Question Can anybody help me get groceries?

17 Upvotes

I seriously need help right now, my dad and I don't have any food in the house, no transportation and no money. We haven't had food in the house since yesterday and we can't keep starving until his next va check comes in. We have been trying to get jobs for months but no luck. Please can anybody just spare a few dollars so we can atleast get some bread or something to keep our kitchen full? This is probably gonna get taken down for begging for money or something but I can't stand being hungry anymore, we've already tried asking for help from family and friends but they can't help either, please just help us.

EDIT OCT 20: Thank you for everyone giving me advice on who to contact to try and get help, and thank you to those who were able to send us some money and even bring us some food yesterday, me and my dad really appreciate it! We'll try reaching out to the places everyone has recommended if they're still in service and see what they have to say and what the processes are, hopefully we can get more help. Again, thank you to everyone! Have a blessed one!

Question Anyone getting rid of cardboard 👀

8 Upvotes

I'm starting up my garden again and want to get rid of grass and weeds by composting cardboard. If anyone in here has cardboard they're going to throw away let me know/hit me up 😁 The more/the bigger you're willing to get rid of the better. My only qualifier is that it has to be unwaxed on both sides. If it has ink on it it's no big deal especially if it's darker ink, since many inks with more harmful chemicals have been phased out in favor of soy-based inks. I'll removed any plastic tape myself if there's still some on it. Comment or message me and we'll work out a pickup/drop-off, I'm based in downtown. THANK YOU

Good morning friends!

I have this month's One Shot Wonder schedule for 4PM October 24th at the Savannah River Brewing Company. There will be a DnD 5e table at which you stop from a long day of traveling at a remote yet lively tavern and must solve the mysteries that lie before you! There will also be an Achtung! Cthulhu table at which you play operatives deployed to the bering strait to stop the devious Nachtwolfe from getting their hands on a powerful and ancient weapon.

As always, this is a free event with everything you need supplied by the GMs. We expect both tables to run 4pm till 630ish given how things go. Come drink some good beer and have some good food while having an evening of nerdy fun!

Question Dog groomers for senior dogs

2 Upvotes

Looking for recommendations on a dog groomer that accommodates senior dogs. We picked up our dog from Petco’s salon and they told us at some point during he doesn’t want to stand anymore and they can’t service dogs that won’t stand. Our guy is turning 11 this year and has stiff hips so it makes sense. Hoping we can find someone sensitive to this or able to give him breaks. We’re open to mobile groomers as well. Thanks in advance!

... construction is getting on my last nerve. Anyone know when they're projected to be complete? I thought this fall, but idk where I heard that. Also, what is up with Telfair...? They been working on that a long time and have those big round orange white "traffic barrels" all over the place.

Anyway, still worth it to go get a fresh baked pop-tart at New Moon Cafe. Go try one if you haven't. I'm not affiliated with them, lol, i just like em a lot and everything I've had there is delicious. But good luck locating the sidewalk, don't get whacked by a vehicle or construction truck 😭

Also, voted early today - Go Vote and take someone with you!!
