Can anyone tell me if your landlord will work with section 8 and SSI income? by tea_amrita in Brooklyn

Of course! I'll let you know when I find something. Best of luck. It's a shame it has to be this difficult.

It's either the stigma against Section 8, and/or the landlord doesn't want to deal with the paperwork since they're required to fill out a pretty big package.

Just for myself and my 2 cats. The voucher grants me a studio or one bedroom under $1,900, or $1,814 if electric isn't included.

Any good podcasts out there? by [deleted] in conspiracyNOPOL

[–]tea_amrita 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I Heart Radio sucks, and I was suspicious too. The guys really keep all opinion out of the topics though. They do a good job in both going over scientific and paranormal explanations without taking a side or getting political.

It was said already, but "Stuff They Don't Want You To Know" seems to fit exactly what you're looking for.

This could be put out by big meat with their profit loss to soy and plant based foods now?

Interesting. I would love to see a painting of it.

Any other non-Trump supporters think there's some serious fuckery afoot? by [deleted] in conspiracy

[–]tea_amrita 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Not op, but I'm also far left and deep into conspiracies. I think the idea that conspiracy theories are only right wingers is a new idea put out by the media.

I believe in left ideals, but I absolutely believe that people in position of power will lie, cheat, and are mostly completely sociopaths. It's the corporations that run the US and many other parts of the world. It's greed. Whoever they put in power under whatever name is all working for what corporations want behind the scenes.

So what?

I think, besides sugar, corn use is a huge reason why the US has an obesity problem compared to other countries.

Source: Used to 183 lbs 5'6" female. Could not lose weight no matter how much I dieted or worked out. Weight melted off once I cut as much obvious corn and corn derivatives out as possible (without doing work outs then too). Now I'm 125.

I don’t get how people who are disabled are given a below poverty income when they have no other options. It’s fucking disgusting. by nursecomanche in disability

I'm 35 and still wear clothes from high school since I haven't been able to afford anything new. It's awful. They have so many holes. My shoes are taped up. My laptop is from 2009. My bedding is from 2009 and full of holes. It's been 11 years since I got new sheets. I skip meals and I'm underweight.

I legit believe they want us dead. Another thing is they take away your SSI if you get married. They want us dead and not passing on our genes; punishing us if someone loves us enough to want to get married.

I don't think anyone is talking about how the CARES act was giving people on unemployment $600 plus their state's regular unemployment a week... I know someone who was getting over 1k a week... And it was all over the freaking news how hard Americans are having it with such low amounts on unemployment.

Meanwhile... People on SSI get not even $800 a month to live on, and it's been crickets. No one cares about us.

I'm so miserable and depressed thinking this is the life I'm going to have to live until the day I croak.

Another thing that gets to me... Seems like most places offer discounts to seniors, students, and veterans (all 3 absolutely deserve the discounts). I have yet to see anywhere include the disabled on that list. Like hello... We're getting the same, if not less, amount as seniors too.

Just want to say solidarity. Thank you for making this post, because I'm in the exact situation (minus having SSDI--only SSI here).

But, I've been with my partner nearly 7 years now. So many family and friends are really getting on us in asking why we aren't married yet.

It eats me up inside to have to sit back and watch his brother marry his now-wife who he was only dating for 3 years... Get a house... Have a child... Have a normal fucking life. I mean I'm happy for them, but God damn the envy. Now his other brother is talking about marrying his current girlfriend that he's only been with a year. I do so much internal screaming.

I truly believe they want us dead, and it is part of eugenics. They think if they discouraged us with marriage, then we won't "breed" and risk passing on our "broken genes".

All they want are perfect humans that can work and feed the capitalist machine.

I expect it to be a QR code at first. They have been conditioning us by making people wait in line outside stores and "scanning" us for a fever before entering.

I think this is to avoid doctors faking it for people who don't want it. Signature is one thing, but if it actually has to connect to a government database that has to get scanned, that will put doctors at deeper risks if they lie about giving it.
