What's Bothering You?

this is so stupid but why does literally no one trust me with anything
"we're scared you were gonna tell someone" since when?? even my mother says she cant trust me with secrets and im like???? i barely talk to people irl, im extremely introverted, so where are you guys getting this distrust from..... its so ****ty how im left out of things all the time for this distrust that stems out of nowhere
theyre like afraid i would tell my cousins and im like.... i havent talked to them? in months?? chat occasionally sure but nothing too deep, meanwhile the older family members are out here talking almost everyday and yet you think I'M the problem

thanks for leaving me out of things i guess, cant feel comfortable even at home
 
The upcoming U.S. election is…concerning, to say the least. I do not want my birth control taken away. I do not want women to lose their rights. I do not want to be considered a failed woman for having PCOS. (Although like 10% of women have it) I am also worried about healthcare, racism, gun control, and LGBT rights.

My worry is the main guy, of course, but if his health fails and Hillbilly Elegy takes over, things will be much worse for women. I know it’s cliche at this point, but real-life “Handmaid’s Tale.”

I will vote, though! Make sure of that!
 
Wishing to resubmit/change my collectible entry for the Haunted Carnival as I kind of rushed it out in a wave of excitement and I only provided one progress photo (a photo of a page in my sketchbook). People keep reacting to my entry and I understand why but it makes me feel weird. But I'm too scared to edit it or make another entry without staff approval ;-;

You've spoken about this new puppy before and it seems like your personalities just don't match, and that's okay. A golden retriever is very different from a berense/poodle mix.

For anybody considering adopting a new pet I would strongly recommend you look into the breed before hand. This includes doing your own research *and* talking to the people you're adopting from. There's a risk the person won't be straightforward but it's better than going in completely blind. This includes knowing all of their medical info as well, it's also important for your vet!

Regardless though, you have her now. And it sounds like she's not in the environment that's good for her needs or yours. It would be better for both of you to rehome her at this point. Given that you mentioned allergies, the ongoing stress of the mess, and having many other pets to care for it doesn't make sense to take on another when you don't need to. It's more responsible to rehome her than keep her and not give her the life she needs and deserves.

Regarding the cats, what kind of litter tray do you have? We have one that has three parts to it - two solid trays and then a sifting tray. It works better for us than using a scoop does.

If your cats are very stinky I'd look into the food they're eating. Generally speaking a cats bowel movement shouldn't be so awful that you're gagging (or opening doors and windows to air out the place) especially after being in the litter. They may be allergic to something in their food! We've had that issue with my kitties before and while we don't know for sure what the allergy is switching the foods helped a ton. We found feeding them more wet food also helped their tummies.

With all the dander/pet fur I'd recommend brushing your pets outside if you can! I know that can be tricky with cats if they're indoor only but you could still put the fur outside. It's good for the birds, too! They use the fur to make their nests cozy. Brushing frequently is also helpful for dealing with the loose fur that might float around the house.

On the topic of dogs

Ours got excited and clashed her head into mine and jolted my tooth into my inner bottom lip. It caused a painful blister that's been there for a few days.

Because of anxiety, any sort of pain immediately freaks me out. Enough that last night I had a nightmare involving a medical emergency.
 
vet said our dog's outlook isnt looking too good.... the bumps on his body are growing, it's definitely cancerous at this point, but they cant operate on him anymore because he's old and they're afraid he wont be able to wake up from the anesthesia

im not fully surprised since we've known this for a long time now, i just need to mentally prepare myself when the time comes. ive been preparing for a long while now actually, he's come close to death a few times when he was terribly ill, but we were so happy he would nurse back to good health every time

there will come a time he wont be able to recover anymore..... well, that's life

anyway i do want to enjoy the time i have with him, death is inevitable but i'd like to think we gave him a good life :) he's 14 now, he's seen me graduate 4 times (from grade school to post grad!!), and i hope he's still got a few good years in him 💖 i wont be fully ready when the time comes, but i know me and my family are coming from a place full of love and care. 💖
 
I love when people don't inform the one who opens the shop that due to half term, I open the shop later than normal...and leave later.

Still putting down what time I started today. And she knew from last time, that the shop I worked at before was different and never opened later.
So unprofessional when she doesn't tell me. Now I'll be here longer and I havet even had one order yet.

(Half term is like letting kids off school for a week or two, and we're around a lot of schools so when they're off for holidays my boss likes to open later)
 
A bit minor, but I have been feeling a bit frustrated about something today
So, the whole dog having to be dropped off over here has unfortunately been happening on a pretty frequent basis since May, so I stopped ranting about it on here after the first few times.

However, my grandma decided to suddenly spring it on us without letting us know in advance. So, safe to say, I had an unpleasant awakening this morning. I do not know, I just hate surprises like this. I like to be aware of **** that is about to happen. I can understand if my grandparents had an emergency that suddenly comes up, but they plan things MONTHS in advance and always have to be doing something.

I get it. They are retired and need to stay occupied - believe me, I like to stay busy myself, but they also chose to take in a dog. A dog with separation anxiety, at that. I feel like they should wait until he passes to do all of this running around.

And my brother doesn't make things any better. He leaves his door open, so the dog can easily get in and out of there. Now, this wouldn't be a problem if he wasn't so loud and obnoxious - screaming to his friends on Discord, blaring music, etc. There is but a thin wall between our bedrooms so I can hear everything going on in there much more intensely than I normally can.

He also likes to metaphorically rub **** in my face when it comes to dogs. I have stated before on here that he has tried to tell him to go after me. And that just makes me want to shove my brother against the wall. Like, grow up, dude. And it's not like my brother is some hormonal teenager trying to find his way, he is 24. He should know better.

I often just spend 99% of my time in my room when the dog is here. I do not want to deal with him being all up in my way, and I certainly do not want to deal with my brother shoving it in my face. I spend a lot of time in my room to begin with, but my dad notices I spend even more when the dog is here.

Eh, at least it is only for a day this time. Last time he was over, it was for a whole goddamn week. It felt like forever, let me tell you. >_<
 
I know it was literally my first day of work today, but I can't help but think that my coworkers were getting impatient with training me and that I'm always messing something up. 🥲 Things would be easier if I could fully comprehend what people were saying (almost everyone in my department only spoke French) and I just felt like a ****ing idiot. I can't do anything right.

Please don't reply, I'm just venting and I'm sure my sentiments will change the more I work. But my first day was kinda crappy.
