What gives, it’s Good Friday and I’m at work, that seems more like a regular Friday to me. Any bosses out there reading this - Jesus totally wanted all employees to have the day off on Good Friday. With pay. And a 4% pay raise. And you don’t want to let Jesus down, do you?

I’m just gonna say it - Buckcherry is an underrated rock band
Everything is great
Haha, April fools!
Love the start of the MLB season. Each team will somehow shove 400 games into 5 months that seems like 17 years and yet still charge so much that regular fans have to decide between paying rent or going to a game (and if you want to buy a beer, better sell that extra kidney)
Tomorrows Friday the 13th. The last time we had a Friday the 13th in March, the world fell to shit. So yeah, really looking forward to tomorrow… 🙄
Anyone else have that coworker who needs to keep their internal monologue…..internal?
I love my reading cycle of a @sgj.bsky.social book:
I hear about it and want to read it ASAP
I get hung up on his prose and wonder why I do this to myself and want to DNF the book
I get past that and get so into the story I can’t put it down.
He can be a tough read, but his books are SO worth it
I get that as a society we decided everyone would grow up and get jobs, but why did all the cool jobs disappear? Like I’d so much rather be a river pirate or an arctic explorer than a door hardware salesman.
The one thing they don’t tell you when you’re a kid about becoming an adult is this:
It fucking sucks. Don’t do it! It’s nothing but stress, misery and wondering where you went wrong in life.
Work has me stressed
Life has me stressed
Sometimes I think I should just stay in and become a potato and eliminate all the stress.
I just realized I’m not a potato, and that has me stressed.
I just had a 60ish year old woman stop me in the parking lot to discuss a license plate on a car that wasn’t even mine. Sundays are wild at Trader Joe’s
Today would have been a great day to turn off the alarm clock, roll over and go back to sleep. But to be fair, everyday would be a great day to turn off the alarm clock, roll over and go back to sleep.
Sunday nights sunset. While most of New England was upset that the football team lost, I was stoked with the show the sky put on. #photooftheday #photography #boston
So, hypothetically of course, if you had a coworker who constantly hummed, all freaking day, in a falsetto hum - it’s ok to beat them with a sock full of frozen sticks of butter, right?
When will co-workers learn - if you’re sick, stay the hell home. Selfish people don’t want to use their PTO for illness and risk getting everyone else sick.
Is it too much to ask for this impending snow storm to just dump 2 feet of snow on Boston??
I just worked 5 consecutive days for the first time since the week before Thanksgiving. I think that deserves taking a day off next week, right?
Humanity is backwards. We spend the prime of our lives chained to jobs that kill us inside, with maybe 2 days a week to live, only to get the chance to enjoy life once we’re old, broken and unable to do the things that once brought us joy.
Anyone have any good #book recommendations? I’m almost done with Wild Dark Shore and will need something new to plug into my Kindle
Since the week of Thanksgiving I have not worked a full 5 day work week, which means this week is going to suuuuuuuck
The first photo I took in 2026 #photography
Think I’ve had enough of the toxic atmosphere on the other app. Time to focus my ramblings here. Anyone have any recommendations who to follow for #books #photography #music?
Honest question - can the WNBA operate on only 50% of league income? I don’t know what arena rentals go for, and what insurances, or other costs the teams have to pay. The NBA brings in approx 14 billion, the WNBA approx 200 million (per Google)
Saturday mornings sunrise was great. Made getting up at 4, driving to Maine and getting back home again all before 8am worth it.
Somedays instead of putting on pants and being an adult, I’d rather just watch Tremors.
I’ve always “joked” that my retirement plan is a massive coronary. But after giving it further thought, I need to get a better retirement plan. Not because I think I’ll ever retire, but if I did die at work, I sure as fuck don’t want to spend the afterlife haunting this place…
I logged onto a website for work and was asked via a pop-up “Do you accept all cookies?”
Well dear website, I’m a fucking fat guy, of course I will gladly accept all cookies…
I mean, I guess I could always start a side hustle where I tell random people things that others don’t want to say themselves. Because it would be a lot less awkward coming from a 6’4” bearded and tattooed guy than you….right?
Sorry to anyone who follows me here and expects me to actually post things. Lately social media has just been exhausting (I mean, life in general is, but you get what I mean) Eventually I’ll return to my witty and humorous pearls of wisdom. Until then, heres a picture of an ice fishing hut at sunset
Thanks
