    It's hard to be forced to change career paths. I've been working and studying for more than a decade for the same kind of job and I have to change. Right back at the start.
    Careers aren't someone's life, not entirely. But a job is mostly required to live. It'd be easier if getting a job was easier. I could do something to help myself.

    I enrolled into a course and finally have something to look forward to besides waiting for companies to answer my letters (which they never do). If I go through it, and get my diploma (and a job), I will have effectively changed carreer paths quite dramatically, which is exciting.
    To celebrate, I've added a new page in which I've posted some new drawings. Enjoy!

    Even though I am proud of my academic accomplishments, I don't like to mention my studies or diplomas. But I find it bitterly funny that I've got several years of post-high-school studies and yet I can't get a job carrying boxes of books around. No answer even after a phone call! "Yes, we have your application, we'll get back to you soon. Your interest is noted by the way! :)"
    The job was supposed to begin last month... I imagine they've found someone else.
    Maybe I should prove I can carry boxes by putting up videos of me carrying boxes on Youtube?

    My life is not back on track but I made an account anyway, or rather repurposed an older account I didn't use into a ciircuit account.
    I've been out of a job for some time now. Earlier this week, I had a meeting with a government-funded agency supposed to help me find a job and get some unemployment benefits (which I don't qualify for anyway).
    Whereas I'd been rather good and quiet, molded into following a more or less classic academic carreer, a very bad experience worsened my vision of (public) research past a tipping point.
    I am now embracing more and more the idea of fleeing into the woods and living from nuts, acorns, and berries. Or learning a trade.

    I think I'll go back to Twitter/X/Txitter once my life is back on track.

    I've added a contact page, in which I will answer questions. This means the contact page will double as an FAQ... for now.
    I've also added a signature of sorts on most pictures of the website; it's a small grey band stuck below the pictures that contains a link to this page. I've also thrown in the signature date for free.

    I've written a little booklet on graph theory!

    New "recipe" (Carol's Cooking Fails). Failure ain't so bad. Just don't eat weird things that can make you sick.

    This is terrifying.

    If you're just pouring something clear out of context, I'll assume it's regular water, but I won't drink it.
    I've put recent illustrations and drawings in the ILLUSTRATIONS page.
    "Some ingredients go together like Karol and breakups." Would you think Carol would be able to say that? I didn't think so either. She doesn't strike me as someone who would do mean jokes like that. She would think it though. She isn't naive.

    Revamped website to tidy things out. I will add content and pictures back.
    Decided to continue illustrating Carol's recipes (Kiwi Salad).
    Missing Twitter and friends there. May try BlueSky.

    I've put Carol's recipes in book form. Available here.
