Do not lose hope. Scream, yell, demand better, and say these thieves' names. You are being given less so that others can have more, you are having things taken from you by corporations because they must always please the nebulous form of the shareholder.

One thing I appreciate about Elden Ring is that it allows me to fight like I do in real life (diving to the ground the moment I see my enemy even begin to move, trying to back away while chugging a juice box, etc.)

You have analysis paralysis over what restaurant to order from. I have analysis paralysis over which app to open up to browse which restaurant to order from. Though not exactly the same, we're kind of similar in that we are hungry and can not make a decision rn.

We're on the verge of being able to mass produce meat that has been grown in a lab from animal cells, with no animal having to suffer and be slaughtered to produce it. A potential revolution in nutrition and land use and ethics and energy consumption. So of course Ron DeSantis outlaws it.

Here is my optimism for the day: despite everything rotten in higher education, the students are proving right now that the project is worth it. They are validating the core value of the university even as they expose institutional bankruptcy. These students have *learned.*
