I feel attacked. But seen

Sometimes? But even like 20 years ago when every single ABC/FOX/NBC anchor was literally given a script (teleprompter) the the way down to the local level and they were instructed to adhere to it as rigidly as possible

Edit: I exaggerate slightly, but not as much as you might think

I feel you, I still feel like I barely know how to speak English 🙃

John Petrucci from Dream Theater has several bangers. My current favorite is in the latter half of the song The Shadow Man Incident

Usually given the exact same script too

I definitely should've worded the post better but yeah I didn't mean to imply that it's never taught in the states. Just that my personal experience in the system (also southern but urban) didn't really give me any chances 😕 But honestly a large reason for that probably just came from my particular setting (I'm NOT typing that whole thing out again but in one of my reply threads I go into more detail on the weird things I grew up learning)

Ahhh I get it now. Thank you for clarifying 🙂

Damn, I like your reply

Gee, thanks buddy 😁 As for the subconsciousness peeking through and being taken as conviction... yeah, there are pris and cons to either method. Overall though, to me, life is too short to worry about it too much. I hope you have a fantastic rest of your week 🙂

I kinda figured, but I also wanted to see if they had a follow-up prepared 😂

Fair enough. Also thanks for not being one of the comments saying 'they definitely exist in America how dare you' 🙄 I could've worded it better but the goal of the post was to find edicational systems different than the one I personally went through, not to try to define all of America's system in a few sentences. I put a fairly detailed description of that in one of my other replies if you're curious but regardless, thanks for your time 🙂

Tbh, I feel like most of humanity society is that shallow ouroboros you described but that's a different discussion. As for why I choose to think it's Loss most of the time? Idk, I guess I've just seen it often enough or been "gotcha'ed" by it by some dank memes too many times 🤷

Follow-up question: business schools? As in, specialization before high school graduation? I know there are a handful of 'premier' schools here in the states but most of them are expensive, exclusionary, and focused on simply getting INTO a better university (prep schools). Most of us just go through general public education which can vary wildly and you definitely do not (in most cases) get to choose between the "business" branch or the "engineering" branch

 

As an American who grew up at a religious school in the 90s, we absolutely did not (or at least I never had access to one). Obviously places like Kora or Tibet have been effected in their history (I still want to read your answers 😁), but what about, for example, New Zealand? Or Sierra Leonne? Or Portugal? I'm just curious to see how pervasive the new Global Language already is by this point.

BonusQuestion: Is it mostly following their Belt-and-Road Initiative? Wouldn't that be something?

 

For anyone not familiar, it's basically a free reskin of Excel that runs on Linux. Enjoy!

 

Yes, I do have a full-time job, and I even enjoy it, but it doesn't pay enough to survive in this hellscape of a world we live in. I lack the college degree required to get almost any decent-paying job (plus my last job hunt took MONTHS to get a lead), I don't have the skills or originality to become an online content creator, nor the artistry or patience to create and sell trinkets on Etsy (plus, that would require an initial investment which I simply do not have). Should I set up a GoFundMe? OnlyFans? I wouldn't really be offering anything except a charity basket/collection plate so that feels dishonest at best. Idk, I'm quite literally having a breakdown because I'm probably going to lose my car soon, and then my job, and then my apartment, and then my life. Any help at all would be appreciated. Thank you
