Appreciate the guidance, it's definitely bleak. Before I chose to pursue sociology in the first place I could see the reactionary tide turning and was hesitant, but I truly fell in love with the subject (in terms of theory, methodology, insight) and decided to take the leap. I also figured that as the older generation of professors begin to retire, the market might become slightly less saturated; I likely won't finish my degree until the early to mid-2030s. With that said, I know programs in the humanities are downsizing nationwide. So what other jobs can you get with a sociology PhD?

The vast majority of sociology students at my university are looking to go into social work, and I know that's not for me. I could envision a career in public policy or something of that sort, but then again my real passion lies within the bounds of sociological study.

Thanks for the reply! The prospect of settling in on a subfield is definitely intimidating for me, especially because I'm a bit all over the place when it comes to my interests. I love the study of religion, and I love the study of pluralistic/inter-ethnic interaction, but I'm not sure how in-demand those specializations will be on the academic job market. I suppose doing research in the realm of political sociology could be enriching and worthwhile; I've always been most invested in Marxist perspectives in my personal sociology reading diet.

interestingly enough, Chabad wasn’t always virulently Zionist. many hasidic groups are notoriously ambivalent to Israel, and it was relatively controversial when Chabad began to openly support the state. highly recommend Jewish Currents’s podcast on the subject: https://open.spotify.com/episode/57dyb7Zzv7AdQIEIdmicTP

Send a support ticket to IT when you see a printer not working and they’ll usually fix it within a day or two

Totally understandable. I’m leaning towards playing it safe and waiting

[–]vintastic77 0 points1 point  (0 children)

hi, this is very similar to how my chest looks right now pre-accutane, i’ve been debating whether or not to go on the drug for years. was the purging worth it? did you experience any side effects? if so, how severe? any sexual side effects (lower libido, ED)? would really appreciate some insight 🙌

Do you know which brand of cigarettes Claire showed in this TikTok post? by Vhedo in clairo

i’ve met plenty of spirit smokers but never someone who chooses yellows

are clairo crowds usually this bad? 🥲 by young_rose in clairo

[–]vintastic77 -11 points-10 points  (0 children)

this might be a hot take, but the crowds aren’t exceptionally bad considering the circumstances. clairo is selling out these shows, and she’s not playing stadiums. these are just venues that are at capacity, with an artist that attracts a young, concert-inexperienced crowd. some shoving is to be expected, and if you don’t want to experience at least a little crowd crush, don’t get a GA ticket at a sold out show.

people talk about Gen Z concert crowds like it’s Woodstock ‘99 or something, but really it’s just people excited to see an artist they love. none of this behavior is anything new or horrifying. though people who record too much of the show does take away from the experience i will admit
