Yep, work to the bone, it your still part-time so you don’t get any benefits. Your schedule sounds absolutely awful. You should look into compression socks if you haven’t yet. They help you if you’re on your feet all day.

It helps that I’m an introvert so I don’t need that much interaction but still…it does get kinda lonely. The occasional after work hangout or family time is good tho. And I try to get in some reading time or something in between everything else.

Bro I just want to make enough for rent, groceries and utilities. I don’t want anything else 😭😭😭

After a year of cheerleading genocide, now these news agencies are finding their humanity. Just like they do with every atrocity of the west.

It is important to note that exceeding 1.5C in a single year is not equivalent to breaching the Paris Agreement limit. The goal is generally considered to refer to long-term warming – typically over two or three decades – rather than annual temperatures that include the short-term influence of natural fluctuations in the climate, such as El Niño.

Fucking lmao. So by the time the politicians are ready to say we’ve breached 1.5, we’ll all be dead. Good to know.

I will be depressed. I will be sad. I will be angry. I will blow up at liberals and conservatives.

Oh, you meant about Trump?

Trump will begin implementing some policies from Project 2025, especially around restrictions surrounding abortion/reproductive health, LGBTQ rights, and immigration/refugee policies.

You’ll also see a reversal of many of the good Biden-era domestic achievements surrounding labour and consumer protections (maybe by gutting the NLRLB, but that may be a longer term project) and definitely getting rid of Lina Khan.

More Trump-appointed judges at the lower levels, even if not at the Supreme Court (within the six-month timeframe) and beginning the process of staffing federal agencies with Trump loyalists.

Begin the rollback of EPA and environmental standards, maybe gesture towards leaving the Paris Accords.

Probably some more stuff too.

People really underestimate climate change (esp. wrt its impact on global south vs on north).

Also I don’t like his policy towards Iran. And let’s see if he is worse on Palestine or not. Plus it’ll give a boost to fascist parties everywhere.

The only thing I’ve found that numbs this feeling is one that also numbs everything else - depression.

But then that leads to other issues, especially, you know, suicidal thoughts. So, it’s not a solution.

Best to just focus on your loved ones. I don’t even follow this advice myself tho lol.

I don’t know anything about anything here but this is the first time I’m seeing someone use straight as one of the identities to defend themselves lmao.
