Diapers can cost $30-40 a week. Yes, and many poor families without reliable access to transportation have to buy their diapers from smaller convenience stores/bodegas, where diapers are usually more expansive than at a supermarket or superstore. And as Joe and JerseyGirl have pointed out, there are
zero public assistance programs that provide diapers. Private charities and churches make up most of the burden there.

"You travel alone because other people are only there to remind you how much that hook hurts that we all bit down on. Wait for that one day we can bite free and get back out there in space where we belong, sail back over water, over skies, into space, the hook finally out of our mouths and we wander back out there in space spawning to other planets never to return hurrah to earth and we'll look back and can't even see these lives here anymore. Only the taste of blood to remind us we ever existed. The earth is small. We're gone. We're dead. We're safe."
