I'm back, I'm in pain and I'm fine

Yeah, folks, been having a rough patch in life lately. Times likes these stubbornly require all your attention and resources. Drain you out to the last bit. Don't think about anything, just survive, get through it. Wait for better times to come. You know how it's like. I'm not going to make it into a life lesson, " oh, yeah, it's bad but it's a good thing because it taught me something ". Nah.…

Job, life and Witcher

Just a quick note on recent events and thoughts. I had to take some time off to, well, do adult stuff my age and social status requires me to do. If you are familiar with my previous rants, you already know I'm currently busy hunting jobs. Though, the way I do it, it's more of a gathering process. In short: I have some positive progress in my employment status and things seem to be sorting out.…

Bolt ID: 006

Just leaving it here since it doesn't fit any other category. Long story short: I wanted to add this meme to my last rant post but reconsidered the last minute because decided it will look better as a button. Spoiler alert: it doesn't (not in my hands, at least) But it still was fun to try something new 🪚🤠

It's funny how you have to use a burnout to do stuff

It's just a rant Besides the existential crisis I've written about previously, currently I'm unemployed and struggle to find a place to work due to burnout. I can only take up to 30 h/week at its best while it not being a luxury I can afford financially. And it's actually very peculiar because I have no problem dedicating a whole day to a single task. If I have a personal project to work on, I…

AI burger. How to explain the difference

A short illustration of how to explain someone why AI output can't replace human creation. Burger Blobger 5.5 As you can see, they both look exactly the same. They both taste exactly the same. The only difference — the former is made of nutritious matter and the latter is made of regurgitated paper. You eat the first — you live, you eat the last — you die. You die slowly and painfully, not…

I have a confession. Existential crisis edition

I'm in a state of perpetual existential crisis. Primarily because I like a lot of things. Secondly, because each of these things gets ruined in no time after my discovery of it. I've mentioned in one of my posts earlier I work in SEO field. Eeeeww , I know, but I like it. I have an akctual passion for excels, tables, charts, sorting and stuff like that — all of this while, ironically, not being…

So I'm writing anyway

I'm noticing some kind of writing anxiety. I'm still experimenting and testing what and how I want to write about and struggling to find a proper balance between what's in my head and what's "on paper". I want it to be genuine but I also understand people don't have context , so things may come across the wrong way. Providing the right amount of context is what triggers the stalling. I think it's…
