porkswordonboard posted:So I had a very eloquent response but my browser crashed, so I'll simplify. You and some of the other folks who responded to my post are in the right. It's entirely more complicated than I (poorly) expressed. Anyone who feels attraction to both sexes is absolutely welcome to call themselves bisexual. My one annoyance is with those rare people who try to jump on the bandwagon of 'specialness' that the LGBT community offers, and as a grumpy dyke I feel uncomfortable when someone labels themselves bisexual because they kissed a girl once, never really intending to do so again. These people do exist, and although it's none of my drat business what they do, I feel as though it somehow detracts from the real and dangerous struggles LGBT folks go through. Even though I know it's silly, and I shouldn't care. But I think it's part of the reason I feel weird using 'bisexual' as a self-identifier. It's a gut reaction, and not really applicable to the intricacies of how the world works, and I'm already sorry for re-starting this derail. No one cares, or: Why couldn't your browser have crashed again

So svbtle is apparently a blogging site so I don't even need to pretend to shoehorn this in. I'll give you a link to a WaPo thing rather than his blog.Justin Keller posted:Open letter to SF Mayor Ed Lee and Greg Suhr (police chief) 1) You moved there and it keeps getting worse the longer you live there? Could there be a causal link between the two? 2) Really, you're so scared of a man taking his shirt off. You live in SF, isn't that kind of expected there? 3) BOOOTSTRAAAAPPSSS 4) Obviously he doesn't understand that there would have been massive rights violations to move people out of town for the weekend so that Super Bowl went well, how you can bootstraps if your rights are being violated buddy? 5) Advocating for tyranny, classy mother fucker right here.

"The reality is, we live in a free market society. The wealthy working people have earned their right to live in the city." "I am telling you, there is going to be a revolution." Amazing that someone can type both these things and not realize the incredible irony.

My boyfriend is a programmer, and he readily admits that he was very lucky. He was lucky that both of his parents were doctors and his school was paid for. He was lucky that his hobby turned out to be a well-paying profession. He was lucky that he had friends in the city who helped him land a job.

Elderbean posted:He was lucky that he had friends in the city who helped him land a job. It drives me nuts. In my animation classes we had one guy who was amazing, like disney quality hand drawn poo poo, but an anti-social rear end in a top hat. Not a bad guy but I'm sure he was autistic or something because you could pretty much see the panic in his face every time someone he didn't know talked to him. So he didn't talk to people much, but his work was the best in class. Then there was the guy who spent the whole class just chatting with the professor, he barely passed. His work was basically just a step above a powerpoint, at least when he actually showed up for the presentations and turned it in. But guess which of these two got a ton of recommendations from the professor for work once we graduated? Last I saw the first guy he was working at Target. It's just kind of depressing every time I read someone say "Oh just work hard and you'll get a good job!" because that's not how it works at all. I don't think it's ever worked that way, has it?

I'll give you a link to a WaPo thing rather than his blog. “Above all, one hideous figure grew as familiar as if it had been before the general gaze from the foundations of the world - the figure of the sharp female called La Guillotine. It was the popular theme for jests; it was the best cure for headache, it infallibly prevented hair from turning gray, it imparted a peculiar delicacy to the complexion, it was the National Razor which shaved close: who kissed La Guillotine looked through the little window and sneezed into the sack.”

What you described doesn't sound like an rear end in a top hat, just someone with social anxiety. And while it's true that someone outgoing will always get ahead first, your professor is the rear end in a top hat for recommending a mediocre student instead of helping a genuinely talented person break out of their shell.

It's also possible your professor saw someone who will fit better into what is the factory art system of animation. Sad but true, it's a team-based art form and so, being able to work in a team is a really integral part of it. You don't have to be the best artist, you just have to be good enough. Often, it's more about speed than skill. Because of this, the talented but neuroatypical types can sometimes get crushed by this system. Just because someone has a talent for something, doesn't necessarily mean they're built to (or should) pursue it as a career.

Often, it's more about speed than skill. He said the student recommended also only occasionally showed up to class or turned things in, so no, that's not someone ready to survive in an animation workmill. There are also jobs like concepts artists who work outside the factory side of things, but need to be genuinely talented that a professor could have encouraged a shyer person to pursue. I know I'm derailing about someone I don't know, but hearing about a professor like that does annoy me. Being in a collaborative art field is tough, even more so with social anxiety, and having professors willing to help me with that side of it was part of what allowed me to actually succeed in what I do.

Often, it's more about speed than skill. They don't. The skill level for getting a job in an animation studio is disgustingly low. I've seen people teach themselves lovely flash animation in less than half a year, not actually learn proper techniques, then get a job at a well known studio because they got drunk with the production staff. I've seen it happen several times. You have better chances getting hired if you draw Zelda fanart than if you can actually draw or animate. Why do you think anything that actually takes skill like Legend of Korra gets outsourced to Korea? There's also the thing where the teachers will ignore people like the actual talented people or try to crush their individuality only for the students to leave and become big names in the industry. Then suddenly the teachers and school scramble to talk about how they were their favourite student, omitting the fact they purposely tried to fail them out of spite because they didn't want to put poop jokes in their super serious film.
