Your use of the present tense Commonwealth Urinative Collective Exasperational Exclamation is largely on point - good enough to pass for a fluent non-native speaker, at least

If by Careers in Quantum they mean working for brief, self contained, snippets of time I am a for that. Work being atomised and spread over the entirety of my waking (and occasionally dreaming) life is a big pass.
They aren't saying that, are they?

There was a very similar reaction here to Iraq in 2003 - both in the political leadership and the diaspora. The latter is understandable without much mental gymnastics. The latter requires a bit of a longer view of transpacific genuflection.

I expect more from a werd nerd! Am I, a bipedal primate, allowed to pronk, or does etymological dark lore forbid me from doing so? Must I leap, forlornly, never to pronk?

And obviously they are cheap cuts because they are in low demand. How much of a cow or sheep is liver and how much would it cost if every MAssHAt ate it every night?

The gist of suffrage I got was of "casting off a burden". The movement influenced the context and, in doing so, the perceived meanings multiply. Given how organic language is, it is not surprising that communication between generations is so hard.
Maybe an Unravelled idea? Generation Word-Gap?

One day we may speak of the "Trumpist regime in Bloviate America". Seriously, though, it is an education and a warning about care-and-feeding of democracies - seeing this play out. Not "back then" in unprecedented times or "over there" in vastly different places...

Part of me wants emphasise in my case it was more fear than direct violence but that plays into the reflex of ranking neglect and, as with withheld health care, we are talking about powerless kids who are being mis-shaped by this as well as physically harmed

I remember, as a kid, hoping the cops would pull us over to breath test my dad. I remember all the times we walked into family and friends homes and walked out again with nothing changed. Today family say how bad things were then but part of me thinks "No. It was normal. You made it normal."

Jesus Christ Superstar. I used to listen to it as fast as 33rpm would allow and as often as I could flip the discs. When they handed out Gideons bibles at school, I read it cover to cover like a novelisation.

I'm sorry, and I know it highlights my ignorance, but on first hearing Jacobs School of Music sounds a bit like Bob's Institute of Evening Medical Studies ๐Ÿ˜Š

I hate that it draws me in but today I am proud that I was able to say "not today". One day at a time. One day at a time. Localtemperaturesystemsfeelnaturaltolocalpeoplebecausethats whattheygrewupwithjustletitgo!

And just for the record, because any ambiguity can be interpreted as malice by default, I believe the aging academic is the moral vacuum...

I'm lazy and refuse to use AI so this is the best I am willing to do to reduce the message to something they might understand...

Am gloriously seeing more of this in the workplace. People going full foot-in-mouth relying on summaries of documents (and meetings). Lack of understanding as well as AI fueled alternate realities that just burn time to correct

When the friend you trusted to hold your spare keys goes on a bender then has a raging party in your house when you are at work that ruins the place you don't put them back into the key-trust rotation just because the judge forced them to enrol in a 12-step program..

In the story they credit smart devices with health tools as a factor. It is how I realised I had a problem a half dozen years ago...
