I'm uhhhh buccaneer

They suck so much

Freedom of speech should not extend to foreign adversaries. Give me the ability to geoblock social media just like I can with my router at home. Accurately label any domestic sources that are relaying this disinformation as well so I can block them too.

I'd love to see those Hexbears have an answer for this!

They are two cats: a boy and a girl. They are in good health and have basic feeding requirements. No medications. No history of aggression towards people (boy cat has been territorial around other cats besides his sister).

I'm reposting this hoping it gets different eyes this time, and also because a week has passed and I'm starting to panic. I'm basically planning on being homeless on the 31st.

Coming on 3 weeks ago now, I was illegally evicted from my apartment by my roommate changing the locks while I was away. I've been living in motels and trying to talk to lawyers since. My savings are burning fast and I just can't afford to stay in temporary housing like this. In a week I'm not going to have this hotel room anymore. And I don't know what comes after that. I don't know what I'm doing. I just want to know that my cats are going to be safe and we aren't saying goodbye right now because of this. I want the chance to fix my life and still have my family at the end.

I got kicked out of a situation where I was explicitly told it was okay for me to be there while working on a tech support certification. Now I need to find a home and a job at the same time (how do you even do that?? Where do you look??) and at the same time try to sue the shit out of the guy who did this to me. I just can't afford pet friendly hotels anymore even with the promise of being paid back eventually by the lawsuit. My savings are shredded. I can cope with living in my car for a while but my cats can't. I can't deal with all of this at once on my own. I honestly need help.

"Handy Andy" in Vancouver Washington is a CONVENIENCE (fixed) store that changed hands to a new owner recently. If you look at the reviews from before the change, you'll notice that they're mostly glowing and refer to the wonderful employees, many by name.

Well all those employees are now fired. The new management got rid of all of the non-white employees and replaced them with family members.

Here's my friend in their own words recounting their interaction with the new owner:

They are two cats: a boy and a girl. They are in good health and have basic feeding requirements. No medications. No history of aggression towards people (boy cat has been territorial around other cats besides his sister).

I just had a lawyer tell me that I should abandon hope of being put back into my apartment after my roommate illegally evicted me. That means I have to reckon with finding a job and a place at the same time. And I just don't believe it's going to work out right away such that my cats and I can stay together in motel rooms until it's all straight. I promised them that everything would be okay and we'd all be together in the end.

There are long term boarding places around that will take them for as much as rent is for a 2 bedroom apartment around here. If I have to be homeless for a while to make sure they're safe that's what I'll do.

This isn't happening immediately, I don't think. Although probably sooner rather than later as I wrap my brain around the new situation. I just want to know that they have somewhere to go that isn't a pound or a new 'forever home' where I'll never see them again. They're all I have anymore.

I'm willing to give more details in the comments or DMs.

I lied to them and said I had one cat because after I paid for the stay I found out they had hidden a one pet policy in the fine print. I have two cats. And now I learn that because I told them I have a cat in the first place they insist (fine print!) on 'room service' coming in my room at least every other day to inspect seems like. How do I deal with this? If anyone has any experience doing something like this or even just has done the inspection thing with a motel before it would help to know how the mechanics of the interaction will go. I waved them off until tomorrow.

Some background: I'm with my cats staying in motels medium-term because of a huge fucking drama you can check my post history for pieces of. My roommate declared that I had moved out on my behalf when I went to take care of my sick friend with cancer. When I got back they refused me entry and changed the locks. I haven't even been able to get a legal response going because of how much I'm freaking out and running around putting out fires like this. My cats were in the apartment until a couple days ago when he was threatening to release them because I had 'abandoned' them.

I can't fucking deal with this. How do I hide one of my cats so they only see the other?? All I have is a car. Do I have to put one in the fucking trunk and drive to the other side of the parking lot and hope they don't meow too loud so someone tries to break them out?? I just got my babies safe with me and now I have to traumatize them 4 times a week with some underhanded shit?? Fuck my life for real. Fuck.

And it's not like I can just sneak them out the back to do that, either! It's a fucking motel! The cleaners are going to be going from room to room outside. Maybe swaddle one of them so I can sneak them out in a fucking backpack? I fucking hate every idea I come up with.

edit: I've made arrangements to have one of them at a pet sitter for a few hours during the day tomorrow. I guess this is going to be the plan until my reservation is over. Then I'll find one this doesn't happen at.

I probably need more help than this but it's the first thing on my mind since I'm gonna be walking to the grocery store in the next 20 minutes
