  • I’m assuming money is not an option?

    Learn shit. Painting class, cooking class, poetry, random community college shit. Hire a language tutor if I could. And I’d hire a personal trainer and chef, since I’d have time to try and work on myself. Maybe a coding boot camp if I can keep up, so I can come back with a whole new career. I think I’d make that my goal. Dabble in as many things as I can to see what I like. And I also just like learning random shit.

    When I have three months left, I’ll take a trip to visit all the places I’ve been interested in moving to. I’d hope to come back healthier and smarter, in some way.

    I would also leave myself two weeks to just be before I had to go back to real life.


  • Yes, I was terrified, but I was also having a mental breakdown. I called my mom sobbing and she was actually the one who told me to quit. I was lucky that she was around because I leaned on her for about two months.

    If you can, look for a job, even if it’s gig work, before quitting. I know it sucks, but finding a job will be your new activity. In the mean time, switch to the bare minimum. Take longer breaks, use sick time, etc. Don’t burn any bridges. Spend time making a really nice resume/cover letter. Maybe even see if you can use some work resources before you tell them you’re out.

    If you can’t stand it a second longer, I would sit down and see what you have and how long you can last. Finding a job without a residence (in the US anyway) is difficult, so I would not do anything that would leave you homeless. Let people around you know if you have such people. Tell your friends, parents, etc., so they know that you may be needing support. Do not tell anyone from work until you’re ready to go. Make a budget. Make one for if you have literally no money coming in so you can see the worse case scenario and have that be your starting point. You may even want to look around for food banks and so forth, especially churches during this time of year. It may not be everyday, but they do dinners more often in the winter. Write them down or save them somewhere that odes not require internet/service.

    Good luck. I wish you you happiness.


    • People who take phone calls with it on speaker
    • People that have anything on speaker while in a public place
    • Wearing “MAGA” clothing
    • Having a cyber truck
    • Leaving large gaps in the drive thru queue
    • People with young children that they dress up like little adults.
    • People who refuse to learn basic tech (email, texting, etc.)
    • Edit: People that don’t like animals, or they dislike just cats. I feel like people who don’t vibe with animals in some way are… Off.

    damn, I’m a judgy bitch






  • It’s an open world action game, and the story is very good! The writing is so good that I played the DLC in the middle of the game and didn’t realize it until the end (bought about a year out of release) . It’s that cohesive. It’s one of those games that you can just lose yourself in. There’s fast travel, but the landscape is so inviting. I also think the fighting is really well done. The way they integrate fighting styles and the story telling is too notch. Maybe look up a play through and see if it’s your jam. I hope it is!











  • Tame stuff.

    When I was in college was was sending cat pictures to some random person. They only replied when I asked something specific (“When are we meeting,” or something like that). They replied with “Hey, I’ve been meaning to tell you, this is the wrong number. Love the cats though.” The messages had been meant for my grandma.

    Second time, in high school, I got a new phone and was texting my whole two friends so they would have my number. I got a reply back that I wasn’t “2ugly2live.” apparently, the girl I texted also had a friend with the same name and thought I was trying to impersonate her. And I thought her friend was trying to trick my friend. The other “2ugly2live” texted me and she used a lot of l33t speak, so I shot back to who I thought was my friend that it couldn’t be me, “she can’t even spell!” Sent my friend a message on aim and she was like, “???”

    I apologized to both randos and we got a chuckle out of it.
