In the last eight years or so -- which means it's not just COVID-related issues -- I've lost my favorite local coffee house, my favorite local bookstore, my favorite local quirky restaurant, AND my favorite local Irish pub with the 1916 Easter Rising mural, and now I'm about to lose my favorite local secondhand clothing shop. 😭
#pretty much all of them have to do with an inability to pay the sharply rising cost of rent in this area#the clothing store owner is an 80yo woman who never remembers me lmao but she's very nice and has excellent fashion taste#the bookstore employees actually wanted to collectively buy the business from the owner but the owner said no#because he also owned the building and thought he could make more by renting it out to another business#joke's on him the place has been empty for several years now since he killed his own bookstore SUCK MY DICK MOTHERFUCKER#not unrelatedly now that my dad has officially inherited the house from my late grandmother the county has reappraised the property#and we're anxiously waiting for confirmation of the annual tax to see if we can pay it :/ two attorneys have told us to expect#an increase of like 8-12k/year 😭 and yet california's democratic supermajority failed to pass rent caps 🤡💀#hound barks

adhd is such an unbearably frustrating way to live like i've been having issues with my bank account/card where i literally couldn't use my card for anything nor log into my online banking and it took me a week to remember to go to the bank to sort it out. every day i would go to use my card and get notifs that i was in overdraft and i couldnt fix it because i couldn't log into my bank account to transfer money between my accounts and every single time i would think 'i need to go to bank and sort this out' and immediately forget and then once i finally went to the bank and sorted my shit out i found out i still cant get into my online banking and this was 5 days ago and i've been meaning to call my bank every day so i can sort that out because my payments are still not going through and i still havent called the bank and i havent been able to actually use my bank account for like 2 weeks now and i'm just living like this because i keep fucking forgetting to do the basic task of contacting my bank. and every single practical day to day life maintenance thing is like this for me and no matter how many reminders i set or ask people to remind me to do something it still happens whether its for my bank stuff or literally any other task and its so fucking embarrassing
#so many situations like this have resulted in me losing hundreds of dollars just due to my inability to DO . THE TASK .#ive needed to send someone an invoice for a teaching job i did a month ago so they can pay me for it and i havent done that either!!!#was supposed to get blood work done 2 months ago and i keep forgetting to do it#screams and tears my hair out etc etc etc

Huh... just connected the dots between my soul-crushing shame and inability to imagine myself "carelessly having fun" without feeling a Heavy Judging Gaze That Thinks I'm Such A Funny Stupid Little Baby on myself and like... my parents finding it the funniest thing in the world, worth bringing up over and over despite my discomfort, that I used to bob funnily to the music as a toddler
#basically I seem to like... react v strongly to being told that my body and the way I use it is somehow inherently hilarious#there have been cases where people would take photos of me when I wasn't paying attention and was making a HILARIOUS pose#and they'd either show it to me or reupload them on group chats like look how fucking funny! and i'd go awhhh come on guys :< like u do#but internally i'd be like WHAT the fuck is wrong with me that i'm the only person getting this treatment#basically i just. seem to be inherently cringefail no matter what I do and instead of rolling with it like a normal person would i am inste#*instead very sensitive about being perceived as a funny pathetic moron. and i do imprint on similar characters which means I always#end up internally tormented when 99% of the fandom is pissing their pants laughing over how incredibly hilarious this wannabe cool#(but actually incurably pathetic) this (character I can relate to) is. its this like. inability of achieving physical dignity? okay this is#nothing but basically. the emotional anguish of being aware that you might think you're doing normal things and moving normally#but unbeknownst to you (and very well knownst to everyone else) you're wearing squeaky fish-shaped slippers with a long piece of#toilet paper trailing after each one AND slipping on banana peels at the same time#no matter if i dance silly style together with friends OR try to look cool and sexy there's this huge Eye constantly present at the back of#my mind that coos about how cute and funny i am half of the time. and laugh uproariously the other half#which is why: i don't dance + cover my mouth while smiling + happiness is for other people#shrimp thoughts#it's wild how fucked up brains can get. I'd love to have realized this like a decade earlier so that I could have a semblance of a chance#at maturing emotionally into something at least roughly resembling a functional adult but ohhhhhh welllllllllllll

will i get cancelled if i talk more explicitally about the captivating princess and incest undertones outside out of joke comments or-
its gothic okay
#im not even like personally super into that#i just think it overlaps with her and her inability to understand relationships#her weird occurance of watching her own conception to try and understand it#her obsessive dynamic with wanting a family member to be Like Her. whether that is her sister or her nephew. she becomes obsessive with it#her possessive behaviour towards her siblings even now. the way she lashes out at her brother for not paying attention to her#theres clearly A Lot of issues#and then yea of course the royal family incest jokes etc. etc.#the captivating princess#incest cw

#I hate that place for real
AMEN 🙏 i read through the comments under the article and i was like??? what are ya'll talking about obviously they would wait with a renewal decision depending on how well the new season does that's how the tv world has been working for the last 300 years. it is nice when sometimes tv shows get a renewal for 3 new seasons at once but that's absolutely not the norm. i mean the og's also got their renewal a few weeks into the new season being aired. and the people celebrating that lone star might be ending make me sick. being happy about other people potentially loosing something that makes them happy is a special kind of pathetic. you don't like something? honey it's alright you don't have to announce it to the world through hating people who do like it and instead just move on
yeah, I’m not sure why there being no comment on a renewal/cancellation means anything when it’s exactly what’s to be expected. sure, some shows announce more than one season ahead of time but lone star has never been that way. @reyesstrand did her homework and found when other renewals were announced. it has always been within a month before or after the season finale. we are four months away from the season 5 premiere. someone saying idk about season 6 when we haven’t even started season 5 is in no way news.
of course the show is expensive and it’s not out of the question, but idk nothing that got announced today is new information so I’m not sure why suddenly a bunch of people are acting like the show is done. yes I do, it’s because those are people who want it to be done. literally the only thing we learned so far is that lone star will be back on mondays lol
and yeah, people celebrating and cheering for the day lone star gets canceled... why? it’s gross and boring and lame to spend energy on something you don’t like and make people feel bad about enjoying it. I can't imagine having interests and things that make me happy, and then wishing for the downfall of that source of happiness for someone else.
#ask#people have the inability to think about anybody but themselves or their interests i fear#this is something they teach in what? kindergarten?? put yourself in someone else's shoes#saw something the other day about like ‘do you know who my least favorite show/movie/artist is?#no because normal people don’t talk about things they don’t like’#and..... YEAHAJDNAJ like if you don’t like the show then don’t watch it or pay attention to it#there’s no need to be a bitch about it

Sometimes it’s so tempting to bring out the school teacher voice and go, “Alright class, repeat after me. Just because [insert media here] isn’t what I wanted it to be doesn’t mean that [insert media here] is bad. So I’m not going to become a whiney little prick just because I didn’t get my way.”
sometimes you've gotta treat these people like the whiny, overgrown and worryingly illiterate children that they are
#rwb/y#saw someone try and defend the reboot idea because 'rwb/y doesn't have a story'#these people are so proud of their complete inability to pay attention#or form their own opinions

I don’t think Jiang Cheng and Lan Wangji have actually stonily ignored each other for 16 straight years since Wei Wuxian died. I think their relationship has ebbed and flowed and changed shape several times, and that they’ve reluctantly worked together in situations where they’ve realized “ugh, That Fucking Guy is the only other person in this room with the Correct Opinion,” and most importantly I think they have a huge argument every few years to keep the loathing fresh and alive.
They’ve actually put a lot of work into their relationship, but the work they’ve put in is purely to maintain as much animosity between them as possible. And that is why they seem so very divorced.
#the reason I made this post is Hm I bet at one point they had a huge argument about Sizhui#because I really. don’t think Jiang Cheng is dumb enough to not figure out who Sizhui is#and he must have gone to Wangji like ‘you can’t just raise That baby in the cloud recesses are you fuckign crazy?’#and Wangji is like ‘hmm well. i can and I will. actually.’#and Jiang Cheng tries to argue that it puts both Wangji and Sizhui in danger to do so#and then Wangji says something INCREDIBLY hurtful about Jiang Cheng’s inability to protect his OWN loved ones#and Jiang Cheng is like alright fuck you I was just trying to help but if we’re#*we’re playing THIS game then you’re just trying to protect this kid because you feel guilty you couldn’t protect Wei Wuxian#and then they each say a few more of the most hurtful things they can think of and then they try to kill each other#and maybe demolish part of an inn in Caiyi while they’re at it. SORRY! WE’LL PAY FOR THAT

Everytime someone compares Ultimate Mechamaru - Mode: Absolute to anything else but an Eva, I die a little inside.
#jjk#come on#the shape#the moves#the cables for the aesthetic#the noise it makes when it screams#also the fact that kokichi literally pays homage to the inability to connect with others eva has going on

COMPLETELY FORGOT ABOUT GIRL COde OMG
ok but unpopular opinion maybe it’s just the nuance of it but like if karina is over it and clearly didn’t even like him all that much to begin with would it rly be an issue way later on in the story since yn obv hates him too
the only times i ever rly thought girl code guy code whatever made sense was like if ur friend rly fw that person heavy and then things ended badly like why would u wanna pursue that yk… but if it’s just… they hardly even knew each other… OR ARE YOU FORESHADOWING…
—🪼
tbh idk if should reveal the plot much but whatever NO ITS NOT A VIOLATION OF GIRL CODE YOURE RIGHT and karina knows that but y/n doesn’t think so which is just gonna put her mind in conflict yk like she is gonna be so conflicted because she FEELS like she is doing smth wrong meanwhile karina truly dgaf like that girl would do anything for y/n hsjdkshdk
and yeahhh your example is a good case of girl code like omg if someone did that to me.. we just have to stop being friends 😭

It’s hard to make music when you have no instruments or software or skills or talent and also you don’t actually know how to play anything or make music and you’re dumb as hell
#hey it’s about that time of year where I get the urge again to try and make music before getting frustrated and quitting#don’t let your inability to do anything right get in the way of messing everything up forever and ever amen#every time I sit down to try and set up software and whatnot I end up wasting half a dozen hours before giving up#repeat once or twice every year or so for the last decade#how did I used to do this junk??? whaaaaa? I don’t understand computers.#I have an ooooold laptop buried in a box someone with sooo many unfinished songs. albums and albums worth. mostly just missing vocals#I used to sit and work on music for hours and hours#pretty much the only productive thing I did my first year of college was make an album#and now I’m just like… I don’t understand how anything works. I’m so old.#but I guess it’s… ya know… it’s been awhile and you can’t just expect to jump back in with the same skill and comfort#you’ve got get all the tedious beginning stuff out of the way. that’s just how it goes. it builds and builds.#it’s the opposite of eating an elephant. it’s frankensteining and elephant. gotta do it piece by piece.#basically I got another hand me down laptop. clean slate freshly wiped.#then I spent about 5 hours just setting it up and thennnnnn getting a bad virus bc I’m stupid as hell and don’t want to pay for software#I lost my software installer I already had so I rushed to 🏴☠️ the first decent one I could find#and then when I got warnings I said ‘meh the antivirus is probably exaggerating’#ARE YOU KIDDING ME!? ARE YOU STUPID!? you trust the illegal file over your own antivirus!? whatttt!?#i am very stupid#at least the laptop is pretty much empty. just gonna do another clean wipe and start again. hopefully smarter.#I really want this. I hate HATE talking about things I want to do because I invariable always fuck it up#it’s so stupid and sad but if pressed I would easily say my old shitty music are the things I’m most proud of in my life. even if they suck#I stopped making music when I moved to NY to be with my ex and I haven’t been able to get back into it since#I don’t even like music. it’s stupid and I’m half deaf. fuck you I hate you.#okay I love you bye#you can ignore this#text

Honestly I think that an old vampire learning that bio essentialism isn’t real and thus needing to dismantle their own sexism that they’ve used to excuse their own predatory behavior could be great
ive got mixed feelings abt the concept from a storytelling perspective bc like while that is the place i feel like smeyer is writing from irl within the context of like the story itself they are still vampires and the conflict between the vampire characters better nature vs their more animal thirst for blood is still like thee essential vampire narrative conflict, and to remove it entirely or reduce it to something that a character can just educate themselves out of feels sorta meh to me.
like i feel like a trans take on twilight should still have edwards bloodthirsty urges as an aspect of vampirism, because otherwise its an even more boring placid version of the vampire mythos than what were already working from here. my sorta analysis has more to do with the disharmony and shame edward feels towards his desires and how thats like intensified by the physical state of his body.
a trans edward deconstructing their views on gender roles and giving themself permission to change their presentation could certainly help with that disharmony, but its not going to remove the fact that they are a creature that derives life from death, a carnivorous animal of a kind, it just might make it easier to recall thats not all they are.
#ask#and tbh i dont think edward in the text is like as dangerous or predatory as he makes himself out to be#part of thats a writing issue. smeyer pays a lotta lip service to the idea of him being a coldblooded killer trying to change but hes just.#not.#his worst canonical behavior is like a destructive inability to communicate a pretty possessive very juvenile approach to relationships#in general and like weird intimacy issues and preoccupations with purity that draw a lot from the authors mormonism but are also just kinda#hallmarks of this sort of ya romance. especially at the time#a hearty sprinkling of Gender will not fix the bloodlust but it might perhaps get her ass to stop being so fucking weird about basic shit#we can only hope

I love the fact that I can work as hard as I can manage with a broken tooth and a dying tooth (one on each side, I've been chewing on the cavity for a year) and I still cannot save even $10 towards getting dental treatment (2 impacted wisdom teeth, + tooth broken off under the gum, + bad cavity) because I barely make enough to cover my food and board and the insane energy bill
#I'm just ranting don't mind me it's fine I am continuing to exist as usual I may delete this later bc it's a bit of a bummer to read#I prefer to keep my blogging to fun or otherwise nonserious content because it's supposed to be for decompression no real world drama here#I got into a 3 hour body language study and earned $50 so I spent that as fun money on a couple games during the Steam sale just to#take a break from the constant cycle of getting paid and then immediately saying goodbye to all but about 15 cents#(well it was 1 game Slime Rancher 2 and then 2 expansion packs one for Planet Zoo and another for Cities Skylines long play hours mileage)#I've tried to budget to buy small things like a fan or a toothbrush maybe (mine is 8yrs old and doesn't charge sometimes) but NOPE#let alone stashing away over $2000 for the amount of treatment I need given tooth extractions are $200-$500 each#I use about $50 of groceries a week ($30 USD) sometimes up to $80 if I need to buy some extra toiletries or bonuses like ham/falafel/bread#our last quarterly power bill was $1900 FOR NO REASON even for a winter one#olessan oration#the work I have is HIT/mturk type work which pays amazingly well and I am so grateful because I can't work in a traditional environment due#my inability to sleep/wake on anyone else's schedule and need for engaging work but it also means each worker is basically a contract worke#picking their own hours which is VERY HARD to stick to for me since I may also have ADHD-i but that diagnosis also costs like $2000 in Aus#so I'm doing my best fucking lmao#I have a set minimum hours I want to keep up to and move to full time but I am so exhausted by the constant background noise of#the tooth problems that I burn out very quickly#like the tooth ache isn't that bad#the tooth is actively dying but the pain isn't unbearable it just shits me off at all times#it's bearable most of the time and doesn't affect my sleep unless the temp is cold or something#it's been bad this week tho so I've gone through almost all my ibuprofen managing it#the tooth that broke off broke off earlier in the year and the gum has mostly healed over and the dead root is concealed inside my gums now#that stopped being painful in mid 2021 but when it died it was pretty bad it did stop me sleeping for a couple weeks#Christmas 2021 involved me contemplating ripping the tooth out myself lmao#the nerve eventually died seemingly without an abscess#unless I DID have an abscess but that seems extremely unlikely because abscesses are SEVERE AND HORRIBLE AND LIFE THREATENING#sometimes I can feel the tooth ligament wiggling on its own or I like flex it by accident it's so weird bc the tooth is gone so#the ligament is still holding onto the root but with way less weight#anyway I am eating my mac n cheese n veg with the side that has the missing tooth because the cavity tooth has a big bruise along the gumli#gumline which may be from overzealous brushing (I fill the tooth will temporarily filling putty and it needs to be cleaned well when the#putty falls out)
