Hey!

Stop voting for wealthy people!

They either hate you or are apathetic to your problems, but are “woke” because they once read half of the Cliff’s notes version of “Nickel and Dimed”.

What sucks about all of this is that historically speaking, it’s probably gonna be some cis-het white guy that’ll end up fixing this or getting credit for “saving” us.

If it is, can it be a good one, please? Just… let’s find the lone unproblematic white guy and make him our Harry Skywalker.

I’m so tired of being on this 3-year job hunt not feeling like I’ve done enough.

My two masters degrees and my PhD simply aren’t enough.

My work in physics, chemistry, and mathematics aren’t good enough.

Self-teaching myself 4 programming languages isn’t enough.

I need more credentials.

I need more boot camps.

No, I need more networking.

No, I need a higher LinkedIn follower count.

No, I need a web presence.

No, I need two more licenses that are $500/ hour.

Or I need to come from a “Name Brand” University.

I just want a fucking job where I can do math problems all day, do Python and SQL coding, and feel like maybe I’m doing something good with my life.

Why theFuck is this so fucking difficult?!

FOR PARENTS OF YOUNG KIDS IN THE US!

Someone over on bluesky posted this and I figured I'd better repost it here. It's the pre-RFK 2025 vaccination schedule for babies and young children, ya know, just in case it mysteriously disappears. Save this and give it to your child's pediatrician; tell them this is the schedule you want your child on.

I don’t know why y’all love talking about the Ides of March on here.

NONE OF YOU ARE GOING TO DO A FUCKING THING, EXCEPT BITCH FROM YOUR KEYBOARD.

Kindly shut up about the things you yourself wouldn’t do when given the chance.

No one else is going to save you except YOU.

'I think white gay people feel cheated because they were born, in principle, in a society in which they were supposed to be safe. The anomaly because of their sexuality puts them in danger, unexpectedly. Their reaction seems to me in direct proportion to their sense of feeling cheated of the advantages which accrue to white people in a white society. There's an element, it has always seemed to me, a bewilderment and complaint. Now that may sound very harsh, but the gay world as such is no more prepared to accept black people than anywhere else in society.'

- James Baldwin, The Village Voice (1984)
