    There’s a pretty simple and straightforward way to make them feel and look really stupid for doing this, although it takes time and dedication: hit the gym and get fucking JACKED. Then, whenever they call you by your female dead name in public, everyone will think they’re stupid.



  • You’re absolutely right, it DOESN’T feel good to see so many people getting fucked like this. We SHOULDN’T have to see this in our lifetimes. We’re SUPPOSED to be better than this.

    But in this day and age, in this absolute clusterfucked circus of a timeline, some people are just so goddamn stupid, so deeply indoctrinated, and stubborn, and hateful, and all the other things we associate with modern Republican voters, that the unfortunate truth is that trying to talk to these people, and warn them of the consequences of their actions, just doesn’t work anymore. They don’t wanna hear it, and should you try to tell them, they either legitimately don’t understand, don’t give 2 shits, actively want it, or some combo of all 3 and more.

    And so the only option we have left is letting the idiot blow off his fingers with the firecrackers, while trying to contain the fallout, because at this point they simply will not learn, otherwise. It’s awful, and terrible, and a nasty way to deal with it, but when the people we’re trying to help and save are so adversarial towards anyone trying to help them… all you can do is wait for them to come to you.





  • I’ve been unemployed for over a year, with several years previous experience doing delivery and warehouse/logistical work. These are fields that are constantly in demand, because that’s just how America’s economy is structured. I have sent out so many applications that I have lost count, and I’ve never gotten past the second round of interviews. Whether I use LLMs to cater my resume or not, it doesn’t matter. I’ve talked with multiple recruiters and career counselors, at the advice of parents, friends, and associates, to try and better structure my resume, and they’ve all come back and told me that it’s a “very strong document”, and that there was little to improve on with it. The notion of “just dust off your resume and apply to a bunch of places” has finally, truly failed, and the title of this article is 1000000% correct, because there’s no logical or rational way that the job market could be so supposedly full of opportunities, yet so impossiblly hard to break into, even with years, or even decades of experience.

    WE ARE IN HELL.

    Now I’m back at University, getting a second degree in a field I’m legitimately interested in, and all anyone around me can think to say is “It’s great that you’re trying so hard to get a degree in a field you’re interested in!.. but what are the job prospects of that field? Have you talked to a career counselor about it? Are you sure you want to do this?” because the market is so fucked beyond belief that nobody can even think of pursuing a passion professionally anymore. We are in Hell. We are in Hell, and have been for years, and we won’t be leaving anytime soon, to the detriment of all.

    We are in Hell.










  • Whatever “”“regime”“” they can scrape together in the economic/ecological hellholes they call “states” won’t be enough. The coming AI tech crash, along with the next Housing bubble collapse (that is happening RIGHT NOW in the South, and spreading North!!!) will wipe out whatever regime they can build, because their zones of antiregulation and social destruction will be hit hardest. That said, I pity the unfortunate sods who want to leave but can’t yet; their window is closing pretty quickly, all things considered.

    So yeah, run as fast as you can, as far as you can, and DO NOT LOOK BACK.
