I still haven't built up to it lol. I got into more of a spin than I thought I would lol

I'm going to sleep for a week and hope for a more positive mindset when I wake up

Spider-Man pointing meme because we both got fired today lol

I tempted fate too much by getting a mortgage last year. This is soo fun.

I'm gonna give myself the weekend to eat my feelings and hang out with friends in meat space, and get together with my delightful talented ex-coworkers to commiserate and scream.

I'll worry about next steps on Monday, I guess

Dude what if the only jobs I get interviews for want me to use the word burglary machine?

I like being an AI free developer but are hiring managers still looking for those?

Normal industry.

Mighty Build and Test is being shut down by keywords and with it goes my employment.

We all worked really hard to make something really cool and really special and it's mind-blowing to me that its value wasn't immediately obvious to the higher-ups.

More details to come, but fuck man, this blows

I've had this journal since i fractured my vertebra a few years ago but didn't keep up the habit. I started again this year and i'm grateful that I get to include life beyond all the stuff I was so worried about at the time

I'm loving journaling as a regular practice. Instead of my old method of writing an entry every six months when I'm feeling particularly heightened levels of angst – I'm including good stuff and mundane stuff. It makes rereading so much more informative because of the surrounding context!

trying to figure out the context of everyone just saying "he sharted on TV" a few days ago without having my coffee first was, uh, an experience

sorry for being cringe I'm trying to enjoy being alive
