Hi, Beehaw! I uninstalled Reddit. - eviltoast

And suddenly all is well.

I feel at peace, I often take things on the internet too literally (in person too lol). The whole “touch grass” phrase that many people use doesn’t really resonate with those of us who are neurodivergent. I’m just weary of the online world, but it’s refreshing to see platforms like Lemmy and others in the Fediverse allowing us to control the content we engage with. It’s not just about the content, the audience is different as well.

Whew! How are you guys today?

        Its December 21

        Jan 20 is US presidential inauguration

        Although I’m a Citizen, I’m not born in the US.

        I’m not white

        President-elect says “Mass Deportations”

        There has already been reports in the past of Mexican-Americans being deported despite being Citizens

        This is my face pretending everything is okay:🙃

        On top of the political climate

        My parents are shitty

        Moving out is not an option

        Tariffs are going make that even more impossible, living expenses are gonna skyrocket, living along is practically a death sentence.

        On top of that, I can’t really mantain a job due to servere depression

        Parents are opposed to medication

        So its not really my day being shitty. My life is being shitty. Therefore, every day is shitty.

        🙃

          No I completely understand! While we are different, I’m a Black American, I’m struggling to get my family out of a crappy area as is, imagine what would happen when Trump is president? Not to mention the majority of his cult members, who are horrible as is towards Black folks and any other minority groups… His cabinet picks…? Supreme Court…? So fun… 😭

          My bestie, despite being born in the US is Guyanese, so I’m really hoping that she can stay. If she leaves, I wouldn’t know what to do.
