This org has been emailing me to apply for months. IDK how to feel about it. On one hand it's one of those things that probably looks good on a resume & being in D.C. would be sweet. OTOH this looks like a neoliberalism incubator... but I also need money.

Sounds absolutely ghoulish. Do it, take notes; Names, addresses, phone numbers, floor plans, passwords, bank accounts, security pins, org charts. Or, you know, whatever.

I'm really good at wearing lanyards but I also want my life to have meaning blob-no-thoughts

Brother, go make money.

If those ‘fulfilling’ jobs are not immediately accessible to you then chasing meaning from a job is nearly a hopeless endeavor.

Do all the drugs, and just deny it. Pitch your most insane 'reading incomprehensible theory whole tripping on like 5mg of acid' ideas seriously.
