mental health issues. But on the tail end of an argument, y'know when you're starting to talk nice again and resolve things, I said something like it's okay, sometimes you're just a sad pancake. She burst into tears because she wanted to be a waffle. Hormones and mental health are wild, y'all.

  • Speaking entirely from personal experience, this is accurate. I don't know what percentage of people in the US are Catholic, but at least where I'm at (the south) most are Protestant. I went from being raised as a church kid (Protestant, Pentecostal to be specific), to hanging out with pagans after I left the church, and with a bunch of other groups. Everyone makes fun of Catholics.

    Food

    I bought my money order for rent again, so that's set aside, but now I need more food. I know I'm back here every week and I'm trying to get out of this cycle. Because of your help and the help of some in-person friends, I've finally been eating properly this last week or so. I'm getting lots of protein and I don't feel so weak and tired all the time, even though I worked eight days straight while not sleeping well. So the help I have been getting has been a life saver, without question.

    I'll be on my feet soon, I think. I'm trying, comrades.

    Anything helps, thank you all!

    I Could Use Some Help Agin

    I just need groceries. I bought the money order for rent, and now I'm broke. $40 for food will probably do it. I have some pork chops still, about two day's worth.

    Need More Help

    Thank you!

    I put aside a quarter of my rent this week, as I'm determined to pay it myself.

    But I need toilet paper and more money for food. I went shopping and got what I could, pork chops mostly, but it wasn't enough and will be gone soon.

    I talked with my boss today that I can't keep killing myself like this. I can't afford to eat enough food to make up for my energy expenditure. My job is literally killing me, mentally and physically. I can't stop shedding weight, and that's while I'm putting on muscle, so I'm actually losing more in a way. I'm down to 139. I'm 5 10 and broad shouldered. That's way too light.

    I've got job applications out and I've got in touch with some contacts that are going to look for me. I'm working to not even survive. I'm so tired. Like my soul is weary at this point.

    I need to schedule therapy really badly but can't afford it. I need new work pants because I've lost so much weight mine are probably 5 inches too big in the waist. I don't even know

    A Bite To Eat

    Need is met. Thank you! Go help someone else, please!

    I get paid tomorrow night, so I don't need much. But I work tomorrow and will definitely need fuel to throw truck and bust my ass like I do. I've got two small potatoes and maybe a cup of rice right now.

    I applied for a second job today, with my apartment complex. That would discount my rent and pay me. Hopefully it comes through. I don't know anything about being a maintenance tech, but I can learn just about anything.

    I'm doing my best, friends.

    Phone Bill

    My phone bill is 45 and I've got 15 (25 now!) available for it. While not incredibly critical, I do use my phone to catch the bus, tracking it as well as my bus pass. I also ride my bicycle in the morning at 3am before the buses run, and not having a way to contact my work or a friend if something goes wrong makes me nervous.

    Sorry to be back again so soon. Please take care of people needing food and such first. Thank you all so much.

    Rent

    Edit: Holy shit, thank you! I'd like to leave open my DMs for insight or advice, but the financial need is met. Please don't post to the thread as not to bump it, to allow others to be seen.

    Due to an apparently emerging mental health issue which has caused me to have what appear to be brand-new manic depressive episodes, of which I've had two in the past month, I've made some poor decisions and my rent is late. I have 275 of the currently 773. I get paid another 340 tomorrow, but I'll need groceries at a minimum. So ~300 toward rent. If I pay on the last possible day, 8/8, it would be 803.

    Not to give the sob story, but I feel details are deserved.

    I have a son with a now ex that was born when I was 19. I'm 33 and making 15 an hour. I'm full time with benefits. So 70 a week plus a total of 90 a week for our mandatory insurance. So my take-home is 340 a week. Rent plus utilities is running about 709 a month. There's not much wiggle room there.

    I just took a week off with PTO be

    25 For An Uber To Work

    Honestly my financial situation has gone even more sideways and I might need more help soon, but here's the immediate need.

    I've been out of work for mental health reasons for almost a week. I need to get to work tomorrow, I ride a bicycle, and I live right in the middle of Florida. Fortunately that means I'm actually probably insulated from real danger, but not on a bicycle. I'm scheduled at 4am but I was told to be safe and they'd rather me be late.

    So that's the rub. 4 mile Uber ride at 4am. I think 25 is enough.

  • That's fair. I'm entirely uninformed on the sparrows but I do understand nature is an endlessly complex system which we do not and probably can not ever truly understand. Not trying to be absolutist.

    But I do wish death on every blood sucking mosquito.
