this week’s reading is Filterworld
The depression hasn’t come back yet.
It’s a relief!
A thing (well, a set of things, it’s something like 2 dozen SKUs) I designed just got a UL listing for the first time, so that’s exciting. Not my first time working with UL, but first time something that I’ve taken all the way from concept to a manufacturable product has been UL listed.
I’m back! Sort of. I spend way too much time on bsky these days, although it’s not looking so rosy anymore. Also, I’m trans and kobold now and it fucking rocks!
I recently got out of bsky. It’s just not fun anymore.
I was a beta tester for Bluesky so I’ve been using it for a long time. I have ZERO problems. As far as I can tell users have 100% control over their feed. What exactly is making your experience ‘not fun’?
Still haven’t found a new job. Many more “sorry we loved your vibe but we found someone more experienced” to add to my resume tho.
The only difference between weeks is whether my batteries hold up. It’s overall an ongoing shitshow with every offer of work and temporary housing ending up in ghosting.
still riding out my burnout but otherwise good. i’m going to a birthday party for a friend shortly, starting off my week by reading Jesus and John Wayne by Kristin Kobes Du Mez.
my week is all about planning to start a local Working Families Party group and preparing a series of campus teach-ins as a protest against new policy re: gender in the classroom. fueled by dense bean salad. lots of dense bean salad.
Well, my salary just went in, so I started paying my bills. Just now, I renewed my monthly public transit pass, and I am pretty much debt free - until next month, that is.
