  • My experience has been different, but the professional events I go to are like “Brews and Biotech,” more interest-based, than slick corporate focused. I agree that “job fair” and “recruiting” events are generally not worth it.

  • Network in person as much as possible. Not just traditional networking events, but if you can do things around your hobbies and interests, but mention to folks what your career / job targets are that’s a way to find “ins.”

    I got a great job in tech strategy because of a public speaking course. I made sure my speech topics leaned towards my career interests and chatted with a fellow student who was an exec assistant which led to the job.

    I know it can feel like a crap shoot, but if you speak up around people who feel connected to you, it’s likely at least some of them will want to help.

  • I blame you 100% for discouraging learning rather than encouraging it. Shame is not a motivator. That has been proven over and over in basic epidemiology studies. It’s Psychology 101. It’s an appalling reflection of your basic education that you didn’t know that.

  • I doubt every nuance of constitutional procedure and the loopholes by which they can be exploited in multiple branches, and minutiae which may or may not block each of those avenues is basic civics. Yet, here we are needing a daily understanding of all of that to appreciate the impact of each step of the latest chicanery.

  • There’s an Italian restaurant in Denver (Gaetano’s) that was opened in the 40s to give the mob wives something to keep them busy and to launder money. The mob is long gone, but the restaurant is still pretty popular.

  • Thank you for explaining. I feel like I’m becoming an armchair constitutional process hobbyist this year (against my natural inclinations). I appreciate you, and all the knowledgeable people who take the time to help educate.

  • Or there maybe there should be appropriate repercussions for being here illegally, and not jump straight to imprisonment unless there’s violent crime involved. Also, the path to legal citizenship should be reasonable and equal for all. As an aside, maybe stop deporting legal citizens too, but now I’m really talking crazy!

    Severance is a masterpiece of liminal space

    Granted I’m only on the first episode, but it struck me as intentionally using liminal space almost constantly.

    It's something...

    Polis was a shred of humanity amidst the shitshow today.

    Two of this week's baguettes

    I’m having fun tweaking things now, but I think I’ve got the basics mostly figured out. I’m in Denver, so the altitude and dryness play a role.
