im a little over a year into my new desk job. and it is crazy to me that the most dread i ever feel (job related atleast) is oooo bed toasty warm i dont wanna get up. like. i have not had job related suicidal ideation in a year. thats crazy to me. especially with how frequent it was at my old job. i still have nightmares about my past jobs. i havn't shaken my retail voice yet (which confused my coworkers when i switched from that to regular voice after i got comfortable around them). and its just so wild looking back now how working retail just effects your brain. like there has got to be studies done on this cause what the fuck was all that

#cryp txt #i love my new job and i think a huge part of it #is cause its a nonprofit #so we arent trying to suck shareholder cock we are just strictly trying to help people #im not trying to hit an imaginary ever growing number #ill be honest i took a paycut when i went to this job #and its made bills really fucking tight #but i would not trade that for the world #it is 100 percent worth not driving home and considering drifting into the other lane of traffic #its worth the fact that when i got suddenly very sick i was able to call my boss and she told me not to worry and that theyd cover my post #unlike when i had a ruptured ear drum and couldnt hear and still had to solo run a 10 hour shift #or when i had covid and still had to work the weekend while downing a full container of cough syrup #ugh sorry im working on getting a therapist so i dont have to ramble about all this here #but im just thinking thoughts and having feelings

I get so so so jealous whenever I read fics about the marauders having fun at school

Like what’s that like??? I wouldn’t know 😞

Experiencing great friendships, partys, and running around without fear of how much you’ll be able to do the next morning. I wonder what that’s like.

Maybe if I wasn’t autistic or ill and I had a good friend group I’d still be in school but!!! I guess I can’t have everything 🙁 talking like I even liked school in the first place (I didn’t) I’m glad I left but the marauders friendgroup opportunities 💔

#either the state of the CK fandom is really that bad or i have really blocked that many people #its so interesting to see it grow from the s3 covid boom #post s3 most of us were knew so we were learning the lore together. we were going through the stages of #“surface level fandom for shipping purposes” to “backed by canon” together #to see people come in becaue The Ship (which was also why i came in)#and be charmed by the fandom portrayel of them. then watch the show and realize how disengaged it is.#we've all been there.#like surface level shippers will always exist but the teat is if its 6 months later and theyve become oddly attached #to an obscure side character that has no last name. who has entire meta commentaries #watson vs doylist style #the layers of meta of it all ...#also usually you find another ship that is much less popular but scratches your brain in such a particular way that it outshines the og mvp #and then you look back on it all like a fond lover. before going back to drafting you johnjoshhayden hate mail #and there's the inevitable boom of new fans after each season that come and go but #there are still a few of the old guard. “i was there gandolf” and you pass each other on the dash #world weary and smoking a cigarette. as the same conversations are had once again.#anyways its always wild to see daniel/sam/Ralph/mary hate at this point in time. in this economy?#not like “i disagree with their actions here” but like “they suck ass and are so mean and they bullied me personally irl i have proof ”#you know the kind where the only way to reach that conclusion you have to have a fundamental misunderstanding of the movies the characters #and also just like. human interaction itself?#bullying? in the “bullying is bad” movie fandom? *pointed look*#i rogot entirely where i was going with this rip

I think tumblr is better at talking about the severity of Covid than a lot of platforms, but the posts I see on here do a terrible job at highlighting that you can do everything right and *still get it*. And I don't say that to be a pessimist, but because it can be incredibly invalidating for people who have been masking, up-to-date on boosters, etc. and got Covid bc even though we did everything we could, it still feels like our fault that we had it. So if that describes your experiences with Covid I just wanna say I see you, I feel you, and you are not alone

#while the physical parts of Covid sucked it destroyed my mental health worse than all of it #in part bc of that rhetoric #it left me with the sentiment that I was suffering because it was my fault #even tho I still wear masks everywhere I go and got the booster last month #and yeah you could say that a post telling you to do these things doesn't apply to you if you already are #it still has that underlying stigmatization that Covid is at the blame of the person who contracts it #tracking tag #rambling #current events

Crafting/vaccine side effects update: I am still not up for crafting but oh my gosh I feel so much better than I expected to! I did have a POTS flareup but my blood pressure never got below 100/60, so like it barely counts. I mean, the tachycardia was worse, but even that was nowhere near what it's been previous times I got the booster shots, and it's mostly resolved itself within like 24 hours of getting the shot instead of like three days. I'm still operating at a deficit of water and salt but I'm working on it bit by bit, and I was skeptical when my doc said I wouldn't need an extra dose of my salt-go-up pills* but he was right! Anyway point is no crafting updates today but there might actually be crafting updates tomorrow, which I did not expect to be saying *fludrocortisone! It helps me retain salt in a way almost approaching the normal human way of processing salt

#the person behind the yarn #the chills sucked and I barely got any sleep because I kept waking up every 20-30 minutes #but I took today off work and have had some long naps and am feeling a lot better #like. on an average day this would count as feeling pretty crummy #but for a day post-vaccine this is EXCELLENT oh my gosh #I did have to scoot and/or crawl around on the floor instead of walk this morning #but that was because when I stood up my heart rate got high enough to make me a little nauseous #not because my blood pressure was low enough to be a fall risk (like it has been every previous vaccine)#and that resolved itself by like midmorning at the latest. I was able to go downstairs and climb back upstairs at almost normal speed!#and like...between tachycardia nausea and low bp nausea low bp nausea is so much worse. so this was not bad #I know it sounds bad but like prior to today the least worst covid booster I got was the one last year #and last year my bp was so low and my heart rate so high that I had to be pushed in a wheelchair between the couch and the bathroom #because I could not walk without falling. and today I can!! I was able to eat normal food today instead of just plain rice and saltines!#HUGE improvement. I'm going to have to make more coasters for my doctor's office

In a bad ME/CFS crash rn — hard to get out of bed to get food, sit up to eat and drink, etc. It’s been worse in general lately, that’s why I’m not posting much and it’s a lot of fundraisers (same amount of those as usual I think but less other stuff between). Sorry.

#my post #personal #long covid #me/cfs #disabled #disability #today sucked so bad lol

Feel like I have enough time and energy on any given day for two of: work; the labor I have to do outside of work without which my and others' lives will fall apart; and the logistical and emotional labor required to enable Experiencing Joy. And I've spent the last month or so having which two picked for me with way more consistency than I really want.

#complaining #partly just about life and deadlines and etc #but I also have deep feelings about how many milestones of my adult life have been crushed under the weight of external circumstances #because [covid/post-graduation scattering/my queerness/etc] meant the good parts of them didn't happen #and I will admit I get bitter and kind of suck at making my own good parts #bc it's just Something Else I Have To Do

proud of myself

feel like I shouldn't be proud of this; but I am. I feel I shouldn't because it's just normal people stuff to do in the world...

goes to show how I've let anxiety have a chokehold on me for quite a good chunk of my life.

the hang up was just my vision and that the shop had remodeled so there wasn't the signs stating what's there on the windows for the ingredients. as I've stated many other times, I'm legally blind. Left eye has some vision that's very bad, right eye has none and is scar tissue. idk if that's relevant to the post at all tho...

glad anxiety didn't kick me during this today~~ that was kind of nice. cute little sandwich shop~~

Ordered my own sandwich at a sandwich shop~~!! and even got brave enough to ask about a couple cookies. still unfortunately said sorry a lot during tho...

vegetarian sandwich on cheese and herb bread with a garlic aioli. was really good~~~ spinach got wilted a bit and not crisp... but was good regardless~~

didn't realize it at the time but I guess the pandemic years affected everyone huh? I went from walking to the park in town, and to the convenience store alone, to, not going outside unless it was to my siblings place or to appointments, go shopping, take garbage out, get mail... and that was it...

Now I wish my anxiety would chill out enough for me to start walking to the park and around town again.

the "nothing changed" thing I thought of about covid in that my lifestyle hadn't changed, was in fact, incorrect. It had changed, I just hadn't noticed it until it bit me in the ass.

I still mask; I still will continue to wear masks, cause even if you aren't sick, it could prevent germs you have from getting anyone else sick. It's the polite thing to do at this point given we've been doing it for 4 years now. imo covid still exists, it's still mutating, we still need to be careful about it.

tl;dr, day with the family, ordered my own sandwich~~!! today was a good day~~ suck it anxiety~~!! we got a tasty sandwich cause you didn't get in the way~~!! wooooooo~~!!!

sleeping patterns still very weird now~~ i go to bed~~~

Day 25 and 26 of Sharktember: Sun and Moon sharks.

Real talk, these were some of the first sharks I painted after catching COVID and I was so out of it I accidentally forgot which character was which while painting. It definitely gives them a different feel than I was originally planning when 25 was the moon/26 was the sun and I'm not mad at it.

I am however glad to be on the mend enough to NOT make these mistakes going forward but that's neither here nor there.

#sharks #sharktember #watercolor #daily drawing #playing catch up on posting the last of these and then it's on to inktober!#also covid sucks: understatement of the century
