Damn
I think I bombed the interview with the county transit agency
Also I've entered a doom loop sorta speaks with my current job. My wages is slashed, my morale tanks, they get mad at me that I'm underperforming, rinse and repeat
Feeling super down. Bunch of stuff just happening all at the same time. Requested PTO from work and I can't wait for it to come up so I can try and get away from it all... Then again it just feels like I'll just have more time to overthink everything
Happy caik day to you, happy caik day to you
May the Gongchandang bless you
Happy caik day to you!
Horray!
I don't know how I did it, but I actually watched all of FD's video essay on the Kendrick smackdown of Drake in one day. Usually I'd take a few days to consume an hour long video essay, let alone a 3+ hour one. Credit to how well put together and edited it is. Highly recommended.
During your work hours?
That's the power of a compelling video, baby!
Yeah, things slowed down towards the end of my day so that helped quite a bit lol.
The first date was a success, and a second date is almost certain to follow. I'm really happy with how it went. There was already a fair bit of chemistry and laughter between us, which is a good sign.
I sent the girl I'm seeing some leftist videos. Now I'm waiting for her response. (No worries, she's pro-Palestine, but I also sent one about Venezuela.) The Venezuela video is the one that has me a bit worried because I'm not yet sure where she stands on everything. I hope she's as based as I think she is.
At this point, make it standard in international leftist politics that critical support for living anti-imperialist, progressive-aligned countries is a prerequisite...
as Aru would've said... as for me, I say, thank God...
I have a close friend that can speak 5 languages (most major Asian languages + English) while I am out here struggling with 2.
They are way too OP on geoguessr
Huh, what are those Asian languages?
If even one is tonal, I'll be really impressed yet not surprised
They can speak and understand Hindi/Urdu and Tamil.
Read and speak Standard Chinese, Malay and English.
They said it’s normal in their country.
Malaysian, huh
I'm wondering on Hindustani and Putonghua... Person's sounds like a good translator for India and China...
I'm pretty solid these days. Just reading more. Trying to get back into that mode in my youth where I would rampage through books. It's kinda weird but I have realized that reading as a pasttime is like 1000% antithetical to being in the information age. Just sitting there reading (maybe listening to some music too) really slows you down and makes you realize you're only doing one thing. You're doing one thing actively rather than sorta doing like 12 things and doing all those 12 things in a rather disengaged manner.
I'm not even reading "heavy" books either, mostly just fiction, but just sitting there and reading is I think helping me fix my brain. That's all highly speculative of course but I think reading is the cure for internet poisoning

You know what's funny... having to read a book online cuz one can't buy the actual book itself... so reading it online kinda leaves one open to distraction...
(2nd person removed; sounds too accusative)
unhinged ranting
that's my predicament, and I know it seems unproductive, but trust me, I will summarize the whole 3 volumes of Das Kapital, in the near future of next year, god damn it! I've already read Volume I and Volume II seems to be crushing me a bit...
I've copied down texts, I've underlined and made notes (CHATGPT'd admittedly), and I will not stop

Even reading .PDF books or something on my desktop doesn't seem to work for me. I need the physical thing for me to actually engage with it. I don't know what it is for me, but I need that analog feeling of turning a page. It really makes me realize I'm "Actually reading something" rather than "on computer". Being "on computer" reading isn't reading for me.
I mean, wtf was he thinking, promoting black "American nativism" against Latine migrants, using the same language that the Black American community has been targeted by...?
He's delulu, as one of my sisters would say... no one except his supporters are probably licking up his slop and saying "good 'un, Donny"
Damn at first i thought he was just confused and was thinking about nikki haley in his head but ts is crazy. I guess doubling down is trumps style so not surprised.
I just started watching and wtf is up with having him come on to the stage to those dope ass beats
My brain is failing me, I heard the song millions of times, but I can't remember the name.I found a YouTube link in your comment. Here are links to the same video on alternative frontends that protect your privacy:
I got forced to attend a weekend long covid party.
Fuck liberals.
The Bangladesh protests have gotten a bunch of my family down. The level of violence that the Awami League pulled on the students is just horrifying to watch. I hate USA so much it should die I should be living in Bangladesh not this sundown town hellhole.
Protests are still ongoing even though Bangladesh is so incredibly hot right now. I'm convinced that there's not a lot of western coverage because the western journalists would not survive a day in Dhaka from exposure.
Hey at least Bangladesh mentioned, we are known for loving latam football players way too much and getting genocided by the US
If only I could get to live in the Bangladeshi Soviet Republic
Huh, the Awami league has met the fate of many other potential-revolutionary demsoc countries of the Global South...
Tomorrow? I mean, nothing's new on the EM POC front...
Mod, please ban the mod. This censorship has gone too far.
Idk, you butt-pressed it by accident? Fat finger error?
Have you tried Eternity? I love it. I always used Infinity on reddit so this is perfect for me. Highly recommend it!
Not sure about mod tools or whatever, though. And there are no Hexbear emojis.
