It's pretty easy to spiral when I keep walking to a whirlpool tornado of knives everyday. I need to get to the end of today.

It's frustrating that those saying 'it'll be OK' or some variation of 'this is meant to happen so something better can happen' are trying to comfort, because what am I supposed to do? Tell them they're wrong? Seems mean. Unfortunately none of them are living my reality. I am, and trust me it's bad.

Someone yesterday tried to get me to pick a 'best' between #Marvel and #DC I just think it depends. Do you want stories of Gods among mortals learning to tread carefully and serve others with their privilege? Or do you want ordinary people showing their humanity & stepping up to protect others?

People keep saying 'you have to make time for yourself' I'm working to get us out of the red every month My professional day begins at 7 (though it necessitates arriving a little earlier to prep) and often ends between 5-7. Sometimes later I make sure the family is fed, then pass out So:

I think I'm pretty tired of working a minimum of 53 hours a week (not counting preparation time, and since it is attached to multiple jobs, no over time) across working responsibilities, and barely keeping the family's head above water. And then getting judged by people for money-saving tactics!?!?

I feel like when glass is smashed in movies, they never show the people picking glass out of their bodies for hours afterwards. Like I dropped a jar yesterday, my friends and wife all worked together to clean the kitchen, I took a shower, and I woke up this morning with a piece of glass in my foot!

#D&D is not just creative writing It's: - Collaboration - Improvisation - Empathy - Fun in failure - Strategy - Math, Science & other academics - Safety - Identity - Adaptable to kids & adults Between my home games & student games, I see people grow, access emotion, & explore themselves

Hey #McDonalds I don't get what's triple about this burger. Every time I order triple cheeseburger no cheese, I keep getting two patties. By the time I get home it's too late to do anything about. This like the 5th time. I don't eat mcds that often. Now I'm just sad :(

Annoyingly, I used to have a first edition of the first book of @dereklandy.bsky.social 's Skulduggery Pleasant series. Then one of my students borrowed it and never returned it. Now I have an incomplete collection, and cannot find the initial edition anywhere, and the new ones don't match my set :(

Here's the thing. I love Wendy's. But I can only afford to have it once in a while to treat myself. So when that treat includes cheese on every burger despite me asking for none, and is missing a patty from the one triple burger I ordered, it just makes me sad.

The magic of 'hating yourself' is that it's sort of satisfying that, finally, the person you hate actually knows that you hate them, & can feel every ounce of your hatred Can't feel that when you hate anyone else It's an oddly gratifying feeling In definitely unrelated news, it's been a bad month
