i came back to the dorm and one of the turtles is straight up missing (...she's probably dead is my guess but i didn't wanna hit my roommate with that question during class yk) and the tank (which still contains a live turtle) is full of fucking BUBBLING algae my roommate's stuff was On My Bed the floor is. gross and roomie's cat's (pretty limited amount of) toys are nowhere to be seen (meaning he's attacking me and i have nothing to redirect him with) one of my baskets has been shredded and ??? one of my skirts (which was presumably hung up before i left) was found on the floor of my closet fucking dried stiff and stained both yellow AND glittery????? everything smells awful in a familiar way i can't quite identify and the floors are sticky in a bunch of places. what the FUCK is going on

#i don't have like a mop or anything! what am i gonna do sponge the floors down??#she said she doesn't remember if the closet was opened or closed but like. nothing i had in there could have done that to the skirt #(...probably? the only liquid i had in there was fucking. laundry detergent)#(and there's no evidence of that spilling or leaking)#im trying to figure out how reasonable it'd be to like. confront my roommate about this #she's got a lot going on and i am Not the kind of person who's gonna give her shit for some mess #but it was actually ridiculous this time #she was staying in the dorm over winter break and i wasn't. for context #side note but rascal has Another new bed? he doesn't even care about beds very much WHERE ARE HIS TOYS. HELP ME? PLEASE?#im so tired pls it's the FIRST DAY BACK #god im not smart enough for this. i asked her and she said she doesn't pay attention to whether or not my closet door #is closed and like fair ig but smth about it is off to me bc like How Else Would It Have Gotten Like That #im confident it was closed when i came in and it was almost certainly closed when i left like 5 weeks ago #but im. really not good at assessing whether or not ppl are lying to me. like idk maybe it was some kind of mysterious leak #or i hung it up to dry and it fell and dried weird (idr if it was wet or not when i left)#my own distrust of her for how she treats her animals AND my sympathy for struggling with caring for animals #in the midst of burnout/a very demanding life are at odds and both are biasing me in opposite directions #well anyway i can't unpack a lot of my stuff bc im just. confounded by it #i'll clean the floor over there later i just can't right now im too out of it #also rascal has been very sweet too he's just Extremely pent up over the whole 'small room with Literally Nothing to do all day' life he has #truthfully he smells/his fur feels kinda weird too but it might just be bc ive been gone for a bit #bc i feel like i remember that from last time too #i could forgive a lot of these things individually but all of them at once? man.#another entry in 'is she depressed or just not very considerate?'#(<- she's never mentioned anything approaching depression/etc i just can't imagine.. not being depressed)#but the turtle thing is the worst bc like. how do i even bring that up. i don't wanna reopen that wound yk #and while there's a bit of 'see i told you' going on she probably feels bad enough already right. maybe #but she also doesn't know Shit about how to care for turtles and ignored my warnings. that turtle was sick for months #and vets are expensive but she'll spend money on these high end shoes as they drop and then act too broke to get a $10 heat bulb. whatever #idk. i should've pushed her harder. it hasn't really sunken in yet but it's my fault too. guh
