huge disclaimer: I do not think im entitled to a new phone nor do I even want one, I just want to make sure im taking all steps necessary since the device was paid for by the government.

last month my social worker gave me $250 to get a phone and phone plan set up since she wanted me to have some more independence from my family unit. Things were go well, until the phone fell in water today and now doesnt turn on. it was my own fault and im not looking for a replacement, obviously cant afford a repair. HOWEVER.

the phone and the plan were paid for by Ontario works in hopes of me getting a job. im currently writing this from a laptop. I already emailed my social worker letting her know that I will no longer be reachable by phone and explained the reasoning. I also let her know to make sure to cancel my phone plan payment for June since I will no longer need a number with the phone not working. I am just wondering if this will get me in trouble in any way? I truly didnt mean to break it- it was an accident. and im definitely not asking for another or even asking money for repairs. im just terrified of the money to cover it being broken somehow gets taken out of our cheque since my stepdad will get mad at me if that happens. Outside of letting my social worker know and checking my bank account frequently to reverse any payment possibly made towards the mobile plan is there anything else I can do to cover my ass?

I am not fully sure what sub is best to post this in so I will be posting this in a few, I am sorry in advance as this has a lot of info and questions. I would like to hear from real people about this and cant talk to anyone in my life about it. AFAB and 20yrs old if relevant, no meds aside from lexapro and oral BC.

my mental health right now is very much dependent on my circumstances. I am currently depressed, feeling generally low and having suicidal thoughts (though no plan in place.) however I am self aware to a fault and know logically it's due to my current situation (poverty, food insecurity, possible financial abuse?).

I have been through DBT before when I was 17 and found it extremely helpful and am still using methods I have learnt of course, but I still feel stuck in some ways. due to being so self aware I know pretty much how to solve a lot of my issues - and realistically I feel like I just want to talk at someone about my problems with no actual solution. Which is 1. draining on the therapist 2. pointless activity, why should I be ruminating on it myself when I could just deal with it myself?

I am wondering if itd be more beneficial to just up my anxiety meds and take this all as it comes and just stick to Journaling, but the urge to talk "with" (or at. lets be real, people like me dont talk with others.) is rather strong sometimes out of either loneliness or boredom.

Manon's last name is bannerman. She is not a banner, nor is she a m3nz! Please chingees explain how last names work 🙏 shouldn't her last name be Education Is Hot Education Is Important, Education Is What Makes You A Good Good Person

Hi everyone, I never thought I'd have to post here again but long story short the food bank we were going to is now limited to one visit a month and now we are struggling to make ends meet. I have two dogs and they need food this week, but bills keep piling up and we can't afford it this month. On top of that the food we now get only lasts a week and for a household of 4 it doesnt really work out and I usually end up starving myself so my older parents and my sister can eat more.

I am currently unemployed despite having searching actively applying for over a year, I make some money doing surveys online but I couldn't reach the payout to get anything so far this week

I have an Amazon wishlist- it's just food for myself and my dogs, however the dog food is the absolute main priority. It is on the Canadian website since nothing ships to my address food wise on the us site, only dog treats which isn't necessary. I am *not* asking for money, please buy directly off the wishlist ONLY.

As a lot of people in this sub know, I have been practicing gel nails for a while and always ask for stuff relating to it. Well I finally decided recently I want to get serious about it and have some specific requests to further my advancement, and hopefully eventually get good enough to become licensed one day.

I would love anything on the following wishlists, but I am primarily looking for a nail drill, solid glue, base coat, top coat, practice hands and maybe one of the opi colour's.

I know this is a big ask, and absolutely nothing is necessary however I thought there was no harm in trying.

Also! Soon I plan on actually posting nails, unfortunately we had a few more breakages after I got into a fight with a can and lost.

TLDR: no j*bs just jops. This entire sub is satire, and be kind to people! Also I changed some rules.

Hey zuchinni eaters! I am your new mod Rat Aka the real manon ♡ We have noticed some things getting lost in translation in the sub, so it is about time to make a post explaining the sub.

Similar to r/kpoopheads this is a circlejerk sub, circlejerk subreddits are satire and mock the stereotypical echochambers of the internet. This sub is NOT the place for any genuine discussion, while most of us our eyekons this is a sub to make jokes.

Another thing I would like to note is basic respect to other members, you do not need to find their posts or comments funny however if they do not break any sub rules its best to leave them be. This includes no name calling.

This leads to the next point: rules have been added to, clarified, and changed.

1. Posts must be a shitpost/jerkpost

This sub is a satire sub. All posts must be a shitpost, meme, or jerk post. This sub is not the place for fan discussion or news

2. Keep ooc to a minimum

ooc/uj means you are no longer in character, if you aren't posting a jerk its best to use the phrase "OOC" or "UJ/" to show sincerity, however keep this to a minimum. We are here to eat zucchini after all.*

*ooc is ONLY allowed in the comments of a post. No OOC is allowed as its own post, take that to another sub.

3. Be kind

We are all here for jokes, you don't gotta find everyone funny but don't be mean. This includes no racism, homophobia, bigotry, etc.

4. No spam

Self explanatory. Keep back to back posts to a minimum and do not advertise or promote (your own content or otherwise.)

hey guys its manon/manu/mahno from katseye 🐱👁 ik a lot of my lovely fans have been asking abt me and I heard this is where all the kool kats come to jop so I thought I would anonymously post what's going on!!

As you all know my dream career has been a bus driver. I love those big yellow busses and I LOVE school!! I know I said in my recent interview I don't have my driver's license,but that's because I lied because I didnt wanna be compared to Oliva Rodrigo sunbaenim and experience what Yena unnie did...(I LUV RODRIGO)

also I had to take time off because we are finally expecting our 7th member 🥺 Lara and I are excited to announce our child Gnarlee Mia Gabriela Raj-Bannerman in 2027 ♡

I hope we all stay jopping and popping, keep ur pinkies up !

This is a long, mostly venting post. I have been trying to remain positive and put this all aside but I'm just so tired. I have lurked in this sub a few times, and have already posted this to another autism sub however I really need advice that's not just "buy food' or "apply to benefits" as I cannot do that.

I have autism and ADHD, this makes food extremely confusing for me. My safe foods rotate, however generally have a theme (usually one crunchy food, one softish , etc.). Sometimes things I used to like suddenly make me wanna vomit for months until I can stomach them again.

Now you may wonder why my title mentions the economy? Well I am unemployed right now, I live in a rural village and don't drive and cannot find a job here nor can I afford to travel to get a job right now. We cannot afford groceries and strictly use food banks and pantries that are once a month (foodbank) or twice a month (community food drive) and there is never enough for a household of 4 adults.. and coincidentally the things I find safe are the luxury items that everyone in the household fights to get a large amount of because we never see it.

It's not even like I can just eat if I don't like it, it's like I feel sick and can't make myself eat something if it's not something I want.

Obviously getting more food isn't an option, so I guess I am looking for help on being able to eat things I don't like because the brain fog and tiredness from not eating sucks but the idea of eating canned vegetables makes me wanna vomit. (I am very much aware I can use them in soups.. I just can't stand soup anymore..)
