I was hungry asf.

But damn, got some white rice, beef, and some veggies (cucumber and radish) all with that signature sauce that Vietnamese restaurants usually have (I’m not sure what it’s called).

And by the Vietnamese gods, it was amazing.

Just like eating it at the restaurant itself; still nice and warm (but then again, the restaurant was nearby my area).

Came in a white plastic container or whatever material you call it.

Oh God, I look back fondly on that meal I had almost an hour ago today.

I was soooooooooooo hungry too and now I’m not.

How is it that you can feel horrible when you’re hungry (physically and emotionally) and then feel content and all is right with the world after having eaten?

Dunno… Just don’t know…

Anyway, how you all doing? And what did you all eat today (so far)?

      Yeah. I got it from a place I was following up with in regards to a job. While I was there, they gave it to me on the house, and the manager said she really thought I’d be a good addition to the team, but she said that she took someone else for the position because her own boss favored that candidate instead. It honestly sucked because this job search has been an absolute fucking cancer, so to lose the opportunity with a place of employment that seemingly saw good in me hit hard. The coffee was nice, though, I guess.

        Oh wtf

        Wow, tough day, comrade…

        Happy job-hunting, I suppose; have you tried a library? For a job, I mean? There tend to be a lot in my area; not sure how it is in yours.

        But they’re good for jobs if you need, well, any job (but one that doesn’t suck in quality).

          I’ll give it a shot. I tried a few local bookstores but no formal libraries.

            Frankly, they allow anyone that’s interested in books and, well, you’re in one big book club (Marxist-Leninist community) so it shouldn’t be too bad (your chances, I mean).

            Besides, they have positions outside of just standing at the desk and if you say that you’re against book bans and want to help out, that might up your chances.
