Here’s the thing that has me exited to do this: not only does this shit guarantee that I won’t lose my home just because some pig cop is having a particularly sour day; it also gives me a source of income. I know it isn’t a stellar one, but idc. I’m weird; I can live happily on like $20 a day. And I could make more than that: I love driving, I get awesome MPG, I don’t have rent to pay, and I got nothing better to do lol.

So yeh, CashApp/Venmo: allthetimesivedied.

I’ve always wanted one of these. Friend of mine traded it to me for my never-gonna-use 1,000W inverter, and also gave me a new battery for my car!

Yesterday he signed a bill targeting abusive “troubled teen” facilities. Someone who will always be special to me was sent to one of these. They’re probably happy right now—that I’ll never know for sure doesn’t even matter.

When you administer naloxone to someone who’s addicted to opioids, they experience something called precipitated withdrawal. One of the symptoms of precipitated withdrawal is you shit your pants, a lot.

To spare you the unnecessary details, my $80 awesome as fuck sleeping bag bravely gave his life.

And I might need to disinfect and scrub the front passenger seat of my car.

I’m not steamed about any of this. But I need to take a nap and I have no blanket or anything.

One of my friends is kinda traumatized and I want to buy us dinner or something—some kind of thing the three of us can do to take the edge off.

I also want to kick some money to the guy whose life we saved. He’s homeless just like we are. But he’s obviously in bad shape right now and I want to give him even just a thin ray of sunshine. Even if it’s just $20 or something.

DM me for my CashApp, Venmo, and/or PayPal.

So I can make sandwiches, specifically, almond butter (or peanut butter) & honey. WAY better than peanut butter & jelly. When I have the necessary crap I eat like 6 of them a day. I have peanut/almond butter, no bread, and I’m running out of honey.

I’d like to get something to drink, too, but idk.

CA/Venmo: my username.

Thanks.

The $20 last time only filled it a bit more than half way. This car gets great gas mileage but I’ve been running the heater a lot. Maybe that’s why.

I also am hungry and wanna get some snacks and stuff.

DM me for CashApp/Venmo/PayPal.

Side note, registering this car is going to be way less than I expected, like somewhere north of $100. I have to get my ID replaced first though.

Some car-related expenses, some groceries & stuff

The headlights (both of them) went out (brights still work, but I want to y’know fix things that are wrong like a normal car owner). Still need fix-a-flat and stuff.

I also need to get a bottle of honey and a loaf of bread so I can make the sandwiches that have been a staple of my diet recently. And some other groceries. I’m fuckin’ hungry.

CashApp/Venmo: look at my username.

DM me for PayPal info.

Now that I have a car, I can buy groceries instead of always doing DoorDash or buying expensive ass ready-to-eat shit.

I need a loaf of bread and a bottle/jar of honey so I can make peanut/almond butter & honey sandwiches (probably my favorite breakfast/snack kinda thing). I’d like to get a tote/bin thing to put all my “food” stuff in. The rest will be for whatever—I never make up a grocery list, I just walk into Kroger and let the fates decide.

DM me for my CashApp/Venmo if you can’t figure it out lol. Or DM me for my friend’s PayPal.

It’s not registered, which is something I’m going to take care of as soon as possible. Until I do that, there’s a risk of being “green tagged” by the city, which is usually mitigated by not staying in a spot for too long.

(It’s entirely possible I have nothing to worry about, since I don’t have a pile of bikes strapped to the roof or a bunch of obnoxious people coming to buy fentanyl at 3AM, but still.)

I also want to be able to run the heater, and charge my phone.

I also have some other crap I’d like to buy. Like dinner, if I can’t get to the Thai place that gives me free food before they close—and a decent pair of gloves, so that I can collect recycling shit (now that I have a vehicle, I can potentially make decent money doing bottle returns, because I have a place to stash bags of cans and stuff), because my hands get VERY cold VERY easily.

DM me for my money links. I have CashApp, Venmo, & PayPal.

Need ⛽️ (literal gasoline) + a request for a couple more treats

I’m running quite low on gas, which I need to run the heater and uhh *checks notes* move the car (which has to be done somewhat frequently until I get it registered) and stuff. $20 should be enough, because this is a tiny little car that gets good gas mileage.

I also need a can of something colloquially referred to as “fix-a-flat.” I have no clue how much that will cost, but my guess is around $10.

DM me for my CashApp/Venmo (if you can’t figure it out), or for my friend’s PayPal.

I also have a few more requests for things that are wants rather than needs—or rather a request, because I forgot what the other one was.

This summer I lost my leather jacket—someone either stole it or threw it away, along with almost everything else that I owned at the time.

Two years ago someone very very special to me gave me my first leather jacket—specifically a motorcycle jacket, the kind with the weird little pockets and a belt. I safety-pinned a hammer and sickle onto the back, wrote “ADDICT” in white paint marker above it, and on the lapels, “I will never be/A real girl.” And then I fucked it off. It took me a year or something like that to find a leather jacket that I was happy with. That was the one that was stolen/thrown away.

Prices vary—there are 5 vintage/consignment stores in walking distance, each with a unique score on the Bougie Scale. But the price range I’ve observed is roughly $50-$100.

Also:

I’ve been leaning on this comm a lot since I created this account one year ago. You’ve helped me a lot, but I don’t plan on being dependent on this website forever—that just isn’t sustainable, and it gets old, if it hasn’t begun to already.

I am actually getting close (I think) to launching my blog/media empire, which will diversify my portfolio, you could say.

And once I register the Scion and get my license, I can start doing DoorDash, and probably other bullshit. I could have that done in as little as a month, maybe.

Thanks for all your help.
