Good:

Starting to line up interviews now after finding out a few weeks ago that my start-up is folding.
Excited to be working on some cool code projects in my free time.
I'm super happy about the upcoming release of Starfield and the upcoming console release of Baldur's Gate 3, can't stop thinking about those two games!

Meh:

I have a lot of constant construction noise in my home due to ongoing repairs of some recent water damage.
I've been seeing a lot of negative comments from Lemmy users recently about the volunteer work many people do on Lemmy and it's starting to wear on me.

Bad:

I'm feeling a lot of stress due to this being the first time in about 10 years when I'm looking for a job without already being in a position of job security. I'm very worried about worst case outcomes.
Finding it hard to motivate myself to be healthy right now, I haven't worked out at all in a few months already.

Thanks for posting this thread, it's good to vent a bit.
