the one good thing about sales: you can work when you want.

the bad thing about sales? that constant ping that if you turn on your phone, you can make more. #thestruggleisreal

Another day, another gin. All for you.

Long Covid has flared up, morale is suboptimal. But do I rest? No. I heroically drag myself from my sickbed to taste gin for your entertainment.

Today's sacrifice: Moonshot Gin. It was... gin.

Ah, yes, the beginning of one of my least favorite seasons: the season of my office being too cold for shorts in the morning and too warm for sweatpants in the afternoon. #thestruggleisreal

Ho, lastatempe mia panjo apartan maroton havas pri la purigo kaj aranĝo de mia ĉambro. ve, ĝi ne estas tiel tromalorda kiel porkejo aŭ alia kralo, plena je koto. efektive, mi ĵus draste ĝin purigis per balailo kaj polvosuĉilo lastan monaton! Kial mi estas trudata por esti enuanta la tutan sabaton! nevolante meti ĉion en la ĝustan lokon! ĝi estos en aĉa ordo, tiel frue kiel du tagoj! tio estas nenecesa turmento! #esperanto #TheStruggleIsReal

@Dianora I got poked in the eye for an entire concert at msft building #16 decades ago. I was literally squishing my right eye closed. #TheStruggleIsReal #UnderchinDangers #BaroqueSun

Ich habe viel zu viele Leute viel zu wenig gesehen. Das tut mir sehr leid.

Ich würde euch ja versprechen, dass das beim nächsten Event anders ist, aber ihr wisst ja, wie das ist.

Interesting read, but also horrifying. This stuff is already happening, writing spacing being flooded with ai stuff, and it's only going to get worse. This is also a place where the value of actual writers should go up, making our work worth more, but...

It's just horrible how people in creative fields, that bring so much enjoyment to the world, whether it's through TV/film, books, video games, are just art, we always seem to be getting the short end of the stick. Unless you're already a big name, it's tough out here ...

I got some writing in before work today, so that's good... But my Psoriasis is killing me. Itchy all over, feel like I need to claw all of my skin off. There's also such a sense of there not being enough time in a day, and I think more importantly, not enough money in the bank account to feel comfortable (which is really a big part of the stress causing my autoimmune disease to freak out). It's all so tiring.

An Tag zwei bringen zahlreiche Speaker*innen ihre Vorträge in 1,5-facher Geschwindigkeit. An Tag drei dann 2-fach? #rp25 #thestruggleisreal #wtf

Was ich meinen Klient:innen niemals sagen würde: "Ich bin so knapp dran, weil ich nicht wusste, was ich anziehen soll."
