We just got off the phone with DHS. We are not losing our Snap after all. We are exempt from the work requirements due to disability.

Just got done with my first new physical therapy for EDS. It didn't go well.

We are here for your fish:

My wife and I are both disabled and waiting on the state to finish processing our SSI and disability claims. Thanks to our internet friends we have our van insurance covered for another month, but we are down to a couple miles in gas and almost out of cooking fuel. Fortunately our snap benefits will be here tomorrow as we are rather hungry. We are in need of $35 to make it a few more weeks. Any amount will help. Thank you for sharing this post and donating if you can.

Edit: The van is having trouble and my mechanic friend suggested we change the fuel filter and keep the gas tank above half full. At current prices that is $20 for the filter and $60 for the gas.

Between my wife and me we have 22 medical appointments this month.

This is relatable:

My wife and I are both disabled artists living in our van while we wait for the state to finish processing our claims. Insurance is due at the end of the week and we need food, water and butane for the stove. Gas for the van to get to all of our doctor appointments is also needed.
We have the money for the insurance or everything else, but not both.
We need $50 to make to all of our appointments and eat this week. Any amount will help! Please consider donating. Thank you.

Just got a letter from DHS. We will be losing our snap benefits at the end of the month because my disabled wife isn't trying to find a job. Most days she can't get out of bed. We have called them multiple times to explain that we are both waiting on them to process our disability claims.
Not sure how we're going to do this.

I think, maybe, the world would be a better place if everyone could hold in their minds that we are all one massive lifeform called Earth that woke up long ago. Meta cells along with everything else.
I think that's how we stop being a cancer and start living in some kind of equilibrium with each other and the rest of the world.
I didn't come into existence suddenly as a separate being. I was part of my mother before she was born just like you and your least favorite person.

I have my first chiropractor appointment in a couple decades this afternoon. But first, we are going to the dentist for my wife.
Sometimes it feels like our health care is a full time job.
Edit: she has a doctor's appointment this afternoon, too...

I woke up hopeful this morning. Then I saw the news. I'm losing my faith in humanity again. Isn't using white phosphorus on humans a war crime?

Good morning.

I just got a call from the disability determination board. They asked me some questions I can't remember because I had a huge panic attack.
She says maybe they will have an answer in two or three weeks.

The false spring is over and the snow has returned.

Is the opposite of a knight a kday?

At friend's house doing dishes when I hear water pouring out of something in the basement... Water was coming out of the underside of the toilet... A plumber is coming tomorrow...
My theory is that our friend's husband added the last brick to a fatberg he has been working on for a few years before he left for work.

I'm hoping to get an accurate translation of the word "Sokukoji." It is translated as "Instantly Orphaned" on Google translate, but my former teacher says it means "Order of Immediate Light."
Are there any fluent #japanese speakers here that would help?

And they were all yellow.

Another day another trip to DHS. Hopefully they will get everything sorted out now...
