I had a job interview lined up for 3pm today. Customer service, nothing big. They emailed me at a quarter past eight to tell me they hired someone else and canceled my interview. 😡 Is this how we’re doing things now in today’s job market???

My spouse and I are both disabled, queer, and native. The world continues kicking us, and Shay was laid off. We are unable to pay July rent without also having Aug rent at the same time, so we are needing to pull another $1700 together immediately. www.paypal.me/jnwampler V: KajiW C: $kajiw
Goth music snobs will claim they don’t listen to Ghost because it sounds like Scooby Doo music and then turn around and jam to Bauhaus 😂
Hey, Khangi and I are trying to pay rent. It’s pretty hard to find a new place to live if we’re unhoused. We need another $200 to finish July’s rent.
Shay ❄️@spellsinsugar.bsky.social · 3w agoOkay, so I’m launching this with the hopes that in a week or so I can go “GOOD NEWS WE’RE GOLDEN” but after a long talk with Khangi, we came to this decision. We need the help. We need to accept the possibility that this may not be as fast as I want it to be. gofund.me/92295a4c1

Alright, formal post time: I’m officially looking for work. I gave myself a few days to process and now it’s time to Virgo up and get moving. I have just about three years of technical editing experience, five years of development experience, and I’ve been writing to spec since 2020.

Ivis K. Flanagan 🔜 GenCon@northerndreamer.bsky.social · 3w agoThings aren't good y'all - early this week my infected hand started going south. Today I saw my doctor and he said its septic. Now I'm in the hospital for round 2 of IV antibiotics, testing, and surgery. So, if you can help keep the beacons lit, I'd appreciate it. www.gofundme.com/f/help-ivis-...

One of my SoT players: I think it’s criminal we haven’t seen more of Anchor Root. Me: I can have her be kidnapped by Walkena?
Man, if y’all think this is wild, I have a distributor bankruptcy case that y’all should cover 👀 (I’m just saying if LegalEagle covered the bullshit Diamond/JP Morgan’s been trying to pull, I would be STOKED)
LegalEagle@legaleagle.tv · 2mo agoOK FINE we covered the Bricks & Minifig saga! Watch on Nebula and YouTube.
