The Dark Side of the Hustle Mentality: Striving for Balance and Well-Being

Breaking Free from the Chains of Hustle Culture: Embracing Equality and Compassion Our society is driven by hustle culture and relentless pursuit of success, America finds itself grappling with a deeply ingrained mistrust of fellow humans. The idea of wealth distribution and the possibility of everyone living well like upper-middle-class individuals is often met with suspicion and jealousy. This…

Salary credited to your A/c.....😂😂😂😂 best feeling 😂😂😂

Hi there, I noticed you missing from my dash recently. I hope everything is going well for you, and you're away from Tumblr because life is good. Best wishes

Thank you for checking up on me. My job is just kicking my ass atm, so I haven’t had the time (or the mental energy) to come on here. I just took a few days off from work for the first time in months and felt like logging back on the Gay News Network.

People would call you communist for this (lol) but the solution for the housing crisis we have all over is to set a minimum and maximum price per square meter that you can rent/sell a place for and that maximum price per meter should be adjusted so that it never exceeds a specific reasonable percentage of local salaries. Also, governments should be tougher on places not being fit to rent. No, you shouldn't be able to rent anything less than 45m² as 'a flat', that's either a room or a storage unit.

Don't get me wrong, I love all the library love out here on tumblr, but boy oh boy the contributions to vocational awe.

i will always advocate for skipping classes btw. to all the high schoolers following me: don't sweat having a perfect attendance record it quite literally does not matter. if anyone tells you good attendance is important for being considered for scholarships they're lying to you. my attendance was fucking abysmal and i was offered several full-ride scholarships because my grades were still solid and that's all 90% of colleges care about.

and besides. taking care of yourself - whether you need a mental health break or you're tired or you just frankly don't want to go to that fucking class - should always take priority! now don't take a page from my book and skip a month and a half's worth of pe classes because you ditched One Time because the coach said he was going to make everyone run a mile that day and then he kept trying to get you to "make up" the mile that you missed so you kinda just stopped showing up until he gave up on you forever like please know that you should go to class regularly BUT.

i think taking time off and leaving early and such needs to be normalized. for school and work. i don't think it's fair to punish people for needing breaks. the human brain is literally not made to sit in the same stifling environments for 8 hours almost every day and just focus on "working" or "studying" and "learning." it's very cruel to deprive young, still developing minds especially of proper breaks and time to Play (not that it's not cruel to do the same to adults)

if the system won't give them to you freely though... well. break the rules a little. you know your limits better than anyone. don't try to work to an impossible standard. rest when you need to!! it's very, very easy to burn yourself out, but it's very, very, very, very difficult to recover from it

how to make 19 year old boy who came of age during the pandemic and never had a real real job before now realize he needs to Chill The Fuck Out and be Less eagar about working for free holy shit he is impossible to wrangle

Look, I've spent my entire adult life advocating for voting as harm reduction, that candidates will never be perfect and most democrats are really just centrists who we have to scream at to get them to do damn near anything, but that's still preferable to the outright violence of the republican party. I get the point of voting as not the only step but the first step. But. But. But is in the middle of a genocide really the time to be hollering in people's faces about how they cannot vote third party in this coming presidential election? About how they *have* to vote for Biden, because at least he's not Trump? There is a time and place for the discussion about avoiding putting a dictator in the Whitehouse when we have a broken two party system where the electoral college does not adequately represent the will of the people. I would politely argue that time and place is *not* in the middle of the sitting president endlessly doubling down on supporting an active genocide. People have the right to be furious with the democratic party. People have the right to not trust the democratic party, or agree about them being "the better of two evils." The Clinton administration escalated the War on Drugs, gave us the deeply anti-Black "super predator" concept, and are the origins of today's ICE and the deterrence strategy that has led thousands of migrants to die in the desert. The Obama administration broke records when it came to drone strikes over Syria and when it came to deportations. Continuously using the threat of the Republican party as a stick to pressure folks into voting Democrat grows less and less effective every time the Democratic party makes concessions that move it farther center. Which they have been doing since the Reagan administration as a strategy to capture centrists and maintain power. The Biden administration has done good on a number of policy fronts. But it's also caved to pressure to end the public health emergency, ended eviction moratoriums and been slow on a number of fronts to address people's rising unrest at the soaring costs of inflation. Our current Congress has been a shitshow rife with in-fighting that has stalled out key policies, and yes, has seen Democrats make concessions to Republican extremists in ways that weaken bills that could have gone farther in providing relief and boosting our failing infrastructure. Then we hit October, and the US federal government throws its weight behind a genocide, ignoring the swelling outcry and condemnation from its citizens. The US government is continuing to fund Israel's genocide of Palestine and federal staffers are having to walk out on the goddamn job to get their bosses to acknowledge the calls coming through. Biden has been caught multiple times spreading misinformation regarding the genocide in Palestine. Representative Rashida Tlaib, the one Palestinian American in Congress, has been censured for daring to speak up on behalf of her constituents and condemn this violence. Funders of the democratic party are angling to force out Progressive members of the party like Rashida Tlaib, Cori Bush, Ilhan Omar, and others in the upcoming elections. Hollering at people to "Vote Blue no matter who" right now is profoundly callous and ill timed. It is also a remarkably ineffective strategy to try and ensure we don't have a red wave in the coming election. This is not a matter of "holding your nose and voting" this time. There is a 12,000 person body count in the last month. Americans are watching live on Twitter as Palestinians are slaughtered with our tax dollars. We are witnessing a Democratically controlled government still choose to fund imperialism over feeding, clothing, and housing its citizens. I beg you to consider how callous you sound throwing a fit about folks who no longer see supporting the democratic party as a valid strategy to fight Republican conservatism as we witness three genocides at once.

the problem of the matter is i did internalize so much of what ex friend believed about me. even though i knew he was wrong and knew what was happening and tried to stop it and if i took more action to stop it would have been abusing power i held in a way i couldn't live with myself for.

not to be political but I've seen a lot of people saying that those who call Israel an apartheid don't know what they're talking about and um. As someone who has studied South African apartheid as well as grown up in a Jewish community. This claim has more merit than you think

I may be considering the crime of... Getting a business degree 🤢

i have got to become insaner about things.

The fact that Texas is an at-will state is actually so evil and makes me feel completely powerless. At my childcare jobs, there was at least the assurance that nobody wanted to do the work that I was doing, (including many of the other people doing it) but now that I'm at a job that is actually almost enjoyable, it's, like, really not doing good things for the "everyone has to like me or I will Literally Die" complex I've been cultivating since childhood. Because I am very aware that I can lose my job just from a single person maybe not liking me.

Also, can I just say??? Attendance policies are such fucking bullshit. At every one of my workplaces, I have seen people do such shit work, or cause so much drama, only to get in way less trouble than I do for being a little late, or absent a couple times. And my bosses will even admit that they know I'm doing good work and trying hard, but because there are these easy little boxes for them to check off, oh, look at that! Looks like we have to write you up, so sad. And this kind of policy is so ubiquitous that no one even considers how unbalanced that is.

Not to mention that attendance would be way less serious if anyone, anywhere, ever actually staffed decently. (In my opinion, this would mean scheduling twice as many people as you "need".)

The way having a job works is insane and unnatural.

Halloween is coming up, and I am once again feeling a bit. Idk. Sad? Embarrassed? Guilty? All of it? That I don't plan on wearing a costume for it

My students have seemed disappointed about it (one of them even joked that it's because I'm boring, which stung even though she meant nothing by it) and I kind of like. Wish I was into it? But even though wearing a costume sounds fun in theory, it just pokes at too much stuff for me.

What would I be? How would I cope with feeling like my costume looks bad (bc it's not perfect) or the feeling that I look very stupid (which I'm sure they wouldn't think) ? How would I deal with the logistics—if I put it on at home it'll be impractical on my bike. If I bring it to school, how do I decide when to change into and out of it? And then, how do I deal with potentially being on pictures? Etc. Etc.

So instead I'll be boring Mr. Matt and deal with the embarrassment of being the only one who doesn't participate because I feel too embarrassed about participating, and the wistfulness that comes from wanting to join the social activity but not knowing how to do it Correctly and not doing anything in order to avoid a bad grade in Being Social.
