#I can’t afford to live on my own

[spookykestrel]

The worst part about not going to college is there not being an easy time to move out

[halfelven]

reading other people’s ma theses and getting irrationally jealous of their dedication sections where they list all the people who emotionally or financially or physically (as in doing cooking and such? what is that called) supported them through their work and didn’t let them give up

How do people with executive dysfunction take pills at a consistent time every day? I can have my phone scream at me that I need to take my pills, and my body will still be like “but…no…”

the mental health is not mental healthing right now

Loss for words

I don’t like war, though

It feels inevitable

A paradox of lies and cheaters in silk robes

And though enemy territory is still miles away

I can feel their soil under my feet

As they dance in circles around trees

I’ve seen my sisters do the same

Why does it have to be a competition

To see who can be more dead

Why am I the one that has to live through history

Why can’t it be my grandparents

They’re much more suited for the scandal

They can pay what I cannot

My soul is not prepared for branding

What does it mean to be nineteen and hated

Why am I the one that has to fear for my life

We’re all next no matter what we do

Even when we win we loose

What does it mean to live while dying

Why can I not see the future

We’re fighting against iron walls

But all were given wooden clubs

What does it mean to be young now

Why do the old get to dictate what I do

Poetry and literature and blood and air

I don’t want to fight for my hands and feet

What does it mean to be a soldier

Young heads pounding through streets

They take away what we want

Then they’ll take away what we need

What does it mean to be a target

And why does it have to be now

The billionaires will keep getting richer

Until they burn everything down

BABY WATCH 2024!

First 24 hours with the new kitten. Thought it was a she, but did a closer inspection earlier and I’m leaning towards a he.

Anyway, the good stuff: he is the sweetest, most well behaved kitten I have ever seen. He’s an angel. He spent most of last night sleeping on my chest. I haven’t had such an actively affectionate cat in ages. The two I have now are sweet, but they don’t really cuddle. This little dude does. This little dude is awesome. He follows me around, doesn’t get into things he’s not supposed to, and instantly knew how to use a litter box. If he wasn’t so young, I’d think he was an abandoned indoor cat. But he’s baby. My baby. Still needs a name, though.

The not so good stuff: I DO NOT need another cat! I live in a small apartment with two other adult cats and a small dog. New cats are also expensive! He’s gonna need shots and to get fixed and, to be painfully honest, I really don’t know if I can afford that now. Shit, I’m basically out of (human) food until I can get some cash on friday. It’s rough. I’m really anxious. I love this little guy. I didn’t just pick a random kitten. I’d seen him outside a couple of times and I just… I hated the idea of this way too trusting little guy trying to survive out in the world. He just kept crying out at me and following me. There are other stray cats around, but this one is so small and so sweet and he followed me home and he loves me so much I literally started crying while holding him bc I didn’t want him to ever have to fight just to survive out there. I hate it. I mean, I love him, but it does make me feel kind of sick inside bc I know it’s not exactly a smart decision to take in a stray right now. Life sucks. He’s curled up next to me in bed now and if he wasn’t so tiny and sweet and wonderful, I might be okay not keeping him & letting him stay outside with his friends. I’m glad he’s not a human baby or I’d really be freaking out right now.

Anyway, I’d die for him now so it’s a done deal. My baby now.

ohh i get it. we’re meant to fail under the system

[flowercrowngods]

i just feel like it really tracks that i should be ending this year needing to find a new job, a new apartment, and strength enough to live alone

[kihteyu]

Anytime I mention how expensive rent is the answer is always “just get a roommate” but it’s a BAD answer

Idk I just don’t think being forced to have roommates at 25+ should become the standard. We, as adults, shouldn’t have to live with strangers our whole lives just to survive

[thegoblinpit]

Me? Trust the government?

[cavillary]

so I need to go on anxiety meds bc I can’t continue to have panic attacks at work, but I can’t drink alcohol on meds and i’ll lose the ability to have an orgasm.

AND until my body gets used to the meds (my doc wants to try lexapro bc of my anxiety and depression), there’s a high chance it’ll increase my anxiety levels, brain fog, issues i’m already having.

I have no idea wtf i’m supposed to do 😩

[idolsgf]

we found a place we really like but of course an offer has already been put in 😖

[minty-muse]

If anyone would like to be roommates™️ it would literally save my life right now
