i personally think it kinda resembles a lot of the working class’s struggles, specifically in the USA, so the viewpoint could be from an average worker from Chicago talking about his country and the many issues it brings to its people

one point i’ve been thinking about is this:

“Bush, former head of the C.I.A., you know
A guy like him kinda puts the nail in the coffin
It's like big brother's trying to push his weight around
At least Clinton came from somewhat meager means
He can relate to the common guy
He knows what we're going through
(Laugh)”

does it look like an american worker trying to figure out the “lesser evil” side for him and the whole working class? like he’s trynna convince himself, or has just fallen for this sort of propaganda that there’s someone who cares about him?

i’ll make it short - there’s this boy i once noticed at my bus stop; he was always all alone and on his phone, never talked to anyone, and was visibly very timid - i instantly saw myself in him and i wanted to know anything about him. so when i started to notice him over and over every single morning i started becoming obsessed with him; i spent 8 months intensely looking for his name on social media, i would cry of joy whenever i’d find photos of him anywhere. i dont know literally anything about him, just his name and his school, despite we live in the same town; he’s been in my head for months, i realised i just made up an idealised version of a real person i know nothing about and it’s been consuming me for a long time. all my motivation to go to school was to see him for those 5 minutes at the bus stop, now i just discovered he graduated and i won’t be able to see him again, i can’t remember a moment in my life in which i felt THIS bad. what should i do?
