Oooooh that degree qualifies him to be (flips through pages) Lord of a seventh-century fiefdom! Or a Lady, it's 2019 after all

You can't wield supreme executive power because some watery tart threw a diploma at you

Used to be you didn't even need the diploma.

Anyway, here's my sad. Though it's mostly incandescent rage.

Hope these sadistic bastards get the max sentence. I wonder how many people are being charged, or if it's just the ringleader?

Oh man, that's disgusting. Sadly, people are capable of much worse things...

There's lots of evil in this world. Just that should encourage us to spread goodwill. As one wise man once said:

"I have found that it is the small everyday deed of ordinary folks that keep the darkness at bay. Small acts of kindness and love."

Sadly, someone's still not getting it. Society is venturing directly into hell, I'm telling you.

Compassion, friend. I am sad with you.

I do believe he was doing some sort of history thing, perhaps focusing on Medieval stuff.
Quite right! My comments on the heptarchy and Henry ii gave me away, didn't they? :P

Jokes aside that is a neat degree. A suppose some sort of research job would be in order?
That would be nice, but unlikelybunfortunately. Even with a PhD

Now what do I do?
Go back to grade school and intellectually molest those damn kids as you were molested in your youth. The circle of education must continue.

You're honest about things and you're too emotionally unstable to hire, you repress and hide all that nonsense and it's toxic masculinity.

Is it sexist to say that I doubt a woman with my credentials would have been passed over for this position for not being able to deal with multiple people shouting at her at once?

I mean... probably. Do you actually believe that, or are you just heated up and lashing out? Least in my experience women don't exactly get treated more leniently in the situation you're describing (barring maybe other considerations, corruption, cultural stereotypes vis a vis the position being sought, whatever).

It probably is sexist, but it's a teaching position which are often disproportionately held by women. I just can't help but wonder whether there is a disparity there.

I think I'm never going to be satisfied with my life. I think I've seen my future and it ends with my depression winning in the far distant future. I'm always going to feel hollow and empty, like nothing really matters at all.


I'm still going to fight this bitter, pointless war in my head till the end, and never give up. I just feel demoralized.

I don't think that nothing matters, but yeah, I completely understand you with this hollowness.

For me, it's perpetual switching from normal state to those of insane dwarves, when he's just hanging around and searching for some way to end this. Then it reverts to normal, and I'm thinking: "Man, how could I ever be so desperate? How such thoughts broke in my head?". And I think, that now I saw through it, it'll never happen again. Of course it does...

If I would want to be satisfied with my life, I could end it right know, 'cause I'm not gonna to be satisfied, not by far. But life is still worth living, if you don't become cacatonic dwarf, who just doesn't care, but try to make it better around you. Even in you hollow state, when you don't care anyway, if you try, you're hero.

We're all demoralised. I'm actually impressed I see that some guy is proclaiming to hold, and never give up. That's right, Hanslanda, that's right. Keep living  ;).

I love warhammer 40k simply because of the Guardsmen motto, "Hold the line and die fighting."

Oh man, I'm gonna immortalise this quote. "Hold the line and die fighting." That's... Just awesome. Not heresy at all.  ;)
