I don’t wanna be around my shitty family and yet I have nothing else to do today. So I guess I’m just gonna do Uber eats. I made 420 bucks yesterday doing it. Maybe I’ll make like 300 today. That will be the silver lining on this shite holiday
Wow that's an impressive bag for uber eats these days. I always took Christmas off when I did food delivery because I figured most restaurants are closed.
Honestly same man. I lost so many friends to lies from my abusive ex husband so I'm just sitting with my dog drinking wine and crying in -15F haven't had a non online friend in a year.
I'm counting the fucking hours until it's over. hatehatehate it. Everybody on the grid baking treats and the power goes out 8 fucking hours.
This has been bleak no lie.
I luckily have power but my apartment has no insulation so I'm just cuddled up with my dog and a space heater plus comforters covering my walls. You'd think an apt in Chicago would be insulated but slumlords. But this next shot is to you.
RLTO if they control the heat, there's a minimum. If not you're out of luck, I have godawful insulation too.
I'm sadly aware and he does control the heat but he's already doing illegal shit (my abuser owes him 700 and he's making me pay it back when the abuser doesn't live here) and frankly I can't afford to hunt for another apartment that also has a back yard for my precious pitbull
Fucked. Good luck, talk to a tenants rights org if you get capacity and maybe they can make landlord turn up the heat without terminating your lease at the end.
I'm sorry to hear that. Christmas has way too much of a stigma about it, it can be very overbearing when you don't want to spend it with your family, especially since your friends will probably only want to be with theirs.
Maybe let your friends know if one of my friends didn't have anyone to be around on Christmas I'd happily invite them to spend it with my family
My parents were devout but ultra-progressuve Catholics my whole life, they stopped going to church back in 2020 because they were fed up with the church's politics.
This post made me sad that I'm not seeing family for Christmas. So I checked my family's social media. I'm not sad anymore.
I'm sorry for you, comrade. It does get easier with practice though.
getting bounced between airports and hotel vouchers for the last 72 hrs after spending a week with so's cousin who builds predator drones. of course they are blaming unions for this.
