Sorry guys, I think it's time for me to do van life. That way my stuff gets that certified #patina

Hotel work can be cool as ****, it can also be a drag. Covid has just made it a drag for a long time. even cool lifestyle brands stop pretending they give a **** about their workers when they are hemorrhaging money.

Going through some life changing medical ****. I’ve lost a bunch of weight and none of my clothes fit anymore. I’m also not able to manipulate buttons very well. I guess it’s sweat pants and slip ons the rest of the way (whatever is left).

Damn dude I'm really sorry to read that. You seem way to young and healthy to have to go through that.

I've been dealing with super unlucky medical problems the past 5 weeks that have changed the way I'm able to live my life. I'll be able to recover form it, but I can sympathize with how ****** going through medical problems at a younge age is.

Turned 35 this weekend. My son’s almost 3 months now. Trying to stay positive, but grounded in reality.

Damn, man. Really sorry to hear.

Is the condition treatable? Do you have medical insurance?

I really really hope that it's just life changing, and not life threatening @cyc wid it. Obviously, no pressure to disclose more than you're comfortable but we're all pulling for you and your family. Clothes not fitting sounds like it's the least of your worries. I lost a friend of mine a few years ago, he was 33, and there's nothing more tragic than a promising life abruptly interrupted by unexpected medical issues.

I noticed you haven’t posted for some time or at least very seldom. I’m super sad to read that, and I don’t know what you are going through, I hope you have the support you need around you.

Was going to put in my $.02 on the whole career/job redirection… but, **** that. @cyc wid it has just reminded us all that there are more important things than even this, which yes, is quite important, but not the end all… CYC, dood, best of luck and truly hope you see a way through to recovery. ?
