ugh. don't mind me.
there is a particular character (shall we call him) in these parts... he really rubs me the wrong way.
i think it's because he was meant to introduce someone for something... a lecture on ethics. a nice lecture on ethics, actually. anyway, in the introduction he was not able to say much because of something... something about how usually he would gush about all the money that the speaker had brought to the university...
and i wondered if it was botox...
but, no. i think there is something... off... about him.
anyway... he is all involved in equity stuff in these parts. i guess it's a case of the primary beneficaries giving him all that money so he can ensure they remain the primary beneficiaries of the status quo. you know the idea 'we need to do 5 million generations of research' before state the obvious will be acknowledged. and so on...
i said it a while back... about how i couldn't stay here if i didn't get to do med because it would turn me into a psychopath.
i need to not interact with him. i need to not work on equity because stuff like that seems primarily stocked with those who work to serve the interests of those who keep the equity groups in the awful condition they are in.
it's sad. it's not that the people are undesirable. it's that the ones profiting at their expense... the property managers and the like... the managers of the clinics...
i guess that's why here is a sorting hat. there's no freaking way you'd hang around.
anyway. i'm mostly done with him / this now.
strange... all the way back when someone gave a talk and Rawls... the original position. people here just can't / won't... i don't know if it's a however many generations of inbreeding thing or quite what...
