Our house flooded and is falling apart and we can't finish paying

My ex friend who turned out to be a huge anti-Semitic demon caused my house to flood out by "pranking" me by flushing tons of used tampons as well as random objects of mine ( mini dreidel, 2 menstrual cups, etc) down my toilet. Because of this on 1/9/19 at about 11 pm our plumbing backed up and flooded our house. The bathrooms obviously got it worst, but ALL of our flooring and baseboards throughout the whole house needed to be replaced. In the bathrooms the floors need to be replaced as the water is causing tiles to pop up, the drywall needs to be replaced around the entire perimeter about 2 foot up, as well as entirely around the shower in the master bathroom because the water damage caused the wall to crack floor to ceiling in 2 places, the baseboards need to be replaced, a mold treatment needs to be done, the master bathroom shower head needs to be replaced, and the vanities in both bathrooms need to be worked on (were hoping just repaired). Plus we will need to repaint pretty much the entire house (though that is not dire)

Our insurance gave us 11,500.

The flooring+baseboards (not including the bathrooms) was 8,050.

The material costs for the bathroom floor is about 300, and then another 2,000 for them to be laid down. Then about 100 for the baseboards (we're putting those in ourselves)

The estimate on fixing the walls is another 1,950.

At this point we're $700 short before we've even touched on the shower head, vanity, or paint.

We also had to pay a plumber $500 or $600 (I forget which, I'll find the paperwork and update later) on 1/10/19 to come out and fix the actual blockage which entirely drained our savings account and is the reason were left with so little to use out of pocket on repairs

There's some photos of the damage:

So today I had traffic court because in October I got my first ever ticket. I've been driving for SIX YEARS and this was my first time ever even being pulled over.

The prosecutor was an absolute fucking demon. He repeatedly called me pumba, if i tried to ask any questions or contest it he'd cut me off and send me away to the back of the line, and when he told me it was $270 (which is absolutely fucking crazy for doing 15 mph over for like 2 damn minutes and a first time ever violation) and I started crying because I literally have 11.46 in my account he stood up and basically announced to everyone that I was crying and he won't deal with cryers. He also said that the reason he won't do anything to help lower the fines or lete do traffic class instead is because "I just don't like you pumba"

So now my account is overdrafted 258.54 and I haven't even had it in me to look at the overdraft fees yet. So there goes my next two paychecks

All dogs share the same basic digestive system despite the range of physical variations (and attitudes) across different breeds. Every dog is designed to eat a raw animal-based diet, from the Chihuahua to the Great Dane. Breed-specific dog food brands are simply a marketing gimmick aimed at playing on the pet owner’s emotions, and their desire to feed their pet the best possible diet.

I don’t think that dogs need an animal-based diet. If done right they can be vegan and not contribute to the murdering of innocent animals. We’ve adapted and domesticated them enough to do so. They’ve evolved to live without meat just like us.

200% incorrect. Vegan diets are carbohydrate-based. Carbohydrates are inflammatory, feed cancer (glucose), contribute to periodontal disease (leading to systemic organ failure, eg heart), cause insulin spikes leading to a multitude of other issues in the long-term (thyroid, liver, diabetes, heart disease) and also cause pancreatic problems due to extreme stress on the pancreas (secreting heavy loads of carb enzymes over a long period of time). The low moisture content coupled with high plant protein may also cause renal failure in the long term. The preservatives used may also be linked to cancer (BHA, BHT etc), and these diets also skew the omega3/6 ratio, causing further inflammation (linked to cancer again). They cause urine alkalinity leading to urinary problems such as crystals, blockages and UTI’s.

Brief into to dog anatomy/physiology:

- Stomach PH: Their highly acidic stomach is designed for eliminating harmful bacteria and breaking down bone into a gel-like substance. Humans have a much more alkaline stomach acid which is why we would struggle to digest raw bone.

-Digestive Enzymes: Higher level of proteases to break down animal protein. High bile load to help push through bacteria.

-Dental Anatomy: Sharp pointed teeth designed for ripping and tearing flesh and bones.Dogs do not chew their food as we do, they are wired to swallow chunks quickly as a basic survival instinct.

-Jaws: Dogs also have strong jaws that physically cannot move sideways (like your own can). This sideways grinding action is a feature that allows pre-digestion of plant material. Again, dogs rip off chunks and swallow them whole.

-Lack of Salivary Amylase: Omnivores have this for pre-digestion of carbohydrates. Dogs and cats do not. The canine pancreas secretes amylase as a backup, however this does not mean they should be fed a high carbohydrate diet every day for a lifetime. Processed food (incl vegan) is 40-70% carbohydrate.

-Lysozyme: Instead of amylase, dogs have lysozyme in their saliva which is an antibacterial. This may be useful for destroying any harmful bacteria in carrion/rotten food/feces, as well as wound cleaning.

-Gut length: The canine gut is short in length which is because flesh must be pushed through quickly. It does not need to sit and ferment, as this could allow bacteria to multiply to harmful levels. Note that plant eating animals have a long digestive tract and even multiple stomach chambers in order for plant material to be slowly broken down by the necessary enzymes.

-Nutrient profiles. Dogs have 0% biological requirement for carbohydrates. They gain every single essential nutrient from a prey based diet such as Whole Prey/Prey Model. Vegan diets are full of processed lab-made vitamins and minerals. Many vitamin pre-mixes are made in china and shipped to the country of manufacture.

All in all, dogs will survive on a high carbohydrate diet but it will cause systemic effects eventually. Similar to smoking, a junk food diet affects every dog differently and some may be affected more severely than others, and in different time spans. You can also expect high vet fees in the form of dental cleanings, dental surgeries and various health problem later on in life.

It is not recommended that you feed your pet the equivalent of a big mac for the entirety of its life. This is essentially what kibble and vegan diets are. Evolution has changed the appearance and even the behaviour of your dog, but their digestive system is still geared towards meat. Basically, you are paying money to have a company slowly kill your pet from the inside out.

0/10, Not Recommended.

Hard science here for anyone who needs to shut down a “vegan pet owner.” It’s abuse. Feed your animal the substances they evolved to eat or do not own an animal, it’s as simple as that.

Keep in mind, as mentioned—kibble as well as vegan diets. As they noted, processed food INCLUDING vegan is 40-70% carbohydrate. That means traditional store bought dog food as well. You need to incorporate as much real meat into your dog’s diet as feasible, as a traditional kibble diet is neck and neck with a vegan diet for the Terrible For Dogs Award. Well still not ideal because they tend to have very high sodium contents, wet dog food and kibble is still better than solely kibble.
