It's just so incredible to be sober honestly. I didn't realize Monday was day 100

The point of right wing hyperbole is to make any real discussion about sensitive topics impossible. You're either fully for something or you're not. They've been kicking ass at controlling the narrative since Obama and it sucks.

Are we actually witnessing a coordinated global effort to kill democracy and reinstate empires?

I love that in North Carolina, nature mingles with civilization still at least a little bit. Here are some cool animals I've seen just in my backyard and by my work

Honestly y'all Gen Alpha and half of Gen Z really does not know how to read and it's going to mean some pretty bad times up ahead

Why is Katy Perry infiltrating my consciousness today? She was in the LinkedIn puzzle games, the New York Times Connections, and all these articles about Blue Origin

Who the fuck cares about that more than actual horrific and violent crimes being perpetrated against black and brown people

i profiled the first major american environmental disaster of the trump era i would appreciate it if you shared, as the communities impacted feel deeply ignored by the mainstream media

Things have been absolutely terrible this year in my personal life and for the entire country, but I'm still staying sober and trying hard for the people I cherish and that's how I will win.

I'm seeking a transfer at work to avoid being laid off and it's taking WEEKS to get it signed off on. This company has insane levels of bureaucracy. This is all the shit that's happened so far and what's left. For a SUB 100K TC role.

Coming up on a week sober for the first time in I think 7 or 8 years? Shockingly feeling pretty okay.

I wish I liked Disney shit because Vincent D'Onofrio is one of my favorite actors but I'm just not going to spend that money to see that new Daredevil(?) show

Got so drunk I threw up on Saturday and decided I no longer have a good grasp on my relationship with alcohol. 2 days sober, baby steps.

One of the major driving forces in me finding a job quickly is that I need dental work soooo bad, it's so shameful that teeth are a luxury in America

I own a house now

You wanna hear something fucked up? I'm signing for a house tomorrow and I don't even know if I'll have a job at the end of the month. I have enough cash to make it a few months with no income, maybe end of August. Sure hope I find something before June so I don't end up with absolutely 0 savings

We can't have a country that fundamentally changes every couple of years. If we survive Trump it's not going to go away. We have a foundational issue in our political system that will be violently corrected, or will simply shatter.

Balatro is so cool, it's literally causing changes to the whole PEGI system because it's so fun and everybody loves it so much they couldn't stick to an 18+ rating

Atheists and agnostics, have you ever actually prayed? When I was a kid I tried really hard to believe God was real and I prayed pretty often and read Luther's Catechism thinking I just didn't know enough about God to make my belief work, just never happened. Ah well.

My work severance agreement stipulates that I'm not eligible to receive the severance if the reason for separation from the company is my own death. I gotta be real, I don't think I'd be able to challenge that one in court given the circumstances.

I think I've been taking my impending job loss pretty well, I've done the budget calculations to know how long I have to land a decent job, I've been applying to a lot of jobs already. But I'm overdoing it trying to renew some certs immediately and I've stopped eating most of the time which is bad

I wish I was more stupid, because I think I would be more happy, but then I wonder if I'm actually already stupid so I can't afford to lose any more

My company is giving me a few weeks to either move to Chicago or lose my job at the end of March. I'm supposed to close on a house in 2 weeks. Absolute devastation. Time to scramble.
