If you’re a fat and ugly girl you are not allowed to lock arms with your fat and ugly friends and try to squeeze through the bar. If you’re hot it’s a diff story.

@Polymarket HR will be entirely outsourced in next two years. It’s truthfully not worth a company to spend $100k + on a person that comes into the office at 10 and leaves at 4 while they just sit in their phone and do nothing ever.
NYC is no longer a city, it is an algorithm.
If you live in, say, Cincinnati, when you go to get ice cream with your friends, you really are just going to get ice cream with your friends.
In NYC, this is not possible. You cannot just go to get ice cream, because, against your will, you are very self-consciously “someone who lives in NYC, going to get ice cream with their friends, in NYC.”
You are never able to achieve full presence of mind because you are constantly placing yourself inside a chapter in some made up, schizophrenic and highly disorienting book.
Put another way, as a New Yorker, you do not live in a city, but a massive, procedurally generated simulation of one. You are nothing more than a vapid unit of flesh and bone trapped since a Baudrillardian infinity mirror, where the references have their own references.
You become more of a vague concept than a real person—some strange, soulless mix of ambition and violent/sexual impulses—and in your constant confusion you fail to ever become a true subject.
You pay $17 for the ice cream cone. Then, you pull out your list of saved Instagram Reels which tell you where to get reservations for pasta later.
When you arrive, you find yourself stuck in yet another long line, with people who look just like you.
The longer you wait in lines like these, the harder it becomes to ever recover the soul of the person you were before you moved into your East Village studio.
