3 Reasons Your House Should Have a Security System

Installing a security system in your home is an important step in ensuring safety and peace of mind. In today's world, where safety concerns are increasingly prevalent, a home security system is not just a luxury but a necessity. Understanding the significance of such systems can highlight why it's essential to have one in your home.

Deterrent to Burglaries and Intrusions

The most immediate benefit of a home security system is its role as a deterrent to burglars and intruders. Homes without security systems are more likely to be targeted by burglars. The presence of a security system, signified by cameras or alarm system signage, can make your home less attractive to potential intruders. This preventive aspect is crucial in safeguarding your property and the safety of your family.

Monitoring and Emergency Response

Modern security systems offer continuous monitoring services, ensuring that any unusual activity is quickly detected and addressed. In the event of a break-in, fire or other emergencies, the system can immediately alert local authorities, providing a swift response. This aspect of a security system is invaluable, especially in situations where every second counts. Additionally, services like ADT bill payment assistance ensure that financial difficulties do not interrupt your monitoring services.

Peace of Mind

A significant yet often understated benefit of having a home security system is the peace of mind it brings. Knowing that your home is protected 24/7, whether you are there or away, can alleviate the stress and anxiety associated with safety concerns. For those worried about the costs associated with these systems, ADT bill payment assistance can offer solutions to make security services more affordable.

In conclusion, installing a security system in your home is a wise investment. It not only acts as a deterrent to potential intruders but also ensures continuous monitoring and quick emergency response. Moreover, the peace of mind it provides is invaluable. Understanding and utilizing support services like bill payment assistance can make these systems accessible and maintain continuous protection for your home and family.

god i am having such a conundrum right now i'm quitting my shitty job and trying to decide how best to do it. do i

1) last day this friday. i have an interview thurs and am pretty confident in a 2nd interview next week, so quitting now would free up time to prep for interview and hopefully recoup some sanity before starting a new job. con is that i have one fewer paycheck before may rent is due so i'll have to start using my savings sooner if i end up being unemployed for more than a month

2) last day on the 21st. i have to fuck around with trying to get time off for interviews and probably get written up for attendance, shitty job remains a massive psychic and physical drain that prevents me from job hunting and i would risk having to jump straight into new job without a breather. overall worse for charlie, but i would have a fat paycheck to pay may rent with which would buy me a few more weeks of financial security if it takes longer than anticipated to find a new job.

3) some secret third thing.

How we can get Quick Cash Loans Unemployed Even Have Bad Credit

In today's uncertain economic climate, many individuals find themselves in a challenging situation of being unemployed and having bad credit. When faced with unexpected expenses or financial emergencies, it can be daunting to think about how to obtain quick cash loans unemployed bad credit. However, despite being unemployed and having a poor credit history, there are still potential options available to get the financial assistance you need.

One of the first steps to consider when looking for quick cash loans while unemployed and with bad credit is to research and explore different lending options. Traditional banks and financial institutions may be less likely to approve loans for individuals without a steady source of income or with a low credit score. However, there are alternative lending options such as online lenders, credit unions, or community banks that may have more flexible lending criteria and be willing to work with borrowers with bad credit and no job.

Another option to explore is a secured loan. Secured loans require collateral, such as a car or a property, which can serve as a form of security for the lender. If you default on the loan, the lender has the right to seize the collateral to recover their losses. Since secured loans are less risky for the lender, they may be more willing to approve a loan even if you have bad credit or are unemployed. However, it's crucial to understand the risks involved and make sure you can repay the loan to avoid losing your collateral.

Some lenders may also consider alternative factors when evaluating loan applications. For example, if you have a co-signer with a stable income and good credit, it could increase your chances of getting approved for a loan. A co-signer is someone who agrees to be responsible for repaying the loan if the borrower defaults. However, keep in mind that if you fail to make payments, it could negatively impact the credit score of both you and your co-signer.

Another option to consider is a payday loan, also known as a cash advance loan. Payday loans are short-term, high-interest loans that are typically repaid on your next payday. They usually don't require a credit check, making them more accessible for individuals with bad credit. However, payday loans come with extremely high interest rates and fees, and it's important to understand the terms and conditions before committing to one. They should be used as a last resort and with caution.

It's also worth exploring government assistance programs and local resources. Depending on your location and circumstances, there may be programs that provide emergency financial assistance to unemployed individuals or those with low income. These programs could include grants, subsidies, or temporary financial aid that can help you cover expenses in the short term.

In addition to these options, it's essential to be proactive in improving your credit score and financial situation in the long term. This can include managing your expenses, paying bills on time, reducing debts, and building a savings fund. Taking steps to rebuild your credit can increase your chances of being approved for loans in the future and improve your overall financial health.

When applying for unemployed quick cash loans while unemployed and with bad credit, it's crucial to be cautious and do thorough research. Scams and predatory lending practices are prevalent, and it's important to be vigilant and avoid falling into financial traps. Be sure to read and understand the terms and conditions of any loan offer, including the interest rates, fees, and repayment terms. If something seems too good to be true, it's best to be cautious and seek advice from a financial professional if needed.

In conclusion, while it can be challenging to obtain quick cash loans when unemployed and with bad credit, there are potential options available. Researching and exploring alternative lending options, considering secured loans, using a co-signer, or exploring government assistance programs can be viable solutions. However, it's essential to be cautious, understand the risks involved, and take steps to improve your credit

Eddie is constantly bouncing between jobs and rage quitting every 6 months on average. Steve, however, somehow gets lucky with a job in computer sales. With the industry in a booming rise, he makes a pretty decent income to support them both whenever Eddie's out of a job. Best part is, even though his charming voice and smile certainly help make sales, he doesn't feel like he's one of those scammers pushing all kinds of crap people don't need. Computers are objectively useful.

This goes on until their mid 30s and Steve saves up enough to open his own small tech store. He very hesitantly starts involving his recently unemployed (again) boyfriend in some mundane tasks (upon Eddie's own initiative saying he wants to help) and quickly learns that all of Eddie's previous bosses were morons. Eddie's meticulous and a quick learner with every single task. All he needs is not to have a boss who's a total jackass to him, and a bit of freedom to just... be himself.

Eddie does everything with mild enthusiasm; mild, because it's still work, ugh; enthusiasm, because it's his BOYFRIEND finally being free to do his own thing instead of working for The Man, woohoo, go Stevie! Eddie doesn't need to wear a stupid uniform or put his hair up, can play music in his headphones doing inventory, answers the phones in his special flirty manner, and Steve doesn't have a problem with any of that. He actually listens to Eddie's bitching and recognizes the helpful suggestions to improve things in the middle of all that, instead of telling him to shut up and do his damn job.

Working together can often be the perfect storm to ruin a relationship, but despite becoming Eddie's de-facto boss, Steve never treats him differently. It's never orders, always "Eddie can you [do this and that]?". It's soft smiles and a quiet "thanks, babe", and if no one's around, a kiss on Eddie's cheek when he gets something done. It's a calm explanation instead of yelling if he messes up.

Steve hands Eddie a handful of cash at the end of each week, despite Eddie's comments that it's a bit ridiculous to pay him at all, since he'd been practically living out of Steve's pocket for months at a time, and Steve has been single-handedly paying the rent for their joint apartment. Steve insists though, and Eddie has to admit that it's nice to always have cash in his pocket now.

Eddie learns more and more of everything that's needed to run the store, to the point that he spends a week handling everything alone when Steve's sick with the flu, but it's still a shock when several months later Steve shows him the paperwork in which he writes Eddie in as full partner. Eddie tries to protest, but Steve won't have it; he says he never could have survived all these months of start-up chaos without Eddie, and he fully deserves this. He's been giving Eddie half the store profits for months anyway, time to just make it official.

HIII i’m so sorry this took me so long i just didn’t wanna be unemployed after i’m done with my series so i decided to keep this in the drafts for a while 😞 i hope you’ll like this!

PAIRING sung hanbin x gn!reader

GENRE fluff, sfw

MASTERLIST

hanbin is a responsible bf, so you can definitely let loose when you’re around him!

he will always makes you feel safe

when you go out on dates with him, he would always silently take your handbag off of your shoulder and carry them himself 😞

his nicknames for you are usually the common ones, baby, my baby, angel, and i think he’d most commonly use 내 사랑 (nae sarang/my love) because it’s so endearing to give your s/o a nickname in your own mother tongue am i right

but he prefers calling you by your name, bc he thinks your name is already pretty

constantly complimenting you

you get your work done and he’s like “good job baby” and then he’d kiss your cheek

you finish mopping the floors and he’s like “you worked so hard today my love, thank you”

the type of boyfriend that will give you legitimate answers to your “would you still love me if i was a worm?” questions

one time you asked him what he would do if you turned into a snail one day

and he told you he’d have to build you nice house where you would be comfortable living in

drives your around ALL the time

he would freak out if you offered him gas money because he really doesn’t mind spending his time, energy, and money with you :(

if you gave him a $10 cash he would applepay you $15

i think hanbin is a great cook, so eating out is very rare for you both because he’s always cooking up a meal for the both of you

if you don’t like a certain taste (sour, salty, sweet, etc) he’d make sure to alter the recipe a little so you’d both be able to enjoy the meal together

hanbin would be cutting up some vegetables, and then you’d come up to him and ask for a kiss, and he would gladly give you a quick kiss before resuming with the meal prep

conflicts with him rarely ever happens

he’s so good at communicating, and he’s just so gentle there’s really nothing to be mad about with him

he trusts you, and he feels secure in the relationship so he never really asks you about your whereabouts. you’re free to hangout with anyone!

all of your friends loves hanbin. he treats you so well, and he’s so polite and can mix around with them, so he’s practically in your friend group too

when you DO get into fights with hanbin, the fight never lasts longer than 2 days. he either apologises first if he realised that he’s in the wrong, or he’ll talk to you and explain why he felt like he was wronged

plus, even when the two of you are fighting, he’d still cook you a good dinner, and you’d still help him clean up all the things he used to make the meal 😭

also on nights where you both had heated arguments, if the situation was okay, he would still wrap his arms around you while you sleep

hanbin never go all out for anniversaries though

rather than fancy dinner date or a big gesture to show his love, it’s more domestic and meaningful

hanbin prefers celebrating your anniversaries together with things like giving you a photobook of all the moments that you’ve spent together

of course he’d buy you a gift too, but his main idea of anniversaries are more domestic

one time he rearranged your house and made a candlelight dinner all by himself for your anniversary, candles, silk tablecloth, fancy steak, he did that all by himself

whenever you get sick, he’d feel bad leaving you alone while he goes to work but duty calls!!!

he would make you text him and update him every 3 hours so that he knows you’re eating well and taking your medicines on time

when HE’S sick he tells you not to worry about him and then he would get flustered when he finds out that you cooked him some healthy soupy foods for him to eat

he thinks you’re so cute when you’re worried over him getting a stupid little cold

when he gets better he would give you so many kisses and cooing at how cute you were when you were taking care of him

honestly he’s always kissing you somewhere, or you’re always kissing him somewhere, it doesn’t matter. he loves kisses

when you say something funny he would laugh and then bring your hand to his lips for no reason?? when you ask him why he’s just like “you’re so funny i just had to kiss you”

when you’re showing him the new top you just bought and then he would just pull you in to kiss the top of your head bc why not

when you kiss him first his ears will go red

he would even be like “why’d you do that”

when you say you just wanted to kiss him he’d giggle and would call you adorable

“my partner is so adorable today, i wonder what’s got into them?”

Do you have any headcanons about the relationship between Michigan and Iguazu?

BOY DO I!!!!

So, their relationship is actually pretty complicated, even though superficially it seems like a typical "boss trying to whip a slacker into shape". Well, they're that too, but:

Iguazu has very mixed feelings re: Michigan, because on the one hand he broke his goddamn face and then press-ganged him into Redgun service, but on the other hand, the Redguns granted him opportunities he never would've had on earth, and he's actually treated considerably better than he had been on earth too.

See, on earth, Iguazu was born into the working class, but he didn't want to live his life in the production factories or fabrication foundaries, so he was - gasp - unemployed and joined one of the many gangs that roamed the slums. Smuggling, robbery, illegal gambling, anything that could get him ahead in life, anything that could make him that little bit richer, Iguazu went for it. His lifelong dream was to get enough scratch to buy a bronze citizenship and move into one of the Rejuvenated cities, but he needed lots of money for that.

Lots and lots and lots of money.

Gambling was his favourite way of trying to get that money, because in his eyes it was a 'get rich quick and don't even get shot at' method. He did petty crime to get the fistful of cash needed to throw down a bet - and then lose it all lmao it was an endless cycle. In fact, it was how he got augmented in the first place, as he put down a huuuuuuuuge bet he just couldn't cover, and when he lost it, he realised not even selling a kidney or liver would cover the debt.

Fortunately, he managed to make a deal with some shady augmentation surgeon looking for 'test subjects' for some highly experimental """"Gen Four""""" augmentations, and he took a chance: if he survived the surgery and let the surgeon get whatever data he wanted from it, the surgeon will pay off his debt. If he didn't survive the surgery well, he'll be dead. If he couldn't pay back that debt though, he was dead anyways, so Iguazu took the chance and actually won!

So, an augmented human that doesn't have any debt nor ties to corporations is pretty valuable, even if they don't have an AC to pilot. With his new second chance, Iguazu shunned gambling for good and- HAH no. He went back to his previous life of petty crime and excessie gambling, except now he was a little cockier. Anyway, he climbed the ranks a little in the gang he was in (where he had consistently stayed, not quite at the bottom, but like, bottom third, maybe), and got tangled up in a scheme to get some seriously big cash.

tl;dr Iguazu tried to rob the Hero of Jupiter of all people.

Didn't work, obviously. His gang got busted halfway through the job and Iguazu got left behind to take the fall. Michigan basically beat him half senseless, but didn't kill him (even though he could've done it and the law would've been like "oh, unemployed working class, yeah, it wouldn't count as murder :)" since only citizens are protected (working class aren't "citizens" in apv...)). Instead, after rearranging Iguazu's face and breaking a few bones, Michigan dragged him to the hospital and paid his medical bill.

Now. Onto where the complicated feelings come in.

Life on earth was a constant struggle, and Iguazu was aware that he wasn't at the bottom of the social ladder so much as even the worms tilling the soil were considered more productive members of society than him. None of his schemes or gambling was getting him the money he wanted, and after attempting to rob the Hero of Jupiter, the Peacekeepers weren't going to arrest him, they'd just vanish him completely, which was scarier.

But that didn't happen. Instead Michigan offered him a deal: if Iguazu served ten years in the Redguns as one of his AC squad commanders, then Michigan will personally sponsor him a silver earth citizenship and give him a lump sum of COAM to start him off for his new life.... but if Iguazu turned him down, then Michigan was going to leave him to the mercy of the Peacekeepers, which was essentially a death sentence.

Obviously, Iguazu was going to take the deal, no matter how suspicious as fuck it sounded.

Really, Iguazu was half-expecting Michigan to make him his indentured slave. But instead he found that, no, he was legitimately recruited as an AC pilot. Was trained to be an AC pilot. Michigan even forced him to train in other things too - marketable skills he called them, no matter how much Iguazu grouched and complained about them being boring or pointless. Michigan pushed him to do better, didn't take any of Iguazu's shit, and if Iguazu pushed back too hard, promptly smacked him back into his place and reminded him of their deal.

It really confused Iguazu more than anything? Like, he hated Michigan on principle, and he hated how he was in control of his life and strongarmed him into a group he didn't even care about, but at the same time he felt some weird, bitter and begrudging gratitude and respect - which made him hate Michigan even more because he can't even just hate the guy without it being complicated!! Michigan was just some rich famous guy who decided to make Iguazu his charity case, and he really despised him for it.

But he was also aware that life in the Redguns was considerably better than life on earth had been to him. He'd paid a generous salary. He sleeps in a warm, clean bed (even when sent to Rubicon, their barracks had a functional cot). He got to eat every day and didn't have to worry about tomorrow. He met people he could tolerate and weren't always thinking about how to fuck him over (Volta). Iguazu really does have a lot of complicated feelings over Michigan and what he's done for him, but he settles for resentment and bitter anger because those emotions he knows best. He knows what to do with those...

Michigan, meanwhile?

Really, he was thinking about Walter when it came to Iguazu. Saw this gutsy, angry, refused to stay beaten down "sewer rat", and just couldn't help but glimpse Walter in there. Like, yeah, Walter was never that mouthy, was colder, more composed and poised, but damn, that crazy, raw stubbornness that was just shy of the fierceness of a cornered animal was all Walter.

As well, his experiences with Walter, and his own perspective on both sides of the social ladder - and how the working class are treated - had Michigan feeling some kind of way. He just decided to go for it, see what happened. Iguazu had the guts to try and rob him and, when caught, squared up to him like an absolute lunatic. Michigan liked that kind of gutsy lunacy. Combined with his sort of Walter reminders, he decided to just... offer a helping hand.

Walter sure as hell never had one of those. Walter did everything himself, horded that bitter resentment until it poisoned him right down to the bone marrow, and now he's god knows where doing who knows what. So... yeah, it's complicated on Michigan's side too.

They're both so emotionally constipated, though. Michigan sure as hell explained nothing, Iguazu stewed at what he perceived to be unwanted pity and charity, and everyone else just kinda watched this from the sidelines like hm. intersting. well anyway-

oh man i did not mean to ramble that much but. yeah!!!! yeah... my michigan and iguazu headcanons...

Chuuya x Female Reader Angst

Summary: part 2 to this. Semi request, where the reader turns to alcohol and cigarettes following Dazai's departure.

Warnings: alcohol, smoking, talks about death and addiction, kinda mean Dazai but it's cos he cares

WC: 1.7K

Main Masterlist

Two years. It's been two years since you last saw Chuuya. Two years, seven months, three weeks and five days to be exact. Not like you were keeping track or anything.

Every day had been the same for the past two years. Being in the mafia gave you quite a large sum of money, enough to sustain your unemployed self for two years.

For those two years, all you did was sleep during the day, wake up, have an evening smoke and spend the rest of the night at the bar, where you drank away all the pain. 

The smoke choked your lungs and the alcohol numbed everything, but you no longer cared for your wellbeing. After Osamu left, all that remained were feelings of worthlessness.

And soon after his departure you were living your life awaiting your death, so you turned to the same bad habit that destroyed your family to destroy yourself faster.

It was a pitiful state you were in. Chuuya had tried to help. Chuuya watched as one cigarette turned to one pack. Chuuya watched as one glass turned into one bottle. Chuuya was only concerned for you. Chuuya was always there for you. But, just like your mother and brother, you left.

You left the last person who cared about you.

Through your drunken eyes, he was meddling, restricting you from the smoke and alcohol which had comforted you like old friends, so you ran away, refusing any help and only worsened.

But, your money was running out, and that meant you'd have to face the pain you struggled to repress. Which led you back to your house where you knew you had left money.

You groaned as you lay around the broken glass. The sound of your door opening had you scrambling to your room. You gently closed the door to your room as your front door swung open.

With tentative steps, you made your way to your closet where you'd find your spare cash. You sighed as you stepped in and shut the door.

"Hi,"

You screamed and fought to get out of the closet. You landed on your behind with a thud as your room door swung open to reveal Chuuya brandishing a kitchen knife.

"Hi," You said with an awkward smile.

Chuuya shouted incomprehensibly. You lay down on the floor as the figure from within the closet stepped out. Chuuya flung the knife, but the figure dodged.

"Please just make it quick,"

"It seems you've taken after me my dear sister," He chuckled.

Your head shot up.

"You!"

With shaky legs, you stood up, rolled back your shoulder and punched Osamu across the jaw. 

"Can't say I didn't deserve that,"

"You deserve a whole lot more," You fumed.

Osamu rubbed his jaw slowly as Chuuya gently gripped your arm. You turned to him with tears in your eyes and hugged him tightly. Chuuya rubbed circles into your back as you sobbed into his shoulder.

"I've missed you," He whispered into your hair.

"For an ex mafia member who's been a slave to alcohol and cigarettes for two years, you still punch hard,"

"What's with the get up?" Chuuya asked.

"Why don't we sit down and we can ask as many questions as we want?" Osamu suggested.

You broke away from Chuuya and walked to the bathroom, where you showered for the first time in a long time. All the dust, dried tear stains and the scent of smoke and alcohol washed away with the water, down into the drain, separating from you. You put on clean clothes and made your way to your kitchen.

"Thought you ran away again," Osamu said dryly.

You frowned but made no comment and simply sat at the table.

"You look better," Chuuya said after several minutes of tense silence.

"Don't lie Chuuya. Look at her eye bags, those dead eyes, the dull skin and hair. She looks absolutely terrible,"

"Must you berate me so? It's been several years since I last saw you," You said quietly. 

"Dazai, you must admit that she looks much better after her time in the bathroom than when we first saw her today,"

"That may be true, but that doesn't change the fact that she broke into her own house after two years of absence, likely in search of money to further fuel her addiction. Being nice to her won't help her,"

You flinched at his harsh tone.

"I want to help her more than anyone, but that doesn't mean we should be so harsh. She's clearly fragile right now. She doesn't need you to lecture her. We can do that after, but for now, we should just catch up,"

"He's right Chuuya, but can we please talk about it later? This is the last time I'll run away from my problems. I promise,"

"Fine. To answer your question Chuuya, I've joined the side that saves people. I'm in the armed detective agency,"

"Why the change of heart?"

"Because Y/N, I'm doing something that makes me feel even better than alcohol and cigarettes,"

"Don't you dare act like you're any better than me,"

"Oh but I am,"

"You say you've joined the side that saves lives yet your cruel nature still remains,"

Chuuya cleared his throat loudly.

"You two need to stop bickering like children,"

That shut the both of you up. Osamu scoffed and stood up to grab a glass of water.

"What are you doing in my sister's house Chuuya?"

"I've been keeping it clean for when she eventually returns," He said quietly.

Another scoff from Osamu. He shook his head.

"And she left you,"

You hung your head in shame.

"You didn't have to do that Chuuya. What if I didn't come back?"

"I did it because I care about you. I cared about you then, and I still care about you now. And I guess we're all fools to love,"

"Gross,"

Dazai took a seat again.

"This is my last mean comment. Y/N Dazai. You idiot. I gave you one last instruction, a very simple one. Stay with Chuuya. And what do you go and do? You leave him. Why?"

Chuuya shot Osamu a harsh glare as you blinked rapidly to keep your tears from falling.

"I was scared. Mum left us all alone, then you left me and all I had was Chuuya. I enjoyed being around him, I loved him so much, but every day I had this constant fear gnawing at me. I was scared that like everyone else, he'd walk away and I'd have no one. The thought that I wasn’t good enough to get you to stay haunted me. So I started smoking to 'take off the edge', then I started drinking to numb the pain,"

You paused momentarily to take in a shaky breath. Chuuya cupped your hands in his and pressed light kisses onto your fingers.

"After you left, I just felt like I was a terrible sister. I felt like I wasn't enough. When you left, it hurt me. It hurt me so much that I started drinking and smoking just like you and mum to bring me comfort the way I saw it gave you comfort. In a way, I guess it was my way of being close to you again,"

Osamu simply stared intently at you. Thinking. Not saying a word. You inhaled.

"And Chuuya was there through it all. He watched me, he tried stopping me. And I left him because I thought I needed the alcohol and cigarettes to continue living without pain. I thought he wanted me to suffer. Which I knew deep down, was never true. Perhaps I was just making an excuse for the fact that I was too scared he'd walk out of my life, so I left before he could," 

You couldn't utter a single word more, before you buried your face in your hands and sobbed uncontrollably. Osamu, surprisingly, stayed quiet and even offered you tissues and water while Chuuya rubbed circles into your shoulders.

"Perhaps I was too harsh on you without hearing your side first," Dazai mused once your sobs started waning.

You looked at him and gasped lightly. This was your first proper look at your brother in years. How different he looked. His once soulless eyes held a bit of life in them. His skin was a much healthier colour than the previous ashy tone. Everything about Osamu seemed much more alive.

You on the other hand, probably became the exact opposite of the current Osamu, becoming the version of him before he left you, just like he said.

"I apologise for my selfishness. You getting hurt by my departure was unintentional. I'm sorry,"

"I'm glad you're back. Even if your words were harsh, they were a wake up call,"

Osamu approached you tentatively and slowly wrapped his arms around your frame, which started shaking as you began crying again. It was good to have your brother back. Your grip on Chuuya's hand tightened once Osamu let you go.

"I have a job now, so I can't be here with you all the time, but I'll still try my best to drop by whenever so that I can help you. So please, follow this instruction. Stay with Chuuya,"

And just like four years ago, Osamu left you alone with Chuuya, but this time, you weren't sad to see him go, if anything, you were hopeful for your next meeting, determined to get better by then.

"I don't think I ever apologised to you,"

"There's no need to,"

"Stop that. You deserve an apology and even more for the way I acted. Chuuya Nakahara, I sincerely apologise for doubting you, I'm sorry for leaving abruptly just like my brother and I'm sorry that I've never really thanked you for your unwavering support even through this storm we've been through,"

"I will admit, I also felt like I wasn't enough when you left and I did turn to alcohol on occasion, so I now know how you felt, but I got better. So, you will as well. We'll start by taking small steps. Together,"

You wrapped your arms around Chuuya and nestled into his chest.

"Together," You whispered.

A/N: Merry Christmas to those who celebrate! I guess this is my lateish gift for you guys. I had a lot of fun writing it :))

( ANA DE ARMAS . CISFEMALE . SHE/HER ) - the chicago resident , ( LUISA ‘LUZ’ ACERO ) , was heard blaring ( IGUAL QUE UN ÁNGEL / KALI UCHIS ) this morning . the ( THIRTY-TWO ) year old is ( UNEMPLOYED ) in the city & has lived the ( EAST ) tower for ( ONE YEAR ) . since being here , they have been told to be ( - SARCASTIC ) , but also ( + FLIRTY ) , i guess we’ll find out soon !

Luisa had no illusions about her life. Born in a small home in Santa Clara, her father was a dishwasher and her mother was a maid both at the same swanky hotel for tourists, both hardworking and trying their best, trying to make something of themselves as best they could. Luz realized at a young age though that, no matter how hard they worked, it never really mattered. Nothing they owned was really theirs. Sure they had a place to live, had food, had possessions, but…at the end of the day, all that could be taken away by the snap of fingers if the hotel owner (or some snooty guest) wanted to cause problems. They lived their life tiptoeing by.

Luz wanted more than that for herself. She wanted more than cooking and cleaning and being at someone else's beck and call. So when she found ways to do that...she jumped at it, morals be damned.

Luisa was barely sixteen the first time she not only slept with someone, but was paid for it too. Her virginity for enough money to buy extra food for them for a week? Easy deal. And then she kept at it, covertly sleeping with men (and women on occasion) in exchange for food and money. She soon caught the attention of higher up hotel guests too, and while they could use her as they wanted for a pretty penny, she started coercing them into giving her more. Eventually, along with food and money, she could sometimes get gifts. Clothes and jewelry, makeup. Anything she could want until she was old enough to have an actual job. She doubled down on her beliefs then. She didn’t want to be a maid. Or a waitress. Or anything like that. She was good at sleeping with people…good at being a good time. So she ran with it, all covertly under her parents' nose.

For years it went on like that, with Luz earning enough money from her clientele that she not only got her parents a better place to live, but she got them out of their jobs altogether. And when she was twenty-five, she earned a best gift of all: a way off the island. The US had always been the dream after all, a goal that never quite seemed attainable--until now.

Her mother had a cousin in Miami that took them in once they arrived, and with her parents squared away, Luz decided to do life on her own now, heading north to New York (she'd had a few hotel guests always inviting her to the city after all, promising her more money and jewels if she ever took them up on it). And for years, Luz did just that, happily hanging off the arm of some well-off man, wearing pretty dresses and expensive jewels in exchange for, well, not a whole lot of effort on her part. Finally last year though, she decided a change of scenery was in order and headed off to Chicago, an old client telling her she'd have fun there- which she definitely has. And while she still has some clients here and there looking for more of the high end escort type, she's found an equally-fun way of getting cash quick in ways of being a cam girl. Her Onlyfans is not only premium content, but an easy way to connect with clients old and new--all from the comforts of her bedroom.

And sure Luz would one day like to actually have someone want her for her and not just her body, she'd like to maybe even one day get a real job, but until then, she could at least make sure she was financially secured so she'd never, ever, have to struggle in the ways her parents did.

Brothers In Need Once More

Apparently both of my older brothers are struggling currently. Had I known sooner, I would have put up a post much sooner. Sadly, both brothers have a tendency to suffer in silence–abusive upbringings destroy hope for help. I decided to write up a quick post with both of their information so anyone who is feeling generous has options to help. I’m currently working and sending them money as much as I can. However, I’m in a significant amount of debt myself and I can’t assure them and their children a good holiday without aid.

As usual when I post such situations, I’m open to providing creative returns such as fanart, fanfiction, and so on. Please direct message me here or email me at puff22_2001@yahoo.com if you’re interested. I like to think that my work is decent and I love to create for others.

Zack:

My brother Zack has been struggling for the last several years. He works 50-to-70-hour weeks at Walmart on a permanently-dislocated ankle and with a host of other chronic health problems. He’s currently on the verge of homelessness again and has very little in the way of financial support. His 8-year-old daughter is the sweetest little girl who loves coloring and Frozen. Zack is an amazing person–generous, kind, and wise. He’s one of my favorite fellow members of the LGBT community and he deserves some stability for once.

Chuck:

My brother Chuck is currently unemployed due to the winter season. Chuck is an independent contractor and he works so hard, even though his jobs keep falling through. As well, Chuck has two beautiful kids: a 16-year-old and a 11-year-old. Chuck is a great person--hardworking, kind, and moral. He’s another one of my favorite members of the LGBT community and all that he wants for his fortieth birthday tomorrow is for his kids to have a good holiday.

If you'd rather send money to me, my paypal is right here. If I do get any donations, I'll be splitting them three ways: one equal third to each brother now, and one equal third split in equal halves to give them when they visit at the end of December as a surprise.

I truly appreciate any donations, reblogs, or even just supportive thoughts and vibes! I’m trying my best to help my family with my limited resources and Tumblr has been so kind throughout the years. I love you folks so much and I can’t ever thank you enough.

Hey y'all! My friend @raetherose has been really going through it lately and could use a little extra support. I offered to make a quick post on her behalf, and without getting too deep into personal details, she really needs to try and raise at least £300 by the 6th of September to avoid the worst case scenario. If you could help Rae by sending a some cash her way or spreading this post around, it would mean a lot to me! 💚 Thank you so much 💚

We need your Help

I'm almost shocked on how there's been very little national coverage on what we went through yesterday (1.24.23) here in Houston.

So, remember how I said we don't get snow? Yeah, um, we also don't get tornadoes.

Like

EVER.

Even less so than snow, actually, and we got hit with a EF2 yesterday that pummeled through the city and left hundreds homeless in this apartment complex alone.

I typically wouldn't ever ask for help, but my dad got hit with a double whammy yesterday; while he was out helping get his elderly upstairs neighbor out of her unit before it collapsed on her, someone walked into his unit and managed to swipe half of his savings he had taken out of the safe just moments before the funnel hit.

Everyone lost their homes yesterday. My dad almost wasn't able to get his cat out because they didn't want to let him back in, and the cat was one of three things he managed to get out before they rushed him. He couldn't even get any clothes, barely managing to get his groceries that hadn't spoiled yet and whatever tech he had to fix for his business to make quick cash. My little brother can't even go back to school because the roof lifted off and the windows blew out while he was inside hunkered down across the street.

My father's raised me to be humble, but I know when you've been beaten down to not be afraid of raising a hand and I gotta admit, this man is keeping his hands down.

Anything at the moment would help, please, I was already struggling with being unemployed and fostering six cats, and now I'm housing my father and younger brother with nothing to their names. I think I figured out how to enable tipping, but I also have Cashapp, Venmo, and PayPal to make it easier, as well as a Zelle QR.

Even if there isn't much to spare, at least spreading word of what we went through yesterday would be helpful in getting aid to those even worse off.

What Unemployment Schemes Are For And How They Do It

I’ve posted about the social welfare system in Ireland many times before, and the labryinthine, Kafkaesque system for activating unemployed people. 

There are many sub-organisations and agencies which are all basically the Department of Social Protection (DSP) but they pretend like they’re separate. 

None of these schemes are designed to get people back to work. Any permanent jobs arising out of these schemes have happened as a side-effect.

What are they for?

1. They are designed to get people off the live register so the government can report artificially suppressed unemployment figures.

The first time I went through Tús, I never heard back from them, possibly because of my skill set. The second time I went through Tús, they found a very suitable thing for me to do. I was transcribing archives in my local Church of Ireland church. You can see all my posts about it here, but the quick version is that it was fun and interesting and I met lots of interesting people. 

What it didn’t do was provide any avenue whatsoever for long-term work, or advance my particular career trajectory in any way. In fact, I had to put everything on hold - my writing, my relationships with editors and publishers etc. - for a year until this thing was finished. 

However, because I was being paid from Tús, I was taken off the live unemployment register and was technically “employed”. Tús is wholly funded by the government. 

I am currently in the third round of Tús. Again, I have been informed that there are no positions available for me. 

2. They are designed so the government can point to these schemes and say "look we are doing something about unemployment". 

The first time I went through a year of Turas Nua, it was very clear both to me and the legion of Turas Nua people that they had no access to any opportunities involving my skill set. The second time I was referred to Turas Nua, I started to explain this. Literally in the middle of my sentence, the DSP person interrupted me with, “If you don’t do this, your payments will be stopped.”

So I did a second year, just as much a waste of everyone’s time as the first year. I am currently in the third round of Turas Nua. Again, I have been informed (quite reasonably) that there is nothing they can do for me.

It's literally a game of "let's show that we’re doing something with Barry". 

3. They are designed to harass and shame unemployed people as much as possible.

Certain right-wing elements regard people like me as sub-human scum because we don’t have “proper” jobs and we claim welfare from the state. “Why do I pay taxes while these pigs lie in their own filth?” Unemployment is for these people a kind of moral failing which must be punished.

During the COVID-19 lockdown, all social welfare payments were made directly into the accounts of recipients. Before, it was necessary to collect the cash physically at a post office. This year, the payments have been returned to the post offices. The offiicial reason given was to give the post offices something to do. It sounds mad, but I challenge anyone to read that press statement and find an alternative interpretation of what the minister said. 

The real reason, of course, is that anything that makes the lives of unemployed people easier must be opposed, as it encourages people to be lazy. Anything that makes their lives more complicated and annoying must be supported, as it incentivises them to find work.

So? Who cares so long as they get jobs?

One of the very worst ways to motivate unemployed people is to threaten them in every single communication. When you threaten someone, you create an adversarial dynamic. You are incentivising unemployed people to do the minimum necessary to avoid having the only access to food and rent revoked. Every new threat is counterproductively demotivating people to do anything at all. 

What should be done?

So if these schemes don’t get people back to work (and they’re not even supposed to), what should be done? 

The best evidence currently available indicates that the optimal way to get people back to work is to offer supports to anyone who wants them and then leave them alone. This only applies if you are genuinely interested in getting people back to work. If you’re more interested in performative humiliation, then please feel free to engage in all of the above. 

DISCLAIMER: Don’t feel bad for me. This is not about me in particular. This is about the unemployment activation machine in Ireland. I’m fine. I live with my father who has assured me that no matter what happens, he will not let me starve. Also he charges me no rent. So I’m fine. There are people who do not have my father but who still have to deal with this system.
