Oh my god, I feel so sad for kids born into families like this. Extra sad knowing I grew up with a mom who was antivax and had to get all my shots at age 27 to travel abroad for work. I was going to Nigeria and they had a whole list of required vaccines to enter the country. Nigeria of all places has stricter immigration/work visa vaccine requirements than the US. Just bonkers.

That's an image of two people sharing a single brain cell, if I've ever seen one.

The process for earning a masters or PhD has become, seemingly to me (an idiot), an assembly line of templates and specific directions for writing. Passive voice. Over-describing a single item. Adoption or creation of words that are not needed.

Recently, I read a description of a process where I work. If done correctly one might hope to attain "connectedness" with another person. There's already a word for what the writer wanted to convey, but the person's mind and writing were full of academic sounding words and forms that are tedious and sometimes obscure.

It's my guess that back when graduate degrees were rarer, the candidates were actually gifted intellectuals who did not worry about articulating their thoughts and discoveries. They arrived to grad school having already established a voice and ability to array information in a natural way.

I cringe when I hear someone talk about what the data says. Where I work, we must seek "data-driven" solutions. 

This shit will all pass when some other arcane or needless phrase appears from some doctoral candidate striving for a new expression to distinguish their largely useless investigations from the other useless investigations conducted on nearly the very same subject.

Don't get me wrong. I'm sure the elite intellectuals who defined graduate degrees in the past are still present in that system and doing brilliant, useful work. I also think peddling grad degrees as a resume enhancer is a racket kind of like student loans. $$$$

I write for a living. I'm sensitive to overuse of the arcane. I'm not an elite writer, but I know what I'm doing and don't copy a template. Those who need one are not elite intellectuals in my humble opinion.

Well, in this day of specialization and poor basic education, even the very learned in their field are often very poor writers.  And that's been true for a very long time.  Theses and dissertations outside the humanities, and a lot in the humanities, I'd wager, will make your eyes bleed.

At nearly every mentorship or informational interview I have, I tell grad students and interns to learn how to write clear declarative sentences and to practice turning five pages of work into one. Without AI.

 

I work with a lot of technology architects and work with them on written and live presentation comms.  It's always a battle to elevate the message out of the SME level they like to live in to something the rest of the world can understand that they are taking into account important constraints and objectives.  They will talk about the what and how all day but completely forget why we're doing it in the first place.

I have legit crazy and personality disorders in my family. I sure as hell wasn’t going to invite more in. I needed respite from that shit. Great sex be damned. Hard pass. 

Yeah, I had one woman coming on to me hard when I was still single and she said her theme song was "Strong enough to be my man" by Sheryl Crow so I listened to the lyrics and said "nope"

 

@troph  With your experience with your dad I'd bet you would love the old British Sitcom "Keeping up appearances"

As said elsewhere, this ignorance is quite similar to maga and they probably are maga, if they can even vote or do vote..  But it has its genesis somewhere else.

Enshitenment, it rhymes with Enlightenment but incorporates the German word shite

Joseph diGenova, who has spent the last several years running around every cable news program he can find stanning for Donald Trump, just got his SSN and other personal information leaked when Trump declassified the JFK files in the typically slapdash manner that we have come to expect from this Administration.

So that's fun.

I haven't seen that fuckface in years. Does the fat fuck still wave an unlit cigar nonstop?

I’ve lost the ability to critically think here lately but not vaccinating for measles is fucking child abuse and I don’t understand how they can get away with it. Maybe I should not believe in paying taxes. 

Don't worry, pretty soon it will be illegal to vaccinate your kids.

If you ask them, they have vague but extremely strong beliefs that vaccines are dangerous. And it's RUDE (!!!!!) to point out their delusion

I note the inclusion of language saying “Biden-era” - to remind them what they could’ve had… and who to blame for them and their relatives and neighbors being rounded up. Not an accidental placement.
