Hubris is the language of the autocrat

-

I wanted to spend this week's blogpost doing something other than taking a dump on Trump, but the events that have transpired since my last blogpost have altered my plans. 

First of all, I completely condemn any of you radical woke liberals who wish death upon Trump. You truly are the scum of the earth. No one — not even Trump — deserves death. Have some compassion people, he too is a person after all. 

Now, back to your scheduled dump on Trump. It takes a lot of hubris, my buzzword this week, to say 

Don't be afraid of Covid. 

I'll admit, I'm not a doctor so take what I say with a grain of salt (as should everything you see on the internet). Take a look at these videos, you tell me, how unafraid of Covid does he seem to you?

Okay Donald, you're souped up on a bunch of drugs, including dexamethasone. Dexamethasone comes with a laundry list of side effects including grandiose delusions. It's funny how he says "Don't be afraid of Covid." Remember he's the same guy that has a team of private doctors, special medicines, and doesn't even have to foot the hospital bill. 

The second thing that stood out to me was this:


This picture just happened to have been taken 20 years ago. And guess who's on the right, our favorite child sex traffickers Epstein and Maxwell.  Ah, the irony.

I guess what irritates me the most about this entire situation is how tone-deaf Trump is about the virus. I don't care how deadly you think the virus is. Take a look at all the excess deaths we've had this year: 


The people that are affected by this garbage are all mostly Trump supporters. They're the people that are going out, not wearing masks, being completely irresponsible, and unnecessarily stressing our already broken healthcare system. And He's just encouraging that behavior. What an idiot. 

On a more personal note, I really enjoy blogging. I wish I could carve out a dedicated chunk of time to get out all my random stupid thoughts. If I had my way, this blogpost would be like 4000 words long discussing tin-foil-hat conspiracy theories and my thoughts on healthcare. 

If anyone picked up on the capitalized H in the last sentence, I think it's ridiculous anyone would describe Trump as the second coming of Christ. 

Anyways, I hope y'all are doing good. Tune in next week for more garbage, or as Jake Tapper put it "a hot mess, inside of a dumpster fire, inside of a train wreck." :>

A Trip to Carnegie Mellon

 Having lived in Oakland for the majority of my life, I was born in India, I've never had the opportunity to live in a "big" city. I've only lived in the suburbs. When it came time for choosing colleges, I definitely didn't want to end up in another suburban city *cough* *cough* Ann Arbor *cough* *cough* and so I looked elsewhere.  I became quickly fixated with Carnegie Mellon. Pittsburgh, where Carnegie Mellon is located, is an odd city. It's got a big city feel without actually being a big city. Rather than trying to describe Pittsburgh, here's a picture that I took when I went there (funny how I committed to a school I hadn't even visited :P) blogger compression is so bad :( Pittsburgh has a medium sized downtown with SKYSCRAPERS!!! I'm so excited to be going to a college in a city with SKYSCRAPERS! In any case, the rest of Pittsburgh, outside of the main college town, is just run of the mill suburbs which is a nice taste of home. Having been to...

Ha! You're Poor!

The Great Gatsby highlights the disparity between the upper and the lower classes of society. The disparity between classes is extremely visible in the United States. Poverty, the classic marker of the lower class is a constant, self-propagating cycle. We start the poverty cycle with a family in poverty. This family in poverty cannot afford to properly educate their children. These children continue their lives with sub-par education, which leads them to make sub-par decisions. They are more likely to choose not to pursue higher education, which then leads them to struggle to find jobs. Their inability to find jobs means they struggle to earn enough money to get out of the poverty threshold. They then start a family, which just continues the cycle of poverty over and over and over again. There is a couple of welfare programs that the government can instill to help alleviate the problem of poverty. Obviously, the easiest way to get people out of poverty is to simply provide them w...
