Look at this cool comic event in Dublin that was all masked, in this year of 2025 🙏 the event organizers provided masks to all who attended. It's totally possible to have cool events that still keep the most vulnerable us safe ❤️ I truly wish more events did this.

Holy fuck, you can't even imagine how bad it is until you actually listen.
The only thing less human than these AI dub performances is the decision to sign off on them
A company this big can pay human actors a decent wage, not produce slop that intentionally removes the human element.

Anytime I see “Users on X were quick to—“ that tab gets closed. There’s no news worth quoting people on the Nazi site for.
If you’re a journalist who’s still on Twitter, from now on in your writing you have to replace “the American people want” with “troll bots in Eastern Europe demand”
Being there makes your judgment suspect. I don’t care how savvy you think you are, you’re marinating in a disinformation campaign.

Companies when I spend an hour writing a customized cover letter, spend 30 minutes to find keywords in the job post, another 2 hours carefully tailoring my CV with those keywords, and another 30 minutes to input it all again into their third-party application portal:

Sorry for the rant on your feeds.
Feeling the weight of a lot of unmet goals this year.
I had really hoped to make strides in my professional life this year and it just seems like the universe, economy and industry just said “Nah”.

It’s getting obvious that I’m burned out. 8 people at work this week have expressed concern over how exhausted I look.
I’ve averaged 5 hours of sleep per day for the year, used all my PTO on my kids’ sick days and an unsuccessful job hunt, and am paid peanuts to do the work of 3 people.

One method of Japanese study that I would recommend everyone: Shadowing.
My prep course for university here included a class specifically on shadowing where we recorded ourselves.

3 companies I applied to use it, but each time I had to fill out a form with the same info on my resume.
Despite all 3 using the same platform, it doesn’t have a login. So instead of applying a template and adjusting details applicable to the job, I need to re-enter ｅｖｅｒｙ ｄｅｔａｉｌ.
