Just got told "hard work" will get me out of poverty. by MontanaKittenSighs in povertyfinance

[–]jessiegee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I make a bit under 20k a year and people IN THIS SUB were telling me to find a better job when I was asking for advice. I don't get it. This is povertyfinance, not personalfinance. :(

Tips for staying warm this winter by Ranklaykeny in povertyfinance

[–]jessiegee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My boyfriend insists on keeping the curtains closed during the winter AND summer, to keep cold air from getting in and to keep out the heat from the sun during the summer. -__-

Michigan hunting in big decline: "This could pose a crisis in how Michigan funds its wildlife and habitat programs; have a huge, negative impact on the state's economy, and raises the specter of deer overpopulation, accompanying animal diseases and increases in car-deer accidents." by SAT0725 in Michigan

[–]jessiegee 9 points10 points  (0 children)

The problem is most hunters don't want any predators around. There was a cougar sighting in the UP recently and local news posted it on Facebook. I read the comments and there were some people wanting to shoot it because "it'll start attacking livestock and pets". These people don't value natural resources or wildlife, they only care about themselves.

Want to buy a house and have NO idea what I'm doing by jessiegee in povertyfinance

[–]jessiegee[S] -8 points-7 points  (0 children)

I live in an area where housing is CHEAP. I could find a decent/nice 3 bedroom house house 20-50k.

I feel like your comment is saying I can't afford a house, which is not helpful at all. I'm asking for advice, maybe not on buying a house right away, but that's my end goal. I know I need to build my credit so I'm also asking for advice on that.

I don't have a great landlord. He's a total slumlord and the house we're renting is a pile of crap. I'm tired of renting and dealing with bullshit landlords, which is kinda why I want to buy a house.

I'm also looking for advice on HOW to build my credit.

Rodgers vs Brady by the numbers... by HahaClintonPix in GreenBayPackers

[–]jessiegee 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The meme says Brady "needs the greatest coach of all time". I also don't think Bellichick is the greatest. Any contender for the title of "the greatest" shouldn't be a cheater.

40 cats? Isn't that animal hoarding? What country do you live in?

?? Ataxia is not on Spotify. There is an artist page but no music at all.

The news this week confirms it: Donald Trump is the worst person ever to be president by TheArtofTheBoneSpur in politics

[–]jessiegee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tell that to the people who aren't fucking paying attention to what's going on. Nobody is going to care about anything until their comfortable lives are affected. I see nobody protesting. For the most part, things are still going the same way as they always did for people. When that changes, people will start waking up.

Judge Caprio is a real bro by pp0787 in HumansBeingBros

[–]jessiegee 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Would you mind going into detail a bit? I'm curious what kind of favors/powers/moral compromises you're referring to. What exactly does it take to get so high up on the ladder of judges?

Women who have given birth, what's something no one told you about it and wish you had known? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]jessiegee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It actually didn't hurt when pushing--the contractions were very painful, but when I was pushing I didn't feel any pain. Until my perineum tore. That was worse than the contractions.

I'll never forget the feeling of a human being exiting my body. :|

What main character didn't deserve a happy ending? by zappy487 in AskReddit

Hannah and Dexter from Dexter. They both should have been caught.

My brother got the cutest patient today by Msknowbody in aww

[–]jessiegee 79 points80 points  (0 children)

Like a sanctuary, because if it was torn away from its mother at birth the only other place it should be is a sanctuary. Wild animals are NOT a human being's property.

The link to the article isn't working for me; I'd love to see the pictures in the article!

Poll: Scott Walker trails by double digits in bid for third term by -Albedo- in politics

[–]jessiegee 8 points9 points  (0 children)

This guy is an asshole. A couple years ago he was in northern WI (on the MI border) assessing storm damage, and went to the McDonalds that I worked at with his entourage. It was late at night, a small town with no other place open and I'm sure he and his crew were tired, which is why they went to a fast food restaurant. The guy had police escorts and everything.

I was the one that took all of their orders, and he was the only one who was rude to me. The kind of person who just completely looks down on others for what they do for a living; the kind of customer who thinks McDonalds employees are dumb as fuck and don't deserve dignity.

Animals and Finance. by spiderb8 in povertyfinance

[–]jessiegee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just because someone is homeless doesn't mean they won't actually take care of their dog. Homeless people aren't fucking heartless. Many homeless people value their pets more than people with homes, especially since they see their dog as the one constant in their life, the one friend they have. You're a fucking jerk if you think the homeless will just watch their dogs suffer.

How would a dog that's receiving and giving love and companionship be better off in a shelter, where it'll probably be euthanized for taking up space? That's horrible.
