    Remember the days before automated voice shit? Where you’d just spam “0” until it connected you with a rep?

    It was so easy!

    Now, it’s I NEED to direct you to the right department. Did you want to pay your bill? If so say YES if not say: Something else.

    Whoever designed that system—straight to hell.




  • When I get pretty low, I hear the same things in my head as OP. I have journal entries that are strikingly similar to what OP wrote.

    It’s a bit uncanny, I have never come across another person that feels, at least it seems, the way I do. I know it’s irrational to feel this way. I bet OP knows it too, deep down. But I can’t escape the feeling, and clearly they cannot either.








  • Students painted the Advocacy and Spirit walls on Monday night with the Palestinian flag and messages that included “I dream of breaking the siege,” “Come together in peace” and the number of Palestinian children killed in Gaza since war between Israel and Hamas broke out in October.

    Early Tuesday morning, contractors hired by the college were ordered to paint over the walls because the administration said the messaging was “threatening, intimidating and antisemitic,” according to an email from Eric Kaler, Case’s president.

    Yup calling for peace is apparently antisemitism. 🙄

    In a statement Wednesday, Cleveland Mayor Justin Bibb and the city’s police chief, Annie Todd, urged Kaler and his administration to think of the students’ rights.

    “We support 1st Amendment rights and implore CWRU leadership to consider this and think about how the decisions they make and the actions they take – especially against those who are abiding by the law – will influence some of the progress we have collectively made as a city. At the same time, we urge individuals to demonstrate peacefully,” Bibb and Todd said.

    Wow, that was completely unexpected!
