im just a poor disabled veteran college student trying to support my two small children i dont live in an ivory tower able to castigate those who are different than me or dont have the same opportunities as me, i had to claw my way up from the bottom
ive worked my ass off over the years and have significantly contributed to the discourse ; im tired
i try my best here but because im poor and in a rural place i get walked the fuck over and because i dont have some big degree from a big school nobody ever even gives me a nod
but nonetheless i will persist.
i want to show you some of my contributions, that somebody that had nothing. zero. can do. if i can do it you can too.
