Cheap apartments in joliet il

Lol she wants to live like a queen in Costa Del Este Panama. This place is where multi millionaires live in Panama or people who own large businesses or surgeons. Possible retired or narcos. This lady is crazy I can see a 1200-1500 a month apartment which is nice. Panama is expensive I live here but I don’t think Jazmin will ever find a wealthy local. No wealthy want to put up with her issues and she also has 2/3 kids.
Geno is a creep and a weirdo but still feel bad for him. I’m sure he isn’t spending 3k a month in Michigan.

I live in an urban city, where crime is rapid (Chicago). Need some extra income while job searching and was going to try door dashing. I'll need to fork over a couple hundred for a new bike, but I can't seem to decide between a regular bike, electric bike or an escooter.
I'm terrified of the bike getting stolen, so I was just going to get a regular bike. That way if worst comes to worst, I'll only be out of a couple hundred, instead of over a thousand (ebike). I was thinking of an escooter, since they are light and I can roll them in and out restaurants, apartment buildings, etc. without locking them up on the street.
The problem with the escooter is that I'm worried about getting injured on it, since safety studies show they are more injury prone than bikes. I'm middle-aged and already have a mild herniated disk in my lower back and don't want to risk a fall. I had an old manual kick scooter years ago and wiped out twice on it, so I'm wary. I told my family about the possibility of getting an escooter and was jokingly told me to make sure my life insurance was "paid up."
My elderly father even chimed in and asked did I really want to risk getting hit by a car, and becoming crippled with all the crazy drivers in downtown Chicago (where I live) ? This made me even more paranoid door dashing all together!
Anyway, I'm just trying to get some advice on pros and cons of bikes vs escooter for delivery. And how you to protect bikes from theft, if I choose to get the later. Any thoughts appreciated!

hello, trying to shoot my shot again. after kinda having met two sugardaddies here on reddit, which ended after a really short time, i am again looking for someone new. look, you can't fool me. its not going to work, i know all your tricks and games and if you are here to waste my time don't try it.
i am going to set my ground rules, if this is something you cant agree on, then this won't work:
i only use PayPal and Telegram
i will verify myself however you want me to and i expect the same from you
i won't show my face unless it is for verification purposes (maybe if we are comfortable with each other yes, but this will need a lot of time)
i am looking forward to someone with respect and who treats me like a mutual. this means i am not submissive (maybe just a little when it comes to the sexual part, but that's it)
i am looking for something strictly online, don't try to make me meet up with you, this won't work
yeah well, these are some things that came up to my mind. i don't want to scare you off, just wanted to be honest and not waste anyones time. and now a little bit about me :) i am 20 years old, 5'1 tall and in need of a (online) sugardaddy who can spoil me in exchange with sexy pics and vide, talking/friendship, gfe and so on. yes, i am an experienced sugarbaby, i already had two longterm relationships. I am just a university student who wants some financial help. i am not dumb at all and i am actually really independent, just need a bit of financial help cause you know, life isn't cheap nowadays (no I don't like expensive clothes or whatever, just trying to stay alive😂)
thats it from me, i know this was a lot but if you read until the end then you probably aren't a scammer and feel free to contact me (but please dont say "hey baby" cause thats what a lot of scammers do and i won't reply to that) just don't be a dick and respect my boundaries. if that's the case feel free to dm me🤪😊

Sorry for bad english, not my first language. This will be a bit more personal but I just have to dump it somewhere.
Me and my gf of 2 1/2 months were meeting up with her guy best friend this saturday. They never had contact prior to wednesday when I secretly made arrangements with her best friend to meet up. On saturday we wanted to drink a little and chill at the beach. Before we did that we collected a few other people and while doing that already drank a bit. I wasn't gonna drive home since we wanted to sleep over at her best friends apartment. We chilled at another friends house for a while and my gf and him wanted to make mirror selfies. So they went into the bathroom, he locked the door and they made some. (The next part is what my gf told me what happened and I believe her to my fullest because this sounds like something she'd do) she then turned around facing him and asked if he wanted to make some more pics or if it's enough. He then just pulled her towards him and kissed her. She stopped it after like 2 seconds and came out of the bathroom. She continued the evening completely normal until the two of us wanted to get some snacks for the beach. Right after we started going to the store I asked her if she also felt that her best friend was being weird. She then unpacked the whole story and the moment she told me he kissed her I just stood there. I couldn't believe my ears. It was like I was struck by lightning and my whole body was just stiff from the shock. I wasn't even mad at her since she did nothing wrong. At first I was really sad and upset but then that turned into anger against her best friend really quick. The whole 40 mins walk to the store and back was so awkward but we told ourselves that it was not her fault since he asked her a day earlier if she wanted to sleep in his bed and if I would sleep on his couch with the other friend we stayed over for a little bit.
We just ended up bringing the snacks to the beach I had a quick conversation with the guy and we immediately left. We went to my car and I called my brother and asked him if him and my dad would come pick us up since I couldn't drive anymore. They did and me and my gf just cuddled and I cried for the rest of the night. I'm a bit better now but I just can't get the scene out of my head how it must've looked when they kissed.

Hahaha Aaaahh! H'Haahuhaah!! Aaaahhhhg!
Hey, so get this.
I was surfacing the areas of the "broad-spectrum" upon the world' most recent pandemic, and do you know what I came to resurface?
Dude! "DuuuuuU'Da!"
A mothership of a stronghold that holds these key facts to life and about myself beyond fathomable doubt on how to - aquire, obtain, and endeavor. (AOE) Complete Forgiveness
Could it have been due to "Our" worst fears coming true?..! 🤔 > a simple repeat, perhaps!
(Or, not. idfk! ☺️) = [Until I hear it from YOU.] ^like Myself, having left a rude voice-mail sent to your mother, on my 30th spin on 🌎.
<(my dumbass immediately balled after you told me whose number that it was... who called me.)>
Of all the past feelings(felt) that had to go on, it was set in(to) a motion(less) fissure for present-mishaps that was to guide&lead us both back: to+get+her= "together."
~Forgive me, this is silly af!~
But!
^{I had prayed on us to be" her} "^{biggest surprise in"} life.
As for you, yourself. You were all i had needed/wanted for my 30th😁 😕 😞*

Folks are so obsessed with what God gave them (self, always included) that they literally "lose," their Minds over that given sense of that feeling.
The fires; powers were immense with no control beyond othe behind, and furthermore what your backside could appreciate another minds design for what some would call to be. . . INFINITE.

Let's break it down A! bit. <

I'd rather not waste what was previously mentioned above(your time) as for "It is, what it is." That's all I've been given for having what i hadn't rightfully taken seriously. And that's because it remains at a no comply (a skateboard trick; a cheap trick.)
I'll keep smiling for you from your most favored instance of being at a distance as you are my person and it's now become my soul mission.

• Be as patient as you have been ok. Im seeking you out with what you labeled these eyes as for - has taken full affect. Did you know this whole time of what we were capable of being together?

HAPPY 29TH BIRTHDAY! 🎂 🥳 🎉

Back in college I went through a phase where I felt so uncomfortable in my apartment. It first started with feeling like grossed out by it, (it was an older non renovated apartment for context), even if I cleaned it and then I eventually stopped sitting in the living room, then stopped feeling comfortable cooking in the kitchen and using the fridge, to the point where I only felt safe on my bed.
I hated being home but also was going through a hard time with depression and anxiety in general where I always wanted to retreat to my room since it felt safe and comfortable, until it didn’t.
Got to the point where everything I did had to be done from bed. Sleep work and I would pick up food and eat it in bed.
Fast forward I moved home and felt fine, moved out to my first apartment felt fine, and now fast forward I’m in a new apartment (been living here for 5 months) and it feel this anxiety coming on again.
My building is older similar I guess to the college apartment, and I’m back at the same spot where I can’t get myself to go in my kitchen without feeling grossed out or anxiety and when I get home from work everything again needs to be done from bed.
Anyone else experienced this or maybe have some advice for me?
I don’t plan on renewing my lease here when it’s time so I think I might try to spend a bit more to maybe be in either a newer building or rehabbed/gutted unit to see if this would happen again but I feel like there must be something I can try in the mean time to help with what I’m feeling.
Any thoughts?

I was messing around with skill tree for necro several times since the game came out a few days ago. (FYI I am a super casual player so I was simply having fun with the build) Below is a summary of how I ended up with Darkness + minion build.
Funkiness with bone cage: I initially went bone build for primary and secondary due to crit affinity, but everything else kinda fell apart when I faced astaroth at act 2 (just felt harder than it should've been with my build at the time.). The thing I think makes bone spear build particularly disappointing for me was how the bone cage works now compared to diablo 2. It didn't feel like the sklill synergized with how it was played before in d2. (large cage, can only create one at a time, doesn't work for bosses).
Funkiness with corpse explosion: Initially, I tried to incorporate corpse explosion as much as possible, but I realized that this one skill (or the nature of having corpses drop, and making me feel like I gotta use it somehow), was the thing that made my initial builds super restrictive. Like, if corpses as resources is such a central nature of the necromancer, I wish the skill tree was dynamic enough to adapt it to different passives and affinities. I ended up just not using corpse explosion at all, despite how counter-intuitive this path was.
Darkness + minion build: Going full synergy for darkness works quite well with aspects that increase the number of minions, and having an extra golem to tank/taunt. - I use the golem to occasionally make the stun+vulnerability status on the enemies. I think that having at least one skill that gives vulnerability state on enemy is crucial for d4. - 3 aspects. One increases damage of my warriors, while the other 2 increases the # of minions (+2 warrior, +3 mage): I have 6 warrior, 6 mage, 1 golem. - Ult has a cooldown I think its about 70 seconds - maxed out the path so that it also respawns ALL of my minions. Very useful for the current build when fighting bosses or elites. usually my minions don't completely die, but there are times they come close. - my core attack with scyth scales with number of minions (I think 2% damage increase?) so that's 26% - the downside with this build is that I still have to use warrior I have decrepify at level 1 + enhanced (was contemplating even that might not have been worth) - this is good because relatively cheap skill that I can spam on pve, and I needed this so it worked with terror passive (darkness) that does more dmg on slowed enemies (I don't think it matter what % of slow is applied, so I only put 1 point in that skill to proc passive).
The build has been working alright for me so far for pve and boss fights (only lvl 50 atm). I might swap to bone spear build and somehow find a good synergy path later down the road, or replace the use of golems with something else for darkness+ minion build (honestly, golem has been a G. tanky af).
One really annoying thing about this build was that sometimes I have to proactively manage the corpses so that my minions with low health get recycled before the shit hits the fan (wipe out). It feels like an unnecessary amount of APM to be on par with other builds' damage output etc.

TL;DR: I examin how the Star Wars villain, Darth Sidious, utilized a Cat's Paw and then once discovered, turns a wouldbe setback into a major victory. In doing, appearing confident and in control.
First, a brief preamble – Albert Camus once wrote "Fiction is the lie through which we tell the truth." To the spirit of that quote, much of my analysis into power comes from good fiction. These patterns and themes I've seen in history, reflected again and again, regardless of setting or wider context. In these analysis, I hope to present these present these themes. To some, these may appear elementary. To those, I say congratulations. To others, this may still prove a some benefit.
Today, let's discuss a speech by the pan-ultimate Star Wars villain – Emperor Palpatine, otherwise known as Darth Sidious.
LAW 26: Keep Your Hands Clean.
Observance – Darth Sidious, now Emperor of a burgeoning new empire has ended the Clone Wars, all but eradicated his enemy, the jedi, and now must eliminate the clones. But how? He spent years undermining the Jedi, sowing resentment and doubt. The Separatist too, by Lord Vader's hand have been crushed. The clones however, they're looked on as capable and loyal soldiers faithful to... the republic. Hm... yes, the do need to go. So how to deal with them?
First, the Emperor had to bring the cloning facilities under the control of the galactic empire. In the era of the Galactic Republic, these facilities were operated by the Kaminoins, who sold the clones to the Grand Army of the Republic (GAR) for credits. So, through Grand Moff Wilim Tarkin, Darth Sidious ordered Admiral Rampart to evacuate clones and essential personnel (who could be of later use). Then destroy Tipoca city and the cloning facilities therein.
Vice Admiral Rampart, was a loyal officer to the Empire. He was eager to show his loyalty and was often the Hatchet man for their agenda. Prior to the destruction of Tipoca city, he was tasked with the subjugation of Ryloth – a planet still skeptical about the Empire.
He was also an initial proponent for the "Imperial Defense Recruitment Bill," stating "The galaxy is at peace, but our work is never done. A new military comprised of our own citizens, will usher in a new era of safety and security. A vote for the Defense Recruitment Bill is a vote for the future."
The bill was rejected twice before reaching the stage of preliminary hearings, where it faced critique from Senators Bail Organa of Alderaan and Tynnra Pamlo of Taris due to them believing the discussion for a new army to be unnecessary at the time, as well as Riyo Chuchi of Pantora, who called for more fair representation for the clones who would be directly impacted by the bill. The vote was eventually postponed.
Later, Senator Riyo Chuchi, with help from a resistance group, obtained evidence of Vice Admiral Rampart's involvement in the destruction of Tipoca city, presenting her findings before the Senate Floor.
Theme Squeeze Opportunities Out of Desaster. It will make you appear more capable and in control.
The Emperor quickly thought of a way to spin this would be disaster to his advantage. In the middle of their debate, The Emperor, would hold and impromptu address. (LAW 17: Keep Others in Suspended Terror. // LAW 28: Enter Action With Boldness).
The Speach:
"I am deeply troubled by this recent revelation.
My gratitude to Senator Chuchi for exposing a rogue element within our ranks.
Many lives have been lost, but I assure you, Admiral Rampart will face the consequences for his treachery.
However, he did not act alone. The fact that the clones under his command so blindly followed orders, inflicting such carnage without hesitation ... gives me pause.
Perhaps, it's time for a change. Now, more than ever, building a strong galaxy requires protection and security.
Due to the nefarious actions of Admiral Rampart and the immediacy of the bill on the floor today – it is my opinion that this legislation is our future.
With this momentous act, we shall usher in a new era, heralded by the Imperial Stormtrooper."
Now, let's break apart this speach.
First, he creates distance from the atrocities committed. "I am troubled by this recent Revelation."
Second, he tries to build bridges between opposition by praising a Senator opposed to the bill he supports.
Third, he decries the actions of Vice Admiral Rampart.
Forth, now here's where it gets good. The Emperor, further decrying Rampart, then twists the blame onto the clones. While Republic propaganda claimed that the clones were soldiers loyal to the Republic, they were in practice, loyal to their Generals and the Jedi, (whom the galaxy had recently seen destroyed by their hand). There was a large controversy regarding subjugation and rights abuses carried out by the clones throughout the war. This lead to the average citizen seeing them as a useful "other." Following the end of the war, Vice Admiral Rampart remarked that "Clone loyalty does not seem to be as advertised anymore." Now the Emperor was going to drive home that wedge of fear felt by the Galactic citizenry.
Now, he introduced the call to action. Having the galaxy fear the "other" that are the clones, yet further enforce the calls for protection and security, he let's the audience infer who better to protect the galaxy, then by the citizens thereof?
So there we have it, how the Emperor has turned a minor loss into an absolute victory.
Are there points I neglected? Is my analysis off base? Please, respectufully discuss your thoughts in comments. Thank you!

Ok i need to vent My dad makes me extremely uncomfortable. (English is not my first language I did my best to be understandable)
He always makes s*xual jokes around me.
My dad was very often telling me his sexual intercourse since a very young age (and it was always very gross and detailed).Always as a joke tho so I never took it seriously. but as I grew up I became more and more uncomfortable with him, because I was becoming an adult that had a feminine develop body.
When we are hanging together he always looks at women in a weird way he once said : “my eyes are the only part of my body that doesn’t age, my mind is still young” after I reproached him that I was founding it weird that he was looking at a young adult around me (I was a young teenager around that time)
I often tell him to stop his comments like this but he takes it as a joke. Always.
Fun fact my dad works in a prison
When I was a child he used to talk to me so much about pedophiles because he was scared for me so he talked about them constantly. He said it was because of his job because he was seeing them everyday. To the point I was scared of every man. He said he knew how mans were thinking because he was one… so it was only prevention.
When I was a child my father had several girlfriends and told me every relationship details. He was cheating on them and I had to keep the secrets. He would make girlfriends everywhere... ex: we always went to lunch together at the same restaurant…well he ended up going out with the waitress who was serving us. It was like that everywhere. Like my school teachers, my school supervisor, the waitresses at the restaurants we went to & the mothers of my friends. Everywhere was un opportunity.
My father likes women with long curly brown hair, dark eyes and a little curvy, short petite stature. Which is literally what I look like!!!! (Yes this is traumatizing) (probably why I did cut my hair when I had the right to… I don’t know)
But I got to a point where I don't know what to do anymore, every time I see my father I layer my clothes to cover my curves and I don't wear makeup. I don't see him often and he blames me a lot.
My father has already commented on my appearance many times. He one time told me that he thought it absurd that I did not shave my legs as a woman and that he could pay for the laser removal and that he understood that I was lazy about it (which I wasn’t). I told him it was my personal choice. And then he asked me if I shaved my pubs because i probably didn’t satisfied my boyfriend at the time because men don’t like that (i was 16).
When I’ve cut my hair for the first time very short he told me that I was prettier before. (As a kid I was obliged to have long hair because it was the most beautiful thing about me for my parents)
I could go on for hours about all the explicit things he told me as a child.
I on the other hand can’t talk to him about anything remotely sexual like I can’t say the word v*gina in a social normal context, because it makes him uncomfortable.
But what breaks me the most emotionally, is that recently he told me that he was giving me less hugs since my breasts had grown because it made him feel uncomfortable.
I haven't spoken to my mother since I was 17 because she ab*sed me psychologically. I moved in with my father at 17 for 1 year only. Afterwards I went to an apartment for school that my father paid me because he preferred that we each had our own space. We always got along well on the surface but let's say that I avoid a lot of things .My father neglected me a lot as a child, but he always supported me monetarily and he still does. I've been seeing a therapist for 2 years that he pays, he on the other hand really doesn't want to consult. I got to a point that I don't know what to do. I love my father very much but I am also afraid of him. I talk about feminist stuff around him but he doesn’t really listen.
Im now 20 years old and he’s my only parent he pays most of my stuff and I love him but im very uncomfortable around him and I don’t know what to do.

Hi, first time posting. Sorry in advance for the long post but I need some help. I don’t currently own a dog but am currently in the process of trying to adopt one. I met him for the first time today. Here’s the back story and the reason I’m asking for help:
This dog is a year old and has been at the shelter for the last 5 months. His previous family likely hit him as he is quite jumpy and easily startled by the movement of a hand or even adjusting your seated posture too quickly.
When I met him today, we took it very slow. The woman at the shelter and I sat in an outdoor play area with him. She told me to almost ignore him when we got inside and to let him realize that we are safe and to let him come up to me when he was ready. So that’s what we did. We talked for about ten minutes then eventually he came near me and sniffed from a distance. I hardly looked at him at first so as not to frighten him or feel like a threat. After maybe another ten minutes he took a treat from me and then he was circling back my way to receive a treat then would walk away again still unsure about me. That’s fine - it’s what I expected going in. Eventually after maybe 30 minutes we got to a point where he let me pet his chin. Then another 10 minutes later he let me pet his neck and top of his head. Between those two, there was a point where I reached toward him and he jumped. I must have moved my hand too quickly even though I felt like I was going slow. So I think he’s really been through it which just tears me apart.
Anyway, I went from sitting in a chair to sitting on the ground and still was giving him treats as he made his circles between me, some toys, and the shelter lady, giving some scratches here and there when he allowed. Then the shelter lady asked if I’d like to walk him which of course I wanted to. So she did a lap around the play area with him, then did another lap with me walking next to her. Then she handed me the leash and he and I did 3-4 laps together. He is a confident walker which I was excited about and he didn’t seem bothered that I was holding the leash. When we finished that we sat back down on the ground and it was back to him assessing the situation and doing his loops between us and some toys that were around. We were both encouraging him when he would pick up a toy and bring it near or squeak it and I could tell he liked that.
It was getting to be time for me to go but before I left I had the chance to see him do some zoomies and acting much more playful. It seemed like he had built up the courage to be himself in front of us! I loved seeing that big pit smile on his face! Before leaving I told the shelter people that I wanted to adopt him and she sent the paperwork my way.
A little while after I left the shelter, she messaged me that they pulled his file to read about when he was dropped off at the shelter originally and they found that there was mention of severe separation anxiety. The previous family vaguely mentioned that when left alone he was destructive and didn’t do very well.
I work in an office 3 days a week and work from home the other 2. Other than that I don’t go out much aside from a weekly 2.5 hour rehearsal that I have and the occasional haircut. Work allows a certain period of work from home time so I’d probably take the first 2-3 weeks of having him to just be home and get to bond and learn each others routines. I was planning to enroll him in a doggy day care/training type of thing on the days that I’m in office and then to be with him the other times. I wasn’t too concerned with him being shy and hesitant around people cause I feel confident that I can give him the space, time, and love that he needs to be able to open up and see the kindness in people. What worries me is the separation anxiety. Will I ever be able to leave him alone without worrying that he is breaking things or hurting himself? Can it be trained out of him over time? If he can’t be out free roaming, is it ok to keep him crated during those shorter periods (again 2-3 hours max) while I’m away or would that be even worse for his separation anxiety?
I should also mention that he is GREAT with other dogs. It’s really only people that bother him. There’s a bit of a warming period when he meets someone as described above but he gets along well with dogs. Am I cut out to be his person? Will my work schedule be too hard for him to cope with? I’m still really leaning towards adopting him, but I want to make sure that it is the best thing for him too and not only consider my personal feelings and want of a dog. I got such a good feeling from him when I saw him online and when I met him at the shelter and I just don’t want to let him down or make him think I don’t care for him during those times that I do have to leave or be apart. I’m open to any and all advice and thanks for reading if you made it this far

I've seen lots of threads on here with the same issue as me: early 20s, live in a house with 3 other people, and two of them refuse to clean or help in any way while also being the cause of the most messes, trashing the house constantly, and causing problems all the time. I'm the only one who cleans and puts money into buying cleaning supplies. And every thread that's like this gets comments that say the same thing: stop doing it, stop letting them walk all over you, let the trash pile up until they finally clean, etc.
No. You do not understand. I have lived with these people for a year, they move out on June 15th, and if those actions are taken they simply will not do it. In fact, nobody will. It will get worse and they will live in their own filth and then we will all live in their filth. At the beginning of this year I refused to clean up cat messes on behalf of not owning any of the cats who lived here and the two of them, who have a cat that pees on piles of clothes on the floor, made a massive pile of clothes next to the laundry room and let it sit for months. The cat peed and pooped on it until it soaked through layers of clothing into the carpet. It was actual genuine hoarder shit I had to live with. Eventually the landlord was scheduled to come show the house and nobody was doing anything about it, and yes I know I should have left it and let them get kicked out but we would have all been blamed, I know what I should have done, but I cleaned it up, I threw a bunch of their clothes away and shampooed the carpet the best I could and told them that it absolutely could not happen again. We added another litter box, I started cleaning the litterboxes every day even though I don't own a cat, and things got marginally better. From the point of view of the person who owns this cat, it's okay if she pees on clothes because they're dirty already. Seriously. And that's just one example.
We tried to get a cleaning schedule going. We tried to get organized, to bother them into helping, to get a chart or something started so we could all split up the work, and every single time it fell apart into them doing the absolute bare minimum while moaning and complaining the whole time and then not doing anything at all on their own. Weaponized incompetence, etc. The dishes they make dirty don't get cleaned if I don't do it, they literally just sit and attract flies and make the rest of us suffer. In September of this year I got COVID and I naively thought someone else in our house would actually do their own dishes for once. The only person who did any was one of my other roommates who has sensitivities to smell and tries their best but could not for the life of them get down to the bottom. When I got better after 5 days of genuinely being really sick in the basement of our house, I went upstairs and found the kitchen trashed, because they trash the kitchen every two to three days and we were living with a fifth roommate at the time who made it even worse, but worse than usual because it had been backlogged 5-7 days.
My roommates leave food out for days. If they drop something, they don't pick it up. Clothes stay on the floor and couch. We've already covered the cat pissing issue. One of them walks around the house eating popcorn dropping it all over the floor in a trail and then not picking it up. They've lied to me before to avoid helping clean.
They would live like this. They think this is okay. 'They're doing this because they know you'll do it' I do not care dude I want to live somewhere clean. I want to live in a house that isn't a hoarder house all the time. I want clean dishes and carpets that don't smell like pee and if I don't do it, I will have to live without those things. I cannot do that. The fifth person who was adding to this situation when they lived here moved out and believe it or not, things have been better since they left.
I hate them both so much. I hate that they both are polyamorous and have multiple budding relationships when I don't do anything but clean. I hate that one of them works part time and has all the time in the world to do this shit and doesn't, in fact she's the one that moans and complains and drags her feet the most. I'm done being a live-in maid for people who don't give a shit and I hate that the simplest solution is to do nothing and see whatever rock bottom our living spaces could hit that's the same as or worse than a pile of clothes with cat piss and shit soaked into them.
I hate seeing stuff about how this means I'm enabling them, even if it might be true. What am I supposed to do? Like, have I not tried everything possible to fix this situation? I literally cannot argue with them just not doing it and living in their own filth time and time again. If it gets bad enough they will do the bare minimum to put off doing more to let it get worse.
Writing this I'm realizing maybe I am enabling them. But I wanted somebody to care. I just wanted to not live in their filth all the time. I felt like I had to pick my battles, either hold their hands and bother them to do the smallest cleaning task that would ultimately be left undone or done to the lowest standard possible unless they can have sex with someone as a reward or just cut my losses and do it myself. I feel so bad mentally right now thinking about it. I'm so angry and so sad, things have gotten worse recently because they're getting closer to moving out and one of them threatened suicide, my remaining roommate at least tries and dude that's all I ever wanted, man, I just wanted somebody to try. I know my bar is low as fuck man I know that I'm a doormat but man I just want to live somewhere clean, man. I feel horrible. Their behavior bothers their partners as well so I know I at lease have some people on my side.
I've actually lost a lot of hope and faith living with these people this year. Like I know it's just cleaning but it's more than just cleaning. I feel like I don't have anyone in my life I can depend on to help me, even when I ask for help. My therapist told me last week that maybe it makes me feel like I'm not worth the reciprocation, and maybe that's true, but at the same time it doesn't go that deep. They just don't care and they never did. I can't wait for them to be gone so maybe I can feel a little less like I'm going insane for the first time in a year.

I’ve recently gotten a black German shepherd puppy but am moving out of my home soon. Most of the apartments I am interested in have a ban on big dogs including German shepherds. Has anyone found a way around it? I’ve heard of saying they are a support animal but not sure how to go about that. Anything helps, thanks!

I’m looking to transport 10 people from a hotel to a wedding venue in Carlsbad. The hotel and the venue are 3 miles apart and less than a 10 min drive. The cheapest quote I have gotten for a one way transfer is $350. Even that seems a bit highly priced to me for what it is. That’s over $100 per mile and all that $$$ for less than a 10 min drive?
I’m trying to be budget conscious and was curious what other people in the area do in these kind of situations? Are people really spending this for such short drives? All the other quotes were even higher. I feel like for such a short drive it shouldn’t be that expensive.
