no bosses no masters

my boss is away this week. I'm getting a lot done.

also i am graduating college on friday with three associates and one professional certificate. i'm actually thinking about going back part-time to get my bachelor's. i figure if I'm already going to be in debt for the rest of capitalism and/or my life (whichever ends first) why not go all in?

The stuff with my loan has been a headache so my gut is like "NO DONT DO IT" but like whatevs you get that degree if you want.

I'm spoiled by my lack of student loan payments. but also enticed by the lure of excess loan fund disbursement.

I'm also flirting with the idea of law school.

Lol, you really going to go deep into debt lmao.

May as well get as much debt as you can.

Though I second lettuce on saying suing cops sounds awesome.

go hard or go home. some sort of settlement is my best hope of retirement at this point so may as well just fucking go right?

I may be biased because I work at the university now, technically (I’m on a tuition waiver for my masters as a grad student)… but straight up, education is awesome! Go for it!

I think Ben Franklin - when he wasn’t parting down with classy French prostitutes and getting hammered by 11am - said it the best “pour all of your money into your head because nobody can ever take it away from you then.” I usually don’t like quotes from those sorts of people, but that’s a solid quote. At least for now, the knowledge you get cannot be revoked.

And don’t be disheartened about the money! I managed to pay off close to $65k of my first career’s loans after grinding for a significant time period. It’s not ideal, but if you’re extremely privileged (such as myself) and have a good support network, they can get paid off. That’s the way this capitalism thing works, so if you can play “the game” and you get something out of it that is truly yours… go ahead and do it.

I guess that makes me kind of a poser radical, but my wife and I have a house and a fairly comfortable life now. Which is good for the kids and provides some stability. Still like I said, pour your money into your head, then nobody can take it away from you.

Lemon.

I am thinking we do the trains flintstone style with little holes we can stick our legs through.

Been feeling really confident lately, its been really nice.

Been reading (not doing ... yet) about chaos magic. I find it both fascinating and boring.

As we might imagine, emerging AI-related projects include world-scale identification based on retina scans towards building a global AI-based UBI. Not saying this or others will be successful, but this is a kind of world governance move being made.

God it's really blatantly obvious that JFK killed himself. I can't believe no one can figure that out.

JFK was gonna get assassinated by the CIA. So to troll them JFK used his psychic powers to do a freaky Friday with a CIA informant. But the problem is Lee Harvey in JFK's body would just let the CIA know.

So Jfk To troll the CIA convinced Lee Harvey Oswald to assassinate him for the CIA. Then jfk body swapped with Lee when jfk saw him aiming his rifle. Jkf took the shit killing his body. Then was gonna get a high rank in the CIA to destroy it from within and then after he drains the swamp he would take over the body of the current president.

But the issue uccurded when LHO was then killed by the cia rather than promoted. So jfk was assanited by the cia but on accident

U prob feel silly that u havnt thought of something so simple.

I do feel silly, you are 100% spot on right there.

I got a letter from the government the other day.

I opened and read it, but didn't burn it yet. It's an invitiation to a survey for crime victims. The letter states that the survey will not ask me if I have broke the law myself. But it is still basically asking me to snitch.

So I'm just wondering, should I completely ignore it or should I use it for the advantage of writing "fuck the law" in an official government survey?

PointNemo wrote

Probably best to ignore.

The letter would look good in my trash can. In fact, it already looks good in my trash can. But if it would look better in my fireplace is a question that I have yet to answer.

EDIT: I mean I got some more paper and carboard to get rid of, I also got a very efficient fireplace with a tall chimney. This is looking like a no-brainer to me.
