Whats up party people in the place to be!
I’ve been thinking about what to write for the last few days…
Truth be told, I’m trying to mentally prepare to leave my job, although, I don’t think I’m going to leave my job for at least another 3 or 4 years.
There’s no pressure to leave my job either, but I want to increase my quality of life by going after a bigger paycheck, that’s all there is to it.
I’m trying to leverage my social media, threads, the twitter rival just released a few days ago, but it’s not as exciting as twitter, if you ask me. Twitter is like, grandfathered in, and allows nudity, which threads does not. I suppose if you have an issue with nudity, threads is the better option, but really all the good memes are still on Twitter. We haven’t seen the migration yet, truly.
I have youtube playing in the background, distracting me from my own thoughts. Oh!
There’s a lot of hub-bub about anti-capitalist movements, leftist politics, etc, and it seems to have a lot of traction. My question is however, why don’t these thought leaders ever come together? Or is uniting under one umbrella the mindset of the enemy? In one book I read/listened to on audible “Mutual Aid” by Dean Spade, the author says that Mutual Aid movements should not come together or be (and i forgot his exact words) assimilated into government systems, because thats how capitalism stays alive, by adopting policy it can regulate that may please the masses one day and utterly destroy their hope in the next instant. But if that’s the case, if we cant band together, if we can’t hope the government adopts meaningful policy, what the fuck is there to do? Keep struggling and pow-wowing with your buddies until the sun burns out? It didn’t give me much hope, and now I’m listening to “Capitalist Realism” by Mark Fisher which has so far, proven to be equally if not more daunting an experience.
But that’s the bad news.
The good news is I finally feel like I have some direction I want to go in as far as my career goes. It’s not exactly anything I’m particularly “passionate” about, but it’s something I’m interested in, and pretty much engage in everyday, so I hope it works out, but who knows if my opinion or my min changes in the coming years.
Now, I have to start my homework.
Later Gators.
