re: #18 Sherlock Hound

As a disabled person, Iā€™ve long been the target of lectures regarding my supposed lack of drive, productivity and ā€œpersonal responsibilityā€. Iā€™m sad to report that this is spreading to the rest of us. This is making the rounds.

Side hustle? That phrase is normally used by hunbots (multi-level marketing people, almost always women, trying to recruit new ā€œdistributorsā€).

Same here with my supposed lack of drive. It doesnā€™t matter what I learned in avionics I canā€™t use (itā€™s illegal for me), my licenses are useless for maritime electronics (no one in maritime businesses will hire someone with epilepsy), &c.

I got the same sort of comments when I was homeless. Lazy, &c.

Pro-tip for either disabled people or homeless people. You donā€™t have to like them. You donā€™t even have to support them. But you donā€™t have to offer up your opinion on why they are ā€œfailingā€ or how they are an ā€œinspirationā€ (I hate that one too).
