The school system doesn’t work until it works for everyone.

that moment when you stop & think about it & realize this is one of innumerable little examples of how clever thinking is punished in institutes of education.
this kid followed all the rules as written and answered correctly. the mistake was from the teacher, for leaving a loophole in the instructions to exploit. this deserves 10/10.
what books were you assigned to read in a class that you still hold a violent and bitter grudge against
for me it’s into the wild and the scarlet letter
one time a stranger on neopets years ago told me “school makes you think you have to be good at everything but sometimes it’s ok to just be good at one thing. even if it’s not something you get a grade for. they don’t grade you for being a good person” and tbh i still think about it little did i know all i needed this whole time was in glowing purple text and that icon of the goth fairy

i can’t wait for my “good mood” to crash like a freight train on the titanic once i step foot into school
peak comedy is realizing people from your high school are trying to become social media influencers
I wish college hadn’t become close to a universal experience. It’s almost an expectation now and I hate it.
Eventually, youll be expected to have a life-time education alongside your job
Honestly if credentials keep becoming worth less and less I won’t be surprised
Autodidacts will become more valuable. Quality will outcompete quantity, but plebs will still be fucking incompetent in general including their ability to quantify quality.
But they’re still going to hold autodidacts (by which I mean good/successfully/usefully selfeducated ones) to the standard of wasting half of their life in useless unrelated courses (just to prove how good of a mindless drone of a worker you are) like making contentfree powerpoints about literally anything for a garunteed A+ for a class about the feminist critique of math and physics.
“No half-of-life-wasted in pseudoeducation? no job, no paycheck, no raises, no benefits. But also, you are obviously 1000 times more valuable as someone with a home education and years of research on an unbelievably wide, but well prioritized variety of subjects including everything you need to know about this job and even innovating our industry, BUT you still cant hold a job or us jobs unless you spend the rest of your free time studying for mandatory courses for this job that dont actually help you with this job – it’s not fair to the other unpaid interns that you get to skip on classes altogether. If you want hopes for a paycheck, you have to slave yourself to our new cult society where we win -sort of- and you lose -definitely. Anyways, My 17th vacation this year starts tomorrow, and when I come back, I expect you to have a good report card”
“okay fath- uh- boss”
“good boy”

The fact that school is soon is putting me in a very shitty mood
