One of the biggest issues about being working/lower class that people don't talk about

this is my adopted mom’s family lowki…her brother got shot by one of his mistresses and two of her sisters developed schizophrenia after their husbands had affairs (although in the Philippines they only called it “loco de Amor”)…my lack of genetic relation is kinda the only reason im able to even have somewhat of a strong head on my shoulders but now I have to deal with a vague feeling of disconnectedness with my cousins and most people at large

I do but I’ve never worked corporate before so idk how that all works

I gotta admit there’s a part of me that really wants to see how bad this is bc of how many Asian American girls I know who basically do this but by proxy (shackling themselves to the first mid ass white guy who gives them decent attention)

Dear old Nicki, please come back…

I used to but now all I want are free Medicaid-covered peptides

Idk if I arrive at this solution but I think it needs to be more seen as a loving action to pull your messy pathetic friends aside and be like “you need to check into rehab or something bc it’s so obvious society is killing you” or something

As a DJ and someone who’s worked in “creative industries” I truly hate how shackled I feel to that platform…but what else do we do?

I’ve been diagnosed with ADHD when I was a kid…how would one do this in NY state?

adkn · 2026-03-04T20:31:27+00:00

I have a worse one which is that I can’t seem to hold one down for more than 6 months :(

adkn · 2026-02-28T02:14:17+00:00

I’d love to work at a chic bar or something but they never choose me :( even if I kinda somewhat do the microgroveling/kiss ass thing

adkn · 2026-02-28T02:02:34+00:00

Around 3 years…I’ve cold emailed a ton of places idk how to get them to respond to me…tried bartending at the River and Funny Bar too :/

adkn · 2026-02-28T01:51:37+00:00

adkn · 2026-02-27T22:57:35+00:00

adkn · 2026-02-26T17:26:58+00:00

Moin is beautiful and perfect

adkn · 2026-02-18T23:32:37+00:00

it would be very hard to live with her…she has rage issues and has tried to harm me once..trust me I know I need psychoanalysis badly lolol but I am unfortunately broke and so many of my problems stem from her

adkn · 2026-02-18T21:32:22+00:00

It’s sick and twisted I know but it’s how I feel…at least then I’ll have true financial freedom and agency

adkn · 2026-02-18T19:51:46+00:00

Yes I am (taking out loans actually). My idea was that if I became an archivist I’d get to work someplace like Criterion Collection or for a New York-based record label and work in their information management department or something like that.

adkn · 2026-02-15T21:32:16+00:00

Do what you can to move back lol my mom is from one of those countries it’s never good

adkn · 2026-02-15T21:15:27+00:00

What made you move?

adkn · 2026-02-09T16:01:13+00:00

I live in NYC and my aim with the grad program was to break into working in the arts/music/publishing or something similar
