Calling all dog lovers!
This guy (I call him WreckEm Ralph) has decided to live in my apt complex. I wish I could adopt him but I'm too poor. I've been trying to find him a home & I think one of the tenants is going to keep him. She's an awesome lady (Polly) with a heart of gold. But she's also 70! She's fit enough alright & she has another dog who Ralph loves so it's a perfect match. They will be so happy!
So here's my ask. I would like to help Polly with the costs of rescuing him; at least to fix/deworm/vaccinate etc him so she doesn't have to go broke

So — growing up, my mother was violently mentally ill. She had BDP/Histrionic & Munchausen. When she was good, NO ONE was sweeter. But when when she was flipping out she was a monster.
She used to hold me & my sister hostage w/threats of suicide ALL THE TIME. On more than one occasion, she made us (we were between 2-12 thru the yrs) physically pull a Colt .45 out of her mouth & she would also lament

@amazon & @PrimeVideo are some stone cold grifters. They charge me for 6 months for a subscription I never ordered. I called them on it & they immediately promised to refund the money. As you can see in my 1st interaction 3 days ago, I specifically asked if I would be refunded for the ENTIRE amount they stole & was told YES. I waited, no sign of the $65 they owe me so I went back today & was gaslit for 2 fucking hours. Today it was all ’when exactly were you promised a full refund'? & 'our side tells a different story' & they acted like they were

So I did something. For joy. I needed it.

I built this stand from a kit. It was ornery! Which was odd, because all the directions began with "Please".

& 2 pieces were missing. I didn't let that slow me down because I was on a mission! And, here we go!
