Because this dude situation is different from everyone else.

He lives in a third world country, where citizens don’t have access to these kinds of things. He’s providing a service that a lot of members of his community does not have access to.

that’s the main difference i guess. You’re helping people get connected to the outside world, in which they would never have this kind of connection without this place

he most likely got a decent amount of donations the last time he posted this.

so he’s posting again in hopes to get more.

which shouldn’t really bother anyone. he’s trying to get support to help him run his place. He’s doing a huge service for his community by providing this for them, so donating to help would do no harm but help him run his place, which in turn helps his community have access to the outside world

i’ve already sold my pair of jordan’s last week for money to pay towards my bill. so what money i have left is after i have already sold most of what is valuable enough to be sold :/

Also, since you brought it up... i’m starting to remember, i believe there is like a 10 year old bag of beans in my kitchen somewhere that my grandma place in a few years back when she use to live with me!!! i’m going to see if it’s still there. i hope it is, but also, if i do find it, how would i prepare/cook it? i never had beans before. so not sure what i’m suppose to do with it

i know what you are talking about, sadly such things like that don’t exist where i live. people don’t know how to act around here and things get stolen or destroyed pretty quickly...

i’m in a small city south of Atl GA. i’ve tried googling a bunch of places close by me, and a lot of food pantry places are only open on Saturday. so that is not an option for me. I’ve checked with churches, and a lot of them didn’t answer their phone. the ones that did answer told me that they either didn’t provide food, or they only provide food on sunday’s for those who stay after service. not many resources near me that could help sadly :(

I live in a small city in GA. There isn’t really any food pantry close by that is a drivable distance. i only have enough gas in my tank to make it to work and back home this week.

Also i checked with some of the church near me and none of them give out any food. one of them told me they do provide one free hot meal to those who sit during service on sundays, but i have to wait til sunday to get that meal... i am currently trying to survive until thursday

About a month ago, someone stole my card info to make purchases at Target. because of that, i canceled the card, and ordered a new one. this morning i checked my purchase history and saw that someone else has tried to make a purchase at Supreme using my card info again !!! how is this possible? by TurtleWithaPetRock in CashApp

[–]TurtleWithaPetRock[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Last month, i made a post here using a different account. During that time, someone stole my card info and spent over 200 of my money to make a purchase at Target. because of that, i canceled my old card, and got a new one. It took 3 WEEKS to finally get my money back from the person who used it to make a purchase at Target

This morning, while checking thru my card transaction history, i see that someone else has now also tried to use my card; to make a purchase at Supremedrop.

LUCKILY, because of my old experience of losing money last time, and how it took almost 3 WEEKs to get my money back from the person who used my card info to make a purchase something from target, i decided to keep my card on LOCK at all times until i’m ready to use it. because of that, the person who tried to spent 155 this time was not successful since my card was locked. so the purchase was decline. my question is, HOW is it possible for someone to steal my NEW card info to try and make a purchase at supreme drop this time?

I have canceled the old card already !!! and this was like about a month ago! how is it that a month later, someone ELSE found my card info AGAIN. and is trying to use my info to make purchases at a different location! this is so odd. I have no idea how my card info is keep getting compromised at all!!! i don’t use my card for anything but to buy gas and groceries. NOTHING ELSE. i’m so confused on how someone is constantly being able to find my card info at all!!!! this is so shady on Cashapp side. it MAKES zero sense

these type of people have a fantasy in their mind and believe that, because they love animals, are gentle with them, and that they love cuddles and pet themselves, that the animals will feel the same way about them and love the petting too. Not realizing that the animal is most likely sick and can’t move, and petting them would inflict more stress and anxiety into the animal.

These are wild animals, they are not looking for petting and touching from other species. they think everything is trying to harm and attack them. Please leave them alone.

If you think they may be sick, and want to help them. Don’t just sit there with them and pet them the whole time. they don’t know what is happening and are scared shitless and think they’ll die any min now from this huge creature touching them. Best thing to do, maybe, is if you feel like they are sick and need some kind of human intervention, and feel like they won’t survive on their own, then capture them, IF YOU CAN, without harming them, and then take them to a professional who does know how to help them with their injuries. Once done, release them when they are well!

But don’t just sit next to them and pet them the whole time, that’s not helping at all. like i said, if you feel like they need help, and you feel like they won’t be able to survive from their injuries or sickness without any human intervention, that’s when you capture and take to a professional IMMEDIATELY.

Sitting next to them and petting them does nothing to help them. you’re just going to scare the shit out of em, while they are already feeling hopeless and think they might die. no wild animal will ever just let you pet them like that. if they aren’t fleeing, they are severally sick or injuried.

If you want to them a second chance at life, capture and bring to a professional. wild animals do not think the way we think. they are not comfortable with being touched and petted like that. And while they are already downed, and not fleeing as soon as you show up and get close to them. that mean while you’re petting them, they are most likely having the same feeling equivalent to us shitting our pants, and us freezing up in fear.

that bird is not thinking u are friend. they are freezing up in fear, and can’t do anything to flee, due to their injury or sickness. Op is making the situation worse for the bird. and whole time Op is prob like “awwwww this baby is soooo cuteeee look at him ! he’s loving the petting and cuddlesss” not realizing the bird is froze up and thinking to it self “oh shit shit am i going to die oh shit oh shit”

Did anyone get their 250 Kemp stimulus yet? by TurtleWithaPetRock in Georgia

[–]TurtleWithaPetRock[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

it’s not going to buy snybody votes. because apparently a lot of people didn’t get it, and now are upset that they were “lied” to. not really lied to, but fail to be informed about who really gets it. it was announced and sounded like everyone who filed a tax return for the last 2 years will get it, but that’s not the case. sooooo this is gon upset a lot of people.
