** Just a little heads up that in this ramble I do talk about some unpleasant work experiences so no worries if you want to skip out on this one! They aren't anything too bad, but I also know that some people don't enjoy hearing stuff like that when they may be trying to relax. I wanted to share them because if my experiences can help anyone listening then that makes me happy :)

I've come to really enjoy adding rain to my rambles- I think it gives a cozy vibe like I'm really talking with you all. What do you think- rain or no rain? :P

You stayed in California? Oh wow yeah no wonders you suffered from expensive rents! We hear up North some horror stories regarding the condition of apartments in there, the requirement of roommates, demonic landlords... Yikes. But hey: even as a "simple" retail worker, having worked in Cali will give your resume some good points! You've lived in Hell for a few years, so that's social experience that is hard to get by. I'm sure it will make some folk interested in your skills. Oh right, and don't be a dumdum: you reaaaally think your Patreons will mind a week or two of silence or slow posts? You know as well as us that you don't like sharing rambles, art or videos you're not proud of, so you follow your "moving pace". Don't disrespect yourself because of a platform! <3 Stay safe on the road back home. : )

Once you mentioned In-N'-Out I knew it was somewhere in California. But not gonna lie though, you had me crying a bit. :'( I can't believe you had to deal with that in your workplace and yet you have to move back now. But I can agree that some places feel like home to you at all times. I remember that I just loved all of the North, but I had to move due to the expense living there. However, now living where I'm at, it feels like the only home I know since the only home I remember was back in my apartments. ;-; Wow thanks for the heads up about work, now I'm gonna be frightening if I ever am stuck with a coworker that does that to me. Definitely not giving me self doubt about the people I will soon work with.

Best of luck for the job search, Ali. I agree the people you work with can make or break a job. I once had a boring af job cleaning a shopping centre but the coworkers and even the boss were so chill and fun to be around that I was genuinely a little sad to leave. I've worked in retail for probably a grand total of 3 months my whole life, and I can confidently say that they were the hardest 3 months I've ever had. Doesn't help that I was a teenager at the time and was definitely an anxious wreck. The experience did give me plenty of empathy for retail workers though, so at least one positive came out of that. Ps. You've been in California this whole time? Valley girl accent asmr when?? 🧐

You shouldn't feel obligated to upload videos like you're a robot. If you need a break then you should take it. You're stressed out, moving out and trying to find a new job. The least of your worries should be uploading a video weekly. I know you feel like it isn't fair to us patrons but we are patrons cuz we like your unique content, not because we demand exclusive and constant content. Those things are secondary reasons why we are patrons. I honestly rather have you making videos when you have yourself situated and well. In short, don't hesitate in taking breaks. For jobs, you should try Amazon. You legit don't even need a interview

Hey, preciate the HBD! Wasn’t really expecting that lol. Moving can definitely a really busy and stressful time, recently did one myself after all. We do appreciate you setting stuff up in advance for the Patreon, but prioritize yourself first! I’m sure all of us will be more than understanding if you have to set the audios on the back burner during your move. Sorry to hear you had a lot of rough experiences while working, everyone says retail is hell but damn you went through some super toxic places. I feel really lucky that all the places I’ve worked at have had good people for the most part. That store enforcing the name brand leggings didn’t sound that legal, if they want you to wear them as a uniform they shouldn’t make you buy them. And with the target girl, yeah I’ve met some people who act like they’ve got authority when they don’t. Those types are especially insufferable to me. Luckily my current job humbles those kinds of people real quick haha The coworkers making fun of the guy with a disability was the most fucked though. Good on you for just walking out of there. Shows that you stick by your principles and that’s an awesome trait that a lot of people lack these days. Glad that you ended up at a place that you actually enjoy working at though, with good people. Definitely get why you’re sad about leaving and worried about how your next job will be, since you had a lot of shitty work experiences before your current job. Hope your next job will be just as good as Hot Topic is for you now, or at least that it won’t be as bad as your previous jobs. But like you said, at least you learned and grew from those experiences. Agree with you 100% that bad experiences can sometimes the best teachers. Good luck with the move Ali, hope it goes smoothly and you’ll be able to settle back into your home state quickly. And like I said earlier, don’t worry if you have to set the audios and stuff on the back burner so you can prioritize your move. Your real life is more important than our entertainment! (wish the YT algorithm would be as understanding but that thing’s a brutal machine haha)

May God bless ✝️ you on your moving/job searching journey I know how stressful that can be. So I hope everything will go smoothly for you and also prayers for your family member. Lastly, mad respect for standing on business (standing on your principles)

Funnily enough, I have also been thinking of moving out of the state that I am living in. I love the city but rent is too high in any of the major cities in Arizona currently. Thankfully I work from home so I should be able to keep my job, but unlike you I would likely be moving to a place that I have no friends or family in which brings it's own problems lol. At the very least I hope everything works out. I will say that as someone from Arizona, we tend to think our California neighbors are a bit entitled and generally pretty childish. I really don't put much stock into stereotypes but maybe moving out of Cali will let you work with people that have far less drama if the stereotype is even partially true. I've never worked retail and thankfully work in a place that has basically no workplace drama (I think cause mostly everyone is 25+), it is a bit hard to hear about your experiences. Thank you for sharing the stories still, and hope all goes well with any future jobs.

I moved from Germany to Austria two years ago and last year I moved from the city to the village. how worried and exhausted I was during this time. I would completely understand if there were no more videos in the next weeks. I can't speak for everyone but I think we will still be there even if you don't do anything for us for a few weeks. so please don't worry about us. to the question about the rain. I love the sound of rain. I would be happy to hear heavy thunderstorm to the rain But I think I'm the only one who would like it.

Hope things go well with your move back to your home state. Honestly, I had a similar feeling of my home in Tokyo, Japan, feeling like a second true home, and was a sad moment for me. Those are quite the wild work stories. I only worked in retail based jobs for a short time, and never quite had to deal with such toxic workers there.

I wish you and your family the best especially with having to move and find a new job. I think you should also focus on your life before anything else, I think we'll be alright. I really like the sounds of rain, I grew up in a house with a metal roof so I've always been fond of it. I was telling someone last week it's a shame that I enjoy rain instead of a sunny day, cuz you can't really go out and enjoy the rain, I mean you can, but you'll get sick, I know I've tried. Since some stuff was kinda serious, and I can't help but be stupid, I'm actually going to recommend a video called "When You Don't Want ANYONE to Hear You Poop." by Wizards with Guns. Is it a stupid video? Yes. Does it still make me laugh? Also yes.

First off, I think we'll be fine if you disappear for a few weeks to do what you have to do! Secondly, I do hope all goes well with your family and the move, and with the new job search as well! And I hear ya about the expenses! I'm in North Carolina, in a city where rent just keeps going up and up, and the costs of homes are ridiculous, not as bad as CA, but I feel like if I go any cheaper, I'll be in a neighborhood where I'll hear gunshots regularly instead of occasionally. But ugh... ya know, even in the corporate office world, there's still so much drama it's ridiculous, can never escape it! Lol though, the drama that I have to deal with may be animosity towards me as I'm in the same senior position as other members of my team, while being half their age.
