Things Got A Little Heated In The Gc Today

Just found an absolute gem in one of my diaries that I'd forgotten about, here it goes:

"I think the reason I keep making excuses not to even try is that if I don't and I fail I can tell myself I still have this ✨potential✨, this magical, wobbly mass that may never be touched because if I use it, I might just learn it's limits, which, after an entire life of everyone telling me I could do anything, scares me into a state of academic paralysis.

And what if, what if I try, really try, and I fail? Then I will lose the piece of self-worth that is tied to thinking I am the smartest person in the room."

Maybe someone finds it relatable, cause I certainly did when I found it again

Computer, how do I quit my job and live here frolicking in the garden and baking sourdough all day? Quickest route, no generational wealth. Computer, do you hear me??

Me logging into ao3 to read fanfics about my ships after i just said good night to my family and that im already sleepy be like:

This close (👌) to dropping out of my academically challenging degree that turned out to challenge me academically (😮) and becoming a tchotchke seller

“what’s your dream job” im so glad you asked. picture this. i am the lone employee of a strange and mysterious tchotchke/bookshop in the middle of nowhere, full of fun and interesting things that i am allowed to take for the low low price of free of charge. i get one, exceedingly interesting, customer per hour. i work no more than twenty hours a week and am salaried 3 million dollars

Genuinely what did people who use chatGPT for everything do before it existed?

it really is crazy how quickly people were willing to just let chatgpt do everything for them. i have never even tried it. brother i don't even know if it's just a website you go to or what. i do not know where chatgpt actually lives, because i can decide my own grocery list.

Oh yes
