Remember, EM POC only!
Just brewed up the coffee, feeling like a doomer, but at least I’m about to be a caffeinated one.
How are all my fellow EM POC comrades doing?
my favourite activity is watching crackers make shit up and believe it, especially the more “left leaning” ones, end up seeing stuff like “of course some Haitians eat household pets, but that’s not enough to justify racism against them and there’s good ones that don’t eat pets” from time to time
Picture of the average whitey when left alone with their thoughts:
It does seem like they’re addicted to outrage. Conservatives are constantly finding things to get upset over, but even libs will glue themselves to the screen looking at Trump’s antics. I don’t understand it. It’s too exhausting to constantly plug yourself into the outrage machine. Like go watch a movie or something.
I think the outrage culture probably exists among EMPOCs, though I’m struggling to think of any examples.
Like go watch a movie or something.
Can’t even do that because now they’ll even lose their minds for the most minimal repesentation of anything other than CIS white people.
I remember the IMDB message board would always be filled with chuds losing their shit any time a movie had anything other than white cishet straight men.
There’s a movie called “The Invitation” and it takes place in LA. A bunch of people were in the message boards complaining about diversity within the cast and I’m just like “That’s a pretty typical friend group when you live in a city with over 1 million people?”
…aaaaaaand I ate a ban from chapo for pointing out settler ideological fascist gun fantasies. Whitey got mad and used his mod powers to nuke my comments. Which admin do I talk to about that?
They were doing the thing where they made up a scenario, freaked out about the thing they just made up, then got mad when this was pointed out.
I’ve completely lost my motivation
I haven’t painted in months and I’ve been completely slacking on drawing. I just feel like there’s not much point to what I make because late stage capitalism spoils everything. Coupled with depression, anxiety, and a disability, it’s hard to get motivated. 😪
Just got laid off from MEGACORP on Monday. They did a big “restructure” so now I’m unemployed. As my homie comically said I have become the stereotypical “unemployed black man” archetype THE MAN fears.
Ah yes, the “restructure”. One of the earliest lessons I learned when I started working was that anytime corp talked about re-anything it probably means layoffs are coming soon. My first manager, who was pretty cool, was offered a lower position with less pay or severance. He went with the severance package and never looked back.
No plans yet, still getting my bearing. Never been laid off before. Right now I’m just focusing on getting my savings and stuff in order and making sure I have some runway. Other than that, find a new job of course
I really hope the Alliance of Sahel States is successful and improves people’s lives and conditions. The people in these regions deserve a win
Unfortunately the terrorism situation looks incredibly bad (France was already useless at tackling it though)
Ooh, I’m early! Well I guess late, because I’m up doing homework.
Doing okay, I guess. I’ve been better, I’ve been worse. This “college” thing is not really geared towards how my brain works, but I’m doing my best.
