Reading about how students today are simply using AI to cheat and write papers on books they barely read, I feel a sense of pity at how an entire generation is robbing themselves of something wonderful: the thrill of successfully bullshitting your way to an "A" on an paper on a book you barely read.

Don't piss on my boots and tell me it's raining. Piss on my boots and tell me it's raining the most perfect, beautiful rain, probably ever, like they do on the plains of Spain and other places as well, but mainly on the plains, and we like that.

The comfort of knowing that one day the work will be done, and the relief felt when it finally is...only to be left with the reality that the work was all I had, and the fear that there will be so little else left...

It will always baffle me how anyone can be surprised to discover that a person who makes their living pretending to be someone/something they're not doesn't just limit that to their work.

Before today, I had never thought "what would be a distressingly large amount of anti-diahrrea drugs to see someone with" and now I will never wonder again. Twelve bottles, by the way. Twelve.

I can't tell if I like pumpkin pie more as a pie in and of itself, or as a Cool Whip delivery system.

Not to be cynical, but more and more, it feels like all those lessons and morals I remember from all the media I consumed growing up about the importance of sportsmanship, honesty, integrity, and how "cheaters never prosper"? ...starting to wonder if that might have been a bunch of bullshit.

Sometimes, I'm stuck listening to Fox News blaring from next door. Sometimes, the people on the TV laugh, and every single time anyone does, it sounds like the laugh of someone who can only experience joy while kicking a puppy.

More than missing having the time and energy to do the things I want, I miss wanting to do those things when I have the time or energy, and not when I'm stuck at work feeling myself slowly eroding.

Things I enjoy/ed (time permitting): - play video games - watch people play video games - experience movies via clips on Youtube and Wikipedia summaries rather than watch the actual movie - watch cooking videos - breaking out into cold sweat at thought of cooking more complex than boiling pasta

As neat as it would be to claim I don't post on "the other place" out of a sense of principle, I never really posted much to begin with, and what little I did wasn't worth much anyway. This is not likely to change, here. I'm TRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAASH

Every new follower notification I get, I can't help but wonder "why?" It's not like I DO anything worth keeping tabs on. Are people just going down a list?

I came across an outdated guide on image grid sizing crop/proportions for bsky earlier, and I felt it was important to create an updated version! Please use this new guide instead!

Driving home at night, oncoming Jeep's LED headlights blasting my retinas with the power of the sun in quadruplicate, making me want to stick a large mirror out my window, see how they like it.
