Chilaquiles are a traditional Mexican breakfast dish made with tortillas.
In central Mexico, it is common for the tortilla chips to remain crisp. To achieve this, all ingredients except the salsa are placed on a plate and the salsa is poured at the last moment before serving. In Guadalajara, cazuelas are kept simmering, filled with chilaquiles that become thick in texture, similar to polenta. In the state of Sinaloa, chilaquiles are sometimes prepared with cream. In the state of Tamaulipas, on the northeast side of the country, red tomato sauce is commonly used. In the state of San Luis Potosí, it is also common to serve chilaquiles with cecina rather than pulled chicken.

CW: real shit, being depressed a.f., if you’re feeling down this post will probably make you feel worse.
Comrades I am not doing well. Had a breakup on Monday, failed a physical for a job application on Wednesday (part of a multi stage process that took months, job would have been life changing money wise), the news is completely bleak, the average house price in my country just passed a MILLION DOLLARS. Cheaper than US dollars but still. I make like 60k a year guys. I accepted I would never own a home not far into my adult life, but still.
Beyond the immediate shitty news coming from the US and Iran and half the rest of the world, there’s the slow burn of knowing our climate (and society) is gonna collapse in my lifetime. That my body is full of plastic. That despite years of organising and working in a commie org, the struggle is quantitatively exactly the same as when we started in our country. The people responsible will not be punished. I am depressed for myself, for my friends, for the third world, for my class.
Personally and societally things are not going well and I’m just extra feeling it atm. I’m sure y’all know how it is, when shitty stuff happens in your personal life all that political/societal shit that sits in the recesses of your mind starts breaking through the cognitive dissonance that allows you to function day to day without the horrific weight of what is confronting us all crippling you.
Ive done therapy on and off and what? What can a therapist say to make any of this better, lol? “Have you tried journaling”, “oh let’s do a meditation”. Not to mention I can barely even afford THAT!!! I spend literally half my income on rent!!!! Therapy costs 5% of what I make in a fortnight!!!!!! I have 40 fucking dollars in the bank until Wednesday!!!!
I take my antidepressants as I have for over a decade and they must take the edge off I guess. God knows how I’d be without them. I consume “””content””” by listening to audiobooks or YouTube all day at work and at home. Oh look at me I’m listening to educational communist content, I am making a difference I am not just another consumer at the fucking slop trough!!!! I look down on people who consoom Netflix and marvel slop every night and spend all day talking about it at work but what am I doing?! I am so superior with my non stop ingestion of Google product!
Whatever. I don’t want y’all to worry that I’m gonna self harm or whatever (I will definitely be getting drunk this weekend however). I have irl friends and comrades around. Just woke up in a super shitty mood today after this week, kinda been spiralling, wanted to get this off my chest. Even after typing it out I feel a bit better. I’ll keep going, because what else can we do? The struggle is all there is.
