Maybe it's me. I don't know. But I feel like Duolingo is trolling me.
I've been using the app for six months now. I still don't know how to count any numbers, the days of the week, the names of the months, essential verbs like "to be" or "to know", or important phrases like "Can you please speak slower?" or "I need help," but by God I can tell you "My crocodile is already at the theater" in perfect Russian.

oho! found a new enemy! pymetrics!!! Jesus Christ using digit span and reaction time to judge whether a candidate would be a good hire is straight up discriminatory and would not tell you shit about whether or not they're a good candidate. none of these tasks are anything like something you'd see in real life unless a client was throwing balls at you or some shit. legitimately awful. will probably not get the job for this. honestly probably because the "hard" version of the spacebar task was easy as shit. also requiring me to stare at a screen at red and green dots meant the color negative cancelled the colors out and I couldn't see the colors as it went on. absolute dogshit.

Ever since I got back from "vacation" I've been stuck because I had a lowkey debilitating mental break but it's also been very subtle. Another humpty dumpty type of situation. I was feeling so inspired and ready and then the reality set in and I felt so small again and set in my ways and maybe I am but I still want to fight with all I have against all the awfulness of myself. Anyway I'm finally getting around to doing laundry and cleaning up. I want to get my room changed up by the spring at the latest. I need to get my huge nasty solid wooden dressers out by the end of September, self inflicted time frame. I'm gonna do it this time I dont care how much I have to fight. I'm gonna finally taking myself seriously since I'm so sick of feeling like no one else does. Amen
