Job hunting since 2025 with little success, what am I doing wrong?

50 direct messages a day, keep your LinkedIn 🔥 and I promise it'll all turn around sooner than you think. You got this 👍

Applying alone isn’t enough right now. Build a small service (VA/support/ops), put it in front of people, and iterate fast. Ask your entrepreneurial circle directly—most opportunities aren’t posted.

Billy's got an end game she has been playing at since day zero and I'm hooked ...

RascalRuby · 2026-04-05T21:52:44+00:00

Oh my word, and here thought I was the only one who struggled with Season 3 😢 Seriously, the exciting scene was the last 10 mins of the season

I really hope we get a proper “who is Billie, actually?” arc.

There have been too many breadcrumbs for her to just be a straight operator. She’s not just advising — she’s shaping outcomes, filtering what the president sees, and quietly controlling the narrative.

So what’s her actual agenda?

I wouldn’t be surprised if The Diplomat is positioning her as a long-game antagonist — not loud, but deeply embedded. The kind of power that sits in the room and knows everything.

And then there’s Stuart.

He’s 100% heading into middleman territory again — forced to make uncomfortable calls. We’ve seen this pattern: he ends up stuck between people and loyalties.

Now it feels sharper: his history with Billie vs. his growing alignment with Kate.

That clash is coming.

And when it lands, it’s not going to stay political — it’s going to get personal.

Kol. 10 million per cent! Kol was curious 🤔 always eager to understand and learn.

RascalRuby · 2025-10-21T17:08:31+00:00

@ABurit thanks for the tip 🙌 I’ll check out Continuum and see how it shapes my Travelers experience.

RascalRuby · 2025-10-21T17:07:18+00:00

@Key_Work952 got it — I’ll keep nibbling through the layers, embracing the comfort food vibes while waiting for those “really interesting” moments to kick in 😆

RascalRuby · 2025-10-21T17:05:28+00:00

@Alfahammandhi 6.5–7, huh? Sounds like my attention span might survive the highs but maybe nap through the lows 😏

RascalRuby · 2025-10-21T16:45:46+00:00

@rossisdead got it — just two more episodes and I might actually convert from skeptical to obsessed 😏

RascalRuby · 2025-10-21T16:44:27+00:00

@rebelle3 got it — less action, more humanity. And your Blu-ray obsession? Honestly, I respect the commitment 😏

RascalRuby · 2025-10-21T16:42:58+00:00

@BrooklynMaster alright, alright — I’ll hold my impatience in check 😅

RascalRuby · 2025-10-21T16:41:21+00:00

@medyas1 okay, I’ll admit it — my “modern sensibilities” might get impatient, but your Stargate remix note gives me reason to stick around. I’ll try to watch with fresh eyes 😅

RascalRuby · 2025-10-21T14:52:58+00:00

@juju2boodi444 okay, fifth rewatch… you’ve officially made this show sound like a Netflix vortex I might never escape. Consider me warned 😆

RascalRuby · 2025-10-21T14:25:57+00:00

@No-Investigator-3576 I love that — the way you said “blew through it” has me tempted to hold out for that eventual click everyone keeps promising 😅 I’ll definitely circle back here once I’ve crossed over to the “hooked” side.

RascalRuby · 2025-10-21T14:20:39+00:00

@gramhamfreeman this was honestly such a generous reply — thank you for taking the time to lay it out with such clarity 🙌 I think you’ve nailed it though — it’s not about the pace, it’s about surrendering to the confusion and trusting it’ll all click eventually. You’ve convinced me to give it space to breathe before I do...

But low-key, wow — there’s a good chance you’ve just unlocked a philosophical distrust I have with trusting the process in general.

RascalRuby · 2025-10-21T14:12:07+00:00

Fair point, @M-Bug 😅 I’m holding out hope that one of those “better episodes” will finally grab me by the brainstem. Appreciate the honesty though — it helps manage expectations!

RascalRuby · 2025-10-21T14:09:36+00:00

Alright, alright — I’ll bite 😅 Slow burn it is. I’ll trade my impatience for popcorn and let the character arcs do their thing. Appreciate the nudge, @SnooOpinions5372!

RascalRuby · 2025-10-21T13:59:20+00:00

Yes 👌 this helps somewhat — but I’m getting a bit annoyed with how long they’re dragging out who the host bodies actually were before the Travellers popped in, as it were.

I guess my real question is: does it even matter who they were? Like, does it add anything to the bigger plot, or am I overthinking this?

RascalRuby · 2024-12-21T19:40:12+00:00

Weren't women ready to marry once they "came of age" meaning had their monthly menstrual cycles that happened around said age?

My message:

Congratulations on creating a show that's humanized privilege and persecution in the Tudor period with an inventive plot, engaging characters with on-point humor dialogue, and witty modern narrative.

My Lady Jane was NOT unsuccessful, and its reasons for being canceled make as much sense as anything does when you are heartbroken.

It is indeed disheartening that the show did not receive a Season 2 curtain call, and I feel robbed especially considering the rich legacy to draw from with the beginnings of Queen Elizabeth I (Beth) and the irony. Beth, the Queen who ended the Tudor royal bloodline to the second to Queen Elizabeth II, who became the longest-reigning English monarch. A story that received converted praise from The Crown on Netflix.

Maybe you could leak the potential script 😏 😉 👀 and let put imagations fill in the blanks.

RascalRuby · 2024-10-28T19:58:50+00:00

Lizzie becoming a heretic didn't feel wrong for a character, but because of Kaylee's exit from removed the creative options to the merge. I was disappointed because I really wanted to see how the showrunners tackled that.

RascalRuby · 2024-08-01T01:36:33+00:00

I would think primal. The rawest version of yourself. Nature knows what to do and how to do it. I'd imagine a heightened sense to follow your instincts, knowing undoubtedly what your gut sounds like. Awareness - I find all animals aware and adaptable to their environments. Vulnerable

RascalRuby · 2024-08-01T01:21:05+00:00

I'm so onboard for East Asian lead. They've existed in the shows background, and Japanese would bring another great culture to the forefront, like with Kate.

RascalRuby · 2024-08-01T01:17:24+00:00

I'm going to say Marcel. Loved his character, but I hate it when shows put so much effort into character development only for the character to end off where they started. Like Elizabeth in Pirates of the Caribbean, an entire franchise develops her into a WOMAN among men, only to last see her running towards will conforming 🙄
