New job is requiring a lot of travel. I will get mileage but in a month. But I have to go to lunch meetings frequently. I can't hear if I can't see your lips. I am feeling so lost. What do other HoH people do? You can't ask for captions at a luncheon!

Bluesky keeps saying I live in Texas and it needs a credit card to verify my age or I can't use my account. I have not been to Texas in years and years and I have no VPN. If I wait an hour or so it usually stops. What is even happening?

Cosmos Goldfish. I made this out of pressed flowers. Sometimes I think about Kahlo or Van Gogh struggling with their illnesses and injuries and limitations and having time to do nothing but make art. I get it.

Can somebody help me? I am hard of hearing and the ADA phone number is a misprint, it goes to child abuse. The 877 number either has no answer or I cannot hear the person because they will not allow me to explain that I am hearing impaired. I have been trying to get insurance for weeks. Im so sick

How do you get started using TTY on your cell phone? I'm losing my hearing and when I Google it I just see numbers to call which obviously I can't do... #deaf #hardofhearig #disability #tty

I hover close to dying because there are just so few resources. Can't afford my meds. Medicaid stalled. 2-3 month wait timem And my disability while debilitating and severely limiting is not even "that bad." I can still walk somewhat, feed myself, etc. This world is just so messed up.

Jay G @frogontheporch.bsky.social · 26/07/2026
This is how people fall through the cracks and die. No charity programs, no patient assistance available. Can't get round 2 if the first bill isn't paid. It's literally a lot cheaper to die.

Transmission went out. Lost job. Got second job offer the same day as a $4100 repair estimate. I am so screwed. I'm so tired of this. Not going to hurt myself, but I am just so tired and hungry and exhausted and I feel like I could just collapse mentally. Life should not be so hard.

Starting a new job later this week. Tons of red flags. Less than I've earned in 20 years, no health ins for first 60 days, pray that I hold it together. I have a sinus infection and two ear infections right now, during what will be my first week. But I got the job and I'll go even if I'm dead!

Jay G @frogontheporch.bsky.social · 09/07/2026
Are there any cheap home remedies for ear/sinus infections that actually work? AI said things like neti pot but my rheumatologist before I lost insurance told me not to use those where I'm immune suppressed. I'm 45 minutes from a hospital and hospitals are incredibly dangerous for me anyway.

This is the SECOND job offer that ended up not going through because of moves the federal government has made. I did all the background checks, turned in my info, etc. How are people coping and living and staying alive in this job market? I'm ever so barely hanging on.

Anyone know of a #disability agency you can ask re: finding W2 remote work when state agencies like P&A, Voc Rehab have massive waiting lists or can't help? I need a case manager who can help find a remote job. I'm immune suppressed, HoH, and pretty much destitute. I need some kind of help!

It's becoming real that I'm losing health insurance tomorrow, 6/30. I'm scared and anxious. Some of my meds stay in my system for days, others for weeks. I'm eventually going to end up in the hospital. I can start the Medicaid process the day after COBRA ends, but it's going to take weeks. The (1/3)

@hcrichardson.bsky.social mentions Gallop saying 50% of Americans can't afford healthcare now. I'm immune suppressed so liklier to die the longer I go without my insurance. It's crazy that it's 50% now. I love her videos, they're always so informative. Never flashy or clickbait, just relevant info.

I want to say thank you to people who sent money for food. It will last at least a couple months and I'm also paying my phone bill. I can send receipts to anybody who wants it. I have a masters and this is the longest I've ever been out of work. I know eventually I'll find a job that's OK with 1/2

Something I've learned about hunger. You can go weeks not getting enough to eat yet each day it doesn't get better. You never get used to it. Every day your body says, "I need more to eat" and expects that, but your brain says, "Be grateful for what you do have." It makes you empathize so strongly.

How long do credit cards take to come after you once you can't pay them? I've been out of work 11 months and done EVERYTHING I can, but I have nothing left. I don't know how it works. I feel such guilt and anxiety not being able to pay them or my COBRA premium now. It's all so heavy and depressing.

Is there a service like 988 for people who can't hear well enough to talk on a phone anymore? I began losing my hearing as an adult so I didn't learn TTY. I'm not suicidal, just soo overwhelmed mentally/spiritually/financially/physically. I feel so alone and tired lately. But I can't hear right.

I got all three molars extracted. They said that the fact I'm immune suppressed and my jaw had become so infected is also what was causing my lymph nodes to go crazy for all those months. I'm just so glad to finally get them taken out. It really does screw your entire life when you're 1/2

I've waited since November 2025 to see a dentist and now it's almost $800 that I don't have. And this is considered the low cost "affordable" option without anesthesia. I'm so over being a human with a body. Why is life and health so inaccessible?

I cannot hear well enough to use a phone lately. I've tried to cancel my Optimum internet service and I can't hear it. I tried to do it online and they keep saying there is only one way, by phone. I have no one who can do it for me that I trust with my acct/$ info. What do I even do.

I get accused of screaming and I literally don't know it. I have hearing loss. I don't have a way to know if I'm too loud. It's really hurtful and I try not to but I literally can't tell especially in noisy situations. How do other people even navigate this?

I've never seen a judge write like this. And from the citations on "over and over and over," you can see that it's many different judges in the district.

@katiephang.bsky.social is an astute observer. I appreciate how she points out that there's no way Andrew won't rat out other people to save himself. He won't be gone after like Jean-Luc or Epstein was. He's way too high up. It's just a matter of time for legal proceedings, but he will squeal.

Kemi's humble address demand must be related to Trump's call that foreign governments not investigate Epstein. That's why Starmer's cabinet aren't defending him now. Word's spreading re: what's in those papers. It could take months to be ready for the public but mark my words, it's all connected.

I've been out of work for months and have very limited funds but I would like to buy at least six or eight whistles, one for me and one to give other people. Is there a dirt cheap way to do this? I went to the Dollar Tree and Walmart and both had none stocked, which I guess could be a good thing.

I'm told we will not have any emergency or delivery services available on this hill for at least 6 more days due to weather. I've already gone since Saturday without one med and until mid next week there's literally nothing anyone can do for us except pray. It's a genuine disaster. So please, pray.
