Just barely managed to get two hours of volunteer time in for the service learning project. Too many people showed up and we were almost done in half an hour—luckily we found other things to do.

Hopefully another two hours tomorrow. Then, idk, I guess I’ll just be four hours short like a tool.

I’m tired and I’m wet and I’m dirty and getting really insecure again and I just

kind of hope they don’t need me at work today.

I’m sad and lonely and getting really stressed out again @_@ and I don’t really have anything to do so I’m just sitting here stewing in bad feelings and I suspect it’s going to get a lot worse before long

hhhhhhh

my favorite thing is when I tell someone I’m anxious about something and they try to explain it away with something I ALREADY KNOW and when I try to say, thank you, sorry, but that doesn’t really help, and try to explain myself

they get annoyed

they roll their eyes or sigh or gesture with this tone like “well I TRIED to help you” or “god you’re fucking impossible to reason with”

yes thank you that is definitely going to make me stop being anxious :)

omg

the new itunes update has brought back the little bar that tells you how far along in the song you are

which is AWESOME

in the last version they took that away in the minimized player and it was very!! frustrating!! because if I wanted to move somewhere else in the song I had to maximize itunes and do it there and minimize it again, and I also had no clue how much time had gone by or was left in a song without going to the big player, which isn’t as big of a deal but was nice to know.

So they’ve brought that back in the mini player :DD This is very exciting for me.

I am lonely and sleepy :( I keep thinking “Maybe I’ll do X” but I’m too tired and the thought of doing it is really sad because there’s no one here

I just want someone in the house

People being angry about ~dem gays~ on Target’s Facebook.

I just want to give my two cents on this and tell you a story.

A couple weeks ago, I was hired at Target. I have a job at Target. Not a big deal right?

It is a big deal because i’m a transman.

It doesn’t take a genius to conclude that it’s hard for me, my brothers, and sisters to get a job. There are legal restraints regarding the job and if you don’t pass, it’s hard to be taken seriously at a job interview.

Right on the application, it asks what your preferred name is. It also asks if there is anything that target should know. I put the fact that I am a transman, expecting not to get a call because usually when you put that down, people will throw out the application. I got TWO interviews.

At the interview, they asked me about it. I told them I am on hormones and they told me that they didn’t care. Not in the sense that they don’t emotionally care, but that it didn’t matter. I was male and that’s all that mattered. They also told me that they give sex same couples benefits in states that do not recognize them as a married couple.

At my job orientation, I was not misgendered once. Even my supervisors who weren’t sure of my gender avoided pronoun use, which I found only happens when you’ve had pronoun training. They gave me a name tag with my preferred name and didn’t ask questions. I felt safe and respected, which is huge for a trans* person.

TLDR: Target is amazing not just for the LGB, but also the T. Shop there for the rest of your life.

More reasons why I like working at Target.

I’m actually really happy though because I’m drawing the Psiioniic and I actually drew someone who looks like an older and more tired Sollux

I have this image of Sollux in my head

and I can see him turning into this person in 15 or 20 years or so

and that is really cool because it means I am getting better at likenesses and getting down what I have in my head and depicting age

(I’m not getting a whole lot better at noses tho)

(I still really fucking suck at noses)

Thu, 16 May 2013 18:02:01 -0700

I like watching stupid romantic comedies

but the problem is like

there’s always this girl who’s reluctant and a guy who goes out of his way to get on her good side

and she’ll give an excuse not to do something he asks her to do and he’ll like… find a way to negate that

like “I have to clean the house” and he’ll go “okay I’ll just help you clean”

(and in this case he invites his soccer team to come in and clean and??? like wow no even if I really did have to clean I would NOT want strangers coming into my house to clean for me fuck off)

but like

what if she just doesn’t want to and doesn’t know how to say that

it’s always set up like “aww he’s earning her love and encouraging her to be more open” or whatever

and it’s like??? dude what if she is straight up not interested this is just kind of skeevy

bleh

Thu, 16 May 2013 17:08:26 -0700

I looked it up

I have not had a combo of good days more than about a day and a half long before heading back into iffy or outright really shitty days since March 31.

That’s over a month and a half now with either stretches of really shitty days or iffy days with the occasional good day sprinkled in between—I don’t even get the chance to feel optimistic before my brain shits on me again.

It shows no signs of lessening.

I am really fucking through with this bullshit.
