Hey babe wake up, the new psoul account just dropped: @psoul.
I decided to move my #pixelfed account there as I just want push notifications for my posts, which Ivory will enable but couldn't get to work in Vernissage. I also hope the art will be more aligned with what I'm interested in: drawing, painitng, sci-fi, fantasy, photoshop, illustration, illustration, 3D modeling etc. My feel is that pixelfed, at least pixelfed.social, is very photography focused.
I’m looking at the #aurora intensity forecast and I think I missed the boat; last night was the night.
I’m missing out on 2024: no eclipse, no aurora. Lock me in a cave at this point.
@cynthiarose I’m refreshing the NOAA website every 5 minutes now thay the sun has set. I’m ready to bike up a hill.
We’re still out of the forecast zone…
They do mention though that “[During other G5 storms] aurora has been seen as low as Florida and southern Texas (typically 40° geomagnetic lat.).” #aurora#SanFrancisco
I was back at my first job at iRobot. Some manager I currently follow on linked in last night had re-hired me.
I was excited to just make money again.
Howerver, I didn’t go to work on my second day because of burnout/depression.
I didn’t go to work on my third day because of the anxiety caused by not letting my employer know what was going on.
On the 4th day I went to work. They mocked my apology when I finally talked to them. While I was gone, manager and his friend coworker stormed the corporate housing I was staying at and put all my stuff on the street. They kicked me out and kept mocking me…
Side note: my friend who is getting a degree in writing warned me that dreams do not follow narrative structure and usually make for a bad story as they only make sense to the dreamer. #writing
But back to the main topic: poor mental health can be absolutely paralyzing. I could totally see myself beeing frozen at the idea of missing work and scolding myself for omitting to warn my employer, putting even more pressure on myself (“I’m a failure”), making myself even more paralyzed, skiping even more work…
I am getting anxiety just writing about this FICTIONAL situation.
And for today: unplug your laptop.
This incoming geomagnetic storm my disrupt electricity transmission. It would be a shame to run out of battery when there is now power
Me to my illustration professor today :
« It doesn’t matter if you give us two extra days for the assignment. We are artists, we all have ADHD. We can only work under pressure. We’ll do it at the last minute »
WOW! just perused the image gallery for the #MetGala over at Harper's Bazaar and it's not only super-uninspiring, but for maybe a couple of people who understood the assignment. it's the beauty aesthetics of most of the people attending that is very late-stage capitalism with a bad take on trans-humanism. the 1% and their millionaire lackeys are really into that waxy Real Doll skin aesthetics. baffling.
