But I need help to even get to the baseline where I can seriously pursue Head Hustler status without crashing and burning within weeks, let alone get back to writing or to any of the artmaking and digital curation work and nerding out about Blackness I *actually* live for, and wish to develop long-term sustainable practices around.

So yah, that’s what this gfm is about, in a nutshell. I gotta hit a hard restart on how I’m living and how I’m approaching life, and this’ll give me just enough breathing room to make some real changes for the better.

"Saoirse is a compelling character study which uses elements of a family drama in conjunction with nuanced depictions of heavy themes to weave a beautiful tapestry of a life."

Review: Beloved by Toni Morrison

"Beloved is one of those books that the more I think about it the more I like it. I think I am starting to understand why this book is so beloved (pun fully intended!) amongst critics and readers alike. Like I mentioned earlier, this is a book that demands your full attention and it rewards that attention with a story that has complex characters and a nuanced & compassionate understanding of the real history that their lives are based on."

Review: We Could Be So Good by Cat Sebastian

"A few pages into my reading of the book I immediately became a fan of Cat Sebastian’s writing style. This book is genuinely quite funny and at many points in the story I found myself laughing out loud. What’s even better is that the book balances its humour with an excellent understanding of what makes for a good romance – tension, yearning strong enough to give me second-hand heartache, and a healthy dollop of queer drama. Just a perfect blend on display here."

Hey, so Social Security fucked us over and we're not getting partner's disability check this month. We need $50 immediately for basic necessities like toilet paper, and $500 within the week for rent and electric. If either rent or electric are not paid by the 15th, we can get evicted.

Any help is appreciated.

Review: The Unbroken by C.L. Clark

"The Unbroken was definitely a better time than the other two epic fantasy novels I read this month, it avoided the trap of too many character perspectives while having a reasonably nuanced portrayal of the complexities of colonization. My feelings about the ending notwithstanding, the characters and world that C.L. Clark built here is compelling enough for me to put the second book in my TBR for a later time."

well hello again, I would still really love to #getFediHired. US, remote work.

all the things I said previously (https://flipping.rocks/@inherentlee/114230874324783924) are still true - I've got 7 years experience at Microsoft in cloud infrastructure (particularly containers and Kubernetes) and devOps; I'm in my zone teaching, communicating, and documenting; and I have a strong focus on accessibility and team culture.

I've also spent the last while, both a bit at Microsoft and then much more deeply since unemployment, doing web development with a focus on web accessibility. Personal websites, blogs, and hobby sites are my jam, whether starting fresh or helping with a redesign, and I'm happy to take on freelance projects. Reach out and we can talk scope, pricing, and design ideas.

You can view my resume on my website at https://leecat.art/resume/

well hello, I would really like to #getFediHired I have 7 years of experience at Microsoft in cloud infrastructure, focusing on Kubernetes and devOps with additional experience around databases, front end, algorithm design. I am a skilled technical communicator and used to working across teams and even across companies. I have experience teaching people new to or experienced with technical topics. Documentation and maintenance are passions of mine, and I want to ensure that not only do shiny new systems get built, but that they are documented, maintained, and can be monitored. I've done considerable work in LGBTQ+ and accessibility education and love to find the places where these topics shine a light on technology. Please reach out with leads.
