Unemployment Rates by State

I’ve blatantly ripped off a table of unemployment rates sorted from least to most. It’s a pretty handy moving guide for the time being.

Enjoy.

Jekyll

I’ve completely fallen in love with Jekyll as a blogging platform. I might create a few more websites or write my own Jekyll template, depending on free time and my mood in the next two weeks. If I’m able to find employment that gives me a moment’s peace, I’ll definitely forge forward with the awesomeness that is a Jekyll tutorial, because I think everyone should get to know this stuff. It’s fun, flexible, and worth investing a little time to research. I’ll drop a link to it in another post some time today.

Frantic

If anyone happens to know where I can find an oasis of jobs, just drop me a line if possible. It appears that there really aren’t a whole lot of options out there. It’s getting a little frustrating, seeing as how I have bills and shortly will not have a means of paying them.

Anyway, any and all help available is greatly appreciated: redlegion@gmail.com. Thanks.

Complicated complications

Well, lack of funds has forced me to run more than I usually would from just one machine. I’m operating a few services on one cloud-based instance and I think it’ll get me through. It’ll be a gigantic pain in the ass to whitelist everything I need to for Cloudflare, but in the end I think it’ll pay off a great deal. It’ll keep the DDoS-happy kids away, at least.

Rebirth

I’m going to take up blogging again, occasionally anyway. I don’t see myself finding anything incredibly important to say. Still, I might as well exercise my right to voice opinions. That hasn’t yet been wrenched away from us. That said, expect a ton of retarded nonsense blog posts from yet another vehement ecclectic.
