Capitalism is a game where only a few people get to win....

it’s week 2 of 2024 and Holy Fuck Is It Windy Out There right now, oh god

I’m at the limit of survival, which is not ideal. By this, I mean I have no income, no financial support, and my van doesn’t start. This last bit turbocharges the first. If I can’t shower, I can’t go into an interview....

I read this article recently and I was just thinking about my news consumption and how much I want to be affected by it....
