It’s early Christmas morning and I am awake. Not because I’m excited to get presents, but because I couldn’t stop thinking about how badly Game of Thrones ended, and why disastrous endings is becoming the norm these days. Another long running series also reached it’s conclusion this week, Star Wars. The reviews were so bad …
During this past Black Friday sales event, I was able to pick up a $1/year vps from Gullo’s Hosting with a promo code. (You can no longer get them for that cheap. Now they are available for $3.5/year) The specs for this VPS are very limiting: NAT IPV4 (20 ports) IPV6/80 128MB RAM 1 vCore …
I’ve been very upset the past few days about meaningless things going on in the internet. It’s been very distracting and I’d like to leave it behind. I’ve tried ignoring it but that doesn’t work. I need to work out my feelings on why this bothers me so much. A group of trans rights activists …
Things have been looking up in November where I, predictably, made more money from my website business. Here are the sources: Adsense: $116 CJ: $208 booking: $116 viglink(sovrn): $198 A total of $638, which isn’t bad, but can be much better. I already have a number of other parallel streams of income that should be …
I don’t drink alcohol. I was talking to someone yesterday and it dawned on my how many assumptions people make about someone who doesn’t drink alcohol and how every single one of them is wrong in my situation. In my entire life, I have never found another person who abstains for the same reasons I …
Well, it’s been a few months. I’m heading back to online dating. I don’t want to, and the… grim… resolution to my last relationship lingers on. I dislike the meat market of online dating, how it’s generally a race to find the least broken person willing to give you the time of day. But I’m …
I like Buying old technology which is still usable today and available at a fraction of the cost. The LG G Pad 8.3 is a perfect example of a tablet that is still a functional workhorse in 2019, yet I was able to buy one off of eBay for $45. A modern tablet in the …
Here’s a (short) list of where I got income for October: Viglink (or Sovrn now): $26 CJ: $144 I made a total of $170 in the past month, which is still terrible. I need to be getting upwards of over $1000/month to give me more breathing room. Let me look at the tasks I assigned …
Back to Traveling Is it really traveling if I’m going back to where I lived before? I’m back in California helping out with family stuff. I’m glad I can be useful. I enjoy these trips, even if they aren’t to anywhere new. I took the bus this time. I found the experience interesting. It definitely …
I saw an article about the FIRE (Financial Independence, Retire Early) movement on the first page of my financial news today. While it wasn’t anything new, I was surprised at how it stuck to the facts and avoided the typical: These people somehow don’t spend all of their money on things, isn’t that weird? It …
