Félicien Breton 🍉 🔻 🌱<p>“Self-defence means not only attacking terrorists but destroying them.

Cynni's Blog<p><strong>Needing things… 💸</strong></p> As many of you know, I have a disability income. I got 70% of my last working income, and that's been adjusted every year with the new wages limits. It's decent enough, but with the costs rising of everything, and there not being an extra income of a partner, it can be challenging. Especially as I've been in a decent money situation for a few years, and money is the one thing I've always struggled with. My impulsive ADHD side has gotten me into some troubles at times... 😔 I've been trying to make ends meet. I've needed to ask for some help in the past, which always was hard for me to do. The generosity of friends and strangers has surprised me a lot, and saved me from some hard times. 💜 But now, with Arwen's health declining, I'm struggling again...

The most atrocious injustices, cruelties, lies, snobberies exist everywhere, but there are not many people left who can regard these things with the same indifference as, say, a Roman slave-owner. Even the millionaire suffers from a vague sense of guilt, like a dog eating a stolen leg of mutton.
