Well here we are again. Me trying to get through my weird occasional social media thanks. Still looking for a job. Still counting my blessings. Still here. Still Quentin the cat’s person and that’s the most important thing.

This just in: Golden Girls special on Hulu on 11/11!

OK, so you know my help post that I seem to have messed up because I don’t understand how bluesky works? EDIT: Small problem with my checking account, so I’m updating to remove Zelle for now.

Hi, Bluesky friends! 🩵👋 I’ve been off this app for months after a job loss and some annoying financial struggles like possible eviction 😱 Sharing a screenshot of my Threads post if you’d like to share. If I haven’t followed you back yet, I will!
Happy Mercury Retrograde to you and yours! ☕✨

Yo yo yo yo. It’s been 4 mos since I’ve posted. I’m still in a weird mental place and life hasn’t changed that much. Still unemployed, fearing eviction, trying to get to whatever the next chapter. But also, love you and still here for you guys. and love and hugs ❤️ Tax: old man kitten Quentin.

Oh, social media. I remain not very good at you. I’ll try to do better. And how are you? This is the pool where I grew up, thanks to my stepfather‘s family, and now I live half a mile away ☀️

I spent most of yesterday thinking I was targeted and fired and maybe I was but I was not alone. There were 130 of us that were booted from our former company yesterday and they have also asked for people to voluntarily resign.

Thank you!

Hello everyone. So I’ve had a day. I just got fired. Any vibes or connections or leads or memes appreciated

Ooo subscribing

And by “just seeing it now,” I mean, I just I’m hearing Keith Olbermann’s bulletin podcast about it and finally opened blue sky to check what has been happening today, while I have been hiding. Damn.

I haven’t been listening to podcasts or checking blue sky because I thought I needed a break so I am just now seeing the news about MSNBC. What in the goddamn hell?

Quentin is very concerned about Jason on General Hospital.

Thank you for the add!

If you guys need self-care tips for getting through this current constitutional crisis, I highly recommend riffing any of the four remaining soap operas. It’s really fun. A good escape. If possible watch with your best friend, in my case, a 16-year-old fluffy cat, next to you ❤️

And take it easy after the shingles vaccine. I was faint and fell, and broke my right foot.

I got mine last Thursday since I was off from work. I think I just had them in October or November but I panicked at the prospect of never getting them again.

Listen to the historians.
