there's an old joke that hasn't aged well about how the loner high schooler reading list forking between rand and tolkien. paraphrased, one of the choices was absurd fantasy and that the other had hobbits. it's not been my experience. if a person reads one, they're probably going to read, or have already read, the other. it's all a hot mess ping-ponging around the same Venn space and headspaces (Thiel) as stuff like starship troopers. funny how these guys are now a big part of the drive into furthering big state mass surveillance. big cogs in the machine of bureaucracy! but yeah, go ahead and post some more about the 'men of the west' and libertarian ideals, whatever flavor of the year that is at the time. pricks.

i think there's a wretchedness in society and education that pushes people to build their identities around that crap, but that's another subject.

I have elected to not make eye-contact and smile weakly, I find this works well in most situations.

Coming up to the end of the tax year, will see how far I can hold out in the next tax year.
Retiring is tempting but risky-ish at this point, more cash is also tempting.

I want to delete my assistant.

She is an older Republican in her 60s. She sounds just as fun to be around as you think.

I got dressed up this week for several things I had to do while at work.

She comments that "Macbeth thinks he is a big shot now." "Macbeth has something important today "

She is also rude to and about the lady teachers that I talk to.

One of them comes to my room for help with something and she stares us down like we are doing something wrong.

that sounds like it sucks, but how much can you be all like "she's being inappropriate to coworkers" when you've been poaching women from work.

The best assistant I ever had was an older Egyptian man whose English wasn't great. He was a principal in Egypt but just an assistant in the U.S.

He never created more work for me. When the one substitute teacher I was dating came by, he would quickly leave the room through the backdoor to give us privacy to talk. We never fooled around in the room. Smart enough to not do that. But he still gave us the space we needed to just talk and relax. He never asked questions or made a single comment. And he definitely never talked politics with me or complained about anything. A good man.
