Nothing like hearing how my mom and grandma are at a university assisting college students who got tased by cops because they were protesting for Israel to stop committing genocide.
That was the first thing I heard when I got home-
What the hell happened to first amendment rights? Because all I see now is that the freedom of protest and the freedom of speech doesn't apply when people speak out against genocide.
I live in such a hypocritical country, good lord.

Tissue boxes are to containers today as feed sacks were to dresses during the Great Depression, and I think that says a lot about our current economic state ngl

Just met some very kind people selling homemade nachos on the street to try and make their rent, right next to a megachurch advertising laser tag, an indoor pool, and concerts for its members.
Feeling particularly bad about this country today.

The fact that I can say right now that:
There is a Palestinian genocide occurring and nobody gives a flying fuck,
America is rearing its ass up and is on like the 9th stage of a transgender and possibly entire queer genocide,
People who have abortions in some states can face a death penalty,
And queer people, mainly drag kings/queens, are getting the death penalty for 'child sex crimes' just for being in public,
Just absolutely makes me lose complete faith in the fucking world. Especially considering I named only about 5% of the problems occurring right now. There is so much more..

Been thinking about maybe living in a different country someday. I asked for my parents advice for how to move out of the United States safely and cheaply. They said that I should join the military. Bruh, I gotta sign a contract to potentially kill and be killed for the USA to leave the USA? Imma just wait til I got more money.
(I know a lot of places are less safe than America, but we all know it ain't all it's cracked up to be, to put it lightly.)

Why is it nearly impossible to leave the United States to go on vacation anywhere?
Want to visit the Caribbean for a week? $2,000 plane ticket.
Want to visit the United Kingdom? $2,300 plane ticket.
Land of the free? Fuck that....
No one can afford to leave or stay. I hate it here.

I hate you faceless bureaucracies I hate you endless hold lines I hate you compartmentalized systems I hate you automated call directories I hate you planned obsolescence I hate you warranties and insurance and systems that have no people and no accountability and no way to tangibly handle problems. I hate living in this Kafkaesque nightmare with upbeat crackly elevator wait music with automated options. I hate you capitalism I hate you capitalism I hate you capitalism I HATE YOU CAPITALISM
