Not looking for pity. But if you are having an awful December holiday, you aren't alone. This may be a chance to unload. I'll start.

My apt was flooded with rain 4 days ago, at ground level. For 4 days, my studio apt, carpet has been soaking wet, footsteps squishing, like stepping in a puddle. Property management wont do anything, hope I can talk sense into them before the floorboards rot and cave in.

You? It's OK, you're not alone.

I live in a van. It's pouring rain all week. My van is leaking inside. I don't have a home. someone was fucking with my van while I was at work last Monday and they punctured my tires. I just bought brand new tires. I cannot afford more new tires. I caught a common cold a few days ago and had to miss work because we deal closely with our clients. now my boss won't let me come to work for 2 weeks. That's two weeks of pay I will not get. I'm dying. please send help. This cuddly rainy weather everybody is cuddling. Everyone but me. everyone else's happiness reinforces my isolation.
