it's you, it's me, it's us.

i’ve been managing as best as i can but it hasn’t been easy due to the fact that i’ve missed quite a few days in may due to accident as well. i don’t have any benefits at work so there has been no paid or sick leave to make up for my lack of hours and i’ve already blown through most of my savings. i currently have less than 50$ in my bank account with a multiple bills due. a 220$ electricity bill, 100$ renter’s insurance fee that my landlord forces us to have, 50$ cellphone bill ( i work as a home health aide and need my phone to clock in and out ),and july’s rent is right around the corner just to name a few. plus the rental i’ve gotten since the accident  is a gas guzzler which means i’m constantly burning through money stopping for gas which is still pretty high in my neck of the woods due to the pipeline shut down a couple weeks ago.

in conclusion: i’m struggling college student supporting a household of five on her own until my sister and cousin can get back to work. if there is any chance that any of you have the means to spare a few bucks my way i’d really appreciate it. my cashapp handle is $ayeasha96 and my paypal is paypal.me/ayeasha96 . whatever you can give would help tremendously.

I’ll have a Piña Colada, not virgin. Wanna see my ID? Totally have it!

im not talking about like, bigoted, im talking about media thats just pulpy shlock

media that doesnt have great prose, or it has a muddly narrative, or inconsistent characterization

its okay to just like it

you dont have to pretend its good and you dont have to get offended on its behalf when people analyze it and critique it

i read tons of sci fi and fantasy shlock

a lot of its really good, and overlooked because of its genre, but a lot of it just… is haphazardly composed by inexperienced or just not very good authors (or artists or directors etc)

Please Help Me, I'm terrified

Hey guys, if you don't know me my name's Jack, I'm a 22yr old transman, I live with my disabled wife and her family, our cats and chihuahua. I really don't want to have to do this but I've exhausted all options. I don't have any family that can help, so I'm turning to my family on here to see if any might care enough to try and help me. 

The picture above is from my most recent xray. I am in severe pain from all of the problems I have. I have a tooth infection, and impacted wisdom teeth that the dentist said NEEDS to come out and that I've put it off for too long and its causing problems. On top of that I have several broken and cracked / severely decayed teeth that they said are at risk for becoming infected after the upcoming surgery that I have. I've already been on antibiotics for two weeks.

If I get another infection, my insurance is not going to cover it, and the ER wouldnt be able to help. Where I live, there is only a 1000 dollar EMERGENCY only fund for dental work, and I'm using it up with the extraction entirely. My appointment is coming up soon and I have to lose the tooth at 22 years old because it's running the risk of infecting my bloodstream and insurance won't cover the root canal. I can't afford it because my wife is disabled and I'm trying to find work right now, but that's not really going to happen when I'm in so much pain that I can hardly ever eat at all, and I have to heal from this upcoming tooth extraction. 

They said all in all I have over 1000 dollars worth of work that needs to be done, and thats just what's emergent and need to be done as soon as possible. They don't offer payment plans at any of the dentists in my area, and I have already been denied for carecredit, and I cant find any loans. My wife is constantly terrified thinking another infection will kill me, because we've already called and they refuse to do anything to help me even in a dire situation other than that annual amount. I hate that I can't comfort her. We've been living in constant stress and I'm in pain all day long. I do brush my teeth religiously, but it wont fix these problems. My dad also has horrible dental problems, and they seem to think it's genetic. I obviously can't and don't expect the full amount from you guys, I just really want to not be in pain all the time and stop worrying about becoming seriously ill from these infections. I've been having horrible migraines and nausea just from this one tooth.
