reason number 1829182773839291 why the American government sucks dick and balls:
if you're getting money from the government (disability, SSI, unemployment) there's a high chance they'll decide randomly that they "overpaid" you and that YOU have to pay THEM
For the first half of 2023 I was fighting tooth and nail to get my money back. They were underpaying me by a mile because they said I was working. I was not. I had barely any income, I couldn't eat, I couldn't get necessities, I was scared for my own health. Finally, around May of 2023, I got them to pay me my normal amount again.
Now, it's January 2024, and the same issue is happening. They're claiming I was overpaid in March of 2023 even though I was actually not paid at all. They didn't give me money for March whatsoever and they're saying they paid me the normal amount of money that most people on disability get.
These things aren't in place to help you, they're to keep you in one place and that place is poverty. I'm getting paid jack fuckall at my job and I'm getting my money taken away for something that never happened, but I can't get another job because then I'll lose my apartment due to how the subsidized housing system works.
It's never ending and I can't get out without a boost. I'm hoping that I'll be able to go off to college and work something out but who knows.

I hate that nwh successfully reinvested me in holland spidey at the very last second by giving him absolutely nothing. This will never be followed up on, because if there is ever a spidey4 he will have presumably gotten the hang of things in the gap, but i am predictably so so so obsessed with characters who have to build themselves out of ash, characters who exist without being "real", characters who have to grapple with logistics. Seeing home sewn spandex again was such a breath of air.

petition for the top 20 or so billionaires to be dropped on a remote island for a hunger games-style tournament in which their final ranking is the percentage of their net worth that will be donated to help fix global warming, ocean landfill, pollution, deforestation, poverty, affordable healthcare, etc.
even better if they can televise it for us common folk :)

It's September 3rd. 😢 In 2008, the Feeding America non-profit organization began the tradition of promoting September as Hunger Action Month to help raise awareness of the massive but totally curable worldwide hunger problem. For billions of people on our planet, a daily meal isn’t a choice between different dishes – it's a choice between food and other crucial needs like medicine, electricity, and childcare. Please participate in Hunger Action Month by taking action to eradicate it. Sharing, volunteering, pledging, fundraising, and donating are just a few ways to help end the impossible choices hunger forces upon people.
Hunger is a problem that exists in every corner of the world – from the least developed countries to the shining pinnacle of modernity in places like the UK, Canada, and Japan. In the US, hunger impacts every ethnic group, but especially Native Americans. Native Americans experience many unique challenges and are more likely to face hunger because of a long history of harmful federal policies that has led to high rates of poverty, crime, unemployment, and food insecurity. Prior to COVID, one in every four Native Americans struggled with hunger. Only one in four Native American communities lie within one mile of a supermarket. Feeding America is working with national organizations to meet the needs of all local communities, especially Minority communities.
Nobody should have to go hungry, and Hunger Action Month reminds us that there are many people out there who need the help of a kind soul with an open hand and that there are more than enough resources in the world for us all to eat well. Isn’t it time we all stood up and did something for the hungry on our planet? ☮️ Peace… Jamiese of Pixoplanet
