i am now remembering why i put down knitting and took up cross stitch & embroidery in grad school (besides my irritation with stitch tension)
THE RSI FLARE UPS
ive cast on for a gauge piece and my hands already hurt. ALOT. wtf.
this doesn’t happen when i embroider because i have a hoop stand and am generally only using my dominant (non rsi) hand. and i have an ergo set up for video games. im either gonna have to teach myself continental (the picking stitch method maybe will put less stress on my left hand?) or im going to have to switch entirely to crochet which, for whatever reason, puts less strain and tension on my hands

slightly different route:
the legendary one cycle sprint to ascension! route suggested by @sevenrs which i decided to try. the route is honestly pretty similar to what i was doing before, with a few minor tweaks that ended up making it faster than my original route.
as you can see from the score screen though, it's not actually 'one' cycle; i starved twice to bring my karma up so i could go to pebbles. but the game doesn't know any better :) tbh this was pretty fun, particularly because i'm more familiar with the route now. if you're okay with navigating drainage system and filtration system in the dark, you can give it a whirl!

The IT guy from my previous job messaged me out of nowhere and is asking me to apply. Yay.
But even if I apply and get accepted it’s still up to my complete asshole of a boss to approve me leaving before June. I don’t trust her. Not yay.

i’ve got an old friend i haven’t spoken to properly in a few months (this is normal, she lives in the netherlands) and i just saw she’s following one of those ‘old money aesthetic’ pages on instagram that posts photos of exclusively rich white people (and rich, hot boys) in their fancy houses. is she joking
