Wish I had originally went for a degree that had real value in this capitalist hell scape. Genuinely one of my biggest mistakes was going for something in the humanities. I'm paying for it in full

Trapped in a city where I can't get a job and no money to move we love it here. I won't be on the streets but with how things are looking I won't be able to continue my education or pay to keep the heat or lights on. I'm not sure what happens to a bank account when it hits negative.

Was rejected for a job I really wanted and would have been life changing. I would have moved and worked towards my education. Rented a car, bought a suit, toured facilities, just to get rejected. Maybe I should give up and break my sobriety. I can't get a job to save my life anyway

The employment security office in my city is like: "Looking for a job? Come to another city a 2 hour drive from where you live to maybe find work!"

Had a grocery store interview but the job I applied for does not exist (they were hiring for other positions)shame on me though because they did this to me before

I was registered in a college algebra class but I couldn't understand it. I need to invest in math tutoring so that I can build up my math fundamentals and get over my dyscalculia. I'll need to get better at math for my degree and I'm upset with myself that I can't do it right now.

Since I haven't taken classes in years I decided to take a lower level chemistry class as well to give me a refresher on the subject so that I can do well with my next degree. I don't want these first classes to turn into a brick wall and prevent me from my goals

Got myself a new foreskin retainer kit. Hoping this one helps boost my progress and gets me over the hump. #Retainer #foreskin #mentalhealth #menshealth #sexualwellness

California is later in my future. Everyone who lives in California mentions it on their social media as if they are gloating. They all seem to be having a happy life. It's my turn

I decided to apply for a school this fall and sent over some documents. My application is pending. I'm not going to get any financial support from family and I might not have a place to come back to but I'm excited to start a new life chapter. I hope I can work something out financially and get work

I'm going to have to start over again since I'm going for another bachelor's degree but I hope that it gives me the experience and qualifications necessary to do well in the criminology field. It's going to be a lot of work but if I put my mind to it I can get it done. I'm going out of state as well

I'm starting to look at and schedule appointments with forensic science colleges. I think my next step in life is to do graduate school. I'll have to go out of state and I don't have an undergraduate degree in science but if I have to put in all this extra work I might as well apply for the top ones

Maybe I'll experiment on Etsy and see if anyone is interested in my photography shots. I did some test prints and they ended up looking well just not sure how to translate that to a customer base. I don't know how to market it

I need to move somewhere warm because I don't have the motivation to get more photos in 12 degree weather. I had to reinstate my business after not knowing I had to file my annual report and to get it back it was almost 400 in fees. I haven't given up on it otherwise I'd just have said forget it

Asked myself again why I bookmarked thousands of accounts. Going through some of them just to see deleted Twitter users and users I'm not interested in following. I was really obsessed with furry content for a time

I'm thinking about going into forensic science. I want to be a crime scene photographer. I'm not having any luck getting into the tech industry so I think that might be the next thing but then I might have to go back to college for that specifically. Criminology degree won't be enough I don't think

I got a summer camp paid internship in a different state with some pros and cons, they mislead the pay. I accepted the contract just in case nothing else better comes up. I did the math and it pays a little over 5 an hour. Long days and no screens. It would put my life on pause but I need the money

Genuinely getting too old for these low ball offers. Tried playing the lottery last night but because of my address change I couldn't. Spent my security deposit on bills when I really need a new phone

I updated my fursona colors by color matching my original design with my new monitor so now it should be more accurate to what I had in mind when first making myself. It took me a really long time but I'm satisfied with the results

I learned a few things moving again after renting a truck. Never move in the winter, never move into a HOA, never move somewhere without accessible parking, hire movers instead of doing it yourself. Return the rental furniture pads as well or get charged extra

nobody tells you when you are a kid or teen that choosing the wrong career path can set you back financially for years if not decades, at this age I should have "made it" but that is not the reality

I've been watching hunterxhunter and some of the chimera ant designs are nice even if it's technically not a furry race. Sign me up make me into a hot ant creature. Strong and with the ability to fly? Yes please

Statistically shark furries are making disproportionately low wages because a lot of them happen to be lifeguards and lifeguards do not make a lot of money. They are also a seasonal position so we can imply that they are unemployed the majority of the year
