having a freeze response to stress is so funny in the context of normal adult stressors. millions of years of evolution are trying to tell me that the email will not find me if i stay very still and do nothing
sometimes you dont eat fruit for awhile and then you eat some fruit and you're like oh fuck its fruit
That's what always happens in capitalist societies. They say that if you don't want to be poor, there's a certain thing you have to do. But then everyone does it, so it's no longer effective. The system depends on making sure that there's always a supply of poor people to exploit.
can confirm, the switch from "just get a degree, any degree, it'll show employers that you can commit longterm and follow through, and most skills are transferable" to "lolol dumbass millennials got underwater basket weaving degrees as if they'd ever help you get a job and now they're paying off student loans with their Starbucks jobs and it's all their own dumbass fault, idiots!" was instantaneous
mhm then it was 'oh learn to code, everyone needs an IT guy'
... and suddenly code monkeys are getting fired because their dumbfuck bosses think chatgpt is the same thing.
Second verse same as the first, a little bit louder and a whole lot worse
IT people were getting laid off and made redundant looooong before chat gpt lets not forget.
My favorite part of being poor is the fact that a piece of shit felon can hold the highest title in our country
for the last fucking time, tiktok getting banned is BAD. this is a huge free speech concern. it's rooted in sinophobia. and it will set a really bad precedent that allows the government to ban any platform that doesn't let them control the media narrative
the leftism bare minimum of fucking democracy leaving peoples bodies when a platform they don't personally like is on the chopping block
it also affects non-american people in the sense that a major platform that is used world wide will just NOT have US americans on it. I'm not saying that as a fun thing...
I'm saying that as a "there will be a massive, sudden vacuum in the cultural landscape with no predicting of how that will be filled".
I'm saying that as a "US americans are already considered badly informed and isolated from the rest of the world, which will get worse".
Meta (facebook/whattsapp/instagram etc) and Twitter were heavily supporting the tiktok ban, because they stand to profit from this, but they also (either explicitly or implicitly) allow a lot of racism, homophobia, transphobia and sexism on their platforms. not that tiktok is any better than them at those factors, but the fact that is that american social media aren't really offering anything that is actually better in return for all social media being centralized in the US.
The US is really trying to drive home the distrust of other countries, is really closing doors on collaboration for the sake of mutual benefits, and is heavily investing in profits at the cost of both their own citizens and at the cost of those they offer services to.
As someone who does not live in the US, I too dread how this tiktok ban would affect the internet, because if this works out in favor of facebook and twitter, or in favor of goals of the republican party, this is definitely not the last thing to get banned just because it's foreign.
