In 2012 I ran for my high school’s student body president. I lost. Badly.
Do I believe there was collusion among faculty? Absolutely.
Did I complain, call for a recount, and threaten to sue?
No, I did not.
I pulled the fire alarm and was suspended for 13 days.
one thing this pandemic has made me realise is how strange it was that (in the before times) people were expected to go to work/show up to things when suffering or symptomatic with a cold or flu
no one talks about the loneliness attached to being the “bigger person”. you’re silencing yourself and dismissing your feelings because you don’t want to come across as aggressive for showing basic emotions but swallowing rage will cost you in the end.
