In hindsight , I really loved the working class commuter college I used to go to. Average age was around 27 and people had lives and families etc. I came here to graduate from an “impressive” university only to learn that for my tech related major it doesn’t really matter for the sorts of jobs I’m looking for .
It just turned to be extremely expensive and a culture shock to constantly be around people who have access to generational wealth.
I really appreciate all the effort put into these mega threads. Am going back to read old ones because I learn so much from them. Thank you
That’s why I have chatgpt manage my dating life
True but you also don’t get any credit for being precocious because we are adults who are supposed to know things. I find that annoying
Going to university at 42, I can now clearly see how hostile the entire culture is towards any working class values or qualities. The oppression is everywhere, from the language used to the architecture.
I used to think campuses were beautiful shrines to education and free thought. In reality they are just fortresses for the preservation of unjust class hierarchies.
Shout out to Barbara Ehrenreich for opening my eyes
Personally I don’t care about that. If feds don’t find me here , they will find me somewhere. And what are they going to do anyhow? Federal prison are like five star hotel compared to some of the places I’ve lived and other facilities.
Also , fuck them . We are not the ones should be hiding. We didn’t commit genocide or destroy Ukraine. We have a first amendment and they are the ones breaking their own laws
Oh you are referring to the quote "Live by the sword and everything will turn out fine " I think

I am genuinely excited for tonights debate because I hate Vance even more than others. He is such a hateful fraud. Watching him humiliate himself these last few months has been very gratifying.
I have high expectations for it because Vance cannot help but expose himself as a misanthropic dork. The more time he has to do so , the better

Mushrooms. You can grow them yourself which is a hobby in itself. It’s such an interesting life form which most of us don’t think about and growing them (as is legal in my area) is a genuine pleasure.
If anyone is interested go to magicbag.com to get the substrate for $30 , spores are $10 more , id recommend mycco.com and it’s basically a matter of injecting the spores without allowing any contaminants in and then waiting. Eventually you will have several ounces.
Of course this all applies for cooking mushrooms like Shiitake or Oyster (Its a nice side hustle to sell these fresh to restaurants) because apparently some people think they taste good
Honestly, they exceeded even my most cynical expectations. When I was warned that libs are our primary enemy , I always thought of that as an abstract philosophical view but no, they are our enemies. As soon as the right doesn’t oppose them they will come after us and already are.
With bad domestic policy at least , you could argue some part of the citizenry deserves that but genocidal foreign policy is us imposing our violence on the world which is , in some way , is even worse.
And at least right wingers will be honest sometimes. Libs don’t even understand their own motivations so they can’t be honest. And so they can suggest that we need to do a genocide because Gazans don’t wear bikinis at the beach and yet consider themselves a moral authority.
For real. It’s a relief. Trying to convince people to have empathy for other human beings doesn’t go anywhere and only leaves me exhausted.
I feel better already !
Thank you. I’m very happy to be here. Between Twitter and Reddit Im just asking to be angry for much of my day and obviously I don’t want to live like that.
Hello everyone 👋 I’m a refugee from the bloodthirsty land of reddit and very happy to be here. Will take me a minute to adjust to people not constantly war mongering for battles they will never fight in or assuring me that "Putin is just bluffing " (but also will take over the world if he isn’t stopped )
Oh and killing children with Battery bombs is “Kingsman shit”
Anyway if my account didn’t get approved here , I was about to have my doctor contact the mods and request emergency approval on the basis that reddit is giving me brain cancer
So true. And also why it personally bothers me when south Asian’s are Islam phobic. Like , when they say “Muslim” they mean you and me and you won’t get any points for also being racist.
