After making the first thread last week, my dad went into the ER with kidney failure and internal bleeding on Friday night, so that was scary - ultimately, they were able to help his kidneys, and just found out some meds he's on for his foot were fucking with his guts, so he is now home and doing better with adjusted meds!

On top of that, had a final round interview for a new job on Tuesday morning. I took the day off for it so I could do that, then a buddy of mine who runs a local hot sauce company came out and listened to some records with me, and then I walked over to my drummer's apartment to work on a new EP. It was a lovely day!

Hope you're all well, sending love and solidarity!

    I might have a job in the new year and it sounds like something that would be at my speed. This way I can take care of myself and throw some cash at comrades who come into mutual aid or otherwise and need help.

    Semester's almost done, just got to start my last final exam in under an hour, and then when that's done, I'm done with school for like a month :comfy-cool:

    I'm starting work on my A+ certification soon. Should help me get a better paying technician job so my finances are not as stressed.

      Thanks! We've got our first house show (under this project name) coming up on Saturday so I'm jazzed on that, and while we need to redo the guitar tracks probably, the recording itself is coming out fantastically. Super thrilled. Will be posting it here when it's out!

    Thanks for this post! It's a good idea :)

    I'm making progress towards getting everything I need to apply for a passport! Also developing better habit (with the help of my girlfriend) prepping for medical stuff next year. Feeling pretty optimistic overall

              Cheers, appreciate that comrade! I'm super hopeful about that job since every single person I talked to in the process gushed over my resume, and it would really improve my material conditions. Enjoy the rest of your week, and have a good one! I'll be checking in on everyone again before the holidays next week, so I hope everyone here continues to have awesome news to share!
