that’s the stuff. i’m a toy camera guy now

underexposed looking, blue-leaning photo of rolling mountains with clouds obscuring the top

the same mountains and hills above a field, with a white and yellow pavilion tent on the right side and a mound in the ground with a white cross on it on the left third of the image. whole image is kind of at an angle which i could have fixed but didn't

just saw someone pull this sweet left-turn-from-the-right-lane (which is also kind of a parking lane) move on a red light

screenshot of an intersection on a map, with crude overlaid phone drawing. it's a multidirectional four way intersection that turns into a westbound one-way on the western corner but is otherwise east/west on the eastern side. imagine four southbound cars in the left lane from their perspective, a single car in the right lane next to them that turns left in front of everybody else, crosses two lanes of traffic, to go southeast

"just like the rage virus in a zombie movie or something" is how kevin brown described the shirtless dude squad growing to 3 sections

shitty photo of a tv with a nintendo switch inconveniently placed in front or it. on the tv is a good one hundred almost exclusively white men, all shirtless, waving their shirts over their heads at the rays / orioles game at tampa

top comment on this is a guy zooming in on the photo and sharing that OP's tires are from 2018 and the whole way down it's dozens of comments clowning on this poor soul. someone said their treads looked like grill marks. OP hasn't replied to anyone

reddit screenshot on r/baltimore. u/kprocessing writes "thanks northern parkway" and shared a photo of a bald, like so bald, tire on a toyota that's been shredded to hell. sidewall tears all the way around, totally blown out, there are no treads left on the tire. 237 upvotes 88 comments

our work scheduling app is doing small business award wrapped type things and apparently we won one, for inexplicable reasons, and i have learned something terrible

A spotify wrapped style image from homebase. a purple background with white text and then a pink to yellow gradient that reads YOUR WORKPLACE PERSONA IS:

"50 consecutive weeks worked. One after another, you just keep it going, like clockwork."

phone died at a friend's house last night and i didn't charge it until this afternoon but it was up to some lorenz activity in purgatory or something

iphone screen time showing 14 hours and 32 minutes of constant phone use, from midnight all the way to 9 am, with a weird void around 9 or 10 where nothing happens, and then three more hours of constant use. it's pretty much all in the Messages app

i applaud him for having clearly justifiable reasons for each and every pick, says a little something about every movie, and then at some point just goes “raging bull in 4k?? can’t say no to that” basically and shoves it into his bag

oscar isaac sitting on the ground or a stool or something in the criterion closet, his arms wrapped around a lumpy tote bag stuffed with movies. there’s a sort of crazed glee with a lil touch of bashfulness in his eyes and smile

baltimore oriole samuel basallo facing the camera, lifting his left arm up to smack adley rutschman on the ass as he walks by, after a 5-3 win against the astros. basallo is looking down. he’s got his eyes on the prize

basallo twisting his body towards adley rutschman for the butt slap that is about to come

basallo’s hand squarely on the center of adley’s ass, they are now both back turned to the camera going back to the dugout

a heather grey t shirt with RED SOX VS ORIOLES on it with illustrations of a cooked lobster holding a bat and wearing a batting helmet, and a cooked crab (but it's orange) in an orioles ball cap, holding a baseball in one of its claws. it says BOSTON BALTIMORE on the bottom next to the red sox and orioles logos

what on earth do i have to lose by asking why they can’t send an accurate email about my chances to do operations at the library, i guess

Good afternoon, Thanks for the message! The language of this email is for a candidate who interviewed and did not proceed, but I hadn't had the opportunity to interview with you. Given the job title wasn't populated by the workday form ("the [not available] employment opportunity"), and I seem to have received boilerplate language that doesn't apply to my situation, I was wondering if my
application has been rejected, and if that's for lack of qualifications or that you have already indeed chosen a candidate before the closure of the listing.
I appreciate any information you may have, and thanks for your time.
Warmly,

ennui matisse@curses· Apr 27

rejected within one business day for a job i didnt interview for, actually, and the boilerplate text is written like a linkedin guy did it

We sincerely thank you for taking the time to apply and meet with our team about the [not available] employment opportunity.
We enjoyed learning more about your past achievements as well as your skills and qualifications.
We interviewed several candidates for the position, and we have decided to offer another applicant the position.
Thank you for your interest in joining The City of Baltimore and taking the time to meet our interview team.
If you qualify in the future, please feel free to apply for other open positions with the City of Baltimore.
We wish you the best of luck with your job search. Once again, thank you for your interest in The City of Baltimore.

average me and my partner moment

text from me, today 4:36 pm with a sticker of a black cat peering from the bottom corner: The less you eat, drink and read books; the less you go to the theatre, the dance hall, the public house; the less you think, love, theorize, sing, paint, fence, etc., the more you save-the greater becomes your treasure which neither moths nor dust will devour-your capital. The less you are, the more you have; the less you express your own life, the greater is your alienated life-the greater is the store of your estranged being.

my partner: thank you freddie and karl
me: that's right. enjoy your book.
