Hey Do You Think Hustle Culture Is Specifically Designed To Keep Us So Exhausted That We Dont Have Energy

Hey do you think hustle culture is specifically designed to keep us so exhausted that we don’t have energy to get enraged about the way governments treat us?

"Scientists should be working on curing cancer instead of doing [Thing]" just get funnier and funnier to me over time because

there's so many papers and studies about curing cancer that they drown everything else out. God help you if you're trying to research something that has ever been considered applicable to cancer research.

"cancer" is a whole category of diseases that includes hundreds of different things

The way i understand it, "cancer" is a consequence of cells aging and being exposed to stresses over time. The goal is to stop it from developing too early, curing cancer IN GENERAL is a bit like trying to cure entropy

the amount of progress we've made on treating and preventing cancer even in the last few decades is so insane, it's a lot more impressive than "curing" a single disease would be.

different scientists aren't interchangeable. What's a meteorologist going to do for cancer research

If we didn't have the other scientists, we would die a lot more of the other stuff

there WAS that one guy who programmed an AI to categorize different types of cookies and pastries that ended up being great for detecting cancer cells, so YOU NEVER KNOW

I wonder what it means when I see all these people I used to know in school share their autism diagnoses and they were always loved and popular and confident in school? I’m not saying these aren’t valid but it sometimes just feels like a knife in the heart when you realise that you can be autistic and you can cope fine with all the things I couldn’t cope with and nearly failed school because of. The structure I couldn’t understand, the loud noises that hurt, the uncomfortable uniforms, the social circles, and all the difficulties of existing…

Other people with autism managed. Other people with autism thrived.

And I didn’t.

I always thought autism was the reason why I struggled with the traditional school system, but maybe it’s not.
