"I was like oh hell no this other girl had a good question suggestion I'm just going to write it down and submit it."
Work, capitalist bs, caps lock, profanity
So I had volunteered to be a "buddy" for new joiners in my program, since I thought, "sure, how hard can emailing a person every so often be?"
Hoo boy, good thing I had already decided not to follow through due to spoons problems. In the "mentor guide", I was explicitly directed to speak positively about the company, and not to answer any compensation questions. WHAT UTTER FUCKING BULLSHIT
Fediverse surveillance instance: Fedichive
There is a new instance¹ that tries to archive the whole Fediverse² and they plan to make a full text search available to everyone. I recommend you block their IPs.
What they are doing is illegal by the way, at least when it concerns EU citizens.

Mh (-), work
Sigh I started this morning off reasonably ok, but am now seriously overstimmed (wtf brain?) and fighting a strong anxiety reaction to it. Can't concentrate, clothes are making my hair stand on end, all noises are making me want to cover my ears and scream.
I think I should bare minimum go home, maybe take the rest of the day off. Work is in a good space, I'm working on documentation stuff. But I don't want to disappoint my boss/am not in the best standing with my company. What do?
