watched bugonia last night and it left me with nausea and depression. really beautiful horrific film but i…am never watching it again. the depictions of the underbelly of late stage capitalistic hell, poverty, and extreme conspiracy/Qanon/ incel/4chan shit is its strength tho

need a mutual aid bridge until my tax refund comes through while i look for employment. about $50-$100 would be incredible, if anyone can spare anything. thank you. denver is so expensive cashapp: ashmbedore venmo: ashmbedore www.gofundme.com/f/fund-ashs-...

no ad breaks. beautiful, perfect, no notes youtu.be/sJG6AHT8w1s?...

was always told to read the fine print of everything and quite literally never even saw my student work contract that i got coerced into doing instead of actual employment. i was supposed to have a regular work contract awhile back, and yeah, i’m open to immediate work

i cannot believe how many time i’ve been fired for having disabilities. especially from a medical college, that’s abhorrent. i’m an extremely diligent worker and have made a full recovery. does bluesky work for networking? :)

lost my job due to being so sick and taking time off from my thesis. with everything i can muster, fuck student work contracts. it has ruined my life so many times, exploited everything i have left, and now i’m screwed. anything helps while i look for new work www.gofundme.com/f/fund-ashs-...

manifesto, list of demands. whatever. when will the revolution happen and will students lead it? i’ve been a lecturer. i’ve grieved so much. i protect students first. love y’all - a fellow gen z-er who took a break during thesis year to get the damn revolution started
