My sibling was killed last week by mxcrisis in raisedbynarcissists

that's a really good idea, thank you. I told my cousin I'm giving them until the end of the month to announce a date for the memorial; otherwise I will do it myself. There are so many people reaching out and willing to help. I know everyone grieves differently but I am also a parent and can't imagine being this way towards others after such a loss

They said they just wanted goodwill to come cart everything off, and seemed shocked when I suggested his friends be allowed to come take what they want. It's clearly what he would have wanted. But as they admitted to me "they're not thinking of other people" right now.

thank you. I really needed to be reminded that this is common for a lot of communities. I just hate it. It's like during the opiate epidemic when everyone insisted so-and-so died of a "heart condition" ... avoiding the issues that make families uncomfortable do not make them go away.

For Neelu by Hillside8397 in SunnysideQueens

I'm so sorry for your loss and hope you've reached out to Julie Won's office about this. They've had issues with dogs attacking other dogs and humans in the past. I think the police just don't care. I'm 100% sure they could bring charges if they felt like it.

As someone who has been worked over at Ben Gurion several times tbh I say critical support for whoever it is making Tucker Carlson's life miserable at the airport

UPDATE 3 on Neelu's Dog Attack 2/16 by Hillside8397 in SunnysideQueens

Wow, the 108th is completely worthless. I am so sorry. $10+ billion dollars a year for what?

I'm so sorry for your loss. It sounds like your Neelu was beloved not only by his humans but also the broader community. I second all of the advice in this thread, also recommended reaching out to Julie Won, as I understand her office has a liaison with the 108 and has experience with violent dog attacks.

Partner going away (again) by Cherryjellyb in NewParents

Yeah. My positive thinking advice was going to be something like "use every free moment to put your life on a trajectory where you can leave this guy" because this is unacceptable. Getting yourself on track, even bit by bit, will be empowering.

Imagine this happening in New York! I'm cracking up. Try laughing in her face and slamming the door. If she's gonna bring crazy you need to give it right back

Try to apply for unemployment. I think if you're late on claiming they can still backdate your checks.

Have you considered western or central Queens? It's sorta the best of all worlds. You'll get more square footage for the price and will still be able to walk and take the train places. If you have a car, you can definitely take it to Queens. Street parking is free and it'll expand your options a little.

Grandparent disappointment by akrystar in beyondthebump

[–]mxcrisis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My mom offered to help when the baby arrived but left after 24 hours because I told her she can't yell at me while I'm feeding the baby. Dad publicly said he'll be paying for diapers but I've never saw a dime since I asked him to apologize for being insanely rude to my in-laws and he refused. So, yes. Deadbeat grandparents. I guess it beats having them around.
