guys very sexually frustrated at the moment trying to be cool about it
#so the story is.#I'm going on a date with this guy in TWO WEEKS A LONG TIME AWAY#and we have like----history#but it's like almost history#not real history#we met 6 years ago#and have not seen each other since#and I had the HUGEST CRUSH ON HIM#like he was like a celebrity to me he was untouchable#and since then we've almost hooked up#TWICE NOW#the first time was like 6 months after we'd parted wats#and the second was 2 years ago#but each time SOMETHING happened and it fell thorugh#and now 'm shaking in my boots that he's gonna cancel#and like#he lives super far awary so it's this time or never

HELLO MY FRIEND HOW ARE YOU? HOW IS CAT??
Well, I am doing well, although recently I had to leave a beautiful house and town and respectable job to move into a hippie commune on the coast as to save money in order to upkeep my pilot studies, as well as decide whether to continue the journey or to return to my homeland, and as it turns out, I’ve done a lot of growing up in the last two years since leaving home and cannot stand hippies, since I’ve become a lot more level-headed and a realist over the road, so life right now is like when Sokka had to put up with those Nomads in Avatar:
#I don’t really identify with the carefree lifestyle anymore#which I guess is why Jaskier isn’t really my profile pic anymore#I’ve changed a lot since I set out two years ago#grown up a lot#wised up#matured#I even gave my lute away to a musician friend I met on the road#these days I’m more focused on pragmatism and realism#a lot more serious#still sarcastic and whatnot but in a more travelled/worldly-experience way#but help I can’t stand these hippies#I was an ENFP a few years ago when I didn’t have all this experience under my belt#and these days I’m INTP according to all my personality tests#so I guess the road can change a person#and my cat is doing well#he also hates hippies#but it’s just for 6 weeks#we can power through

ohhhh my god. okay. so. my aunt does like, she buys random junk in bulk from retail wholesalers and then resells it on like, facebook marketplace and ebay and stuff. whatever. so my mom works for her. makes a flat $50 a day, regardless of the fact that shes disabled and doing hard labor for at least 8 hours a day, often 10+. and min wage here is $10 an hour but mom argued that $50 a day is still more than what she would make working the same hours at an actual job because of taxes...like girl that would be 50% taxes. you do not pay that fucking much. so thats already Bad.
but today mom shows me a video of a knife theyre gonna sell, and i watch 2 seconds and i realize its an automatic knife, and i tell her hey. thats illegal to possess in this state. let alone sell! and mom is like ohhh [aunt] knows what shes doing itll be fine.... we sell knives on there all the time she just doesnt put pictures and calls them something else on the listing to get around fb/ebays policies :)
LIKE. HELLO. THATS NOT BETTER. YOURE COMMITTING MULTIPLE CRIMES. *AS YOUR JOB.* and she was just like "its not a big deal she knows what shes doing." folks, this is the same aunt that, very illegally, paid me to sort through her clients confidential tax documents and bank records and stuff. because she works for a bank. and took the records home to sort them. i dont think she DOES know what shes doing, actually!
#why do both of my parents need to be so impressively incompetent. i like. cannot find the words for how . i feel about this#like. idc about crimes. go forth. be free. but maybe. just maybe. you should not make your job#“hi today i will post about how i am selling illegally possessed objects on a widely used public forum”#dont do crimes STUPID. yanno.#in other parent news. its now like. month 6 or so of dad refusing to get his insurance reinstated.#hes been on the same step (taking his paystubs to the dhhr office) for like 3 months?#anyway apparently he found out today/last night that when he was a kid he was diagnosed with gastroparesis !#which is like ! cool! you have a diagnosis AND ive been living with that for 16 years and can help you 🥰#but we were sitting there with mom (this was right before the knife thing) and she was like “well you gotta get your insurance now so you#can get on the right meds“ and dad was like yeah ill go....#and mom was saying well go in the morning when they open etc etc and he was like i will#and i pointed out that just two weeks ago i told him that too. and he didnt want to. bc hed lose money due to not being able to work#and mom was like well he doesnt work at 8am. and i was like yeah i know but i told him to go at 8am two weeks ago and that was his response#and then he proceeded to claim that this whole time he didnt know they opened at 8am.#folks. he doesnt start working until like...usually 10 or so. WHAT GOVERNMENT OFFICE DOESNT OPEN UNTIL 10.#PLUS. WE LIVE IN A RURAL HOUR. *BUSY* TAKES LIKE AN HOUR. MOST OF THE TIME YOURE IN AND OUT WITHIN 20 MINITES.#ive been fucking considering PAYING HIM to go get it.#and then he claims he didnt know it opened at 8am. when i have told him that. MULTIPLE TIMES.#WHY DO THEY HAVE TO BE LIKE THISSSS THEYRE THE MOST IMMATURE ADULTS IVE EVER MET AND THATS IMPRESSIVE!!!#IVE KNOWN PEOPLE WHO PAY THEIR RENT IN COKE OR WHO ARE ESSENTIALLY PROFESSIONAL PARTIERS. AND *THEYRE* MORE RESPONSIBLE AND MATURE THAN MY#PARENTS. SO WHAT GIVES.#also theyre 50 like cmon yall. youre not even 20 or 30. i think you should know how to not like. get your job shut down or die of lack#of medication.#did i tell yall one of the times a few months ago i was nagging dad abt getting his insurance#his response was literally. no exxageration.#he was like oughhh i dont wanna see doctors because then theyll find out somethings wrong with me#and ill have to go on a bunch of medication.#and then he actually for real. said.#“being on too many medications killed my grandma”#even mom was like cmon man. thats not even true. they misdiagnosed her and put her on WRONG meds. she wasnt even on that many.

y’all I am losing my mind
#Who WAS that#This is driving me insane#Ran into someone who was like “we have met! We went skating together awhile ago!”#And I was like “oh! With *redacted* figure skating club?” And they said no???#But??? When- where??? I skate at 6 am???? When the rink is dead empty???#There’s one person I can think of who I used to skate with in the mornings but I swear that wasn’t her????#But was it???#I haven’t talked to her in forever and texting her now would be akward as hell I think#Particularly becuase that interaction happened like a full day ago#And in my head I was like “oh we must have been skating together on a school group skating trip years ago”#Y’all. I did not go on that trip. I went to a trampoline park. It took my a full 18 hours to be like “wait I literally have never done that#Also that would have been in like??? Middle school??? I have no idea why I thought I went on that trip#It would also have been more than “awhile” ago#Anyways. Driving me insane.#I swear that girl lives in a much different area???#I am so confused now#I guess it has been like two three years since I’ve seen her? So maybe???#Anyways I’ll just wait for FS news to break then text it to her like it hasn’t been months#Also I have zero concept of time and space while I’m working#I can barely muster human emotion much less recognize a face

dating advice is so bizarre lmao i'm so glad i'm not doing that shit
#i heard it before and just read it again that you shouldnt go on coffee dates for first dates but to dinner#bc the guy is “cheap” if he doesnt go to dinner with you lol#yall are so weeeeird#i dont want to go to a whole fancy restaurant dinner with a person (esp a man) ive never met before#putting everything that is below “dinner date” down as “cheap” “low effort” etc is so dumb#eating ice cream and walking in the park would be a great date imo as well as getting coffee#i want to get to know another human being through convesation not check a list of made up criteria#its perfectly fine to not want to spend 60 bucks on dinner with a stranger that might turn out terrible#and getting coffee is open ended and flexible you can still get dinner afterwards but can also easily leave#back in my time (like 6 years ago lol) we called it a date when a girl and boy were just hanging out lol#everyone can do what they want etc but i just feel so ughhh whenever i read shit like that#i guess dating in general is bizarre to me#meeting people with the sole intent of potentially becoming romantic with them? odddddd

I don't think that kids should be exclusively homeschooled, but I also don't think that kids should be going to a building with hundreds of people 5 days a week during a pandemic. It's one of the main reasons why it keeps spreading so rapidly and won't go away. They don't take any preventative measures at schools anymore (at least not around here). You got kids? You're getting sick. Your coworker has kids? You're getting sick.
Schools are back to counting attendance. You can't even keep your kid home long enough to recover from covid before sending them back. They literally send a "truancy" (police) officer to your house if you keep them home too often.
I feel like we could be doing something better. I'm not entirely sure what the solution is. But this isn't it.
#.bdo#I tried homeschooling 3 kids at the beginning of the pandemic my ADHD is way too bad for that#this doesn't even touch on how I think the modern public school system needs to be abolished and rebuilt#the kids don't get enough breaks bullying isn't properly addressed the history they teach them is biased and/or outdated#attendance policies are ableist and classist and a fuck#PE shouldn't be something you're graded on and exercises should be given based on the individual child's abilities and needs#there should be more counselors and actual child psychologists in the building#school breakfast and lunches should always be free for every kid (thankfully they started doing that here in my town a year ago)#there should be different times of the day you can drop your kid off instead of one set starting time and one ending time#to work with different people's work and sleeping schedules#kids should not be required to be at school before 9 am but we have schools starting between 6:50am-7:20am now#my school years would have been 10000% easier if I could have started at 11am instead#kids need to be met at their level instead of forcing the same curriculum on everyone#MORE TEACHERS! More than one per classroom! Why are we making one person watch 30 kids at once!#this needs to be a whole separate post but I needed to get this rant out now

trying to work out how old i think betty is
#i feel like before everything went to shit she was prob like 2 or 3 years younger than simon#but then between the crown and a thousand years passing and time travel that probably got fucked up a bit#im using simon as reference cuz i have nothing else to go off of iwnfuwwfirg#ok im gonna improvise a petrigrof timeline rn#they met when they were post graduate students. according to google the average age of postgrads is like late 20s early 30s#so m gonna say betty was like 29 and simon was 32#they stay together a long time i mean they wrote a book together. ill say like. around a decade. betty is now 38 and simon is 41#at some point during that time they get engaged#then the crown happens and betty jumps into the future#a year after that the war begins (i dont think we have any indication that betty knew ab the war do we?? if thats a thing then pretend she#went to the future a year later idk)#also marceline was born 2 years ago. shes in this timeline too bc shes relevant to simons story#when simon is 44 and marceline is 4 the bomb drops#hes 3 years into the ice king transformation#so his mental aging is like... slowing down#and his physical age is speeding up#marcy is 6 and hes 46 when they meet#and shes around 11 and hes 51 when he leaves#then a thousand years passes and betty appears in the future#shes 38 and simon is insane#shes 39 when she gets magic mand and 40 when she gets golbd. damn that woman cannot catch a break i didnt realize before now how fast all#that happened#and simon is still over a thousand years old. until he gets reset to how he was before the crown! or at least thats what i think happened!#so as of cawm hes like 41 again. and betty is dead#damn ive been calling him grandpa but hes barely even grandpa aged. yet. he is by fionna and cake/obsidian time tho#ok yeah im satisfied w that#adventure time#betty grof#simon petrikov

Woe, 1839 German bible uncovered in family attic be upon ye!
included: names/birthdays from 1892-1985, a pressed flower, a printed condolence card (1913)
not included: several locks of hair, a handmade condolence card (march 1842), 5 deitsch marriage certificates (1851-1935) lots of notes written in deitsch, and the chemise it was wrapped in
#anyways we found all this clearing out my great-great aunt’s house after her passing 6 years ago#There was a photo album too!! I think the earliest one was dated 1871 but don’t quote me on it#I might post photos of it next time I visit my hometown because it’s gorgeous#the benefit of your family never leaving 1 very small county is that there ends up being a lot of history#also it’s really fascinating because my family spoke deitsch in the home up through the forties so a lot of the notes#Written in are minor translations (deitsch is linguistically distinct but Very similar to german)#All of my great-relatives (and the handful of great-greats that I met) could/can still speak a little#Unfortunately WW1/WW2 meant that deitsch pretty much died out everywhere except Amish/mennonite communities#My grandparents still know a couple words but haven’t really spoken it since they were kids#HOWEVER I have learned that some of my/my family’s weird grammar (which I discovered was weird very late in life) is a holdover from deitsc#This has been your obscure linguistics infodump of the day thanks for listening#Whispers from the ally

i am really glad my partner's dad is so supportive cuz holy shit this whole crisis would've been such a worse nightmare without his advice n help 😭😭
#so weird to hang out with a supportive dad#i haven't known a lot of em#before i met him for the first time years and years ago she warned me that he can come off kind of cold and isn't a huge hugger#so after hugging her mom as a greeting when i first met them#i went to shake his hand#and he said smthn like ''don't be silly give me a hug'' and the RELIEF i felt lol#he is in his 70s and when my gf came out suddenly like 6-7 years ago he was immediately like that's great im so happy you have someone!!#i am still awkward around him bc we are both awkward people who struggle to communicate with the other's demographic#(her mom is much easier to get to know lol)#but he has always been very kind to me and i like that he is supportive of my partner#updates on my boring life

Istanbul pt 2
#1. we got invited for dinner at this guys house (my dad met him 2 years ago when he was in Turkiye) and it felt like we were back in#Afghanistan. just their house and the way they were living (most of the things we are during dinner they had grown themselves) and after#dinner we sat outside their house. there was a breeze and we had dried fruits + tea while it slowly got dark outside and it truly felt like#one of the evenings we had in Afghanistan when we would visit#2. my brother tied to per about every single cat he saw in the city lol#3. I’ve become friends w the daughters of my dads long time friend. a few weeks back she posted this home made drink on her IG story#so I replied that it looked good and she promised she’d make it for me when we came to visit. so when we actually went to their house#(I had long forgotten about the drink) she actually went and made the drink for me 🥺 so sweet#6. I just loooooove it when the sun is glistening on water#maybe u can tell since my profile pic has been just that for probably more than 6 years now#jrnl

did you know i love my friends so much.
#⋯ ꒰ა starry thoughts ໒꒱ *·˚#i met 3+ people this year and i think those 3 i can already call best friends... they are all a lil bit similar to each other and to me and#my twin but we differ too in obvious ways and it's just so beautiful to me!#i like how they come from different walks of life! makes me really feel like i'm maturing and growing up even if that's something i don't#necessarily like either but also i won't be getting into that rn oops. uhm anyways!#i love them all a lot !!!#matching bracelets with my group of 4 for 6+ years now... we've been thru some rough patches but i love them so much!#rn i mostly just have problems w one but it's likely bcs she's in the next year compared to us all. early in the next year but yeah#hehehe <3 OH and also matching necklaces kinda !!! morse code ^___^ we all don't know what's written tho hehe#but yeah matching bracelets w our names ... mwa. love them sm#the other friend met early this year! it was my first experience meeting someone so similar to me and my twin so it meant a lot#i think i'm comfy just being my self w them in the same way i am w my twin bcs 1. they are a guy so i don't have to act uhh in a kinda#way i have to do w one of the friends in my group of 4? not that i'm faking that but it's more freeing! so yeah. we already talked about#our world beliefs and philosophies early in our meeting so that was weirdly uh. central to how we're just comfy#they're a bit diff to me and i can tell in what ways and i kinda don't see eye-to-eye on some topics but i kinda like that i'm trying to be#mature about that! like w adult relationships that i examine but oops won't get into that rn#the other friend!! differs from the other two in that they're the only one who has priorly played ffxiv even if one did character#customization a long time ago and we got em into playing. n the other is about to soon hopefully but otherwise hm i forgot prior to that#THOUGH THOSE TWO. may not have been into ffxiv but DRAKENIER! and those two knew gbf for a while but apparently it was ultimately me/twin#who got em into it finally as far as i'm concerned!! the other is interested too hehe so that all means a lot to me!!#i think it's really funny that. me and lune w em. it's all just a group of 3 EHWHDKJS. altho 2 do know each other#and tbh thx to twt they all might know each other to some extent bcs of my interactions :O ? hmm. just a tad bit tho!#yeah and so the last one... i can see how similar we are but also how we differ and it is very interesting !!!#fun fact the three all like stuff similar to milgram ig ?? two actually do but the other doesnt but hopefully soon but they do like deco*27#yeah ...... !! so anyways yeah it's rlly nice w the last one too bcs it feels like i can really talk to em abt stuff?#i dont really do so often yet but i'd def be comfy w doing so i think. NOT THAT I AM NOT W THE OTHER TWO but it's a lil more ?? !!#i lov that all my closest friends though are into music and video games!! the way that it is differs for us all and that is beautiful tbh#OH. right. i almost forgot i am so sorry#the 4th person i didnt reallt meet this year but we did got closer this year. !!! from xiv#from all of em i actually reallt did just meet them by yk. in game! no similarities were known and it was kinda nice just getting to know

I have a friend who is very much trying to fix my sleep schedule (telling me to not go to bed too late and whatnot. And the fact that she is a morning person also makes it funnier) but I am left one night to my own devices (no classes the next days just cooking) and I'm back at my nonsense with a little reading session until 4 am. By my current estimates I will fall asleep by 5:30.
Sorry Sweetheart, (let's ignore the fact I also have a crush on her. She's straight. I've tried) but the power of gay cannot save a sleep schedule so terribly broken
#morningtalks#She literally told me today (yesterday) to go to bed at a reasonable time#I am hoping she won't ask or something when she wakes up later#We had some thoughts of travelling together in the future. We knew with our sleep schedules it would get funny#But I still think Rome and Lesbos could be amazing trips for the both of us#Will do some research on if it's doable in the winter. Then maybe we could see in the future if we find some time#But God I love her so much#When I'm explaining the FrostWhistle really devoted friendship stuff that's kinda what I'm alluding to#I cherish every second of the time I spend with her. She's funny and she's kind and we share so many passions and we always find things to#Talk about. Be it the classes we share or classics stuff in general (because we both study Latin)#But we always have more things to talk about.#I am so happy to have met her and that was nearly a year ago#How time flies. I feel like it was only yesterday that we talked for the first time but also like we've known each other for years#So much stuff happened in so little time and now I have this wonderful person as my friend and we hang out together#And study some fucking Latin together to ease the pain with some good company (and snacks)#She knows about my crush. Me being honest about this shit actually helped us become closer#I was honest. Asked for her honest answer and that's how it went. Now we're really open about stuff and I am making a few dumb jokes#Lately too about why the fuck she's straight. Stop being straight.#Gotta stop rambling though. Won't fall asleep until 6 if I do lmao#But I really love her so much and I felt like I needed to share that with the void briefly

i know the general consensus is that when corrected on pronouns you shouldnt say sorry you should say thank you. i disagree agree i want a sorry
#a quick one. but like if youve known me for years and youre still slipping up especially deadnaming me???#you should be sorry. and its not okay. and im upset with you#if we met a month ago ill forgive you and a sorry isnt needed but you get 1 year and then you owe me a gift every time#brenda. you owe me like 6 gifts brenda.#‘’i dont want grovelling’’ i do. you should feel bad. you should be embarrassed#fuck you#no this isnt 100% true i mess up cis ppls pronouns occasionally its not entirely insidious if someone gets mine wrong once or twice#but like. a sorry. not a thank you for me#simons spouting

"why do you seem like a totally different person sometimes"
because i am! hope this helps :)
#the inevitable “i'm so traumatized my brain is in tiny fragments lol sorry but at least you get more friends looool” conversation#tbt when i was first diagnosed and i was soooo scared of telling spouse (we were like 6 months before the wedding)#and when i finally told him he was like “oh yeah i met a few parts years ago they said not to mention it”#and i was like WHAT WHAT THE FUCK HUH#anyway obviously he married me anyway lol and he's very popular with a lot of the parts#any time we have to tell somebody about our diagnosis we always look back on those first few days after telling husband#and just the relief that came with that#idk#not nostalgia#just#idk the words#anyway#having to explain why i am the way that i am is so stressful#not as much online but irl???? god#anyway backt to our regularly scheduled reblogs
