It seems like its been a fucking time for more than just me, so doing another check-in thread to see how yall are holding up. Especially since its been a LONG time since ive done one of these.

Got something you wanna vent about? Wanna share something cool? Nows the time!

Love you all Care-Comrade

For my own part - back from tour. The band made money, but I am broke. Fortunately, starting my first job in 2 years on Monday, and whats more, ITS FUCKING COOL! Finally out of the tech field, and working thru Americorps to help with a local anti-homelessness organization. Im gonna be doing back end stuff interfacing with other local orgs, but its still a job im happy to have and can be personally proud of rather than working with stupid bullshit SAAS stuff. Met a hexbear on tour and had a great time with them, and after 3 floods in a week, my partner and I are moved into a new apartment and finishing unpacking. This time were on the 4th floor! Nice building, no complaints, place is modern looking and very clean, it just feels surreal after everything that brought us here.

    Congrats on the tour and the job!

    Personally I’m hitting that mid 30s realization that I don’t really have many friends anymore and the ones I do have I’m not super close with entirely by my own actions/inactions. I’m not torn up about it, it’s just something I need to work on as a person I guess.

      Same age, same boat. Ive got like 2 people in this city, and one of them is a local hexbear. That’s really it. Its…it is what it is. Sometimes it gets me down, sometimes ive found my peace with it.

          Yeah, I feel you. I kinda intentionally dropped my oldest friend not too long ago. There are more reasons why, but the last straw was him getting married after moving back to his childhood home, in the suburbs of my city, and not inviting me (I saw pics of other friends there). I didnt hear a single thing about it from him.
