ATTN TUCSONSPAGS: HALP

[Rev. St. Syn, KSC (Ret.)]

In short, and as blunt as this may seem. Cait, sort your shit out. Rely on yourself to sort your shit out. You know damn well that you are the only person that will sort your shit out. Power to ya!

[LMNO]

May I suggest:

CONTACT Pittsburgh
24-hour suicide and crisis intervention hotline that is available for individuals that are suicidal, in emotional
distress, or in need of information and referrals.  Calls are answered by professionally trained volunteers that
provide supportive listening and referrals when necessary.  Services provided by CONTACT Pittsburgh are free,
anonymous, and confidential. CONTACT Pittsburgh Crisis and Suicide Hotline 412-820-4357 or
1-800-SUICIDE (Calls answered 24-hours/day, 7 days/week)

Also:  Every state including Pennsylvania, has 211.  You call them, tell them what services and information you are looking for and they will connect you with the proper resources.  There is certainly someone in Pittsburgh who can help connect Cait with her family or whatever assistance she really needs.  You should be able to dial this number on a payphone, or find a kind soul who will let you borrow their cell-phone or business phone.  

This is a better way to find help than relying on forum users.  

THIS.

Also, back story, I think Cait's parents put him in a gay re-education camp.  So... yeah.  Get safe, and get stable. 



THIS WOULD BE ONE OF THOSE TIMES TO SEEK OUT ORDER INSTEAD OF DISORDER.

Also, if you're looking for a job and/or shelter, you're going to have to stop looking like what society's standards would describe as a freak.  It's a hard fact, and it isn't fair, but it's the way it is.  Take the time to express your gender issues, etc, once you have a somewhat stable lifestyle (Though I'd advise you restrict it to off the clock).  If you want to survive in a grey world, you're going to have to learn to blend in when it is necessary to do so.

Or continue being a martyr to how unlucky you are and how unfair everything is.  Or go sailing off that bridge.

The choice is yours.

[LMNO]

On the off chance that Cait reads things literally,  DON'T KILL YOURSELF.

You're giving us vague and incomplete information. 


If it helps, pretend you're in a movie that takes place in the real world, and you're someone trying to communicate vital pieces of information to someone who can help.

What would you say that would communicate your needs in the most effective way?

[Doktor Howl]

Cait's been gone a while.  Either s/he jumped already, or she isn't going to.

[Freeky]

Libraries only let you use their internet service so long per day. I think Cait has used that time up.

Either way, i doubt we'll hear anything for a while.

I can't help it -- I have compassion, up to a point.

When someone is in the thick of a puddle of shit, I feel compelled to throw a line.  


It's up to them to clean themselves up later, though.

[Dysfunctional Cunt]

I know as a human being I should have some sympathy or empathy or something, but I just can't do it.  

Too many people on here have had serious serious problems and have managed to (for lack of a better phrase) pull on their big girl panties and fucking deal with the bullshit and move on from it.

Things are hard all over.  Everyone has problems.  Some of us have serious problems.  We deal with them as best we can.  

I'm more than willing to lend an ear or a shoulder, but I agree with Roger.....

My monkeysphere is full.  If it were you or RWHN or Richter or Kai or Suu, etc, yeah, I'd bend over backwards.  But to have someone who I've only spoken to a few times lay some shit on me like "You're my family and if you don't do for me, I'll kill myself" only pisses me off.

I'm not his/her family, and I don't respond to any form of extortion, emotional or otherwise.

THIS!!!

I don't know this person and I don't know they are really crazy or just trying to get someone to open their home to them so they can rob them blind.  Like Roger said if it were someone I know from here... 

[Doktor Howl]

I know as a human being I should have some sympathy or empathy or something, but I just can't do it.  

Let's boil it down:

1.  From everything s/he has posted, s/he is a he who dresses as a she, blatantly and yet not fabulously.

2.  He's fucked up every situation he's been in, due to psychological issues.

3.  He's now threatening suicide if his "Tucson family" doesn't give him - sight unseen - a place to stay, an actual address to pull up to and crash out at, jobless and all fucking weirded out.

Here's the problems with this:  Even if I cared, and I don't, I already scare the fucking neighbors to the point that I have to deal with the police on a frequent basis...So frequently, in fact, that I call them by their first names.  The last thing I need is to convince the police that my "hilarious weirdness" is veering off into "bad craziness", and suddenly their friendly stop-overs for coffee and a chat turn into something more sinister.

Also, I have two kids, one of each gender, and they see enough strange shit without having some psychologically damaged drag queen show up at my house, wanting to sleep on the couch.  Fuck that, they can get exposed to that shit in college, like everyone else.  Also, Cait has mentioned being locked up for assaulting someone.  That sort of shit around my kids?  Fuck that.

Ding!  Also, I just got badly burned trying to help someone out (Marcus and Kim, aka Von Melee and Nivek/Mayhem), so yeah, I won't be a sucker twice this year.

Explaining the midnight shattering of windows and flying dildoes to an amused cop is one thing.  Explaining that some random freak you let stay on your couch is robbing/assaulting the neighbors and scaring the VD scabs off the local children is another.

Local children have VD scabs?! Holy Fuck Tuscon is worse than I thought!!

[Kai]

Oh god fuck no, why now, why today.  

Cait, I can't interact with you anymore. I love yah, but you are just too nuts for me, and every day in your life makes my biggest dramatic disasters seem like a walk in the park.

But please, for goddsake don't jump and get yourself some help.

God to fucking fuckdamn. I'm going camping.

Tucson is Eris' Holy City.  That is all ye know, and all ye need know.
