who is saying that?!

they were also children, presumably echoing the narratives of their parents. it is not a foregone conclusion that they are incapable of empathy.

nah, i also enjoy pointing and laughing when i see a cybertruck on the highway

edit (and at the people driving them)

to your last point, you’re not wrong. a lot of people are so fucked they know it doesn’t really matter, and i won’t blame them for the state of the nation.

where i live, voting is not necessarily easy or convenient for folks relying on public transport. that much harder if they are, say, a working single parent living below the poverty level. and my work involves talking to people like this every day - there are millions like them.

i gotta be honest, i’m not entirely sure what is intended. this decision doesn’t make sense to me!

my tamagotchi 😢

i know at least three meth addicts right now. two told me they used because they can’t/couldn’t access their mental health medication. one told me that many people don’t start until they are already on the street, and the misery plus being forced by cops to move over and over instead of sleeping encourages use. one told me it was the only way they could stay awake to work enough to support their family.

addicts need real help, like medical/mental health care, housing, a living wage.

but yeah, desperate people will do desperate things.
