me: wow, i have finally seen with my own eyes a piece by Monet! i cant wait to share on insta with my friends and fam. hes one of my favs, im sure insta will show my pic of it with me in all its natural glory

insta: crumples it like paper

me: i understand now. the artist's struggle. the desire to post pictures and art on instagram to share with the world only for it to crush your hopes and passions into dust to where not even mere letters are visible. the artist must live with the knowledge that a place dedicated to sharing their creation pushes the resolution of the final piece to the point of despair. what agony

I finally switched cell phone providers so I can get on a plan my company pays for. and literally fifteen min after swapping sim cards, all these garbage game apps start downloading onto my phone. so I looked it up on reddit forums and apparently this is a thing now on all the major carriers? Ive used the same cell provider for 20 years so I guess I was never exposed to this particular brand of bullshit. anyway I hate excessive advertising I hate having stupid shit shoved in my face I hate that these companies are allowed to pull this bullsht

prepared stuff for my childhood friend's birthday since it's been a full year since he died & just tumbled into a comedy of errors. got the wrong date. cookie place mixed up the orders so i Did Not receive birthday cookies. streetlights were so bright that you couldn't really see his star we bought him. but it hit midnight and i Still burst into tears thinking abt how funny he would've thought the whole thing was. this man would've laughed at me for twenty minutes, eaten all the cookies anyway, and then beat my ass at smash bros as an early birthday celebration. i miss him so much

daylight savings adjustment protip: just have a sleep schedule so preposterously fucked that you literally do not notice until your mom brings it up in conversation more than a full day later.

The person who signed me up for my online course misspelled my last name even though I always spell it out to people because for some reason literally NOBODY knows how to fucking spell it so student services sent me an email and called me to tell me I need to send over some valid ID because they can't just... trust that I know how to spell my own fucking last name idk I can't believe I'm paying actual money for this what a fucking waste

So this chick has been on-and-off again stalking me since high school. I could go into paragraphs of detail (I was about to), but no one wants to read all of that. Suffice to say, I guess she’s had some kind of crush on me for about 15-20 years or so (why??), and every few years it seems she pops up somewhere contacting me to try to persuade me to give her a chance. I should mention we never talked in high school, I actively avoided her, told her I didn’t like her, etc. nothing doing.

Anyway, somehow she’s been on one of my social media pages and saw I was having a hard time lately, so she found my phone number (what?? I hate that you can just find that online) and texted me out of the blue yesterday. Usual protocol is ignore and block so I don’t piss off an unstable person, but they decided to be gross, so

I wasn’t planning on posting anything about this before. If they were creeping around on my pages, mentioning it would only feed into them. Maybe. I don’t know. But this just kind of made me really uncomfortable and their response was shitty. I could have been a lot meaner. I wanted to be. But whatever, that wouldn’t have helped. So I just blocked them and hope that this time it sticks. If they see this, then hey… not cool.
