lol nvm i’m in a fullblown depression episode and i couldn’t stop crying for hours and i had to use some of my emergency money (of like $40 lol) to get half off katsubi cause i’m unable to leave my bed.
the thing that just set me off today was the fact that i have to choose between certain grocery stores so i can afford food, and i can’t afford to get everything i need and have a coffee with a friend. which is trivial but i’m back in the poverty bracket again so it’s already traumatizing lol.
i’m going to play the sims and hopefully i can feel something.
def having a hard time not being as financially free as i could be. i know i have to wait for ACC to get to me about a psychologist assessment but man I’m struggling to not feel suffcocated by the lack of financial freedom i used to have.
i have to calculate absolutely everything and i did to an extent back when i was working but now it’s like, choosing between heating vs eating. or if i can enjoy a coffee with a friend at the library. i’m to tired of feelng stuck and like i’m struggling.
Having your own personal blog is honestly quite a nice change of pace compared to Reddit. I could put a funny GIF of George Bush getting hit by a shoe on here and the worse case scenario is that no one even notices.
You put that on a big subreddit and you get your eyes gouged out and a heap of political discourse underneath your post.
the common name “fools gold” for iron pyrite is funnier than we give credit for. imagine scientists discover a new metal and they’re like “We’re calling this Copper for Idiots”
I’m getting better with not buying as many takeaways and saving money but i couldn’t stand homemade oatmilk cause there’s no thickness and it’s overly watery. i had some xanham gum for when i was gonna do some skin care stuff. So I added some into my batch yesterday and it worked enough to not hate it. i’ll work with ratios and etc when i do another batch but if this can help while i need an iced coffee or iced matcha and making bubble teas then i’ll take cause i cannot afford a $4 carton of it atm.
