How is everybody holding up lately? I'm trying to see what everyone else is doing to survive this hell hole we call America?

Instructions Unclear: I forgave my landlord for reno-victing me, forgave the supermarket chains that price-fixed groceries which put me in debt. I was careful not to buy products which contribute to wars and inequality, even though it was harder and more expensive. Now I'm living the simple life by meditating under a bridge, but it's cold down here and the politicians are arguing over whether they should be able to kick me out and throw away my things. The only shelter with room available requires me to worship their god.

Over here, there's no arguing. They just throw away your things.

I'm sure you would have done great in the Roman Empire!
