My favorite part about being broke is being forced to call and go through a financial colonoscopy every single time I make a payment. Literally have not paid a few bills just because I do not have the patience, I'd rather just add them to bankruptcy.

The idea of spending money on a therapist to talk about the extreme stress of having far too little income is so laughable, it's absurd. Have any other ideas for the $700 a month income I've got? Apparently that stretches way further than I thought.

I'm 52 today. I've been unemployed for 364 days now, aside from seasonal or part-time work. I'm going to lose my house and my car. We have nowhere to go and no money to get there. At least my family thinks I should just look harder, because a 30 year old just got a job. Fuck this world.

Welp, I really tried to play Crimson Desert. I've hit a wall in chapter 7 called Myurdin, which is pronounced BULLSHIT. Ten seconds into every fight he throws me into explosive barrels, or ignites them with an AOE, and then I ragdoll until I've died. Pearl Abyss, fuck your boss designs.

I've got two weekend passes to Colossal Con North for anyone who needs them. I can't begin to describe the disappointment that goes along with why they are suddenly available, but here we are. Scalpers can get bent, I'll only hand them over in person #colossalconnorth #kalahari #whybotherplanning

I've been unemployed for two months now. I read today that Bessent is actively withholding unemployment data, it is too grim, he won't allow it to become public. I am sadly certain we are about to have a Greater Depression, how is everyone else out there feeling about their pocketbooks?

For the last decade+ being aware of politics has been painful and frustrating beyond words. Today I went to a progressive fundraiser BBQ and drank beer with a bunch of other lefties. If the US isn't dismantled, the next regime can't just be slightly less right wing. We need to turn this around.

Casting Taika Waititi as a completely over the top insane and evil CEO seemed silly when Free Guy was released. It's clear they knew about Palantir back then, I'm never sure if it's the news or an airing of the film at this point. Art imitates life I suppose.

I think it is equally funny and sad when political organizations email me to ask if I'll help amplify their social media reach. Funny because I believe the billionaires will never give up their hold on BOTH parties. Sad because my follower count is straight up depressing. I am unpopular 🥺

To every Republican who defers to 47 because they are afraid of being primaried: Welcome to the life of every citizen of this country. Almost nobody feels truly secure in their job. You get fully paid health care, pensions, and 2-6 years of absolute job security. Your complicity is being noted.

The sheer volume of articles that are big mad at David Hogg about really shaking up the overly comfortable career politicians in the DNC makes me entirely sure he is doing exactly what the wealthy hate, loosening their grip over the party. Purge the rot and reform the intentionally ineffectual DNC!

I would really like to play the version of Blue Prince that has everyone shouting GOTY. I seem to have purchased the one where you draw all dead ends straight away and the day is over after about a dozen rooms. It's a lot less a puzzle game than it is a deck building game that fucking hates you.

I am always amused at news media asking Larry Summers for his opinion on financial calamity. MF and Eric Holder invented "Too big to fail" and guaranteed no CEO would ever see jail for their malpractice. It's like asking an arsonist if a fire is too dangerous. Maybe he should STFU forever instead?

Members of Trump's former administration have said he has the mental acuity of a 5th or 6th grade student. Yesterday he proved that they misspoke, they clearly meant a 5 or 6 year old. The US is cooked, because 22% of the voters thought he was the better choice. Room temp IQs are too common 😭

Politico dances around what the issue with Schumer's leadership is. The word count at the top of this screenshot tells the whole GD story, 9 mentions of 'donor' in this short and clueless article. JFC, it is impossible to prioritize the 0.1% and win votes. How is this lost on every idiot in DC?

True story: There was a rampant rumor at my H.S. that I'd eaten a baby. I thought it was hilarious and leaned into it. 🤣 My H.S. was in the same town as Olivet Nazarene University, so there were a lot of Nazarene kids (Nazzies). The Nazzies would stand in the way of the doors to spread the word. 😑

I am so amused at how incredibly stupid the news media has become. The "fight for the soul of the Democratic party" is a pile of crap. They will never convince the public of their platform when they refuse to denounce billionaires. They won't denounce AIPAC. They cling to that which makes them foul.

I was writing my lovely wife and trying to describe that I am often chided at work for not shouldering big and glitzy projects, as I am a constant gardener. Marquee was the word I used to describe attention getting projects. I'll be damned if that ever looks like it was spelled correctly to me.
