actually fucking disgusting that glasses cost any money like if you actually think about it for more than a few seconds it is so unconscionably inhumane. this goes for things like insulin and mobility aids and hearing aids too ofc but fuck man, fucking glasses? the thing you need to fucking see? its genuinely sickening and inhumanly evil that those cost ANYTHING.
I wear glasses and hearing aids.
my glasses are so old they don’t really “work” anymore but a new test and pair is >400$
my hearing aids are breaking and i’m losing my only access to a world not made for me as a deaf person. yes I know sign language. but not many others outside the community do.
I cannot stress enough how asinine it is to lose my connection to the world just because people want to stay rich. fuck billionaires.
