I'm going to have to take my own advice and take it easy on The Discourse, perticularly as it pertains to US politics.

The popular vote went to the Nazis, and they're going to do Nazi things. And I spent decades of my life understanding what Nazi things are: a whole BA in history dedicated to studying Nazism, in the belly of the beast: Berlin. The city that saw the worst of it. A city that, much earlier than western Germany, started studying and condemning Nazi crimes. For ideological, pro communist reasons, but the methodology has held up to outside scrutiny before and after the fall of the Wall.

I know what you're in for, and should you wonder yourself, they wrote it down in Project 2025.

But I feel that I might have to disengage a little bit, or the only things I am going to post are furious, tearful ranting, because you allowed yourself to fall for it even after Trump's first term. He's already talking of taking Greenland just like Hitler demanded part of the Czech Republic, and it's so easy not to care, because it's only South America, or Greenland, and you have problems now - see, here I go again. You do have problems. I'm aware. So if I'm simply posting fandom, or personal minutiae, it's not because I don't see, or care. I care too much, and I'm cursing Reagan, and all the other deregulators of the financial markets before most of us were born because this is always how it starts. I'm buying Too Good to Go simply because that keeps some money out of the hands of multinationals. If you need help emigrating to Europe, I can ask around for info. But I need to stop caring about Trump when he's not screwing with my life because I am going to make myself sick.

Good luck, godspeed, read up on both Nazi Germany and Project 2025 and support the ACLU, vote in every goddamn election there is. Read up on fascism and if you think you saw something, no you didn't. In Holland, people sometimes survived the war because the whole city knew where they were hiding and didn't say. Several people spotted Anne Frank as early as 1942 but she was only rounded up in 1944. All these other people simply knew and tried to keep her safe.

But I'm also so, so angry at anyone who voted Trump, or Stein, or did not out of apathy, and everytime I see us politics on my dash I am in furious, terrified tears.

And that isn't helping anyone.

So, fandom and life hacks it is. Not because I am not seeing. But it isn't good for anyone to witness atrocities they are powerless to stop.

And I'd be lying if there aren't Dutch and German Nazis to resist. We only just managed to keep Geert Wilders from becoming Prime Minister, and replaced him with the head of the Dutch version of the CIA, who is NOT on Putin's dick. And thank God NATO is being headed by a Dutch historian right now. I know he's worried too, he's told us so.

But yeah, I know you're busy after half of you have set your house on fire.

That was a stupid thing to do, really was. If only you could have seen it coming...! In that manifest they published!!!!

(See? This is why I have to stop engaging with this).

fun thing about herding and/or generally neurotic breeds: they are really good at following rules you have instituted, but they will also make their own Dog Rules they will follow stringently whether or not you like it

Since I can't voice this on pretty much any other social media platform...

My friends are few and far between these days, for a mix of reasons, and I really don't feel like I have anyone who really actually understands me, to have deep conversations with, etc.

Honestly, it's really fucking lonely and depressing for me right now. Especially when I think of all the mostly unmentionables going on in my bullshit life at the moment.

Lack of friends. Lack of anyone to "deep dive" (referring to above) with. Legal bullshit and the multitude of consequences of that. The loss of my favorite job ever and the very real possibility of never being able to get it back... T-dump being in office and the domino effect of bullshit that's happening in the world and in my life because of him. The uncertainty and fear of what's to come. Bad teeth. Greying hair. Getting older and with no partner. My animals and people I love/care about getting older. Knowing at some point they'll all die. Not really handling the grief/pain of previous deaths, some being 12+ years later... Being poor, constantly struggling... There's not enough words to describe all of this (and so much more) in detail, and the effects it all has and/or will have...

I don't feel like I have solutions to any of it. I'm fucking tired. And that feeling gets worse all the time.

Can't lie, seriously passively suicidal... It's hard to keep doing this shit (life) every fucking day when I see little to no benefit in it anymore. I'm never incognizant of the positive... But the negative is overwhelming; obviously worse at some points than others. Right now, it's particularly shitty...

Maybe that's what brought me back here... Just to vent and get some thoughts in order. Not everything, but some shit, at least... A little outlet for when the world feels significantly cold and dark.

So my Steam account was hacked and overtaken in October of 2018. I know that because I had received emails that the email and phone number had been changed, buuuuut I wasn't really active on Steam at the time and I was particularly bad about checking emails, specifically that email account. In 2023, I attempted to regain access to that account to no avail. I couldn't provide the first email used and quickly gave up, and even though I wasn't happy about it, let it go.

A few days ago, I decided to try again. Back and forth over and over between Steam Support and I for like three days. I had to dig deep. Turns out, I had completely forgotten the original email's existence. Long story short, this morning I finally won the battle. It's only been like five years :P

Now...I'm lost. Definitely changed since 2012; I suck at gaming and especially PC gaming. Maybe I'll get some practice. Doubt it, but it would be nice to...participate, for once...at least a little... Do what others tend to do.

I started using Head and Shoulders ten years ago for itchy scalp and dandruff, and then for ten years I have not had itchy scalp and dandruff, so I thought “why do I still buy shampoo to combat itchy scalp and dandruff when I do not have itchy scalp and dandruff,” so I stopped buying the shampoo for itchy scalp and dandruff and can you guess I have now? Can you predict what currently afflicts me? It’s alright if you can’t because apparently I fuckin couldn’t either
