Unfollowing. Feel free to do the same.

[flamingsword]

I’m going on a journal-cleaning spree. If we have not really interacted in the last six months, I am probably going to unsubscribe from following you. I don’t have enough spoons and free time to follow all the people I still kinda want to. I deeply resent having to prioritize some kinds of human connection below real world practical considerations, but … such is life. 😞

I also will possibly be on here less to keep up with things for the next month or two, so if you have my contact info and want me to see a post of yours, please send me a link? School is going to head back into kick-my-ass mode here in another week or two, and possibly stay there as things move from science-heavy to the business and legal classes I am required to take. 😞😞😞

I have a headache just thinking about it.

I recently did the same kind of thing, and found a few more interactive folks. I can hardly imagine going back to school and I hope it goes well for you. I considered grad school about 20 years ago, and decided to spend those funds on divorce lawyer instead. It was a better investment at the time.

Thank you for the well-wishes, and I hope that you get to go back to school after we throw the current regime out of office and re-establish some goddamn democratic social norms. *shakes fist at everyone involved in the erosion of global rules-based order*

I've basically gotten a part-time job similar to what a master's degree may have gotten me. And been hired specifically because I'm autistic. So I no longer want to go back to school. Got my name on a research paper without having to write it all :)

Cool! That sounds heckin’ awesome!

Thank you. I wish you strength, and honor to all whose goodness you rely on.

Thank you for the energy.

I haven't been terribly active for the last six months, though I've made a few more posts recently. Life has been hell. Do what you need to.

[flamingsword]

I'm going to unsubscribe for now, but I have it in my calendar to check back in in mid-December, when I should, the small gods willing, be done with school and past that mess. When my life should return to it's regular mess. ':D

Luck to both of us in these trying times.

[havocthecat]

I hope so! I do think you deserve to be past at least some mess.

[dewline]

Understood.

My situation is...unclear at the moment, and I haven't exactly been reaching out to people here lately. Housing, health of relatives, job search, hobby projects...

[flamingsword]

Yeah, same, though for different stressors. I can try checking back in at the six month mark, if you’d like?

[dewline]

Six months seems a good choice, yeah...

Thank you.

Good luck with school stuff. Yours is heading back into busy time just as Mouse finishes for the summer, but business and legal sound as much my bag as the very very advanced maths he keeps showing me, so you have my sympathy. (Maths, I’m fine at, but I gave it up at 15; I’m not uni degree level maths capable!)
