Trying to pay these bills to prevent eviction, internet shut off, and to allow us to sign a new lease at our current place. They need bills paid up. And car insurance auto-withdrawals from our bank account. The car payment getting paid means we avoid getting behind and getting the car taken from us.

Water/Sewer/Garbage: $107.34
Internet: $196.75
Car insurance: $126
Car payment: $245.46
Rent portion: $400

~AYA SPEAKS OUT ON CHALLENGES IN MENTAL HEALTH CARE~

To this day, we struggle with troubles in the mental health care sphere. People can’t be completely open with their care providers due to institutionalised mechanisms such as involuntary hospitalisation.

I speak from experience on this myself.

This needs to change.

Gosh, they went from "we're seeking private investment" to "this instance is shutting down" in about 3.5 hours? :D

This whole thing has been a tiny, fascinating, horrifying rollercoaster-wreck...

I've got about 32 hours left, then things start to really fall apart for my personal safety.
Anything helps.

A share, a like, a word of encouragement...anything.

So, I have decided to keep pretty much all of my activity at Octodon for the time-being. ^-^;; It's too much work to maintain a consistent presence over multiple instances at this time, although I have set up a number of other accounts for whenever I wish to branch out. ^_^

I will admit this was a part (a small one, but a part nonetheless) of why I wasn't around as much.

Thank you to each and every one of you for your patience and understanding. <3 I love all of you.

Someone is enjoying the vet. Probably will change her mind when getting chipped

"FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla. (Reuters) - The Florida Senate rejected a proposal to ban assault weapons, and voted for a measure to arm some teachers, weeks after 17 people were killed in the deadliest high school shooting in U.S. history."

I'm not sure how to deal with living in a world where The Onion makes more sense than Reuters and the AP. 😢 🙁 😠 😦

Money is not speech.

Corporations are not people.

Something being legal does not make it moral.

What we don't do, generally, is talk about school as an authoritarian environment and what happens to well intentioned people in a system that values the maintenance of order and the status quo. You get a culture where it's much easier to be a petty tyrant and to enforce the system's expectations than it is to "make a difference". You get, in short, something that looks a lot like what cops do.
