lambchopp59's Journal4 a.m., can't sleep
I'm in trouble, sinking under my medical and other expenses.
I paid off one of my hospital bills for my 2nd cancer surgery 2 months ago. It was a bad mistake to do, because as soon as I got to work, I learned I was getting laid off, (essentially, I'm a traveler) in 2 weeks. So, that 2 weeks pay is nearly gone.
I'm just over 200 short of sinking my bank account below zero in about 1 month. Both are medical bills, payment on my first surgery (16.000 after insurance, on payment plan) and my PCP's monthly fee.
My PCP is driving me nuts with his secretary calls that I'm now overdue for tests.
Soon as I get some mail information relayed to me I can finish my social security application. But that's a 6 week gap away once that happens. I thought I'd get work by now, but 2 interviews and still no gig.
I may be able to do some local work but getting there is an expense I dare not do unless it's a multi-tasking trip.
I'm so tired from lack of sleep and trying to deal with depression of trying to get work at 63.
Anyway, any help would be greatly appreciated.
So I set up this gofundme.

I'm only asking for what I need. 250 will keep my bank account afloat. Another 250 I can go see my doctor and get the u/s and minimal tests he's driving me crazy to get done. 40 gas, 100 motel 6, various road food, etc.
So I set my goal at 500, plenty to do what I need, fresh food and if the best happens- get me to a job site.
A stern reminder to MAGA'S
When you go to the polls on November 8th, remember that there was no way Donald Trump could have lost the election unless the voting machines switched the count!
So since Diminion and all the voting machine manufacturers are protected by the Democrats who eat children for dinner, the problem still isn't fixed till you get Donald Trump back in power.
So, remember to select all the Democrats on your machine, that way you'll make sure your fascist MAGA candidates get selected.

Holy moly the double hypocrisy of Jesse's crassly slanted criticism of a government solution, goes straight into waxing nostalgic about incarcerative, strait-jacket government solutions that his representative heroes de-funded long ago.
My furry reason for living
https://twitter.com/lambchopp59/status/1572657225835114496?t=8HlB-SgglqZO-LpZHcfiNg&s=19This is Tiago. Short for Santiago. I adopted this crazy pup 2 years ago before I found out about my bladder cancer. He needs some special care: he was likely wandering the northern California fire zone extensively prior to being captured by Ukiah Animal Control. He does well with humans, seems gentle with children but I've always kept a firm hand ready to pull him back just in case the child does something startling. But he feels challenged and defensive around most other dogs.
I've always been able to handle him, and hopefully I'll out-survive him, but's gonna hafta hafta rotsa ruck.
This may sound depressing: I don't let it all get to me much beyond my worry what happens to this animal. I'm not looking for some flowery sympathy shit, so please don't.
But here goes: I've discovered I can't tolerate the treatments 2 different ways. I've always had multiple sensitivities to medications, compounds and food additives. Secondarily, some of the first procedures done by a poor bedside manner practitioner left me with severe PTSD nightmares long after.
Although I've got some options, and a better practitioner with far better approach and willingness to take some extraordinary measures for me, now I'm between gigs, uninsured and unable to do anything more than hope this stays in some remission state. Even if I pick up work now, it will exceed recommended treatment intervals..
My health improved considerably after the first surgery, and no cancerous tissue was found on the second. Still, it's the nature of the high grade tumors to recur. I'll reiterate: I'm gonna need rotsa rotsa ruck.
For now, Tiago is the only emotional support I have aside from any physical support at my home sweet travel trailer.
If this rotten country had socialized medicine like most of the planet, I wouldn't be in this potentially deadly conundrum. The ultimate irony of it all? I work as traveling ancillary medical staff.
I only hope should the worst happen to me that Tiago goes to someone loving who can accommodate a loving, special needs pupster.
In my present situation, if I have the fatal cardiac or cerebrovascular event where I'm at, he'd probably have to eat me and I likely wouldn't be found for months.
Situation of a long term, widowed traveler. I've accepted my likely grisly potential demise.

Undeniably the WORST campaign video ever...
I listened to this just out of curiosity for just how utterly simpleton-appeal banal a "conservative" campaign rap video could be. It's worse than the imagination stretches. Much much worse.

Get a load of this:
I most likely wasted my time posting a reply to this Nazi fool:
Question on Quora: After President Trump is re-elected in 2024, should he set up re-education camps for leftists/communists/democrat people? https://www.quora.com/After-President-Trump-is-re-elected-in-2024-should-he-set-up-re-education-camps-for-leftists-communists-democrat-people?ch=15&oid=127107755&share=a467189c&srid=ubBUua&target_type=question
Leave it to our ex president Carter to say
With more concision and eloquence I can muster about this:

Half the so called Xtians in this country walk right past Jesus's "brethren" starving on the street to go "drink duh little grape juice and eat duh little cracker" in thousand dollar suits, Gucci bags and pumps.
Often the fall into homelessness starts simply falling through the cracks, or by banishment from religious pretentiousness, like in my case, RayGun Era.
No, I didn't drink or "do dwugs". I made solid 3.6 in school. But I got outed as gay in my redneck hometown and "run off" by the same ilk it nauseates me to realize they're cranking up the Nazi shit again.
I've yet to ever have even one single POSITIVE experience from the churchy ilk in over half a century now, other than singing gig in a gay men's chorus.
So before playing the "probably ruined his/her life with drugs" attitude, which may be true now...
It's the excesses and the locked doors at "God's houses" all over the country, the jonesed up extravagances so many parishioners believe they divinely deserve, and token donations only to "help" organizations that only pennies ever reach their intent, while the reality of that person walked past briskly as not to smell the balance of excess is trying to just get through another insanely miserable day.
Otherwise, "Xtians" when anyone is sleeping on that church's doorstep, you've failed the test, you've bamboozled yourself, cloaked yourself in fears, and created an embarrassment to the world that giving a dollar to some homeless person does not come close to a solution.
TFG, like a stopped clock, tangented onto the right idea for the wrong reason, of course, about the homelessness issue. It's everyone's responsibility and it's long past time minimal shelter, voluntary rehab, outreach services (real soup ktchens, not preachy shit) were revived by these jet set church bastards who purport their "goodness and mercy".
And of course Fox News ilk like Tucker have some boogersome karma coming.
