    It looks like your partitions might be messed up. Show me the output of these commands:
    fdisk -l /dev/sdb
    mount | grep /dev/sdb
    df | grep /dev/sdb

    fdisk -l /dev/sdb yields:
    Disk /dev/sdb: 29.4 GiB, 31591497728 bytes, 61702144 sectors
    Units: sectors of 1 * 512 = 512 bytes
    Sector size (logical/physical): 512 bytes / 512 bytes
    I/O size (minimum/optimal): 512 bytes / 512 bytes
    Disklabel type: gpt
    Disk identifier: C1B213ED-9EAF-4CA6-9162-459DCCF37B9F

    Device Start End Sectors Size Type
    /dev/sdb1 40 409639 409600 200M EFI System
    /dev/sdb2 411648 61700095 61288448 29.2G Microsoft basic data

    mount | grep /dev/sdb yields:
    /dev/sdb2 on /lib/live/mount/findiso type vfat (ro,noatime,fmask=0022,dmask=0022,codepage=437,ioc harset=utf8,shortname=mixed,errors=remount-ro)

    df | grep /dev/sdb yields:
    /dev/sdb2 30629248 2883808 27745440 10% /lib/live/mount/findiso

    Thanks for all the help!

    Oh, also - I checked GParted again and apparently, /dev/sdb2 is mounted on /lib/live/mount/findiso now. I deleted and reinstalled a fresh version of Kali on my USB, I guess this is why?
