One of the hardest things to face is the reality is that we are all on borrowed time here. It's even more heartbreaking to be told and have to face that I am a lot less borrowed time than I thought I was with my furry soulmate now. I just hope I can make it through it all this time. 💔

Don't do it! I promise you. The job market is horrible out here.

Since I never seem to see anyone's posts in my feed half the time, I am gradually just turning on notifications for individual people as I go. So I if start engaging a lot more with your content, then that would be why. I am still specifically curating my feed here. Le sigh.

The tarot people and tin foil hatters are back on my fyp on TikTok. Either there is about to be a collective crash out or it'll just be me. This level of delulu is a lot even for me. Stay tuned...

I love, love these hoodies when my one friend had her boutique from 2018-2022 she sold these too. I still have some of mine from then. An all black hoodie has been heavily requested of me.

3 things I have decided on today:

1. I am re-joining Twitter. Why? Because not everyone migrated over. 🙄
2. I am going to just share my thoughts in posts unfiltered.
3. I am going to keep going in the career direction I am currently until the money runs out completely. Why? Can't get an FTE job.

It is the unseasoned boiled chicken and rice flavored music. Don't get me wrong. I liked a lot of TPD, but it's also because I am a forever sad girl.

One week?! More like only 5 or 6 full days. You're being way to generous here with a full week.

Some of ya'll asked for an all black hoodie since I opened my small boutique within the past month. So, here you go! This black half-zip hoodie should arrive by the 24th of October. I absolutely swear by these hoodies and have for years!!

If you want to pre-order one, let me know!

The amount of jobs that have wasted my ever-loving time over the past 7 weeks with their "we want someone with more experience" in marketing is such BS.

I've been in-house and external facing. I can confirm that a lot of companies haven't a clue what they are doing. It's all corporate cosplay. 🙄

I need someone to put that one sign on a shirt that says "respect my trans homies or I am going to identify as a problem."

I did put my hate won't make us great sign back out because I've done with these bigots around here.

I have officially been TikTok influenced and bought a mechanical keyboard. The first one was a total fail and got returned. The second one that just arrived this evening has a much more silent and creamy sound to it. Not to mention the rainbow back light is so cool. I'm in love! 😍

Friend: "hey I got free tickets to this event where I live. Want to come for a short visit?"

Me: "say less. you don't have to ask me twice."

Also me: "train booked. hotel booked. see you in a few weeks!"

Do I have the money for it right now? No, not really.
Do I care right now? Also, no.

I haven't yet but if you have any recs, then I am all ears.

Anyone have recs on low-cost courses & certs to explore to get back into a cybersecurity role? I have a TryHackMe subscription & looking at Practical OSINT with TCM (for security research). I am looking for more options to get back into a direct role in cybersecurity. Drop some of your recs please!

After 5 interviews & waiting over 3 weeks, I didn't get the role at Huntress that I was hoping to land. To say I am already exhausted by job hunting would be an understatement currently. The reality is I want the income and job stability, but it doesn't look like that's in the cards for me now.

Today would have been my 12th wedding anniversary. A few of the rare images left popped up on Facebook. It put me in a somber mood. Why? Because I lost nearly everyone in the divorce except my matron of honor. We're still friends. I feel it's the price I had to pay to choose myself, heal, and leave.

Currently still barely have a voice this week. Feel free to revel in it or provide sympathy. I don't mind either way.

But I will remind you all to wash your fucking hands and mask up again this Fall because it's germy out here.

Naturally, a minority of the population out there is like, "omg why is everyone making this a huge joke?"

Oh... IDK...Maybe because we have a circus government admin run by clowns., humor is the only way to endure any of it. Let us have this! Now shush, my rapture news update and GRWM is back on.
