Found a very cool pastel cat sweater at the bins but I have literally nothing that matches it well, so I always struggle to make outfits with it lol

#ootd #pastel #I really really want to SELL CLOTHES I keep talking about selling clothes.. its just such a process..hhhhhhh #Because you have to take pictures. edit the pictures. list them somewhere. write descriptions. choose a price. advertise the fact you listed #it somewhere. Repeat with literally hundreds of items (since I get bulk clothes at the bins and etc.). I have a lot of cool stuff that I thi #nk people into similar styles would want to buy. and I always need money to fund art and healthcare expenses and eventually moving to a diff #erent place someday. replacing broken electronics. etc. etc. So a wise decision is 'well sell a lot of the old clothes you have'. It is so #difficutl with my specific functioning issues though since it's such a long process and also packing things up. taking them to the post offi #ce etc. takes timing since I always have to be driven by roomates and stuff. etc. etc. #I think the way I was considering getting around this was to sell clothing in 'packs' like.. A pack of 5 or 6 matching items the same shade #of pink. or all green items with flowers so it's the same 'nature theme'. Or even selling full outfits or something. so that way I can kind #of bundle items. Instead of the effort of photograohing and listing literally 50 individual items. Turn them into 5 packs of 10. Or 10 packs #of 5. etc. ? But I think I never got too far with that because I was uncertain how that'd actually go over in terms of whether people would #buy groups of items instead of just individual. Especially whole outfits or something like. I think you'd get a wider audience giving people #more individual choice to choose seperate things instead of putting them together and going 'this is just what you get' or etc. #but I could also see it being cool. You already have some guaranteed stuff that matches. They have a theme. Especially if it's something you #like. Love brown themed mori kei items? here's 5 of them already together. etc. etc. etc. #ANYWAY. Came to mind because as much as I love anything with cats on it that's a light color. I also am chronically warm natured due to my #health issues so I overheat immensely if I wear sweaters. even in the winter I don't wear that many layers lol. So a sweater like this is ju #st impratical for me outside of taking one or two outfit photos with it. but I don't think I could ever actually wear it even if I really wa #nt to. But it's nice! and very cool!! so a good candidtate for selling. Give it to someone who would be happier to have it than I would in #the sense that maybe they could actually WEAR it lol. #ANYWAY... rhgh #everything......... difficult.......... whye #Also sweater is too hot for me and doesn't match anything I own even though it's perfect and I love cats..... whye....... cruele world #self

tbh i think it’s so funny that if Kusuo were real, he’d be a year older than me

#kusuo is canonically in his late 20’s!!! #age wise we had a similar experience I guess. Same geopolitical events were happening at that time #But totally different perspective obvs #idk. it honestly probably doesn’t make much difference #especially considering the cultural difference #but I like that Kusuo also didn’t get any modern touch technology of his own until his late teens #like yaaay me too! #I too staunchly and stubbornly refused to get an iphone. not that I had the money to get it myself anyways. Also like Kusuo! #who gets an allowance as a teen (which i didn’t get) but to be fair #that’s probably thanks to Kuusuke #indirectly anyways. considering they can’t afford the house they live in and only have it because of him #what am I rambling about #anyways #yeah I relate to Kusuo a lot #He is out there a depressed twenty something looking for meaning in his life I just know it #and of course. The meaning is connecting with other people #rargh screaming crying erc #*etc

I did beta testing for sparkle and really liked using her so I wanted her. I just got so many characters back to back like kafka, e6 dhil, black swan...I wanted them all and glad I got them

well miss sparkle definitely wanted to be stubborn as hell and decided she was actually going to give me up, let me down, run around, and try to desert me.....she made me cry, tried to say goodbye, told a lie and definitely hurt me. and my wallet.

I had to spend money on that fool. she made ME the fool. her ass is so annoying not just in the game but in my pulls too!!!! as expected tbh. I can hear her laughing at me.

#words #hsr #she sent yanqing home first at pretty high pity. i finished everything in the game. and only managed to get to around 30 pity for her #there's not much time left so i had to pay for her 💀 took 78. BUT SHES SUCH A GOOD SUPPORT just wish i can get her lightcone but doubt it #nothing else is as good as that one. but shes still good support especially for my sp hungry e6 dhil #problem is now.....i want acheron AND e6 jingliu lmao. #REMEMBER KIDS: SPEND MONEY WISELY im allowed to spend on this game. im an adult with a job and get $2k back in taxes this year #TREAT YOURSELF. if you can afford it. dont gacha if you cant pay bills or have food. if you can afford it go crazy i guess idk #know when you have a gambling addiction and get help. if you can choose responsibly then you're fine. i gacha responsibly i promise #im just mad its sparkle that took my money instead of spending it on working towards e6 jingliu maybe #i did manage to e6 dhil without spending so i mean. is possible but also keep wanting other characters too fbddbhdhdhd

Did you know spotify supports isr_el's occupation?

unfortunately that doesn’t surprise me in the slightest since they have spotify charts there much like apple music as well and since there isn’t much music platforms available atm i do feel like it’s quite hard to stop using these

#i could be wrong #if i had money for a subscription to another site #i would do that instantly #i am not the biggest fan of spotify especially when it comes #to how they pay artists and how they don’t intend to change that #i would pretty much say that it’s impossible to #not stumble upon a music platform that supports israhell #since zionists are so deep in the music industry that is hard to combat that #but it’s obviously important to be aware of what these companies are doing i am not saying other wise #but if there are alternatives it would be nice #asks #anon

I have got to get myself a strap. I'd look so damn good wearing it.

Bet I'd look so great fucking with it too. Whether it be their mouth or their hole, I want them desperate and cockdrunk that it will the only thing on their sweet little mind for hours.

#vision thinks #mlm nsft #nblm nsft #gay nsft #queer nsft #trans nsft #transmasc nsft #ftm nsft #hhhhh.... keep thinking about this #honestly? especially the aspect of looking good with it #but of course the use is a bonus :3c #god i really want to get one but i'm trying to be wise with my money ;-;

even tho i feel conflicted lol i do agree w u ab nora and george. honestly the episode that makes me think that the most is the episode where nora tries to be a SAHM. ik it was played for laughs like "oh he's just lazy and loved the lunches she was making" but derek was REALLY happy that she was home all the time and I don't think he'd ever admit it but I do think he really actually just did love having an active/participant?? mom (bc I dont think abby was ever that for them I mean she doesn't even have partial custody????). not saying she should have quit her job and dropped everything bc that probably wasn't even possible financially honestly and I dont think they're like, bad PEOPLE, but there has to be a better way to handle this...... idk real life is complicated and we can't always be what we want to be and I have no idea what I would even do in their position and ur right when you say they're not the WORST, but still. I really don't know lol this is why I'm kind of conflicted but anyway yeah sorry for all this I just wanted to say I agree 😅

Oh I agree. Life is messy and you can't control everything. I'd get it for Abby and George if Derek and Edwin were planned and Marti was an accident. But if they all were planned. Heres the thing I'm not saying that you can't have kids and a career. However, having kids is a commitment. It stops being about you. Kids come first because anything you do or don't do affects them(For the Venturi family you times that by 3). You choose to bring up and rase this person. So if you have kids and a full time big career you need to be smart about it. Three kids with full time big careers is a lot. Especially if the timing and age of said kids are taken into an account(managing would be more easier if said kids were all closer in age and or older), derek was headed into being a young teen. Edwin is heading into middles schooler and baby marit. It's not surprising that Abby and George got a divorce. If they willingly had three kids with full time careers, than it tells a lot about who they are as people. If I had to guess if marti was planned, she was probably a lets try to salvage a our marriage with another baby baby. Of course didn't work. I also have to guess Abby was the one who worked a lot. And considering the time period( late 90s early 2000s). That is probably what started a lot of fights. My guess is George and Abby divorced because they both worked too much. Casey's parents (different situation but still problem because Casey and Lizzie are not close in age), probably because Dennis worked too much and Nora didn't see him a lot and or the kids if (I had to guess Lizzie is an accident baby). So when she isn't working she and Casey are probably doing a lot of the heavy lifting. During and after the divorce probably a lot was put on Casey and Derek to take care of their siblings considering no matter how Casey and Derek act towards their siblings they still 100% adore them. It's not ideal but as separate situations it could have been manageable( the situation probably would have been better if George and Nora stayed single or met and dated other people who didn't have a family and didn't mind that they did. But obviously not realistic). Nora and George in their infinite wisdom in four months( it would have been more understandable if they dated for at least a year) decided to get married and blend their families. Two teenagers, two kids in a middle school range, and a 5 year old. 5 kids with two adults with jobs. That means in the course of four months they quickly dated, liked each other, "fell in love" and got married. Lots of changes over the course of four months and after. So it's not surprising Derek and Casey have issues. Life is messing of course. But as the adults Nora and George should have done better. Especially since they both divorced parents. But again we are shown that they are oblivious and if I had to guess don't think things through. Which makes them emotionally neglecteful and or careless. Your right they are not bad people. But that doesn't make it ok( not saying you did. I'm rambling) Love your comment to me. I love rambling and the life with derek situation just makes me think.

#My thoughts #Me rambling #life with derek #dasey #I just hate people who have a lot a kids #Or people who say and do have big families while having big careers because #They don't think of the emotional and money wise realities of said situations #Especially when their kids are not close in age #This is probably a lot of reasons why people get divorce or why kids have a lot of issues #When I say big families I mean more than two kids. #Three is manageable if the first two are close in age and are almost teens or teens

looking at working abroad this year bc i need the language practice but just getting more and more overwhelmed by the visa stuff, and then the repeat of applying for residency and bank accounts and renting and all that stuff that led to so many break downs when i was in spain two years ago...

currently a visa could take up to 50 days to receive. but what company would wait up to 50 days for a new employee to come over and start work (and training, at that) when there may be more suitable candidates already local? or at least already in the same country? and it wouldn't be so bad but as far as i know i need to have a job confirmed to apply for the right working visa - i can't apply and then find a job, which would put me in a much better position to move abroad

applying for dual nationality is just as big a headache, too. i have two options but one i have no evidence for and the other, well, im just... less attached to that 'identity' and am not convinced it's worth the hassle, to be totally honest.

everyone, including myself, wants me to be abroad. it's pretty much a necessity if i'm going to carry on with my language MA next year because i get no practice in locally - no one around me speaks my languages. i was proud the other day to see my spanish level had not yet decreased (à la eu framework) but ancjeiakkx i know it isn't going to stay that way. i have eleven months until i would start my course. that's eleven months to lose a language (or two) in.

i am. starting to feel stressed again. well, the break from it was nice while it lasted...

#helia rants #otherwise the language work is in london. but. i wanted to be saving money this year. which. does not happen in london :) #the rent would cripple me and my bank account before ive event started earning :') #so yeah. idk what to do at the moment. #local jobs are just as hard to come by and with the whole ya know economic situation here.. moving out to a more convenient city #even if only an hour away is not wise. especially in winter. my god just picturing the bills aint worth it #i should never have taken a break from studying

splatfest sucks actually why am i playing this game right now

#the vibes are FUN! but holy shit is it not fun to lose over and over again :/ #not to mention how shit the servers are right now. sploon 2 never had this issue :/ #and also sad to see the shifty stations didnt come back :( those were the best part of sploon2 splatfests. especially the love vs money one #and this is kind of a general feel ive had in splat3 so far- everything feels a lot more unbalanced matchmaking-wise #maybe its because its still the first month of release and the experienced players are still getting seperated from the new ones #but i feel like i havent had a genuinely good match since i got the game. one team always decimates the other. no good back and forth.

WAIT i saw ur post earlier about waking up with a headache and forgot to reply but HOPE you're feeling better. also STRESS is draining and not having the energy to be online is so fucking real. but hi how are you i miss you i think of you lots i hope you're doing okay 🫶🏻

Oh, I'm fine now, thanks! :3 The headache was absolutely killing me yesterday, but it's gone now. Turns out it was 'that time of the month thing' after all, so... *sighs*.

But maaaan~ I've really missed you too and hope you're doing okay yourself, aside from all the stressful stuff and all. 😅❤️ I don't know about you, but I wouldn't mind going on a vacation somewhere far away, nice and chill where one could just settle down and relax and not think about... anything lol. 😎✌️ At least for a while.

#replies #hotdadlicense #i'm not in the most ideal situation in my life right now tbh #i'm unemployed and dropped out of school and well. i've pretty much just stayed at home and haven't done much else #i don't entirely mind it cause now i can do stuff that i actually want to lmao. but other than that it's a little stressful #especially money-wise so. i met up with a doctor and a nurse and a social worker a while ago and discussed my situation #and i expressed hope for getting into a rehab. for extra support and also to help me get re-employed/re-educated etc. #because i don't feel like i can do this alone right now #so we're applying for that now and i'm hoping i'd get a chance at it and starting again #so yeah. right now it's a little tough for me but nothing i can't handle on my own #i just hope things will get better from here from now on (and not worse) #anyway. that's enough about it. thanks for inboxing me luv ya <333

Took my cat to the vet just for him to be diagnosed with tummy hurted and said he needs different food

#emma posts #apparently it’s an allergic reaction #the vet said you should stick to the ‘big three’ brands or whatever #iams you fucking bitch. half assed slut. we’re trying purina #the vet was like ‘yeah. switch back to his old food and transition him to something better from there #and gave me a box of cat probiotics #he got his old man bloodwork done and he’s fine #but now he has a bald spot again because they had to shave him #so guess who has to buy cat food when she gets back to the apartment? #tried to feed my cat healthier senior food and he liked the taste but his tummy got mad #maybe it would have gone better if he hadn’t PICKED OUT ALL THE NEW STUFF EVERY TIME I FED HIM >:((( #you are supposed to eat both TOGETHER when transitioning diets you picky idiot #that’s probably why tummy hurted! >:/ #baby boy is going to have me paying more money for him as he gets old #and not even because he has issues! he’s fine! really good health wise especially for his age. but him being picky gave him tummy hurt #he’s so lucky I love him so so much <3 #i try to give him new foods slowly and he just decides that he only wants the new stuff two days in #will ignore the old brand until it’s all that’s left in his bowl and sometimes will STILL ignore it #him being picky when it stops him from eating my human food: 👍 him being picky about his cat food this time: 👎

I got Drunk tonight because idk, grown adult, I can do that and I'm currently doing the thing I do where I sober up as much as possible before I go to sleep. wanna go to sleep. it is So Many Hours past my normal bed time. but I was also literally still drink in hand past my normal bed time and alcohol has a half life of 4-5 hours.

#remember that one time I tried to tell my therapist #'hey I'm really concerned that I got wasted on Friday night because I was stressed- and then didn't have a hangover the next day #and I'm really worried about my brain relearning the pattern that alcohol is a solution to stress especially as a former alcoholic' #and she instead tried to spend the entire fucking session arguing with me about the fact that my real problem is That I Care Too Much #About People. About Society. #and didn't engage at all with the topic of 'hey the former alcoholic is a lil afraid they're not going to be able to keep 'former' ' #it's fine. it's /fine/ #today was just hard and then I got drunk and that was pleasant and chances are #because I am doing this- I will not have a hangover tomorrow either #and I am once again just reaffirming for my lil pattern loving brain #that drinking a large amount of gin very fast does actually solve my problems #it doesn't. also my problems can't be solved #that sounds melodramatic. I'm just- I was just sad today about my dad being dead. that kind of 'can't be solved' #and a lot of feelings about class that again- are unsolvable problems #you can't 'solve' the problem that like- I grew up poor in a poor area #and married into a family that is well off #and like- have done well for myself career wise #and so now I feel like a weird lil duck with a weird lil relationship to money #but whomst amongst us *isn't* a weird lil duck with a weird lil relationship to money #HMM? #HMMMMM??? #but also 'done well for myself career wise' only means like... within the career I have
