Ughhh I always manage to forget how *long* it takes to draw

Just spent two hours on a drawing that should have been simple, and still isn’t quite done, either. It’s sketched, but not shaded at all, which is going to take super long, too

And it’s not even a good drawing either. It’s turning out so poorly 😭

What would be the worst song/alarm/noise to wake up to?

(Assuming it's not some sort of emergency thing, like 'the sound of someone breaking in' or a fire alarm or whatever, because I think those are too easy of options)

I worked at a summer camp last summer, and one of the counselors woke their group up with the Burger King ad song (this lol) and I feel like it doesn't get worse than that, but I wanted to see other people's ideas

I have no chance at dating rn 😭 (No self-pity, lighthearted, funny post, not sad, incel-y post!)

I have a group of friends, kind of, that I hang out with, so I have no real reason to go out and meet people, but none of my friends are really dateable.

The main issue is that my friend group is technically my older brother's and his girlfriend's, so I just hang out with them and their friends. Idk how well I know "bro code" stuff, but I think dating your brother's little sister is one of the 'no's. And even if it's not, they're all a few years older than me anyway, so it's really unlikely they'd take any interest in me lol. I'm very much the baby of the group, despite fitting in pretty well and (I think. hope?) people liking having me around

To clarify, I'm not, like, broken up about this, I honestly think it's more funny than anything else (I've got time to date later, so I don't mind "wasting" time by not dating for a while longer. No reason I have to date now)

WHO are clothes made for 😭

I swear, it should not be this hard to find clothes that fit and look decent and are NOT super expensive

I can’t wear like 99% of jeans because there’s always something wrong with them. I have the supposed “ideal” (bleh 🤢) body with bigger hips and a small waist, which would be great, except for the fact that nothing fits because of it. The obvious answer when something is too big for your waist is a belt right?? NOPE. Because belts don’t fit me very well, and even if I find the one magical belt that does fit, the pants or jeans or shorts still look awful because now all the extra waist material is just bunched up, and because the belt is too long to stay tucked into my belt loops

And then there’s formal wear. Sometimes I want (need, really) to wear a blazer and nice button-down shirt for an event. Fine. Just kidding. The pants don’t fit, like I said, but somehow neither does the shirt or the blazer, and I just look like I’m wearing my dad’s clothes instead, and it looks so square and bad (somehow even the more fitted shirts do like idek 😭)

Like I don’t know what kind of woman they think fits these clothes, but it is definitely not me (or any woman that I’ve ever talked to about clothes)

(For context, this isn’t actually a super angry vent, more exasperation and I think it’s kinda funny still. Please don’t think I’m taking this super duper seriously)

Anyone here into old cars?

I'm writing a (really bad, dumb [purposefully so!]) story and want to add in a part about some pretty expensive, old car. The more specifications the better (like the engine type and stuff, especially anything that would not be obvious with just a glance)

So I need a car that is:

- old

- expensive

- has a lot to write about (I want to add an unreasonable amount of detail about this car, and also want the character to know more than they reasonably should from just seeing it across a parking lot)

I'd ask Google, but tbh, idek what I'd type into the search bar for this lol

Worst fanfics you've ever read?

My friend group is doing a fanfic reading night this weekend, and all of the crappy fanfics I've read have been way too long to share. I figure at least someone here will have an option or two that I can share. Doesn't matter what it's a fic for, I'm open to literally anything so long as it's really silly/poorly written/otherwise entertaining

I would give anything to know what people think/say about me

Not that I could see myself changing because of it to make myself more likable, or changing how I see myself.

But I just want to know. Out of curiosity I guess? Idk. I just really wish I had a way to know what people actually think about me and say about me when I’m not there. I think it’d be neat to learn what they see in me/don’t see in me that I feel would be more obvious or something like that

It’s currently 4am where I live, so feel free to completely ignore this if it doesn’t make sense. It’s something I’ve been thinking about for a while, but potentially not something I can explain well when sleep-deprived lol

Good lord I am never having kids

I’m at work rn, currently arguing with these kids who HAVE to play Roblox or else they will apparently die (or at least crash out)

They don’t even get quoted when they are playing Roblox 😭

This is a nightmare. I have eleven kids all demanding my attention at every second because not all eleven computers have Roblox on them, and because they don’t know the password to get onto the computers (idk how they keep signing out), and because they don’t know what games there are because they’re all baby games, and because they don’t know how to get to YouTube. YouTube.

I am awful at this 😭 😭

Like not in a “I hate people” or “I don’t think I can trust people” or whatever whiny, insecure reasoning, just… I don’t want to have to make friends because I don’t enjoy friendships.

I’ve had friends before and all, and it’s not like it’s some torture to have them. But it does just kind of feel like a chore, though. Like I *have* to talk to people and put energy into keeping in touch and doing things with them

It just feels not worth it, for whatever reason. Like, I’m sure it probably comes easier to other people and makes people happy, but I don’t know that I can really get to that point ever. Anyone else, or am I just weird?

I can’t do anything right now because of it, and it’s so annoying. Like I can’t move much because it hurts and because I can’t trust the biggest size overnight pad to do its job

I have at *least* 1,680 days left of this, and it SUCKS. Even once I’m finally done with periods, then I get whatever symptoms of menopause instead, so yippee for that too

If skirts weren’t so fun and swingy, I’d really hate being a woman

Currently trying to make sure I remember to wish a friend happy birthday on the 4th, but I know that remembering it *today* means I’ll have just enough time to forget before his actual birthday arrives 😭

Curse my terrible memory 😭 😭

I haven’t deep cleaned my room in a very long time, so I’m doing that and my closet (which is technically a walk-in). It has all been a lot more than I wanted to do today, and I still have some stuff left to get done 😭

I can never own a house because I think I’ll ruin it by not cleaning it enough all the time

After this picture was taken, she informed me that the first letter is y. The word was YouTube

The round before, the word was “Poppy’s Playtime”. Which she asked me partway through how to spell

I have been in school for a lottt longer than I’ve wanted to be, which, whatever, I need a degree and can suck it up despite having been massively burnt out for the past three years

But this semester has been awful. 3 of my 4 classes have been alright. Not really fun, but nothing too demanding or crazy. But this one stupid class has been a nightmare. I finished the final project a week ago, made sure to check the rubric before turning it in to make sure I had everything.

I got my final grade back today, and I’m genuinely so upset right now. I got a C- on it for no good reason. The teacher gave feedback, so I read it to see what I could have done so badly on, and most of the feedback was talking about the things I did well (which seems to be most of it? Like there was a lot of positive feedback in there). The main issue I could see in the feedback was that I needed headings for the essay. Headings that were not mentioned in the rubric, and honestly should not matter. It’s an essay. It’s not that hard to follow along with. The other thing was that I didn’t “create the data yourself” like??? That’s not how anything works, and especially not anthropological/sociological patterns. Creating the data myself is how people get misinformation and how bigotry and such crap spreads. That’s *why* I spent hours researching this. That’s why I “draw on outside sources”

Anyway, none of this matters to anyone but me, but I’m just so so mad that this is the only class that I won’t get a 4.0 in, and now it’s just going to drag down my GPA and make it harder for me to try to apply for internships this summer and such

I tried to rewind to see if he’d do it again and he purposely went to paw at his face. He’s never done this for any other show I’ve watched (just the Cat TV videos on YouTube lol) so not really sure what his deal is here

Anyway this is entirely uninteresting and inconsequential, but maybe a couple other people will find this as funny as I do

Mine is just always terrible and always changing. Saturday, I woke up at 5pm and went to bed Sunday at 10:30am. Sunday, I woke up at 7:30pm, went to bed at 9:30pm and slept until 1:30am today.

So to put it simply: I sleep weird hours and mostly during the day

Which is really fun (“fun”) sometimes because I’ll wake up super disoriented, look at my clock, and have to figure out if it’s am or pm while not quite being able to remember when I went to sleep in the first place
