Cake day: January 28th, 2022

  • The manager if one of my jobs is on vacation and because that leaves me, another person, and three new hires (one of which hasn’t been showing up for her correct shifts), I’m scheduled to work every single day until my last day (Thursday). I had to go directly from that job to my other job today. I’m dying inside.




  • I have looked at Anki before and I am familiar with it. I have a few decks on there, one for German via Nicos Weg and another for Japanese Kanji Radicals via Wanikani (I think that’s what it’s called). I suppose re “fringe” languages, it’s only as good as the decks, and there might be some out there for them.

    Anyway, I feel like Anki alone isn’t enough for me. I can sometimes get a little demotivated to study for a day or two and then I’m set back in my studies (or at least I feel that way).



  • I’ve been trying to ditch my shitty cafe job for a less shitty cafe job somewhere else. And my current job wants to promote me to shift lead (even though they know I’m applying to various places). But in any case, I live in an at-will state, so I really don’t have any requirement to stay on if they promote me, and if I do get a better job I still intend on giving a notice to my current one.

    Outside of that I think I’m doing just okay.


  • Potentially for my next device, I’ll look for it (and I’ll keep my eyes peeled for builds for my current device in the meantime). I already have this one so with diminishing returns, I’m gonna use the phone I have with the stock OS if that’s what I have to use (with as much de-googling and privacy-mindful configuration as possible). Potentially when I do get a new device, I might end up working on a build for the one I currently have.

    But yeah, I’m not presently in the market for a new phone and I needed a cheap one quickly when I bought this one as at the time I was transitioning out of a phone my roommate had lent me at the time. It works and I’m trying to learn as much as I can about privacy-proofing this thing as much as is feasible.
