i’m so fucking grateful the era of “triggered???” jokes is coming to a close because even if u have the soul to disregard what they’re making fun of i swear to you. every single one of the people who made these jokes in person. caused the longest awkward moments i have ever lived through. i have literally never heard this word uttered without a massive wave of shame emitting from the source, somehow mirroring back a million times so we are all forced to suffer the secondhand embarrassment of a human being being utterly and incomprehensibly not funny
Pretty sure “money can’t buy happiness” is meant to actually mean “don’t neglect emotional health and caring for the people in your life in the pursuit of more wealth than you need”, but instead middle-class and rich people use it to tell poor people “don’t strive to have financial security even though I have it”.
is it okay to smell every single candle when you’re in the candle section of a store? i’m asking for a friend. i’m kidding. i’m not asking for a friend. i was asking for me. and i actually don’t care if it’s okay. i’m going to do it anyway
how come conservative students think they’re smarter than professors with doctorates and shit
conservative students swear that every university professor is some radical leftist with an agenda when usually it’s a professor that just uses critical thinking skills, context, and has empathy
if you swear all the professors you encounter are wrong, it might actually be that your opinions are outdated, bigoted, and incorrect lmao
This is actually the reason behind the popular notion within conservative circles that universities have a “liberal bias.”
Consistently, conservative students will leave higher ed because they perceive critical thinking, self-critique, and open discussion as attacks on their selfhood, rather than as a process of refining ideas and arguments. All of their accusations about how the people who disagree with them are just “too sensitive” are nothing more than projection, because they very idea that they should question their own assumptions is something they believe would only make them weak.
buying ppl things is SUCH a rush.. even if it’s just like.. a bag of their favorite chips or whatever.. the thought of someone experincing even a split-second burst of happiness bc they didn’t expect to get some of their favorite chips that day? what a thrill! love it
