Feedback on c/mutual_aid rule changes.

From the perspective of someone who sometimes has some cash to redistribute on here, I just want to provide some feedback on [the semi-recent rule changes](https://hexbear.net/post/2803644?scrollToComments=false) in this comm. I don't think all of them are working and I think this comm needs just a little bit more attention to rectify the situation! First, and I hope least controversial: the sidebar desperately needs to be updated to reflect the actual updated rules. Second, similarly uncontroversial, the rules should generally actually be enforced. Not enforcing them consistently is worse than not having them in some cases. This ties into several other issues. Third thing, clarity is needed on whether or not payment details are allowed in the form of not (immediately) personally identifiable usernames. The rule rn says PII/opsec leaks aren't allowed and that payment *links* aren't, but usernames seems more gray. I thought that usernames weren't allowed at all until I re-read the post, and judging by the variety of different approaches to providing payment details in recent posts, I'm not the only one unsure. Fourth thing, I think that strongly encouraging people to update their posts when they receive aid is a good thing for helping spread the community's limited aid resources around more where they are needed most. That's good guidance and I wish everyone did it! Fifth, **and to me personally, one of the most important**, I am less likely to send money, if I have to effectively dox myself to the poster to do it, and when I have to ask for payment details over DM, that's basically what I'm doing (its trivial to correspond who I am by timing and payment method, even if multiple people do send them money, doubly so over multiple different posts over time). It's one thing for them to know my name or my venmo or whatever, but when they can tie that name to a *specific* hexbear account I start to go from "keeping the risk in mind" to "I don't think that's a risk I'm willing to take". So while I can understand the urge to not have posters dox themselves, the reverse is also true. Sixth, as a result of having to DM for payment details (both because of the doxing risk and just the extra steps for both parties), mutual aid posters are currently incentivized to violate or skirt around grey areas of the rules if they want to get more aid. Combined with the lax enforcement/unclear rule, this creates a really sucky situation where people in need are punished monetarily for trying to follow the rules. Seventh, related to #2/maybe #1 and others, I am of the opinion the comm probably needs another mod or two, it's pretty active and can be a fraught topic when there are disputes, and currently there only seems to be one active mod? A further revision of the rules to explicitly allow non-doxxing payment methods to be published, followed by an update to the sidebar, would be greatly appreciated tbh. Or something like that. I appreciate all the work done to keep this site safe and functional and such, but these little issues have been nagging at the back of my mind for months now and needed to get out. Thoughts?

[$20/200] Please Help with Rent

update from yesterday's post - I got my paycheck and now know exactly how much I need to safely make rent, I'm just $180 away. Then I can settle my anxiety, work this new job, and finally unclench my jaw. Any help would mean a lot. Even if you can't help, thank you for your solidarity and love ![heart-sickle](https://www.hexbear.net/pictrs/image/14c2707b-51cb-44ed-be2f-f262d088e219.png "emoji heart-sickle") CashApp: $justanotherbug

![screm-a](https://hexbear.net/pictrs/image/120ccc38-035f-4901-8b34-fa93f333a6d6.png "emoji screm-a") Hey. My friend who recently moved to be able to transition has gotten her car stolen and lost the work she had gotten upon getting here. I'm a bit embarrassed not to be able to help her out much financially. If you could contribute, it would be really amazing. She's someone who's done a lot of work to build up community and help others out in the ways available to her. It's also very difficult for her to ask for help directly. She wouldn't be doing so unless it was urgent and necessary. I hope that you can help her weather this crisis and protect the new life she's building for herself. https://gofund.me/3d2ac532 ![screm2](https://www.hexbear.net/pictrs/image/be5f2397-c8ad-4848-b9f6-69656bfa43b4.png "emoji screm2")

would anyone help me get some toiletries?

As mentioned on here previously, I'm going through a disability benefit appeal and have no money at all. So I have no way of getting any little thing I need. I'm very thankful to have been helped on here to get some food previously. I've run out of toiletries, I need toothpaste, dental floss, shampoo, soap, sanitary pads, laundry detergent, toilet paper and painkillers. However now the DWP (the nazis who run the UK benefit system) are checking people's bank accounts, I don't think I can dare to accept money any more in case I can't explain to them why people are paying me money. If anyone would be willing to order the things I need off boots.com or amazon and have them sent to me I would be really grateful.

Life Keeps Kicking Me (Rent and medical)

I'll try to keep it short because I'm sure people are tired of hearing about it. The week that I was out with my broken wrist, I thought would be paid. I've never had a job with PTO or sick time before. I'd used my allotted PTO for the year. So I put in my requests as serious medical (injury), assuming they'd pay me and then if I was found to be fraudulent they'd claw that back. Oh boy, am I naive. Definitely feeling stupid for a grown ass man. So needless to say I didn't get a paycheck as I was supposed to. My apartment complex agreed yesterday to let me pay rent late on the 9th, and I'd just be responsible for the late fees within two weeks of the 9th. I could have pulled that off with about ~30 left between the next two weeks, but I'd still have a place to stay. So now I'm here. I don't know what else to do. I'm going to go get the paperwork for FMLA (medical leave) signed by the doctor today, but this process can take weeks and I'm not even 100% sure it will work, as someone made a comment about it not kicking in for two weeks. I took that to mean FMLA won't kick in unless it was bad enough for me to be out of work for two weeks. Guess I should have milked that doctor's note huh? So, I hate landlords, I hate capitalism. I have a couple groceries thanks to the fine folks here the other day, but now I need ~460 (this check will be complete and I can cover the other 300) by the 9th, plus the normal bills and such I was hoping to cover this week, along with groceries and etc, totaling 100. I'll accept any advice in this situation as well, but I think I'm on top of it now. I just didn't realize I was supposed to be filling out paperwork while I was sitting in the ER and had no idea what was happening... So actual long story short: Got hurt, work/capitalism fucked me, and I'm short on short-term bills to the tune of $100 and need an additional ~460 by the 9th. I don't expect the comm to make up all this difference, but I don't have friends with any available resources at the moment. I'm resourceful and will keep trying, but I'm in a tough spot. With my wrist broken there's not much side work I can do. Thank you all so much. I'm trying really hard not to freak out about this. I really don't want to be homeless and start over again. PayPal is sgriffith0891 at gee mail dot com CashApp is $sgriffith0891 P.S. In other news, I'm pretty sure I'm easing some of my coworkers more and more left, so that's fun!

Please Help with Rent

I'm so sorry for making this post, I really wish I didn't have to ask for help, but it's exceptionally urgent. I've exhausted all of my other options and I don't know where else to go. I've been doing hard labor nearly every day the past month, backbreaking cargo deliveries, and it's still not enough. I'm starting a new job next week with much better pay and hours, but in the interim I'm worried I won't be able to make rent and pay my bills. I'm so exhausted and at my wit's end and I don't want to let my roommates down - they're very kind people. I feel like I'm on fire with anxiety, just totally on edge. Fiscal instability really fucks with your ability to think. I get my last paycheck tomorrow, but I have a very sure gut feeling that it won't be enough for rent. The worst part is that the way my last job cuts my checks and doles out hours and tips, I have no idea how much the check will be until the day they pay me, so I'm not even sure how short I'm going to be on my rent and bill payments. I figure I'd be secure with an extra $600, but I'm also not sure how appropriate or realistic that is to ask for from relative strangers on the internet. Anything anyone can contribute or share at all would mean a lot. I've cut down everything I can. I already live extremely modestly, practically an ascetic. I go to a food bank every Saturday and check local food pantries regularly, I've sold everything I have of any value, I only have two pairs of shoes and those are slowly disintegrating. I feel like the world is telling me I don't deserve anything more - hell, by capital's logic, I probably don't *deserve* a safe home. I feel powerless, it's scary nerve-wracking stuff. If there's anything I can do in return to show my gratitude, if you need help writing or proofreading or video editing or transcription or IT help or graphic design work or advice or anything, anything at all, please let me know. Even if nobody is able to contribute, thank you so much to hexbear and everyone on this site, for your solidarity, for inspiring hope in my soul, and for making the world a much less scary place. I really feel the healing love of comradeship here, and I deeply appreciate all of you. CashApp: $justanotherbug

[$80/650] Help with upcoming rent Oct. 11 and basics+phone bill

Hello again everyone, hate having to make these posts and I really wish there was something else i could do :( For a quick recap ~ my wife and I are homeless and disabled, and lost pretty much all of our family over the past year and have no friends around so zero support system. We currently have been able to manage staying in a sleezy motel, and thanks to you guys have been able to stay off the streets thus far. I was advised that I should perhaps start fundraising for next months rent a bit earlier so it isn’t a last minute desperate nail biting affair as to whether we’ll be on the street or not - for reference, again, it costs $55/day, $250/week, or $650/month if paid in advance. Any help is greatly appreciated and I can’t say enough how much it means to us. We’re in a really hard spot just in general as we lost half our food stamps and due to the stoppage of the Affordable Connectivity Program we’ve had to start paying for phone service as well which is extremely vital, and we do not have a vehicle and stay in an area lacking good public transport so we have to basically rideshare to anywhere we’ve got to go unless it is extremely close as I’m completely unable to walk most days and only can manage a short distance when I can due to an injury. This is just to say again, absolutely anything is greatly appreciated. Have more or less given up on the laptop battery for now, but phone bills are due extremely soon which is absolutely vital! For both it’s about ~$90 For the bajillionth time because I can’t express this enough, thank you so much everyone. We should hopefully be out of this situation come November sometime. Fingers crossed 🥹❤️🚩 ~ Just as an update, we’ve actually received around $190 total. Unless received somewhat in bulk/at once/close together it’s very hard to save as there’s a lot of other things we need help with but we’re doing our utmost to save what we can towards the upcoming room fee. Cashapp- $goldenratio1123 PayPal ~ @ iwannadaisuki Can DM if having any trouble finding me on these platforms and for Venmo or Zelle.

Advice needed on very short term housing, any city, and where/how to find supportive individuals and make new friends

Greetings all! I've known I was trans (mtf) for around 30 years now. Since transgender issues became very much out in the open, I was forced to confront something I always considered a shameful secret, and not something I would ever have to deal with in reality. However, trying to deny how I've felt, or trying to postpone dealing with it has not worked out well for me, not at all. I ended up losing a lot of what I had worked for, my own apartment and a dream job, then with the pandemic, things just fell apart and I kept wanting to put it back together. Losing everything I worked for really, really took a toll on me, I really went through hell, a lot of abuse and hardship to come as far as I did, and to lose it all was crushing. I've been trying to hard to restore my life back to what it was for many years now, and had thought of maybe trying to transition after I had managed to do so, but trying to do that while fighting and denying being trans finally became too much. Abut a week ago now, maybe a little over, I realized...I need to at least *try* it, as a priority for my mental health. I need to commit to trying hormones, to getting comfortable enough going outside in female clothing as my female self. After accepting myself, even just to commit to trying, made me feel like the biggest weight I had been carrying for the last 20 years or so was just...gone. I felt free all of a sudden. Life seems so promising again...everything I wanted to do, I can still do, and have more motivation to do so now. My problem though, and the reason for this post, is I want to find somewhere I can travel to urgently, and find some women who can help me getting started, at least with some simple things like makeup, helping to cover up facial hair after shaving, some basic clothing. Ideally somewhere I can learn to drive as well, just to have some independence finally. Somewhere I can start becoming my true self. I'm based around NYC but I do not feel comfortable with the shelter situation here, and would be scared to encounter people i already know here. I have about $500 cash, no income or work at the moment, and a ton of air-miles so I can at least fly pretty much anywhere - but is there anywhere I can fly where there is some sort of shelter I could just drop in to? Artists collectives? Hippie communes? Motorcycle clubs? I don't want to stay where I am as I frankly don't feel safe. It's a small room in a house with a lot of large men who like to drink, constantly gambling and yelling about sports. I absolutely do not feel safe here to start practicing my female voice, and to start trying to present female, even shaving my limbs feels like a bad idea here. I would be very grateful for any options for someone I could move to on very short notice to get support with transitioning, make new friends (I literally have no friends or family in this country at present, and it's been making things so much harder) I'm willing to do any kind of work, even sex work is something I would be open to as long as it wasn't digital...I just need to go somewhere else basically before Friday. At this point I'm thinking of just going to one of the trans sanctuary cities and hoping I would be accepted if I turn up at a female shelter, but I've had bad luck with shelters in the past so I am hoping for some other ideas. I can't start hormones straight away as I would like to find a way to maintain my fertility and have children (and after accepting that I want to be a mom, this has become very important to me), but I want to start using shapewear, save up to get laser hair removal for face and adams apple removal and ffs, but basically just go somewhere i can be accepted and get more confident going out as a woman. This feels like a burning desire, something I have to do no matter the cost. I can move and relocate anywhere as long as it's a city that would be accepting of trans folx and where I could find shelter and start my transition. If people have ideas or suggestions, please do share them, and thank you so much in advance!

Really could use some help right now

I didn't want to make a post asking for this last week because it seemed like there were a lot of comrades who needed help more than me for rent and stuff but I really could use a bit of assistance I lost my job and haven't been able to get the back pay I'm owed and also I don't think I can even qualify for unemployment due to having been an "independent contractor" and not an employee I don't need rent money because I live with my parents but things are really tight right now and I may not be able to buy groceries without a bit of cash Also I have an unexpected expense this week because I got a date for the first time in almost a year and I already asked her out to a movie without realizing I would have to spend the last of my money on something else this last weekend so I would really prefer not to feel embarrassed about being poor by telling her we have to change plans DM me for my info or just post a comment here making fun of me for being a loser and I will thank you for bumping my post Even just $50 would be enough to get by, $100 would have me feeling a lot more comfortable and any more will have me feeling like I got too much but in all honesty I may spend the extra on drugs for me and treats for my dog

Lost my $10 "paycheck" because I was higher than balls, would like to purchase some groceries

So for about a month now I’ve been getting paid to watch a friend’s van while he’s crashing at this kind-of-a-squat down the street. I’m not making this up. He pays me $20 every couple days (we’re both homeless, and I also get paid in other cool things + I get to crash in a tent next to the van, so it’s whatever). Today he paid me $10, with the promise that more would come later. And so of course, I lost the $10. I was planning on buying a few groceries—the squat might be getting evicted today so I’m raiding the kitchen, yoinked some instant coffee, need to buy some sort of creamer because I can only drink coffee with a fuck ton of cream and sugar. I also owe a very sweet, amazing friend $10-20 for an insanely awesome speaker he found dumpster diving. We agreed on $10 but I think it’s worth more like $20. He’s an awesome person and deserves it. Oh yeah and I need more butane for the awesome stove you guys helped me buy. CashApp/Venmo: allthetimesivedied

I got fucked over by my last employer several months ago and have been since stuck in no job or income or savings land. Surviving out there is brutal.

Help getting a trans friend's electricity back on

So I have a trans friend who wants to stay complete anonymous, who just recently had their power shut off. I do not actually know this person full frontal, my AA sponsor just mentioned this to me. If my sponsor trusts someone, I trust them. Take this as you will. Also if you're adjusted to sending money to my accounts, we're sending all the money to my sponsor for anonymity of the recipient. If you want to send it my way over PayPal instead of DMing, I'll make sure it gets to them. The recipient has stated that they had their power cut off after being 50 pence short of their power bill. Because of that, there's a minimum 25 pound + "fees" cost to getting the power back on. They're really scared right now, and I told my sponsor I'd check here. Like I said, even if you've previously sent to me, DM me for the payment info so I can make sure they get them money. They only have PayPal, so that's easy enough to just send to me, but Cashapp and Venmo are a different beast entirely.

Hi friends, I am here on behalf of my sister, who is stuck in Asheville at the moment. Power, cell service, food, and water are scarce and difficult to reach in the flooded streets and my sister is getting sick. I have been able to find some info on places distributing food and water, and have sent along what I can to her, but I was hoping some of my comrades here could help gather information on where distribution is happening and what routes to get around are workable. So far the best resource I have found is Citizen Times. https://www.citizen-times.com/story/news/local/2024/09/30/world-central-kitchen-hearts-with-hands-distributes-food-water-more/75448814007/ https://www.citizen-times.com/story/news/local/2024/09/29/asheville-guide-to-finding-food-water-shelter-and-wi-fi-after-helene/75444723007/ So please Hexbears and anyone else who sees this, could you add whatever you can be sure of to the community map and share helpful info for folks here? Thank you comrades!

Hey folks got an urgent mutual aid ask.

Cant go into too much detail but the family I know out at pine ridge just had their car vandalized and basically totaled by some dumb kids out on the rez and just $600 can get them a new car and anything more would be immensely appreciated. I am begging you to help my friends. $nes2025

[$890 / $900] We're pretty much there, BUT...

I need about $10 to transfer in because of those instant transfer fees on apps like Cash App, Venmo, and PayPal. Once I get that, the goal has been reached! THANKS TO EACH AND EVERY SINGLE ONE OF YOU 🥺👉👈

Need help with basics and overdraft fees. - Request filled.

Thank you so much! I don't know what I would have done without you. I made a post last week asking for help with food, and I'm so grateful that a couple of people responded and I was able to buy food and other basics I need like sanitary towels, soap and toothpaste. However on Tuesday I'm going to be debited £55 in overdraft fees/interest. (I'm living in an overdraft while I wait for my disability claim to get sorted out. I've spoken about why I'm in this mess on here before if anyone's interested.) I just don't have enough left to cover the overdraft fees and when they're taken I'll have nothing left again for food. I feel awful asking for help on here again but I have no-one else to turn to. If anyone is able to help I would be so thankful and relieved.

[Need Met] Back Again

[Thank you!] So basically here's the story: Last week I broke my wrist and now I'm in a cast for ~8 weeks. I've been on shaky financial footing for a while, but that set me back even more. Had to spend money on Ubers and extra food, copays, etc. I'm okay and back to work on light duty. I'm going to talk to my apartment complex today to see if I can pay late this month without the late fees, because that's about the only way I can afford it. I'll be behind for next, but I have more time to adjust for that. There's two paychecks between now and the 9th that will total just shy of 800, which is just enough to pay rent plus a few essentials. Then there's three more checks after that in October, so hopefully I can actually get caught up this time. This treadmill is really starting to beat me down. On top of that, I've got little to no food currently. I got a little help here the other day, but unfortunately I'm a hungry boy and even just buying chicken legs and rice and a couple veggies doesn't go very far. So this one is a bit open-ended, I suppose. I am most likely *going* to need more help coming up, as I can't even do lawn work on the side. But for the moment, I need some food and a thing of toilet paper. I ate the last of my chicken and rice last night, and my stomach is starting to grumble. I should have posted then but thought I might have something else in the works. That didn't pan out. Thank all of you so much for the help you give - not just to me but to everyone here. I am amazed at the things this community has been able to accomplish, just watching the requests being fulfilled. You all are fucking amazing. For anyone interested, it's a minimally displaced scaphoid fracture. I just took a little tumble off my bike. Nothing dramatic or exciting; honestly it was kind of embarrassing.

I need a favour from someone with a Reddit account, to ask something about an abusive parent on Reddit. (Or come and answer it - it's a medical question about gas poisoning)

EDIT: solved. Upon further investigation, she doesn't even have a gas hob. She has an electric one. It was a fabrication. Nasty woman. Hello all. A little while ago I got banned from Reddit because of some VERY mild Israel criticism. Truly, I am in awe that I got a sitewide ban for telling people not to conflate anti Zionism with anti semitism. Every new account I make gets nuked in a matter of hours. Anyway. My mother is totally mental. She threatens suicide a lot. Attempts it even. But I often doubt what's really happening. My sister cut her off over it. So last night she says she's really doing it, and she's going to put the gas on in her campervan (shes on holiday in France) and take some sleeping pills and that'll be her life over. She said the dogs will die too. She knows I care for them deeply, and has tried to leverage similar things before. But I figure they've had an excellent and long life each, and carbon monoxide/propane is a pretty good way to go. Sad, of course, but I am so detached at this point that I just have to accept it for what it is. Anyway, this morning, to no surprise at all, she wakes up alive. As always. And she says the dogs are ill. One woke up but didn't move, the other wouldn't come round til she bathed him in some water. So she says she had to go to the vet. She tells me they gave the dogs an IV drip and some charcoal. Already suspecting bullshit, that caught my attention. Why would you give charcoal to a gas-poisoned dog? Charcoal is for ingested poisons, is it not? Gas poisoning is blood and oxygen related. Any vet worth their salt would not administer charcoal in that situation, right? Or am I wrong? So that's the crux of the question. I think she's lying. I mean, how hard is it to gas yourself in a campervan? She's 50 something and frail. And two little older shihtzus? They're gonna easily get gassed out. She never took those dogs to the vet because nothing ever happened. And would that cost 700 GBP (in euros)? That's what she's saying it cost. Anyway, save me your messages of condolence and such. I know it's a hard situation. Everyone always tells me so. I've come to terms with all that a long time ago. I just want the truth. If you don't know the answer, a post on r/veteranarians or whatever the vet sub is would be fantastic help. Many pleases. Many thanks.

[$25/650] Help with upcoming rent by Oct. 11th

Hello again everyone, hate having to make these posts and I really wish there was something else i could do :( For a quick recap ~ my wife and I are homeless and disabled, and lost pretty much all of our family over the past year and have no friends around so zero support system. We currently have been able to manage staying in a sleezy motel, and thanks to you guys have been able to stay off the streets thus far. I was advised that I should perhaps start fundraising for next months rent a bit earlier so it isn’t a last minute desperate nail biting affair as to whether we’ll be on the street or not - for reference, again, it costs $55/day, $250/week, or $650/month if paid in advance. Any help is greatly appreciated and I can’t say enough how much it means to us. We’re in a really hard spot just in general as we lost half our food stamps and due to the stoppage of the Affordable Connectivity Program we’ve had to start paying for phone service as well which is extremely vital, and we do not have a vehicle and stay in an area lacking good public transport so we have to basically rideshare to anywhere we’ve got to go unless it is extremely close as I’m completely unable to walk most days and only can manage a short distance when I can due to an injury. This is just to say again, absolutely anything is greatly appreciated. One more thing is that, I have a refurbished laptop I got a long time ago off eBay, but the it hasn’t been able to be turned on in a few months - I’m assuming it’s the battery as I could tell it was failing beforehand. The particular battery is anywhere from $25-$99 to replace but obviously we’d be going for the absolute cheapest one we can manage - hoping to maybe scrape about $50 together for this as that should be enough. For the bajillionth time because I can’t express this enough, thank you so much everyone. We should hopefully be out of this situation come November sometime. Fingers crossed 🥹❤️🚩 ~ Just as an update, we’ve actually received around $100 total. Unless received somewhat in bulk/at once/close together it’s very hard to save as there’s a lot of other things we need help with but we’re doing our utmost to save what we can towards the upcoming room fee. Cashapp- $goldenratio1123 PayPal ~ @ iwannadaisuki Can DM if having any trouble finding me on these platforms and for Venmo or Zelle.

Money for transportation & other basic needs after some bullshit overdrafts

I am so pissed right now. I've been working full time, I got paid today, but through a series of total bullshit overdraft fees (explained in the spoiler because I need to rant details about this but like clean looking posts) I lost pretty much the entire thing in a day to a single fucking pizza. Feel free to message for any payment info ::: spoiler Explanation Yeah, so I'm pretty broke as of recent, and not making decisions I should because of the stress of that. I spent a little bit of time being drunk and off my meds earlier this week before this today's check, and that certainly did a dent on last check, but didn't overdraft and I sobered up. My friend sent me $20 for dinner last night, so I ordered some pizza, that was about $23 dollars, perfectly calculated to be okay until I got paid in like 8-12 hours. But this was not okay for the pizza chain. Not only did I never get the pizza, I got QUADRUPLE CHARGED for that shit. I didn't even get the pizza. I got the refund for the initial charge today, but still have the other three pending charges on my account that have knocked out. Apparently they'll be refunded soon, but wtf? The quadruple charge created a series of overdrafts that were complete bullshit. 3 overdrafts for $50 each on top of the triple charge, putting me into the negative right before my check came in. That wouldn't have been an issue (I guess) but I woke up this morning not knowing about that the bank and Dominos stole my entire fucking paycheck over one Pizza. I have to get a ride to work. I scheduled a public transit ride for $3 (another $50 overdraft). The fucking public transit isn't working. Schedule my Uber to work so I don't go even more broke. The bank charges $50. I leave for work and call about the overdrafts, they agree to remove a single one, which leaves me at $1.82 before my paycheck. But I have to get home even though my "public transit" driver hasn't left home for 2 hours. Literally piss myself waiting for them because I can't tell when I have to pee, and they never came. Can't just schedule another one and just wait, literally won't let me. Another Uber for $20. Another $50 for overdraft. I feel so absolutely fucked right now by these shit ass overdraft fees I wouldn't even have if it weren't for Domino's right now. I literally can't eat right now because of a Domino's pizza that I never got. Literally never ordering from there again, holy shit today has been horrible. :::

When's my time to surpass this

Ok so here we go.... Recently I've been tagged, towed, harassed, hit by a Russian lady, overcame an opiate auction left by my narcissist partner of three years after she cheated on me so humiliated also, add that to the list, then got picked up on a lame old probation charge for a week yet again listing everything tho only pick up what ive managed to be lucky enough to have a death grip on..... Basically I've got friends.... See others.... Who well seem like they get the world offered them squander away everything.... Like cases of thousand of dollars transferred and then the people having nothing to show for trying to better ones situation....I don't understand that , if ever given the chance to actually get on my feet like that or to actually improve my quality of life I'd not only take that initiative I promise is excell in my current situation every time. Yes I'm appreciative of this community and every thing it's done for me... But I've put my hours in the street traveling hitching and train hoping across the Great States busking to being a hobo to a bum, so I've gotten my badges my scars for this country in ways most people will never get the opportunity but is know life has been rough this last bit like it's kinda imploding around me... Everyone I know has at least one miracle story, where's mine, I promise I'll make it a good one but honestly everything going against me almost had me defeated so I'm asking someone make the change in my life that will actually make a difference cash app $paresomelove and anything as soon as possible e would be great I've got till tomorrow morning to move my van before I get towed again
