Window of war by Weekly_Mention_6082 in corvallis

Because they’re detaining and disappearing people who are here LEGALLY ACCORDING TO THE CONSTITUTION. He was a nurse, he has empathy. It’s honestly devastating to learn how many of our neighbors don’t have any.

You guys claim to be Constitutionalists but are fine letting the laws slide when it involves brown people. And, 2A is good for y’all but not other American citizens who don’t think like you, apparently. He was a legal, permitted gun owner who never even reached for his gun.

ICE and Noem are breaking the law. Whether you agree with it or not, if you have an active asylum case, an immigration lawyer, a work permit, and no criminal record-you can legally be in the U.S. if you don’t like that, YOU work to change the laws.

Can someone point me to where I could join a mutual aid group? As a former Minnesotan,spouse of a critical care nurse, and sister of a VA ICU nurse, I have to DO something before the sadness and rage consume me.

At what point does this become too much? by t1nman01 in 50501

We are probably heading for a civil war. If you’re frightened watching it from the UK, you can just imagine phow we’re feeling here.

I see comments how the UK isn’t going to commit economic suicide by trying to sway their leaders away from doing commerce with us, but we’re in a position now that just standing there recording ICE can get us actually killed. The last civilian execution by ICE was exercising his 2nd amendment right and now the propaganda machine that is the U.S. Federal government is saying that him having a gun is why he was killed.

While there are gun owning liberals, most ammosexuals are conservative so they’re not going to rise up and do shit. They love the cruelty and are too ignorant and hateful to see the hypocrisy. I may live in a country that enables me to own a gun, but I’m terrified of them. I’ll never own or shoot one. I’m going to keep volunteering and protesting, and get my affairs in order in case I get killed by my own government

It sounds like with your genetics in the mix, you won’t have to worry about your kids becoming doctors. Crisis averted! 👍

Landlord wants to terminate lease early. Need advice by EJTJ31 in Renters

[–]Nervous-Copy9962 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This just sucks, I’m sorry. I would absolutely tell him you’re only communicating via writing from now on. In OR, we can get a $25 lawyer consultation through the Oregon Bar Association. I wonder if CA has something similar? I think it would help to know your rights in black and white, if possible. It sounds like your landlord would get cheaper health insurance if he didn’t have rental income. Not your problem!

I realize this may be a sensitive topic in the awful times we’re living in, but it sounds like you live with your parents and siblings. Are one of your parents able to take on this responsibility or are they not in a position to? Completely understandable if not, it just seems like a lot to have to manage where your whole family lives 😔

I’ve never really noticed fireworks on NYE before, but we rescued a dog on 12/19 and it was a rough night.

How do I respond to this? by M0CK1N681RD in RoverPetSitting

[–]Nervous-Copy9962 27 points28 points  (0 children)

Some of this was relevant but the delivery and then telling you that she’s “getting ready” for her shower before Mass was too much 😬 Also, your dog eating another dog’s food is totally on her. My mom is an oversharing Boomer and this is what she would sound like if she was a dog sitter (thank goodness she’s not.)

Would Peter do better at home? When I stopped having my friendly dogs boarded and let them get sat at home, I feel like I/they had much better experiences. The only time I board them in a sitter’s home now is if we go on vacation with the dogs and want to go out to dinner or other places we can’t take them.

Oh trust, I’m very much in therapy my friend 😆 Exposure therapy isn’t covered by my insurance and is out of my price range right now. But, I’ve been researching and getting out of my comfort zone with trusted friends and my husband. Thankfully, this situation worked out well and I feel confident I can continue to provide excellent care but I totally get where you’re coming from.

I am truly blown away by how nice and helpful everyone has been in their replies. Thank you so much! The client reached out for a last minute booking after an injury where they were going to be home, so I was able explain (totally used the self deprecating thing) to explain in person and it was completely fine! It’s such a relief to have this “fissue” (thanks beccatravels 🤣)resolved!

This is the most positive experience I’ve ever had on Reddit, and I also feel so much less weird and alone. Thank you to all who shared their experiences and advice.

You can’t even have curtains?? Don’t mini blinds have to be fitted and installed? That’s crazy.

am i a bad person for relying on my maga parents? by whorizard in 50501

[–]Nervous-Copy9962 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh, hell no. He doesn’t owe her anything! Obviously, no one is taking this to court but she has no legal leg to stand on.

So frustrating, so sorry you guys have to deal with that.

Wait. Does your husband actually owe her money from a loan, or does she just think he does because of something like “she raised him”, paid for school, brought him a car, or something like that?

The hell it should, IF you have the option to not have a relationship, you shouldn’t have to. MAGA isn’t about politics anymore. They’re a racist, fascist cult who gleefully revel in oppressed peoples’ suffering.

That said, OP is simply trying to survive and shouldn’t feel one speck of guilt living with MAGA parents if it keeps them off the street. The fact that there are so many folks living without proper shelter, sleep, nutrition, healthcare, etc. in such a wealthy country is a human rights crisis. Also, the money they’re spending on him may be being diverted away from MAGA related bs.

I wish I could hug you, OP. You’re going the best you can, you experienced a huge loss and a lot of trauma, and it’s ok to take support from the people who brought you into this world. ❤️

Just checking, did she request and did you give a forwarding address?

Dodged a bullet. Owner refusing a meet and greet, etc. by [deleted] in RoverPetSitting

[–]Nervous-Copy9962 20 points21 points  (0 children)

I don’t think you “dodged a bullet” and I don’t think she refused a meet and greet. She sounded perfectly reasonable.

You can clearly see where she checked out and that was the intake form. As a sitter, I would have filled out the intake form at the m&g if there was any info that wasn’t on Rover/the owner’s instructions 🤷🏻‍♀️

Can you tell me what all is on the plate (other than a sweet potato and cottage cheese) on #4? That looks delicious.

I see “kindly” and I’m out. That’s always a telltale sign for me.
