just a guy, nothin special...
so, it's 7 am on new year's day... I finally decided to mess around with my smart tv after like two years and look at channels/apps instead of playing video games. I found the A:TLA channel... it's the beach episode, somehow I ALWAYS end up tuning into this show on THAT SPECIFIC EPISODE EVERY TIME!

Considering how badly my dad's family has always treated my mom, I really shouldn't feel bad having disdain for my grandfather being in my city for Christmas... but he's senile and 90 years old. I felt horrible when I went to my grandmother's funeral and I've just seen him decline rapidly since.

Angry tears are hot and bitter

Sad tears are cold and salty

So, happy tears should be warm and sweet right?

Well... I don't actually know because I've never had happy tears. I only know the first two, but I can tell you that the tears from being tired taste pretty dirty and are not hot or cold

thoughts are loud lately... might start a blog just to get them out of my head. used to keep journals, used too much paper. I have to do something, they just keep getting louder... can't afford other alternatives until I find a job.

Did try talking to another person... one sided yap does not work

Sort of related, but not really... it's more of a general observation about things that kind of infuriate me at times.

I really don't like people who have the "you know what you did" mentality when it comes to approaching misunderstandings regarding hurt feelings or making someone uncomfortable.

i'm still trying to keep my social media use to a minimum... at least on the posting front, I'm not too happy about my crash out two weeks ago but I had to let it out eventually. I guess it's safe to say that those former "friends" want nothing to do with me anymore?

Whatever... I've made my peace

Normally I stay quiet about personal issues, but some things should never be buried... and what I've endured in the past couple of months cannot be ignored anymore. I never shared it here but last year I lost a very close family member in august and it really wrecked my mind in some really horrible

i went an entire month without posting, that's how little i did between jobs... the hunt hasn't been kind to me and i hate thinking about the one comfort i had slowly becoming a very vicious enemy in my unemployment times
June 1, 2025 at 4:06 PM
nothin worse than bein unemployed, on "this day" of all days... and then gettin emails all of the sudden not knowin if they're legit or just trolls regarding replies to applications I put in or if they're real job offers.

(legitimately from an empty inbox to flooded overnight... and i check DAILY)

8 years is a record, but the job hunt sadly starts anew on monday... while I'm happy to be free from an abusive workplace, I kinda wish i got to leave on my own terms instead of a bullshit technicality that protects customers and the business but not the employee who was scammed by a shitty customer

While I enjoy marvel rivals and hanging out with friends... the release window for games over the next couple of months is brutal, so I'll be on the high seas with majima until WWE 2k25 and then after that maybe xenoblade chronicles x

Life goal, get "hot to go" to play at a little Caesars... but it's the kidz bop version

Customer bought me a coffee today because I looked exhausted and they missed me on my birthday last week... today's a pretty good day
January 23, 2025 at 7:27 PM
birthday went well, but i was not expecting the system shock when i returned to work on monday... it's not a "wow, i'm getting older" type shock either.

I'm not even sure how to put it into words actually... it's just like, the moment i returned to work that something just feels off about 2025.
January 16, 2025 at 5:54 PM
Oh, I never told socials lol... Saturday is my birthday
January 9, 2025 at 10:04 PM
I missed the christmas boat, but to be fair... when it wasn't work that kept me away, it was a social media blackout because of a friend's event i wanted to support.

I hope everyone's having a great holiday week
December 26, 2024 at 3:23 PM
sorry, i know I said i'd use this more often... but i don't really have a lot to say honestly and most of the time i don't even know what i could say.

I'm good at replying to people and commenting on posts for the most part, but i've never been great at starting the conversations...
December 13, 2024 at 7:05 PM
not sure if there are bot follows flooding in now, but I am getting suspicious of follows when they don't share any mutuals in common... or have basically blank post histories/profiles minus a single link and/or like no responses.

My job really couldn't wait to roll out the Christmas music...
November 29, 2024 at 2:34 PM
I just realized, at work I'm so straightlaced that no one suspects that I'm the one who programmed "5318008707" into all the calculators in the store...

I think I have the work frustrations under control now, I'll try to go back to being more upbeat and vent less whenever possible... I'll have interactions limited for a bit still as I can't always check this as frequently as I'd like honestly.

But rest assured, I'll only turn comments off for vents
November 16, 2024 at 3:25 PM
sorry, I know it's been a week but it's also been a crazy couple of weeks... so STORY TIME!!!

I don't have any IRL friends here (... yet) but even if I do in the future, this is still a safe space for me to share this since I've always made it a rule to not interact with coworkers on social media:
November 14, 2024 at 3:25 PM
I just realized, I don't know how feeds are shown here but I apologize in advance if you are able to see things that people I follow post... I tried to keep this as clean as possible but I follow a lot of 18+ content creators and some are really cool friends i made and became fans of their works.

Maybe I'll wait to use this social media account until AFTER the election fallout? I work at a polling location and it's kind of taxing on me dealing with that shit at work as it is, and I fucking handle groceries all day...
November 5, 2024 at 3:56 PM
I think after halloween... i'll try to be more active, and i mean like I won't be posting from work anymore and actually use this site on my time off since i've added everyone i could find so far
