Off My Chest

RULES:


I am looking for mods!


1. The "good" part of our community means we are pro-empathy and anti-harassment. However, we don't intend to make this a "safe space" where everyone has to be a saint. Sh*t happens, and life is messy. That's why we get things off our chests.

2. Bigotry is not allowed. That includes racism, sexism, ableism, homophobia, transphobia, xenophobia, and religiophobia. (If you want to vent about religion, that's fine; but religion is not inherently evil.)

3. Frustrated, venting, or angry posts are still welcome.

4. Posts and comments that bait, threaten, or incite harassment are not allowed.

5. If anyone offers mental, medical, or professional advice here, please remember to take it with a grain of salt. Seek out real professionals if needed.

6. Please put NSFW behind NSFW tags.

...kind of a bummer that I can't tell anyone in my family because half of them (including my parents) will look at me like an ATM whose job it is to set myself on fire in order to keep them warm.

Yep, that's why I bit the bullet and did the bulk payment on mine when I had the chance instead of reinvesting or spending the money elsewhere. They're structured in such a predatory way that, to me, it made sense to be rid of it.

I'm sorry to hear you're stuck with them for a while. I was too.

I would love to do that too, but im not able to save up enough for any of them. I looked into bankruptcy and that wouldnt resolve them. My best bet is for the world to end. I can't even unalive myself to get rid of them since the big ones have cosigners.
