Oh! Basically, I keep making it to the end of the interview process only to be told they love me, but unfortunately the company doesn't wanna make the investment in my training etc if I'm not able to stick around for longer than two years. I have professional experience, so naturally I'm not really applying for entry-level jobs. When I do apply for entry-level they tell me I'm overqualified. Vicious circle.

Tell them you're from the US, then they won't think you're over qualified.
Well I don't want them to assume I'm dumb either haermm

That is frustrating. You could lie about wanting to stay longer?
Can't, HR has to see the Visa etc before they offer a job. I would love to stay longer, but alas unless I marry a Brit, I'm boned.

It's our culture, it links violence and dominance and sexual potency together really badly. Mainly male violence and dominance. Better containing it to fanfiction that real life, I guess...
I suppose, but these are like teens writing this shite and thinking it's sexy. Dominance is one thing, but a lot of it crosses the line into actual violence. Dominance is about respect imo, not so much with some of this stuff 😖

Well, dominance can be about respect, but it doesn't have to be. I think it's really based on the same messages that we are taught. It's troubling, but I understand why these people find it arousing, it stimulates things that are reinforced in pop culture every day.
