“After Being Wined And Dined For Years — With One Of His Billionaire Patrons Buying His Mother’s

I have an enormous amount of ... Rage and frustration over the entire job search and career coach process I'm in the midst of after being laid off with a third child due in about ten days time.

Can someone just please validate that resumes, cover letters, building a personal fucking brand, polishing your LinkedIn ass dimensions and whatever other shit they ask is fucking performative peacocking to try and convince an algorithm and some rando whose preferences I don't actually know that I can do a task I am 100% capable of doing but I have to hope someone's dipwad familial connection hasn't already been promised the role and the job listing is not purely for legal reasons?

Like please tell me I'm mostly right and even if I'm not 100% correct, agree that the entire system sucks and my feelings ARE 100% understandable. Can anyone jump on that train for me?

I own and love this game already. Feels really close to the kind of concept that could be elevated to something else for Gamechanger or another show.

I’ve seen the shortened version of Cab Calloway’s St James Infirmary Blues from the Betty Boop Snow White 1933 cartoon on Tumblr a few times, thought you’d all like the full version.

Still my favorite card.

Need is and always has been the wrong metric.

We don't NEED movies or most any art at all. I forget which ancient Greek it was that settled on needing not even a cup to drink to from once he learned to use his hands. We NEED very little, and that's assuming the the need at all is to survive.

I want six+ more sequels to James Gunn's The Suicide Squad, and I'm interested in seeing one or two more of those holiday portals from The Nightmare Before Christmas, amongst other as yet non existent concepts from my own head or other stories. Obviously I don't NEED them, but if done well, it would be enormous fun and/ or satisfying, and that's what I want.

Today is my second week of being laid off. I probably have to make my older son- 4 - switch daycares. My younger son, 2, just started, and its just so expensive. The potential place is okay and less money, but he said on the way to see it that he likes his current school, and I almost broke into tears at that second. I don't want to switch schools/ care centers. I feel like everything I've done, to lead me to a moment that I'm so barely prepared for anything, having less than the minimum to keep everything running (I'm already falling behind every month on bills)... I've really failed here. My wife gives birth tomorrow to our third - a girl- after our first two were IVF boys, we are having a girl naturally (all of our embryos were boys). I should feel more blessed, but I just feel terrified.

I love my kids and my wife. I really hate myself right now. I hope I feel any better after I cry, because right now, I really need to.
