Oh no I accidentally networked at a thing for a former coworker. And now the formed VP of engineering at my old job is after my resume. And I’m like no please but also would take a paycheck.

No shade on traveling to Iceland because it’s a lovely place to visit and I would go again… but I just saw a video about going there for the eclipse and how it was cloudy… and who could have possibly predicted that a country known for WEATHER might be cloudy for a Sky Viewing Event?!
Can you REALLY not sign up for MNSure at all if you’re eligible to pay 2000/month for the privilege of using COBRA? Because that’s some garbage.
Also old username was getting emails from rando recruiters despite said email address not being listed on anything related to hiring for me. So clearly that name is searchable with my real name (I assumed it was, but got confirmation.) So hey, new username who dis.
This has aged SO POORLY. I do not wish to explain in public how badly. But lemme just say it’s in the realm of worst case scenario company I don’t wanna be involved with.
Oof. Talked with a recruiter today about a position that’s… um… attractive in that it’s a job with benefits, but I need to research the company a lot. It would save me some time if said company snoops on me enough to find out that this is my Bluesky account and finds this post to be a red flag.
If you ask for the spicy avocado salsa too confidently at Los Ocampo, they bring you three little cups of it.
Took my first satisfying shower today since we left on our trip last Sunday.
Jumped in Lake Superior today as well. Jumped in Bearskin Lake yesterday (no pics).

Yesterday, at friend’s birthday, I asked her husband if he knew of any places in need of a cloud wizard and he was like “yes actually my company is about to create a cloud wizard position” and this is the most hopeful I’ve been in a bit.
I’m stopping for boba and an elderly couple has just come in an ordered something completely new to them and I am so delighted
Really love for my body that it’s having a very HISTAMINE week
Wow, drunk people are so idiotic. Leaving downtown, I watched multiple people just SAUNTER across the street when an ambulance was driving towards them at an intersection. Did they have a walk sign? Technically, yes. But that’s not how that works.
lol 245 lbs is so many, but I squatted it and my knee only screamed a little bit
Applying for a job that a former coworker referred me to and this man I haven’t worked with in over a decade just had to attack me like this.

Wearing this old shirthausen to thank @danhausen.bsky.social for saying such nice things about my favorite indie promo, @f1rstwrestling.bsky.social
Love being able to tell if someone is in Iceland based solely on the amount of lupines surrounding them.
Not that I had a huge amount of conviction on the matter, as my misgivings were very “idk Kaohly Her seems kinda nimby”, but I’m definitely feeling glad that I voted for Melvin Carter for Mayor rn. St. Paul would prefer to be boring again.
Dear Warhammer Lovers, I am sorry. I do not intend to shame your fandom. I am simply making fun of my spouse’s video game on a public platform.
So my resume has been getting blasted out all over the place. What do you do if you get a probable call from a recruiter and they are supremely bad at having a phone conversation? They didn’t introduce themselves at all. Just a bunch of exchanges of “hello?” immediately after I got an email.
I’ve posted about Warhammer enough recently from my phone, that my algorithm is showing me “girly pop 40k model” content.
I will be missing the upcoming Kesha show and I’m sad about it.
Had a lovely dinner at eM Que Viet and… why have we never been before?! State Fair (they have them at the fair) Garlic Cream Cheese Wontons, and a ton of vegetarian stuff. They use vegan fish sauce in their vegetarian-oriented rice noodle salads. Great cocktails, including a happy hour special.
