Rocket didn’t die.

I’m 95% sure this one is a troll. They call themselves a boomer and then act like a petulant child. It’s gotta be a bit.

If that’s what you need, go for it. Maybe try to be less of a fucking asshole to random people on the internet. What’s wrong with you?

Jesus fucking christ. Touch some grass, for your own sanity.

Seriously. Lighten up.

Bro it’s a phone. Are you OK?

I did, and I really like it.

Imagine gatekeeping phones.

What does moderation involve? How much time, and what sort of activities would someone be expected to perform?

Thank you so much. We’ve incredibly managed to raise £3,800, and Bernie is going to a specialist tomorrow. We’re hoping he can have the procedure there and then, but we think they want to do some imaging first.

I just want him better and home!

If anyone has visited the page, they will have seen that the situation here is that we’re raising funds for a procedure that will give Bernie an additional opening to urinate from. It’s a straightforward procedure, and it’s not a question about spending money for him to potentially suffer more. The money spent is to prevent him experiencing further blockages, which is what cause the pain and potential kidney failure, which can result in death. That’s why this is a life-saving surgery.

Seriously, it’s fucked.

Appreciate you replying.

I have actually tried this in the past. It’s not that simple. Reddit uses a combination of IP, MAC, device, as well as other data to know who you are.

I got someone else to post there for me, and it was removed because they didn’t have enough karma.

Its fine. We’ve managed to raised £2,125 so far and we still have 24-36 hours to keep going.

We’ve got good momentum and people are good. I believe.

What? What are you saying right now?

Are you trying to tell me that because there are plenty more cats in shelters, that I should just let my boy die?

What’s wrong with you?

We might have made a mistake somewhere, as the r/assistance post was removed. Also r/cats and r/aww don’t allow GoFundMe posts. She’s going to r/GoFundMe next.

Good news though, we’re just about to surpass £2k!

Thanks again Cujo.

Really appreciate your response Cujo, thank you. I’ve asked my partner to post over on reddit and she’s posted it to r/assistance. I’ll ask her to reach out to the mods of r/aww and r/cats too.

I really appreciate that, thank you. I will get right on it.

Great idea, I would love to!

Once this is sorted, and Bernie is home and well, I’ll get on it.

Thank you. The response has actually been incredible and I’m about to head to some shops in my area to post a printed version with a QR code.

I’m sorry to have broken some rules, that wasn’t my intention. We’re honestly just trying to do right by our boy.

Hey I appreciate you following up, and you’re right. For what it’s worth, we’ve not had a lot of sleep lately and we’re kinda burnt out by all this. Crying kinda takes it outta you, you know?

I’m going to ask my friend to post for me, is assistance the best place?

What would they need in order to get it posted? Can they just link the GoFundMe page?

I appreciate you leaving it up. I’m just trying to do the right thing by my boy. Sorry if I broke a rule somewhere. I haven’t really slept a great deal lately.

No no, that’s not what I’m saying at all.

I loved reddit. I still love what reddit was. My reason for not doing this there is explained in a reply to another comment, but short version is I can’t post there and haven’t been able to for years.

Now I’m on Lemmy, I’m more inclined to spend time working out how best to get traction here than I am to try to get back on reddit after being suspended years ago.

Sorry if that came across like I’m being anti-reddit, there’s more to it and I’m just trying to reply to everything I’ve got going on as quickly as I can, across multiple platforms.
