It's a church non-profit classified as a "retail" thrift store.

Meant to aid the homeless and needy.

Here in Virginia, I needed it.

I certainly needed the income because my funds or money have dried up or almost have.

But goddamn, tomorrow's the first day.

It's a small building and it's pretty homely from what I've seen of it.

Commute is 30 minutes long, but I'm transferring to another area that's about 10 to 15 minutes away in a month or two.

I'm on a probationary period as a full-time worker for three months so my job seems safe for the time being.

But I have to do cashier-work, pricing and stocking, and lift to about 50 lbs., among other retail work.

Honestly? Nobody ever had me do cashier-work before in all the time I've worked retail before. Is there a video or source online that walks you step-by-step on how to do it? And what about pricing and stocking items?

Usually, I did backroom work before and even that I found a bit hard.

I get paid $13.00, which is more than I received before.

They said it would be busy now.

I'm sure I can do it... but goddamn, I'm nervous...

Ocarina of Time remake incoming (and probably by extension a Majora's Mask remake).

They're probably going to somehow tie it to BOTW and TOTK by retconing some stuff. Nobody @ me, but I totally see that happening. Rauru will transform into his TOTK self in the Temple of Light, if they decide to put that scrapped temple in there.

Your thoughts?

Well, that's what I think, anyway.

But yes, Nintendo is teasing a Zelda / LEGO collaboration and I suspect that this is just part of a marketing campaign for the new rumored (but not confirmed!) Ocarina of Time remake.

Oh God

Just make a The Legend of Zelda game that's a sequel to both Ocarina of Time and Majora's Mask, Nintendo! Do it, you cowards!

Your thoughts?

Ugh, I wish I could make a list of my sensory stims or the stimuli that gets me going, but it's so hyper-specific and doesn't seem to be able to be done on a whim.

Certain sounds are heard and then never heard again.

It is what it is.

Do you all have stims that you can do on a whim or listen to on repeat?

No clear morality too.

Even the bad guys are stand-ins now for "losers" of society and usually their backstory is that they were someone "down on their luck" and rejected by society and I guess that makes them evil later on.

I realize that I have dark thoughts or pessimistic or cynical attitudes at time, maybe to an extreme degree in some instances.

I need something with more hope and less "moral greyness" at this point; it just seems that it's clouding my mind and I'm trying to recover from a depression and disthymia.

Another Astrum, another banger.

What to you think? Could we find another Earth-like planet within our lifetime? Or any life later at all? Maybe with in a far-off exoplanet or even within the Sol System (out solar system)? Well, we can only hope. I certainly have a feeling that we may.

Good ole' Turkey.

We've long been anti-Zionist, even if the government or AKP isn't.

Yes, but then we'd never hear the end of "Chinese influence" on the news

I don't care if they're pro-Russian or not and don't expect them to be.

They're what the Georgian people chose and democracy is under threat in Georgia.

Well, I'm for a democracy, just not Western liberal democracy.

It's bourgeois democracy at best and fascism at worst.

Translated into English through Google:


The video app TikTok is full of pictures of young Russians who tell of their lives. Freshly renovated apartment blocks with kindergartens, full supermarkets and busy streets design an image of comfortable normality.

The influencers are happy to show how local companies have replaced McDonald’s and Coca-Cola with at least equivalent offers. The subliminal message of the propaganda videos: Western sanctions cannot harm Russia.

A platform of several economic research institutes funded by the Federal Ministry of Economics now supports this message with data. It proves how the Russian economy is booming in the midst of Ukraine war.

While China, India, and Turkey have not quite offset the elimination of foreign trade with Europe, rising domestic demand is leading to a real job miracle. The Federal Government could make the Federal Government envious of upgrades-driven economic growth and low public debt.

The European hope from the first day after the attack on the neighbouring country to force Russia quickly to return with economic sanctions has not been fulfilled. The Russian citizens do not rebel simply because they lack Nescafé and Heineken. Payments and banks have not collapsed. The Russian state can easily pay pensions, wages and benefits.

This shows that in a multipolar world, the West has lost global economic power. Russia is finding new trading partners – also for oil and gas, the foreign exchange providers. Unlike other rogue states, the country has a historically grown full-fledged arms industry. Display

And Putin has even succeeded in stabilising the fluctuating order and eliminating opponents such as mercenary leaders forefying Prigozhin.

This isn't news.

We know this.

(Okay, fine, it's news and proof too, in case we need it in an argument, but I expected this, tbh.)
