also i'm glad i've been getting more stationery photography on my tw*tter feed. that was what i used instagram for and i've missed it ever since i deleted my account years ago #stationery
also i got a few of these imported from japan and they're honestly not as good as the .7mm. for whatever reason the 1.0 hard starts
ampersand@0x0026.bsky.social · 10mo agofound out zebra sells a 1.0mm version of their d1 ballpoint refills but for some reason they're hard to come by in america
i think all ceos that have to lay off more than 20% of their staff should be publicly humiliated then executed
holy fuck after 10 months of unemployment i finally got a job offer
i was reading this quote and thinking to myself how fucking dense and naive are you. people need money to live, it’s hard to be an artist when you’re starving and there are companies that are already trying to replace any creative work humans do already
i feel increasingly that the tech industry needs to unionize now that companies are cutting half their staff and citing ai as a major reason for it
buying something from yahoo auctions japan and thinking to myself i'm gonna save some money then getting hit with the price to ship to us

imagine telling kids that music and tv streaming used to be free you just had to connect an antenna and turn on your tv/radio
i also hate that companies are getting away with significantly underpaying, one was willing to offer a max of 83k when i'm looking at senior roles starting at like 120k
it's kind of funny that companies will have a lot of requirements for their candidate and have like multiple interview steps but in the first interview tell you they aren't really sure what level they're hiring for or even what all the steps they want to go through
imagine the day dribbble dies an entire generation of design work is lost media
on god adhd kicks my ass cause what do you mean i can sit and play a new game for 300 hours, imagine if i could have spent the same time on any other skill
i think if i couldn't eat sandwiches anymore i would kill myself
