That stage of life is pretty difficult work-wise. Up until then most people’s lives have been on rails: go to school, do exams, go to university, do exams. Now you’ve got all this choice, but also the idea that the “wrong” choice will affect your life in a negative way.

My advice is just to try out lots of things. At this age you’re not locked into anything, you can spend a few years doing something, decide you don’t want to keep doing it, and it’s not time wasted. I’m 35 and I’ve got friends my age who are changing careers now. You’ll never know if a career is “for you” until you’ve tried it.

Talking about trains with my fellow train drivers:

Talking about trains with those fucking idiot bus drivers who don’t know shit:

What’s the context for this? I’ve been out of the loop with this story.

Cool I guess we’ll all just die then.

Yeah I guess so. But the fact that the police arrested him 2 days before the insurrection, ostensibly to prevent the insurrection itself, and then it happened anyway and everyone seemed super unprepared for it, idk the whole thing seems a bit weird. It’s possible that he’s just outlived his usefulness, but I wonder what was said in those 2 days after his arrest but before the 6th.

I don’t understand the story with this guy. Apparently he was arrested on January 4th, and had been an FBI informant for years: https://www.reuters.com/article/us-usa-proudboys-leader-idUSKBN29W1PE

How is he now getting a 33 year long sentence if we was an informant?

Exactly - what I’m trying to say is that if I was dying and I decided that even though I’d never particularly been into, say, Enya before but that now I really, really was into Enya and that in fact, I thought Enya was great and that Enya died for our sins and I wanted an Enya themed funeral with pictures of Enya and lots and lots of mentions of Enya, then I think it would be a bit bloody rich for my sister to ban all mention of Enya from my funeral. Yeah?
