I traveled a lot, there were shops in NOLA, Iowa, and Houston I went back and forth between. The reps for the products knew me and could recommend me to the shops in whatever area I wanted to go. It was great there for awhile. I've been fully disabled since 2010 though, and at that point I was a manager, but still only made $10/hr. The cost of owning a frameshop and supplies makes it pretty hard to pay employees what they're worth, regardless of how the owners feel about you as an employee. If you want to get started in the industry though, I would ask around different shops and see who has time to train you. I ended up liking to work for The Great Frame Up brand bc their miter saw is German and much less likely to chop limbs off than the chop saw a lot of private owners use. One of my former bosses almost lost her arm that way.

Snack attack!
With taste buds apparently permanently ruined by long covid, texture and temperature rank a lot higher than they used to - I would try this

I absolutely loved when it came through my neighborhood in Madison County, they got treated to a full on country church picnic with homemade food and deserts 💜

Show me what slimed you.
Idk how to share a pic, but it's one of my cats glaring at me, so, pretty appropriate 😂

Is there a word or term for feeling completely repulsed by someone or something simply because of how much they're shoved in your face?
Reply in thread
Yeah, closest I'd heard before this is Oppositional Defiant Disorder, which always struck me as the most sane position to have considering what "they" were trying to shove down my throat

My goddaughter was going to be a Seven if she had been male, but she adopted the name as a teen anyways 😂🤷🏻♀️💜

What is your usual request when you're getting a haircut?
As short as possible while still looking good growing out so I don't have to come back for 2 years

You're coming over for a big potluck dinner, so whatcha bringing?
Pickle roll ups - get a full size pickle and wrap it with Buddig corned beef on the outside and cream cheese on the inside. Then slice it and they're cute and tasty 💜

Meditating one time got me back to the void I was in during part of my NDE - all other sounds turned to static then the silence that felt alive drowned out the static, it was wild

Are you doing something to fuck over "the powerful"? If so, what?
I'm loving those around me and feeling empathy for everyone on the planet even harder. They can throw me in a concentration camp or kill me, but they can't make me not love.

My mom died in November 2020 due to something like an upper respiratory infection. Antibiotics could have saved her, but she chose vitamins and colloidal silver. She'd been part of this christofascism cult since the 90s

But I do. And spending time doing that takes away from any time they'd rather have me panicking and spiraling.

Came across a “No network from this point on-please contact your loved ones to avoid worry”-sign when driving to Spiti valley, India. In fact there was no connection for the next 10 hours of driving.
Considerate of them, eh?
