several years later i found a remote+travel hybrid role, i had never wfh'd before. yall are right. it is sweet to chill with your dog

For the first time I saw a show that actually addressed COVID as being a thing that happened, and that was jarring and I realized that once we went back to normal, media just was like, “fuck it we will never speak on this again.”

The higher the pitch of their voice talking to each other is indicative of much hate she has for her. The higher the voice, the deeper the pit of hatred.

there's a Mad Men line of them having 'more failed artists and intellectuals than the Third Reich' which always made me laugh. fascism has indeed historically been built around those who failed advancement through traditional metrics, the ultimate grievance politics to legitimize failure and mobilize losers.
