Another day, another vfx job application submitted through a janky AI-powered web portal because every artist who used to personally refer me is also out of work

Everything about the AI inevitability hype reeks of 1999 when my high school let its pep rallies get sponsored by Surge and suddenly all these Surge soda machines showed up at every entrance

This is so fucked. The plan was pushed *hard* by the Biden administration and those who signed up for it have been completely hung out to dry.

…I had to consolidate all my loans in order to enroll for this plan, which capitalized the $80k interest that had already accrued into principle. Hooray compound interest! 🫠
