What's Bothering You?

[Dawnpiplup]

Also, man... I'm just worried about hanging out with this faculty member in public now. Even more so than before, after that whole incident.

I don't want anyone to get the wrong impression about this guy. Even though he's much older than me, this dude's the chillest and sweetest person ever. He takes care of the 10+ cats around campus; he's the guy people call up when they find a stray animal; he takes care of testing and academia for blind and deaf students.... he's an all around nice guy. I see him as a paternal figure, and I love him as such. We hang out together all the time. I mean, I was a bit anxious about it before - like how others might see the relationship - but even more so when this incident happened. Some ***** that is a professor here (who everyone pretty much hates, apparently) was talking to another faculty member about how she saw us holding hands. Now I just am going more ****ing nervous. It's not that kind of relationship, folks. Why is it that society goes bat**** crazy when an older adult and teenager are friends / hanging out? Though... I mean I can see how people think it's abnormal. I mean, I guess I can even see it. I dunno. Ugh.

That, and the end of the school is coming near, and I have this ****load of **** I need to do. And just having to go back home... makes me barf.

Last night I went to ped having a small panic attack and today kept waking up because my dad makes a lot of noise and I may have had small panic attacks as well. i just woke up again and still feel anxious and extremely aggravated. seriously hope i don’t need to put stuff away for the painting soon since i really don’t want my room painted let alone two strangers coming in my room and then i have to sleep somewhere else on an air mattress. no place to retreat to, no place to stay up late. i hate this and also don’t know how to deal with something else that has been nothing but stress.

I’ve been feeling icky all day. Not horrible thankfully but still not a good feeling.

It was the beginning of a headache earlier (which is thankfully gone now) but now my digestive system is unhappy... ugh.

 

[xSuperMario64x]

i really wish I could stop getting headaches/migraines nonstop lol

like I really need to practice my piano pieces and listen to some stuff by Scriabin for my independent study class, but my head hurts and i really just want to go to sleep ;;

hoping i did more good for a little lizard then anything. one of my outside cats got ahold to a teeny tiny lizard and took his tail and an eye. i stopped him (he was just playing with it at that point) and the little thing was still breathing so i put the little guy on a napkin under a bush and covered him with a leaf and gave him a little water and a grape and some chicken (not sure which it eats). stayed nearby, but left him alone for a bit and when i went back after checking on him like 3-5 times he was gone. hopefully he'll be ok.

edit:
just looked it up and turns out it was a little skink looked just like this, but shorter cause of the missing tail

they can eat lots of things, but mainly meat so hopefully the chicken helped. a little of the water got on the napkin so hopefully it drank some thru that. be safe out there little skink and i'm sorry about your tail and eye.

This is the best thing I have read today - you did good by little skink, I imagine they are out there, hydrated and with a belly full of chicken, living a good life and with a new adventure story to tell their buddies.

If it helps at all, I think you’re okay! I have the same worry whenever I talk about my girlfriend or get pictures made of us to use for my avatar/signature. I’m always worried somebody will tell me to hush or be bothered by my avatar/signature

I think that as long as you aren’t de-railing threads you’re totally fine! I’ve never seen you post somewhere and ignore the actual subject of the thread to talk about LGBT+ things so I think you’re okay.

TW: Death

Spoiler

one my dogs passed away today. I feel like I had a friend ripped away from me, I already miss him.

Hey there! I know we don’t know each other that much, but I’m sorry to hear about your dog passing away. That‘s really tough. My cat is getting older and I’m not sure when she’ll pass away, but I know I’ll be really sad when she does. I hope your dog had a good life and I know he will be missed.

it's sad to think about how I didnt get to say goodbye to him, but I think he'll be happy in heaven

I'm so sorry that that professor has made it more difficult for you to hang around someone who supports you society really needs to start accepting platonic relationships and not assuming everything is romantic

So uh apparently my manager said to some guys in our department that I'm the water manager in training?? Um excuse me no I literally have no experience in contracting (until recently) lmao. I'm hoping he was meaning someone else because that job ain't for me chief lol

I understand how you guys feel. As someone who is LGBT myself (bisexual) AND fictosexual (i.e. I am aro-ace towards real people, and I experience attraction to male and female animated characters), I have this sort of fear as well.

I have a crush on this video game character. He is from Flipline Studio's Papa Louie cooking games. His name is Mousse....
I post pictures of him and I on DeviantArt, and I gush about him on the official website's forum. And I do have anxiety of bothering people. A ton of those forum members do complain about people shipping themselves with the Papa Louie customers. And while I have not been specific called out on (whether it was at me or about me) for shipping myself with Mousse, the general stance on people shipping themselves with these characters is highly discouraging. I actually have an online friend who also ships herself with a Papa Louie customer (the customer's name is Quinn), and she has been talked trash about behind her back by other Papa Louie fans for it. ;-;

I can also be REALLY SHY when it comes to asking to buy/trade art. I would be lying if I said that the thought of purchasing some avatar art and signature art of me and Mousse from someone on here hasn't crossed my mind. I don't know what it is about me, but I have to practically FORCE myself to ask for an art trade or commission, should I decide I want one.
There are so many requirements to look out for (please note that these are not specific to the forum, I am talking about websites in general that do trades/commissions):
1. Do the prices fall within what you can afford, methods of payment (cash, TBT on here, Points on DA, etc.)...
2. What they can and will draw....
3. Are they okay with drawing fanart, or not? (which is sadly an issue I have seen on DA)
4. Are they opened-minded enough to draw self ships, or are they one of those people that shame self-shippers and/or fictosexuals?
5. Do they only do art trades and commissions for their friends, or are they for everyone (commissions for friends only is rare, but the trades being for friends only is common on DeviantArt)

There are many factors that discourage me from buying amazing art...the fear of being declined being the central one. I don't know what is happening on the other side of the computer screen...I don't know if I was a burden by asking or not...

But yeah...point is...I cannot stand for people to be upset with, disappointed in, annoyed at, and most importantly, angry at me... ;-; .-.

I would hope it goes without saying, but if you run into problems with anyone on TBT concerning this topic you are welcome to come to me directly.

People obviously not keeping distance. Next time I'll buy a leek and hit y'all, face masks is not the only solution to this, man.

Definitely not. As Lumi said, it's not that you're spamming or doing a derail anywhere. If anything I appreciate you being honest and nice about things and I can tell you're genuine

I got my second dose of the vaccine yesterday and I’m not feeling too good right now. I feel only just good enough that I can’t justify not going into work and just bad enough that today is dragging by. I decided not to take my meds as well, so that I can go home and nap a little today, which is needed but not helping my situation at all. I only have a few more hours here at least.

 

[SmoochsPLH]

sega whhhhhhhhhhhy. why do you decide to do freaking nfts whhhhhhy

 

[xSuperMario64x]

so tired of having to read stuff for my classes that either discuss explicit sexual encounters multiple times or practically revolve around them. these issues happen elsewhere as well but they bother me most when I have to read them for homework. **** like this makes me resent being apothi/ace, I'm tired of feeling like I'm an outlier who has no place in regular society.
