META Following the Rules
I'd like to thank the active members of this community. Your vigilance and dedication help keep our sub safe. I saw some nasty comments today directed towards u/thevomitgirl and u/ATXbunnie. This is unacceptable and will not be tolerated in any way. I appreciate all of the heart and soul they put into this sub. It's up to all of us to keep this a safe place. The next time you see someone point out a rule, thank them for protecting this community. It's a thankless task that is very necessary considering the scammy nature of some Reddit users.

I love reddit and cannot figure out how to retrieve my old account. I don't often comment I usually just read reddit. So having to have karma points is causing me a problem. I am a single mother of a three year old and I'm pregnant (the new father who I was engaged too ghosted me w/ literally no explanation why). My mother's house was destroyed during Hurricane Laura, I have since been evacuated to New Orleans which was a nightmare of misinformation, fema is not giving me or my child any money since we lived in my mother's house even though we acted as our own household. The Red Cross feeds us everyday and there is apparently a resource center where we can get clothes, however I just found out it's only open from 10 to 2 on weekdays. We have only a few outfits and I've been wearing the same clothes for 4 days. I don't even have a car seat for my son to ride on busses and such because my car was stolen about 2 months before the storm with his car seat and many of our clothes. I was just informed by my mother that she isn't letting Noah and me return home even when her home is fixed, as fema did give her money for the repairs, my brother who is overseeing the repairs said he wouldn't fix her house if she let me go home. I have a bs in accounting and a bs in management but haven't been able to work since I was diagnosed w multiple autoimmune disorders many years ago. I am not receiving unemployment or any monies like most of my friends and relatives. I had been dumpster diving and refurbishing things and selling them in marketplace, losing my car however made that no longer a viable job. I know it's a lot to ask but is there anyway an exception can be made to the rules. Sincerely Julie Clair Aron JulieClair32
