  • Have some interviews coming up, and one of them is for a seasonal job that provides housing so I might finally gtfo my hometown. I want to build up my savings again and I might finally go out in the world and touch some grass!

    Speaking of which, does anyone else think social egalitarianism is a prerequisite for meritocracy (or whatever meritocracy pretends it is?)? Americans smugly like to claim this is a meritocracy and if you’re poor it’s all your fault…but look at the process of simply getting a job.

    Job seeking has become an insular, gatekeepy process. How many times have you been told “it’s not what you know, it’s who you know, bro.” from some internet comment or frat boy. Literally even having permission to work relies on navigating the cliquey good ol’ boy hellscape. Doesn’t sound very meritocratic to me. I could write a whole thesis on how the government refuses to implement any policy aligned with the scientific consensus solely out of their own hedonistic lust for either consumerism, schadenfreude, or both.







  • And they’re always the same smuglords who say about how dumb people can’t understand generalizations.

    Please tell me if this hypothesis is real, but these types are idiot children playing dress up in the “mysterious hacker known as 4chan’s” legacy. They’re more interested in looking like cyber gangsters and aren’t actually all powerful dangerous superhumans like they carry themselves as.


  • Unironically realized this with chatGPT. I had to fucking go out of my way in a discussion to get it to criticize me…and then immediately ask if I want counterarguments for that criticism.

    We need to yank the “redpill” meme out of the normie’s hands. Because idiots like the pepe crusader guy are more concerned about being super cool and fashionable irl supervillains than the truth: porky is scum and white men aren’t fucking special.
