  • I think emojis are my autistic special interest. I love looking at emojis, and researching what meanings people ascribe to emojis in certain contexts, and looking up what new emojis they'll add, and making little pictographic stories with emojis. Emojis are neat and it kind of pairs with my font obsession I've had since I was a kid just downloading new fonts to look at and not even install sometimes because I just liked looking at them.


  • It sucks because I know it could be worse, I've lived through worse and I have to walk by a homeless camp ever day to work like a too-on-the-nose reminder of what will happen if I ever stop working no matter how bad things get. It's dehumanizing, it wears down on the fucking soul and I think a lot of people, even in leftie spaces, really do not get quite how low it can get. Because think about it. Whose stories do you hear about? It's always the people who were in a rough spot, but hey y'know what they dug themselves out eventually with hard work and a will to survive! But why don't you ever hear about the people who didn't make it out? Oh. Right. They're not around to tell their story.


  • I'm in a similar situation and I think if you're "freaking out and skipping work" then I want you to know it's not your fault and you shouldn't feel bad that you're going through such a rough time with so little help that you snap like that. I don't know what the answer is when mental health issues are keeping you from functioning and you can't get any help that isn't just "pick yourself up by your bootstraps", or the same sentiment but worded more nicely, "drink water and take it one day a at a time". I know for me I'm tried of being told to take baby steps when I'm trying to tell people I just can't even do that sometimes, I can't just will myself to feel better and do better. I don't want to be depressing but honestly I don't think there is a "winning strategy", it's a fucking joke that anyone should have to go through this. But I hope you can get assistance, sorry for hijacking your post for my rant.




  • I'm thinking about just not going in to work. I have enough saved up to coast by for a bit, I'm just tired of having to work through everything I'm going through, for management to be so laughably incompetent, letting things pile up and get so bad that if the fire martial came he'd shut the place down, not that he ever seems to do his job eother, and still I'm the one getting harped on for not doing enough. Fuck it, good luck finding anyone that will do everything I did. I'm going to do a fools etrand and apply for disability again, but I'm not expecting anything. Seems like whenever I stop and think about how my life has gone it makes me laugh, like whoever wrote my script had a sick sense of humor and a love for twisted irony but it's hard not to just laugh at the absurdity of it.


  • I've been having morbid thoughts

    I was thinking how ridiculously easy it is to get ammo and gun parts where I live. Check a box that says "I'm over 21" and with no other scrutiny I can have ammo delivered right to my door without a signature. Sure, but ammo is nothing without a gun, right? There's a flea market here where you can do a private sale and skip a background check entirely if you want. Yet the Social Security website won't even let you log in past a certain time. So I developed this conspiracy theory that the reason guns are so accessible isn't because we care about the 2nd Amendment, but because guns are one of the easiest ways to kill yourself. Can't get on disability? Well... have you tried buying a gun and not wasting the governments time? The Nazis had it all wrong, you don't get rid of the "useless eaters" by rounding them up and making it obvious. You do it the Uncle Sam way, just make life so unbearable to those that can't fit in but make access to guns so easy that the problem "solves" itself.
