Some people really don't understand stuff not matter how many times you explain it to them until you're mean about it
#i am unemployed i have not money to pay my eletricity bill that came in today#i am not getting call backs from interviews whatsoever#my mom had to pay my rent this month and i will probably have to leave next month bc i cannot pay rent again next month without a job#i had to get groceries today and didn't even get much but it was 18€#and this bitch is out here asking me to send money for a birthday gift for a friend of ours#which I WOULD LOVE TO BUT I CANNOT I DON'T HAVE MONEY#i said this and she was like 'well it's not much maybe 5 or 10€'#and then i had to expose myself and my situation in the group chat (thankfully it's just people i know) so she understood#i can barely afford groceries#i have yet to see how i'll pay for the eletricity bill#like honey i CANNOT AFFORD 5 OR 10 EUROS

#it really says something that i would rather die than have to repeat the endless cycle of another year#like it's always the same#go to work every day at a job i no longer like#weekend spent trying to recover#rinse and repeat#i cry thinking about just. the journey to work#waking up and getting out of bed#and i cant physically afford to do anything to change it#I can't move house#I can't afford not to have a job#i can barely afford groceries#or to indulge in my hobbies#im just sad and frustrated and lonely#and that makes the forever sleep sound so tempting#the idea that i could just decide I'm done and switch off forever#but I'm too lazy to even do that#i dont fucking know#i'm just tired#personal#delete later#tw sui ideation#tw sui vent#tw suicidal thoughts#tw depressing thoughts#tw vent

Oof imagine hyping up this big announcement all week only for everyone to react by saying it's the worst idea ever. A swing and a miss, my guys.
#watcher#watcher entertainment#I love you all#But there's no way you will keep most of your fanbase#We can't afford to pay for yet another streaming subscription service when some of us can barely afford groceries

So anyway you repeatedly say we only feel corn husks and similar inedible parts to cattle but Never add a source to back it up. Having worked on farms I’m afraid for the most part the feeds I’ve seen have been parts entirely edible to humans. And like fuck man 5% of all grown soy is fed to humans or however the stat goes, do you really think the remaining 95% is inedible? really?
Anyway yeah I’m asking for a source here cause I don’t want to add this on to months old post
Ingredients such as “grain by-products” are referring to the husks, stalks, and other “green” parts of the plant that we humans don’t actually have the digestive capabilities to eat. The breakdown of most livestock feeds looks like the above when you actually take a look at it.
Different cattle feed, similar ingredients. Still primarily things that, and I have to stress this, you cannot eat. This one is slightly higher in quality and does indeed have actual grain products included. Some of those are edible to humans. Some are not. Generally cattle are fed cattle cubes with supplemental mineral licks and hay. Some also supplement with whole corn, but I can gladly assure you that corn is not in short supply and even if all the corn sold to animal feed was donated to the poor, you can’t actually live off of corn because there’s very little nutrition in it. Hence why in both human and animal food it’s typically seen as a filler ingredient. Keeps the mouth busy with a meal without making your stomach feel full and you end up eating more without feeling satisfied.
Soybeans are really only often used in feed for pigs because they’re a great source of protein for these animals. I would state that soy is also a terrible option to use as an emergency food for humans in need because while, yes, it is indeed a healthy bean, it’s also one of the top eight foods that humans are frequently allergic or intolerant towards. I’d also ask you for whether your 5% of all grown soy statistic is referring to the beans or the entire plant because yeah the beans are the edible part. The rest of the plant isn't especially healthy for humans to eat. I would say the beans are around 5% of a mature soy plant sure.
#No offense anon but when you come here with ACTUALLY MOST OF WHAT FARM COWS EAT IS HUMAN FOOD and bring up SOY in the discussion of COWS#I somewhat doubt you actually have much experience farming#because no actually cattle benefit from the green parts of the plant more than the bean parts in most cases#corn is used as a cheap supplemental feed because it’s cheap and it’s cheap because there’s so so SO much of it#And corn isn’t grown in special livestock only plantations when it’s used as feed as opposed to human food either#corn is grown en masse and processed and then sold to various companies which use the corn for various things#if animal feed companies stopped buying corn and that corn was instead bought by human food companies#that doesn’t mean corn would be any more or less accessible to the hungry#because it would go to grocery stores and TV dinner companies and sauce companies and soda companies and so on#and it would still be sold same as always#world hungerTM isn’t caused because people can’t afford corn#corn is dirt cheap and most people can afford it#it’s just barely a step above eating sand and you can’t live off of it#I’ve gone a few days only eating corn products because they were cheap#and shocking no one I had no energy and felt just as hungry after each bowl as I had before the last#people cannot survive off of that#giving corn to livestock isn’t taking away any resource of value from humans#sorry it just isn’t

yeah yeah I think about making kink based blinkie templates but they're on a longgggg list of ones ive been meaning to make for years. the being broke and ill and homeless thing hampers the amount of art im able to make as well just a bit
#by a bit i mean so much more than i expected it would. i was like “well at least I'll be able to focus on art” lol i wish it worked that way#op barks#as always money is so extremely appreciated 🥲 groceries and gas are my main expenses and like im frugal but it's fuckin hard#relatives have been able to throw me like $200/ month + I'm mostly staying on friends couch + my car#no damn clue how ill get out of this im disabled and no where will hire me w my lack of experience#i do what i can but i can barely afford to eat enough to like stay conscious and do basic things

#not svt but#a sad day for me bcs i guess i'm now gna have one less channel whose content i enjoy watching#and it's not even about them losing interest in content creation#but instead they'll be moving everything to another platform where it's subscription base#including all their old content apparently?#do i have to start rewatching old buzzfeed unsolved videos again since there won't be anymore watcher content#also them saying $5.99/month or $59.99/year is “low enough that anyone and everyone is able to afford it” is so out of touch#i can easily name a few pple who does not have the extra money for things like that#so many pple can barely afford to pay rent and bills and groceries in this world

does anyone else feel like.... extremely frazzled when they get home from the store or similar places??
#the best way i can describe it is feeling like theres like a scribble animation in my head if that makes sense lol#im not really one to have social anxiety but for about a year now if i go out esp during the day i feel like this afterwards#while im at the store i have my headphones on of course and im dissociating so hard that i barely remember being there#then when i get home it's like i cant focus but i also have tunnel vision and i kinda zone out for like an hour#i have pretty bad dpdr symptoms all the time but this is like x10#those grocery store lights do a number on me#idk im probably just overstimulated or something but its weird and uncomfortable and i wanna know WHY#i wish i could afford to get an updated psych eval now that im sober#they'd probably take one look at me and set up the euthanization appt

did anyone else see the newest watcher video
#txt#watcher#huge L what the fuck are they doing#especially shane ‘eat the rich’ madej#i’ve lost absolutely all respect for these people#i’m not payrolling your lives in luxury man#i’m not payrolling your ceo as he travels around the world eating all this fancy shit i could only dream of affording#they have completely let down their fans and userbase#and their model isn’t even sustainable what the hell are they thinking#no one wanted them to do this#‘it’s only six dollars a month!’ does it look like i can afford that. i can barely afford rent and groceries

I know this sounds like nothing but it’s a lot for me right now. I’m overwhelmed and weepy and struggling somethin fierce. But god damn this broth is exquisite.
#It’s really hard having just one person in your whole life.#I want a family sob#I need a mom and dad#siblings#I need help and it’s non existent#I don’t know what I’m going to do#re car#driving my bfs but I hate it bc I’m so scared I’ll mess it up somehow#it’s too tall for me and I can barely reach the pedals#I’m so scared of literally life right now and I’m not sure how to function in society#I’m drowning#I can’t afford a new car#I can’t afford anything#how do people make it?#my bf got me groceries so I’m not utterly desolate#the language culture barrier is real though#I’m lucky I’m not dead#I know that#but I’m in a head space where I wish I had atleast been placed in a coma for like a year 😳😫#I know it’s awful#I’m not going to hurt myself.

I'm sorry for my posts today, I guess the stress from the entirety of September was piled too high and is collapsing onto my head. I'm just so tired y'all....
#the dentist office in town offers walk ins so i COULD go tomorrow but two peoblems#i cant afford to do a payment plan. after sending rent and bills im left with barely enough for any groceries needed.#i can get maybe 5 things if im lucky#also im scared. im scared to go alone. its too short notice to ask my friend to pick me up and take me. i cant do that to him.#so do i just wait until i can afford the 120$ insurance plan and risk the infection getting worse or spreading#or do i go and risk not beinf able to pay the bill and get into yet another debt#i dont think i even wanna do this for me#all i can rhink about is my niece and how is she supposed to have a good like when im the only one with decent credit#thst could get a house with a yard and her own room#whos gonna be the one to take care mom amd dad if i bite it yknow? because thats my biggest responsibility#taking care of two disabled adults bc one cant works bc hes legally blind and the other cant get approval to work from her heart dr#their ssi could decrease or lower at any point in time as demonstrated multiple times this year alone#so yeah im only doing the right thing and at least TRYING to see a dentist for their benefit and not mine#my benefit is i continue to live with slightly healither teeth? no because id rather let myself deteriorate into nothing#but i dont the choice because i have people depending on me financially and i cant fail because if i fail things worse for them#and if things get worse for them its just another one of my fuck ups#sometimes i wish i just burned in the house fire in 2008#talkies#vent
