What's Bothering You?

I brought my bread machine to work with me today because I wanted to do something so I figured rolls are time consuming and taste and smell so good. My machine is really old and squeaks. At one point it fell off the counter and the top broke off. I still use it to make dough sometimes, but I’m not sure if I can cook the bread in there. I knew it was squeaky but I didn’t realize just how loud it is and I feel like I’m being annoying rn with it.
 
Living in southern Louisiana has been such garbage because of hurricane Ida. Fortunately I got gas friday because literally nowhere has gas now. I lost power sunday and it’s still not back on. There’s a 6pm curfew and almost none of the businesses have power so they’re all closed. It’s so scary to drive around here because of course none of the traffic lights have power. No one here knows how to yield. There’s nowhere to buy food and all I’ve had to eat since friday are saltine crackers. My work has been running on a generator so no a/c. Also to top it off my car started blowing hot air recently. I sweat at work then I get in my car to sweat just to go home and sweat some more. It’s so hot and humid here it’s killing me. I’m starving and exhausted.

I really want to stay away from this topic as much as possible, but I just can't take it anymore. I was almost finished eating my breakfast this morning and of course, my dad goes on a rant about vaccines and vaccine passports. Like, why do you always have to be negative about the topic? Haven't you ever stopped to think why this is happening in the first place? Don't you see that people are still catching it? So we can try to keep others safe and limit the spread of the virus? Come on, where is the critical thinking here? You work in healthcare for goodness sake!

I do not want to catch it and get sick. There are some people that are long haulers, some lost their senses, and many unfortunately lost their lives. I do NOT want any of that to happen to me. If the virus catches us out, then your ignorance is what costed us. Of course, vaccines are not 100% effective just like many other things such as seatbelts, medicine, and other things. On top of that, they also come with some risks. It's not exclusive to one thing and I don't know why you're flipping out about it. I'm pretty sure you need to get a yellow fever vaccine if travel to certain places such as Africa and South America, so what's the point with your argument? The delusional thinking of some people really drives me up the wall. And no, this isn't directed at anyone on here or I wouldn't have made this post in the first place. Ugh, I want to get off of this ride and never hear about this again.

Dude, I so feel you on this. My dad is one of those nuts that thinks that the vaccine that is going to put some tracking implant in your or decide to off you whenever the government feels like it. 🙄😒 what upsets me about it is, our son has Spina Bifida and was in the top 5 highest risk groups....like, could get the vaccine before the 80+ crowd, if he were old enough. And my dad STILL won't get it for my son...his only grandchild. He thinks it's all propaganda and it's just infuriating.
 
Just very frustrated. I want to get a cool feather soon, but I can't afford it. I could trade a blue or green Jellyfish or possibly pink, but that's the prize for my drawing zipper event, and I don't want to make anyone made by taking out the prize.
People who have lots of tbt/lots of expensive collectibles that they don't want, are lucky because they probably don't have to deal with this

Koopa, you are always very kind and generous with your collectibles and TBT, and I know you like to run contests. Maybe you could take a break from contests for a while so that you can save up TBT and sell spare collectibles to reach your Cool Feather goal! 😊

Thanks! Though I don't have that many expensive collectibles I'm not using, I think the most expensive is the popsicle tessa gave me which I don't want to sell. I kind of feel bad for not throwing these contests because people definitely deserve to have something I don't need. Though I'll see if I can get at least one more Jellyfish that I can trade for a cool feather/purple bat potion
 
My new therapist is giving conflicting info about my mental health. My previous therapist said I have some sort of schizophrenia-like condition, while this one thinks I just have intense trauma… She’s probably right, but it would be nice to a term for what I have. It’d make understanding myself much easier.
 
My neighbours are such a nuisance. Nobody wants to hear your music 🙃 I don’t know how it isn’t bothering them???? They’re playing it in their house and I can hear it in my room.
 
More mistakes at work today 😔 (although smaller ones)

I hate how every time something goes wrong, it just stresses me out and then more things go wrong. I feel like I am losing control of my life. I used to be so much more put together.

I don't want to prolong the enrage meter, but I work in vaccines and even the people who manufacture it are influenced by conspiracy theorist propaganda about it being a political mind control trick created by Bill Gates or whatever. Like dude, you just cooked the soup yourself and you think a demon cursed it?

My conservative parents and in laws thankfully did everything they could to get the vaccine, and are scheduling for the booster, but they treat it too much like an invincibility shield and sometimes forego masks or have gone on cruises. This wouldn't be as big a problem for them to live life if they stay away from people, but my kids are too young to be vaccinated, and my baby girl in particular has a lung condition that makes respiratory stuff extra scary.

What bugs me today is that the pediatrician detected a heart murmur among other things plaguing her. Like dang, life, why you gotta keep piling on the anxiety?

And yeah, what the heck Texas? Backwards legislation yet again. Living here is so embarrassing.

Also, @Licorice I may be 7+ hours from you, but if you need shelter, I totally have a guest room at the front of the house with a bathroom and excellent wifi / ac. You would never have to be within 6 feet of me and my fam, lol.
 
Yooo why does sugar have to be so addictive? I'd love to quit sugar but it's in freaking everything, and I just don't think I have the willpower? I also love baking so much and the idea of sugar-free baking does not sound as fun or tasty

Also +1 for being upset about the Texas abortion ban. I don't live there but I am very upset about it. TF is wrong with conservatives.

Second COVID vaccine has had me feeling as if I have the flu for the past three days. I'm ready for this to go away now.

I'm sorry to hear that, which one did you get? We got the Moderna and with the first dose, I felt like I had the flu for a couple days but was fine on the second. My husband was the opposite. He was fine on the first dose and felt like he had the flu on the second. Hope you feel better soon!
 
Okay this is it, I'm getting an Android phone with next paycheck cause iOS are really starting to suck, releasing useless updates and removed the one thing people actually use, or I did cause it made me sure I set an alarm... and they remove the "up next" widgets so now I have to quadruple check the clock app I actually set it. Plus the other widgets you can download are full of ads unless you want to pay like 10 bucks extra :(

Also starting to think I'm allergic to radishes or something cause my pharynx is itchy as hell. No other stuff just that and I remember my throat doing that when I tried walnut to see if I was allergic to that.
