Happy Sunday, comrades!

This thread is a space for you to talk about anything cool you've got going on, anything you want to vent about, or whatever is on your mind. Hope you've all been doing well!

For my own part, been inside trying to stay warm the last 2 weeks or so. Tried to go on a few dates, but either my mental health stopped me, or the person and I just kinda stopped talking. Didn't really feel much like leaving the couch. Today, however, I'm getting stuff done, and them going to stay a few days with my primary partner.

Had a job interview on Friday that I'm actually kind of excited about (aside from the 'hey you need income' thing) - it's a position that would see me working with nonprofits in a consulting capacity that I will not explain here at the moment. We'll just say its a tech role, with salary comparable to my last job that I got let go from, which is a good thing. Also doing my taxes now and that'll be a big help with stuff.

Beyond that, finished Jojo's Bizarre Adventure and loved it. Anyone know where to get an English version of Steel Ball Run?

Hope you've all been doing well, and remember, you are loved Care-Comrade

the triple whammy of cold/flu, constipation and dehydration really put me on my ass. completely obliterating my weekend. maybe I'll call out from work this week just to regain some sanity

I did meet a new comrade helping out a local homeless camp last week tho that was cool

Picking up a couple more shifts at work. Not sure whether I want to get a new day job just yet.

Been handing out some of the homemade kombucha that I started making, people love it so far. Some of it was at a potluck my friends hosted.

The bigger projects are dragging along slowly, but I'm making steps on getting organized. Closer to being up-to-date on paperwork than any time in the past 4 years.

The place I was hoping to find housing in totally dropped the ball, and I can't even actually afford a full-time semester even if I wanted to. Fuck.

First thing tomorrow I'm going to try to apply to a local community college so I can take some courses. I fucking hate being broke, but I cannot afford to be a manchild either. Shit sucks.
