I had a meeting with the blind social worker. Her dog kept jumping on me. I was standing in the corner with an excited dog. I am not afraid of dogs but I wasn't sure if I could manhandle a service dog.

In other news, I asked the asian coworker with the short skirts and dirty voice how her weekend went.
"Oh I was dancing in a nightclub"
"You mean you went to an nightclub?"
"No, I was paid to dance"
And shows me a video on her phone of her and her friend dancing on stage in leather hot-pants and a skimpy top.

Everything is great
women enjoying themselves, you mean?
i dated a professor in korea (she was singaporean and very brit-coded though), graduated from princeton and lectured at korea's most elite university. her main hobby there? pole dancing.
i guess it's shocking if you've not interacted with women or gender dynamics since the 1970s.

Its weird to be shown videos in a work environment though.
Also, when I ask people at the coffee machine how their weekend was I don't expect them to
A) tell me
B) show me videos of themselves in leather hot pants
There's no knowing where either could end up

She just wants him to subscribe to her OnlyFans
Thinking about putting in a claim for sexual harassment.
I mean, if someone asked me about my weekend and I pushed a video of me doing chin-ups on the jungle gym in the park wearing short-shorts into their face I'd be pulled into HR before I worked out how to get back to the home screen on my iphone.
Also apparently I can't use the park any more because some Karen complained.

I saw a TikTok (???) that argued that many people are 'addicted to misery.' Being negative isn't situational but instead a psychological need. My always negative assistants reminds me of this.
Discontent is what drives progress.
Everything is great
as well as drug addiction, school shootings, and all sorts of self-destructive behaviour not conducive to progress in the least.
Discontent with the status quo and being mired in self-pity are two different things.
Everything is great
pretty much the entirety of conservative rebuttals to liberals or progressives is that they are somehow mentally ill.
Conservatives are fine with the status quo, isn't that the definition?
Whats funny is everything Trump accuses someone else of is exactly what he has planned.

there's a stereotype on social media about how women are the ones who take selfies with objects, and how men just take pictures of the object. this was one of the first image search results for the above book:
i wonder if guys like this are still alive. did they survive covid? are they enjoying $8 gas and $100+ beef? preening over dead iranian schoolgirls? "he's nice if you get to know him," somehow i doubt that.
many such examples. hat and sunglasses, driver's seat of pickup, vlogging their political hot takes.
respect his chosen name you guys.

that sure blew up, seeing it everywhere. slotted in with stuff like "all you had to do was pay us enough to live."

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jus_trium_liberorum
I think once societies become sufficiently complex child having declined and the societies transform. It happened already once in the U.S. in regards to the Irish, Polish and Italians running the Northeast while the Dutch/English population were subsumed. Now the white Catholic Northeast is in decline and getting replaced too.
Empires like the U.S. and what was the British Empire are probably most at sensitive to this. The empire's commitments and challenges will outstrip the core population you need to just maintain it. Immigration and subject people fill in the gaps. Eventually the groups you bring to fill in the gaps learn the imperial language and norms. Their groups grow into their own centers and eventually the whole thing tranforme into something else. This happened in the Roman Empire when the crisis of the third century took place. Imperial power shifted from the urban old Latin group centered in Rome to provincial elites and yadda yadda yadda France, Spain, Italy, Portugal all exist now.
Thank you for listening to my lecture. $1400 and an essay and I will give you 3 credit hours.
Population stagnation and demographic replacement goes back to ancient Rome. Don't blame cellphones and social media.The jus trium liberorum (Latin, "the right of three children"; also spelled ius),[1] was a privilege awarded to Roman citizens who had produced at least three children or to freedpersons who had produced at least four.[2] The privilege resulted from the Lex Papia Poppaea and other legislation on morality introduced by Augustus in the first centuries BC and AD.[3] These laws were intended to increase the dwindling population of the Roman upper classes.

i mean, current social and economic factors are still hitting current people on an individual basis. cell phones are to blame for a lot of things, one of the foremost i think for the decline in time people have to themselves. how are you going to build and maintain a relationship when not answering your phone at 8pm means you're not being a Team Player, for instance. it feels like this has caused more harm than even constant surveillance.
'time people have to themselves' also factoring in time your cellphone takes from you in other ways. a whispering, algorithmic demon in your ear.
i don't think it can be overstated how weirdly bad things are for the american working class when held up against the 'wealth' of this shitstain of a country. if you're a working couple on multiple jobs just to keep a roof over your head along with two or three other roommates, where are you going to find the time and money or energy or or space or confidence for kids. you can't even buy a discretionary snack!
donald trump straight up told people we can't afford daycare! next, he'll say the nigerians are to blame. one wrong move, and everyone is living in their car getting snarked at by security guards in the walmart parking lot. then cps comes and takes your kids to some dingy foster home connected to a GOP-linked human trafficking ring.
the year is 2026 and someone collapses at their amazon job. the manager tells everyone to look away and keep pushing boxes down the line. don't you just want one of these distribution centers providing the jobs for your town.
these companies producing shows about the little man's struggle, lmao. imagine getting kicked the shit out of you and being sold a box of (imaginary) bandaids by your attacker.
