Colorful and hopefully optimistic but maybe hateful occasionally

By the way, I think I know why my mom snapped at me

I was grossed out by a napkin coming up with more than milk on it. Fur and stuff. I reacted a bit strongly, saying “that’s gross” and trying to go wash my hands quickly even though my mom was in the way

I bet it hurt her feelers

 

[littleoc]

I meant feelings but in this house we say feelers

We are children lol

I think I need to spend my money on getting it cleaned.

Allow me to be bossy for a moment. (Like ya have a choice :hug: :laugh:)
You do not need to clean that disaster
That is her house. Not yours.
The house is a result of HER life choices
You are not responsible for HER life choices
She has not made any attempt to change
You are not responsible for her REFUSAL
You need to save money to move out so you can begin your own life
In a clean, safe environment
Where you can be happy.

That does not make you selfish
It makes you a person who is making the best decision for HER

Hm.

Normally I'd agree, but I saw her really wanting to hire that therapist but not having the funds for... some reason. She never has more than a few hundred dollars at a time. And I think if she pays me back slowly it would be beneficial. I guess we'd see

It's not really money I can use on moving out anyway. It's student loan money, so I'd find myself saving it to pay back asap to reduce the interest. But hopefully I'll be in school for a bit so that should help

I'd act like she was taking a loan out with me. And ask her to help me with my birb for a bit

 

[littleoc]

What I need to do is get my license and get a job. Preferably a science job but maybe for now a library job if I can get one

Imagine spending all that money ... and your mom just messed the house up AGAIN.

Use any cash you get to help you move out. Really.

 

[littleoc]

I'll have a talk with her, @somerandomguy

I may end up asking my dad's parents for help anyway? Might even pressure my mom more

I dunno, I realize that's a possibility but something's definitely got to give. I could move out without that money

 

[littleoc]

It feels more like a donation, honestly. Can I get tax exemption for this?

I donate most my money away. I'm a bit too caring sometimes lol

But those farm animals really did benefit

Honestly I’ve been paying attention less and less to it. My sister’s husband’s family won’t be allowed to vote because of new laws that shouldn’t be allowed. I know what’s going on because I know how governments work. Unfortunately my sister’s husband thinks he shouldn’t vote, therefore the local government straight up has no reason to defend Native Americans in general because it doesn’t affect power anymore

Same at young people but at least their voting rights didn’t get mysteriously taken away

There’s a lot of fishiness lately. The current administration is defunding a lot of strange things

I probably shouldn’t start on that rant though

 

[littleoc]

Someone in my city put out an ad. He's 51 and just divorced and has three kids, only one of which will probably stay over because of age (youngster). Says he moved out with a roommate and it didn't work out, so now he's hoping for another one who pays rent on time

I bet there are a lot of ads like this

I hope this guy gets a good roommate though

Got really overwhelmed suddenly. Took three showers, washed clothes. Washed hands each time I touched something. Covered my iPhone in alcohol to clean it off

I’m getting frustrated with my brain. It was seeing the cracked hands from after Shay died. It was trying to retroactively clean out the millions of tiny bloody cracks

Gross
