peach eating vagus nerve cultist of the house of tool ape

I've only been working 32 hours a week, because working a full 40 hours exacerbates the nerve damage in my leg. Just thinking about it makes little pain tingles run down my thigh (or maybe it's because I've been walking more this weekend than I have been the last few months). But an extra day each week is going to be an extra ~$500/month (before taxes ;=;), which I'll really need to pay bills and support minibug when she gets here. I'm the only one in the polycule who can hold down a job, it seems (not that the other girls haven't been trying). I'm the biggest and the strongest, so I can put up with things they can't (like being taken into a room and not allowed to leaving until you sign resignation paperwork, or being harassed by men on your walk to work (things that happened to two of the girls)). I'm the biggest and the strongest, so that means I can do anything, even pushing past my limits to secure a home for my girls. I have to do this because I'm the only one who can.

So I'll just harden myself against the pain, and find some way to minimize it like I did for my foot pain. I shouldn't really be able to walk, but I can because I can make it not hurt as bad, because I'm the strongest. I'll just overcome all my disabilities and turn myself into a goddess just to make sure my girls have a place to sleep at the end of the day. It'll be easy, all I have to do is go a little more insane. What could possibly go wrong?

Having said all that, if anyone wants to send me some money to offset the cost of getting rid of Frog's horrible balls, here's a paypal link. I uh, can't afford toilet paper and I'm out. I'm also not 100% sure I'll have enough for rent when I get paid, because it costs $380 to get a cat neutered in this city >.<

Pls don't hurt yourself pal! I don't have any money to send but I really think you gotta discuss this with the rest of your polycule and maybe some of them could get temp jobs just to support for the time being or commissions or something, it's really important you look after your leg you don't want it to get too bad

I appreciate your concern, but they're already looking for work. All but one of the girls have been looking for work (and the one who isn't legally can't right now), and none of them live with me so they have to worry about their own costs right now. 3 of them have had jobs recently, one was a seasonal job through December, one got fired because retail is garbage, and one quit because of the harassment I mentioned making her feel unsafe.

When they can get stable jobs and help me out, I'll go back to what I can handle. But for now I don't think I have a choice. Don't worry about me too much though, I really am the biggest and the strongest, I can do anything ok
