The staff at the RRC have apparently finally realized I'm here after almost a month as one of them just did my first 2 intakes that were supposed to have been done when I first arrived and another set up a meeting to refer me to a skills/works program :| Again these are the upstanding successful citizens of my society that I'm supposed to strive to be like.
Still doing linkedin learning classes. Done like 20 so far :| guy emailed me about a couple jobs at Boeing so we'll see how that goes... All my cheap crap I ordered from "Temu" showed up today, I'm actually really amazed/impressed by the quality for like $2 items... I have a smart watch now that does everything a fitbit does plus like 5 other things and cost $7.68. I ordered $37.58 in crap from them and the only complaint I have on anything is the belt they sent me despite being way way nicer than I expected it to be does not actually fit... it is an automatic buckle one but the band on the leather that clicks through the buckle runs out of clicks like a half inch too soon for it to be cinched tight. Probably work fine if I had shirts tucked in and such but won't work normally. Might be able to take the buckle off and cut it to size so it works which is fine if I can do that but shouldn't need to when they list and sell them by size not as one size fits all etc... Definitely no objection to ordering from them again currently though based on the quality of the items, not saying I would trust them with something health and safety related or a surge protector to use with expensive electronics or anything but for general stuff that there is no risk if it fails the stuff I ordered all looks good and is of surprising quality for the price so far.
In the year of 2021 Gregory House goes viral on TikTok. It's a shitty, bad angled shacking recording, and there's background laughter of another man, but you can clearly hear the angry, ruthless, nasty mocking of every dumb anti-vaxxer under the sun, done by an unshaven old man, glaring into the camera with loathing.
And that's how Cameron, Chase, Park, Addams, Taub, and many more other former colleagues find out that evil bastard who used to terrorise them at work and then died in a fire, is still alive and kicking.
Not to sound like a hipster (I am), but if you, like me, are sick of being spoonfed algorithmic music a la spotify/youtube, may I suggest: the radio. I've been listening to a lot of KEXP lately and it's been genuinely refreshing
I'm still bitter my aunt/cousin/whatever she is sold the family creek properties (for over double what her mom had offered to sell it to me for - not that I could afford it either way) because no one gave her "gRaNdbAbiEs". The plus side is the great pacific conservatory is buying all the land there so in less than 5 years I'll probably be able to go back anyways!
