Is downvote you if I could, but my instance can't.

Might be the saddest part of this whole story.

I love this comment.

Met someone at a dive bar recently that was a raging piece of shit MAGAt and went on and on about hating DEI and how white people deserve equality too...

...fucking turns out they also work in HR at a company. Sadly I wasn't able to figure out what company (was hoping to report them). But dear god. Worst HR person ever.

I feel this might be part of it. I love Colbert but I don't like late shows and never watched his except a couple clips online. I know I'm not the only one.

I don't even watch the Daily Show anymore but I always watch Jon Stewart's clips. Again, I can't be the only one.

100%.

Fuck this administration, I hope they burn in the hell they believe in. I hope they all get cancer.

I try my best to find redeeming qualities in everyone, but there is none to be found in them.

I read that in his voice and it worked perfectly. You nailed it.

At peak I (barely) juggled 7. I'm down to 3 now though because the sleep deprivation and stress was too much.

I still meet all deadlines, support the team, and meet or exceed expectations in performance reviews. That might be why it's a little harder to maintain, I know people who don't give two shits about that stuff.

I've probably taken years off my life, but I've bumped up being able to retire a little earlier so I guess it evens out.

Hopefully the homicide rate against ICE staff goes up soon though.

Do they even check their email or voicemails or even messages on Instagram?

True story. I started studying for a final basically the night before the final, but quickly realized I just wanted to play video games instead.

So I spent an hour and a half pulling up all my previous scores in the class, including two copies of the syllabus from two places just to be sure. I made a spreadsheet (in OpenOffice at the time, haha) laying out the scores and weighting them a few different ways per interpretation of the syllabi.

All models basically indicated I could skip the final and sleep in and, worst case, still pass the class by something like 1.2%. I checked, double checked, triple checked my figures.

...and then I spent the night playing video games and purposely didn't set an alarm the next day.

I was very relieved to have passed the class by the 1.2%.

I was not a good student. I do not advise this. I think I graduated by like 0.1 above the minimum required GPA.
