    …but you are aware that there is plenty of room for things to get even worse, right? I mean, if you already have absolutely nothing to lose…ok…I think I understand.

      I’m at the point where one run of bad luck would leave me out on the street with 6 months to live. I have very few people in my life that are close to me, and none with the capacity to help me. I took tens of thousands of dollars of student debt and haven’t been able to get a job for months. None of the retail jobs here pay enough to make rent, let alone buy food. Social services are all but non-existent.

      The society that currently exists seems to want me to die. Fuck all that.
