Something eating me today was a post on Twitter about the need to save money and not splurge on fursuits or cons. And I hate to be completely irresponsible but frankly, the social contract has been intentionally broken. Why try to save when it’s only going to go to landlords, inflation and insurers? Why not get cons and fursuits before you die thanks to Republican fueled hate crime, effects of unacknowledged climate change or the next pandemic? What’re you holding out for, a house?

There is no hope! There is no reward for being a good scout here! The rich and powerful broke the system, and they’re never going to stop making everything worse! Just how bad by comparison, can it be to spend money you don’t really have?
