I get my credit score up through tricks of the trade, get whatever procedure I need on credit, and then don't pay at all, because I can't afford basic medical even though I work, for above minimum wage no less. They want too much for essential medical treatments, so now I have to do this to survive, I just hope that between every 2 years when my credit tricks work again, that I don't get mysteriously ill with no way to pay. I tried everything. I work 40 hours and live in a very basic tract home built in the 90s with roommates, I sell things on the side, my old man does repairs/handyman services, we don't shop, or go on dates, or get to enjoy life really at all outside the home, hell, I've even tried selling porn; but apparently I'm not hot enough to pull that off either. And to top off this absolutely lack of sundae; I work enough to not qualify for any assistance despite all the above details keeping me stuck renting/working a shit job until something breaks or I get sick or somebody dies. I know some of y'all are gonna hate me for this, but I didn't create this broken economy where $10-$30 a month for insurance is an unaffordable expense on top of copays and deductibles and all the BS to make sure you never use the service they've made you purchase... When is enough gonna be enough? Then our leaders have the balls to ask why we're upset? Give me a damn break.

Well said! Very well said.
‘We got it back to the same as it ever was. Why are you upset?’. smh
Jesus Christ. Was there a shortage at the template factory or what?
The swat team usually consists of sheriff's deputies in my neck of the woods. They're exactly the same distance away roughly speaking. Maybe in a city where the swat building is separated from the PD that's the case. I do know they'll call out other county sheriff's deputies from nearby cities if they need a big enough response too. That's why there were a billion cops (who did nothing) at Uvalde most likely. All types of agencies responding.
You don't have to be an asshole to want to carry a gun around everywhere. When you're surrounded by people who openly discuss murdering you for your political stance, or your personal identity, or how you were born, and those people are intent on carrying guns to "defend" against threats that do no exist, meanwhile feeding themselves a steady diet of hate and discontent mixed with conspiracy theories... carrying may be the only thing between you and a lynching.
In short: take those people's guns and the rest of us can finally abandon these barbaric relics to the anals of history.
In my area it's like they want you to be poor. Those legitimately posted listings in my area are exclusively "scams", in that they will technically hire some people through those listings, but in reality they're just hiring immigrant labour for pennies on the dollar, and using state-funded labour agencies to promote these jobs which objectively could not support American citizens. I've seen one listing that said they wanted harvesters for crops, they were paying by the amount picked, not an hourly wage. This is a classic scam where you end up getting less than minimum wage, and the Federal government has to step in after the fact to get you up to the disgustingly low minimum wage to make up for that discrepancy.
This is the 'guns don't kill people' argument all over again. Yeah, dude was a danger regardless, but it was Republican propaganda that enabled and brought that danger to the surface. Pretending anything else happened would be a slap in the face to that poor man Mike, who lost his head to fascism.
For anybody looking to make change: don't ask permission, and be not afraid of death.
You can't ungay people with force, donkey brains. This is how gay(and so on) movements have made the strides they have in the first place. You push against nature, nature pushes back.
I'm aware the people here aren't likely lining up to agree with shitty enforcement of old laws, this is just a rant to people who do agree with this sentiment.
Mine too. Reading too quickly for that series of words to come out correctly, I guess?
Let's burn this mother down, pookie!
