Is there any humiliation worse than putting a meme you thought would bring the house down in your lesson slides, only to have your students sit silently and blankly when it appears? 🫠😅

I graduated straight into the housing crash with a Religious Studies degree and no plan. Good thing I’m not about to graduate into an even bigger recession with the Most Woke of all unemployable degrees (sociology, with a focus on defeating the far right), because that would SUCK lololol

What’s wild to me is now Congress is so willing to give up anything they have in terms of power, influence and governance. Like I know the majority of them couldn’t care less about us or democracy, but I would have assumed they’d at least recognize they’re bowing themselves into irrelevancy.

It wasn’t the defense itself, but an internal review by my committee to make sure I’m good to do my research. But I didn’t want to embarrass myself and they were so encouraging and kind! Feel much more confident in myself now.

Good news for folks who are feeling hopeless in this moment, hard won from my experience as an activist + some wise insight from Greta Thunberg.

" “The biggest weapon against Al Qaeda and Islamic extremism is ‘Sesame Street,’” [conservative Republican and former USAID Administrator] Mr. Natsios said in an interview, recounting how successful the show had been in Egypt when the American government helped fund it during his term in office."

Why the Arabic ‘Sesame Street’ and Other Cuts Are Not Really About Fraud

As President Trump and Elon Musk cut federal programs, they often equate political and policy differences with corruption.

I’ll have to check that one out! Been really enjoying Fallout too but that’s less current times and more just an enjoyable romp through dystopian Americana

I encourage you to - every so often - take a scroll through rightwing news headlines. Just to understand that these people live in the Upside Down. The things we hear about on the left of the spectrum, they don’t at all. Until they are impacted personally, they will remain in a bubble of lies.

Oh, you want things to be different? Get ready to do some actually disruptive action. Real progress takes sacrifice and effort. You useless fucks. Rep. Al Green - on behalf of all of us, thank you.

These limp d*ck performative protests by the Dems just show that they’ve never had to actually fight for anything in their lives. They think they can make a dignified gesture of disappointment and have someone rush to address their complaints, like the useless rich people they are.

But if you cut out bureaucracy altogether, you go back to an earlier form of less rational organization, where people are hired based solely on loyalty and elite connections, not expertise and experience, and there are no checks and balances. This is what we’re seeing happen now.
