Well it all stems from the fact that everything is context and nothing matters, we killed god and shat in his house of worship and build computers out of his corpse. Why bother fixing the writing and prose of what amounts to illiterate bums? Everyone dies. No one derives meaning from anything anymore. Everyone is fueled by opinion and facts are no longer objective sources. Value is measured in cash and blood. Everyone says “fuck you I got mine.” Who needs to write in the age of visual mediums? Who needs to think clearly in the age of social media and skinner boxes?

Who gives a shit anymore, anon? And even if you do care, what’s the point?

My co-workers regularly type up notes with misspellings but I just let it go usually, not something worth getting cunty over. Occasionally during a work meeting if someone is looking for "that one right word" I'll interject it, and that seems to go fine.

At one point earlier in life I held down two shitty jobs in order to rapidly pay down student debt. I was good enough at both so this butch Wal-Mart manager lady asks if I want to go full-time. I said "No, I'd like to maintain the status quo." Without missing a beat, she said "Status Quo? What's that?" It was very, very difficult for early-20's me to do this, but I recognized that the smart thing to do was not be snarky or sarcastic. I collected myself, and politely repled "I'd like to keep things the way they are now." With equal courtesy, she concluded our interaction: "All right, sounds good!"
