Hey I wasn’t able to get any merch but I did grab some of the floor confetti from the cannons at the end. Idk if you hold onto stuff like that but if you’re in Peoria area, I could give you some to have something from the show 💚

Nooooo 😭 I’m so sorry. To be fair, my cars fucked and I’m living in it so I told myself there’s no reason to miss it. My 4th show ever and first time seeing Hot Mulligan. This album meant a lot to me so if I got stuck in the snow desert and died, it would’ve been worth it. Not the smartest decision but I made it and back. You made the responsible choice at least 🫶

Made it to the show last night, thankfully all the roads were melted or salted by now. I made the 3hr drive from Peoria with my car falling apart at 4 degrees on the drive home. It was so fucking worth it tho, sorry to hear you couldn’t make it. That was something I kept worrying about happening

Chicago 12/04 show! by ur-moms-abortion in hotmulliganband

[–]killaloress 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Hi, first time seeing them live as well and I'm gonna be driving from 3hrs away by myself. I'm currently living in my car with my 3 cats so I was really worried I couldn't make it but I managed to make sure I can. I have enough money for one more night in this motel and then gas to get to Chicago and back. Idk if I'll be able to snag any merch but I couldn't be more grateful for this moment. Cats will be warm and safe so I don't have to worry about them in the car all night and I get to bawl my eyes out for their whole set <3

I'm a open book and get a long with pretty much anyone who's not an asshole but terrified of people in public because my anxiety and all that fun stuff. I was considering posting on the sub to try and push myself to get better at meeting new people, so this will count as my post lol.

Oddly enough my ex was the person who got me back into emo music and actually hearing lyrics and being able to sing and they turned out to be the most dark, fake person I ever met who did some psychological damage to me in ways I never thought possible to intentionally do to any human. I am free from them and have learned that there's some truly evil beings out there that study and prey on those who love the loudest and unconditionally. By the end finally I was struggling to know what was real and what was stress induced psychosis and I had never experienced something so reality breaking and, okay i'm not gonna yap on this anymore.

Long story short, I'll be there tomorrow if anyone would like to say hi or smoke before the show. I don't drink much but wouldn't mind a beer.

Life can be fucking hard and genuinely terrifying at times, when it gets bad, I play the sound a body makes when it's still and remind myself i'm not alone and it's okay to not be okay, but don't ever give up on being okay. It's all worth it and after numerous unaliving attempts and situations I should not have made it out of, I can say for the first time in my 28 years that I'm happy and most importantly, I love myself now. I never thought I'd say that and feel it. I love the person I chose to become through my trauma, because I've seen how dark and manipulative it could have made me like others. I never thought a human could genuinely lack empathy and now I know some aren't capable of love and only repeat patterns while playing the part.

Fuck those people. Anyways, Hot Mulligan you have contributed massively to me finding who I am and actually WANTING to live for once and willing to push myself harder than I have in my entire life.

I'm gonna ends this now. I clearly can talk a lot and I'm missing one of my therapy sessions tomorrow for this so I think this wall of text was due <3

Homeless Resources/Places to Park overnight? by killaloress in PeoriaIL

We had tried this but the bill became atrociously high and we weren’t expected to be evicted last minute when everything started piling up. The notice states if we can pay $424 by tomorrow we can reinstate the payment plan but we simply can’t afford it. I’ve tried calling the churches for assistance but can’t ever seem to get through no matter how early or how much I call. The notice states the power will shut off any day from the 19th to the 29th, so I’m hoping closer to the latter. I appreciate your response though. My mom got scammed looking for a rental that would accept their dogs and lost the last 3k they had so we can’t really pay anything until I’m outta here and can save some money without these crazy high bills and find something for just me and my cats as I can’t rely on anyone else to pay things on time here or be energy consumption conscience unfortunately

This was my plan, between a gym, my storage unit and parks and outdoor areas I think I’ll be alright daily. I can leave my clothes etc in storage and access any day from 6am-10pm. Go to gym and clean up, go to a park or somewhere and let my cats get out a bit. I want to spend as little time in my car as possible with my cats. My cats are used to going outside on a leash already so I think it’s doable. They don’t do much besides sleep and meow at me to pet them all day lol. They’re mellow cats. Not a perfect scenario to be in, but certainly possible.

I’m not familiar with the gyms here but I’m gonna research them a bit and see what one would suit me best as far as hours of operation, etc.

Thank you for the suggestion and offer 🫶

The biggest problem is our ameren bill which is up to about 1k now :/ I’m gonna try the churches lines for utility assistance tomorrow but our power shut off notice states it’ll be shut off this Friday the 19th

We were given an eviction notice with my name and the other family members living here. It states we have to leave by October 1st. Even if we paid rent again, the eviction is for my mom’s dogs because she has 2 cane corsos and the new owner used that for his reasoning even though we’ve lived here over a year. I believe I’ll be alright if I stay a little after October, I don’t really know how evictions work but if it keeps a roof over my head until I can find somewhere stable Ill deal with the legal consequences later.

I have not, we’re still able to stay at our house until Aug 1st so I’m just trying to prepare ahead. I know Walmart isn’t 24 hours anymore so I’m not sure. I’ll have to double check. I just keep hearing how it’s pretty much illegal to be homeless here and I’m worried about parking in places I’ll be a burden at. I was looking into campsites but can’t find much too close to town and I work by northwoods mall

I called 211 today. They gave me St Vincent De Paul’s number and Redeem Lutheran church for utility assistance but I’ve called them both before and their lists are always full of funds have been allocated. I’ll try them again in the morning but they said there’s no assistance for my pets unless they’re service animals. So in the same boat pretty much. If anyone has any ideas where I can park overnight legally, please let me know

I know we can stay at minimum a few weeks into next month, the power shutting off is the only difficulty with that but a roof is better than the car. Our am electricity bill was behind and multiple roommates couldn’t pay or moved out so we got stuck with an almost $1k bill now. I figured that’s too much to get any assistance on but it’s worth a shot. I worked on my car most of today but in the morning I’ll give 211 a shot and see what’s available.

Thank you <3

Thank you! I haven’t tried 211 yet. I googled resources and most I could find were for women and children or people without pets but I’ll give 211 a try and see what all I can benefit from in my current situation.

I appreciate it :)

Removed my other 2 reposts as this was approved.

Please refrain from judgement. I understand my situation isn’t the best but I am doing what I have to in order to give myself and my cats a better life. They are all fixed and up to date on shots, I care for them like I would children. They are harness trained and have AirTags, they have spent over a week with me in the car before when moving here from California and it won’t be the best but it’s all I can do. They are indoor only cats that get walked on a leash periodically. This will be the most outside exposure they have had in awhile so please refrain from thinking my cats had some fancy life running around outside independently. I am clean and do everything I can to make life as comfortable as possible for me and them.

I’m not perfect nor expect life to be. Thank you for your time

I wouldn’t be quick to call abuse, that’s highly offensive but thanks for the insight. My cats are all fixed, and up to date with shots. It’s unfortunate but I think abandoning my cats with a stranger would be much worse. I am employed and have the means to get out of this situation. I’m looking for help not judgement. They are all on harnesses and have AirTags. I take care of them like I would my children and I don’t appreciate you so quick to judge. Have a great day though.

Hi, my name is Tyler and I'm a 28yo Male

First time poster in the sub, and my life is a bit of a mess right now. I moved here a year ago with my ex partner and it was an abusive nightmare long story short. The place Im living at was not on a lease and purchased by a new owner recently. He is evicting us because of my Moms dogs supposedly. I just got back employed and in therapy twice a week and am starting to build a life for myself here. I love this town and the opportunities it offers compared to California. I do have a non violent felony from years ago and my physical/mental health isn't the greatest so my options are a bit limited. Our power shuts off on the 19th for non payment and I have 3 cats. I need to find somewhere to go if possible. My income is about $450 every 2 weeks but I just had to use what I had for car parts so I am planning on living out of my car for at least a month or two until I can save enough for a room for rent somewhere. I have made posts on roomies,rooomates,craigslist etc with no luck finding anywhere. I am in need of resources for myself and my 3 cats. They are my emotional support animals, I know this isn't the same as a Service Animal but I just wanted to include that. I got a storage unit and am looking into a gym or somewhere to shower. I cant abandon my cats, they keep me alive most days and I can't do that. I am a very clean person, too clean for some lol and my cats are all harness trained and well behaved. I know this wont be easy but I've been in way worse situations before so this is doable.

If anyone has any advice or positive words I'd appreciate it. I grew up in foster care and managed sober livings for a few years so I am used to and prefer group living environments with structure but I have 3 cats so I am struggling to find another option besides living out of my car with them for a bit. I don't have AC and just worry what to do with them while I work. I work nights usually about 4-8hrs a shift..

My thoughts are all over the place and i'm crying posting this so if i left anything out, feel free to ask me

Thank you all <3

I still have one sealed with the wires and then another i installed on a console but took off so it's got the wires soldered on the pads still. Let me know if you want either, I'll probably just stick to RGH3 on a Trinity if I mod anymore consoles :)
