Not updating price for me

Just paid rent, have $40 until next Friday. Too much dip buying this week 💀

This dip has destroyed my bank account. No going out this weekend. Rationing remaining food stores

Cat dad doesn't look too bad lol

I feel you, I miss shooting film more often, but for me, I don't have dark room access to make prints and again, I'd just end up digitizing the film at that point anyway. I admit there is something to be said about the permanence and physicality of film that just doesn't translate to digital images for me. I miss film grain, a higher dynamic range, and better tonality that film can offer. Anyway, I can go on and on about nostalgia and romanticizing the process of shooting to making a print, but I think anyone that is shooting film gets it. I have a lot of love for people keeping film alive. Keep it up!

A lot of people end up digitizing their film anyway, so is it worth it to keep shooting film? Chemicals and development are just getting more expensive over time. Access to darkrooms are an additional cost. I can see black and white and certain alternative processes sticking it out. But if you're shooting color, why not digital? I'm pretty much all digital these days with the exception of poloroids. If I'm shooting film I'd prefer medium format or 4x5, but occasionally I'll throw a roll of 35mm in a camera for fun.

I ain't afraid of no rollicoaster

Correction to 58k before 150k

I did contract work for the DoD, every month I had to write up a monthly status report with bullet points of all the tasking I worked on and completed. It was pretty normal for contractors, it's about time they hold those in government roles accountable too
