Started reading @skybound.bsky.social’s new transformers comic.

Friends, I need your help. I've been trying to find a new Job for the last 12 months in order to move into our very first home (my fiancé and I) and after over 400 applications I'm yet to succeed. At this stage, I'll do any kind of work remotely. TTRPG related would be a dream! But not essential 💖
