Ruining my good mood streak by entertaining the constant looming pessimism about how I always either crash super hard or something awful happens

Also I owe my other clinic 450 dollars now.

#i forgot to set them as my PCP and so my insurance didn't pay for the visit #i was told changing it the day of MIGHT negate that but i needed to call to make sure #which i didn't #which makes me hate myself #now i have no idea if i'll be able to do that sleep study that i've been due for for over a YEAR #vent

It used to befuddle me how my friends were like.. terrified of the kids who'd hide in the bathroom and vape or get into hallway fights. Like... just nod at 'em, go along with you're business and don't get in theirs and you'll be fine

I had to brush my teeth after lunch for a while and every time I walked in there they'd all tense up then go "oh it's you" and move on. A few were on my soccer team or knew me from art class so they'd say hi but really do nothing.

Ended up hearing all the drama of "oh this person cheated on this person" and "oh this person is rumored to be pregnant."

Like at the end of the day- 1) they're highschoolers, 2) they really don't care as long as you're not crossing them, 3) just be decently friendly to everyone. Unless they go after you first, then you can deal with it.

#there was this one girl who decided to fight her rival in front of a teacher #like honey there was a bathroom like five feet away #you got one lousy punch in and then they stopped you #if you're gonna fight at least do it right #If someone goes after you for no reason then you're apt to deal with it #some boy I'd never talked to in my life started a rumor that I send certain photos to two of my guy friends #which I didn't #and both of those guy friends and me went to the principle and told 'em because it was one of those country boys who have the giant trucks #all bark no bite type of guy #but yeah. treat people like people and you probably wont get beat up #high school #sparkrambles #sparksilly

You know you're "old" when shopping online just makes you groan in protest because it's hours of searching, cross-referencing, double-checking specs, reading reviews, filling out fields, culminating in going to your banking app to immediately pay off your credit card again.

#kkglinka does stuff #I'm very grateful to have these resources #which I didn't #for the majority of my life #but tires and batteries #are so expensive #and next comes the hard part #making phone calls #to find a shop that will #drag my bike back and forth #for me since I can't #phone #calls

the funniest meltdown ive ever had was in college when i got so overstimulated that i could Not speak, including over text. one of my friends was trying to talk me through it but i was solely using emojis because they were easier than trying to come up with words so he started using primarily emojis as well just to make things feel balanced. this was not the Most effective strategy... until. he tried to ask me "you okay?" but the way he chose to do that was by sending "👉🏼👌🏼❓" and i was so shocked by suddenly being asked if i was dtf that i was like WHAT???? WHAT DID YOU JUST SAY TO ME?????????? and thus was verbal again

#yeehaw #1k #5k #10k #posts that got cursed. blasted. im making these tag updates after... 19 hours?#also i have been told it should say speech loss bc nonverbal specifically refers to the permanent state. did not know that!#unfortunately i fear it is so far past containment that even if i edited it now it would do very little. but noted for future reference #edit 2: nvm enough ppl have come to rb it from me directly that i changed the wording a bit. hopefully this makes sense #also. in case anyone is curious. though i doubt anyone who is commenting these things will check the original tags #1) my friend did not do this on purpose in any way. it was not intended to distract me or to hit on me. im a lesbian hes a gay man. cmon now #he felt very bad about it afterwards. i thought it was hilarious but it was very embarrassed and apologetic #2) “why didn't he use 🫵🏼?” didn't exist yet. “why didn't he use 🆗?” dunno! we'd been using a lot of hand emojis. 👌🏼 is an ok sign #like it makes sense. it was just a silly mixup. also No i did not invent 👉🏼👌🏼 as a gesture meaning sex. do you live under a rock #3) nonspeaking episodes are a recurring thing in my life and have been since i was born. this is not a quirky one-time thing #it is a pervasive issue that is very frustrating to both myself and the people i am trying to communicate with. in which trying to speak is #extremely distressing and causes very genuine anguish. this post is not me making light of it it's just a funny thing that happened once #it's no different than if i post about a funny thing that happened in conjunction w a physical disability. it's just me talking abt my life #i don't mind character tags tho. those can be entertaining. i don't know what any of you are talking about #Except the ppl who have said this is pego/ryu or wang/xian. those people i understand and respect #if you use it as a writing prompt that's fine but send it to me. i want to see it #aaaand i think that's it. everyday im tempted to turn off rbs on it. it hasn't even been a week

So a couple of months ago, I was visiting my brother, and we go to the mall.

We go to a Spencer's Gifts after he said it's a store chain that's essentially taken the place of a Hot Topic, and I wanted to look at posters and such.

It's a teeny tiny space with merch everywhere and the back wall is adorned with sex toys. I'm not interested in that, I'm looking for fandom crap. A group of teen boys walk by, one of them holding and honking one of those rubber chickens. It's annoying as shit, and one of the friends tries to snatch it away, and honking intensifies. This goes on for maybe a minute as they hang around the back of the store. Eventually the group leaves, and I turn to my brother and go 'so they were choking the chicken by the dildos'

#I'm so proud of how much I made him laugh 😤#he dared me to say that closer to the group too #which I didn't #because there's no need to roast a gaggle of idiots that badly

I'm getting my cunts sensibility back is sooooo over for you guys

#it's not completly back but since they lowered the antidepressants it's slowly coming back #like i get that 'touching myself and feeling heat in all my body' kind of feeling #which i DIDN'T #it's not all the time but it's there #and my old psychatrist tried to make me think it was something psychological #professional gaslighters

the fact that shakespeare was a playwright is sometimes so funny to me. just the concept of the "greatest writer of the English language" being a random 450-year-old entertainer, a 16th cent pop cultural sensation (thanks in large part to puns & dirty jokes & verbiage & a long-running appeal to commoners). and his work was made to be watched not read, but in the classroom teachers just hand us his scripts and say "that's literature"

just...imagine it's 2450 A.D. and English Lit students are regularly going into 100k debt writing postdoc theses on The Simpsons screenplays. the original animation hasn't even been preserved, it's literally just scripts and the occasional SDH subtitles.txt. they've been republished more times than the Bible

#due to the Great Data Decay academics write viciously argumentative articles on which episodes aired in what order #at conferences professors have known to engage in physically violent altercations whilst debating the air date number of household viewers #90% of the couch gags have been lost and there is a billion dollar trade in counterfeit “lost copies”#serious note: i'll be honest i always assumed it was english imperialism that made shakespeare so inescapable in the 19th/20th cent #like his writing should have become obscure at the same level of his contemporaries #but british imperialists needed an ENGLISH LANGUAGE (and BRITISH) writer to venerate #and shakespeare wrote so many damn things that there was a humongous body of work just sitting there waiting to be culturally exploited...#i know it didn't happen like this but i imagine a English Parliament House Committee Member For The Education Of The Masses or something #cartoonishly stumbling over a dusty cobwebbed crate labelled the Complete Works of Shakespeare #and going 'Eureka! this shall make excellent propoganda for fabricating a national identity in a time of great social unrest.#it will be a cornerstone of our elitist educational institutions for centuries to come! long live our decaying empire!'#'what good fortune that this used to be accessible and entertaining to mainstream illiterate audience members...#..but now we can strip that away and make it a difficult & alienating foundation of a Classical Education! just like the latin language :)'#anyway maybe there's no such thing as the 'greatest writer of x language' in ANY language?#maybe there are just different styles and yes levels of expertise and skill but also a high degree of subjectivity #and variance in the way that we as individuals and members of different cultures/time periods experience any work of media #and that's okay! and should be acknowledged!!! and allow us to give ourselves permission to broaden our horizons #and explore the stories of marginalized/underappreciated creators #instead of worshiping the List of Top 10 Best (aka Most Famous) Whatevers Of All Time/A Certain Time Period #anyways things are famous for a reason and that reason has little to do with innate “value”#and much more to do with how it plays into the interests of powerful institutions motivated to influence our shared cultural narratives #so i'm not saying 'stop teaching shakespeare'. but like...maybe classrooms should stop using it as busy work that (by accident or designs)#happens to alienate a large number of students who could otherwise be engaging critically with works that feel more relevant to their world #(by merit of not being 4 centuries old or lacking necessary historical context or requiring untaught translation skills)#and yeah...MAYBE our educational institutions could spend less time/money on shakespeare critical analysis and more on...#...any of thousands of underfunded areas of literary research i literally (pun!) don't know where to begin #oh and p.s. the modern publishing world is in shambles and it would be neat if schoolwork could include modern works?#beautiful complicated socially relevant works of literature are published every year. it's not just the 'classics' that have value #and actually modern publications are probably an easier way for students to learn the basics. since lesson plans don't have to include the #important historical/cultural context many teens need for 20+ year old media (which is older than their entire lived experience fyi)

*shadowdancer isn't a 5e rogue subclass, it's a 3.5e rogue-based prestige class, but it suits her so well and when i played 3.5e as a kid i thought it was the coolest thing ever lol so i wanted to use it

karlach 🔥 wyll ⚔️

#shadowheart #bg3 #my art #*i still think it's the coolest thing ever #ngl tho i hate to speak a word against objectively the best class (rogue) it could use more weird spooky subclasses #rly the only cool supernatural one rn is phantom which i do like a whole lot but it didn't feel like a good fit for her #glad to get this done before succumbing fully to DA brain but idk what the fate of the final three will be lol #next up is lae’zel so im hoping the Do It For Her will motivate me

having good & true friends will literally save and protect you in a million unfathomable ways. like okay we have written so many times about lovers. but the way a platonic friend laughs and cries with you. the way they hold your hand at 14 years old and at 34. the way they keep a little silver tie to you, touching base over and over and over. how you can go years without talking, only to re-meet and discover: oh shit! you're still cool!

there are people who have been in my life for more than half of it, and i have loved every version of them. do you know how fucking beautiful that is. yeah love will save the world. but the way friends love you is gonna save the you.
