I am planning to move up north, so I am applying for jobs. I got turned down again today for maybe 5th of 6th time 😜. I was kinda upset since it was a good job (lawfirm-assistant) that I actually have both experience and an education in (family-law, that is). I used to work as an undertaker, and I loved that job! (Seriously). But then I remembered a song from the 'Avenue Q' musical and my frown turned to a smile. It sucks to be me :-)
Any attempt to use the new super glues results in the two pieces

Only five days left and then..... #vacation!!! 5 weeks, that is. I sometimes feel blessed living in this country.
Something I don't see a lot in analyses of The Matrix, and especially The Animatrix, is how thoroughly rooted in the web 1.0 era alienation and process of reaching out to others.
It's that time again! Pause for a moment and just breathe.
The minotaur seizes your old cloak of despair and limps into the distance.
The kind of game where you finally beat the boss and win the game but then a cow crushes the princess.
Social Media Day shouldn’t be a holiday.
What are we supposed to be celebrating anyway? The weaponization of our technology against us? The phenomenon of smartphone addiction? The degradation of our political discourse?
I’m good, thanks.
Being shittered = being shattered by the poop you've just made.

Before I use it and lose my cool.
When I smile tell me some bad news,
Before I laugh and act like a fool.
And if I swallow anything evil,
Put you finger down my throat.
And if I shiver please give me a blanket,
Keep me warm let me wear your coat
No one knows what it's like to be the bad man,
to be the sad man.
Behind blue eyes.
No one knows what its like to be hated,
to be fated,
To telling only lies.

Trying to sleep, but two drunk girls are talking very loudly just outside my window about Iceland and how the men there are "good looking" (I think they used the term "fuckable"), while my down-stairs neighbour keeps playing "Enjoy the silence" (oh, the irony)... #fml
Meet smudge.
Helsinki Pride seems to have had about 100 thousand people today.
Helsinki has about 500 thousand citizens.
Well, heck, I've found myself greeting people with "howdy" a bit lately and I might have legitimately picked that up from Alex Kamal in The Expanse.
Hrm.
Shower and be ready in an hour. You can do it! 😂. <<--- trying to give myself a peptalk and get away from my mobile 😜.
This little movie depicts more or less my entire childhood. Mom working late, me fixing dinner, doing homework in the kitchen, and being alone. I was raised by my single mother. My father worked in New Zeeland from when I was 8 , and moved back home when I was 15. Money was always an issue. Living on the edge of poverty isn't easy, but it has taught me to be humble, hold on tight to money and being generous towards people that really need it.
I love "Charlenes World". The latest video is a hoot! "My mornings are haunted with yesterdays regrets", "People say, 'Don't talk to me before my morning coffee. And I say, "Don't talk to me at all "...
