The horror inherent in how we (don't) talk about covid anymore. Everyone is constantly getting infected at school, work and health care facilities and many of us are getting more & more disabled. At the same time, work from home jobs are disappearing and wearing a mask is stigmatized. People are sending their kids to school without even thinking about it. Workers are peer pressured not to mask. Try showing up to a job interview with a mask and see if you get the job. All that during a cost of living crisis & mass unemployment in many places. Choose between eating & avoiding brain damage. It's the black lung of our time. One of the worst tendencies of humanity on full display, on a global scale and nobody but disabled people even gives a shit anymore.

ever since i learned abt the concept of networking i knew i was going to have to do everything alone and do it the hard way

There is supposed to be a place where no one can reach you. Traditionally, the home, but now we settle for the ocean, the airplane, the summit of a mountain, the middle of a lake, the shower, the womb, the grave

one thing everyone who is struggling with cooking for themselves needs to know is that the shittiest rice cooker, like the ones that cost $5 at rite aid, can make entire meals. you can put anything you want (except uncooked meats that need prolonged temperatures to be safe to eat) in with the rice and push the button and go lie down for 20 minutes. you will learn through making slightly over or undercooked rice a few times how you need to adjust the liquid:rice ratios. you can put rice, a bag of baby carrots, whatever salt and spices, and a can of tuna (or a can of shredded chicken, beef, etc, or tofu, or canned beans, or canned tomatoes) in a rice cooker and it will be completely edible in ~20min. it costs like $1 per batch, less if you get regular carrots and cut them into chunks yourself. you should have frozen spinach and peas and corn in your freezer, or whatever frozen veg is safe for your food allergies. this kind of meal can survive in the fridge for a while and the freezer even longer. if you make it badly it wont poison you and can be salvaged with hot sauce, if you make it disastrously it can be thrown away without losing more than a dollar or two. if you make it okay it fullfills the Just Need Some Real Food requirements completely. if you need more calories you can add butter or oil, or eat sour cream on the side. if you forget about the rice cooker or fall asleep it will dry out on the bottom but wont burn. they should teach you this in 5th grade

some royal jewels were stolen from the louvre which is unfortunate for historical reasons but you gotta appreciate a classic crime. so many crimes are online these days it’s nice to see heist culture is still alive

people should be allowed to have low ambition, and also be able to feed a family on the salary of a cashier at a convenience store.
