    i unironically really really want to work, i fucking hate not having money and relying on the doordash algorithm for hours, i mean i'm broke all this week because of a single fraudulent charge to my bank for fucks sake, and my parents constantly are passive aggressively telling me to get a 'real' job, turning evey single conversation i have with them to that topic, but nobody wants to hire a 30 year old college graduate with history and philosophy degrees for any of the available (i.e. retail or food service) jobs. they all want teenagers and the elderly that they can manipulate easily. any field my degrees are relevant in basically requires a teaching degree or a doctorate to get work so i'm basically fucked and never going to be able to get a stable job, but at least i have no student debt. my retirement plan is to die bravely in the water wars of the 2030's

      yeah i'd love to have regular hours but all the "normal" jobs are ableist as fuck and require knowing a bunch of awful people to get in, or destroy my body/will to live.
