I've decided not to be a slave to the corporate machine I was stuck in, especially since it's not really anything that I can rely upon.
I'm starting a photography business, first as a side gig, but later perhaps full time.
Wish me luck.

Another part of the photoshoot, this time in a decayed building. The idea was for the subject to be there, but not fully. Her mind is somewhere else. Also, the urban decay is being reclaimed by nature.

Alright, my financial struggles are hopefully over for now.
Here are the results of my photo experiments from the latest shoot. I'm not entirely sure these are what I'll keep, stylistic-wise, but I'm pretty happy with them and thought I'd share.
The idea for these was the dark corridor and a silhouette, which then turns into a person in the corridor and then a more personal shot, revealing details of the face.
And I really cannot decide, which of the last two is better for this job. Because, in the end, it wil be 3 photos.

Been to a party a day ago and it wasn't really a good party, I felt awkward and out of place because of the people involved. But I have to submit an eek.
And I feel like I'll advocate for men, just this once. It rarely happens.
There's something deeply unsettling and disgusting in a red flag way when I hear that the group of friends really tried to persuade one of their friends to break up with their allegedly toxic boyfriend, just to immediately jump in and try to recruit said breakee into a polycule and fuck her.
There's some details involved, but it's predatory as hell. And I know for a fact that if a man did this, I mean persuading and immediately trying to have sexual relations with said girl, he'd be rightfully branded a predator and cast out.
God, I love editing photos. I love taking photos. I love meeting the people, even if sometimes they're complete fuckers to deal with.

"But they work 320 hours a month!"
I'd do, too, if my "work" consisted of meeting somebody at a dinner to talk briefly about the business and I could just write it off.
Whenever anyone says that the rich work more than us poors, they might be right. It's just their work doesn't look anything like the work majority of us do and is not so mentally and physically draining.
Not to mention, that most of us don't have an army of servants to take care of everything, so aside from professional work there's also the upkeep of... Well, yourself.
I bet, that Musk just walks around the establishments he owns and shakes hands and he considers it work. I can reliably bet on that.
,,Skapywanie"
Od małego powtarzali:
,,Ucz się, ucz. Bo wiedza to do dobrobytu klucz."
,,Pracuj ciężko, ktoś to doceni."
,,Nikt nie mówił, że będzie łatwo."
Pracujemy. Jedni więcej, inni mniej.
Zazwyczaj równie ciężko.
Zaznajemy wypalenia przed trzydziestymi urodzinami.
Nawet ci, co jak ja mieli szczęście,
że coś skapnęło z drzewa genealogicznego –
wolą czasem
zapaść się w słodką nicość,
choćby na sekundę –
by odetchnąć od kolejnego dnia
w tej niekończącej się
tyrze.
Budzik. Autobus. Biurko. Ekran.
Budzik. Tramwaj. Biurko. Ekran.
Dni sklejają się w jeden dzień,
jak kartki kalendarza,
którego nikt już nie zrywa,
bo i po co, skoro jutro
będzie tym samym co wczoraj,
tylko trochę bardziej nieznośnym.
Wciąż desperacko powtarzamy sobie:
,,Ale zawsze mogło być gorzej".
To myśl, która czasem
mruga niczym zepsuta lampa
która nie wiadomo, czy jeszcze świeci
czy już gaśnie.
So, guys. I still need #mutualaid.
My budget is a bit tight, as usual. I'm still recovering from the random stuff that stretched it out a lot and I'm not really in a financially safe position when it comes to work. I might get laid off every month and my hours have been fluctuating a lot.
I'm looking for a new job, but so far had no luck. I don't have much money and if anything bad happens, I'll be very fucked.
I need your help. I don't need much of it. Thank you.

Maybe I'll regain some of my creativity, because this soul-crushing job killed it.
How the fuck is it 27°C at 2AM??

Szczur is alive and well and recovering. The surgery was difficult and took 2 hours to finish. But the doctors succeeded.
So, guys,
turns out my current financial situation is rather shitty and despite believing I'm off to a better start, I still couldn't make it. I'm completely broke right now and could use some support for food, bills and upkeep of my cats.
If any of you could help me out, that would mean a lot and would really change my situation for the better. I'm in Poland, so euros and dollars are worth a lot here.
Thanks. Boosts appreciated.

Took these insane photos of my friends lately and I'm so proud of them, you can't even image.
I feel like I'm getting so much better at portraits, folks.

I'll believe corporations are people when Texas executes one.
So, how are your 2026 bingo cards doing?
Like, today it was 37°C and when I went outside I felt the fucking nuclear blast. And I'm living in the attic, south-west side. Tomorrow is supposed to be even worse.
I'll die.
"The problem isn't that women are now independent, it's that men are not. A working husband comes home to a cooked meal, and the working wife comes home to cook a meal. The phrase 'independent man' does not exist, because men have not yet broken free from their dependence on women."

Update: the cat is currently on the operating table and ready. Even before the surgery, he's in a pretty bad spot and he's going to be hospitalised afterwards.
So, I've heard that the Berlin Pride Parade was canceled due to domestic terrorism and Israeli settlers set fire to Mosques in the West Bank.
Business as usual, for sure.

Here's how it looked. We found the culprit. It's removed now and according to 3 separate veterinarians, his guts are looking very good and promising.

I genuinely think my work will make me either kill myself or die of a heart attack/insomnia, because walking in traffic seems preferable to fucking enduring this shit show for a moment longer.

According to the political theory that I've learned in the University, Zionism is antisemitic because a) Palestinians are a Semitic group of people and b) it was a tool for Europeans to basically say "not our problem" and ship the Jews away.
Yeah, and being the neo-colonial project after colonialism officially ended, it really puts a lot of Jews under antagonistic sentiments and therefore in danger.

Ah, Mondays. To think that I enjoyed last few days thoroughly just to wake up at 5AM again.

I was supposed to get a bonus of 35% of my monthly pay, as all employees do because of record profits by company, but turns out I'm short on 4 days of employment and I'm not getting any of it.
