we're scared and hateful of people different from ourselves because we're cocooned in our houses and our cars with our takeout delivery and grocery delivery and clothing delivery and gadget delivery and streaming services, and only feebly reach out to others just like ourselves through social media

I just received another job application rejection email... 5 whole months after I applied. Though I suppose receiving even a late rejection is better than no response at all. I'm so thankful I'm not still job hunting. How miserable that was.

Holy shit. Marcy Kaptur becomes the latest Dem to release an anti-trans ad, and its worse than all the rest combined. "I voted WITH Republicans to keep transgender ideology out of schools, and let me be clear, boys should NOT play in girls sports." This is getting out of control.

I doubt I'll ever play WoW again, but Forever is their best shot at bringing me back in. It's tempting. It's also being called a "millennial retirement home" and I feel very seen.

curated comic by known author using a scene from DS9 of Miles and Julian having a pint in Quark's; Julian: Ive been feeling like I dont belong. That I don't deserve being where I am and doing what I do; Miles: Ah. The old impostor syndrome. I've been there; Miles: The key is to remind yourself that everyone else is an impostor, too. And you damn well deserve your share in whatever scam they are all running! Julian: Did you... did you just fix impostor syndrome... with spite?! Miles: You wouldnt believe how many things I fix with spite; *Miles and Julian clink glasses*

I get a refund notification from Paypal for that part of my order within minutes. I go back to the vendor's website, easily find the rotors I need and place a new order. They ship soon after, and are expected here on Monday. It's been a month since I made my first order. Why is this so hard.
100
Erorus @eror.us · 11/07/2026
"Except we don't have those rotors in stock in any warehouse. I'm sorry." Well, hang on. They're not lost. UPS has them. Probably insufficient postage. Get them back, or pay them to send it, whichever. "No, we don't do that, we have to send another, and we're fresh out." Useless. Refund me, then.

Erorus @eror.us · 11/07/2026
Vendor says they'll do a trace on the package, and they give me an incident number. UPS tracking says a trace was started. Okay. A week passes. No movement. I call vendor again. My incident number was incorrect. Eventually we find my order, and they say "that package is lost, we'll send another."

Erorus @eror.us · 11/07/2026
I tire of waiting, and call the vendor. On the call, I realize the rear rotors I got have the front rotors shipping label, so they swapped labels. They weigh different. The fronts are heavier. The missing fronts only paid postage for the lighter rears, so that's probably why they aren't delivered.

Erorus @eror.us · 11/07/2026
CW: dull. A month ago, I'm told the Evo needs brakes. I order pads and rotors, front and rear, online. They ship soon after, with 4 tracking numbers: front pads, rear pads, front rotors, rear rotors. Days later, I get only 3 boxes. No front rotors. UPS tracking says they're still at the first hop.

In other news, I've realized that the bones of this country's laws functioned only via the cartilage of our mores, which have eroded over decades, potentially beyond repair. Our body politic is arthritic.

Over the past 15 years I've really wrapped my "Erorus" name and online persona around WoW. Now I'm wondering how much I want to continue using that name for other things. The last strong tie to WoW I have left is Undermine Exchange. I don't want to keep dragging that WoW baggage with me.

So, yeah. PA unemployment is going to be super confused how I made money at the beginning of June for a "job" I don't really have. I have no idea how they expect people to report irregular income and have one-offs and side hustles while seeking full employment.

Erorus @eror.us · 17/06/2026
Technically I pay self-employment taxes at the end of the year. This is not a new thing, I've been doing this for years. But there's no "business", there's no wages, there's no hours, it's basically a hobby. But one year (way back when) when I claimed it as hobby income the IRS was like, "lol no."

Erorus @eror.us · 17/06/2026
So technically I don't work for myself again, I selected that it was "part-time" or whatever to get across that it's irregular. I reported the income for that first week because it's the right thing to do, and because it'll show up on taxes etc, so yeah. But it's not a job. Am I self-employed?
