What's Bothering You?

Dumb, but I don’t like how Fanatics is now the official manufacturer of NHL apparel for the next ten years. Their shirts are low quality and the graphics fade. I’m glad my shirts are the Adidas brand. I take care of the graphics on my shirts, so I’d rather not deal with the Fanatics branded merchandise.
 
can i get some advice from someone? or just some love?

have someone i considered a good friend. we planned on going out of country to attend a convention together. (we live on border states so its not risky.) planned out a lot of things and i was getting super excited. i found out today by an anonymous source that my friend has been known to scam a lot. in the art community, many people have shunned them away and they have a kickstarter they scammed a LOT of money from (and i know its them because their full legal name is on it) and it was only a few years ago, not like 10-15 years. so, recent scamming. im not worried about being scammed/losing money to her bc im paying for everything on my own, but i'm afraid of my own reputation being tainted by association.

how do you even handle something like this? i can't see my friend the same way anymore.
 
There was a bee in my pants and it straight up stung my thigh and ass. Why bee, why would you do that
 
i find it easy to get on with people and i think im generally well liked but i find it so hard to make deeper connections like other people do and idk if i even want to but sometimes i feel so lonely and i feel guilty for only wanting to hang out with my family :( im sad
 
I can’t sell my full oarfish to save my LIFE…not really bothering me, per se, but I do wish I could sell it!

You're stuck with that curse I gave you... forever. This is the true curse of the Enchanted Forest TBT Fair.

Lol, just kidding. I'm sure you'll be able to sell it eventually.

Hahaha, I don’t even really want to sell it because it was a true honor to immortalize the awesome lineup you created. However, I am in desperate need of tbt monies so, to the chopping block it will go, sadly.
 
MY VILLAGERS KEEP MOVING AWAY WITHOUT TELLING MEEEE

julian and dobbie just moved away without telling me within the same month 😭 is this punishment for not playing at least once every few weeks?

i would love to buy it but as you can see I am quite broke lol


I made the tragic mistake of sticking a sponge in the microwave bc I heard you can disinfect sponges by doing that, but I forgot that this particular sponge had steel wool woven into it so ofc after like one minute the microwave had smoke billowing out of it. now our entire house smells like a burnt sponge 😭
 
A couple of things actually...

1. Musescore's playback audio is skipping on my computer.
2. My internet is slow as crap.
3. There is a very noisy fly flying around my room and I can get it with a fly-swatter (it just flew in front of my face, as if the SOB is mocking me)
4. My mom is being quite rude as always.
 
I get asked occasionally if I’m a boy or a girl, and I’d rather that not be a question. I’m happy that I’m perceived as a boy in some light, but why is it a question? I thought I looked more masculine than “in-between” enough to have them questioning my gender.
 
I've been staying up till 3-4 AM every night for the past week and it's really affecting me. I have to get up at 7 AM on school days, so that's only a few hours of sleep I'm getting on average. Like I know I have to sleep earlier (and I was doing decent with my sleep schedule beforehand), but I just don't. I'm glad I was able to pick up writing and drawing again, but I'm doing it in the wee hours of the morning instead of mid-day and that's a terrible idea.

Also still not getting along with my family and I'm stressed about school because I have so much schoolwork that is long overdue and need to get done. Blegh.

researching printers is a pain. since last year i’ve had a business idea to print and sell stickers on etsy using my parents printer to start but i can’t because none of my drawing print right 😭

im looking for something relatively cheap and the only cheap ones happen to be small thermal printers but i don’t think that can print with color plus i don’t think thermal printed images last long.

Trying to find work right now, and just dealing with flaky people who don't get back to me one way or the other. - Like, there will be no hard feelings if you give me a straight up "no"...but, can you not say "we'll talk later" and then fall silent for like a whole week? Jeeze.

My threpist is going to be retiring and now I am going to find a new one. I felt very sad because I've known them for like 12 years back when I was still going through my rough time and the fact this is happening right now just makes me feel broken. I wish all the best, but now its going to be very hard to find a new threpist. I just wanted to have someone to talk to that understands me and respects me for who I am. 😭

Printing is a pain. Could it be the colors themselves and not the printer? Oftentimes I do a drawing that looks awesome on the screen and then it comes out way darker. I end up having to edit the colors so they look a little weird on screen but print better.

Edit for part 2: It's actually all A-OK now!! Yay! ^u^b

I continued writing a fic that I started almost a year ago (honestly can't believe I left it dormant for that long) and I'm contemplating just starting over the whole thing. My writing style has changed significantly, and the mix of the writing from then and now is noticeable and choppy. I have a better idea for the story that might work better, but that also means I'm gonna lose almost 2k words of progress.

It's not really a huge bother per se, but it is pretty annoying and inconvenient. I've spent the past few days (and staying up till the wee hours of the morning in the process) trying to mend the fic to make it flow better, only to potentially start over anyways. Also kinda wish I realized this whole thing sooner so I could keep the old draft pristine instead of deleting most of it. Oh well.

I experienced the same thing recently, and I felt exactly the same way. Waited a long time for an answer from a potential new employer after being told I was on a call list only to never get said call. Stay strong friend, you got this
