Not that anyone cares but having written about it a few times I decided that I might as well mention that the business with my math test was finally resolved. I was allowed to have my grade on the test but they were very nasty about it and docked me 3 points for petty errors so I ended out with a 97 instead of a 100. Well whatever. I really stopped fucking caring after enough time passed.
That gets to be the way of it with bloated bureaucracies, apathy sets in eventually. The groups where you’ll find average people caring the most about what’s going on are the most chaotic and least organized. The best example would probably be a group of friends. If someone actually is your friend you are interested in their life and care about their problems, and likewise they will feel the same way if they view you as a friend. And that’s about the way the relationship goes. You aren’t forced to fill out paper work, provide 3 forms of ID, and subjected to sanctions in the case of a factual error. On the other hand what people care the least about would have to be the political systems in peaceful democratic countries. Especially ones where everyone (over a certain age, which is bureaucracy right there, why shouldn’t a 5 year old get a say in who will be president? at least the votes of legal minors should be provisional) gets to vote. Most people don’t bother to vote, and even among those who do vote you will be hard pressed to find people who actually know what’s going on or would list politics as the major concern of their life. Maybe people have faith in these systems and that’s part of it, I don’t know, but it really is a bad joke.
I guess today’s moral is to not cave in to bureaucracies even though you’re forced to deal with them, and that you should vote and follow political issues.
