My bad. I was looking for a stupid job that didn't mean anything where I didn't have to do stuff. Sorry, I guess.

I am so tired of movies that try to say something about capitalism but can't manage anything beyond "Rich people are... kinda dicks, amirite?" as though that's the beginning and end of the issue. Like, the root of the problem isn't a dearth of noblesse oblige

this morning i noticed my cat was freaking out more than usual. he's an anxious kitty (he'd been a stray for 3 years when we got him, then we had two moves with a very rough period in between). usually he has a routine that i do with him that helps him calm down but today it just wasn't working and i couldn't figure out why he was so stressed out. he kept bapping me on the head and waking me up and running around and eventually i realized what the issue was.

on monday i had a skin biopsy that left a pretty sizeable wound. yesterday i spent pretty much all day feeling like shit and laying around, and today i was supposed to clean it and change the dressing. he was panicking because he could smell the wound, saw me laying in bed all day, and he wasn't sure if i was okay. i got up, and as i removed the old bandage he started WAILING. just completely losing it when he saw it. he clearly understood that something like that wasn't good. i made sure he didn't touch it, but i let him smell me and see that i was okay, and he watched me clean and re-bandage it and pretty much the second it was done he immediately calmed down.

ten minutes later and he's purring and snuggly and 'guarding me' from such scary things as Loud Noise Outside and Blanket Moving Weird. this cat is better at taking care of me than i am some days.

(voice of someone about to turn 30) it’s nice making friends. It’s nice to play together and have fun. It’s nice to hang out

The mind commands the body and it obeys. The mind commands itself and meets resistance.

I'm a big hit at parties because I say things like "death to all who oppose us" and "the reckoning is at hand" when I’m clicked on

Christians love doing stuff like this and making such a person the face of their religion then turn around and get mad when they're (correctly) seen as insufferable.

Some of the same people upset a Muslim man is poised to be the mayor of New York. But sure, they give AF about supposed "religious discrimination".

Let my Black behind have thrown a fit like this and I'm sure the same crowd supporting this girl would be telling me to sit my DEI ass down.

i think some people are misunderstanding what this girl is doing as her being stupid: she (almost certainly) did this on purpose to get attention in the hopes of becoming a conservative media/social media darling. it's becoming a taught career strategy for young conservatives in the anglosphere, particularly white women. Get your name in the press - or your face on a talk show! - for standing up to Woke University with your Conservative Values, get a social media following, get a regular segment on a conservative news network or become a figure in the conservative party.

It's not stupidity, it's malice. The goal is not to get a passing grade for a garbage essay but to fabricate a controversy and ruin a trans person's life. The posts in the screencaps above fail to mention this but the target is trans.

i asked the bartender to split a twenty into fives but she gave me five four dollar bills & when i asked where & how she got four dollar bills she said “i am completely insensitive to your curiosity”
