Human. This is account does not reflect the views of my employer.
Tonight I binged ate a bunch of candy and I feel sick. This is not what I thought it would be to live the dream.

It's super tough balancing being a good employee and remembering that you owe nothing to any employer. At the end of the day, they'll have no problem showing you the door when you leave.

So I recently accepted a new position at a blue state college and resigned from my red state college where I taught FT for 12 years. Feeling anxious about making a drastic life change given the state of the world right now.

Tonight I started deleting my phone and FB contacts. I'm done with bullies. I don't care if you're family or not, you're not going to gaslight and bully my kids and myself.

Hi, I'm an extrovert with social anxiety. So life is just a constant roller coaster.

I'm too afraid to out myself as a hard core liberal to my friends. I like to think some don't know still.

This is blood-boiling. Charles Rogers was awarded the Medal of Honor in Vietnam after being wounded three times leading the defense of a position.

Google his name and the entry below comes up. When you click, you'll see the page has been deleted and the URL changed to include "DEI medal."

While I agree with Chris Kluwe on the issues and I'm glad he's an advocate, I always feel like he's working to self promote. It feels like he get attention. A good example of #virtuesignalling It's annoying.

I give up. I'm so angry. I'm daydreaming looking at places to move to... Benedict option & alone in the woods is sounding pretty good rn but I'm also a mom. I want better for my kids. I don't know what to do. What's the point? Can we just try to be kind and think critically?

You cannot determine whether you saved or cost money based solely on one side of the ledger.

Example: I saved my household $2K by not paying the mortgage.

Tonight our 7 y.o. said that some of the kids at her school were talking about "Elon Musk getting a concussion in football and he talks funny now and might not be in the super bowl." It helps to imagine #elon as such when you hear him now.

Hassan, through tears: "I am the proud mother of a 36 year old with severe cerebral palsy. And a day does not go by when I don't think about what I did I do when I was pregnant with him... So please do not suggest that anybody in this body doesn't want to know what the cause of autism is"

I blocked JD Vance and Donald Trump on the social media platform: front of head text. Now all my posts on that site are ignored. It's eerie. It's so creepy that POTUS made open threats to Zuckerberg and now they have to work for his purpose.

Hegseth must be pounding the vodkas about now. Unfortunately it didn’t take long for people to die after the safety commission was dissolved. Condolences to all who have lost someone tonight.
