I started running out of food yesterday
And I cannot really get any until Wednesday.
I have not got the supports I need in times like this.
And I started going hungry yesterday.
I only have four supported top ups for food a year, and I’ve used one already.
I’ll count my blessings that hospitalization here is free

I’m sorry you’re so hungry. I wish you could get food more easily

Church’s often have food closets where you can get staples and get enough food for a week. It sounds like you have food aid already but if you need more, maybe you can do a search online for food banks in your area. I have one place I go three times a month sponsored by our city but I am registered for at least three other food banks in my area that I can go to if I need to. I only go to the one, but I could go to all four if I wanted to.
Just type in your search bar: “Food banks near me” and you should get some results.
Can you at least maybe borrow a little money, like $5 or $10 and buy some cheap staples to tide you over until your regular money or benefits comes in? Rice, dried beans and pasta are cheap and go a long way.

I learnt a quote from the book,
the way of the samurai that I use.
If I sleep I sleep
If I eat I eat

Yeah, that’s good if you’re a samurai in 18th century Japan but I’d rather sleep and eat.

What does masculinity have to do with anything?

Yes I looked up food banks near me,
But I have enough
I spent 120$ last week on only fruit bread and veggies
From the inflation and a Strom.
Made prices sky high
That doesn’t answer the question.
I feel for you, and I feel goddamn privileged that I had never experienced involuntary hunger. It must be awful.

It’s almost 1/3 of the way through the year. With 4 times a year, you’re due to have.

Ok, “if I sleep and if I eat”. That is a masculine subject. If you understand.

Not in my culture. Your post still makes no sense to me.
No its not about culture. Its about body requirements.
