work, positive
getting out of my current job!! leaving it!! it got pretty toxic and I decided "I would literally be better off taking a pay cut and working for a coffee shop" so that's what I'm doing.
Only a couple days until I get to leave the Office Job Lifestyle behind me.
Think I'll spend the window between when this job ends and the next one starts just making music
money, work
working in an office pros:
- excuse to use org-mode and mu4e, because I have so many things I need to keep track of and have a backlog of email from the time before I was hired
- have enough money to make sure I meet rent and eat food
working in an office cons:
- so many things I need to keep track of and such a backlog of email from the time before I was hired that it makes actual sense for me to be using org-mode and mu4e
- very easy to run out of steam by the time I get home
mh, ADHD medicine
I tried a different ADHD medicine for the past month or so, and it had less immediately noticeable side effects, but the side effects it had were to do with memory so I've switched back.
It was also not doing anywhere near as good a job treating me, so coming back to mixed amphetamine salts has kicked me back into gear.
We'll see if the slightly different dosing regimen fixes my primary concerns or if I need to try another drug in a month or so 😅
Servicetoot 2: you're not paranoid if they're really after you edition
build tamper detection into your devices. full disk encryption is worthless if it's possible to take a ramdump. if your pc case is opened up it should shut down immediately, ideally by *physically disconnecting power*
have backups of your password manager. one remote server is not good enough.
have a panic button type thing in place that powers off your devices, and ideally wipes your phone
please add to this.
and it's not like I did something that *should* have led to that, it just happened when I did like the wrong audio thing for my computer's taste
mh, positive, doctors, medication
I guess what I'm saying is it's just wild to be excited about a diagnosis. I haven't felt like this since my gender dysphoria diagnosis, which made me so happy I think I cried about it (not that I think gender is anywhere near as much of a medical thing, just that it gave me access to medical means of transition)
mh, positive, doctors, medication
I've felt for a very long time that there's a disjunction between my ability to do tasks and my ability to *finish* them, and hopefully that will gete better.
I'm sappho! Genderqueer lesbian. they/she. EN/FR/ZH OK (I'm best at english but like speaking other languages, too)
Opera singer, linguist, pianist, and conductor, in order of skill.
I like bicycles, linux, and invertebrates.
