Definitely sketchy. Of course M, F are the only options, none of these people have learned a damn thing since they barely passed 9th grade biology back in 1982 or whatever πŸ€¦πŸ»β€β™€οΈ

OMG, no. I turn off the number/dot on the app icon, otherwise I'd break out in a cold sweat and have heart palpitations every time I looked at my phone

I especially love the 129 drafts. If I had a dollar for every time I wondered why I never heard back from someone, then realized my email to them was still in drafts 😬😬

Right? Are they feeding these forms directly into the DOGE machine, or will the muskrats have to export from the Census Bureau first?

WTF. That's enough for a down payment on a house in Seattle.

I don't really understand the need for that kind of marketing - who is going to apply for a hospital job based on their stadium sponsorship? And most patients either choose to go where their insurance will cover, or in the case of emergency, wherever the ambulance takes them.

OMG, I saw some posts about it shortly after yours. We are truly living in a bizarre and terrifying timeline.

It was pretty vaguely defined, for me; it's more like this pervasive sense of never being quite good enough

Yep, there's our organ bank 😱

Yep. Good test scores, good grades, and generally "a pleasure to have in class", but I didn't even consider learning to study til college, and I didn't really learn how to learn until several years into my third job.

Also I was paralyzed by depression whenever I wasn't vibrating with anxiety, so 😬

Thanks, I actually had a mostly terrible day, and then I talked to my therapist about how I am probably going to need accommodations at work and how that makes me feel guilty about not living up to my potential. So uh, thanks for the reminder I guess 😭

Yep. Waaaay too much of our current reality resembles that show, it's alarming

There's a Black Mirror episode about this . . . .

So how long before we're running a scheme like "The Unit" -- in which [SPOILERS]

Yep, right-wing Christians have been building up to this moment for decades, playing a long game while everyone else hand-waived the unhinged takeover plans. It's not just the obvious cult in rural Idaho - it's also the local Baptist church where nice kids wash cars for camp money.

lol I will go so far to say that people knew that Kamala Harris had better ideas than the current guy but didn't vote for her because her presidency would've disrupted the social hierarchies they subscribe to.

If a Black woman can be president, she can also run a company, a classroom, a TOWN.

Yes. There's an answer for every question; everything that's worth knowing is known. I sometimes miss the certainty! And then I remember that often the answer is to hand-waive suffering because "God's ways are not our ways", or that what's "known" doesn't even remotely match real world experience.
