#Dont say any personal info

How about- I used it and I turned out fine-ish. I followed all my parents rules, only really had Facebook for the games before finding and using the closest thing to social media that I actually like enough to consistently use(fanfiction sites) and having your parents actually ask you to make a social media account
#Am I really that out of the norm?#Like#ive never really been a part of the whole social media craze#I just was#Why should I have cared about anything other than games stories/fanfics and funny/interesting posts my family sent me?#My parents were always open to letting us do our own thing as long as we knew the rules#just#When I started using the internet for more than coolmathgames my parents already had the internet safety talk with us#They made it short and sweet#Dont say any personal info#Donāt interact with anyone we donāt personally know#And if anyone says anything weird to go get one of them immediately#Yet a lot of people nowadays donāt even understand that????#I will never be able to understand that

just got a dm abt one of my posts and y'all please don't try and show the hermits (or any minecraft youtuber or content creator for that matter) my posts, i'm uncomfortable with it and don't want any of my posts shown to a cc. if they stumble upon it naturally that's unfortunate but i can live with it since i do maintag a lot (something i REALLY need to stop doing tbh i already know i need to make a tagging system just for my blog that wont clog results) but going out of ur way to show a cc is entirely different and something i am not comfortable with.
no hate to the person at all but even if i wasn't a little silly and weird with it sometimes i wouldn't be comfortable with it, i want my blog to be a purely fandom only space with none of the creators involved <3 please respect this
#which is imo how a fandom space should be#i'm old fashioned and it breaks the fandom etiquette rules i stand by#i ship and stuff and absolutely NO cc needs to be subjected to that please and thank you even if it's a non-ship post#not saying hermits and others cant hang out and interact if they wish hell no but like....#if you as any person with a following willingly go into a fandom space you have to expect to see some things you find weird#doesn't even necessarily mean ship just stuff the cc finds weird :v idk im not phrasing this right but like#the rule with shipping around any sort of media has been to keep it away and not show the creators anything !!! and thats fallen out#of practice the past few years with ppl getting more and more comfortable demanding boundaries and personal info from creators#which isn't right imo bc its like you're trying to see how much you can get away with. u want a guide on how to interact and social skills#which is... huh??? just be polite and keep anything weird away from them like what we were doing#some folks nowadays need āpermissionā to ship stuff even from SHOWS and shit with no real people and its like wow... huh....#u need it to be canon?? u need everything told to u by the show?? wheres the imagination. the spirit.#the making of everything so far removed from what it once was#like that guy that played nick from heartstopper that had to be outed to play a gay guy. like#idk im so sick of the boundary fandom ppl in mcyt 'what if they saw and made it uncomfortable!! im going to show them!!!!'#you are making them MUCH more uncomfortable than i am by GOING INTO THEIR FACE AND DEMANDING THEY LOOK AT IT!!#AND DEMANDING BOUNDARIES N SHIT... CRAZY.... idk the hermits especially its weird to me bc clearly they understand fandom etiquette#and the dynamic im talking about. most of them understand that by going into fandom spaces they will see things they dont like#which is why a lot of them only like fanart and answer questions asked by fans. even on tumblr !!! where the weird ppl are!!!#they also all seem to understand they are playing characters (citing joel cleo and grian as examples) for their audiences#which is. smth the audience itself doesnt understand most of the time anymore. oh my god they all died in real life in hermitcraft season 8#idk hermitblr used to be a lot more okay with hermitshipping n then a bunch of ppl from other fandoms moved in and its all more negative#and makes me sad. idk...#i never meant for this blog to gain almost 500 followers i just wanted to make silly little ship posts and now im scared to#bc ive gotten hate and its.... bwugh.... tempted to remake blogs and make one thats very clearly just for me and a few weirdos#whatever i went off on a tangent in the tags as usual just pls dont show creators my posts even non-ship ones for this reason#jamies bad posts#talking in tags#serious posts#<- ig??? idk

am i the only one still weirded out by sokkas actor lying about being indigenous or did i miss something. like was that false information or did he apologize and were like well hes a kid so whatever or how is it. it just felt like such a huge deal back then and then everyone stopped talking about it
oh yeah! i forget what i've posted on this blog versus what i've talked about with friends online and in person, so i may have not said it on this blog. ive personally been pirating the live action, because im not sure if theyve ever commented on this. if anyone knows what came of it - if there was any acknowledgement by netflix, etc? i'd love a link. it is weird & sour point for me watching especially w sokkas char. and id totally get why people wouldnt wanna watch the show at all because of it.
#cal answers#ask#anon#ive personally been really wanting to see gordons performance as aang#+ wanting to judge the live action myself versus forming opinions on what ppl are saying#so its why im tuning in at all#but yeah im pirating it bc i just havent seen any public comments about it? i dont really know what came of it and i want to play it safe#i think the info came out at the end of filming? so idk if theyre planning on recasting later if they get a s2 or what....#i dont have a lot of info on it anon so im sorry i cant share a lot but i just want to acknowledge ur def not alone!

we don't think any of you guys know how fucking hard masterposts are
#we speak#<this is a joke. we are joking. this is something that We Did To Ourself due to our need to be meticulous on tagging and such#directly hampering our ability to post things even if they're As Good As Done by now. or even done entirely#realistically if we could hammer our a masterpost like those guys we see doing like. āday 1 (shipname)ā then we would be done VERY fast#but we have DIGNITY and also we uhh. cover a wider range than most whump folks we see on stuff like this?#we cover Relevant Info because we dont generally. stick to One character. or One set of characters. or One fandom. or-#yknow the fact that during the latter days of this challenge we were going like ā6 cordyceps works is probably Enoughā#āwe need a better goddamn idea for this prompt. if we more of these in this narrow of a period of time we'll start recycling thingsā#probably says something about us. unfortunately we are fundamentally incapable of being the sort of person who can slam out#29 days of the same ship like we saw in a handful of those masterposts#which. unfortunately. means we need a more involved tagging system for masterposts since we can't just do āall of this is (x)ā#and then we spend another hour hunting for a painting we did in germany that we couldve SWORN was in our luggage#but that we just CAN'T FIND anymore that we're starting to have a sinking suspicion we left somewhere in germany#anyways if any of our posting gets further delayed. assume we're in the rotatatron. and also trying to set up ao3 postings.

rgg can have a You Did The Bare Minimum award for keepin jo alive and not continuin the trend of one-shottin every interestin antag we meet but they esp deserve it cause lettin jo live the rest of his days in guilt and shame without the power to do anythin is pretty thematically consistent for him. if i may be insane to say.
#snap chats#Stream Of Consciousness dont look at me im rambling#EW this text post is longer than a tweet thats disgusting#i never even tweet outside of art on twitter. ok i do on my personal but i barely post there outside of qrting stuff lmao#In Any Case. i do have an essay on my dome about shame/guilt and jo i aint gon lie#thats been brewing for a while cause like.... lol..... lmao perhaps....#ill just keep it short and sweet rn cause my brain just aint fucntionin how the fuck is it 10pm hold on ļ¼ļ¼Ā“Š“ļ½ļ¼#anyway Speedrun Version of what im thinkin tonight#jo's greatly motivated by the guilt he feels for his irresponsibility debilitating masato#he does all he can for him in an attempt to atone for that#but despite those attempts he still shoulders that never-ending guilt#despite those attempts i think its a fair wager to suggest he probably thinks there isnt anything he could do to properly atone#but he at least can and does still try right. this comes back to him going to jail i promise#beforehand jo /felt/ as though he was powerless to do anything- in prison he's /physically/ incapable of doing anything of use anymore#or. he's at least incredibly limited. the most he can do is tell ichi past info but Specifics right#moreover both the arakawas are gone: even if jo was free he still would have no conceivable way of 'redeeming himself'#esp in the case of arakawa that feeling of guilt is worse: this is another case that he arguably couldve prevented#obvi with masato that one is more sure He Definitely Could Have Prevented This but Specifics 2x right we know what im saying#my words are muddy but i hope we know what i mean. in prison all he can do is think and be left with his feelings#all he can do is stew in his regret and guilt. its like. Thematically the perfect consequence for him#like again One Thing to let him live but it also just so happens to play into that eternal guilt/utter powerlessness so well#this type of thing is going to decay my brain until LAD8 comes out and all of this is undone somehow but for now.... i love his misery...#ok this is the only vaguely. I Thought For More Than Three Miliseconds Today post youre gonna get im going back to being stupid

not to be That Kind of zelda fan but the hyrule historia does also explicitly refer to the world of the ocean king as āanother worldā
#i bring this up to be slightly petty but also as in like. one of the big loz info things refers to it as its own world#like even if the game is inaccessible and ppl dont want to look at cutscenes or anything. its Right There in this big series resource#im mostly pissed at this i think bc it kind of borders on straight up misinfo on phās lore stuff and also just. it feelsā¦ idk#really hand-wavey and indicitive of maybe how little some loz fans think of ph? that they see these baseline similarities with a more#popular loz game and just go oh so its like that. without actually fact checking or looking more into ph itself to look for nuance to it#like ph aint perfect but this is just one thing that pisses me the fuck off bc they always default it all to working exactly as it did in l#when it very clearly does not beyond those really general broad strokes- like its just wrong and it bothers me bc i see it often#its barely even up to debate tbh (headcanons are free reign tho) cuz like. canonically within the game and outside it is a solid world#everything in there is real and some of it interacts within the great sea. it just has different properties and w/e#like smaller headcanon shit is fine ofc??? like oh maybe its just in a different location in the same world as the great sea#or nitty gritty hcs abt how time passes in comparison n wether or not oshus himself csn manipulate how much times passed between worlds#its just like. the ādream worldā thing feel so different bc it just seems to come abt from ppl not actually looking at the game and just#conflating it with a different game like theyre like eh this ones not important so i can just figure it works the same as this other one#i think that explains why i hate this idea??? like im not pacing back and forth fuming abt this irl#i picked up the historia bc its in my room and i was looking for other stuff anyways and was like hm what does this say#its just. just irritating enough. i may delete this later#anyways āthat kindā as if i dont personally follow the official historia timeline#og point of this post is like. the book considers it āanother worldā and makes no suggestion that its not real in any sense#compared to with la it makes it clear that yeah that one is a dream

iāve been trying to figure out how to say it for days, and hopefully this will do, but... i recently passed 1000 followers on this blog!! and thats!! Bonkers!! i sincerely didnāt think weād ever reach this point ever since i started several years ago, so i sincerely want to say: thank you all so so so much for your support!!!
unfortunately, iām just a bit too frazzled at the moment to properly celebrate like i want to, (even my little daily doodles are keeping me busy..!) but i didnāt want to go too long without acknowledging it! i definitely want to put up a raffle or something once i can (maybe we can do an ask/art game in the meantime..?), but until then... for every interaction, every nice tag or comment, and every flip-flop of my silly little fixation brain: thank you for sticking with me! have a lovely day, folks!! <33
#piktalk#WAHHH I CANT OVERSTATE IT ENOUGH..!!!#ive seriously appreciated every single little comment or compliment even if i dont respond--#im a bit of a nervous person and this isnt my main; but believe me when i say it really makes my entire day!!!#being able to share the joy of enjoying something is always my favorite part of fandom so--#really truly! thank you!!#i also wanna mention ill (hopefully) have my comms info up soon for those who were interested!!#ive just been trying to steel my courage for it ! thankyou for your patience!! orz#so!! um!! before this gets any longer; one more time: thank you so so much!!!

Also me loosely researching the classical music industry in japan and finding some westerner getting ripped to SHREDS in some reddit post. I was legit reading this comment aloud to my coworker bc I was aghast at how brutal they were being (but also kinda amused bc they were. Kind of right.)
#speculation nation#i say loosely researching bc im not going for 100% realism in my self indulgent band au fanfic#but i still wanna have an idea of what the real life music industry looks like#the original asker was someone who was like 'i wanna combine my dreams of being a professional musician & living in japan. any tips?'#tho like much longer than that. talking about the plan they were thinking of and all that shit#there were ppl who were like 'literally Why Japan'(bc of anime probably)#& then the brutal reply from someone living in japan that tore INTO it#one of the biggest things being that Most people in professional orchestras in japan are japanese. for several reasons#like paying for visas not being smth the orchestras would wanna do. just easier to keep with ppl from japan#this response detailing how they could Possibly go about this if they were legit serious#but then being like 'but thats not why you want to do this is it?' & calling out the weird glorification of japanese culture#and i was just like Dammnnnnnnn#me and the employee both being old anime fans who are learning japanese for the enjoyment of it#but neither of us having any illusions about japan being the end all be all & thus wanting to Move There#id love to visit someday but i dont want to Move There. it's apparently pretty hostile towards foreigners overall anyways#but yeah i almost felt bad for this person. but Also. this response gave me some very useful info for my research#like yes sorry OP that u just got murdered. but this person just supplied the info i was looking for so Hell yes

I'll go further then that, young feminine presenting people, do not wear an engagement ring or a wedding band to interviews. Don't volunteer in casual chat that you went to a honeymoon recently, planning a wedding, etc. etc. No one at a potential job needs to know anything about your private life.
A couple job interview hacks from someone who has to give a job interview every single goddamn day: (disclaimer: this goes for my process and my companyās process, other companies and industries might be different)
1. There are a few things I check and a few questions I ask literally just to figure out if you can play the game and get along with others in a professional setting. Part of the job I interview for is talking to people, and we work in teams. So if you canātĀ āplay the gameā a tiny bit, itās not going to work. Playing the game includes:
- Why do you want to work here? (just prove that you googled the company, tell me like 1 thing about us, I just want to know that you did SOME kind of preparation for this interview)
- Are you wearing professional clothing? I donāt need a suit just donāt show up in a ratty t-shirt and sweatpants.
- Are you able to speak respectfully and without dropping f-bombs all the time? Not because Iām offended but because I donāt want to be reported to HR if you wind up on my team.
- Can you follow simple directions in an interview?
2. Stop telling me protected information. I donāt want to know about what drugs or medications youāre on, I donāt want to know about you being sick, I donāt want to know if youāre planning to have children soon, I donāt want to know anything about your personal life other thanĀ ācan you do the job?āĀ
3. When we ask,Ā āWhat questions do you have for me?ā here are my favorites Iāve heard: - What does the day-to-day look like for a member of your team?
- If one of your team members was not performing up to his usual standard, what steps would you take to correct that?
- What can I start doing now to accelerate my learning process in this job?
- What are some reservations you have about me as a candidate? (be ready for this emotionallyā¦.it will REALLY help you in the future, and Iāve had people save themselves from a No after this, but can be hard to hear)
- In your opinion, what skills and qualities does the ideal candidate for this job possess?
- What advice would you give to a new hire in this position/someone who wanted to break into this industry, as someone who has worked here for a while?
Those are just my tips off-the-cuff. I work in sales in marketing/SAAS, so these can be very different depending on the industry, but I wish the people I interview could read this before they show up.Ā
#a shitty employer will pick someone less qualified over a fully qualified feminine presenting person if they think they'll be pregnant soon#the assumption is first comes love then comes marriage then comes a baby carriage#many many MANY employers do not like the āheadacheā that's associated with this thought they would never say that outloud#they don't want to look for maternity contract hires they don't an employee who gets sick a lot#they don't care that long term studies have shown investment in these things produces better more loyal employees#when choosing between a female presenting and male presenting individuals there is an assumption that one of these will be the āmotherā soon#and will not 100% focus on work while the other is the āfatherā and its not their problem if the kid gets sick#it's fucking heteronormative and sucks but it is how shitty interviews function#they do not know your actual background and they do not care#they work entirely on assumptions#even if you tell them you dont intend to have kids (don't) 9/10 no one will believe you#massive portions of people don't actually believe in childfee marriages thinking that once someone is married babies will happen eventually#so Do not give anyone any info

i spent, like, 4 hours today, 2 hours on Tuesday, and another 2 ish hours last week working on a self portrait and it does not look like me š
#which is fine. i guess.#im taking an art course. and#well. its not being graded on how accurate it is.#its fineeeeeeee.#and like#i *knew* that it didnt look like me. ofc i was *trying* to make it look like me but i knew i wasnt doing too well#and i sent a picture of it to my dad while i was on the phone w him#and he like full body laughed; 'This Looks Absolutely NOTHING Like You. You Weren't Actually Trying To Make That Look Like You- Right?'#'Cus That Looks Nothing Like You AT ALL'#TO PREFACE! my dads a supportive parent. im not making any sort of commentary about him as a whole#AND HES RIGHT!#IT DOESNT LOOK LIKE ME#I KNEW THAT TOO#but man.#and i just.#i wasnt going for realism either so there were parts that were i guess more Not Real than others. and i told him that before showing him#guhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh#again. nothing against my dad personally.#it just made me feel even more like shit#*works for i forgot how many hours today and call my dad and show him the thing im working on*#*he laughs and kinda says i failed big time.*#*deep breath* AGAIN! nothing against my father personally. he was literally just stating facts and i respect it#that does nothing to make me feel less shit though.#ough#well. i guess that means i can post the painting to tumblr at some point-#1) its a painting and 2) if it doesnt look like me than its really not giving away any info#i dont know why ive still got this stranger danger Internet Evil attitude drilled into my brain š#i was taught not to share ANYTHING remotely personal online and it stuck lmao#also omfg there's a TAG LIMIT? god damn. alright. so. i guess im heading out now lmao#goofy jelly thoughts

idc if ppl think im problematic i just want it to be for the actual real reasons i am
#like... im kinda aggressive and might attack if provoked... i intentionally exude a threatening presence and personality to#scare ppl away but also bc i will actually try to fuck you up if you fuck with me too much. i also struggle with not knowing#how to handle my cat yelling besides yelling at him which reinforces him but it doesnt matter bc he does it anyways even#if i stubbornly ignore him so idfk what to do i think he just think thats the normal way to talk atp and it driveS ME INSANE BECAUSE#HE IS MOEWS ARE SO LOUD AND SOUND LIKE A FUCKING BABY CRYING WHICH TRIGGERS A PRIMAL PARENTAL THING IN#ME AND HES MANIPULATING THAT TO GET MY ATTENTION FOR SHIT HE DOESNT NEED HHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH#LIke. im problematic in some ways. no im not as problematic as you might think but like. i still recognize i got a lot of shit to work on#over here yaknow. its shit i think about all the time and keep trying to figure out what i can do about.#which is also why i dont need ppl riding on my ass about shit that i already know better about#i honestly think yall think me being inflammatory online makes me a bad person... idk. and i dont really think im all that controversial#or inflammatory in what i say but anyone being that in any capacity in your opinion makes them Bad for some reason?? idrk.#im trying to figure it out. like you either just have to believe any lie someone tells about me or you just hate how annoying i am to you#on the internet. something you can easily avoid by blocking me.#also the things i say online... dont necessarily directly translate to offline? im not really like this irl... im definitely a lot more#aggressive online than i am off...#offline i try to keep things calm and gentle and i try to be considerate and nice to those around me. ig i dont feel like tumblr#has earned that side of me yet š¤·#i literally have an idyllic ass garden and essentially green house ok. i dont talk about the happenings of my daily life on here#much bc i worry talking about it on here will taint it somehow.#maybe im too superstitious. maybe im worried about being stalked. maybe its a combo of many things but theres certain info#i dont trust with certain types of people and if tumblr was a person i would not trust that person with that info.#the friend to get drunk with not to watch your cats and house while you're out of town. etc.#ill vent about my trauma but i dont want you... in my life... Like That lmao. we just go to the same bar...

the survey stops counting age at 45 and most of the responses are from tumblr. theres people above 40 who use this site but this survey was not advertised specifically to people who still fall into the 30-45 age range, or older, as far as I can tell. the survey op states the survey will skew to a younger demographic (link).
genuinely cant find any posts from their blog compiling what % of people found the survey through what site/source.
to reiterate biknuckles' point its incredibly shitty to state "the groups who donāt prefer itās use as an umbrella term are straight people, exclusionists, transmeds, truscums, sex-negative people, and sex work critical people"
when there are still people in other groups who do not prefer its use and their numbers are not included in this paragraph, painting everyone who doesn't prefer it as a bigot.
I'm also not finding posts on if they compiled the answers to "Regarding the term "queer" specifically, do you consider it to be an acceptable umbrella term?", in which the answers were "yes", "yes but only for people who specifically identify as queer, not for the community as a whole", "no", and "null". only posts regarding "x amount found the term as an acceptable umbrella term".
Friendly reminder that LGBTQ+, Queer, and LGBT+ are the preferred terms for the community (x).
Friendly reminder that Queer is approved by 72.9% of the people, and the groups who donāt prefer itās use as an umbrella term are straight people, exclusionists, transmeds, truscums, sex-negative people, and sex work critical people (x).
Friendly reminder that aros and aces are excluded only 9.2% / 8.1% of the time respectively while being includedĀ 78.9% / 81.2% of the time (x)
Friendly reminder that exclusionists are in the minority and aro/ace people are included in the LGBTQ+ community by the people within the community.
#sorry to reblog this like 2 yr old reply but its SO disingenuous to say ''this study represents the lgbt community'' or anything along those#lines when most of the responses are from tumblr and the conductor of the survey is making statements like the ones linked.#like people can say 'I dont like the q slur because it upsets me but I support other people who use it' and theyre still called terfs#and exclusionists (a term that is incredibly vague unless whats being excluded is specified) and radfems or whatever.#also obligatory disclaimer: I dont want to be called the q slur but I support people who identify with it. I dont have issues with that.#plus I think the second paragraph's link was from when the survey had 2k responses so its not even the 4.5k of now.#I think one of the biggest things is that often I see people who state 'its not a slur anymore' or 'its not used as a slur anymore' when#thats just. untrue. it was used in my hometown and to this day. Im a young person who is in their 20s but my age makes people disregard my#opinion as 'one of the baby gays poisoned by TERF rhetoric'. it sucks man.#also Ill be honest this tumblr blog sucks ass to find any information on the survey in a coherent way. I struggled to find information#I wanted and gave up eventually because it was too disordered. this is a personal opinion but the lack of a coherent way to find info sucks

Ok, the boss is no more! There were some super stressful moments but surprisingly we all survived o:
My animal companion got hit with disintegrate, but we had hero points to make him avoid it. I would cry actually, because disintegrate means no resurrection x_x
The war is prevented! At least this one, because Cayden's party is right at the center of a much bigger one just starting. Today we saved the country. Cayden is trying to not even save the whole world, just maybe slow the whole thing down and save as much people as possible...
#majek says shit#I have the diamond for a raise animal companion spell but it can only be used if you have a body and even then there are restrictions#and Kela wouldn't even know about it until after the fight because she got trapped between a wall of force and a stone golem?#or a stone Big Humanoid Fucker idk what that technically was but it would've killed me pretty fast#and it all was in an area of supernatural darkness emanating from the powergamer's character...#which interfered with so much of everyone else's actions and we even addressed it before the session that it's a bad idea to cast this#but its ok because HE will be able to see through it and HE won't be targeted easily:))))#he also almost ended the encounter in the first round of proper combat...#by using mechanics so outrageous but technically ambiguous enough that our GM can't deny them by using only RAW...#and he prefers to settle arguments by going as RAW as possible...#and it wasn't a problem until now when we have a player who exploits to an actually unbelievable extent#we shared our character sheets online yesterday and I finally saw his... still have no idea how the character works#because like half the stuff is custom and missing from the app#he has 9 AC in the app and allegedly 32 AC before buffs...#and the GM says the math checks out but 1. nobody saw that math besides him and 2. so far he trusted that player without too much questions#and only recently he actually realised he's been manipulated multiple times when me and some others started dismantling that players actions#I so hope this was the last session with that person#the worst thing is I think he's an ok guy when I'm not playing any kind of game with him#and I understand different people find enjoyment in different aspects of games - his being figuring out how far he can go with the rules#and there are whole groups of people who like to play like that and enjoy the challenge of making the most broken ābuildā possible#but the rest of the group are not that kind of people. maybe some like to have fun with researching what's possible#but it's never the purpose of the game and these things dont find their way into the actual game#I'm actually considering the possibility of just leaving the campaign if he stays there... I know I whine a lot in the tags#about different players that get on my nerves for various reasons. it sounds like I'm never happy about anything#but our group is big and we play together as a friend group in 4 different campaigns now (I'm in 3 of them)#and every one of these smaller groups has it's issues. sometimes it's the characters not matching and sometimes different expectations#or interpersonal stuff that can be worked out. this here is not a group composition issue because the powergaming attitude is everywhere#it's impossible to talk casually between sessions and confronting the guy leads to like actual temper tantrums#literally said āthe fuck do I care if the party dies I'm not gonna be useful anymoreā after the GM gave him feedback to maybe ease it up#he never says things like that when the gm or me are present but we still get info. he just can't be confronted by the gm like that

#anyways im still mad today but its not lingering in my head like it was yesterday#thank fucking god for that lmfao#the more i think about it the more i realize that theres really no reason to be that upset bc yeah it sucks to lose#someone so close to me like that but......she was not afraid to give me red flags even when we were in a good place#and tbh this felt like a huge neon sign screaming get out while you can#and if the other girls we were friends with want nothing to do with me after this i honestly really do not care#i didnt see them often anyways and the one is basically still a teenager who drove me nuts 95% of the time#and the other 2 dont get into drama at all so i doubt they feel any type of way about me considering neither of them are that kind of person#im more annoyed that she did this right before we had plans for one of the girls birthdays and i have a feeling thats not happening anymore#i keep wanting to ask if were still doing anything but i would actually rather die than see b so..........no thank you#even if they do say anything ive already made other plans for tomorrow so......oh well#i feel so much less insane when everyone says i didnt do anything and its scaring me that i keep thinking back to the time era she accused#me of saying shit during and im like ???? i dont remember saying that. did i say that?? did i say you shouldnt have had your kid and i just#dont remember??? did i say we hang out to escape him and i just dont remember???? and all i can think of is false memories and a situation#where someone else said those things to me in that same time period. anyways i dont know why anyone would remember that specific of wording#if it wasnt to just be used as ammo later. but i genuinely dont remember saying any of that shit esp not that recently?????#and b is ungodly great at gaslighting and she also takes shit at face value and doesnt seek further info if shes not doing okay#so im just.....yeah im taking this as my sign#and to eliza from february.....bitch did i say any of that because i do not fucking remember it#self
