My family needs help relocating to a safer home
Hey guys, I need your help. My family has been going through severe trouble with constant burglaries & attempted kidnapping. We need help with relocating them and moving out as soon as possible to make sure my sister & mom are safe.
They been dealing with since October of 2022, with breaking in and stealing food and personal belongings, ranging from tech and clothes, but recently has become more severe straight up steeling food, personal information, breaking security systems, and eventually showing up my sister's school with attempting to kidnap her.
We've done all we could at this point to get the help we need and protect ourselves, but with how low their funds are, we had to set up a Gofundme for support to get them out as soon as possible.
Any amount of donations would be incredibly grateful, but if you can't, please share this around as much as possible. Thank you.

Rising Star
Welcome friends, I hope you are all well. I hope you are still enjoying the story and welcome you to let me know what you are thinking about how it’s working so far. Also, I hope that you’ll share this story with those you think will enjoy it. Last week we all voted for what came next, and to my surprise we came to:
3. Maybe she could go over a few of the books, just to start.
Time to see what knowledge lays inside those bound pages.
After storing the provisions in the room they’d been granted, Star decided to tend to Edmund for Luna. Guiding the horse to the inn’s attached stables, she found a pair of young boys wearing leathers with the inn’s symbol waiting for her. They hopped to, and she could see the relation to the bartender in their faces.
“We’ll take care of your horse ma’am, and your cart can be stored in the next stall with a lock if you want,” the elder of the two offered while the younger tentatively reached for the reins. “It’s all a part of the rooms here.”
“Thank you, his name is Edmund, and if the bard in the square asks, she’s his owner and sharing the room with me,” she explained while handing over the reins and going to help the other brother wheel the cart into the stall.
While the brothers gave the horse a thorough brush down and clean up, she felt the old temptation growing inside of her. Surely just a few wouldn’t hurt to peek at, get some preliminary work done.
It was still hours before sunset, she could maybe check through two or three of them. Looking at the boys tending Edmund, she decided that she’d been through enough and treating herself to a glass of wine and reading some research sounded just the thing to reward herself. There was that well worn tome, that one that had a dozen or so bookmarks, and maybe she could get through that one with the dark leather cover as well.
Lifting the cover on the cart, she pulled out the three books she’d thought of. Checking to ensure that the cart was covered again, she hugged the three thick books to her chest and left the stall, taking the key from the elder son who locked the gate behind her. Heading through the bar, she waved to the barkeep who nodded in response, tending to a few patrons that were in for an early nip.
Not that she could blame them, but she figured she’d wait until after supper for her wine. Instead, she went up the stairs and found the warm room waiting for her. Settling in on the comfortable bed with her back against the wall, she picked the first book to read. It was the bookmarked one, since that was probably heavily referenced.
What she found was… oh… Oh this would be useful in another way. This was the wizard’s spell creation journal. Each bookmark a new spell that the wizard had been working on.
She was tempted to not share this with the university until she restored magic and copied over every detail she could. It was a bit of a selfish thought, and she really shouldn’t entertain it, but seeing that one on improvements to the psionic servant spell was enough to flare up her greedy side. Oh, so much power awaiting her victory.
Going over a few of the notes that she would be copying later, she sighed as she realized it would have to wait until she could get the paper and ink supplies of the school in Castledale. Next came the well worn book and…
Oh… well…
That would be some private reading material for later… Didn’t know that the old man was into this type of reading, but she couldn’t fault him. Yes, deep and intense study with a gla- no a bottle of wine and some privacy would very much be in order for this
Mmm yes, she would find this very edifying.
That just left the dark leather bound book. It was very old judging by the binding and the state of the paper inside, however it looked like it was handled with care and respect. Slowly and carefully opening the cover, she found a wall of promising text, but the language was not one she had studied properly in a while. It would take time to translate it, but she could pick out a few details… should she focus on this one, or get another from the stables?

PLEASE HELP ME AND MY FAMILY. (URGENT)
Me and my family have been struggling financially for a very, very long time now. For as long as I’ve lived, I can’t remember a single time where we’ve had enough money to live comfortably for even a moment. A few months ago, our kitchen floor became warped, and what we initially thought was a flood under our kitchen floor became so, so much worse. We were told that there is asbestos in our kitchen. For the past two months, we’ve been living in a cramped, miserable hotel while a bunch of strangers go in and out of our home to work PAINSTAKINGLY SLOW on gutting and rebuilding our entire kitchen. I am the oldest child of 3 younger brothers. My Mom, who is insanely smart and strong-willed, has been doing everything she can possibly do in order to make sure we have enough money for food. My Dad works in the oil fields, meaning he is unavailable for months at a time, leaving just me and my Mom to take care of all of the kids.
To sum things up, we are experiencing a living hell. I graduated just before this nightmare happened. I had plans to get a job, start earning money and to generally become more self-sufficient overall, and I have done none of that because of all this bullshit. It has taken an extreme toll on my mental health to the point where I am scared of my own thoughts and feelings. I’m done sugar coating things. If you are reading this and you can donate anything at all, even if it’s just a couple dollars, do it. We want our life back. We want our home back.
Please. Save us from our suffering.

I got some really scary news today from my parents.

They aren't sure what happened with my Mister at the ER. All tests came back normal. He started feeling better with some rest and the meds they gave him. Of course he did 🙄. They brought his blood sugar down to normal from obscene. They have him off work the next two days. We picked up Firehouse for dinner and are now trying to find something to watch. Then it's to bed. At least for a Malamute who is upset that Mommy left her with the cats.
Now, to really play catch up on all things Pedro...

It's with a heavy heart that we ask for your support again. My family needs help moving again. If you've kept up or remember their situation from a few months ago, they originally had to move out due to constant break-ins, car damages, and even stalking. It was so constant, it was draining their funds and resources that it effectively impossible to save money or even work without getting broken into. The police were barely any help at all and have not done anything to solve the issues, which is why they needed help to move out of the area and into a safer one.
Fast forward to now, and the problems persist. Crime has been so bad in these areas, they've had to move 3 more times in the span of 6 months. They can't go a few days relaxing without having a different set of burglars take advantage of them the people around them. And despite currently living in a HOA neighborhood, they have done nothing to help my family or the other neighbors who have reported break-ins or car break-ins.
Worse yet, HOA has decided to evict my my mom and my sister for "violating" HOA policy for "picking up sticks and cleaning the area". There is a forest 10 feet from the back door, and stuff falls or floods easily when it rains. So it makes no sense from HOA when it's their literal mission statement to maintain a perstein looking neighborhood.
My mother is disabled and on the ticket to work program, which means she can only work so many hours and make so much. Not to mention my sister is still in school, so she can barely focus on that without being in constant fear.
Their best option at this point is to potentially move out of the state entirely. So please, if you can, any kind of donation would be incredibly grateful. And if you can't, please share this around as far and often as ya'll can. We're hoping this is the last time they'd have to move and don't have to worry about anything after this.
Your generosity and support genuinely means so much, however you show it. Thank you.

So fics and prompts will have to wait.

I usually don't like to post my personal stuff on my art accounts, but this is dire and need some help. Today at 5: 00 in the morning, my younger sister got into a car accident, and while physically she is fine, her car is totaled, and this has put a financial setback for her. I have pictures, but to put it bluntly, her car is decimated
Tumblr media
She has no transportation until she can get a new one with her savings, but on top of that, she has a lot of other fees such as Insurance, liability fees, Towing and payment for damages. in the meantime I'll be doing whatever I can to help her such as transportation or loans, and also sharing that she is accepting commissions in order to get some money saved to avoid going into debt. I wanted to share with you guys so that if you can share this with anyone or perhaps give her commissions a look, any thing helps and would appreciate all the support you can give her. She refuses to set up a GoFundMe because she does not want to take money without earning it, so if you can share this with others, it will help so much
Her Instagram is blazing.f0x
And she has a Twitter as well

Whatever little bit helps!

(this post ended up way longer than I'd planned. It's about mental and physical illness and family things.)
Yesterday my dad EMAILED my brother a picture of his truck in a ditch on the side of the road as the way of letting us know he'd been in a car accident. So Andrew forwarded me the email and we were both trying to call him but he wasn't answering. We were trying to decide how big of an overreaction it would be to just start calling hospitals, but the accident didn't look bad, but like... he wasn't answering his phone??
Except, my dad has also been rejecting my calls for a while because he feels like I've taken my mom's side in the divorce (because I won't listen to him vent about their relationship or divorce negotiations). So it wasn't clear if he wasn't answering because he was hurt, or if he was busy dealing with a tow truck and the logistics that come with a car accident, or if he just didn't want to talk to me. He doesn't seem to feel like my brother has abandoned him and he's accepted Andrew's calls more than mine, but he wasn't answering him, either. So we were panicking.
Eventually he called my brother to tell him he was fine, that the truck was being towed, and that was that. No more information.
But then he called me this morning. He was kind - it wasn't the awful, tense calls filled with accusations and vitriol where I have to repeat "I'm not going to talk about this" a half-dozen times. But he's not well. Like, "vomits in the house without warning but doesn't have the strength or energy to clean it up" unwell. Bed-bound, at least today. But when I said I was coming to help take care of him he vehemently refused the offer and cried that he didn't want me to see him like this.
He has a "friend" (girlfriend? friend from high school? how did she get roped into this I have no idea, since she lives like six hours from him) who comes to help him every so often, but she's not coming again for another almost two weeks.
I'm just at a loss. At what point do you say, "I know you don't want me to see you living in filth, but you can't live in filth, so I'm here and I'm going to clean you up and help you."
There's no way he'd let a home care nurse into the house. His delusions mix with reality and he can turn mean and nasty on a dime, so I also don't really want to put myself in that position. But I also love him and can't just let him exist in that state alone, or nearly alone.
As the older sister, I messaged my grandmother on facebook (that's the only way we communicate, and we rarely communicate at all) to let her know about the accident and his poor health. She's panicking wondering what to do, but like... you're his mom? I'm panicking wondering what to do, but it feels like I shouldn't have to be advising her. I don't want us to ambush him and show up, but I also couldn't let her just go on not knowing about this. But it turns out he was just there a week ago and seemed fine?? Which further adds to the confusion around what his condition is and how long it's been this bad.
Anyway, you can have a totally normal and healthy father for nearly thirty years (or be married to a normal and healthy man for 35 years) and then suddenly he's awful and mean and abusive and accusing you of poisoning him, and then suddenly he's sick, puking and shitting and can't clean himself up.
So that's my family tragedy right now. I got "comfort nigiri" yesterday and goodness knows I'm making Ken agree to "comfort pizza" tonight. I have my weekly write-in that I host so unfortunately I have to go out into the world and function.

Today - which is so very far from over 😥 - has been an awfully chaotic day of stress, bad news, stress, good news, stress, confusion, and stress. I believe these gingerbread cookies are a good illustration of today. I tried to "decorate" them during a work call while my phone kept pinging with stressful things. Can you tell my mind was... elsewhere?
