Just your random queer non-binary Midwesterner
This is my worst holiday. Always filled with negative memories and let downs. This year is nothing different. Got screwed over closing the store solo (im the only lead) and just want to cry, lol, but i am thankful for the friends who are checking on me. You're never alone 💛

Last massive week Christmas retail. Next week is cleanup, clearance, and changing displays. Quite honestly, this is one of the few times I miss working in a school setting. Having the holidays off, extra time to reset. I do miss daycare. I really did love it. It just wasn't sustainable for me

Can yall remind me to never take a video call from my ex husband ever again??
That POS almost had me convinced he wasn't a narcissist and that we had turned a new leaf. That just maybe he was finally going to file our divorce.

Nope!!! He just wanted to see me so he could feel good again

Best friend is over tonight. Making gingerbread houses, having hot chocolate, and sharing work stories. This is the night we needed!!!

So in case it's not common knowledge/sense ... umm, a breakroom is meant for quiet. Maybe let's be considerate of other people and not leave devices on at top volume??

Just a thought cause ya know...retail is overstimulating

Went from sleeping 12 hours one night to barely 4 hours the next. Doesn't matter how exhausted I am, if I stretch before bed, or take supplements. My sleep schedule is fucked and I'm going to blame retail for it

Ahh holidays. The time of year where I shock everyone with my "sorry, no plans for me. Not a huge fan of the holidays and I dont speak to my parents so im spending the day alone 🥰."

The look on their faces every time!! 😂😂

The White House website just keeps going downhill. It’s an embarrassment.

Wow. Straight up Nazi/Stalin propaganda bullshit.
The White House web site now includes a "media bias" tracker with a leaderboard and an offender hall of shame. www.whitehouse.gov/mediabias/

Ya know what's lowkey fun? When you get yourself back and you can see your narcissistic ex spiral thru multiple emotions trying to find a way to manipulate you so he can get you back.
Sir you think I want you back?? 🤣🤣 gtfo

Nothing says the holidays like your ex trying to talk to you 🤬

REMINDER IF YOU MUST SHOP AT RETAIL STORES!

Im sorry, we cant be your personal shopper. Ill give you the general area if where you need to look, but please use your damn eyes and look yourself. If you come up to me with a list and tell me to "find it," no.

Im not ok and my friends keep asking how they can help. Honestly? I want to tell them I need a new brain and a very long vacation. But truly there's nothing anyone can really do...my therapist and I are working together and it's gotta be done by me...I havent felt this mentally off in decades

My day started super manic. Fought off a panic attack the first half of the day.

By the end of the day I had happy tears. A few people from my team made some comments telling me I was their favorite leader and they appreciated how I treated them and lead them.

I stay for them. I hate my job

Capitalism and retail might take me out this season.

Not sure if it's a date or sleeping with the fishes??

Honestly ill take either one. They can decide

Started watching #SoulMates on netflix....I think that's enough TV for now.

Like first 2 episodes were alright? But now it's just way to weird and f-ed up for me.

Been binging turkish shows lately. The one im currently on translates to "Another Self" I believe? Im nearly done with the second season and I can already tell it's going to hurt 😭 its so good!!!

Im at the stage of grief where im just angry at everything. Divorce is so foreign to me and I don't know why I thought he'd leave me alone. I left in April but every few weeks he messages me. Honestly he's making this so much harder now on himself. Like freaking move on dude! Im done!

If you're ever curious about the best way to experience the best Mid-Western hospitality, just hang out around Lambeau field on game day in Green Bay

Leaked document. Yikes, things are about to get much worse. It looks like we’re on the verge of becoming a military state across the country. Step out of line, and the man come and take you away.

Anyone else just living life trying to not succumb to the anger that building inside them?? Cause same!

It’s been really disheartening to see the things people say about those who use SNAP. Many seem to have little understanding of why the program exists in the first place.

Life lately:
- dealing with massive work anxiety thanks to my boss
- my ex-husband is attempting another comeback
- depression is getting bad again
- there was a shooting right outside my window today (no one got hurt)

I no longer need a vacation. I just want mentally stability and a stronger back.

Had a good scream on the drive home from work. Might have a cry tonight later to make it full circle of experiencing every emotion today.

Under Mike Johnson, the House has conducted just 20 days of business in the last 16 weeks and refused to swear in Democrat Adelita Grijalva.

Don't forget what this is really about: keeping the release of the Epstein Files at bay.
