Hey Pete, you have to hang in there, champion. You are literally a fact based local reporter in what is about to be confusing and bad times, my dude. You’re Peter Parker, basically, except you are doing it analog. Do you have a kofi account or something?
I appreciate the sentiment, but I’ll be fine. I have some food and can still buy a few days’ worth before I switch over to meal-replacement powder for situations such as this.
Ima just throw this out there. But you should take the offer! You need real food. Take care of yourself before helping others! Don’t live off of powder if you don’t have to.
Edit: sorry if this came off the wrong way, but I see so many good people struggling and it sucks
If I didn’t have the powder, I’d consider it. But I’m not lacking for calories in storage while many others are, so I’m not comfortable taking charity. There may come a day; it’s not pride so much as not wanting to fuck with karma by accepting when not in dire need.
Hmm I get what you’re saying. That’s thoughtful of you. I hope that your situation improves soon and everything works out
I appreciate that Pete has a contingency plan (I am known to switch over to colonial warfare rations when pressed for cash myself).
However let’s also not pretend like reporters get paid enough by corpo employers so to me, Pete, passing you a fistful of ones on kofi is more akin to supporting FOSS or artists than any sort of “charity” or even mutual aid.
