Big blow. He's one of the reasons I like it here.
Goddamn it.

General manager is resigning.

Oh damn. Too soon, feels like you've just barely started! Any chance you can follow him to where he's going?
Ohhh fuckity.
Boss: How do you feel youβre going?
Me: Iβm planning on resigning in 2 weeks.
Boss: β¦ can you not?
you: Sure if you change [x, y, z that's making you leave]!
He's going to discuss with the directors about sidestepping me into another role, I'm not well suited for the one my original role grew into. I'll see what they offer, but I think it'll be adios for me.
Hope it works out well whichever way it goes π€
I've been complimented on my mug today.
Gave me a nice little laugh.
OK. I might do some tv and movie stuff . I just look at random stuff or maybe watch what other people talk about.
The Package aka The Pakige with Gene Hackman. Before Die Hard there was The Package but without the jokes or impressive action scenes. 2 hobbits.
All Is Lost. If self reliance really was a thing then there would no such thing as outside people or events messing up life. Robert Redford was amazing in this.
3.5 hobbits just to watch RR
kevin can go fuck himself
I am reminded of Henry Miller writing of another author, the author writing of a man cut in slices, different aspects of the man and their life written as separate stories. Much like his nexus trilogy. Maybe he was talking about himself, eh.
or the verve singing their bittersweet symphony , being a million different people each day
edgy brave smart woman sick of stupid men tries to fight the system
but really, how many chances do stupid abusive men deserve? dumping them is not giving up, it's being real and cutting losses
this show had real potential, wasn't renewed
I liked Kevin Can Fuck Himself, it shows a really interesting perspective. I haven't watched the type of show they're making fun of in a long time - is Kevin exaggerated or are sitcom husbands really that bad?
got my entire maslowβs hierarchy of needs satisfied yesterday βΊοΈ
Kinky
Woohoo, self-actualization!!!

Woot woot!
Tyre change booked in for 2pm. Condition report to be dropped off. Cleaning this arvo.
At work for half a day because I have so much overdue but also it's a nice bit of familiarity and stability amidst everything
Living off sheer adrenaline, yeah!!! I think I'll need to take an afternoon dose of meds today...
I'm pretty sure that chocolate used to coat Oreo Dunkeds is tastier than regular cadbury chocolate.
Here's hoping today is less of a fustercluck than yesterday was, but early signs are that it could go either way from here. Time to adjust my attitude and hope for the best...
(Also to all who went to Pearl Jam last night I am SO JEALOUS!!!) :D
I've never been so seedy in my life
Two day hangover? Ouchies.
Well, Spring is a great time to be seedy. You will grow and flower in no time.
Pearl Jam absolute rocked last night.
Eddie is such a treasure.
Yellow Ledbetter!
And rocking in the free world!!!
Was amazing!
Not a single bad song. Even the new stuff sounded good
I have realised that my enthusiasm level for going to work is closely correlated to how well I have done food prep.
Good morning all!
yay, today is Covid vaccine day π¬
So I went to check out this blue sky thing. It turns out I actually created an account on there at some point under my real name. I don't remember doing that, it had to be before Aussie.zone became a thing.
So I log into it, I'm already following half a dozen accounts that I don't remember following (but they're awesome people like George Takai and Mara Wilson).
Review:
It's all about US politics and how awful Twitter is. Boring. π
I never sent a single tweet in 15 years, I can't see myself using this site either.
Nath, if you're not into microblogging in general then perhaps you won't ever be interested in it, but the algorithm is easy to train or replace with a custom Feed, moderation lists like this one let you mass block confirmed dickheads, and labellers like this one let you filter everything else.
Given your skillset you might even enjoy creating and publishing your own custom feed algorithm.
I have a Blue Sky account just to secure a user name and... Just checked and got the same experience. I'll never use it either unless it becomes good for data mining.

Good night everyone , sweet dreams. πππ
