turboskanker 2022-02-26 23:55:06 ET fucking jeez. after two years of endless personal life struggle and strain as a single parent going through covid-land after multiple years prior of custody battle (that i've mostly won) against my kid's insanely abusive mom who left me in emotional, financial, and pretty much every other type of ruin imaginable (only to be forced back to square one in that department thanks to this country's dumbass handling of 2020 and the subsequent years), i finally got my motherfucking WEBSITE fully updated (though it still needs to be mobile optimized, so please only gaze upon it from a laptop or desktop for now thanks.) it's been a month of crippling anxiety and struggle but i fucking got this shit done finally. and at least i live in the only city in this fucking country that isn't gonna let me be homeless, and pays for me to have a therapist. PLEASE GET ME A JOB THANKS.

Drake 2022-03-01 18:24:06 ET Your job is to get a job! :P

turboskanker 2022-03-01 19:08:05 ET if only life were that simple. especially in the creative industry. though i'm working on networking slowly. past few years have been a real... time. basically the only way i ever find good work is knowing someone who can just get my foot in the door to talk to a hiring manager - then i pretty much always get hired. but creative recruiters are, to be frank, fucking morons. so it's otherwise a tedious process unless i can find people who basically let me bypass those idiots. there's plenty of work out here though so.... it'll happen when it does. just trying to find more help as i go along. especially as i'm still a single parent in psychological and financial recovery mode. also i had a job in 2020 as a brand and media manager for a local nonprofit, but covid restrictions made sure to kill that real good and fast d-;

Drake 2022-03-03 17:58:24 ET Yeah, just teasing. It's tough right now.

You Dont Know Jake 2022-03-03 18:20:41 ET COVID really killed a lot of nonprofits. My veteran suicide non-profit had two major funders asking us to apply for their grants in 2020 so we could grow our operations. Then the 3 grants across both orgs got pulled, and the money completely re-purposed for COVID relief. I'm hoping that now that we can go back to being told to be scared of Russia, we can move passed being terrified of the virus.

turboskanker 2022-03-03 18:34:49 ET FFS yeah. the way the US handled this entire damn thing, especially economically, compared to the rest of the world, is like a sick joke.
