If you're in the US and have trouble affording food, don't be afraid to try and get SNAP (Food Stamps). Many states even have an Expedited SNAP program that can get you a small amount of food stamps within a day,. All you need an ID and a signed affidavit.
I used to be a welfare clerk with the state of Pennsylvania. Most welfare programs in the US work fairly similarly, so ask any questions you like about the process. I'm going to be AFK for a bit, but I'll answer when I get back.
@chalcedony@octodon.social I'm going to have to spent most of today at the god damn mall because the water is getting turned off in the apartment for most of the day (it's the whole building, not just me) and I still have a headache and there's yard work going on and just. AARRRGGGHGHGHGHRRRRGGGRRRROOOWWWWRRRRR

Right now, the things that make you happy matter more than ever.
In times like these, you should hold tight to them. Find cause for joy and hope in every day.
Even the smallest of things. Those matter too.
Because the world is...kind of messed up lately! in ways that often we cant really help or fix.
I ask that you try to find happiness in defiance of that. Represent a world where hope and love and kindness still exist.
They do.
And you deserve them.
@Yarideki I initially read that as "you are slowly turning into kobolds" and I was like "!!!??? HOW MANY KOBOLDS AM I TURNING INTO???!!?"
@Jacel @neonNeptunian Indian restaurants often have mango lassis, which is basically the same thing. and now I want one. nooommmmm
@emanate mine includes "dominatrix" and that makes me *so happy* :D (also "archaeoastronomy" which is FANTASTIC OMG)
