but disillusionment is realizing some of these unsubscribe buttons maybe do not work.

guess i gotta mark ‘em as spam then!

but in so doing, i actually got around to gaining some control back over my inbox. i unsubscribed to plenty of emails and i am closer than ever to every email being valuable.

next, i look forward to starting a beehiiv newsletter to pollute someone else’s inbox. or provide value. one of those.

okay, it has been several days now of removing the categorization that gmail does. i was admittedly spooked that they might use that setting as consent for less useful ai applications for me.

It's a useful reminder that sometimes tech can make a task more efficient for one side (applying for jobs), and more efficient for the other side (writing job adverts), and yet make the system as a whole completely inefficient.

Maybe this has always been the case. But feels more excessive nowadays. Anyway, weird complaint I know and I definitely wanna go see The Roses, ngl, but just a thought. Maybe even enough to inspire Original Screenplay filtered search.

God is great though. hmmhmm. i know you working overtime for me, creator 😅

also i had a very important zoom meeting on saturday and i was the MC and omg i hope this hissing is not on that recording 😩 i was having such a great time MC'ing too 😭

unfortunately for me, this is coming up at the same time that I broke my Mackie MC-250 headphones. not sure if i wanna just tape it up and live like this for a while longer or fork up the cash for the same headphones or something new entirely.

h/t to The Business Journals for pointing me in this direction. www.bizjournals.com/bizjournals/...

my current, oft-cited lamentation is no longer being able to buy adobe products that i want without a subscription.
