eternal september

@tensorbodega It’s crazy how in finance/law, all nighters are kind of gone, or at least drastically reshaped. I heard war stories about how juniors used to have to stay late at the printers before a closing to make sure all the books were ready, now everyone goes home, all digital everything

Sort of - clubs kept this stuff on life support but the real load bearing aspect of the city that kept 24/7 businesses alive was industry (manufacturing, finance, healthcare) & all of the supporting jobs that came with it: logistics, janitorial, taxis, service workers -cyclically

I hate meeting people who were raised by cool parents. ohhh you grew up listening to your dad’s record collection. fuck you. I had to invent Lou Reed from first principles

meeting a woman who might be trans “are you… you know… followed by nicholas decker?”

6 years ago, Lana Del Rey had a question for the culture.

@FrenlyOfficer and what did you do?

I was voted most likely to succeed in my very large high school class. The girl who won became a doctor lol. She also married a doctor (a surgeon). She went to med school with her husband but they met in undergrad. Very nice couple.

@agraybee it’s “hukou” btw

Why is every person on this show a gentrifier arguing for an American hokou system to assuage their guilt.

@fujohegel reminds me of this chaser i went out with a few times in uni

@tsuowa let’s go habs!

why did everyone on twitter just become canadian

@deanjiio The way I instantly knew who this was referring to before I clicked it

I LOVE SELF HARM

@fujohegel @dollarnuftynuf You haven’t done anything cancellable

polymarket should let you bet on which white trans girl is gonna get cancelled next.

@stacycay Bartlesville will be the next big airline hub mark my words

Yeah sure let’s reroute all international travel to Oklahoma. Why not

@GershonManda Funding doesn’t define UBI though; universal, unconditional, periodic cash to all residents is UBI, regardless of minerals, tax revs, etc PFD is literally the canonical US example in UBI scholarship It’s not a stock bc you can’t sell, transfer, or retain shares if you leave

We give the state mineral rights on our land. They take a portion of the mineral income and invest it in a fund. We get a dividend from that fund every year. It's more like a stock investment for every resident. However, the Alaska Legislature has been stealing the people's portion of that fund since 2016.

It’s so funny to me that Alaskans get UBI

@GershonManda care to elaborate? it sounds like a cash payment to all without means testing or work requirements, no?

@acelamaxxing This is not UBI. Not even close.

@KG6783 @sharghzadeh Literally just AirTrain to Jamaica and take the LIRR…

@sharghzadeh The thing that sucks about JFK is getting in and out and that's mostly due to construction. The terminal itself is fine, it's the airport, were you expecting to go to a five star hotel? You can take the A train from JFK to Manhattan, but it takes forever.

Traveling abroad as an American is a humiliation ritual of sorts, it's a reminder that everything is better except "muh GDP" and "muh freedoms."

@sharghzadeh just wait like two months until the glorious JFK New Terminal One opens up along with its improved elements of the JFK RUGTC plan… will be stunning…

It was still there !

security made me throw away my juul2 (imported from britain btw not even available in amerikkka) so I stashed it on the stairs outside, what are the odds it’s still there afterwards

I don’t like this new trend of giving nothing during graduations, not even a diploma holder or something

conflicted on if I should try to fatredistributionmaxx with domp/pio or if I should skinnymode with reta
