gay tomcat primitive's move is done

Oh my.

I went to the lounge to see what's happening.

Apparently the tomcat primitive wrote this before the news broke.

The move is done...

I can't thank people enough who came out here to move me into my new place. JennaLaw, JonnyBlitz, La LionessPriyanka, Rockit, and friends from Buffalo who came down to help. It was a hell of a lot of work.

Unfortunately, a bunch of friends who said they would help bailed out, and that made things harder for the people who did show up to help. It was a lot of work, and I couldn't do anything to help.

Now, after all of that I'm going over the financials an I've entirely drained my 401k. It's empty. I'm now draining my IRA, and it never had much in it even before the recent economic bust cut it in half. So I'll only be able to survive a few months on my IRA.

If my disability insurance and/or my social security don't come through in the next few months then the game is over. Both are past due. I should have had them by now. But the delays continue. If they don't get resolved in the next few I'll lose everything and end up homeless. I'll have absolutely no more resources to tap. Please keep your fingers crossed.

How long's Ma and Pa Kettle been in the White House?

I thought Pa Kettle was supposed to have taken care of this by now, everybody's financial woes?

1. Damn.

I've had my issues but at least I can still work and provide for myself...I hope your insurance comes through SOON. What an awful racket getting disability insurance is...

The tomcat primitive can still work and provide for himself.

6. It really is a racket.

It's a whole lot of paperwork...waiting...more paperwork...more waiting...

Then...eventually...they send you to a doctor.

Then...eventually...you hear that they want to send you to have your depression reviewed by somebody.  What depression? Just process my claim already.

Working for a living cures depression a lot better than pharmaceuticals.

And no chemical damage to the brain, either.

12. Holy shit! I hope she was able to get that overturned.
 
That really seems like some bureaucrat got a raise somewhere for coming up with nitpicking above and beyond the call of duty for that one.

2. I wish you well in the new place, Thom, and will certainly keep my fingers crossed though it makes it really hard to type.

I'm sorry I wasn't there to help - the commute from California is just a killer.

I know disability and social security can be a nerve-wracking wait - my brother recently went through this. I'm not sure how long it ended up taking but he did get it all squared away before he was completely out of funds and hopefully that will be the case with you too. You don't need that stress.

7. I am very glad it came through for your Brother.

I hope it comes through for me too.

If it doesn't then I'll be offline an in a shelter somewhere. I'm at the point of seriously considering that.

What is this, a pity-party?

I really hope this comes through on time. I really don't want to see the inside of a shelter again.

10. If it had been possible

I would have loved a chance to see you.

I would have felt guilty meeting you and then immediately putting you to work though.

5. Good luck, Thom.

It must be a huge relief to have the move over and done with. I'll keep thinking good thoughts for your insurance and SS payments soon. You do what you need to and then keep the faith...

13. I'm doing whatever I can. Unfortunately, most of what I can do is worry. And worrying isn't very productive.

I'm starting to think that the ability to light a bonfire on Skins's island should be cause for automatic disapproval of social security disability.  Posting takes intellectual effort, and if one has enough intellectual effort to post, one should be able to work for a living.

15. Hi Thomcat..

My Uncle is going through the same thing with his disability....how long ago did you apply for social security?

The tomcat primitive seems to have disappeared from this bonfire shortly before this; perhaps he got the news about the California Supreme Court.

Wait a minute... Thom is going to get disability for being depressed? I'm depressed that Dick Cheney isn't the President. And that I haven't gotten laid in over a year. Send me my crazy checks!!!!1111elevenone

Oh fer crissakes...he'll get all the back money from the time he filed and probably in time to roll it back into the IRA if he wants. My now deceased bil had to be on disability towards the end of his life. He got a sizable check for the back $$ fromt he time he filed to when it finally came through, so although this one is draining assets to live, he will be able to replace a large portion of that money if he is budgeting now to meet what he will be getting regularly. We are made of such feeble material anymore aren't we? Somehow I think my grandparents probably worked through aches and 'conditions' that people regularly file disability for. Seems to be a great portion of people treat this as their get out of work forever card these days. Not saying this is this primitive--kind of a side rant of mine.

Do you really think this DUmmy will replace those retirement funds? He'll see the big check as a bonus, and spend it all on the biggest bag of weed known to mankind. Then he will continue to complain how Boooosh stole his retirement.

No, I didn't expect it would get replaced. I think it's the setup to the inevitable, "Not only are all my own funds gone, but I also spent the back disability pay before I realized how 'little' I would get every week/month(however it is it is paid), now I have no money to pay my electric bill fundraiser"

I thought it would be pointing out the obvious that the money would be blown one way or the other.  :-)

Pawn everything you own, spend half on drugs and liquor and half on necessities, promise to pay off loan when you get paid. After getting paid, spend half on drugs and liquor, complain that kids have to be fed and why can't the government take them baths too, can't pay the pawn ticket off.... life is so hard... its so unfair that you can't make ends meet.

There was a time long ago when I actually felt sorry for Thomcat.

Until I read one night how much he liked young boys.  He let his lust slip out after being highly medicated.

He even posted a picture of his fantasy boy.  I thought I would vomit.

After that I felt nothing for him but disgust.

wait a minute....he's about to be homeless because he's filed a disability claim for depression? Umm...I would think logging off DU would be a wise move to start.

Boy, I would love to have been a fly on the wall during that DUmmie get-together. Okay, maybe not.

No, my friends, there’s only one really progressive idea. And that is the idea of legally limiting the power of the government.

That is why we are conservatives. --Bill Whittle

It doesn't work for moving and it doesn't work for an economic system.

tom*****, mucho gracias for proving your opposition's point in one of the more ironic posts that I have read.

Ugh!  I admit to having felt sorry for him in the past, but now....  Wonder if they left that thread up?

BTW, I don't think he's gay, rather a sympathizer.  For whatever that's worth.

Yeah, he's a swarthy little fellow.

The deal about the tomcat primitive is, we're supposed to care more if the tomcat primitive suffers a paper-cut, than for the billions in the world hungry or ill or homeless, all put together.

This asshat is on disability for DEPRESSION??????????

I'm going to be sick! He couldn't help move himself because he is depressed? He's complaining that the government thinks he's full of shit over his depression?

Good Lord, can they be any more pathetic?

I just lost my best friend to liver cancer. He went down and applied for his SS and had it by the end of the next month! I guess if you're legit, they expedite it, huh?
