It still gets me to where I'm going, just not as fast. For a rain/snow bike, I think that's alright. Plus, I think it sheds some light on where the real problem is. Rather than the rear cassette, the problem may have been more in the middle chainring, which is what I used to use exclusively.
Thanks for posting a picture, that confirms my suspicion. How do I put this gently -- your cassette is ****ed and needs to be replaced. Same for your chain and probably the middle chainring.

Just do it. If you refuse, I will not be able to defend you from anyone labelling you a troll.
