7 weeks, I don’t remember it being this bad the first time but maybe I forgot. Everything stinks and tastes nasty. I just picked up some food that’s costs me $21 so I’m forcing myself to eat it but this isn’t good.
I definitely feel like this administration doesn’t care about these things since they are backed by the elite and techno-bureaucrats. Not sure how they managed to convince Americans otherwise but that’s beside the point. I’m not seeing this as a platform issue on the left either but it could be that I’ve been more tuned out of politics lately.
Whichever politician is the first to actually pass and promote meaningful legislation to save the American working class has my vote, but I don’t know where they are. And no, I’m not talking about the one-time 100k visa fee that large corporations are willing and able to swallow in order to play their long game. Is this an issue you are hearing about in your social circles or do people not realize that the middle class is at serious risk?
I think it’s one thing if it’s your mom or sister and you know they’ll have a positive reaction. But I see so many videos of friends filming multiple people in their friend group and I wonder if there’s someone in there who’s battling their own fertility issues who has to then put on a brave face (without any time to process the news). And then have their reaction shared with people online who may scrutinize whether they’re genuinely happy or not. I say all this as a toddler mom who’s newly pregnant so not trying to be a Debbie downer, but offering a different perspective.
