I began working as a librarian a few years before the pandemic. I quit the profession last year. We often said that people seemed to get worse after the pandemic, as if they now feel it's acceptable to lash out because they're "stressed" or "going through something". Some would apologize, and I'd kind of accept it because I had to, but I've been going through hell for years and I still manage to be polite. So I personally think these people fully intend to use this excuse before they even step out the door, and I think the, erm...political climate...as of late...has emboldened them. That's not to say that this behavior didn't exist before, it just seemed to become more pronounced.

Did you start a lot of threads on the old [asmb]?

Omg I'd forgotten about that, I'm pretty sure I was still on dial-up back then, too. -

I started very few threads. I was always too anxious. Still am. -
What did you have for dinner? NOT a discussion thread.

I'm waiting for my order of Thai food. I'll have some crab rangoons, curry puffs, and beef noodle soup. -

I found one last slice of pizza that my husband had missed!!! -
What Are You Thinking About Right Now?

I didn't know what this was so I had to look it up. Then I realized I was still logged into my client's YT channel. I don't want to have to explain some of the things that show up in your suggested feed after looking this kind of thing up. I noticed something about psychedelics but I think I managed to remove it all... Thanks guys. -

Are you maybe dehydrated? You probably already considered that but I always try to ask myself the stupid questions first because I figure I messed something up. -

The name sounds so familiar but it's been so long, why do I want to say Saddy had a Kagome avatar? Or that she posted in the HP book discussion thread? I felt sad hearing the news but I hate that my brain can't fill in those gaps. -
Leftover, mildly reheated pizza, and chicken nuggets. >.>

I'm thinking that I better get my ass moving and get in shape or I'll die on a mountain in September because my friend already told me that even if the hike is hard for me she won't let me turn back. -

"Dad used to leave his guns laying on the couch, it made me uncomfortable as a kid." Cousin: "He probably thought you were smart enough not to touch it." "It was literally pointing into the living room." Firearms are the Leading Cause of Death for Children in the United States But Rank No Higher Than Fifth in Other Industrialized Nations Also, fuck you. -

Yes, it's been a rough week. -

After all of the work and money I put into my mom and cousin's visit, they ignored me from 4:30pm Sunday to the time they went back home just before 9am yesterday. They left without even saying goodbye. But mom remembered to take the $40+ worth of beef jerky I made her, stored in one of my best tupperware containers that I'll never see again. The woman has 0 shame or empathy. As I haven't received even an FB message from my cousin, my take is that she's also upset with me. I got her number, though. She's back to sucking ass for money, because she's always been poor, a side effect of chronic unemployment. She tried to get my mom's inheritance, and now she's trying to get mine. She can have it, I have self-respect and a job. My parents weren't even going to leave me anything until my brother died, I'm so over it. -

My mom has been moping for the past 3 hours. Fortunately, she's going back home tomorrow. I'll still need vodka to get through the last 15 hours and whatever bullshit is to follow from my dad. -
I'm pretty sure I hung out in Babbling. I tried IB but I could never think of anything witty. 🤣

I haven't seen the new one yet, I'm a bit tired of Chris Pratt. He was fun in the Lego movie but now I just feel like Hollywood needs to give someone else a shot. -

Yeah, my mom and husband got it. We have Pepcid Complete on deck for such situations. 😅
