Last week, I learned one single friendship bracelet pattern. Now I'm forcing myself to learn how to draw PATIENTLY and SLOWLY instead of trying to sloppily rush to the end result.

I don't know what I'm doing with wigglypaint, but I'm finally not hating working with a digital art program. Also, warning for surreal melty eyeball thing? Not particularly graphic but still.
Makes me think of an egg.

Made this... pseudo ice cream? Berries, banana, and some whey protein powder because I struggle to eat sometimes. Tasty but it's definitely more of a frozen smoothie than an actual ice cream.

Getting covid after five years of successfully dodging it is infuriating in the weirdest way. Despite having been vaccinated, complying with base safety measures, and now only having very light symptoms, I'm so deeply angry.

The damnation of living with my uncle is that he is genuinely trying to be helpful, but he's helpful in the way that a four year old is helpful: Not at all.
It doesn't help that we're likely both on the spectrum, either. In the most incompatible fashion possible. Bless me with patience, I need it.

It's half past midnight and I'm TRYING to lay on the floor and stare at the ceiling in utter despair, but my cat keeps biting my ankles and crying for me to give him a second dinner.

I keep saying I'm not having a good time, which is not always true, but at the same time has been true since 2012 ┐(´ー｀)┌

I have so many thoughts right now that I don't actually know what to say. Other than I'm so, so tired and upset.

Developing a(n un)healthy hatred for technology because my computer does NOT need to be waking me up at 5:30 AM with random ungodly screeching.
Like wtf do you want from me, my dude? Because whatever it is, it can wait until I'm willingly conscious. No screaming needed.

Amazing how so many shows I watched as a kid told me that adults who live with their parents are lazy parasites. And now it's just... survival.

Lamenting an idyllic past that was allegedly snatched away from is a fascist tactic. Nostalgia is insidious. It's a lie. They can never steal what lives in your heart.

Under stress I have way more self sabotaging impulsive ideas than normal. Which isn't great because my regular level of self sabotage tapdances on the line between embarrassing and concerning like the Looney Tunes frog.

I'm so tired, and for what? The evil ADHD Creatures in my skull, slamming their wrenches against the pipes, just because they like the hollow clanging? Horrific, tragic, and unfortunately entirely expected.
