Your corgi is out of rehab and feeling great! Staying with my folks until Friday night.

I wanted to make this thread since America has a holiday tomorrow, and ya know, this time of year can fuck you up sometimes.

This is your space to talk about anything cool you have going on, vent, or get some support.

Remember, you are loved stalin-heart

    I’ve achieved a state of almost zen depression where I care about absolutely nothing and don’t even have enough energy to feel bad about it. I honestly see no reason to do anything or even live anymore.

    I’ve been feing hopeful, public workers of my province have been striking, and have been purposely gathering in some city centers, and the general response has been really strong solidarity for those striking. It fills me with hope to see people gather and collectivize, and even be supported by the broader public.

      Glad you’re sober! Im almost on 2 weeks, if you ever need an ear I’m around. Sorry to hear things are rough. Im waiting on a diagnosis too - I did a full mental health screening recently, but might not be able to get the results cause I have no insurance.

      Sending love and good vibes! meow-hug

    Classes ended for the week today, I’m back home now until Sunday night. Good to be with family again! For me, tomorrow’s Indigenous Genocide Day should be better than last year’s (when I had to visit my ex’s large Italian extended family for dinner.) Having it just be a few people I know and love - with food I am guaranteed to like - is much better.

    Once again, glad you’re doing better, Corgi meow-hug

    Not a hexbearer myself but I feel the need to puke this out.

    Not too great. Materially I’m okay, but the hitlerian pro-colonizer narratives all around me make me go all doom and gloom.

    Death to Israel.

    Death to Amerikkka.

    Executive dysfunction continues to kick my ass. Finishing achool and any hope for a future where I’m not on disability are pretty much out the window.

    But I’m in a great, loving romantic relationship and I don’t really care about any of the rest of that anymore. So shits good

    I should have never come home for thanksgiving. Both my parents have gone full right wing and have been saying that they won’t do holiday shopping in person cause of all the “thugs” that will rob you in the parking lot. Endless dog whistles when they just hate black people. They’ve become completely brain broken by consuming local news.

    Other than that I’ve been alright.

      I’ve never been more glad that I have the privilege of choosing who is actually my family, found or otherwise, and that I’ll be enjoying good times with them tomorrow in place of the MAGA chuds I’ve disowned from my biological origins.

      Jesus christ, I skipped Thanksgiving this year and I’m very thankful. Will be attending one of my queer friends’ family Thanksgiving which should be much… more chill

    I am doing well for the most part, aside from the crippling fear of defaulting on a mortgage or losing our power. For a while I couldn’t find a job, and we had to go on SNAP. This helped us a lot, and was providing around $1000 a month for groceries. We were able to catch up on debts and bills, and didn’t have to worry about food. Then I got a decent job (yay) and our monthly SNAP benefits went down to $250 (nooooo). System working as intended, but now we aren’t eligible and fell behind after some illnesses and other stuff. Now it’s like playing catch up every week, trying to pay the most immediately needed bills (and forgetting the others exist due to stress). I’m happy and thankful for having income now, I just wish it hadn’t completely fucked things.

    Anxious. Hopeful, but anxious. Even a planned move that’s been years in the making under ideal conditions is still moving and moving sucks and a lot can go wrong. sweat

    I’ll also miss posting here. Going to be too busy, mostly off grid, and I refuse to fiddle with any phone version of this site. avoheart

        Right at the end of the month. I’ll probably do some earnestly sentimental farewell post before I go, but I’m not saying I’ll never return. I may even put up with posting on a phone when my next novel is complete because I’d love to share it with comrades.
