What's Bothering You?

[Violet Witch]

Energy prices in the UK are set to rise by another 80% this October and it seems like our current Government (in power) don't care. Yet the public have no say in who can be the next Prime Minister because our current one was forced to quit because he was an imbecile throughout the pandemic. Only the Conservatives get the choice to vote between two candidates who are both as bad as one another and are completely out of touch with reality when it comes to the working class in this country.

i've wanted to draw for the past 2 days but i can’t because fire alpaca and my drawing tablet are acting weird. initially i thought my tablet was the problem because the old usb to c adapter stopped working (which was apart of the problem) before i realized that i uninstalled the driver but after i got a new adapter it turned on. but when i went to fire alpaca the tools were acting weird, my cursor was laggy and it kept changing between the eye dropper and the brush i was using. i just wanted to drawww

Just being bothered by other peoples life business that isn't even my problem, I wish I could just stop caring about it

Spoiler: :(

was in a pretty decent mood but then I accidentally stumbled upon a facebook video that was clips from the movie Mommy Dearest and it just broke my heart because I understand it. I also saw a video about how ADHD people get told so often "you're not trying hard enough/doing your best" when in reality they've been given a bad set of tools to deal with everything and everyone else has it much easier.

I've never been diagnosed with C-PTSD but I'm pretty positive I have it. my dad is verbally/emotionally manipulative and abusive and I have a lot of trauma from that. I also do have untreated ADHD (as well as being autistic) and honestly just existing is torture. everything is so ungodly difficult and it kinda makes me resent my life. and when i tell people this they just say "yeah we all have problems but we learn to get through them and move on" as if i dont have a literal disability that keeps me from being able to function like a normal person. I feel like I'm faking it, like I'm just making excuses and being lazy.

idk i was gonna record a new yt video but I think im just gonna go to sleep. it's getting late anyways.

 

[skarmoury]

i keep on lacking sleep.
im gonna take a nap rn and pray i wake up to my alarm, because if i don't i'll get in trouble kcjskcdksj

A few days till school starts and my sleep schedule still isn't fixed. At least I've been going to bed at 1 AM or 2 AM instead of the usual 3 AM, but that's still not early enough. Plus, I still wake up at noon, so what's the point in sleeping earlier if I wake up at the same time anyways. :/

I can’t wait for all the kids to go back to school in a weeks time so I can have some peace and quiet on a weekend. All I can hear is some kids kicking a football against a wall and this comes after last night where some idiot left his dog alone to howl non stop in a neighbours garden. Also roll on winter when it’ll be too cold to be outside in the evening.

a couple of weeks back, i told my mom there was a gazebo peg sticking out of the grass in the garden after i almost stepped on it. lo and behold, nobody bothered to remove it, and i just ran right over it trying to get the cat in. now there's a huge bruise on the sole of my foot, and it's throbbing like hell.

Spoiler: beauty standards?

i am so sick and tired of hearing that women with body hair are unnatural/ugly. i am so sick of being made to feel self conscious and disgusting because i don’t shave my legs and armpits every time i shower or every time a single follicle of hair grows. i’m italian. i am covered in hair. my legs, my arms, my armpits. if my hair isn’t natural, why does it grow? why does it protect my skin if it’s not supposed to be there? what is so disgusting about it? it is as natural as my nose, and my eyes, and my thighs. it is as natural and real as the rest of me.

i am not gross for having body hair. it does not mean i smell, or that i’m unclean. i shower. i use deodorant every day. i take care of myself the best i can. why am i expected to shave for the comfort of other people? what about my comfort, what i want? what happened to “i should love my body just the way it is” and “be comfortable in your own skin”? am i not allowed to be comfortable in my own skin if it’s covered in hair?

if my body hair makes people uncomfortable, i don’t see why that should be my problem. it doesn’t affect anyone. it’s my body. i don’t go flaunting it. but if i want to wear a pair of shorts because it’s hot outside and i haven’t shaved, i’m wearing the damn shorts regardless. i will wear a short-sleeved shirt or a tank top regardless of if my pits are shaved. i refuse to shave my arms for anyone ever again.

i want to shave when i want to, when i’ve decided i’ve had enough and want to be smooth. i don’t have the energy to shave 99% of the time. i don’t understand why that would make people uncomfortable, or me ugly. if my hair makes you uncomfortable, you have no business being anywhere near my body. i am the same person shaved or unshaved — i am not less pretty or less of a woman if i have body hair, and i am tired of having to tell people that. i am tired of having to defend myself and justify something that shouldn’t matter.

this body is my home. i should be allowed to decorate it as i please.

I wish my stupid depression wouldn't come back during the fair. I've basically lost interest in participating in anything else. doesn't help that I can't read rules and I have to redo my Behind the Bookcase entry.

My Wii Remotes don't work anymore.
I know I said this like seven times and they were all false alarms, but I'm pretty certain they bit the dust now. One of them doesn't connect and the other doesn't even turn on. I thought it was the batteries so I charged them all, but even then they still don't work.
So I won't be able to play on my Wii until I get new remotes.
I mean, considering how old these things were (like over a decade old) and also taking into account how many times I've thrown these at my wall, I'm surprised they still worked up until this point. It was bound to happen eventually, but I'm still pretty upset about it.

Still trying to get the bath set in new leaf after spending 5 hours looking for it… :/

Update: I think I need Paulo’s amiibo card to unlock it… DX

Nothing bad happened today, but I still feel stressed out. Meditation and showering only helped out for about 1 hr.

This house is like creepy crawly central...always w/ the damn spiders!

One of our three cats, the one that was closest to me (Lulu) passed away.

Oddly enough, I'm not super broken up about it and didn't cry this time. Because I know she lived a long, good life and was well loved and taken care of (14 or 15 years). It's not as devastating, shocking, or saddening to me as when my mom died a couple years ago (because that was more personal and my mom was such an amazing person, and my mom also died young, in her 60's).

 

[Beanz]

ughh tomorrow is the first day of school which means i have to wake up at the crack of dawn (6:30 am) and be in a constant state of anxiety everyday.

 

[xSuperMario64x]

depression still kickin my *** and I highkey forgot to write my Hero's Crossing story so now I only have like one hour to do it

 

[Croconaw]

I gave up writing that Hero’s Crossing story. It sucks I couldn’t even come up with a general idea so I could at least attempt to write a story. I’m not a writer at all. Who knew this task would drive me insane for a day thinking about what to write.
