@justint1me4u The 8-ish weeks I spent reading all of the vampire chronicles were genuinely some of the best weeks of my life.

i don't even know what to say. claudia being 5 years old? louis staying with armand KNOWING he took part in claudia's death? claudia and louis kissing on the lips and louis comparing their relationship to a marriage? all of them being white and louis being a slave owner...?

@_Loverella @PopBase I'm terrified of the mental breakdown you're gonna have at 30.

Lena Dunham shares that she cheated on Jack Antonoff in her new memoir ‘Famesick.’
She adds that it was around the same time Jack had developed a “closeness” with a “teen pop star”, which she says “struck an odd note.”
The pair dated for years around 2012-2018.

@genzalternative Putting GERD and EOE is crazyyy. Girl just throw up like the rest of us and take Nexium when it gets bad. Some of these things don’t actually need a diagnosis.
English
its so funny how im still getting accused of faking by twitter doctors even though i have the labs, mris, ultrasounds, etc that prove all of this. most of these r comorbidities they go together. u guys r insane.
haņņah ♿️✨@genzalternative
i got accused of having borderline munchausens and literally kicked out of the hospital bc i was in severe pain after my spinal surgery and i should’ve been “fixed”, mind you this is my official diagnose list all of which i have been professionally diagnosed for through testing.

@BrowsandybobS @11975MHz I would expect the kid to know complex numbers. If they do great, if they say undefined, you mark an x- and if they're curious - note that we'll talk about complex numbers one day.
English
One thing I quickly learned as a child in public schooling is that teachers are not pleasantly surprised when you know something beyond what they do.
They really, really don't like that one bit.
Especially when you follow that up with "neener, neener."
Physics Memes@ThePhysicsMemes
They’re not not wrong. Should they have gotten the points? #ITeachPhysics
English
@BrowsandybobS @11975MHz Because the teacher is discouraging the student here. This should be an opening for discussion, not an X. There is no world where the teacher should be limiting the student.
English
@ErnstJunger1895 @angturil @11975MHz So this is rage bait & fake anyway , I don’t think she should’ve deducted points but I think the question is clear enough for that level of education. It’s probably a 4th grade test. She doesn’t need to confuse 4th graders by mentioning classical vs quantum

@MaybeSoland @83dollaroring For a PhD sure, but most MS programs are self funded.

@83dollaroring Remember being told by a math professor in high school that you shouldn’t do one unless you’re being paid

my masters degree paid me $29k per year

My master's degree cost like 25k.

@flyingfruitkno1 @verymidengineer @WaterwornPebble If he’s jobless and isn’t applying to startups or less prestigious roles for experience then he’s a moron
English
@verymidengineer @WaterwornPebble I assume he's not applying for jobs in 80-100k salary range.
He may be applying to jobs in Wall Street or FAANG companies which are not easy to get.

@thrxwingupblood @beckyk21k @dollshojo This is the dumbest sentence I’ve ever heard? What would she get? Money. She’s also clearly unstable so she doesn’t have to get something out of it except enjoyment.
English
@beckyk21k @dollshojo Literally what would she get from lying about being assaulted by her own brother who is also a very famous guy except ostracized by her family and shamed by the general public, who lies abt that
English
him being gay should serve as an eye-opener about how sexual abuse, especially sexual abuse against children, very often has little to do with “attraction” and more so with people who want to hurt children and do it because they can.
The Tatva@thetatvaindia
🚨Sam Altman sued by his own sister for sexual abuse and rape Annie Altman has filed a lawsuit accusing Sam Altman of sexually abusing and raping her between 1997 and 2006. She says the abuse started when she was 3 years old and he was 12
English
@dollshojo You can be a Sam Altman and ai hater and acknowledge that none of this crap likely happened
English
@StevenMarcen @NorthxNorthw @escapefrommelos I saw one of her interviews where she straight up said she knew he wasn’t passing but didn’t think it was a problem bc they moved him to the next grade level (not quoting directly)….i mean what did you think was gonna happen
English
@NorthxNorthw @escapefrommelos Lived in Baltimore for several years. West Baltimore high schools really are that bad. Hard to blame the schools there’s only so much they can do. It’s a pervasive problem across every family in those districts
English
you might ask “what is the point?” but this system achieves two very important goals:
1) keeps destructive people like this “off the streets” (at least in principle)
2) provides millions of voters with makework jobs as “teachers” and “administrators” to facilitate the charade
English
@DrewPavlou It’s also like….what was happening was bad enough you don’t need to start making crap up
English
This is just retarded and if you believe shit like this you should feel bad about yourself.
English
@MarxistHeathen @xenopwussy @helixisms She doesn’t want a trans women as her roommate, does she have to spell it out for you
English
@xenopwussy @helixisms yeah they’re literally making a point that this person is just blaming their own belief that trans women fundamentally have more in common w cis men than trans men do on their cat. they just didn’t phrase that in terf-speak for you to recognize it.
English
(not at op) this is so crazy to be like "my cat's scared of men so you have to have xx chromosomes" when it's the hormones. the cat doesn't smell chromosomes, dumbass, it smells hormonal differences. just say the cat doesn't like men and leave it at that

@ukedulac Ig. I’m more-so remembering in qotd his interactions w khayman and Armand’s interactions w khayman as well. I kind of skimmed B&G but he didnt seem particularly impressive there either
English
@BrowsandybobS mm i think armand could be lifted up there because he’s exceptionally strong vampire and has taken to vampirism very well, but mael is 2000 years old which has to account for something
English
@emilykmay You can still technically reach out to 1-2 of your professors from 15 years ago. They won’t remember you but remind them of yourself.
English
question: if someone were to be considering applying to grad school but they have been mostly a SAHM for 8 years and graduated college 15 years ago...where are we getting letters of recommendation? my daughter's Medicaid caseworker? my son's preschool teacher when I was room mom?
English
@DrElonMonkey @wavefuncle @dollarsanddata I’m sorry but my parents went to school in a different country and I learned all these things from my peers and so did they. We just talked to people older than us. I’d stop people in lines in career fairs and ask about what they did/they’re doing.
English
@wavefuncle @dollarsanddata Its a lot different when your parent is telling you to do something vs some kid that you just drank a bottle of vodka with last night.
English
A lot of this comes down to poorer kids just not knowing what to do.
I didn't know that I had to apply for an internship in the WINTER of my sophomore year to get a sophomore summer internship to leverage into a junior summer internship to get a full-time offer senior year.

Even after graduating from university, people who grew up in poverty face significant pay gaps when compared with their more affluent peers. @annastansbury explains 👇
English
@delillostan Because most people don’t work prestigious jobs? Idu this, it’s pretty obvious from your second year of college onwards what you need to do to get a good job. I didn’t even learn it from my parents, I learned from the older college students.
English
None of my friends did anything remotely prestigious. They work in government or at engineering firms or went to grad school. I never thought of myself as a charity case, but lately my whole undergrad experience has felt like I was just handed a giant sham check on local TV

there are invisible ley lines to prestigious/lucrative careers: recruiting timelines, networking kabuki rituals, internship sequences that are only obvious if someone clued you in (or if you misspent your youth lurking on WSO). Many first-gen kids find out too late; most think getting into a top school meant that they already “made it”
