Jesus multiplied fish and loaves to feed the assembled crowd because we are all each others' neighbor, with much food to spare, without cost
trump withholds food in an intentionally punitive attack against the vulnerable because he's a subhuman pathetic worm who believes nobody is his equal
trump withholds food in an intentionally punitive attack against the vulnerable because he's a subhuman pathetic worm who believes nobody is his equal
Hearing stories this morning about people who can no longer feed their kids because of SNAP benefits expiring fills me with a blinding rage I've never felt before. Just the absolute inhuman gall of Trump and the alleged "Christians" in the GOP actively harming people for no reason.

Everyone has to save money.
Full stop.
In this shitty abusive world of class warfare, income inequality and predatory capitalism, if you CAN, you MUST save what money you can without compromising a reasonable lifestyle.
Can, Reasonable, and Compromise are up to the individual to define. Obviously.

Genuinely! Many of my clients spend thousands over and over buying materials from U-LINE. I wonder how many indie businesses would LOVE to switch to an alternative competitive provider if they knew about U-LINE financing Right Wing platforms. 😵💫
