I miss when my meds were a higher dose. I might have spent most my days in bed nauseated, but at least I wasn't spending 1 out of every 4 weeks wanting to kill activly myself :/

the small indie artist from the UK is touring the US as an opener for a larger artist but not in Colorado and she's posting on Instagram about her tour and I can't go and that makes me so sad.

Anyway PLEASE if you like soft rock go check out Katie Malco her music is amazing and I need her to get super famous so she plays in Colorado instead of just the east/west coast T-T.

you all have shown me great kindness in the past, and i'm afraid i must ask for that kindness again. i'm just over here trying to afford rent and insurance but apparently every time i think my head's above water something has to happen. i need to go get my brakes checked out after the weekend and you know how that goes.

anyway if you have a few spare bucks laying around, would you consider buying me a coffee or dropping some cash directly into my paypal? (a reminder that ko-fi charges for goods and services, paypal you can choose friends and family with no service charge. up to you, however.)

as always, i also do copy editing/proofreading (can provide credentials if interested) and will do so on the cheap if you have an essay or something that needs another eye. i might also be able to do some beta reading for tips (SPAG and general continuity only if i’m unfamiliar with the fandom). Just ask and I’ll let you know if what you’ve got is in my wheelhouse.

since i'm apparently in a gif-making mood i can also take gif requests for tips though lord knows i cannot guarantee any sort of quality where that's concerned lol.

thanks as ever for reading <3

so i have never in my life paid off my student loans and i've just been in debt this whole time and my loans got shunted off to default because lol i don't have any money!!

i'm v ignorant about this whole process and when i got emails about getting out of default with possible payments of $0 i was like oh sure why not it can't be good for me that my loans are just stagnating on my record like that

so anyways i still need to apply for the income-directed repayment plan and i'm like 75% confident everything will be all right but i still technically have an $80 payment due by the 21st that yes i *did* consider kms over from guilt at Accruing An Expense I Cannot Personally Afford and i just wanted to vent about it here lol hi
