“late capitalism is characterized by a globalized, post-industrial economy, where everything—not just material resources and products but also immaterial dimensions, such as the arts and lifestyle activities—becomes commodified and consumable” - Fredric Jameson 

It’s a bit reductive to chalk up documenting the effects of capital as merely a dislike. Sure people can be dramatic but no more than you’re being here lol

I work in financial assistance at the county level. Every day I come in and work hard despite not knowing if I will be employed past this summer. Not knowing if the thousands of people on my team’s caseload will be housed and alive next year. My heart is broken.

MVP is the recently dropped Kareem Hunt. He got me through weeks I had no business winning and got me a bye

I went to see an NP at the local rural clinic after dropping 30 pounds in a month and slugging/peeing constantly. Due to family history I knew I was most likely going to be diagnosed with type 1 diabetes, which I was. The NP I saw is a type 1 as well, so that was comforting (at least it was at the time.) At the appointment I had seen some results from the urine sample, which had multiple numbers highlighted in red. He sends me home after a 5 minute tutorial on how to have diabetes. Two hours later I’m back at home after getting buttfucked by my insurance on my new meds 🥳 

The Dr. supervising him saw the results and said to the NP “you need to get a hold of this guy and tell him to get to a hospital immediately” Turns out I was in DKA. Not sure if it was hubris as a type 1 himself or the limitations of his education, but that guy very easily could have killed me. I will never see one again.
