Let's all be serious for a moment, I have a major problem. · 11:48pm Apr 17th, 2015
Who is ready for some truth bombs!? Okay, maybe not "truth" so much as shit I didn't tell you. Where to begin?
I have a lot of names across the internet. I write a lot of stories and I will be linking a lot of people here to see this message. Here are a few:

I'm also known as Tunderhill by some people I'm linking here.
Why do I have so many profiles and unfinished stories? On this site I just wanted to keep my porn writings and my serious writings separate. On every other site...well, frequently I'll go on fits and leave sites, threatening to never come back again. I usually calm down after about a week and realize I messed up. However, I already made too big of a scene and can't go back. So what is with me? Why do I do that? That is a long story and part of the problem I'm having right now.
A few years ago I was in a very serious traffic accident, some people will know what I'm talking about. I broke my pelvis rather badly. When I was immobile I started having problems, I don't know if it was the accident that triggered it or if I had some latent mental problems I wasn't aware of, but I started breaking down. Some of you probably notice that sometimes I'm calm and funny and other times I fly off the handle at the least little thing. My mood swings wildly from day to day. I'm on pills now that keep me even and I've got some pets so I'm largely in a better place now...mentally. However, some things have come up.
My job isn't too demanding on me, which is good, but it also doesn't pay much. My roommate is still struggling to get out of his student debt. Recently, one of my pets got really sick and needed help. I figured that since I saw a bunch of news articles on people giving all of their money to help injured animals I would start a Gofundme page and get some help. Apparently, his story wasn't sad enough and I got exactly $0, meaning I was going to have to pay for it myself. He's much better now, but I had to take out a loan to help him get there. On top of that, my insurance just got cancelled (not because of Obamacare, it was something else). Remember those pills that help keep me even? Well, without insurance they are $250 a bottle, and I need them. Because of my accident a long time ago I have systemic problems with my pelvis, in addition I've been put with the label of "emotionally unstable," all this means that any other insurance plan is going to charge me a fortune. That brings me to my current predicament. My roommate and I are about to be evicted. There really isn't much we can do. This leaves me with very few options. I could try to move back in with my parents, but I'm not sure they would let me (we don't really get along). We could try to find another roommate, but there really isn't any room and our landlord probably wouldn't allow it. I could move in with friends, but really my only friend is my roommate. That leads me to now. In order to pay bills I might have to sell things, like my books, my old gaming systems, my collection of pony stuff...and my computer. It's starting to get close to that. Right now I use a university library for the internet, but I don't think they would let me get away with using one of their computers. My computer is really nice and would probably net me at least $500. That's where it's getting to. So if a hiatus comes that might be what it is. I'm getting close to not having many options. I'd hate to give either of my pets away, but I may have to choose between them or the computer.
So in short, if I go dark I'll try to find another computer somewhere where I can update this. Otherwise I'm in deep.
Also, my friend decided to start a web show to see if he can drum up some money. I think he's kind of funny, but not everyone might. Anyway, if you can, go over to Youtube and watch the videos he has now (he's only got one right now). Keep in mind, if he isn't very good yet that it takes time to get good at this sort of thing. Share it with people you know and maybe he can make a few dollars and that could go to the rent. He's here:

By the way, that cat he uses is actually a cat we share. Her name's Misty. If we move out I'm not sure what we'll do with her. :/
That's horrible, i myself currently am unable to donate, and i doubt many here are unable to aswell, HOWEVER! ive been on a few social apps recently and apparantly we are in a community that is reputable for helping travellers with road trips, as in letting them stay with them for a week orso until they move on, maybe you can find someone closeby like that in the fandom?
I'm sure a lot of people wouldn't mind giving you and possibly your roomate a couch to stay on, especially with how awesome this community is...(atleast from my experience)
EDIT: Oh, and also: I wish upi and your roomate the best of luck! you both certainly deserve some good fortune right now...
