never lay down in bed right after eating. don't think about staying on your phone for nearly two hours in that position. don't sleep either. acid reflux is real and i hate that guy

#uhhhh eat healthy and drink water etc etc #yknow. the exhausting but healthy things we gotta do to keep our silly billy bodies workin #i hate how this adds up to anxious thoughts djsfjdsbhjqklfehpiJADAASFGHJIOPA #i tried drawing today but it felt so draining and pointless #the floods + university strike + the cold + lack of routine + overall anxious thoughts but ig everyone is going through it too #i'm just glad my house is not under water now. my pets and things are all here and i do have blankets to warm myself with #but damn.#when your mind is not occupied with the routine it starts bothering you with unwanted thoughts #and it's not good when everyone else at home is going through the same stress #it feels just as hopeless and stressful as it was during the covid pandemic #in a way we are 'under quarantine' and isolated. unsure if it's gonna directly affect our lives.#i heard the water levels are rising quickly and people are coming in seeking public shelters...#lol idk how this went from acid reflux back to the floods. see that it's def something we can't stop worrying about rn.#what if i wake up with water on my ankles tomorrow? the videos we saw showed the water coming in so fast it's fucking scary #there was no way to just pack everything and move before it got worse.#starbstalks

(face in hands) (again) men will simply feel the walls closing in around them

#my brother got covid from hanging out with his boyfriend. again.#and by the sounds of it they want to quarantine at our house.#ih his room which is. you know. directly adjacent to my room.#aaaaa and we have a trip coming up in two weeks and then my job starts in full and just #if he comes here i’m literally leaving to go stay at my partner’s instead #but it’s killing me because i’ll have to leave my pc and tablet behind and just #aaaaaaa i feel stressed i feel stressed #i’ve been in an exhausted fog for the past two weeks and it feels like i can’t get anything done #it’s like time has just been slipping by me and it makes me So So Upset #like what do you mean we’re more than halfway through august!!!!#and yet also: FUCK!!!!! I TOTTED THROUGH AUGUST!!!!!#i’m coming dangerously close to feeling the way i did during spring semester #when my brain is craving a release like crack cocaine but it’s not coming #every other day i’m dealing with work crap and hassling with irl things #and when i’m not doing that i’m rotting at my desk fatigued out of my mind #trying my best not to pass out until 9pm when it’s reasonable to do so #just staring at whatever video i can put on and blaring it loudly so i don’t fall asleep #aaaaa…………..i want out of this………. i’m on my break and yet i still want out aaaaaa……..

Blah blah blah Thunder moons at Star Flower and she gives him a plant that looks like Blazing Star but turns out to be a mimic species. And he babbled out the One Eye Attack Plan to her. You know the betrayal is coming, it's not exactly hard to predict

She has had a grand total of like 3 scenes and in each one everyone was like, "Star Flower Sus" which Thunder ignores.

Anyway back to clear sky (derogatory)

pooor baaaaaaaby. his heart is aaaaching that the people he abused, humiliated, and lorded over tyrannically for months "can't be relied on." No reflecting on his behavior btw because the books are determined to say that he Just Made Some Honest Mistakes :(((

(ignore the fact that one eye conjured up a million instant minions that outnumbered SkyClan lol. the book sure does until it's convenient)

"Trying So Hard To Protect." I just... I can't believe that people read this arc and completely forget the previous 3 books, end up buying this brand new Clear Sky at face-value, and accept this as a "good redemption arc".

You could write one paragraph at the end of 6 books that describes a completely different plot than the one that was written and people would buy it, and praise it as The Best Arc Ever

But anyway, Clear Sky is not allowed to feel bad about the consequences of his actions for more than 2 minutes before everyone gathers together to Clap At Baby

Because GOD FORBID he be held accountable for his actions, or people feel fucking weird about the murderous dictator trying to win his army back, or anyone call him an oversensitive megalomaniac for letting in two violent rogues he was warned against after throwing a fit about "being told what to do"

But anyway he's a brand new character now, so he goes to stare at Jagged Peak's wife to "remind himself why he's doing this." As if that can cover up for the fact we've ALWAYS, SINCE SUN TRAIL, known that he is a character that thirsts for power and control over others and always would have had motive to get his authority back.

#Also he now cares about jag's sick wife when he was ready to throw a baby into a ditch earlier lol #the difference being that the woman benefits his brother as breeding stock but he doesn't give a shit about some stranger's child #Maybe I'm being mean but CAN you blame me?! Do you see what I'm dealing with?!?#How they just went Ohh Clear Sky :) when he was fully ready to evacuate all the healthy cats to a quarantine den and abandon the sick again #But nope now he cares because Jagged Peak --who has finally proved himself 'useful'-- likes this one #Wind Runner is so fucking right to not be here right now she is so so right #Fuck these people #dotc hate

i feel like people with sick children are way too fine with letting their kids run around and get other people sick like. it is rude to knowingly spread diseases? if i'm sick i don't take it to gatherings of other people why is your kid exempt from this

#i realize this is probably a logistically difficult problem to solve like you can't really quarantine a 3 year old very well etc but almost #almost every time i've gotten sick in the last couple years it's been from kids and now my friend is saying she has a fever and sneezing and #thinks it's from someone's kids. someone who is coming over here for dinner which i was invited to but umm perhaps not #like again idk what the solution is but i fucking hate it when someone's kid is like actively slobbering on you and they're like oh haha #she's got a cold lol and don't seem to consider maybe you don't want the cold. do parents just resign themselves to being sick all the time #honestly i think that's literally what my brother has done which is insane to me but whatever #me

EVERY fantasy book EVERY scifi novel every starwars movie every post apocalyptic show. I ask, WTF??? The same same question EVERY time. Say it with me - WHERE’S THE FARMING?

#ursula k le guin is guiding me. hand on my shoulder.#approx 200 generations of agriculturist ancestors stand at the other shoulder and they are yelling #where does your food come from? who makes your clothes?#who repairs them?#how do you store these things? how do you preserve them?#What fuel do u use to cook how many people are you feeding?#look. too much of the art i consume comes from the imperial core/global north where most of us have to think about where our shit comes from #approximately none of the time #but if u are writing about an alternative world u HAVE to have these systems #i just watched the gay episode of TLOU and it was pretty good in that regard but in the early part the guy had chickens #excellent move good work #and then the chickens never reappeared?? nor the food garden? we only saw leisure activities? which sure u could have some time i guess.#but what the fuck were you feeding those chickens? did ur big metal fence keep foxes away too?#and then at the end [spoiler event] WITHOUT LIKE. REFERENCING WHAT WOULD HAPPEN TO THE ANIMALS?#YOU HAVE DEPENDENTS MY DUDE. YOU CAN'T JUST [SPOILER].#and how do those quarantine zones work? those walled citiess? we saw the land 10 miles to the east and it was wilderness?#and weirdest thing there was pasture? grazed pasture? but no animals on it? is this city land?#why weren't the fugitives avoiding it? why was it in the middle of forest?#or was it some other self sufficient person? in an underground bunker? who herded all their sheep in when they heard people coming?#which if u have ever worked with sheep. good luck doing that urgently.#me fein #agriculture

found a guy with the weirdest misconception about dead space which is that upgrading health doesn't actually give you more health it just makes the health bar look longer, but now it's making me paranoid that like. what if that's true. what if what i've been assuming are health upgrades aren't actually doing anything and in reality the "health upgrade" is just the improved armor from when you buy a new suit and any kind of advantage i thought i was getting from upgrading health directly is just psychological ghlskdjflksdjf

#i dont think so ive been watching him play and he seems to have a tendency to just kinda assume things w/o testing them #but. what if he's right #i need to write dow nthe things i wanna test/do in the game in general cause there's a few things that i'm curious about #like how quarantines work wrt swarmers & what happens if you lose in the ADS part of the remake (dont tell me if u know lol i wanna try it)#and i wanna record a swarmer death cause i enver did that before when i went around recording death animations #plus i haven't actually used the foam finger or the burnished suit or w/e that i unlocked from the impossible run

the best part abt being enrolled in a calculus iii course is that it means i finally passed calculus ii. i have been enrolled in no less than FOUR different calculus ii courses, three of which failed to work out for various reasons, and literally NONE of this (calculus ii being a necessary course for me to take in college) would have happened had it not been for NUMEROUS FACTORS beyond my control but it's fine it's cool i'm learning NEW MATH for the FIRST TIME in FOUR YEARS and i am LIVING

#(i'd have taken calculus bc in high school thereby allowing me to take calc iii right off the bat in college had it not been for y'know.)#(The Numerous Factors Beyond My Control Which I Am Still Extensively Salty About To This Day)#like i don't even use the word salty like that very often anymore n i guess it's bc the slang fell out of use + i'm not as salty a person #as i used to be? idk BUT I AM STILL VERY SALTY ABT MANY FACETS OF MY MANDATORY EDUCATION AND THE DECISIONS OF SCHOOL ADMINISTRATION #i hate school admin sooooo much but Anyway #the first calc ii course i failed bc the prof sucked ass #the second calc ii course i failed bc of quarantine hitting. i'd have totally passed otherwise i'm pretty sure #the third calc ii course i withdrew from bc i didn't vibe w the prof n also it was in the evening #then the fourth one was last winter n i was convinced i got a D or smth but i guess the prof had mercy n gave me a C or smth #WHAT MATTERS IS THAT MY SISYPHEAN HELL OF NEVER KNOWING IF I WILL PROGRESS IN THE ACADEMIC BRANCHES I WANT #IS NOW OFFICIALLY OVER AND I AM FINALLY TAKING CLASSES I'D HAVE OTHERWISE TAKEN THREE YEARS AGO but it is okay #bc life keeps moving forward n i will keep moving with it #in other news my boss asked me if i'd like to basically take the lead on our afterschool programs n like.#if it keeps me from having to train for sports good lord i might as well even tho i can see like.#so much more work coming out of this bc if i'm gonna run smth or make anything out of anything i Need it to be Excellent #but what do you DO with a bunch of kids in an afterschool program???? my coworkers are like 'play sports outside'#and also i have many questions and requests to make to my boss when i see her next but it's cool i'm writing them all down #the worm speaks

love my digital art class but god it is filling me with rage and hatred for adobe.

#my post #i hope im able to use my tablet in classes when i transfer #bc good lord. this shit is impossible #i would be done with this project already .. but im not even halfway through.#its due on friday too and i cant get adobe illustrator on my laptop and work on it outside class bc adobe wont fucking COOPERATE WITH ME.#its trying to make me pay. girl the school is already paying for it for me what the hell are you talking about. let me in #i should talk to the professor..oogh but theres so much other stuff i havent done for either of the classes i have with this professor #bc of that unnecessarily long quarantine i had to do right at the beginning of the semester putting me behind #and i would feel bad abt asking for an extension for whats basically the only assignment ive actually done for both of their classes #i would feel less bad i think if i had accommodations for this kinda stuff. but i never actually went to get any and now it wouldnt be worth #it bc im not gonna be at this school next semester. and i only have these two classes that i have anything to do for #oh right this post is abt adobe #.. i dont think id be able to fully finish this assignment on time even with an extension #bc adobe illustator. like i said. is filling me with rage #it is so tedious and finicky and unnecessarily complicated and doesnt have the tools i like and i cant find a fill tool or how to make the #eraser smaller and im using a fucking. mouse. a mouse that i cant right click with btw bc we're using apple computers and the mice are lite #rally just one button.#i love this professor and i enjoy the projects but good GOD. i hate the tools so much #maybe ill ask them for an extension and if i could do it. not on adobe

i definitely think quarantine stunted everyone under the age of like 25's growth and its detrimental to society today

#like obviously society was 'on hold' for however long people decided they wanted to quarantine for if they even did #and people were doing and saying the craziest shit wayyy before the pandemic #but i notice a lot in the younger kids in my neighborhood thay are starting middle school or are starting school in general #that they act 3 years younger and arent fully adjusted (?) to where their brains need to be for their ages #even with teens in my classes! obviously we're teens and we act immature but this like a whole other level #you have people in class stuck in 6th-7th grade and dont know what a rhyming word is #and not even like your usual handful of ppl who cheated their way thru school but like a good 5 ppl in class know the diff between #metaphors nd similes. we're reading classic literature and stories set 100 years ago when blk people were making their own communites #and you have people loudly whine that theyre pissed at the book and nobody talked like Shakespeare did in the 1500s or #nobody talked like just free black people back in early 1900s #like duh quarantine was necessary and all but i think a side effect of it was general immaturity in society #l speaks #ranting in the tags because i can #OH. i was gna mention ab online discourse too like obvi people over 30 use the internet #but you only really ever see dumb fights with insane outcomes come from people who just hit drinking age #idk i just feel like i noticed something that j think other ppl may have noticed but.

god fucking damn my life, bro. I find a couple of ants in my room and immediately freak out. I start feeling shit crawling on me and turn on a flashlight to go look for some hidden source, already hyperventilating. And then I remember I woke up late and didn't take my morning meds. Girl, we have a balcony and my mom keeps plants there. Calm the fuck down. You like having the window open. It's FINE. It's just ants.

Last weekend I skipped my morning meds two days in a row cuz I woke up late and I feared sertraline insomnia - which, yes, in hindsight was a bad idea - and on Sunday I had a full meltdown. Granted, also period-related, but god fucking damn it. I tore my whole room apart. I couldn't vacuum under my bed easily because of my desk's placement so I decided I was going to move furniture around and reorganize my room. On a Sunday afternoon, in the summer and with tendonitis. All cuz I saw some ants and couldn't verify with my own two eyes every corner of the room. And because I couldn't physically move the wardrobe and bookcase, I guess I took out my anxiety with the remaining furniture. And god fucking damn it, here I am again a week later.

I keep finding ants (3) running on my desk all of a sudden while I'm SITTING THERE and have no idea ("no idea") where they're coming from (engage the phone flashlight routine). I moved this bitch AWAY from the window and they're fucking HUNTING me or smth (it's 35ºC out, girl). I hate my life. And I hate that any suggestion of bugs makes me start feeling shit on my skin that isn't there. Dumb fucking brain. Anyway I need sleep and to take my sertraline asap or else.

#i can't express to you how badly I was doing last week #my mom wasn't home when I was remodeling but I was fantasizing about screaming:#''take those plants out of my side of the veranda or i'll throw them OR myself off the balcony''#i'm not suicidal don't worry it would be for the drama of the ultimatum #and then I took my meds the next day and I was calmer lol #but this has happened before. i believe this entire formication / almost delusional parasitosis started cuz i'm allergic to mosquitoes #and as a kid who lived with 3 grown people and had no power over them to close their damn windows - I attracted all the bugs #and I couldn't sleep and I heard and felt them near me and it was a horrible time #still at 23 i can only either pass out from exhaustion or more often find and kill them before I can sleep #when I was 14 or smth our cat also got fleas and I spent the most paranoids nights of my life suffering cuz they got into my bed #last year I slept over at a friend's house for a night and brought back what must've been a SINGLE flea #I'm not kidding you when I say I quarantined my room and slept in the living room for over a month. i was panicking #(i've since started anxiety meds)#I legit feared we had bedbugs and was looking at every single outlet and corner of my bed #our cat recently caught fleas and I combed through him to pick them out every day. that experience actually calmed me down about them #but it's when you can't see them / where they're hiding that's the problem #(it also taught me to let my cat in my room and then fleas become his problem LMAO)#(cuz his long fur 24/7 is way better than my legs for 8h I've been told lol)#anyway point is I get freaky when I suspect bugs are hiding somewhere #and that they're gonna bite me and I'm going to get super itchy and not be able to sleep #i start feeling shit on my skin and yes i know that's not normal. and I have to look at it to convince my brain to ignore it #i get jumpscared by my HAIR falling on my arms girl. that's embarrassing #what i'm ANGRY about is that this is about ANTS. who want NOTHING to do with me and every to do with idk leaves and crumbs #and I KNOW they're from the veranda. but nooooo someone is dumb and skipped her meds and now she's withdrawing and freaking out. about ANTS #EMBARRASSING.#as i'm typing this i'm scratching at myself for what is most likely 1) nothing 2) my hair or 3) cat fur #i'd bring this up to my therapist but he abandoned me </3 like they all do </3 i'm gonna develop abandonment issues at this rate LMAO #so uh anyway imma finish what I was doing (lie) and go to sleep (eventually) and take my meds #and hopefully remember to mention the formication to a health professional at some point lol #i just needed to write this down as evidence of how i'm feeling rn so tomorrow I can read this and say ''wow that was silly'' mkay? kay

cool albums i listened to in 2022 pt. ii and this time it's strictly 2022 albums

Another Life - Nadine Khouri

Moonage Daydream - Bowie/Morgen

Electric Cowboy: Born in Carolina Mud - Boulevards

Omnium Gatherum - King Gizzard and the Lizard Wizard

Cowboy Ballads Pt. 1 - Jesse Tabish

all of us flames - Ezra Furman

Multitude - Stromae

Stup Forever - Stupeflip

Teatro Lucido - La Femme

#all of us flames is the one I'd beg you to listen #cuz it's genuinely. a piece #I think about its opening and ending tracks so often #it doesn't try to be this big political statement album ezra is expressing her grief and fears and convictions #in such a personal way. that still lets people in yk the kindred spirits #the music is great but her songwriting and story telling are so unique and amazing and ugh.#and also im gonna sound so pretentious be ready #but she doesn't deserve to be remembered for bein the sex education netflix soundtrack #when she wrote this album #that starts with the most poignant metaphore. and ends with another most poignant metaphore.#'and what do your rainbows do here on the ground?' jfc #cowboy Ballads is also a magnificent quarantine album #and to everyone who hasn't watched moonage daydream YET. treat yourself and happy new year

looking at the dates on all these playlists and I'm surprised that they're so old but the date says 2020. because I'm still in the mindset of 2020 having been like. last year. even though it very much was not. these playlists are three entire years old but it feels like that should've been 2018 or something. not 2020

#STARES AT FOND QUARANTINE MEMORIES. WHAT DO YOU MEAN I WAS THAT YOUNG!!!!!#also like. in general. looking back i was a CHILD still when i liked all this stuff. it feels so weird to say ''i grew up on this media''#when it's like. i was also on tumblr when i liked this. those are my former blorbos......#<- all of these tags are about my hq phase btw #that show absolutely helped shape who i am today. profound impact on young teenage self #i'm talking like i'm ancient now. i'm not. but like. ??!?! the passage of time #echo.txt

I don’t worry about getting sick I worry about getting back to work after recovering and this probably says something about me

#life #because you see getting sick disrupts the flow and it’s really hard to change from not doing anything every day to suddenly having to #start being productive once I get up #and what makes it even harder is I must start doing this before I even leave the quarantine centre because I’m that busy #but everything here is unfamiliar and I can’t focus when there is very little familiarity in the environment or my routine to ground me

i should've gone to college
