yesterday I started a new job at a healthcare practice and I am still reeling over how I was treated for masking.

it's funny because this IS unacceptable. armed militia members shouldn't have to defend destitute people with no roof over their head who are simply existing. we SHOULD fund homes for all. but that isn't who we are more, so armed militia members it is.

when I worked at malwart part of my job was disposing dozens of large bins of food every night.
they did not pay me enough to afford rent and food. I was starving.
do you have any idea how painful it is to waste food when your belly is empty. when your body is eating itself.

that's like unbuckling someone's seatbelt and driving into oncoming traffic. fucks sake. if they can't press charges I hope they can discharge that patient. unbelievable. and after the past four years of HCW sacrificing so much to keep our society functional. I'm at a loss.

I decided I needed to job hunt because my current employer has refused a wage increase for the third year in a row and nobody, I mean nobody, is paying a dime more. I literally cannot afford to live. $350 for a couple weeks of groceries for one person? $1350 for a one bedroom??

hello friends,
it is with a heavy heart I come to you, begging for your help. my beloved cat needs care and I have met my financial limit. without intervention, the most humane thing to do is euthanization. he can still be saved, but I need your help:

my mom had insurance but she couldn't afford to treat her cancer so she just ignored it until the growth cut off her GI tract. by then they had to amputate her jaw. do you think her healthcare costs went down after that? fuck no. she couldn't pay the new bills and it killed her.
