  • Food. I’m making just enough to get my bills paid, but I’ve been eating ramen and Mac and cheese for around a year. I just want to be able to have food in the fridge/cupboard. It’s getting so fucking tiring to never have basic necessities to work so fucking hard to keep my bank account in the negative. I’m so fucking depressed.

    Now that I’m done venting, I would absolutely love to be able to get some gifts for my brothers and sisters but it just doesn’t look like it’ll be feasible this year.

    One of the candidates from the major parties will win. Period. One will gleefully do what he can to accelerate the genocide in Gaza and the West Bank. Israel has said they’re not concerned with Iran, and they shouldn’t be with all the weapons the west sends them.

    Harris is currently the VP and can’t just openly go against the administration she is serving in and therefore is in a tough spot, I’d imagine. Do I think Harris will commit to a weapons blockade or any sort of immediate solution? Absolutely not.

    I do, however, think that Harris will 100% be more open to measures to bring about a ceasefire through pressuring Netanyahu and the Israeli state. That’s the choice.

    Nobody in US politics has a chance to stop the genocide instantaneously. That’s the fact. Nobody that will be elected can do that. Harris, I believe, will be far more open to measures that will bring about change.

    Is there a perfect option? There never is.

    I accidentally deleted my comment when I went to edit it. My apologies.

    Miriam Adelson is one of the Trump campaign’s chief financiers. She pledged the Trump campaign in the neighborhood of $100m to support Israel’s annexation of the West Bank. That would be direct acceleration of the genocide.

    Adelson previously donated close to $100m to Trump support moving the embassy back to Tel Aviv, which Trump gleefully supported.

    That’s an interesting take. I love Cattle Decapitation’s old stuff but their newer stuff never really grabbed me.

    Either way, to each their own. Cattle Decapitation is amazing either way!

    Edit: I didn’t see that you specified “more approachable”. You’re 100% correct in that. It’s 5am here, sorry.
