this campus may as well be a cemetery, here lies A, class of 20XX, who died this way on this day in this place and was on this team and in these clubs may their soul rest in peace. over and over and over again every single time

even when a guy died under weird circumstances in mexico this spring, they pushed out every detail possible through email, put out news updates, oh it was deemed a murder, no he got electrocuted, no he got murdered with electricity, my condolences to everyone, push this into every college inbox

i’m so sick of it, i’m so sick of the college administration and our professors throwing emails at us with all the mental health resources when they know damn well we don’t have the time or energy to seek them out because there’s a project due that’s worth a third of our grade and 150+ pages of reading a night, or 3-4 major labs, plus research and all the busywork that involves, we’re all counting how many nights in a row we can or have to stay up and how many hours we can afford to sleep if we want okay grades and a social life, and not even a partying social life, a social life where we have actual friends we see with any consistency

they do this every time, detailed emails every time, last semester, last year, 2 years ago, 3 years ago, 4 years ago

when will they address the real problems and stop turning our mental health into a circus
