I just had the sobering realization that one of my OCs who I have been writing about is essentially just who I would have become if my uncle hadn't died when I was 13 and now I'm just kind of stoned and sitting with that anyway here's wonderwall.

Then again, I'm also high as a kite and just used the word "efficacy" correctly so...

Ari (they/them) @ari-notsorry.bsky.social · 30/07/2025

I'm too high on the train after my 3.5 hour shift and had to move to a different train car to avoid having a panic attack because of a very mean lady and her screaming children so maybe I might be overestimating my efficacy in an apocalyptic survival situation.

I have watched my dream dissolve in my hands twice, now. And rebuilding it a third time has been immensely painful and difficult to the point that, sometimes, I question whether or not I want it anymore and whether or not anyone else even wanted it in the first place.

I've wanted to own my own restaurant for years and it just makes me so angry that I'm being met with so much resistance when all I am saying is "sexual harassment in the workplace is unacceptable" and "work-life balance is important."

Ari (they/them) @ari-notsorry.bsky.social · 29/06/2025

Meanwhile, I am busting my ass trying to move into restaurant management so that I can try to create positive and healthy work environments where the staff feels safe, seen and heard, and I just keep getting pushed out of leadership everywhere I go...

Ari (they/them) @ari-notsorry.bsky.social · 29/06/2025

That excitement vanished almost immediately when I learned that the owner of this new place is a serial abuser. And now I'm just really fucking mad because every restaurant owner apparently just fucking sucks.

Ari (they/them) @ari-notsorry.bsky.social · 29/06/2025

The last time that I heard about a new queer bar/space opening in my city was probably 4 or 5 years ago and it ended up being a huge letdown when it came to light that the owners of that bar were a couple of TERFS. So, a few moments ago when I heard about a new bar opening soon, I was excited!

Ari (they/them) @ari-notsorry.bsky.social · 29/06/2025

I would be lying if I said I wasn't very nervous simply because of how chaotic and disorganized both places seem to be. Hopefully, tomorrow will be better... but I'm not counting on it.

Ari (they/them) @ari-notsorry.bsky.social · 29/06/2025

Both restaurants are trying to get me through training as quickly as possible because of how desperately they need people, but I am having to chase down the managers to get them to actually schedule my training EVEN THOUGH BOTH PLACES HAVE ME WORKING REGULAR SHIFTS LATER THIS WEEK.

Ari (they/them) @ari-notsorry.bsky.social · 29/06/2025

Starting a new job at a place that obviously doesn't have it's shit together is super frustrating... but starting TWO jobs on the same weekend when BOTH places are riding the struggle bus is... excruciating.

YOU ARE NOT GOING TO WIN AGAINST PEOPLE WHO ARE CHEATING BY PLAYING BY THE RULES. YOU ARE SUPPOSED TO BE PROTECTING YOUR CONSTITUENTS AND YOU ARE FAILING IN EVERY WAY.

I literally could not care less about politicians introducing articles of impeachment against Trump. You already fucking did that and he was still allowed to run again and won the election. Impeaching him again will accomplish nothing and while you're busy with that, he's busy having people killed.

Ari (they/them) @ari-notsorry.bsky.social · 17/04/2025

Back when I was doing onsite catering and working a lot of large private events, there was this guest that walked around a party I was working with a plate of loose hot dogs. He had to have eaten at least twelve over the course of the night. I think about him a lot... and all the people he's killed.

I feel like I shouldn't even have to say this, but if you are using AI to write thank you notes to people, don't fucking bother. It's honestly fucking insulting and you should be ashamed of yourself.

Ari (they/them) @ari-notsorry.bsky.social · 03/10/2024

It is literally the top result. Like, your grandma is going to fall for this and get her credit card info stolen for the 8th time this month.

010

Ari (they/them) @ari-notsorry.bsky.social · 03/10/2024

Y'all, don't use google to search for shit until they remove the AI suggestions. I just tried to call customer service for Dominos and the first thing they asked me for was my credit card number and when I visited the site that google was scraping, it was not Dominos website, but a scam site.

I've had"Potatoes and Molasses" from "Over the Garden Wall" stuck in my head for three days straight in case anyone was wondering how I've been doing.

Ari (they/them) @ari-notsorry.bsky.social · 22/09/2024

It's weird to me that all of my friends in college were huge stoners but I didn't get into weed until I moved to the PNW. Now, I'm suckin' the glass dick every day.

000

Ari (they/them) @ari-notsorry.bsky.social · 20/09/2024

The reason I don't have much of an online presence is because the things that make me funny are... not appropriate for the general public.

Ari (they/them) @ari-notsorry.bsky.social · 17/09/2024

No stream today, friends. I've been sick the past few days and I need to rest. I'll be back at it on Friday! Take care!

Ari (they/them) @ari-notsorry.bsky.social · 13/09/2024

Ari (they/them) @ari-notsorry.bsky.social · 26/08/2024

Y'all. I served @therealelvira.bsky.social today at work and I am still reeling. She was so incredibly sweet and I was so starstruck the whole time because she is such a legend and an icon. 🥹

Ari (they/them) @ari-notsorry.bsky.social · 24/08/2024

One of my coworkers just asked me "How's it hanging?" and I said, "A little to the left," and immediately cringed because I knew that meant I'd spent too much time masking around my father this past week.

Ari (they/them) @ari-notsorry.bsky.social · 23/08/2024

This morning one of my co-workers asked "How are you today, Ari?" and when I turned and looked at him, before I could even respond he said, "Oh, my bad," with a concerned look on his face. Anyway, how's your morning going?

Ari (they/them) @ari-notsorry.bsky.social · 03/08/2024

I just heard someone say "Hold my Warby Parkers," instead of "Hold my glasses," and I've never been more sure that I don't want to spend any amount of time with a person than I am now.

Ari (they/them) @ari-notsorry.bsky.social · 27/07/2024

I had a guest tell me that the only way she could describe my service was "absolutely perfect" and it honestly is going to keep me going today, no matter what happens. Be kind to others, you have no idea how much it can affect someone. 🧡

Mother's Day at one of the most popular brunch restaurants in the city is really stressful, come to find out. Going to have to cancel my stream tonight. I have no spoons, no mana, no spell slots, no energy... However you want to say it. I'm flat. 🙃

Going to have to delay our start time until 4:30p. Apologies, y'all!
