I got a new job! finally out after 9 years at a call center. Things are heading in a positive direction. I hope everyone has a great week :)
Hey that’s awesome! Sounds like you’re off to a fresh start.
That’s great! Best of luck
Congratulations!
Hope it’s a start of more good things to come.Congratulations!
Lol, can I answer this even though I don’t have a Beehaw account anymore?
It’s ok. But it’s been hot weather, like summer. I want winter and the cold to come already. I have gotten started with a programming course in C#, some tasks are difficult but it’s fun problem-solving. School is ok, my classmates are nice but unfortunately I don’t seem to have much in common with most/any of them.
All in all, things are going alright. I remade all of my Spotify playlists which has been therapeutic. Now I’m just chilling, school is draining sometimes. But life is ok. 👍
If you have any c# questions shoot them my way
I will! Thank you for offering your help. (:
Had an exposition over the weekend and it was amazing to see all the different perspectives, and made new contacts. I’m currently secretly living in my atelier so I really need contacts to find a better living situation, so that was a relief. Also my aunt and uncle were there and they were the last people I hadn’t come out to yet, because I love them but they can be very conservative at times. But well, it was kinda hard to hide considering that my new name was written on the flyers and that I was wearing my makeup. I can’t express how happy and relieved I am that they are completely supportive!
That’s great news! Sometimes I think things are better without a ‘conversation’ if you know what I mean. They can see you’re happy as you are and you don’t necessarily have to put pressure on yourself to explain anything.
Ya it was like that. I really hate it when people start asking about genitalia.
In this case it was more emotionally validating from their side, and we agreed we can talk more about it in detail another time because it doesn’t matter so much.
What’s funny is that I prepared really a lot to talk with them, an prepared materials and stuff. But then it went like this.
Yesterday was my birthday!
It was a nice and easy going day spend with my family. Topped it off with going out for a nice dinner.
I enjoyed it, nothing fancy but just the way I like it :)Happy late birthday! :D
Thank you! :)
Stuck in meetings all week. Caffeine will be critically important.
Also, Zombies, Run, a magnificent app, has stopped working for most android phones, and it’s a major bummer
Honestly, pretty miserable. A “promotion” ended up docking my partner’s pay (the difference in what they were making got rolled into benefits) and now we went from being totally fine to things being tremendously tight basically overnight. It’s been hard finding work on my end and I’m just incredibly stressed. I’ll be alright though, I hope.
Starting off rough, honestly. Local citizens where I live are fucking with the public library and it’s infuriating and depressing and frustrating and I feel powerless to stop them because the majority of the people here are okay with it.
What exactly are they doing with the library?
Trying to get books relocated/removed because they find them “obscene” (i.e. featuring gay characters or addressing things like racism). This kind of nonsense has been happening in a lot of libraries around the US, sadly.
Oh no…
Is this a situation where people with the loudest voices get their way, or is there some board pushing their views on the population?
What kind of recourse do you have in such situations?
Asking out of concern and interest, feel free to leave it at this if you don’t want to go into it.A little of both, actually. Not sure what the recourse is, which is part of the distress.
But…coincidentally I just found out the city is hosting a book drive for literacy awareness this week, so my book club is donating copies of all of the books that have been removed to the book drive. Not much but it’s honest work, I guess!
I guess that means my week is improving!
Sorry to hear about your library, it’s awful when a place that’s supposed to have a positive influence on people gets treated like that.
At least the book drive will make up for things, a little bit… It’s great that you manage to put a positive spin on things.
I hope the drive will be a success, best of luck!
Happy birthday to me.
Mixed bag so far. It’s been hot over here and I’ve barely slept so feel like hell. Auditioned for a new choir this evening and got in which was nice, it’s a great choir but just annoying that it’s the opposite side of the city.
Seriously considering getting an ebike now that they’ve ended one of the escooter trials here. Hard to know where to start though, not had a bike since I was a teenager.
I got food poisoning on vacation yesterday so that fucking blows. Can only really lie down mostly and then I still feel like I got hit by a truck. Hopefully it gets better :(
Ugh, food poisoning sucks so much, there’s not much you can do except go through it. Hope you recover quickly!
Flying out to visit my parents and brother this evening, so that’s pretty good.
What’s not very good is that my Mom got caught COVID for the first time last week. Then my brother says that he’s tested positive, though he’s not feeling anything. So yeah, I’m flying into the hot zone apparently. And as far as I know, I’ve never gotten COVID. That new booster that just got approved by the FDA can’t come soon enough.
Either way, it’ll be good to have the whole family together for about a week.
Hope everyone gets better soon. Had Covid twice and the sore throat is the worst, feels like you’ve swallowed glass.
in a tragic moment one of my friends has inexplicably nuked all of their contacts with my friend group for the 3rd time in a year and a half so lol, guess i’m just not gonna talk to that person again since i do not have the patience to try and sort their shit out again
What do You think 🤔 happened to them?
As someone who does this often, or rather did as I don’t reappear anymore, was always shocked when everyone just rolled with it when I popped back up.
But, never had shit to be sorted.
Sorry about your friend. Here
Just ended, now I’m ready to enjoy my weekend. Except it’s raining!
spent the last four days at a music festival, and my nose has been running all morning even though i was masking anytime i was indoors. 😷
i’m house sitting for the next three nights, so at least i’ll be able to get plenty of rest.
Any chance it’s allergy related? I get hit pretty hard in the spring and early fall with allergies, and it has always felt remarkably similar to the early signs of when I had COVID.
it might be, but i don’t think so. i’ll probably test in a few days to be sure.
New depressive episode after being almost functioning 👍
Don’t forget about your daily stupid mental health walk.
And have other people potentially see my physical form? No thank you 😤
(U right tho i really should get out of my smelly cave 🫠)
Do you mean that you’re obese? I’ve actually met someone today that I really like who is obese, and I’ve had a ONS with someone who was obese. Don’t sell yourself short!
Doesnt change the fact that im still really fucking ugly but thank u kind stranger 🥰
You know a lot of guys feel insecure about balding but I’ve always liked it. Same with gray hair. I also have a friend who is into people who are very skinny or are missing limbs. Weird I know but I am just saying you never know what other people look for. And at the end of the day its not your looks people fall for.
And I am not even talking about friendship here, which is arguably better for many people, or simply strangers.

You know this might sound made up but I’ve never met a confident woman except for that woman from the ONS. That’s what I fell for. She had been bullied so badly, at some point she just decided to start validating herself. It’s so rare.
And how is any of this related to friendship? Those are arguably better any way.
I’m stealing “daily stupid mental health walk” because that’s fantastic.
Love it, ha ha!
