#but you have to do like payments

[1smolbean]

the whole “a submarine that costs 250k per ticket and is made up of cobbled-together parts that you can only open from the outside because it is secured by 17 deadbolts went missing while carrying several very rich people to tour the wreckage of the titanic, a ship that over 1500 (mostly working class) people died on, a ship whose wreckage should not become a tourist attraction because people fucking died there” situation that’s going on right now is just. so much in a way that i can’t really describe

#lee speaks #titanic #oceangate #my main thing is like. $250k could pay off all my family’s debts and we could still have enough for a down payment on our house #we’d probably even have some left over #i don’t want to judge people for how they spend their money but why would you go on this sub if it wasn’t completely up to code #which it absolutely is not #like its horrible that theyre in this predicament and i do hope theyre rescued but like. #don’t be spending 250k on stuff like this cmon

Hiiii besties I um. Rly want money. Would anyone want a tweened icon like these for like $20? I'm usually pretty fast with them so it shouldn't take longer than like a few days max

#rat rambles #I can accept payment through pretty much anything as long as its not too much of a hassle to set up #dw if you can't afford it its not like an emergency I just want to have the money to buy my siblings (and myself) presents this year #so like 3 or 4 coms like this should be enough for some basic gifts at least #ofc feel free to tip or get one of my normal coms if you wanna pay more but Im going cheap since I just want smth #idk if I wanna advertise this too hard tho so do pls reblog but Im not gonna go all out with tags 👍 #Ill also probably post this offer on toyhouse if this gets no results #so yeah limited time cheap ass tweened icons for less than my normal non animated busts get em while theyre hot or whatever

naur because 2x15 'irresistible' is honestly not even canon to me as an episode. why would zane of all people desire a potion that would make rikki fall at his feet and hang on his every word. my guy had a version of that with miriam and HATED it, as soon as the girl who had been making snide, sarcastic comments in his general direction for months became available as a romantic prospect he basically fell for her on the spot. rikki is loud and brash and picks fights over the slightest provocation, and zane adores her for it. if it is to be said so it be

#if the ambergris plotline HAD to be a thing then maybe lewis could have stumbled upon it antiquing and decided not to buy it #then charlotte buys it for him as a present but leaves the premises as soon as she smells it. lewis goes to cool her off and leaves it on #the table outside the juicenet for nate to find it. that's literally all they had to do. jonathan shiff i will take my payment in cash #but like can't you see charlotte and lewis going antiquing together. take my hand do you SEE the vision #h2o just add water #h2o #.txt #zikki

PSA -

if earlier this year we've been in contact for a commission (before my brain crapped itself and sent me to burnout land) PLEASE contact me again if you still want one! I am trying to fill my schedule for oct-nov-dec with prev inquiries/waitlisted/etc

as for general openings I will likely reopen in January, but I have to find a way that doesn't give me the perception of overload so I might restrict to 2-3 slots per month I might also be doing a quick round of those kofi sketches again soon - was thinkking of a bg3 oc edition round!!! lmk if you'd like that!!

#anyway this is why I only ever ask for payment once I am already deep in the process of working on a piece #and if you've ever commissioned me you know I am fast as hell and average delivery for a lineart is like. 3 days after sketch #but I am still in the process of med titration and working to find strategies to make myself functional #the ''blessing'' of adult diagnoses lmao #meaning I still fall apart badly sometimes if I do some things the wrong way or have a particularly bad mood episode that meds can't catch

[why-the-heck-not]

death to services that ask for ur payment info even tho they are free >:( then why in the good goddamn hell would u need that info then hhUH ???

#trying to use fly.io to get this stupid app to the internet and dude I do not want to put my credit card info there #it’s for one (1) course I don’t want to suddenly wake up some day and see that I have a big ass bill for something I thought was free #bc i don’t trust anything to actually stay free #and fly.io ’’ we don’t offer free-tier. instead we offer some free resource allowances that include enough usage per month to run a small #app for free’’ but like that seems sketchy?? like are they going to inform me like hey so if u don’t take this down we are going to start #billing you?? seems like it’ll be ’’hey so ur app is actually not what we consider ’’small’’ so we took the liberty to rob ur entire #apartment for payment thanxx <3’’ #stupid heroku deciding that u now how to pay for it like literally what can u do in this world without putting ur bank account on the line?? #literally nothing #september 2023 #2023

omfg i got hate on reddit i forgot that redditors are the worst people alive

#🐾 #asked for advice about making a mistake on unemployment payment application and putting the wrong number in -> ''now we know why you don't #have a job''. LIKE OKAY.. LMFAO #it was removed and everything but what a hilarious stance to have in the Unemployed People Getting Money From the Government subreddit #like as if he wasn't also on the same payment... #also the implication that i was just stupid i guess. probably also to do w how i wrote the post #clocked for being disabled over text how do i manage to do it 💪💪💪

In honour of your yellow moodboard, a yellow prompt for Willie: "I think I broke my leg."

Julie had practically given up on her homework when her phone rang, the screen displaying the caller may be potential spam. Normally she wouldn’t answer these but given the choice between potentially being able to troll some scammer or pull out her own hair, she chose the former. Not even bothering to hide her frustration from her greeting?

“Julie?” 

Her brows furrowed, incredibly tempted to hang up then but something about the vague familiarity of their voice kept her on the line. “Who is this?”

“It’s Willie.”

“Willie?” That got her to sit up straighter, automatically looking around her room for Alex even though she already knew he wasn’t there. “What? How did you call me?”

“Ghost trick.” He chuckled though it sounded strained. 

“Oh.” She did vaguely remember the guys mentioning Willie being able to mess with electronics. Even heard Carlos mention some supposed true stories of ghosts being able to talk through radios and phones, she just didn’t expect it to be true. “Uuuh, sorry but Alex isn’t here right now.”

“Actually,” Willie took a sharp breath that sounded like a hiss across the line. “I didn't want to panic him and I didn’t know who else to call.”

“Why? What’s going on?”

“I think. . I think I broke my leg.”

“What?” Julie’s brain briefly short circuited, wrapping her head around the sentence. She couldn’t have heard him right. “How?”

Another strained laugh and hiss of air. “Yeah, I landed this trick wrong, and didn’t catch myself properly.”

“But you’re a ghost” She practically screeches, interrupting his explanation

“So are the guys.” 

It’s a bizarrely valid argument in a conversation she never expected to have. Ever since the post Orpheum hug the guys had been toeing the line between life and death until it wasn’t clear if there even was a line there anymore. 

“Right.” She says with a sigh, there are more important things to focus on at the moment. “Can you still poof?”

“I haven’t tried, wasn’t sure where to poof to, y’know?”

“Yeah,” she agrees, not sure herself where they should even take him to get checked out. Would he even be visible to a doctor? Were there any ghost doctors? “Ok, how about you try poofing here, and if you can’t we may have to get the guys involved. Then we’ll figure out where to go from there.”

“Yeah, yeah ok.” He says and the line goes dead.

While she knows he didn’t want to worry Alex, she doubts she can figure this out on her own and informing Luke or Reggie meant it eventually getting back to Alex regardless. So while she shoots a 911 text to Flynn she mentally pulls for the guys and goes to warn her Dad of the potential impending freakouts.

#julie and the phantoms #willie & julie #Not Pictured: #Poor Willie probably broke his leg a while ago and has been dealing with some serious death related ptsd #Of Course everyone freaks out about the whole situation #there's a whole debate about taking him to the ER which ends with the lack of vital signs would probably complicate mattees #not to mention insurance and payment things #Eventually they call Carrie like Do you guys have a private doctor who offers house calls??

Me when I'm listening to the most stupidest story about my mom giving my brother $1500 for a down payment for a 2nd car while his in the shop for a deer hitting him and him losing the nonrefundable $1500 cause he drove 2 hours away to a scummy dealership and he didn't get approve for enough credit from the bank

#like... idk maybe cause I don't have a son but does anyone else have experience with a mom acting delulu for their son??? #like... 1st she paid $17k for the brand new 2022 which he traded in behind her back so he can get a 'fast car' #he got in an accident in the fast car mom put the parts to repair on her credit cards #since now the fast car wasnt pretty any more with mixmatch parts he traded in that car for a lexus for payments #which is dumb cause the whole excuse on why he traded in the 2022 cause he didn't want payments #he hit a deer with the lexus and i guess he thought they was gonna total the car cause he was already looking for a new one #but they gonna fix the lexus but he still went to try to get that car... #and that lady just agreed to it... #he owes her thousands of dollars... #she keeps on saying 'oh well he got a new job making $17 an hour and plus he's working a part time he's gonna pay me back #he's been saying that since he traded the 2022 and he barely paid you anything... #like why are you enabling his impulse purchasing??? #he thinks these cars are like toys or something and you just letting him use your cash and credit like that... #then she's like... 'well I would do the same for us' referring to us other daughters #but like... we're not idiots that would purposely put you in these situations... #why on earth does he need a 2nd car??? he only making $17 an hour plus a part time job??? you live at home??? why did you agree to this??? #just tell him no for once???? #idk I feel like I'm going crazy or am I just super stingy with my money and credit score? #callyie chat

AHHHHHH

#this post brought to you by: me #i. applied for a preapproval letter for a mortgage yesterday. and spoke to a realtor to start finding me houses #i want to move several states away which further complicated things. but the houses there are CHEAP #like under 100k for a 2 bedroom move in ready #anyways i got approved for 80k with a 20k down payment. and im FREAKING THE FUCK OUT #and because i got that pre app letter i have a loan officer calling me today to talk #and we literally work at the same bank so i can SEE that hes active and hasnt read my message #even though its been 45 minutes. KEVIN MESSAGE ME BACK. IM NOT GONNA BE ABLE TO FOCUS UNTIL I DO THIS CALL #AHHHHHHH S C R E A M. it might happening!!!! i might be finally.mov8ng out in a few months!!! #i mgiht be a HOMEOWNER by the end of the year #i have been saving money for this since i was. 16? 17? #ive had a good well paying job since i was 18. #AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH #once i have a house then i start job searching in that area. and start getting really serious about LEAVING my very good job #which is soooo scary. this job was supposed to be my lifelong career. but then everyone fucking moved to other states and left me behind #so theres no point staying here. #i might never have this kind of job security again. #but also my realtor said that theres a lot of bank jobs in that area so maybe itll be easy to find something #on the fence on if i tell my parents that im Making Moves right now #on one hand its hard to not talk about it becuae im STRESSED TF OUT #but on the other hand when i tentatively mentioned the state i want to move to #richard started yelling and swearing el oh el #might be better to wait and avoid the tension as long as possible? #but also i dont know how they can stay angry when its literally my best option #the other places where my friends live either have 0 opportunity and high housing prices. or are even moe liberal than where im going #idk. why do half of my problems come down to “my parents will be mad” like im a 12 year old or something. shit fucking sucks #this is why i want to get out of here #also it feels weird and bad to talk to my friends about how stressed i am about buying a house when all of them are stressed about #not being able to make rent or something. my problems feel like a brag in a really odd and shitty way. but hey! #if this works out maybe ill start being stressed about how im going to make my mortgage payments! :') yay!

bro what the fuck are they doing with my package

#fun story #i ordered 3 things from hot topic. they shipped but never arrived so a couple weeks later i messaged them abt it #and went back and forth with them for a while bc their customer service agents cant read apparently #before being told i had to call bc one of the things i ordered went out of stock and i was replacing it w smth more expensive #so i call and im on the phone for like a fucking hour missing the 15 minute window i have to eat between jobs #and being on the phone at work for a while lmao #i finally get it done and the guy fucking forgets my apartment number in the shipping address. it's in the billing address tho?? #so i email them AGAIN and im like yo your man forgot my apartment number. they cancel that order and place another #the effect this has is that the $14 payment for the more expensive item is cancelled as well. bc again they don't read #so im like sick i will effectively get these $60 pants for $15 (im very good at sales and also manipulating customer service) #but apparently when they replaced the order they put ny apartment number not in the address‚ but as part of my name????? #so i think its fucking up usps. but it came in 2 packages and 1 has arrived so i still have hope. but thats not the end #yesterday guess who fuckin calls me. its hot topic. my original order arrived to the fuckin store in my local mall #and theyre like i think we fucked up bc we just found this package but it says you picked up your order already. do u want it #and i was like yes? not really sure what package to be expecting and its my ORIGINAL FUCKING ORDER #so once this package arrives i will have gotten 2 of the same shirt‚ 2 kiki sign things‚ a sweater‚ and a pair of pants for $40 #and i figure i can return one of the shirts and one of the signs that i have duplicates of for store credit of their full price #so anyway yeah. thats been the past 3 weeks for me.

My week has been so damn stressful on the financial front I haven’t even wanted to make gifs or be online to analyze lmao but. I did start Heartstopper in an attempt to soothe myself with tooth-rotting fluff 😭😂

#I promise I am not gone I’m just stressed AF #my car is becoming a money pit because it just hit 100k #(miles) #and I’m trying desperately to figure out if I want to get a new car #or just sink more $$ into my current car through a few more years to save #student loan payments are also restarting in the US come October #and my side hustle (that supplements my salary the way it HAS to in order to survive in my state) #may or may not be the being October 1 because of a buyout 😭 #like. can I afford my life even without that? sure #and the car trouble is just. a pain in the ass either way #but jsksksmskksjsj I grew up hella poor so money things always stress me tf out #and it’s making my anxiety insane lsksjdnd my appetite is nearly gone + I wake up jumpy ad #tight jaw always tired feeling insane it is NOT FUN #anyway. if you read these tags thank u I just needed to rant somewhere LMAO #I should also find a therapist but GOD that’s energy I just do not have rn 😭 #the me tag

hey, regular reminder that if you get someone in your inbox (that you have never interacted with before/has never been following you) asking you to reblog a post on their blog (sob story asking for donations, usually about a pet to make it extra guilt-trippy) and they specifically ask you to answer this ask privately (for a vague and weak reason, why wouldn't they want more eyes on this post?) and then you go to their blog and their account is days old at most (and they're even claiming they have an old account that got shadowbanned ((?? being "shadowbanned" on tumblr does not mean you can't still post from that account?)) but never mention the url of that old blog) and all their reblogs are straight from the op and not from anyone they might be following who reblogged the post first (indicating they just quickly searched a semi-popular fandom tag to reblog some innocuous fanart to make the blog seem lived in)-

this is probably a scam :/ keep your eye out for odd details, inconsistency, and a glaring lack of credibility. stay safe out there everypony.

#ugh #yucky #bad taste in my mouth #this specific format of ask has also just been previously proven to be a scam tactic #so anybody trying to use it legitimately to fundraise is begging not to be taken seriously srry #they've clearly been in other peoples' inboxes with the same guilt-trippy copypasta #bc the ~200 notes they got are filled with ppl saying they cant donate rn but will signal boost it #ughhh #i'm rereading the exact wording of this post and getting so mad it doesn't make any sense #one of the pictures included is a vet invoice but they say they haven't gone to the vet yet but also the cat is pictured in a cone already #it does not make sense #said vet is also “the only one in the area that will take donations over the phone” but “needs to be paid upfront” #so. you cant have taken the cat to the vet yet. bc you dont have the money. which you are asking to be donated directly to ur paypal #thats not over the phone. thats. what? #MAYBE they mean an online payment but like. #then why do u have an invoice and the cat is clearly bandaged and in a cone already!! #then they also say the cat is already on antibiotics and only has days left if they dont get further treatment #and then a paragraph later claim the cat needs antibiotics! #im SO tempted to email this vet #i wont #im gonna put this to bed now

[aldieb]

the post is full of shady replies so i’m not rbing it but this reposted tiktok and its comments about how living the tradwife life could leave you with nothing if your husband divorces you and you have a 10-year gap on your resume is making me emotional. my grandpa didn’t believe in women going to college BUT he wanted my mom and her sisters to have a fallback in case the men in their lives didn’t treat them right. fast forward to a decade+ ago when my d*d randomly removed my mom from their joint bank account so she decided to go from being a sahm to teaching to have some money of her own (which she basically just spent on me and my brothers…) and then ofc she got divorced and couldn’t rely on alimony bc she knew no matter what lawyers said she would not be seeing a cent from him, but she had a good job so she was all right. it’s just crazy to me that your archetypal midwestern war vet cop could spot a problem in the 80s that people are brushing off today. let’s all keep separate bank accounts ok 👍

#text tag #‘what do you mean about the alimony’ dudes will quit their 6-figure jobs so that they don’t have to make payments to their exes. i #personally know several women who went thru this since my mom is now like the pied piper of wronged wives

Someone please tell my hyperanxious ass to calm the fuck down...

#anxiety~~ #when you make a decision on 1/6 with a deadline of 2/15 and you're stressing yourself out #and I'm also waiting for my second payment so I can pay off bills for the month and I'm sitting here like 'oh no I can't get it done' #knowing damn well it's due late month like 18th #the month is moving slow?? this week is moving slow or I'm moving fast I'm not sure but #I kinda hate this feeling #I have so many plans for this year #and yet what I need to do first and foremost is SETTLE THE FUCK DOWN
