#unemployed — Public Fediverse posts

Sometimes people tell us to "get a job" as if it's that simple.

There are multitudinous good reasons why we:
1. Consider our work for Vulpine Labs and the local community more important than any run of the mill "job".
2. Cannot seriously be expected to attain traditional employment.
3. Shun traditional models of pay in favour of Mutual Aid.

And we won't let capitalism grind us down.

Today, Atha:
Reset the mouse traps in the bus
Cleared snow off the bus and car (altitude does not care for your "seasons", mere mortals)
Got a new phone from a good friend
Set up an LELink LeafSpy OBD2 device to help diagnose and fix the car
Did some reading at the library to get back in the mood for learning Python

And Inara:
Did trans HRT injections
Did some cleaning and tidying
Took the car to do a slow charge session
Did some phone setup
Will likely cook food for us and a homeless friend, and do some VR.

If you want to fling us some currency to keep the mardy old system at bay and fill up the bus's thirsty diesel tank, feel free to send to

The horrors persist, but so do we.

Someone who lives in a makeshift forest shelter wants to join us in the bus soon.

The Vulpibus now has an air conditioning unit fitted. We have installed a longer 4G antenna.
We almost had somewhere to go and park a while, but the landowner backed out. Again. And the convoy we are trying to form is moving along.

So the bus is still in need of a diesel refueling, and the current prices make that a matter of about $400. Links below.

We would really love to convert this bus to an EV but that is going to need a much more generous level of help than most folks here can provide.

There are also many debts to deal with, including car loan and insurance, and bureaucratic needs that have fees to pay. Capitalism is ruthless the most when it is legally enforced and you still don't have the means.

If you want to help out with any specific thing, please let us know. Otherwise donations are put to the most pressing need.

Today's food mutual aid request has been fulfilled (yay!)

Now let's see how much of Atha's debts run up trying to survive we can pay off...

The total debts are in the region of $50-60k if you include student loans.
But the immediate needs (to avoid car repo and excessive credit card and overdraft fees) are more like $2000.

What can we do to put a dent in that today?

Anyone want to give @vulpinelabs @Kuniti_shino some food and a month's worth of backlogged laundry money?

Hungry engineers and mad scientists want to be fed well and cleanly clothed for their preparations for winter!

They are bureaucratically held back from "just getting a job" right now unless they can #getfedihired as #digitalnomads or informal work.

Edited: $300/$100 for today and tomorrow and some groceries! Thanks!!!

The highlight of the day so far is being turned down for a job at Plymouth's new crematorium.

#JobSeeking #Unemployed

Just sitting in a local coffee house planning my future. Every company I ever worked for started out on a cocktail napkin. So I figure, maybe there's some magic in using a napkin. 😂

Secret History of How #SuperRich Have Kept #WorkingClass Out of Work
#TimGurner, viral Australian #multimillionaire wants more workers to be #unemployed, was debunked by economist in 1943.
“Unemployment has to jump 40-50% in my view,” Gurner explained, “We need to see pain in the economy.” #Gurner’s soliloquy in particular has little to do w/fears that he and fellow titans of industry are making less money, want daily joy of watching inferiors grovel when in his presence
