Red & Green are the New Orange

I’m pushing 40 and when having lunch with a friend the other day, I talked to her about how she has so many friends, and I don’t. She and I aren’t that close, I’d like to be closer, but she’s one of these women (also 40) who has a ton of really, really close friends, she doesn’t have time for more. Some from…

Probably an unpopular opinion. But I kind of feel bad for her she didn’t even want to go to college she said before her parents pressured her. And although she was complicit the adults in the room thought this was a good idea and funded it. At that age I would do anything my mom wanted. 

I think one of the hardest things in finding a close friend as an adult is opening yourself up and being vulnerable and finding someone who can do the same. It’s harder to find someone genuine as an adult than as a child. 

Or Schitt’s Creek.  She’s a real-life Alexis Rose.

I have sympathy - like, she did not ask for or want this.

You can still feel some empathy towards her as a teenager without feeling sorry for her. But “my parents made me” isn’t an uncommon refrain for college students. Hell, I spent two years as a physics major to make my dad happy.

actually having to work for things and share some sense of a common reality would be the best outcome but her parents insane wealth and lack of perspective will likely make that impossible I’m afraid.

This is like an episode of Gossip Girl tbh.

And Black Mirror is our world now! uggggg

This is her sex tape. Those assholes are going to have a reality tv show when this is all done.

I taught undergraduates at a modest state school in the southeast.

Nah, she’ll be fine. She’s still pretty and she’s still rich. She will also be getting a lot more attention and at the end of the day that is the end goal of these influencers. Attention. As attention means clicks and clicks mean money.

Weirdly, I think this is probably the most honest of all the dating apps. 

The Times tells us that Refridgerdating’s founder, John Stonehill, found his wife by way of judging her fridge.

USC is not a state school and it has a 17% admittance rate.

It’s also hilarious.

I don’t want it to sound like I’m standing up for these spoiled kids because they really frustrate me, but I find it conceivable that they don’t know. Their parents have indoctrinated them with the idea that they’re special; if they don’t earn good grades, it’s because they’re talented in other ways and smarter than…

The funny thing is, if a black person works their ass off to get into a school, racists will yell about affirmative action. MEANWHILE.........
