The current job market is pretty awful and I'm feeling distressed but I'm still trying. #disability #hiring #socialwork #RIF #immunosuppressed
If I'm able, I hope to visit family at Christmas. A lot just depends on so many variables but if I can I want to make a cookie or candy to take like 8-10 people. I have no skills and no idea what I'm doing. Is there an easy place to start?

I mean I legitimately can barely make a grilled cheese....

Read about Ahmed al Ahmed, local fruit stall owner and savior of who knows how many lives. May we all be this brave and righteous in a crisis.

Locked in the Garage. Acrylics on paper.

This is how it feels to need a job and see listings but be unable to access them. I've applied for almost 400 jobs since August but it feels like there's just increasingly less and less hope. The job market is so bad. So I draw, and paint, and pray...

"I am the ghost of Christmas future imperfect conditional," said the spirit.

"I bring news of what would have been going to happen if you were not to have been going to change your ways."

Yea, verily.

Here's a guppy inspired by some of Paul Klee's work. This actually took me a really long time because getting the colors soft enough was more difficult than it seemed like it would be. Acrylic on paper.

Is it actually possible to find remote work for people with #disability or is it a pipe dream? I have a masters in social work (MSW) and the job market is so bad right now. I have so few resources. I have no immune system so it's perilous to work in an office but there are so few jobs anyway.
