4 years ago when @karnythia.bsky.social introduced me to the high life in Lollapalooza platinum. I have never recovered. @thewayoftheid.bsky.social
Living my best life at Lolla. My faves so far: Durand Bernarr (who I met after the show and got a hug from!), Magdalena Bay, Tyler the Creator, Tanner Addell, and Foster the People. About to see Olivia Rodrigo. Stressed about missing Korn. #Lollapalooza
Its still extremely humid, but no as aggressively hot as its been the rest of the week so I'm actually enjoying being outside. Dora hates it when I'm happy, lol.
Its raining lightly and I'm sitting under my patio umbrella enjoying my coffee and staring at my plants like the coastal grandmother I aspire to be.
But Dora hates the umbrella and won't lay under it so she's laying by the patio door staring pathetically wanting me to come inside.
Like. I'm legitimately on able to even have a garden this year because I got laid off at the start of summer. Its not that the garden takes so much time, its just containers on my deck after all. But working takes up SO MUCH TIME I never had the energy to do much else.
Ok I'll stop now, lol.
Back on Bluesky for one day and I'm already doom posting lol. Politics and gruel.
Like I'm not even talking about *waves hands* NOW. I mean just...who decided we needed to pass on free will and become cogs in the machine? If I get a time machine I'm going back to deal with those fuckers specifically.
Today's adorable little harvest.
Getting up in the morning, picking stuff out of my garden and then having a coffee with Endora on the deck is truly the life.
How did humans fuck this up so bad?
Well. As for me...I'm still unemployed.
I've spent most of my summer obsessing over my little garden, battling algae in my pool, being bossed around by Endora, and going to therapy weekly.
So. Pending financial ruin aside, not bad.
Nah its cool Endora. I didn't actually want to be stretched out and comfortable anymore.
Oh. So uh...what y'all been up to over here?
So. Along with ~ 6000 of my colleagues at Microsoft/LinkedIn, I was laid off on Tuesday.
I...guess that's all I have to say about that, lolsmh.
Love sitting in a meeting to review custom insights that I've spent two weeks putting together only for half of my work to get put in the appendix because "too many slides" when I literally just replicated the slides they asked for with the new data.
Generative AI is indefensible
1) USPS did not lose $3.3b. It provided a service that cost $3.3b. *The Pentagon* loses you money, however, every time it accidentally yeets a fighter jet off the deck of a carrier
I'm walking through the park to my nephew's babseball game and just passed another game where "Pumped Up Kicks" is being used as a walk-on song for a middle school aged kid.
That's... a choice.
Every visible part of him look like the last thing God did that day.
First of all, he's lying because he's ugly.
I can't remember if I used my water pik this morning but I'll never forget this.
this is the worst lie anyone has ever told
Naturally because this phone has been paid off for all of two months...now the hinge is fucked.
*sigh*
I was going to wait for the Flip 7 to come out this summer, but now I think I'm gonna go back to a Galaxy.
Game started at 9. It's 10:45. This is all about bit much for 5 year old baseball. We've got to get to Tae Kwon Do soon!
Sports auntie on duty! βΎοΈ
I was a solid Galaxy girl until they offered me a purple flip phone, lol. I was powerless against it.
I'm just very attached to having a phone that folds into this cute little square. Even though the folding is what causes the problems π
I really enjoy my Z Flip 4, even though I'm well aware that it's a piece of crap. But now I need a new phone (because Z Flips are garbage) and I can't decide if I want to get another Z Flip (because they are so cuteππ) or a Galaxy.
