Cat chased up a tree by dog

Two days ago at wright park I was walking my cat on his harness when a woman let her husky chase him up a tree because and I quote, “if I don’t let him go he drags me” and “I’m so sorry I thought it was a squirrel.” Because I know people will want the context before I get to my actual point; I was walking my large black tuxedo cat on his bright turquoise harness and leash and we were sitting by the larch trees while my cat rubbed against a tree when this lady let her dog go and the dog came running from up towards the pond. I am always on the lookout and saw it coming so I let my cat go so he could run and grabbed the dogs leash while telling it no. I did end up with a pretty severe rope burn, but I am more worried about my cat. He broke his canine/fang and needs a tooth extraction upwards of $3,200. I was not able to get this persons information as they immediately ran off while I tried to get my cat from the tree. Now I do not want a witch hunt, nor do I expect anything from them. I know the risks of walking my cat in a public park; if he didn’t literally lose his mind if he doesn’t get a walk I wouldn’t do it. But he does, and I accommodate as best as I can without letting him just roam since we live in an apartment. So I harness trained him. 🤷🏻‍♀️ However, I am at a complete loss how to pay for this. I just got my car back from the shop where it was for almost two months, $3k later and I need an engine replacement. I do not have good credit. We moved here a year ago and my credit cards have been maxed out from the move and because of expenses like the car (not the first time even this year I’ve put $3k into it keeping it running) and the vet (not the first time my cat has been to the emergency vet, URI, $1800) and several family emergencies and countless other general misfortunes, I’ve had no chance in hell of paying them off; lately it’s been a struggle just to feed myself and get around without a car. Woe is me I know. But all of this to say does anyone have a suggestion? I am located in stadium district, my car does drive for now so I can go somewhere out of the city. I applied for cherry and was approved for $350. I make decent money and just got a promotion so I can probably cover $1500 right away. I am sure I’m not the first person alive with bad credit and a shitty situation to try and get vet care for their cat so how did you do it??? In the past I have been able to do payment plans and things due to great credit, but again this last year was cursed. Help? lol

Tate’s THIRD marriage?

So scandalous. 🙄 But does anyone actually have proof that it is? The narrative on Tate was switched up pretty much instantaneously. Who could’ve ever seen that coming? After speaking against Taylor? gasp. What people are saying is heinous and the biggest point of contention is now his alleged third marriage and apparently he cheated on his first wife to be with Taylor. Except there’s no actual proof. The best I’ve gotten is this comment on tik tok about a mysterious cousin of the wife in stephwithdadeets comments. True? Idk. I can’t find the comment though and “what reason would they have to lie?” 🤪

Other notable defamatory conspiracy theories and blatant lies after the switch up;

Tate is just in it for the money and always has been

I always had a bad feeling about him

I always knew he was evil

He is abusive towards the children

He’s been after Taylor since the beginning

Of course he’s doing this now after the Bachelorette petition was just created

Of course he’s doing this now after Taylor just got her felonies reduced to misdemeanors

Of course he’s doing this now that things with cru have been resolved in court

Him and Dakota have teamed up to steal her money and the kids

Tate was abusive and he’s the reason she goes crazy on Dakota

Tate was also cheating on Taylor

He just wants to control Taylor and ruin her life

And my personal favorite; everything liann said is true and I believe her because she never lies! 😂

Hey dad, my car is broken beyond repair.

Well, I was driving home from work and my car entered “limp mode.” I’ll be honest I live hand to mouth, paycheck to paycheck. I’ve been doing everything I can to save a little bit of money for school so I can get out of this cycle of eternal broke-ness. So of course my car breaks down. I’m very sure it will be my transmission and fixing it will not be an option because of the cost. So I’m looking online to buy a new (used) car. Anyway I’m embarrassed to say I’ve never purchased my own car and I have no idea what I’m doing. My mother purchased my broken one when I was 17, transferred it to me (sold it to me for $1) and I finished the payments; it’s been paid off for almost six years. I basically just sent the payments to the right person and that was it. We are not in contact anymore since about 2015 because she is a lot of things and none of them positive, my dad has been in and out of my life since birth and never for longer than a few months. So I’m not even sure what questions to ask you, let alone a car dealer or some random person on fb marketplace. Please just give me advice for dummies, common sense, things I should be looking for and to stay away from, etc. I have about $2k for a car, I have good credit and can afford a lower end car payment. I’m “see sawing” between; do I just buy a car off fb marketplace or something similar and pay out right knowing it wont be the most reliable but might get me through the next 6 months to 1 year, or do I go to a dealership and take on a car payment? I’m already broker than I’d like to be. Thank you dads!

The art of doing absolutely nothing (gta tv)

One of my favorite things to do in this game is absolutely nothing. I think any of us playing the remastered version have realized the road rage is next level. For whatever reason that peaked my curiosity probably more than it should and it’s changed the way I play the game (when I’m not doing missions.) Something I’ve noticed is the road rage makes it incredibly easy to sow chaos without having to do hardly anything at all and I’ve made it my mission to see just how far I can exploit this. Personally my end game is always a large or domino effect explosion, chaos but as ridiculous as possible or just a lot of easy money. A few easy ways to do this are; recruit a few gang members and stand on a street corner, leave a car in traffic, stand in traffic, sometimes even just stand around in the right place. If you’re feeling spunky, aim your weapon at someone, stand on someone’s hood and kick it, clip a few cars until you find a road rager and abandon your car in an inconvenient spot (like next to a cop.) I also highly recommend making an enemy of a taxi if you haven’t already because there is nothing quite like 10 taxis flying at your car from all directions while you watch nearby. This has netted me over $100,000 of passive money on this save for mostly just standing around and provides plenty of entertainment after a long day of work when I don’t feel like actively playing the game.

All of this to say; after hours of research I’ve finally found my absolute favorite spot. There is an apartment building next to the los santos forum overlooking the highway and beach where cars absolutely pile into the exact same parking spot relentlessly and seemingly endlessly, all at the same time?? And when the first batch has annihilated themselves the cycle just immediately starts again?? If this is a glitch or well known forgive me but I never want it to end. I think it perfectly encapsulates the ridiculousness of the road rage game mechanic. Because not only do you have npcs doing anything they can to get into this spot despite the other 8 npcs doing the exact same thing, they continuously rope other npcs who are just walking or driving by into their bullshit, and many of them are too happy to join in. So, I’ve convinced myself you all would like a compilation of some of my favorite moments, and explosions.

I would like to again reiterate this all happened while I stood by and watched and did nothing, I don’t even leave the barrier because it’s high enough to not get hit by cars and far enough way to not die in the explosions!

* AND before you come for me, yes I said $100,000 and yes I have a little over $40,000; I spent it of course.
