Back again with these threads! For all the new folks, this is a safe space to tell us about anything cool you have going on, anything you want to vent about, and everything in between.

Remember, you are loved stalin-heart

Things have been up and down for me. In a glum mood today. Been hanging out with someone new, and that's been nice, I'm just not sure if I really want to keep it up. Home life is....fine, I guess. Still living with my ex, they're gonna give things until the end of the year to see if their career picks up any, and if not, they'll move home. That said, they've been talking about that for years, so I'll believe it when I see it. They broke down and finally yelled at me for the first time a few nights ago, so I silently carved a pumpkin and then just stayed over with the person I've been seeing. As nice as the couch I live on is, it was nice to sleep in a bed for a night or two this past week.

Job front is slow moving, but I had a promising interview last Wednesday. Was supposed to hear back Thurday afternoon or Friday, but even with a followup email I sent, no reply. Fingers crossed I guess.

I deleted a few of my dating apps, still have a small amount installed. A Maoist actually hollered at me this morning and wants to take me to an arcade. Not sure I have the energy though. Other people are asking me for dates, but I'm just...not replying. I should go do that now so I don't leave them hanging.

On a brighter note, 9 day tour coming up in 2 weeks, so that's cool! Without giving away too much (y'all know my band anyways and have seen my face), I'll be going around the midwest. We've been doing well on selling merch the past few months, so that money should be sufficient to cover the tour. Also, we'll have a roadie for the first time!

I'll end it here I guess. Hope all my comrades are well, and I love you! meow-hug

Kinda reeling from a couple things that happened over the past day that has me feeling a mixture of doomer thought and that sort of spite-like motivational anger. I kinda used the megas to vent a bit but I'm still feeling it and can't immediately do anything about either event so I've been blowing off steam in the meantime by blasting loud music and working on my platformer. It's working, so great strat on my part if I do say so myself!

Finally locked down an advisor on my third attempt. And apparently the project will hopefully move kind of quickly (relatively speaking) so I can get tf out of wretched academia

Will have to put my studies on hold to seek stationary treatment for my depression. Not like I managed much the last year anyway,better this way. I managed to get therapy, after a lot of effort from several people, but it is not helping, or at least I do not feel like I made any progress. It probably does not help that I can't arrange meetings, due to my depression.

Mostly good, but can't find the motivation to work on my studies as much as I should. Lots of stuff to do, kinda overwhelmed sometimes, stressing a bit about many things. But no major problem.
