My brain decided I can’t do that anymore. Worked in software for 10 years now and it’s just fucking gone. Can’t do the hyper-focus thing anymore.

It probably doesn’t help that my company is supporting a genocide in Gaza.

Oh, well, I got laid off a month ago anyway. Basically, spent the last year not doing work at my company so I guess I deserved it. But, really, the company deserves to be convicted of supporting war crimes; so I guess I did the moral thing.

I really hope the hyper-focus ability comes back. I can still do it with other things. Just not with job searching yet. Wondering when that will kick in.

Edit: Microsoft for anyone wondering.

While I appreciate the liberals calling balls and strikes in the Trump administration I am frustrated at this point that that is all that is being done.

Like, there is a point at which pointing to a broken judicial, electoral, and economic system and saying “hey! They are fucking this up” is just a shield to that administration to make people feel like something is being done to resist it. And they are not.

It’s like, if I was a investigator and I kept pointing to the stabbing victim and saying “I know exactly who is at fault!” But I never actually opened a case and those guilty never saw their day in court. All I did was give people a false sense that justice would be served when they saw the victim. So, those that heard me shout “I know who is at fault” are left with the false satisfaction of justice (or at the very least resistance) and never look much beyond that and continue with their life wondering why there are so many people on the street getting stabbed still.

That’s what it feels like when I listen to the Democratic party and it’s leadership. It feels like they are the party of “acknowledging bad things” and nothing more.

Like, you can call balls and strikes. But if you’re going to tell us for years that “Trump is a threat to democracy” and have zero plan or effort to throw him out of the game when he charges the pichters mound. Then you’re not an “umpire” for democracy. You’re just an announcer in a game without an ump.

Edit: sorry, double analogy in my scattered brain.

Landlord said to me “property tax has gone up. This is my only form of income. Will need to increase rent”

Told him “yeah, everything has gone up and my paycheck is still the same”.

Like, these types of relationships are so parasitic. This is the “nice” mom and pop style landlord too that every liberal seems to want to give a pass too.

Sure, are they less bad than the big corporate faceless landlords? Yes. But the entire relationship is the problem.

They get to justify forcing me out of my home because the value of the house that they own WENT UP.

That’s why their property tax is more. They literally own something that is more valuable and making it further impossible for me to ever buy a place of my own.

If you completely lack class analysis. Sure.

Jews and minority groups are specifically used as scapegoats for the inequality and exploitation that capitalism causes. It’s why fascism is a defense of capitalism when it is in it’s in decline.

Pointing to the actual systemic causes is not a Nazi meme. And there has been no revolution in history in which the ruling class gave up power without first enacting violence on the lower class of society in order to maintain its power.

Threatening violence in response to the violence enacted by the ruling class is not a “Nazi meme”.

In a just world the ruling class today in America should be hung for their crimes of genocide.
