Listen, I may be racist, but at least I respect the norms and procedures!

Meanwhile if you want to watch every game there is literally no way to do it except piracy. Even if you spent hundreds and hundreds of dollars on every single sports package, some games will still be blacked out. The NHL is such a joke.

100% agree. The rationalization for school group projects is always “well you’ll have to work together in the workplace” except group projects are not at all the same. In a workplace you are all in the same place at the same time and it’s time dedicated for you all to work on it. Very rarely in a workplace are you required to coordinate all your different coworker’s free time to work on a project together outside work. Group projects are good when you get class time to work on it, like you said. But unfortunately that’s pretty much never because of how condensed academic schedules are.

To be fair it also feels different because its 24 degrees out and people are wearing shorts and tank tops and I’m sweating in my Halloween costume

Going to events, hobby meetups, clubs, etc, is always going to be 100x more effective at meeting people than the accursed apps. They have a financial incentive for you to be unsatisfied and keep swiping. Obviously don’t be that person who shows up just to try to pick up people, but seriously you gotta go outside. I understand if maybe you live in a remote area and there aren’t many things going on, but in almost every situation going outside is more effective and less demoralizing than the apps. Especially if you can find something that’s regular and you can attend weekly or monthly or whatever. That’s how connections form naturally, by being in the same place as other people and slowly getting to know them. This thing where we look at some photos of people and then immediately try to talk intimately with them is extremely unnatural, it’s no wonder it doesn’t work very well.

Curated tumblr is undoubtedly one of the most insufferable subreddits on that accursed site. Practically every post on there is just “actually sweaty it’s really privileged to be a radical leftist and not a feckless liberal. Against the status quo? Wow your privilege is showing”
