My gawd, I laughed to hard at this !

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?

I felt this was more common in elementary and middle school, but since high school and well I to college I barely every find myself writing the date on papers. But yeah, I hated reworking the muscle memory for the first couple weeks of the year.

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!

For real, my nsfw account gets way more use, lol!

Thats a thing! What’s the site?

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.

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).

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.

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.

Thanks that kinda reassuring!

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

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.

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.

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.

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.

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, 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.

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.
