What's Bothering You?

[-Blue-]

i graduated high school yesterday but i feel so sad about it for some reason lol

Congratulations!

It makes sense that you would have all sorts of emotions, both positive and negative (for lack of a better word lol) as you spent all of your life going through school. It's a really weird feeling.

Honestly, people want to say that guns are about freedom, but I don't feel free at all. This place that I go to often got shot up only a couple of months ago, I feel afraid and sad every time I go there. There's always this thought in the back of my mind about how this random person can just bust out a gun at any given time. Someone's solution to me once was oh you should carry a gun to protect yourself is ridiculous to me because I have no interest in doing that and I'd never be able to bring myself to pull the trigger anyway.

yeah its awful. i remember as a kid i went to get a glass of water in the middle of the night, and my dad freaked out bc he thought i was an intruder and had his handgun ready. thank goodness he called out to me instead of just shooting me dead.

what's the point in y'all having a president if each state can just decide to do whatever the hell they want? that's like if the uk let each county decide its own laws. you might as well just be 50 different countries at this point.

yeah there's the federal govt (aka exec/legislative/judicial branches) which the president is the head of, and then each state has its own local govt with a governor. it's kinda wild lol. it basically is like having 50 different countries.

Guns are just a really cheap way out in these situations to be honest. If someone wants to fight me, fight me in hand-to-hand combat. I promise you you won't beat me with my 15 years of martial arts experience. I'd put anyone on the ground in minutes or less.

I'm even more enraged that this happened in my own state.

I am going back to work tomorrow, and I really don’t want to. I mean, I am pretty lucky with my job, but still there are things I am really scared of. I hope everything will be good on my first day back.

im kind of frustrated with blender. i watched a video on how to snap to an object to the nearest vertices together but it’s not working for me.

There’s no way I’m going to be able to catch up on this class. The week I spent off while my aunt was dying has made me too far behind. At best I’ll get a B- on this class. This isn’t the first time I’ve gotten a lower GPA. My senior classes were all pass/fail since they during the early stages of the pandemic, so my GPA dipped. Grades aren’t everything I suppose. I’ll definitely spend the Summer memorizing the material from this semester though.

why don’t people say what they mean

gun control has been proven to work by numerous other countries. we had one school shooting here in the UK and decided that was one too many; we haven't had another in the almost 30 years since.

Likewise here in NZ. We had one mass shooting and changed the gun laws within months. While it's too soon to determine if changing the law has made a difference, it's certainly a lot better than doing nothing.

At this point trying to do something, whether it's 100% effective or not, is better than doing nothing. And the whole thing around the police doing nothing for 45 minutes is just absurd. When our mass shooting happened, the murderer was apprehended within 30-40 minutes, and our police don't even have that much experience in mass shootings. Sorry just needed to rant about this lol.

I've had a truly frustrating day at work and I'm just so annoyed

 

[TurnipBell20]

I am at a quiet happy point in my life, but work is bothering me a bit. I still don’t know everything, and constantly having to ask others for help makes me nervous. Also, the uncertainty of what’s going to happen next drives me crazy sometimes.

 

[ZeldaCrossing64]

Weekends are too short. I hate Mondays. My whole Saturday was practically wasted, so I had even less time to do what I wanted/need to do.
I'm so cold and I just wanna go back to sleep. Or stay home and play video games. I hate school and I don't wanna go back.

I finally tried calling the company for my apartment about the issue with my neighbor being unreasonably loud every second they're in the apartment and they gave me the number for who would take care of this kind of issue. Problem is, in classic Japanese fashion, that number's voice mail is just "It's outside of business hours. Call back when it's business hours" with 0 indication of when that is. Guess I'll just have to keep calling back until I figure out what day/hours it's awake while I am pushed to my edge...

Kind of sucks that on days when I do have off of work (which are so few) that there are so many different chores that need to be done. I don't even get to enjoy my time off.

Those kinds of days are the worst. Sorry you had to go through that the other day. Hopefully today or tomorrow goes a lot better. And if you're off of work on one of those days, even better. Use that time to relax and enjoy yourself, if you can!

There’s no way I’m going to be able to catch up on this class. The week I spent off while my aunt was dying has made me too far behind. At best I’ll get a B- on this class.

A passing grade is better than a failing one. Even if it is not the grade that you were hoping for, at least that course will be behind you now. I had a class like that. Wasn't too proud of it, but I didn't have to worry about repeating it or anything.

Meh, I usually don't mind Mondays but this one been a drag

 

[moonbyu]

my 3ds circle pad feels weird, like it’s about to fall off. it feels lopsided too
the bottom of it kinda lifts up too. I’m not sure if it’s actually broken or if I’m not used to how it works since i haven’t used a 3ds in a while

Sounds like it's broke or the rubber cover is falling off. I had friends had that happen to theirs so, oof.

 

[ZeldaCrossing64]

I have a problem with my 3DS, which is bad enough. I'm trying to type about it to post a thread here on TBT, but I don't even know how to explain the situation. It feels like I'm typing an essay for school. I'm re-reading my text a ton and it gets less coherent every time. Ugh.

 

[VanitasFan26]

Ugh I spent like 30 minutes doing that mission in Watch Dogs Legion where it was this side mission where you have to explore a tomb. I mean seriously I feel like I was playing a different game that had nothing to do with the main story.
