  all jobs have ups and downs. Considering “reste” periods (unemployment), $24/hr is probably more than I made from that commercial.

  tbf being an actor, especially in film, is fucking terrible at times.

  I shot a car commercial years ago. Getting up at 4am to get to set for 4.30 to stand in one spot say “¡Vamos!” in heavy makeup repeatedly for 15 hours 3 days in a row becomes torturous.

  I built an API connector for work (I’m a hobbyist, not a pro) to download what is the most common cargo transported by trucking companies from the DoT database. Everyone complained because they had to enter the company names correctly into a CSV as it wouldn’t accept typos or do fuzzy matching, nor could it automatically determine which was the head office of a company, only return a list of all of the companies.

  I did. Luckily there were points where it was shit enough to be able to leave without looking back.

  I beat The Black Heart, Atheon, Crota, Oryx, Siva, Xol, Ghaul, Calus, Riven, Nezerac, Savathun, and The Witness, plus AlakHul, Atraks, Sepiks, Taniks, the Forsaken Baron, a bunch of Vex Gatelords and Overminds… I rediscovered Dark Subclasses, I became an Iron Lord, a Dregden and went to Osiris’ Lighthouse in D1 and D2, healed the Traveller (twice), I witnessed my own funeral in the Corridors of Time, bringing back Saint 14, I saved and killed Rasputin and Prince/Crow and I communed with The Long Boi In The Soup. I saw the whole story through. Anything that happens now is of lesser concern, so I can leave.

  Therapy isn’t a single sentence, and we talked over these things for weeks for me to get to this place. It also had to come from me, one thing I talked about is that dwelling on misery/mistakes is, for me anyway, a guilty pleasure and a little addictive, so I had to be truly sick of living that way and genuinely want the change in my heart of hearts.

  it’s a good time for them, dispassionately speaking- Ocean freight is down, meaning you’re looking for nearshoring (Mexico and Canadian cross border freight), meaning you want more over the road shipping across large land masses than shipping to a port.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Perplexity CEO says its browser will track everything users do online to sell 'hyper personalized' ads⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  ad tracking is only as personalized as the company running the ads

  If I’m advertising fake nails, it’s personalized if you like fake nails and I advertise to fake nail fans, but if I advertise to all femme people - then it’s no longer personalized, and advertisers tend to do the latter.
