also, i can feel a repeat of 2008 coming down the line and i don't think im gonna make it on the ark before the rain starts
i think one of the reasons i'm in such anxiety and despair is i've worked myself into a mindset where i'm not gonna get a job unless it's given to me by someone i know, i know so few people, and the ones i do know don't seem to be in a position to aid that way
