My apologies for my silence. I've been focused on "wooing" a company to hire me. What I will say is I did some "extracurricular work", something pretty outrageous in hindsight. They're a company that makes a product I adore, one I never expect to be hiring in one of my niches, so I YOLO'd. 🤞
@tuta.com Hi, Black Friday deals when? I can't be the only one looking to "jump ship" from Proton right now. Thanks!

Anyway ya, I'm broke and sad. All I want is someone to let me hyper-focus on their hyper-niche and get paid. 🤷
So I spent most of the time between Ludum Dare 59 and now away from BlueSky, and ignoring most of the world news. 🙉 While yes I missed hearing from my friends, not-gonna-lie it was the most mentally chill few months I've had in years. 🧊 TMI addiction is real and extremely harmful folks. 🙅💬

Me: Not dead. Servers: Not right. I'm concerned. Currently: Trying to make a local backup, but my local backup SSD seems to be dead. 😖 Regrets: Checking the price of replacement drives. 😵💫
