zenolaliaCapitalism is hell and I shouldn't support businesses like uber that seek to destroy the lower class by disrupting our likes through massive exploitation and the destruction of stable income as well as necessary infrastructure, but also I can't really leave the house without nearly dying due to a cacophony of illnesses and this stupid fucking grocery delivery service instant-cart that they just got in town is legit saving my fucking LIFE so like.
Shit, man, I'm the fucking edge case for which it was designed.
Like, I get massive, visually distorting migraines if I'm outside during the daylight for more than about 40 minutes, but everything is at least 20 minutes drive away, there's not enough stable bus infrastructure in town for me to get anywhere by bus in less than an hour, shopping makes me so dizzy, shake, and vertiginous that I sometimes pass out inside the stores (those poor cashiers don't know what to do with me, which in fairness, I do try to do it in the bathrooms so they don't have to worry but it's not always within my control so like).
The ability to carefully hand craft my grocery list to match my budget and massive dietary restrctions over the course of like 6-8 hours while sitting in my chair in the middle of the night in the dark and the quiet of my own home, knowing that my food will be brought to me without my needing to render myself literally bedridden for the following 20-72 hours is so good, like. It's so good.
God I wish it didn't have to be done by a shitty fucking "disruption" startup in the fucking uber vein. Goddamnit, I fucking hate that. This is a service I legitimately NEED because the alternative has been, in no undertain terms, KILLING me. I have literally been told multiple times by multiple professionals to STOP GROCERY SHOPPING and that's never been realistic until now but like
Ugh.
Capitalism is a little bitch and I hope it dies.
Anyway use this referral link: https://inst.cr/t/ABCzhvFDr to try the delivery groceries for free if you're into that and live in a modest to robustly populated area, and if you like it I'll get $50 in sweet fucking food money, which is great because I'm getting a real hardcore ass runaround about whether or not the government wants to give me, an unemployed, disabled, fucking battered-spouse-runaway some FUCKING FOOD PLEASE. "We will contact you in 17-10 business days" my plush round ass.
