I would feel bad for the mice that get caught in my traps if it were not for the fact that I have now killed 3 in the span of 2 hours to the same trap. I feel like if you keep sending members of your family out to forage for food and they keep going "ooo! Yummy peanut butter :)" to the same very obvious trap in the same location, at some point that's kind of on you.
So now my reaction to walking into the room and seeing the exact same trap with yet another mouse inside is "...idiot" instead of "poor thing".
#I say this but they figured out the basic snap trap so I had to buy the plastic kind with the easier to trip trigger#It's just that they got bold because they figured out how to lick the peanut butter without getting snapped#So now I have a bunch of traps that have a full trigger plate instead of a single trigger point#They step on the trap literally at all and it snaps#And the bait cup is deeper inside so they almost *have* to step on it to access it#Anyway I can't put out poison bc it's bad for the environment and also dangerous to the dogs#And I can't afford the electric traps#So snap traps it is#I was getting frustrated bc I kept finding evidence of mice but never actually catching them#And I remembered when I realized my rental house had mice these plastic ones were significantly more successful at catches#I actually really like mice and all rodents but wild ones spread disease and ruin food so I kind of have to#Especially if they start chewing on my wires

For real tho health freaks who scream about how sugar and salt will kill us all and try to push for restrictions on things like candy and chips for SNAP recipients or politicians who try from time to time to replace food stamps all together and give out Government Approved Staples like bread and peanut butter and Government Cheese are gonna kill a whole lotta sick and disabled people like
Diabetics
POTS sufferers
Hypotensives
People with peanut allergies
People with celiac disease or wheat allergies
The lactose intolerant
People who can't eat solid food
People who are undernourished for any reason and need all the calories they can pack on
So-called "picky eaters" who can't tolerate certain tastes and textures without getting violently ill
A myriad of other human conditions that cannot be neatly tallied into categories because the human body and human experience is vast and infinitely variable
But I don't think ableds really care about us and our health like they like to claim so they can harass us about it, do you?
#tag yourself I'm five out of ten#health food is gonna kill me one day i swear to God#vasovagal syncope/POTS was actually a fun disease to have since the treatment is honestly junk food#to get my sugar and sodium levels up quickly so i don't pass out#but then the United States government in their infinite compassion slashed my food stamps in half#and now i can't afford 'luxeries' like enough chips and candy i need to not faint and concuss myself. again#add the celiac and to a lesser extent the lactose intolerancy and now two fruit allergies...#and I'm paying three times the amount for like fifteen food items and that is accounting for the food inflation even ableds are facing#whatever food shortages ableds are going thru right now i swear to you it's much much worse if you're sick/disabled#stop policing what food people buy with the money their given i don't care if it's a paycheck or welfare#SOMETIMES I'll get a pitiful and defensive 'well how was i supposed to know?!' when i confront people bugging me about this#you don't know so shut your trap about it in the first place#most people just ignore the reason and accuse me of making up excuses to eat 'unhealthy' foods tho#health nut#ableism#systemic ableism#food#Salt blessed Salt

let Spoon enjoy the walmart halloween section the other day while i was there to pick up a prescription. loved these items but Spoon reminds us all to "support small artists!" these were all crafts and the BOO sign in particular were really poorly made.
#loved the eyeball wreath though#makes me wonder if they stole the idea#they probably did!#if anyone seeing this happens to know of a small artist who makes halloween decor similar to this lmk#i prob can't afford it but who knows! i wanna at least follow them on socials if they have any#i could search eyeball wreath on etsy but i dont feel like it hahahahah#besides i really cant afford it lmao. maybe one day!#i aint buying walmart's crap#how cute is it for my furby photoshoot though hehehehehe <3#halloween posting#my furby#s.p.o.o.n.#furby fandom#furby adventures#furby community#furblr#furby#furbies#halloween decor#halloween

Young odysseus convincing everyone Ithaca is nothing but a poor island with rocks and goats to avoid any raids/conquerors/so he doesn't get murdered for talking to Helen bc "it's not like he's a real choice"
Young odysseus falling in love with Penelope at the same event: wait. Wait shit I fucked up hold on just hear me out
#the odyssey#Odysseus#Penelope#Pre-canon(?)#odypen#Odypen meet ulgy#When the cute “bumpkin” boy wants to marry you but only brought 3 goats for your cousins gifts#AND you caught him spying on your family#There's like a single line in the odyssey where I think some god is narratoring (not 100% sure)#And they have a well actually interjection moment to explain how Ithaca isn't just one island it actually has a shit ton of land#And is technically richer then every other country#Which honestly just makes it funnier that odysseus was like welp time to beg again with zero issues for 10 years#But it will never not be funny to me that young odysseus really shot himself in the foot with Penelopes family for the start#Like clearly it worked out but I bet Penelope father HATES him#Listen odysseus showed up to Helen's courting for the drama ONLY he never planned on marrying her#Bc he knew her husband would be murdered immediately#My man showed up for the drama and stayed for Penelope#Otp#I love them#And need more of these two being rat bastards to each other and LOVING it#Listen neither one of them has let a single thing go in their whole life and they like that about the other#Odysseus going to buy anything for his wife ever#Penelope: Oh my can we afford that this is just a simple rock island with a few goats#Odysseus: dressed head to toe in very very rich cloth that his wife made#Ithaca with the fastest ships bc ody designed new ones#Penelope: literally dripping with jewels that were MAYBE stolen (shut up you can't prove anything and Penelope likes it when he's a bastard#Odysseus: you're so right my bad that was so irresponsible for getting you a gift. Perhaps your father would like to pay instead?

it's 4:40 am and I'm feeling like shit. trying to convince myself it's just because it's really late and I'm tired and should just sleep, but. I still feel like shit.
so I want to buy something. I want to feel like there's something I can do, something I can control, and buying something is so easy. plus I'll know I'll get a nice thing in the mail.
but we're working on this, so I can't order anything now (literally had to ask my husband to change my ebay password for me because I could not stop myself from buying things there), and it's making my brain so very very upset. it's the nice, easy, comfy thing that I can always do no matter how bad I'm feeling mentally or physically, and now I can't, and it feels very bad. :(
#.. which just makes it more important that I need to work on it#I need to get a job. then we could afford me being absolutely fucking stupid about this.#but rn I don't have one yet and I am so very scared of trying to find onr so no I can't buy useless shit that I don't need#life is too fucking hard someone please just murder me I can't do this#no it's fine it's fine it's always fine. if I can just sleep it'll be better tomorrow#then I'll sleep all day again and wake up and feel like shit because I wasted yet another day and#oh well.#life goes on. and on. and on.#I'm so tired#personal

next month me and my grandma are going to visit my godfather who lives in Spain, but instead of being excited (it's gonna be my second time abroad in my life) I'm anxious af, because even though I'm an adult I live with my parents and I need to tell my father about it. normal parents would - y'know - be happy that their children have opportunity to visit another country, but instead he's gonna be insufferable about it, because it's my mom's side of family and he despises my uncle. but what is he gonna do? kick me out of the house even though he promised that as long as I'm studying or working I don't need to worry about such thing, humiliate me as usual, tell me that I'm childish and spoiled or make my mom's life a living hell again? I'm aware of the fact that the longer I'm putting it off the worse his reaction is gonna be, but I'm just not mentally able to tell him that, because I don't know how he will react. I don't need any money from him, I don't have to use my phone during this trip (I dunno how the roaming and stuff work), I just want to be sure he's gonna behave like a proper human being towards my mom and my siblings when I won't be at home and not act like a total asshole while talking with me about it.
#i know that at my age i should be more mature and handle such situations better but as long as he's the way he is it's impossible#why can't both my parents be normal#and the fact that i wasn't able to get any summer job this year isn't making it any better because i know it's gonna be one of his argument#(czaicie to że nawet do żabki mnie nie chcieli. dosłownie emotional i brain damage)#'you didn't work so from where do you get the money for that'#don't worry definitely not from you because you can't even pay for my monthly train ticket to college#and at the same time have the audacity to call me dumb for commuting there instead of living in that city#while knowing that neither me nor mom can afford renting anything without your help#(okay i'm a bit exaggerating in my mom's case but she earns much less than him and he still makes problems with literally anything#even buying food even though he's in a very good financial situation and there are times when my mom has to make everything work all alone#because he's getting mad at her out of nowhere and only pays the bills that fortunately aren't that bad in our case)#(and unfortunately the bills include my telephone subscribtion because all of our numbers are in some kind of special offer where you pay#much less for one number when they're registered for one person so it's another problem in this situation because when i offered paying for#mine he refused and probably it'll be his another argument for becoming mad that i dare to spend time with the part of family that cares#about me unlike majority of his relatives)#i hope that at least when academic year starts i'll be able to get any part-time job on the weekends so i can save up more money#although i'm not sure if i'm gonna move out in the nearest future. i mean he's fucking insufferable and toxic but i just can't leave my mom#and especially siblings there even though i can't even fucking protect them from literally anything. at this point i'm just powerless.#there are times when he tries to change for the better but then he starts creating problems on purpose and everything is coming full circle#and the sole thought that my little siblings would tell me that i just ran away from this problem is fucking killing me.#niedziela wieczór i humor niegituwa. zawsze kurwa kurwa coś.#chuj idę słuchać myslovitz#pau.txt

#oh my fucking god stupid (mostly finnish) kids whining about the price of the silver BC pendant#ostakaa glitteristä saatana ne kiina-laatuiset massatuotantopikamuotirihkamakorunne??#minäkin haluaisin kattohuoneiston saunalla ja poreammeella ja vaatehuoneella mut ku eivät perkeleet tee mun hintaluokkaan sopivia semmosia#jännä vitun juttu!!!!!!!!#and they're being so fucking RUDE about it too like ?????? yeah you're disappointed but grow the fuck UP#sometimes some things are just out of your price range and it sucks yes#but the world does not revolve around you and there'll always be someone who can't afford even the cheapest of things#in a perfect world everything is afforadable/free for everyone and no one would ever charge any money for their services#i really appreciate that they chose to use an oulu-based manufacturer instead of some cheap shit that'll be thrown away soon bc it breaks#i can't see this band doing it any other way tbh#also it's SILVER!! that shit will actually last as long as you'll FUCKING LIVE#but yeah sure they should have gone for cheap metal ones that change colour over time and the chains will snap etc. etc.#also @ the comments saying ''i'd rather spend that amount of money on xyz'' WELL GO ON THEN!! DO IT!! WHAT'S STOPPING YOU#literally no one is forcing you to buy this jewellery we all have our priorities and principles helloooo#why do you gotta announce it in the comment section though? instead of just...shutting the fuck up maybe?#and no i did not buy the pendant myself

i don't understand how or why we went from "a dozen different boxsets with bts content, interviews, commentary and extended editions" to "we won't even release this as a dvd" but we lost so hard when it happened
#streamers are so fucking dumb for thinking people will pay them ransom forever for holding our favorite media hostage#when piracy is right there#even if i could afford 10 different streamers when i can barely afford one at a time#but again why would i when i can just go buy a bunch of dvds and make the boxsets myself#i can't believe we're going backwards but i still own a dvd drive so suck my dick i guess

god I really need a wheelchair so bad but my doctor said no because apparently when you use a mobility aid to help you leave the house more it's "giving up" but it's not giving up to stay inside and never doing anything because I'm in too much pain to walk, so now I'm too scared to ask any of my other doctors
#I would just buy one but I can't afford the kind I need#I just hope now that I'm closer to 30 they'll listen#I s2g the main joy of aging is as I get older doctors take me more seriously

I feel like it really shouldn't be unreasonable for 2 professional workers in their late twenties to feel like they should be able to afford a 2-bedroom apartment
#my bf and I both make pretty ok salaries#but not like Tech Worker salaries#and we still can barely afford to rent a one-bedroom apartment#let alone attempt to buy anything#i literally just want room for my piano keyboard and my books??#i feel like that's not a lot to ask#most of my books are at my parents' house because we literally have nowhere to put them#literally don't know how anyone is expected to afford kids#to adults working full time can't afford an apartment big enough for children#bootlickers are always like 'just get housemates!'#but I feel like when you're almost 30 you shouldn't HAVE to

if youre in the UK, can't afford to heat your home and are able to leave the house, you may already have heard of warm banks
if you haven't- they are public spaces where you can go to stay warm, almost always for free. I know that at least the ones in my local area are run by charities or churches, open go everyone for free and provide wifi, hot drinks and sometimes food free too.
If this is something you need, but you don't know where to find one, this is a map that tells you where the nearest ones to you are.
Please, stay as safe and warm as you can this winter. I love you
#if you can't leave the house but can afford £30 or so and can open the door for deliveries i really recommend buying an electric blanket#even if you can leave the house they are very helpful at night#and cost WAY less to run than the heating#we already owned one and we run it about 6 hours a day#if thats the only thing we use other than things that are always on like the fridge it only adds up to about £2.60 total#our heating costs us about 3 times that for an hour

#currently crying because I'm alone with my husband's 94 year old grandma and I'm the only one who ever lets her talk about certain topics#so she just talked about her childhood and youth for one and a half hours#which means. the war#I'm not gonna go into it but it makes me cry every time even though I've already heard it all before#how can you not cry about a child who lost two of her teenaged brothers and had to watch the third one very nearly die too#the stories about how careful they had to be because the police constantly went to every house and checked everything#how they had to hide some of the milk from their cows so they could make butter because they couldn't afford to buy it#and how dangerous that was.#idk I'm so tired of people dying over senseless and unnecessary shit forever and ever and nothing ever changes and no one ever seems#to learn from it#or at least the ones in power don't#as long as there's disposable people (men) to send to war it doesn't matter. and now that's not even necessary anymore you can just kill#people from far away and. I'm just tired#and I'll shut up now and not talk about these things again as usual. it's not because I don't care it's because it (literally) drives me#insane to think about it and I know it's weak and pathetic but I have to choose to stay just barely sane enough to stay alive#can't stop crying. 🙃#anyway. shouldn't talk about it so. bye
