Mini Cinnamon Roll Cheesecakes
Hiring managers acknowledge as much. In a survey of more than 1,000 hiring managers last summer, 27% reported having job postings up for more than four months. Among those who said they advertised job postings that they weren’t actively trying to fill, close to half said they kept the ads up to give the impression the company was growing, according to Clarify Capital, a small-business-loan provider behind the study. One-third of the managers who said they advertised jobs they weren’t trying to fill said they kept the listings up to placate overworked employees.
You've probably been in the position of sending out your resume far and wide, filling out zillions of applications, and going weeks or even months before even getting an answer. Well, turns out a lot of it's because they're not actually hiring anyone. It's not just you.

Your bladder reminds you to pick quickly and you dash down the tunnel smelling like your dad's musty spoon collection.
You notice after what seems like an agonizing minute of waddling through the tunnel that the tunnel never seems to get lighter. You keep your hand to the wall to guide you through the straight tunnel, the walls getting rougher with each passing second.
Eventually you find a line of light illuminating the ground, indicating a door frame, and you open it.
It opens up to a circular laboratory with gutted machinery, glowing tanks with strange shapes, and naked wires littering tables and floor.
In the middle of it, you find a toilet. Inside a a wire cage. Upon closer inspection, you see that it is a human sized snare trap.
Weightless wonder, wind like
Whispers, limbs entwined
Two trumpet vines with
Four eyes caressing heaven
How can you etch a moment
Into your skin? Tattoo the
Cosmos behind your eyelids
Clutching comfort like confetti
In your clumsy hands—
A body was not built to
Hold this much heaven
And the wonder splits
Me at the seams, we sip
From the big dipper
Diamonds and dreams
Everything sparkles

Gift giving is a great time to get people you care about frivolous luxurious. Some notes:
for college people: things that'll bring comfort or fun (concert tickets, salon certificates, pre-paid yoga, dance classes. cozy clothes, warm blankets) stuff they might have at home but not at school, or stuff they maybe used to have but grew out of
recent graduates/ppl with big life changes: they probably need necessities (see above: sheets, kitchen knives, coffee grinder
ppl who are already settled down: want single-use luxuries. Things that they've bought before, but don't want to keep buying. Think fancy lotions (get stuff from lush), exotic foods (like fancy salsas)
A scratch off map of the world for someone who loves to travel
A map to place pins in for a grandma who wants to keep track of her grandchildrens journals across the country
A Spiderman poster for a teenage guy still excited about the movie
Gift card to a movie theater to allow a teenager to go out more
Very cozy onesie
Pride flags/clothes
Also!!!! Gift giving for neurodivergent people seems hard, but I promise you is actually way easier than you think. Find out their special interest. Buy them things based on it. You CANNOT GO WRONG.
Christmas is also a great time to buy fanart / fan-made goods.

tips:
make a "things I’d like but don’t want to buy for myself frivolously" list for gifts! - (MADEMOISELLESARCASME)
ASK PEOPLE WHAT THEIR FAVOURITE COLOUR IS!! I always ask this to people I meet for two reasons: 1. Great ice breaker! neutral and easy question to ask! 2. Great information for getting gifts? what better to receive anything in your favourite colour? :)
i find that gifts that get a laugh are also really good too, like i got my friend a sexy pepe body pillow and he really enjoyed it (pictured below, being braced by my sloth stuffie)

aka possessions which are just possessions, but which have noticeably improved my quality of life: for when people ask you “what do you want for your birthday/Christmas/graduation” and you instantly transform into St Francis and pledge fealty to Lady Poverty because your mind went blank
nice. new. sheets. I cannot emphasize this one enough. if you’re still using the same sheets you had in college, you should probably get new ones. get yourself some 100% bamboo rayon sheets—they’re silky and perfect for summer and great for sensitive skin! or, if you’re cold all the time, flannel sheets!
kitchen knives. or even just one really good kitchen knife.
new curtains—blackout if you are a creature of the night like I am
fleece lined anything, but especially sweatpants and hoodies. wool lined socks are also good. if you don’t have the option of coming home after work and putting on an entire outfit that is loose and fuzzy, you should change that, because you deserve that option.
cookie sheets with a layer of air between the top and the bottom. the bottoms of your cookies will never burn again.
kitchen scale!!! no more leveling off flour with a knife and getting it all over the table!! now all your measuring is just shoveling stuff in and out of bowls like you’re at the beach. baking is both more accurate and also way more fun.
coffee bean grinder. if you want to upgrade your coffee experience, this is a great one-time purchase. just-ground beans have a much better flavor than pre-ground.
CDs!! ask for a gift card and expand your physical music collection! or a collection of the DVDs for your favorite show!
By the way, if you've just discovered the Jingle Bells on the top of the menu, and been playing around with them, have you also discovered that you can play with the bells by using the search bar?
