Looks at first the boxer had the judo(ist?), but once the judo(ist?) finally got grappling he took him down! I was surprised he won!

Brutal. I feel for her family at the moment. These jobs just aren't worth it. Take care of your mental health first .

Yeah I feel the future of social media is gonna be more private self moderating chats. Especially as AI generate content will fill ppl feeds with more and more clutter it's bound to happen. I don't have the stats on me, but most ppl lurk and rarely post, I read. So with less posters and more lurkers it's becoming less interesting .

Like I only recently started posting a couple of years ago not daily or even weekly but occasionally because, I realized that some body has to post, and why not it me?

My recommendations are broken. It just repeates what I'd been watching and never nothing new. I don't know why my algorithm is broken. I have gotten to the point of watching more movies and tv shows at this point.

It's a mostly residential school

I don't think so. There might be the possibility but pretty sure, I'm not. I always struggled with being venerable with ppl and making connections with ppl, so I'm not sure if that's a sign of autism but I kinda feel neurotypical. Might just have a strong case of avoidant personality disorder tho.

Yeah, especially when there's so much alienation in society ppl find ways to conversate and social media is poor substitute, but it's an outlet people have to conversations. But with Ai and the rise of pseudo not posters I feel understandable ppl are disengaging because the main point was to connect with real people but now it's being overran with bots, content creators spamming their links, and so forth.

Man thanks for the reminder, What influnced my choices was cost and bachelor's doesn't have as much strength in the job market it once has. If a more free and less stressful comes at a cost a social life early one so be it. Older me will hopefully appreciate the foresight. I need to put more work in cultivating a more full social life.

I was actually a Sustainability major but switched to Social Services then made my own, because I wanted to focus on stuff I was interested in. But yeah, thinking about it I feel it just depends on how I market it. And I was considering grad school and might get a MSW or MPA.

Thanks a lot for the thoughtful reply, I kinda appreciate long replies! You got me thinking about the positive things I have done so far in college and they are more professional in nature .I got the chance to really dedicate time and study the things that interest me, my school had allowed me to self design my own major which is really cool in hindsight. And I have done about 3 internships,and work-study job,which I really enjoyed and helped me grow a lot as a professional. I feel like I'm more of ambivert that lends introverted. And you gave some really good pointers and advice, I take fully responsibility for the lack of effort on my part, I like was thinking to myself I hadn't gone in about 80% of the buildings on campus, because I really just went to class and came home. So, I'm going to take your advice and just wander.

I'm going to approach my last year of college with no expectations and just go with the flow of things.

This is really great advice. Like everyone, I have gone through rough times before, I just need to chalk up this time as just another experience and memory and leave it as that. I dunno, I just feeling really down about it for some reason today. I'm going just try to build better memories going forward.

I decided to make my own to mostly avoid classes in each of the majors I wasn't interested in tbh. I wanted to go into some type of urban/housing career, but after interning in a planning department for my city, I realize how limiting this career really is. I have been interested in community development since high-school.

Yeah, part of me is really happy to have this time of my life behind me. I know that life post college has it own struggles, I'll deal with those when I get there. But I'm happy to almost be done with my current ones.

Yeah, certs seems like alot of ppl advice. I was looking into completing Eco-districts and some tech-y certs

Thanks for the salesforce tip! I saw a listing on LinkedIn for a Community Development Associate for ICF or something and applied anyway despite having a couple more months till I graduate. I have been looking at consultancy firms and engineering services firms as well. I was kinda stuck on working in local government but I have learnt there's actually alot of options to try for.

Yeah student debt is no joke. I was fortunate enough to be in a position where I could commute and had enough student aid and scholarship to go debt free first 2 years and use savings from working part time to pay next 2 years off in (less than 6k each year). But I wish more companies would invest in proper training than push that on students and college to do (poorly imo).

Yeah it's kinda reassuring in a way.

I hear that alot! I feel like for people who are interested in more macro works a MSW has kinda been pigeon holed in micro work sadly. Like I care about social economic policy mostly. I think a MSW is valuable but a MPA might be more so for what I want to do.

Thats a thing! What's the site?

Thanks that kinda reassuring!

Thanks alot for this, truly.

Yes, my first year was fully remote, second was remote then in person with covid precautions and my third and last back to normal. But I dunno think that's the whole of it. Like I see ppl on campus and they seem like covid had little impact on them. I think something is wrong with me, but I have been looking into social disconnection and loneliness lately, and I seems like, I'm not to dissimilar from many in Gen z.

That's fair, I have done jobs and internships and I have learnt there's just things I don't like about but I tough it out. I wouldn't frame it like that in a job interview tho! I would say it was about to best use my time in college studying and developing a topic area I was passionate in! I go to a small liberal arts college with alot of different topic areas but not a lot of depth, and didn't want to transfer due to financial reasons so this was good compromise.
