I donāt even listen to Gotye but Iāve lost three pets over the past two years (one from old age and two to terminal illness) ā¦ after the first one I searched songs about pet death because I was going through it and found this. So I specifically only have listened to this song under those circumstances and have definitely conditioned myself to cry just from hearing it. Tested it just now and it worked :ā)

Supposedly recorded shortly before his death, Elliottās take on the Cat Stevens classic wasnāt published until Mike Millsā terrific film āThumbsuckerā came out in 2005.
Prescient. And so Elliott, right down to the false starts.
That chord change in the bridge just melts/breaks my heart.
I miss him almost every day. š

i accidentally deleted my message so iām gonna speedrun this (i graduated in 2022)
- itās ok to do seasonal work. hiring ppl will understand. look for things that canāt be replaced by AIācamp counselor, food service, etc. anything that will give you a W2 and keep the lights on.
- look for housing in your price range NOW, not what youāre hoping to achieve. itās ok if thatās $0. depending on your city, you might have low-income resources. i lived in the projects for a year and a half after graduating, and it helped me get on my feet to start building my life.
- apply to literally everything. you meet half the qualifications? apply. out of your city? apply. probably gonna be replaced by AI anyway? apply. it gives you a chance to practice. just stay away from jobs that ask you to do free labor as part of your interview.
- goodwill helped a ton. depending on where you live, they might have free job training courses and fairs where you get to talk directly to employers. it at least gets your foot in the door.
aaaaand thatās all i have lol. iām rooting for you. shitās rough out there. know your self-worth and look for creative solutions, i believe in you

Response times are super slow on my phone. I have an iphone xr and I know many apps donāt cater to that, but i often have a 2-3 second delay between hitting buttons and it actually taking. with emojis/links/pictures, it jumps to 8-10 seconds. so i often hit buttons twice or more and then have to double back. the theme tab in particular is super slow, taking me 6-8 seconds before any change is registered (besides haptics). theme tab would also benefit from labels for the custom themes (i.e. background, text, accent).
