I'M SO BAD AT PHONE CALLS TO THE CAR PLACE HELP

[quicksilversquared]

In new updates of Why The Fuck, my car is now refusing to start and I have been waiting on a tow truck for almost two hours. It's probably my battery that's fucked, which is lovely. Those cost a ton (I have a hybrid). Also the logistics of getting to/from work tomorrow are complicated, since my car will be at the repair place.

....hopefully not for a long period of time, because I have places to get to and things to do, and I hate a) relying on public transportation and b) pestering others for rides.

long form stressed out thoughts

Because it's never just one bad thing!

So this past Friday I messed up my shoulder in a way that may or may not be related to the new PT exercises I've had lately. It was a couple of minutes of 10/10, comparable to gallstones, brace yourself 'cause you're gonna die kind of pain, and since then it's mostly settled into just the left side of my trapezius muscle which now feels like a hot angry tennis ball embedded in my back.

Here is an image for visual reference:

Anyway.

Drawing anything with greater fidelity than Angry Tennis Man is proving to be challenging at the moment. Great, cool, fun.

BUT IT GETS BETTER!

So we were out picking up my prescriptions today so that I can continue living and surviving and stuff, and a pickup truck with a Very Good Driver at the wheel, with Very Well Functioning Brake Lights stopped hard in front of us, so we had to stop hard behind him. And doing this apparently was too much for something as-yet-unknown in the brake system of my car, which I just fundraised to get registered and back on the road, because it was the less-broken and more fuel-efficient of our two vehicles. We managed not to hit anything, and we made it home only because the e-brake in my car is working, thankfully. But that's not a long-term solution, or even a good idea.

So now we have two dysfunctional vehicles, neither of which are safe to drive.

We live in an extremely rural area (there are cows everywhere!) so there is no public transit here. I have less than $10 in my bank account thanks to the ongoing shenanigans with Temporary Public Assistance just, deciding they aren't going to do what they said and pay our rent. I have been arguing for months to no avail. We are lucky to be in a situation with someone who is very flexible about this landlording, BUT this was only ever meant to be a temporary situation and there's no human way we can get a foothold on anything when Temporary Assistance says we need to spend all our money on rent, including and especially the assistance money.

So I'm kind of in a panic, because I don't think I can reliably take commissions right now. I wouldn't feel right about it because my arm just goes out when it feels like and I am not getting adequate pain relief from my doctors. I feel like I've worn out my goodwill asking for help on the internet because up until now it's been generally relatively small bills coming up, but doing some research this one could range into around $1000 depending on what is wrong. Which we can't afford to find out in the first place because of the whole "$10 in my bank account" thing.

I am contemplating attempting a GoFundMe because I truly do not know what else to do here. I am terrified it'll disqualify us from SNAP and the other things currently keeping us afloat because they're finicky about income sources. I'm not confident I could even attract enough attention on it for it to be helpful.

I am scared? And I am out of ideas? Anyone out there with suggestions or ideas? I also have a t-shirt and sticker shop and digital comics here and here but ha ha that is not gonna cut it. 😬

I'm absorbing FP from my dash and it sounds like despair and chaos 😭

[sunkentowers]

Me, stressed at work and also Star Trek fandom adjacent. (Knows just enough to get myself into trouble probably) thinking thoughts:

Who does the QC checks on the equipment? What do maintained cycles look like? Are there like, official, official incident reports? And not just the Captian's log? Who backups the data? Does staff receive emails regarding SOP updates that they have to acknowledge? I'm pretty sure there's some sort of safety committee on board, who have to review reports and wow their lives must be so exciting. (: |)

Anyway, get paperworked*

*or data filed, or whatever.
