Being real for a moment, I really need to find some way to make more money. But everything I’ve ever attempted to that end has largely foundered, absolutely no-one has ever even considered hiring me, and this year so far is looking to be especially rough economically. There’s just nothing I can do.
No job offers or listings, no jobs I could even reasonably do with everything I deal with on a daily basis, and I’ve never had a single idea that made what anyone would optimistically describe as “real money”. The last few months it feels like I can’t even get funds together for medication, let alone cover all my bills. Maybe it was over-optimistic to launch the bucket list campaign, but I really felt like I was going to need something to feel positive about this year and boy a month & a half in is really proving me right.
I get that basically everyone is in that boat right now but this has been the situation for me for basically a decade. I did okay for a bit but then economic aid got harshly curtailed and I’ve never gotten anything to work to cover the difference. The occasional commission piece just isn’t enough.
Iunno, I’m just staring at accounts perpetually in the red costing me even more money in overdraft fees (because heck the poor apparently) and seeing two weeks to a benefit payment to a paycheque to a benefit payment and it just never seems to be enough no matter what I cut back on or reorganise. It’s never been great but it feels like this year in particular is gunning to total me outright.
Here’s my KoFi. I’m going to bed before I get more doom-spiral-y.
