i've helped out many people in need here but at the moment i'm tapped out. scott could really use a hand if anyone could spare him a coupke of bucks.
I’m going to put this out one last time. I am in desperate need. I have very little to eat at home. I have barely had dinner this week and my landlord took what I made for a check due to being behind after getting sick. I only have cashapp right now. If anyone could help me out for a couple weeks?

Reporter: Mayor Adams, are you a cat person or a dog person?
Adams: [smiling] We had a beagle, name of Gregory. Horrible seizures. He was found in a sewer-- he was eating a rat. The rat was dead, he didnt kill it. He was never right. The seizures, he would scream. A human scream

it's me, the kid who felt so bad for her fucked-up stuffed animals that she tried to cuddle and acknowledge each of them equally
I have a mental problem where when I find a weird little fucked up creature at the store that nobody else wants I am compelled to buy it. I have a whole family of them and Mr Cait calls them "my menagerie". anyway here's some weird reindeer (?)

I work for a car insurance company and I just want everyone to know, if you send in pictures of your fucked up car and you got a dog in the background, me and the boys are forwarding that thing around. Your dog is going in the Teams chat. Your dog is the backbone of our morale.
