  • Hey, not all of us! Physics was humbling in my experience. Had the exact opposite effect.

    I did exceptionally well at a top physics university, and still felt stupid all the time.

    It took getting my ass handed to me to wipe that veneer off my perceived awesomeness and realized I’m doing this cause I love it. Why would I think down on anyone else doing what they do cause they love it?

    And I sure as hell came to realize that there’s people better at biology than I am at physics.

    That said, lots of physics people are high on their own supply. So, not discounting the reality of physics dickheads that are in abundant supply.






  • Ignore them. People like to feel superior. The like to think that they’re somehow different and would never have been so easily fooled. They’re just fooling themselves.

    They don’t realize that dogging you for not having your realization earlier is based on the exact same logical flaws that have led to republicans believing that poor people are only poor due to a failure of character, thus believing we shouldn’t waste our time on helping people who don’t deserve it.


  • Damn… your comment being at zero upvotes is making me realize just how much everyone hates us. I know zero isn’t really anything on the surface. But I would’ve thought your comment would resonate a little.

    But naw, everyone is, rightfully, just fearing for their countries right now and wants to, understandably, punish.

    I fucking hate my country rn, I protested today even. But I know we’re in a bad spot and I kinda looked to countries like Canada as our last hope in defeating the pieces of shit running our country.

    Guess I was delusional that they would still prioritize us “good” ones and keep us safe. But like… why? Why would they?

    Oh well, no one who’s lived in a collapsing empire throughout history wanted to. And a lot of people died, and they probably didn’t want to lol.

    I hope I don’t die, but I hope for good to prevail more. And if I die in the process of the defeat of this fucked country, and the world order that follows is something better. So be it… shits rough.
