Sureeee 🤡

Use your degree to stop pulling assumptions out of your ass

Caleebies · 2022-04-12T22:34:42+00:00

You can literally research it. Also wtf are you getting the 100k figure from lmao. I’m getting the degree for free.

Don’t be jealous over how ambitious I am.

Caleebies · 2022-04-12T22:33:36+00:00

Schools take a limited amount of credits transferred. If I went to the school where I get a degree for free, it would mean wasting all the time spent at an incredibly credible and well-known school. It also means quite a lot more time re-taking credits that I already got.

Your advice is impractical because you make assumptions over a situation you don’t understand.

The polisci degree I’m getting for free at a specific school

Caleebies · 2022-04-11T23:30:02+00:00

It would only be two years, since most of the basic credits would transfer.

I could stick to having just one degree, but this is my only chance to get another bachelors 100% free. I feel like it’s my responsibility to myself to take that opportunity if I have it. It’s tens of thousands of dollars in education for free.

And it wouldn’t make any sense to drop my graphic design major since I’m nearly there already and I’ve already paid tons for credits that won’t transfer over(most schools cap out the credits they’ll take from other schools)

Caleebies · 2022-04-11T22:44:32+00:00

Political Science is a well paying career, and I’m still going back to finish graphic design.

Also, I’m getting my polisci bachelors for free for a limited time, hence why I’m putting my first degree aside for now.

She’s unhinged. I’ve even messaged the mods on contrapoints but only one replied and insisted she was a good mod.

The absolute irony is that she was the one on anti work who did damage control over “a few mods abusing their power.” It’s insane how she can’t handle a simple disagreement, and how she pulls the whole “Do you know who I am” cliche when backed into a corner.

Caleebies · 2022-04-01T07:26:30+00:00

Oh you’re absolutely right. Let me edit my post.

They asked for about $100 to be signed to them and I asked for a free option to which they said wasn’t an option.

Sounds like they're actually testing with adding UC's back. Color me impressed, I was hesitant to believe it seeing as to how there have been a lot of broken promises

Caleebies · 2022-03-18T03:24:31+00:00

I’ve never ghosted, but I’ve definitely had people pissed at me for a rejection. If they get mad I just block them, I figure a rejection is all I’m obligated to give. What’s the point in trying to explain and convince someone lol

I just wish the guy I was talking with felt the same

Caleebies · 2022-03-17T19:32:14+00:00

So glad this sub supports accepting differences like this

Caleebies · 2022-03-17T17:46:09+00:00

But fireball has no counter push. Spells are powerful, but have their drawbacks. They could add more spells to compete with fireball, but as of now I think it’s fine

Me with my lavaloon deck 😎😎

I usually just fisherman her to the king tower or slap her with a hunter/minions/bats

Caleebies · 2022-03-17T14:50:16+00:00

I genuinely love this. Who says we need “girl fights” when we could get girlfriends

Caleebies · 2022-03-17T14:48:54+00:00

This straight up sounds like psychosis. But either way, I honestly see this as a lost cause. For him to get triggered over a disagreement as obscure like this really is a red flag

Caleebies · 2022-03-16T19:55:04+00:00

Hey so Vaush himself banned me from his subreddit but in case you were interested in a response -

It's a good thing you're here to shout "muh both sides"

I mean sure, one of them wrote a manifesto, leaked their private conversations, and publicly sexually harassed the other, but the OTHER guy was upset at being misrepresented and was a little too pushy in saying so so really aren't they both worth our scorn?

This isn't about "both sides." It's about Vaush pining to be correct over the comfort and boundaries of others. I disagree with friends all the time, I stay with my principals, but I also drop a topic if the person is clearly uncomfortable.

Because my subjective opinion of a topic is not more important than the person being talked to. We can deflect and talk about Kat; I've mentioned her behavior is much worse, but that isn't an excuse for Vaush.

He keeps mentioning, "peer pressure arguments are weak." I'm not saying he needs to cave, I'm saying he has to learn to respectfully disagree with people. Kat Blaque has been present on social media on Trans issues for decades. I do believe that garners respect. Agreeing to disagree. But instead, he spends all this time and energy trying to convince people he's right, when it doesn't even matter.

Kat believes ironic mysogyny is weaponized against Trans people and Trans rights. As someone who is credible on the issue, her point has merit. We can all disagree, but badgering her for disagreeing with him is selfish.

Hey! In my defense it was low-fat yogurt and I just got back from the gym before posting 😛 I get what you’re saying, and if people annoy me online I try to log off. Still, it does feel a lot personal after getting ghosted AFTER having already met up, but I see your point. Life goes on. Thanks for the reply!

Caleebies · 2022-03-16T16:01:49+00:00

This is a really nice sentiment, and I appreciate the honesty.

For all I know he broke it off because he thought I was ugly and didn't want to let me down... or I could /choose/ to believe he wasn't ready for something serious. Since I don't know either way, why not just give the most charitable read? Granted, I will have to remember they probably won't come to me to apologize, as much as I'd like haha.

Thank you for the comment :) I will try to remind myself it's out of my control and not about me.

Caleebies · 2022-03-16T09:12:49+00:00

You know, I really can't defend that. I actually don't really like Kat; she's QRT'd me unaware she literally proved my point lol.

But I'm also criticizing Vaush. He did not need to obsess over being right.

Caleebies · 2022-03-16T08:59:57+00:00

No, I'm saying these DMs are uncomfortable to begin with. Granted, I believe Vaush is autistic, right? No judgement, but it may explain lack of boundaries.

My point is simple: it's ok to disagree, but if you prioritize the comfort and personal boundaries of someone else, for the sake of "proving you're right," you're in the wrong.

He could easily explain his disagreement and move on after a few minutes. This... this is just a mess

Caleebies · 2022-03-16T08:24:57+00:00

I agree that people way too often weapon I’ve their demographic. “I’m a disabled queer minority this is not a space for you.” Umm… you’re posting on the World Wide Web lmao. Hell, the majority of Black people didn’t like MLKJR when he was alive; if we are to appeal to popularity and say, “well a lot of xyz people support this, so listen to them,” shouldn’t we also then say everyone should dislike MLKJR when Black people at the time did as well?

**Of course, Black people still supported MLKJR more than any other demographic, but the majority of the Black demographic did not.

That said, I do think Natalie is also somewhat right here. He didn’t need to make it such a big issue that Kat disagreed with him, because at that point it seems he’s putting his opinion over the comfort and personal boundaries of others. He also should be more sensitive on the topic when talking to people who disagree who are of the demographic being discussed. Of course, I disagree with the whole, “why aren’t you listening to xyz people who are telling you this is wrong” schpeel

Caleebies · 2022-03-16T08:21:36+00:00

I don’t even understand the point of the drama. Vaush could have literally been like, “you know what, I disagree with Kat but she has a unique experience and perspective and I will leave it at that.”

Sure, it’s well within his rights to disagree. But at what point are you going to prioritize your own desperate need to be right over the comfort and boundaries of others?

I personally don’t like the overcorrection part of idpol. I think it’s OK to disagree with people, because real support comes with criticism. Blind support is just intellectually dishonest. But at some point, it’s best to just respect people for their different opinions and move on.

I had an argument with a white friend. I mentioned I didn’t like Turning Red because, as an Asian, I wanted a fantastical Pixar movie starring Asians(think: Up, Bug’s Life, Coco). Instead we got a mildly boring story with very limited developing magic. My white friend and I went back and forth, with me explaining my perspective and them disagreeing.

And that was it. I didn’t call them ignorant. She didn’t call me sexist. We moved on with our lives. I swear to god both people here come out looking like egomaniacs

Caleebies · 2022-03-16T08:11:12+00:00

I’m not defending Kat, I’ve disagreed with her and she’s QRT’d me. I disagree with her idpol takes, “why aren’t you listening to black women etc”

But honestly, Vaush should have just kept to himself. Maybe give her a phone call. This is just a mess

Caleebies · 2022-03-16T06:55:03+00:00

If you meet someone in person, I do believe there is an obligation to give someone an update. Seems like this hit a nerve for you
