Hey guys, it's Moon. I wanted to upload this myself bc this is really important to me. I didnt make a Fluff and Puff for a bit again bc I've been so burnt out about the conditions America and the rest of the world are living in, it's felt like carrying boulders uphill but everyone is tight lipped and still trying to pitch sales to you or convince you to buy something as if nothing is wrong, all the while social agreements, society's safety nets, and rights get mutilated in broad daylight.I know I touched on the fact I lived in a narc house and how it feels awful to re-experience that as not a daughter in a house, but a citizen in a country.The intentional cruelty is absolutely breaking me and I just want to share things I'm doing to keep costs down. Of course there's the obvious, just don't eat out, ration the portions, go without healthcare, etc. But keeping us hungry is a way to keep folks distracted so if you or anyone you know is struggling, I hope some of this helps.I've honestly felt so emotionally paralyzed, like it feels insane to pretend we have normal jobs while all this stuff is going on and see so few creators talking about it. I know it's never been different, at least the millennial life expansion had a crap ton of unwanted DLC like Columbine, 2008 recession, COVID, now tariffs, I'm sure there are things I'm missing but ffs, it's been a steep climb and it's only gotten steeper for the ones after us. I figure most people know how to do normal saving when times get tight, like w/ beans and rice and stuff but I figured I'd share some extra things I've been doing to keep costs down as everything seems to be getting more and more expensive.I love you guys. Im worried about us all. I hope this helps at least one person get a meal.Links are in description with articles and the food sites to check out. Cheers!Be safe out there, I'll see you in the next audio. <3

Feeding Each Other in Cruel Times

Hello my lovely moonkips~! It’s been a minute. I’ve had help keeping uploads going while I've worked on some IRL stuff in the background, but this one needed to come from me. Everything happening right now, SNAP cuts, prices, cruelty disguised as policy, it’s been sitting heavy, I've brushed on it a little with patrons but now I wanna talk here too. I've been so frustrated that it feels like not enough folks are doing something or saying something, so... here we are. I grew up broke and scared and tired. I know that kind of hunger. So here’s me, talking through what I’m doing to get by, how I’m finding hope, and maybe how we can all hold each other up a little better right now. Here's the links to things referenced in the video too: Food Options: https://www.localharvest.org/csa/ https://www.toogoodtogo.com/ https://flashfood.com/ https://olioapp.com/en/ Articles: https://www.propublica.org/article/immigration-dhs-american-citizens-arrested-detained-against-will https://www.pbs.org/newshour/nation/immigration-agents-become-increasingly-aggressive-in-chicago https://www.medicarerights.org/medicare-watch/2025/07/31/federal-court-reverses-federal-medical-debt-protections https://www.stlouisfed.org/on-the-economy/2025/apr/whats-driving-surge-us-corporate-profits https://fortune.com/article/gen-z-work-ethic-vs-millennials-problem-habits-young-adults-workplace-employees/ https://www.justice.gov/archives/opa/pr/justice-department-sues-realpage-algorithmic-pricing-scheme-harms-millions-american-renters https://abcnews.go.com/US/aca-obamacare-enrollment-begins-subsidies/story?id=127061178 https://rooseveltinstitute.org/publications/citizens-united-15-years-later/ https://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/americas/us-politics/congress-stock-trading-nancy-pelosi-b2678752.html https://campaignlegal.org/update/how-does-citizens-united-decision-still-affect-us-2025 https://www.cpapracticeadvisor.com/2025/09/10/the-rise-of-the-overworked-american-u-s-work-hours-reach-record-highs-in-2024/168652/ https://abcnews.go.com/US/trump-administration-asks-appeals-court-immediately-halt-ruling/story?id=127294307 https://mountainstatespotlight.org/2025/11/06/snap-food-banks/?utm_source=chatgpt.com _____________________________ FREE SFW & Spicy Audios: https://www.moonsilkaudios.com/services EXCLUSIVE Spicy Audios: https://www.moonsilkaudios.com/exclusive-audios Discord: https://discord.com/invite/kPEY3fD Twitter: @MoonSilkAudios Commissions: https://www.moonsilkaudios.com/commissions Tellonym: https://www.moonsilkaudios.com/tellonym Wishlist: https://www.moonsilkaudios.com/throne Gamer Channel and Twitch: https://www.moonsilkaudios.com/miscellaneous-1
