I’m a 21 year old who was formerly in college and is now working full time because of a combination of circumstances, grades, grandma having a stroke and a bunch of other shit.
Anyway, I don’t want to take the damn booster, and mom is literally making me walk home because she doesn’t wanna be in the same car as me (warning sign I should’ve noticed a while ago, as she threatened to kick me out if I didn’t take the Pfizer jabs), and now I think I’m gonna get kicked out of my house.
Right now I don’t have much to my name, if anything at all (except about 1k worth of Yugioh cards) and I also have debt because of me being an idiot with other shit, but I’m on the way to paying the debt off. If I do get kicked out, what should I do first? Right now I’m trying to see if any of my friends could take me in, and I’d be able to pay rent if they’d charge, but it just feels like hell, knowing my mom is a Branch Covidian, even though she’s an RN.
Dude this is heartbreaking to hear. A mother turning against own child over a booster shot is beyond sick shit. I am truly sorry you are in this position.
You should reach out to your friends and see if anyone of them will let you stay at their place for a while at least so you have time to make future plans.
Does your job pay decently enough so you can live on your own?
I hope things ultimately work out for you.
If I start being mad frugal, and I sell all the cards I’m not actively using, looking at apartments right now, I have enough money to pay rent for about six months or so (I live in SC, so rent is pretty damn cheap). The biggest thing for me is that I don’t own a car, so I need to find an apartment right next to my job (which there are, I just can’t find the prices for them right now).
I don't know too much about SC but you might want to look into seeing if you can use public transit to commute from an affordable apartment to your job.
This is not really doable in SC. We don't have public transit.
Do you have any options for alternative transport as a temporary thing (for example, a bike or electric scooter)? Or, failing that, maybe a used car?
You can always rebuy the cards again once you're on more solid footing for such things. Hang on to a couple of the topmost oldies that stand to go way up if the game resurges like MtG did, and sell off the entire rest of them. Yes; even your current decks. There's lots of cheap alternative hobbies to get you through what is going to a lot of hard work and harder financial choices in the upcoming couple of years, and even a small cash cushion going in will allow you to make much smarter ones.
Sometimes when your in a messed up situation is when you learn the best. There will be many more, welcome to manhood. Your mom is hooked in the fear porn
If your work is within 5 miles from your home then cycling is an option.
Assuming she lives long enough to regret the decision. If she's boosting every six months as part of the VaaS (vaccines as a service) mandate, she may not be around long enough to shed her immaturity and establish a sense of regret.
/u/redman012 I'm with Ohdeerlordman, OP.
Your student loan debt should still be deferred (I think) until January. If not, you need to ask them to see if you can set yourself up with an Income-Based Repayment plan. Keep doing your taxes, and they'll likely figure out a plan to keep you paying at a lower income level whenever your employment status changes. If you get a new job, you don't have to tell them that until you need to re-authorize your IBR.
I've literally done this thing before. Living out of your car is a lot easier than you think. Your biggest issue is going to be security, but I'll get into that in a minute.
First, have a car. If you are going to be homeless, have a car, it's the only option. A working car is infinitely better than a good home with no car. And no car & no home is a disaster. Have a car, take care of it, it's your life line.
Second, get a portable battery jumper from Walmart. Yes the basic one is $150, the better one is $300, doesn't matter, bite the bullet. Fucking trust me on this. You CAN NOT rely on strangers to help you when your car takes a shit.
Third, if you live in a snowy area: Get yourself a sleeping system. It's October so don't wait on this. You're gonna sleep in the car, and a good sleeping system will work really well. You might have to defrost your car a bit because it will fog up.
Fourth, although fast food is shit for your health, you can normally customize how to build healthy and economic food from fast-food joints. Your primary goal is to use fast-food joints for cooked hot food, for meat, and for pleasantries.
Fifth, you need to find a location to sleep in your car. DO NOT GO TO ANY KNOWN HOMELESS CAMPS. You don't want that shit, and those people will rob you. You need to find commercial parking lots where they are probably recorded but no one gives a shit. Even if the cops regularly patrol the area, that's more of a deterrant for criminals than it is for you. The cops, should you encounter them, will probably understand your predicament so long as a) you're not drunk, b) you're not high, c) you're clean. The cops deal with poor people all time that are poor because they are awful people. If you show them that you are taking care of yourself to stop being poor, they will likely cut you a break because they can physically tell that you're not just being a vagrant because you're an asshole. Just tell them you're just trying to sleep and stay out of trouble. For a sleeping location I recommend anywhere where you see truckers parking and sleeping. You're both doing the same shit for the same reason. This typically means something like a Wal-Mart due to the large parking lots, video surveillance (out to a point), and occasional police presence, making it relatively safe.
Sixth, treat the grocery stores as your refrigerator. Exploit your car to travel to different grocery stores to find out what products they offer to pull people into the store. Cheap fresh fruits and vegetables are often a good way to pull people into some stores to buy more expensive goods. If you figure out which stores are offering the good prices for which products, you can basically go to the grocery store every day or every other day and save money.
Seventh, as Ohdeerlordman suggested, a gym membership with shower is a really good idea. Consider that part of your budget. There are SOME fast food places that will allow you to use the public bathroom. You might need that to shit and shave in the morning BUT DO NOT ABUSE THIS. They hate it when vagrants fuck up the bathroom, so respect their shit to a T. Vary up how often you go in in the morning, and make sure it's cleaner then when you left it. Wet wipes may also be necessary if you can't shower weekly.
Eighth, make friends and have social groups. You're actually going to need to build some social relationships so you can occasionally sleep on a couch. Offer to do dishes and shit for your friends to show that it would be okay for them to offer you a room for a while. Don't pressure them, think about how they might be willing to invite you in. DO NOT be a burden on them.
Nineth: Do not cook in your car, and do not stay in front of the same house all the time. There is a reason why cities ban people from living in their cars effectively. Retards will literally park their cars in front of people's houses and cook entire meals on hot pots. Don't do that dumb shit, it just pisses people off and attracts unwanted police attention.
Tenth: If you live in a snowy or cold area, please consider getting an extra blanket, and some warming socks. If you don't have enough room in your car to fully elevate your feet, they are going to be very cold because your car's metal floor will get fucking ice cold during the night, and won't warm up for shit.
Consider also having an extension cable if you need some length to charge something. And like OC said, save your money. You'll be living under your means for sure.
It’s actually not student loan debt (mom paid for what my scholarship didn’t cover), it’s $2.3k of card debt from me being a dumbass. Right now I’m just stuck taking Uber to and from work (don’t own a car and not kicked out yet), but I’ve eliminated all subscriptions so the only charges I’ll have are my Uber rides and my gym membership, as I can take food to work to eat. Thanks for the advice, but once I get my car, I’ll probably start living out of it for sure.
I would seriously consider treating this a bit like a game. I'll explain in a minute.
You may want to talk to your creditors directly and see if you can arrange a payment plan with them. Vast majority of the time, your creditors will probably take 30% off your principle and interest if you intend to actually pay them. $2,300 is not the worst believe it or not.
The Credit Cards are not gonna really help you out, tbh. Once you start playing that game, you'll get buried.
For Cellphones, whatever you've got now, I'd advise you to sell that shit for money and pick up something from Ting. The good thing about their plans is that you can actually bring it below what you would pay for Pay-As-You-Go phones. That $10 a month plan is no frills, but if you're gonna stick to a phone for work and little else, it's the best you're gonna do. Walmart won't sell you anything less than $35 a month which will eat up the costs very badly for a year.
Depending on where you live, a cheap, used, car can cost anywhere between $500 - $1000. I suggest looking for Toyota and Kia. They are pretty reliable so that will keep the maintenance cost down.
Here's what I mean by treating this a bit like a game:
Play it like "Recettear"
You need to focus on what you have to pay down, and how you have to get money. Getting money needs to be a primary focus. That means, if you haven't noticed by now, living it a little rough and working your ass off to save money.
Now, the REASON you are saving money is not to have it. The reason you are saving money is so you can SPEND IT BETTER. In economics, this is called "Capital Investment". You are investing your savings into a mechanism that will make it easier to produce more wealth.
You will have to budget your time and efforts carefully, and aggressively. Unfortunately, this means you will have to take significant responsibility for yourself, and abandon a few luxuries, probably for several months while you work at this.
Your primary objective is to use your savings to move yourself up into the next segment of society so that you don't have to work as hard, while getting more money.
Start budgeting, really budgeting, right now what you can afford. You already have a job, so you know how much money you are taking in. DO NOT spend more than 80% of your income. If you're genuinely poor, you might need every penny so fuck all your subscriptions to Hulu and shit in the taint. You might have to go the other way and realize that you can save 80% of your income instead of spending it. And again, why are you saving? To spend it later on something that will make working harder, for more, easier.
If you're working for $7.50 an hour, it's going to be rough to get money for a car. Do whatever you can to get overtime, or additional income through some side-hustles for anyone who can pay you. If you live near a sports arena, I shit you not, consider selling bottled water for cash. I met a man in Baltimore who was selling "Ice Cold Water! Just one dollar!" near a convention center. He was walking out with hundreds of dollars because of the excellent location. Though, be careful that panhandling isn't illegal where you are at. Look that shit up now. Hell, honestly begging for cash or even a job will still get you some work. Look for manual labor if possible, they'll always accept people.
Your purpose is NOT to work at these places forever. It's to get you enough savings to get that car. You don't even need the greatest car in the world. A $500 car to get you to and from work is good enough. You already mentioned you are taking an Uber. What the fuck do you think they are doing? Yup. Take your car, and do the same shit. Moving people or food around in addition to your working day. Yes, I am telling you to work 60 hours a week.
Yes, your car will break down, plan for that. That's what the savings are for. Expect that your $500 car won't last a year, or if it does, it's because you put money into repairing it. You need to know that you're going to be saving $300 for that new alternator before it blows. Here's the game part: you can flip the car for a bit more money than you got it for. If you took care of the car, cleaned it up a bit, and got some stuff working, you might be able to sell it for slightly more than you bought it for. Just try not to sink too much money into it. You're going to move from a $500 car, to a $1000 car. Now, if you're starting off really low, you might have to trade cars, sell the car for junk and just save to buy a new $600 car instead of paying for the $500 repair cost. But, what would it really take for you to put a few repairs into the car, clean it up nice, and flip it for $1500 ? People aren't expecting much for $1,000, and just a good external and internal cleaning to the right seller would probably do the trick. Put the labor in to get the extra cash that others won't put in. That goes into your savings to go into the next upgrade.
You're going to do this with everything, including you. You're putting experience into both work and your side hustle. Keep your resume going, even after you get a job. We're in a labor shortage, that's great for you. Every time someone offers you a job with a slight pay increase at these low level jobs, take it. Negotiate for higher pay. If you work at Walmart, put your resume over to Kroger, Target, Giant Eagle, Beulers, whatever. Stay competitive. Stay Clean. Look Presentable. Show everyone that people want your work. Confidence and aggression.
As you learn the ropes with your side hustle, you'll get better at identifying the key markets and money making opportunities. I have a co-worker that makes $20 /hr. She still does Uber Eats on the side because she can make more in a weekend than she can during the week because she's aware of the opportunities to make good money. Hell, if you play guitar, put that shit on the street or the park for donations. People will give you a couple bucks, it will add up. Work experience is where the real money is. And don't think your side hustle is JUST a side hustle. If you get really good at cleaning cars, and Target (you moved up from Walmart) isn't paying you enough, add that shit into your resume and put an application in to a detailing place or a mechanics place. Hell, put pictures in if needed. Suddenly your side hustle is now your primary. Then, use your old primary as a side hustle, or get a new one.
As you save money, it will be easier to keep paying off your stupid debts regularly (don't necessarily pay them off all at once unless you're sure it won't strike you down later by hurting your savings too much). But as you save, you upgrade your situation. Once you've got a reliable car, you can probably move out of your car and into a trailer park. No, that wasn't a joke. That's you're next step up. Don't fucking burden yourself with a $20,000 lease fool. The trailer parks will accept anyone that isn't trash. If you show that you have gainful employment and don't start fights, no one will give a shit. If you haven't involved yourself in social clubs already and been making friends (which always gives you opportunities), consider making friends with your neighbors there too. Again: don't think you're here forever. Think about how you're going to make this place better than when you found it, and where you are going next. Keep your planning to 6 months to 1 year in the future and keep sticking to it.
Keep saving and upgrading aggressively and you'll probably have your own house within 5 years. The hardest part is going to be this first year in the car because you won't know what to expect and you'll be scared. You'll also have to rid yourself of a lot of bad habits, and probably work pretty damn hard to get yourself up to the next step. You'll know when you can finally settle back down to 40 hour or so work weeks. The good news for that first year is that everything is your fault. Everything you do right brings you your reward. Everything you do wrong is because you failed to do the thing. The more responsibility to take, the more ownership over yourself you have, and the more you can improve your position.
For that first year out of your car, I forgot to mention: consider going to the public library for entertainment. Check out some of their books if nothing else. You might be able to use their internet for emails and shitposting here (before they ban it) if you can't use your phone.
STAY AWAY FROM VICE. This is what kills poor people the most, and keeps them poor. Drugs, alcohol, porn, cigarettes, strippers. Worse: combining any of the above. I promise you it's not worth your future. It makes everything so much worse, and is outrageously expensive.
Go forth young one, keep us appraised. I believe in you. Ask us for more advice if you think we can help.

Great song sampling the movie.
Update: I got a friend to drive me home, and mom basically told me what’s going to happen.
Until I decide to get a booster (and I have to have her drive me and have her see me get the third jab), I’m not allowed to use her car nor my stepdad’s car to get to work. For now, I’m going to cancel all my online subscriptions so I can save my money for ride services to and from work, stop eating out and save everything I don’t use on ride services, until I get enough money for a car and at least a year of insurance, then go from there. I should probably just save for a security deposit and six months of rent at the apartment building that’s closest to my job (literally a 5 minute walk from the apartment to my job), but I want the freedom of a car, but if the apartment is a better goal, then I’ll do that. But I know for a fact the way things are, I’m not getting a third COVID jab, not over my dead body.
a booster? so it's not that you haven't had any shots it's just a booster? crazy.
Man first I respect your resolve hugely. Gives me encouragement. These are tough decisions but I believe you’ll come out on the other side as stronger man with greater self respect than most today.
You could try to pursue a different vocation, like some form of work-from-home. I don't know what your expenses are living with your mom. Be prepared for her to gradually turn the screws on you after she realizes you aren't going to give in.
You largely sound like you have some sound strategies to pursue. I recommend still engaging your friends to negotiate some form of cooperation.
I have memory of a YouTube channel called "The Wolfe pit" that was all about eating on an extreme budget. Talking like feed a family of 4 on $5 budget. Hopefully it doesn't get that bad but its worth having in your pocket.
Checking with friends is a good start, but if none of them can hook you up you'll need to start making other plans.
General tips:
Do you have a vehicle of your own? If so, you can potentially live out of that. It won't be pretty, but it's do-able.
If you're lacking friends to crash at or a vehicle, consider looking for a shelter. Check to see if there is a group for shelter advocating in your area, as they may be able to hook you up with a place to stay.
Is there something like a UPS Store in your area? You can rent a mailbox there that will actually get you a physical address instead of a PO Box. It'll get you the ability to claim that as a residence location if you need to change address, as well as being able to receive packages for you.
Personal hygiene should not be neglected during any time where you might be without residence. Again, if your friends can't give you a place to grab a shower, consider signing up for a cheap gym membership. In addition to the ability to work out helping keep your mind straight, having a place to grab a shower and get cleaned up is amazingly uplifting.
Do you pay for your own cell phone? If not, and you can't afford to take over your line from your parents' contract, get a prepaid unit. You can get decent low- to mid-range prepaid smartphones these days for under $200. Wifi is fairly ubiquitous, so with any luck you won't be burning through your data allotment to maintain contact via the Internet.
Best of luck on safely getting away from your Cult of Vaxx mom. As much as it sucks to have to potentially leave family behind for ideological reasons, remember that they're the ones being illogical in this situation. With any luck they'll eventually come around.
Sell your Cards brother. It is time to put aside the things of a child and tackle the challenges of manhood.
I don’t know much about it but I imagine it’s a social thing. Probably kind of like asking someone in pool league to sell his cue.
You can get a nice pool cue for a couple hundred bucks, and then you're good on pool cues for the rest of your life as long as you treat it well.
Yu-gi-oh or other CCGs, on the other hand, are worthless pieces of cardboard that will be continually downgraded by the release of newer, better worthless pieces of cardboard and by changes in the tournament rules banning your old worthless pieces of cardboard.
Completely agree. Sell any childish, or entertainment toy/device/etc.
(Although is keep a phone for communication)
Well said.
There's nothing "childish" about having harmless hobbies or indulging reasonably in entertainment to maintain a sense of existential value.
Shedding "childish" or "entertainment" aspects of your life just so you can be a wage-slave day in and day out for the State is neither mature nor healthy. It's not like it benefits you anything in the long run other than a monetary safety net so you can continue to be plugged into the financial burdens of the system when you're no longer capable of physically being a wage-slave.
As you said, it's all about finding peace in the balance of things.
In life sure, not in emergency mode lol His mom is gonna kick him out and he has no money. Keeping toys at a time like this is ridiculous advice. If you wanna game/play yugioh/etc do it when you can afford it.
Edit: wow people are literally condoning keeping yugioh cards while on the verge of being thrown out of a house. Wtf....yeah maybe you can use them for a fire to keep warm on the streets!
Move to Seattle, pitch a tent on the sidewalk, and wait for the outreach workers to come along offering housing for the homeless. That's the way we do it here.
You'll qualify for state medical care, EBT, transit pass, and subsidized housing. Right now job openings are begging for workers everywhere, nothing but 'Help Wanted' signs wherever you look.
I can't understand a mom who would abandon her child like that, it's unnatural and I'm truly sorry it's happening to you.
99% of middle aged women arent individuals. They are sensory organs attached to social media and their former conciousness has been consumed by the mainstream narrative.
They cant go against what their media masters tell them anymore than your finger can rebel when you want to pick your nose.
Is your father in the picture? If so appeal to him to grow some balls and get his wife under control
Unfortunately my biological dad left a while ago and lives in NY (I still talk to him), and my stepdad is a whipped Haitian immigrant (like my mom) who’s whipped because he was caught talking to other women.
Tough. Well dont be too proud to hit up bio dad for money if that will help you make it.
Can you ask to live with your dad in New York?
Asking to go to NY as one of the untervaxxen is a terrible idea, unless he can NEET it up at his father's.
I'm here waiting on the shoe to drop at my job. If I wasn't a retard who just bought a house I'd have been out of this state, but now I'm stuck hoping it'll blow over
It really sucks that your parents are like that. Can't really say much else there.
The current used car market is a bubble. Get an apartment within walking distance, hold off on the car until the market crashes. Once you have a place to live, prioritize getting rid of the debt first, before anything else. The quicker the better, since it ties you down and the sooner you pay it off the less interest is added.
I would suggest finishing college, but if you are not interested in finishing college, try trade school. Having a skill, whether its academic or physical, will make a huge difference for your income both immediately and in the future.
Also go to the gym regularly. Gym memberships are cheap and its a good way to work off stress and improve your self esteem.
If you can't find a friend to take you in, normally I'd suggest finding a cheap room for rent in a large house with 4 or 5 people but with Covid it might be a big hassle navigating through the bullshit.
Still I think that's your best option. Hopefully you'll only have to live there for 6-12 months and then you can get your own apartment.
What kind of job do you have? Is the money decent?
If I was in your position this is exactly what I would do step by step within the month of October...
All in all you can realistically get a safe room and a good spot with $1000-$1500 upfront, if not less. I moved to Florida last year and found a room for $600 with no deposit that I lived at for a few months as I got settled and got a job and found a better place. So be as frugal as you can.
Don’t get hung up finding a “forever” replacement now, or a bougie place. Or a car. Your goal now is to become self sufficient responsibly.
Once you have the place, your goal should just be to save money and go in Monk mode. Work overtime if or when possible. And that way if the place doesn’t turn out great you’ll be on better footing to take your time and move out normally.
My advice, keep cost of housing as low as possible, its better to live in a cubicle for a few years and save money for a car and emergencies. Any xtra spent on housing is wasted money right now. If someones mom will rent u a room at low cost, that would b a great opportunity, just follow every house rule and do a few xtra chores to help so she won't regret it. And save money. If that doesnt work out, you can always move out again later. Very sorry this happened to u but you may look back on this and realize escaping was a best movefor you.
I think your best option is to try and flip your mom. It will repair your relationship and you can stay living with her.
I think there's numerous things you could try. Have a conversation with a friend "No way, they collapsed....How long after getting the vaccine? Oh shit they were rushed to the ER! They don't know if they will make it?!".
Put some Vaers stats all around the house for side effects. There's also one of those consent forms that some red piller sent to a bunch of schools. Maybe you could try making one of those.
TL;DR Plan A: make sure she knows just how dangerous the side effects are. She might be begging you to not get it.
If you present facts that recently-vaccinated 20 year olds don't need boosters (yet) or it's fairly dangerous to young men then you're basically calling her stupid and uninformed and she can't admit that about herself.
I think the way to go is to convince her that everybody else got duped as well, that she's not stupid for falling for the fear porn, and that she's a smart person for being able to get out of the cult.
For instance, take this recent poll:
https://news.gallup.com/opinion/gallup/354938/adults-estimates-covid-hospitalization-risk.aspx
Showing that half of democrats believe risk is 50% or higher, when actually it's <1%. How did those people (not her, even though it is her) get it so wrong? Exaggerate things by 50x and when she says that's crazy point out that's how much most democrats (but not her) are wrong about covid.
However you go about it, the point is to not directly put her in the group you are criticizing. Those people are idiots, not you're an idiot mom.
Are boosters even approved for healthy young people? I thought it was just 65+?
Honestly probably the best thing that will ever happen to you. Hopefully you can couch surf until you can find a place, build up some cash, and move in with roommates to an apartment or house.
Hardship makes you stronger.
Don't sweat it. Focus on finding a job first and a place to stay. See if you can get someone to give you a ride to work and help them pay for gas in exchange. Save until you can buy your own vehicle. At that point all you need to do is build off of your success.
A good strategy is to save 10-15% of your paycheck. Maybe have a main bank account and a savings account, so that you won't be tempted to touch it. Let it build up and over time you will either see an emergency, or an opportunity that you can take advantage of. (and obviously, pay off your debt first)
Remember, struggle is good. You will build character and become tougher than you ever thought possible. Don't resent your mother. Forgive her for her blindness and wish her well. You will find out in the end that this was the best thing that could ever have happened to you. :)
This is the best time this could have happened, since people are struggling to find good workers. You will do well.
What in the absolute fuck!? I am so sorry your mother is that way.
In a similar boat, but unfortunately I have too much shit to lose. :( I really do envy minimalists sometimes.
Well, if you're going to be at odds with your family either way, you could realistically go anywhere.
There are a lot of places hiring now that will pay top dollar, especially physical work. Spread your net wide and see what you can get. You're young and have no physical obligations.
If you're smart and hard working it shouldn't be hard to find a job that will pay for decent housing, a vehicle, and savings.
Right now I’m getting paid 11 dollars an hour in SC, and while I know there are jobs around me that do pay more, I just need to find them, as I’m not currently in school right now. This is the best time for me to figure out my life anyways.
She's not your mother anymore. I'm sorry. She may look like her, may sound like her, may have the same favorite flavor of ice cream, but don't be fooled. Your mother is a zombie
I have the majority of my family on the other side of the country and all of them have become undead
This would most likely be a very long shot in this case, but I would see if she is willing to support you financially, at least a little bit. If it came down to her kicking you out, do everything you need to to find a place to live and get a job to sustain yourself, but also see if she is willing to help out. Be very diplomatic and explain your reasoning for not getting the vaccine and that you will respect her wishes as ruler of the house, and ask if she can help you pay for your own place until you get back on your feet. Go into the conversation with zero the expectation that she will help you in anyway, that should help with any feeling of resentment. It doesn't hurt to simply ask but again, don't expect anything.
Move to Florida, find job, enjoy life away from toxic people.
If your debt is serious, talk to your creditor and see if you can reduce payments (or even reduce the total). They would prefer to still get something than nothing at all if you go bankrupt. Going bankrupt would also cut off many options, not only in being able to acquire beneficial debt in the future, but a bad credit rating may deny you housing rentals and utilities. Credit cards are also used to get hotels, or rent tools you may use for work. Never go pay day loans, they take a heavy cut and trap people for life. Make sure that future debt is beneficial debt when possible (like loaning to buy if it's cheaper than renting over the life of your use + being able to sell)
If you have a good job, keep it. If you start a side company you can deduct expenses that may also be useful external to the company, like a computer or phone. You need to actually try to make money as a company if you do this, so don't do it if you're not serious. Also make sure to pay your taxes, bad things happen if you don't.
Just sell your Yugi OH cards, pack up your things and move out for a month.
Once your mother realizes she's the one who needs you and not the other way around she'll change her tune.
Do you really want to lose your home to make what amounts to a very small political statement against mandatory jabs?
Or are you genuinely more afraid of the vaccine than homelessness (which seems insane, you must be well beyond reasonable skepticism/criticism and deep into conspiracy theories)?
Comment Reported for: Rule 12 - Falsehoods
Comment Approved: That's not what this rule is for.
Why does she want you to get the vaccine, and why do you refuse? If she believes it's what is good for you and you believe that given your age you are at greater risk of heart problems from the vaccine than you are of getting ill from COVID, you should make the effort to reason with her, because one of you is working from false assumptions.
What kind of bullshit is this? He doesn't need a reason to refuse the vaccine, and she has no reason to control what he puts in his body. She is being unreasonable. There is no reasoning with anyone who thinks they can control your own body. Sorry OP but you're mom can get fuck off. There is no excuse for this kind of trespass.
You’re a fucking idiot
Because I don't reject a cheap opportunity to defuse the situation, and want him to be prepared to argue his case? If his mother drives him out of the household, everyone is worse off. It is worth the attempt to make her see reason.
Having full-time employment sorts puts the kibosh on that theory friend
