I’ve been pretty poor - I was just reviewing my social security statement and I made less than $15k two years in a row. I’ve been the overemployed kind of poor (working multiple jobs) and the underemployed kind (out of work). I’ve been a vegetarian throughout, and I’ve always managed to put my recycling into a bin.

I also have ADHD, and there are times when I get overwhelmed and do have to compromise my morals on something like throwing stuff away instead of donating to get through a move when I don’t have the bandwidth.

But those are stories about me, not generalizations about everyone who is poor or everyone with ADHD. If you want to talk about your own struggles, that’s great, we’ll listen. But you don’t get to generalize about everyone else you have decided must be just like you. Being poor sucks, but if you are bound and determined to wallow and to bring everyone else down with you, that’s on you. These generalizations are not making some kind of classist point you think they are.

That’s the problem with this entire post. Who is saying any of this? Whose morals are we talking about? If you can just as easily recycle something as throw it in the trash and you choose not to recycle because your rent is too high and your boss is a piece of shit, that’s just nonsense. On the other hand, as a vegan, I personally do not have any moral objection to you illegally hunting animals for food if that’s the only access to food you have. What is the point of any of this, is this some kind of vaguebooking about some other post?

And nobody taught us shit, we know how to do stuff because we had to figure it out ourselves. That’s why they don’t notice us. But… whatever.

Jesus Christ, every post I open up is just negativity. Go back to Reddit with your well actually. Maybe try standing up for something. Here is a clue: don’t buy a4k TV. I’m pretty much done with this platform

Well I didn’t downvote you, but anyway, keep being the problem then bucko

Thank you. I did not have kids for a number of reasons, and I can assure you the world would not be a better place if I had. But I do always enjoy people telling me my life is pointless, haha

Say it with me: everyone on the Internet is a BOY

It’s like the notion of a “starter home.” When I bought my house and was debating some pros and cons, my realtor was like, “don’t worry, you can just buy your dream home later and use this as a rental property!” Uhhh. This is my home. To live in. It’s the only one I ever plan to buy.

What? You won’t “vote with your wallet” meaning you freely give your money to companies that do evil?

Unless you and dipshit above are rogue Republicans, we are so fucked as a nation
