- One of everything, please
- JSYK, they've added a $6 fee to every delivery in NYC. The companies just dumped it all on the customers and now I am struggling to get groceries. I don't blame Mayor Mamdani for that AT ALL, I think the billionaires should eat the costs instead of people literally using SNAP to get food delivered
- I'm a freelance data analyst at the moment and so if anyone actually DOES have a bunch of raw data and needs some analytics to get into cons, I'll do it for free since *this is stupid*

- I finally put my not-money where my digital mouth is and joined Loops; pls enjoy Jasper saying no puparazzi. loops.video/v/dyWqJpKVJa
- Great, so my gfm is going to have to be for an ENTIRE YEAR's rent to stop us from losing the apartment. This is fine. It's no big deal to raise a casual forty thousand, right???? (My hope is to raise it, get a job, and give it all back or pay it all forward.)
- It's too cold to walk the dog and Jasper is already significantly overweight! I have absolutely no room for him to get any exercise and if I try to feed him less he eats bedclothes! Anxiety! Everything I post is a stress fest, I need to find something good ...
- Reposted by rueMay as well dive right in. Did you know that dogs in ancient Mesopotamia also refused to drop the ball? According to a Sumerian proverb, “The dog understands ‘Take it!’ It does not understand ‘Put it down!’” Source: cdli.mpiwg-berlin.mpg.de/artifacts/34...
- Is there an attorney or someone similar out here who can advise me pro bono on the safety of disclosing that someone is trans to the federal government? For the safety of my family this SNAP application now feels loaded and dangerous. Birth certs were never asked for before.

- Okay, #UglyDogs, I'm taking *this* as my cue to actually attempt a setup of an atproto PDS on my VPS. I super can't afford the bandwidth costs to let very many people use it yet, but I'm going to start chewing on it in addition to how I need to start a ko-fi fund for my rent and to sell some work

- I'm sad to see this confirmed but are we super surprised that the scorer of Hillbilly Elegy is a transphobe when he is definitely someone who chooses what he works on
- Genuine question for dogs (and maybe dog people): how is this comfortable? @jasper.dog isn't telling.

- Reposted by rueI was not bullied because I was Autistic. I was bullied because other people were cruel. I was bullied because other people were not Autistic and didn't understand Autistic people. And no, I would not like to be more like them just to make them stop.

- That was job application number two thousand. Literally. I'm going to need to do another GFM in order to pay rent I guess. Anyone telling me to move gets peed on by my dog - there are always many new jobs here, I don't drive, and nowhere will give an apartment to someone with no income.

- Also a tragedy: applying for SNAP in a Trump admin. The hoops are literally 18 documents per household deep and I don't even have some of this stuff!
- My internet is such a goddamn tragedy. Having only one option for service in this location is absolutely unacceptable (wouldn't have moved into this building if I had known!)
