SSI wouldn't pay out if Cecily has any significant income, so her narrative about combining incomes wouldn't make any sense unless maybe her income is also SSI. If hers was SSDI (we know she has at least some quarters of work eligibility) it would be considered income. She talks about "with my current income," but it'd have to be only a few hundred bucks a month or it'd start cutting real deep into those bennies. SSDI has higher maximums, but requires having worked at eligible jobs where you paid into the system. Charlie doesn't have anything like that.
Oh no. I just thought of something. Their kid is now an adult, so that wouldn't count either for a higher payout. Unless maybe this is also something where they're using some kind of SSI from her as well? Grim thought. If all three of them qualified for SSI, they could bring in a maximum of ~$2400, but with just the two of them, the maximum would be $1450.
If they were getting $2400/month from all three adults claiming SSI, $800 would be about 30% of their income. I actually think this is a likely scenario. Cecily notably didn't mention her "earnings," just "income."
Knew it. Of COURSE these lazy fakers faked their way onto disability.Relevant to your interests, see item 3 here:
In These Dark Times
On rage, being a fucking bitch, and trying to survive the now.
CECILY KELLOGG
JAN 16
In late 2020, my mother slipped at her nursing home and broke her hip, requiring hospitalization and surgery. While in the hospital, she contracted COVID. What was initially believed to be mild case quickly led to her death on January 30th.
I wrote at the time:
I feel heavy, like someone is pushing me into the ground. Each call delivering the news, that she started hospice, that they will take her tube out tomorrow, that she will almost certainly die soon after, hammers me further into the earth.
During that same period, of course, was the insurrection attempt in our nation’s capital. Between the instability of this country and the complex feelings around losing my mom, everything felt crushing and impossible.
Lately, that same familiar heaviness has settled in deeply since an ICE agent murdered a young mother in Minneapolis. The fact that there is now a private, unaccountable army of highly paid racist and misogynistic sadists terrifies me.
I hate how many fellow Americans believe compliance matters more than reason. That anyone not white, cis, and hetero is automatically suspicious and likely a criminal. Those who believe the shooting was justified and cheered when they heard the agent call that young mother a “fucking bitch.”
Those words echoed in my bones. I’ve heard those words from men too many times. Lovers. Partners. Colleagues. Bosses. Strangers. Why? Because I said no. Because I took up space. Because I demanded respect.
This is a dark fucking time. I don’t want to live in this world, but I get up every day anyway. I churn away, trying to earn a living in this capitalist hellscape while being a decent mother, wife and friend.
It’s exhausting just being alive now. Always waiting for (and receiving!) terrible fucking news. Smothered by the feeling of powerlessness, the battle against reality distortion, and the gaslighting from all sides. The simmering rage I feel as I watch everything so many worked to change over the last fifty years get destroyed.
At least my mom isn’t here to see it all burn down. It would have killed her.

Honestly, a lot, but it's a mix of me being a fucking bitch and me living in a city overrun by crazy people who will call anyone a bitch for existing near them at any given time. I am not eight years old though so I don't care if someone calls me that or worse.Female Kiwis, how often are you called a “fucking bitch”? Is this really something that happens often to normal female people, or is Cecily failing to notice that she’s the common denominator again? I can say with confidence that no immigration official or border guard has cursed at me, but I haven’t tried to run any over either.
Excuse you, how do you expect this woman who’s pushingThese three people together do less than many people do.
Starting with depriving her of a basic education and teaching her the world owes her a livelihood, Tori’s parents have done what they can to sabotage any possibility of her being able to live independently. Not to mention this a girl whose father happily took her panhandling with him as a fun father/daughter outing, the same way other dads take their kids swimming or to the library.She's a full time community college student. She can and should be working at least part time.
She also changed the name of her Substack from “Born Burning” to “Triggered Bitch.”Then came the abuse. Some people said I was misled by doctors and my babies could have lived (nope); most just called me a murderer. Others hyper fixated on weird details, like the one time I ate salty fries. My entire life was dissected and trashed. Friends and job sites got harassed. I got death threats.
The older links in this thread have succumbed to bitrot or DFE, but here is the archive of the famous tater tots, in case anyone wants to compare their memory with the new and updated reality.Cecily thinks it’s strange that anyone focused on her spite-eating extra-salty tater tots with ketchup as a FUCK YOU to her OB-GYN right before her twins’ deaths.
According to Cecily that was “the one time” she ate “salty fries.” Really.
