I worked for German startup tech bros who decided to become freight logistics influencers. Fuck, those absolute cretins were the worst humans I've met maybe ever. I ended up on 100mg anti anxiety meds and I still hated it enough to end up quitting one random Thursday.

Some people are just destined to be soul suckers, and it's like a virus - those who don't jump ship end up catching the disease.

Actionable. Ugh.

I'm a girl with plump hairy legs and I'm hot.

Pawpaw. It's such a fun tree, native to where I live (East Tennessee, 7a), puts out delicious fruit for a very brief moment, and has a fun history.

The ice compartment of our fridge. It's always a fucking compressed block that needs manually smashing up. I fucking hate it so much.

Woman here: I'm not annoyed if a person I don't know talks to me, as long as a) they don't interrupt something I'm doing to have conversation and b) they read my body language and fuck off again the moment it's clear I'm not interested. But asking me questions when I have my headphones in to talk about inane shit while I roll my eyes? Nah.

I've been using chatgpt to help me build a Bubble website. That is, I am doing all the work, I just bounce questions of how to achieve things and structure conditional statements correctly.

Because I'm basically sanity checking everything it says vs copying blindly, it's interesting to see just how much it gets caught in a loop of misinformation. I'm lucky to be one of those learners who just needs an example, even if it's a shitty one, to figure it out myself, so I often find myself using it simply to see how it's NOT done.

But yeah, I know jack shit about coding but I'm sure AI code sucks ass.

Fuck. I just had a really promising interview, but it was three days in office, three days remote (5 days a week, so the days gradually rotate). I've worked remote for 15 years, not including three months in a terrible office job that I promptly quit.

I'm making a mistake considering this, aren't I?

Highly recommend hiking, or at least going for a scenic drive. I have been heading over to local trails a few times a week and it's amazing how much my brain has rewired from it. Like, I know the shit is bad, that hasn't changed, but seeing nature in force reinstalls this feeling of control. Nature always wins, these people will all be worm food one day.

In addition, don't say anything that suggests you will work, even if unpaid. Don't mention volunteering, helping a friend, doing remote work, etc. The rules are quite specific about what visas allow and do not allow, and many border people are just there to catch a paycheck - they will absolutely err on the side of denial. It is not a fair game, and you will not be given a fair chance to explain yourself.

Whether he stays or goes, he'll still be a cunt.

Turns out that when you do make that vote, the fucking Cheeto looking stupid fucker who takes bribes still wins. And I voted as hard as I could!

 

Until now this would have been a stupid question - this is my home. But we're in a strange timeline. My background is I was born in the UK, met first husband, married, got green card, that went tits up, divorced, met husband 2, found forever love, married, naturalized in 2021. Have my passport and everything.

It's my dad's birthday, and he lives in the UK. I want to go back and celebrate, but I'm nervous about reentry into the US. I naturalized during the Biden presidency, and I am a Democrat, I feel nervous that I have a target on my back. I have a home and pets here. Am I ridiculous for worrying or should I be cautious about leaving right now?

 

I've got a great life, I am not trying to avoid tomorrow or whatever, but I just really like staying awake when I'm absolutely balls ass tired. It's kinda addicting, like the sleepier you are, the more insanely good the sleep will be. So I find myself struggling, on purpose, to stay awake. I force myself to read books, or watch shows, or go on Lemmy... and I only just realized it's because I love feeling sleepy.

So uhh, anyone else got this?

 

Ahoy foragers! I know it's been a cold quiet winter, but we're standing at the base camp of a very fruitful season of foraging! I saw the other day that a morel had been spotted in Georgia, and I did some crunching of data soon to be published on my soon to be published website, and have it on good authority that next week might be our first promising window for morels!

I've never eaten one, have no idea how they taste, and am on one hell of a mission to find one this season.

 

She's a proper part of the family now! After two failed attempts, she's landed at her forever home. She seems to know it too - she waits at the top of the stairs when it gets to bedtime and screams until we go up and tuck her in with us.

 

I am obsessed with entering competitions, and I've won quite a few by now (I got free tickets to the same music festival seven years in a row due to my dedication). I love hearing stories of what others win and how they use their winnings.

 

For me, ramps and morels! I know we still have a couple of months, but I'm already prepping my knowledge and researching my locations.

 

It seems like sloppy bastards are a thing that happens to most people, and yet no one talks about it. I'd like to talk about it.
