What's Bothering You?


Sorry to hear that :/. Idk what happened, but I can sympathize. I would say not to dwell on it since it is so easy to get an infraction or warning, but, it stings too when I’ve got one. Was considering leaving a few times because I got so upset.One was a dumb mistake on my part; I didn’t pay attention to when I last bumped my thread. And the other I forgot there was a rule. I hope you have a better day tomorrow. My dms are open if you want to talk more about it; no pressure though.
 
Talking about my own infraction is fine in this thread, huh? Well, guess I'll still have to save those choice words for myself, amirite bucko? Because yeah, the infraction has certainly bothered me a lot. Talk about an infringement of the first amendment, but whatever.

Anyway, the whole thing has pretty much ruined my day. Everytime I look at my profile now (at least until it expires), I'll forever remember what I've done for the forum, and what the forum has done for me in return. Thanks a lot, guys.

Might just cancel the Halloween event if this gets bad enough. I'm not really in the mood anymore.
I can relate.. My last infraction was for informing someone they were posting in the wrong section, apparently that's not allowed 🥴 Anyway, try not to let it bother you too much; personally I try to see it as a positive in that at least the mods really care about the forums and try their best to make it a quality place, rather than a forum that goes completely unchecked, y'know? They can be strict but I think it's ultimately a good thing. If only they would make the infractions not appear after they've expired.

I think recent years have been better but they should still be more clear and proper on some stuff tbh. But yeah I think most people know what they did so I agree you shouldn't have to look at 10 pages every time you view your profile lo.
 
Not enough sleep at all

Last night our toilet got clogged and overflowed, at 12:30 at night 😑 my bf and I were getting ready for bed at the time.
We had to scramble to get towels to soak up all the water, then clean everything because it was gross obviously. Got everything done by 2am, but then I couldn't sleep from all the stress. Ultimately I think I got about 4 hours maybe? I feel awful and mildly traumatised by the whole incident.
 
Feeling sick and stressed which is hard to manage while at college and away from home. I miss my family and dog lots and I don't get to see them until Thanksgiving break. The only thing that has made me feel a bit better was watching the ACNH update so I am holding onto that feeling with all my strength
 
there's this guy in my family studies class that i thought was funny and cool but today, he revealed himself to be a raging transphobe and probably a homophobe too. my class was chilling outside for break and then he asked my friends and i about transgender people being in the olympics.

from that point, he became super transphobic, saying the worst things about trans people, especially trans women. he kept misgendering the trans woman who did weightlifting in the 2020 Olympics. i could tell i wasn't the only one who was super uncomfortable with this (we were all in a circle and everyone just kinda drifted away from the circle once he started saying transphobic stuff) i really, REALLY wish i wasn't so anxious about confrontation because i had a lot of words to say. my friend texted my other friend about how weird this guy was being and that friend replied with "imagine not being transphobic lol"... so yeah i'm never coming out to anyone as sapphic to anybody at school and i gotta think about who hang out with LMAO

have a meeting with my job coach on friday, and it's been giving me panic attacks all week. i'm supposed to be getting a fit note, and she's given me since last tuesday to make a doctor's appointment but i haven't done it because i'm too scared to go, especially since i found out that the doctor i was seeing pre-pandemic no longer even works at my GP. now i'm just scared of friday's appointment as well, because i'm probably going to get in trouble for not doing it. i hate it here. i wish i could just disappear.
 
Depressed even though I should be happy after meeting the kittens

already the name suggestions for the calico are ridiculous from my nieces: cookie, coo coo kangaroo. no thank you. 😅

Tornado warning ;-; Scary… ;-;

It bothers me because the sirens and the TV alerts trigger my sensory overload and I just feel like crying.
Yeah, I feel ya, they are scary. My son hates sirens. 🥺 I usually tell him it's okay, that it just means that someone is getting help and that we need to pray for them. ❤ I wish that was the case in this instance!
 
I got an alert from my phone about an earthquake nearby?? Uh when did I ask for a dose of ptsd from my phone??

I guess it's good to have a warning but wow did my anxiety skyrocket for a second there
 
my keyboard on the phone shows 3 American flag emojis and 2 Great Britain flag emojis. They're all the same, so l'm confused of why clones. Also a problem with other few flags. Also my custom status is very hard to make now, idk what to put down.
 
Ok, here's the matter... It's been a month since I started college, and I'm enjoying it a lot. Really, I am! Buuut there's this teeny tiny little thing irking me quite a lot: that the teachers who are supposed to teach me all about the language and its correct use (because my degree is about languages) are the first ones using it wrong :cautious:.

I know that nobody is perfect, but still. I mean, wouldn't you be annoyed if an English teacher mixed than/then, for example? Or its/it's? Because I totally expected a certain level of care about the subject they're supposed to be authorities on. Do you think I'm just exaggerating?
