☔️ Stoof! ☔️ @stoof@octodon.social

I'm slowly realizing that for me self care means doing the things I hate and put off forever. But man it feels nice when I'm done.

There are certain MeFi users whom I wish had their ability to comment on certain topics turned off. If you feel the need to ignorantly foghorn your stupid, bossy opinions and orders (wtf even?!) into threads about sensitive issues POC face, just close your browser.

So many uncomfortable white people in St. George's Chapel rn

Everyone seems v. grumpy lately

Writing cover letters makes me so anxious I usually have to take a barf break

Yessssss power is back on

Stayed up to 8 am drinking and talking about cats. As one does when one is unemployed and directionless.

The standing desk fad is weird. Workers have been standing for eons (and wrecking their backs and legs and feet), but suddenly it's a fresh new idea when white collar types want to do it.

Let's bring back "jazzed"

Wow.that feel when talking heads still refer to "alleged victims" even after the creep's been convicted.

Writing cover letters makes me anxious. I need an ad libs cover letter.

I discovered a decent all-day breakfast place in my area so today has been A++

My coffee is terrible but I keep drinking it every day in hopes it will somehow improve. I bought a giant can of it. But really, coffee time is supposed to be a happy part of the day! I should ditch the mammoth can and buy my normal kind.

I actually got up early and went to the grocery store to get bread and milk like an organized person! I wanted to beat the ice storm that's rolling in. Currently charging all devices, also like an organized person.

This is my last week at my current job and I am SO PSYCHED.

I could be making posters or icons or pamphlets, you know, stuff no one else here can do, but instead they have me working on fiddly MS Word tables.

I had a nightmare early this morning that I was a big liar who was extremely anxious about being discovered. I'm just going to assume this is directly connected to crippling imposter syndrome and job searching.

But. How about some positive visualization, brain?

Would like great job to fall into lap. TYVM

This job ad looked ok until I got to this bro red flag:

"Must be comfortable being in an environment with electronic vaporizers "

I always end up half-watching documentary tv shows about cranes/ships/construction. The producers try desperately to make the show suspenseful and tense, but, like, it's just a luxury villa, guys. It's not "catastrophic" if the concrete is late; the billionaire investors will survive.

I just realized that I've been purposely (but unconsciously) refusing to learn where places are in Ontario. Like if I learn the province I'll be trapped here. Pretty silly, brain. Off to look at a map.
