the way americans are obsessed with the fuckin military is terrifying. I work as a cashier so I occasionally have to ask for donations for whatever the cause of the moment is. people will donate all the fuckin time to the troops but not only will they ignore homeless children, but they joke about it. they’re over here like “haha I have my own hungry children to feed” or “they should be donating to me I’m hungry” or other just straight up stupid unnecessary shit and it’s cruel, joking about homeless fuckin children. yet the mere mention of troops and they’re throwing all their money at me. these people are glorified murderers and americans eat that shit up and worship the ground they walk on. the brainwashing is un-fuckin-real
I don’t really agree with this, it’s very problematic. I grew up with my dad always somewhere else giving his life away for our country… I moved every 1-3 years of my life because of him being in the military. I don’t have a home town or friends I’ve known since I was little. I don’t have the house I grew up in with the height marks on the wall. I don’t have close relationships with my extended family because we had to make these sacrifices so the rest of you in this country could have those things. It might not seem like much to you, but you have no idea what it’s like to not have those things. You call them murders when you don’t even know is they’ve ever killed anyone. There are MANY jobs in the military. My dad wasn’t ever IN the battle but he was out there getting bombs dropped over his bed where he slept at night. He was riding in the same vehicles that could have run over a landmind. We’d go weeks without being able to reach him. My mom was basically a single mother while worrying if her husband was safe. There is so much more than half of you can even imagine behind the military. The people they’re protecting you against wouldn’t think twice about killing you or a newborn baby.

i’m not entirely sure of my career goals but i’d prefer to stay within the realm of romantic comedy love interest girl careers which are journalist, baker, florist, and dog walker. perhaps a quirky mix of all four
