The Politics Of Your Midnight Spaghetti Bowl

^{Dear Graduate,
Subject: My two cents:just avoid being stupid.}

^{You’re not just the next generation — you’re the 1st AI-native generation.
That’s leverage.Everyone’s talking about how rough the economy feels — job roles are shifting, prices keep climbing, and AI is rewriting the rules faster than teachers can catch up.
But this so-called crisis isn’t just about AI — it’s as much about the economy itself.}

^{For students and young hustlers, it’s easy to feel like the ground is moving under your feet.
So instead of asking, “How do I make it through this mess?” think, “How do I fail?” Then—don’t do those things.Think about your project goal right now. Jump six months ahead — imagine it failed. What went wrong? That’s your roadmap ✔︎}

^{Also try this:
Thousands of smaller businesses are hungry for young people who understand new tools like AI. There’s a vast, untapped market that rarely makes the headlines. Not all opportunity lives in big tech or big names!}

^{Dear Student,
Subject: Can laptop stickers open doors?}

^{Imagine someone leaning over in class:
“Hey, what’s that sticker?”
You smile and reply:
“Thanks — I’m studying computer science, and I’m looking for summer internship projects.”}

^{It’s not just decoration — it’s a conversation starter.A micro-resume says who you are, what you care about, and how to connect — without saying a word.}

^{Why It Works}

• ^{Visibility matters. Your laptop is open for hours each week. Students, professors, and everyone see it.}

• ^{Low-pressure networking. Instead of pitching yourself out loud, the sticker quietly does the introduction.}

• ^{Memory trigger. Visual cues stick. People are more likely to remember your name when they’ve seen it written down.}

  ^{Networking doesn’t have to be formal, scripted, or intimidating. Sometimes, it’s as easy as a sticker on your computer. Next time you open your laptop in class, let it do the talking.}

^{Dear AI-reliant gen alpha,
Subject: AI said it? Cool. Did you fact-check it?}

^{The internet called it the ‘Pooptastrophe.’} 💩

^{You can tell a lot about a generation by what they search for.
And if you peek into GenZ and Gen Alpha’s search bars — it’s equal parts genius, chaos, and existential crisis. Early 2025, the internet had one of its funniest “AI oops” moments.
Remember this? A question for Google’s AI search“How many rocks should I eat?” — and the AI confidently replied:“At least one small rock per day is good for your health,” citing “UC Berkeley geologists” as the source. (Spoiler: it wasn’t.)} 😅^{The post went viral — not because people believed it, but because it reminded everyone that AI still needs fact-checking and a human sense of humor. So next time you ask an AI a weird question, maybe double-check before you start chewing gravel.}

^{Pasta & Politics: A Very 2025 Problem}

^{If you’re thinking “Ugh, politics doesn’t affect me, I’m just trying to pass my finals” …Well… surprise! Your bowl of penne  is now part of a global trade drama.}

^{As a student, you already know one universal truth:
Noodles & pasta are the unofficial midnight fuel of every assignment ever written. Cheap. Fast. Comfort in a bowl-Until now !}

^{With new tariffs on Italian pasta expected to spike prices by up to 107% , your go-to meal might suddenly cost more than your weekly coffee habit. Thanks, global economics.} 🫢

^{AI is coming for your hair}

^{As my son prepares his first-year university budget, we realized something hilarious — haircuts actually made it onto the monthly expense list. ✂️ And that got me thinking: if you’re a student on a budget, a $0 “AI haircut” might sound like a dream — no appointments, no awkward small talk, just a quick virtual scan and instant style suggestion.}

^{But before you let an algorithm near your locks, here’s the thing: Whether it’s a high-tech clipper in your dorm or a barber in the mall, the way we maintain our hair is about to change—and college students(or parents) footing the bill may be the first to benefit.}

^{Next time you’re budgeting your ramen or weekend parties, think about this: your next fade might be done by AI-guided scissors completely unbothered by your Monday-morning face.}

^{I am in high school: explain it to me .}

^{Introducing the Future Of Work —Tomorrow’s most stylish innovators will mix tech, science, and sustainability — and redefine what fashion means. The runway of the future is wide open!}
