What's Bothering You?

I saw a cat in the road that had been hit by a car. Details in the spoiler

It was in the middle of the road and I didn't wanna hit it again so I got out and stopped traffic to pick this dead cat up. Holding his body against my body was messed up. I brought him to the sidewalk and this couple pulled over & offered to take him to the animal shelter so he can be scanned for microchips. It was an uber that hit the cat and then the guy got out, stole the cats collar and took off? Not sure what his thought process was. Rest in peace little meow meow, at least you passed instantly and didn't suffer.
 
Got another eczema breakout, this time on my leg 😭 I have never had this much trouble with my skin in my life lol
 
i got sunburned from and outdoor event at my school on friday. it looks terrible, i’ve learned my lesson about not wearing sunblock.
 
I regret my loneliness taking over me and joining a dating discord server. I’ve been DM’d about it twice in the past two days. People being upfront in their romantic interest right away online makes me very uncomfortable. If I were to meet someone online I’d need to get to know them first in only a platonic way.

People showing interest irl right away hasn’t bothered me except for the few times people were creepy about it. I think it’s because I don’t have to worry as much about them lying about their identity. The problem is I’ve had it happen fairly often over the past few years and I was too nervous or oblivious to show interest back.

The whole situation makes me realize I would do terrible on real dating apps. People would text me with the immediate intent of romantic interest and I would be too uncomfortable to give them a chance. Then if I actually went on a date with them I’d be too nervous to show my real personality and hold a natural conversation.

I think I’ll leave the server and just try to meet someone organically.
 
I am feeling better now but because of my asthma, I can't be around my hairy dog when I feel sick. It just irritates my symptoms more. (Poor Sofia.)

On a good day, I'm not normally affected by dog hair (though I'm allergic to cat hair, I think). But today is not that day. 😞
 
I haven’t been shaving my “mustache” since I think it helps me pass. However it’s very subtle and I think the little amount of facial hair makes me look like I’m 15. I’m actually 25.

Also, I kind of want to shave my arms but I’ve been putting it off because again, I think it helps me pass. I wonder if I can still pass with shaved arms. Otherwise, I’m afraid I’ll look like I’m 12 and I’d rather look 15. At least that’s older than 12. Why am I having this issue??
 
1. Job hunting. The timeline for when I want to hopefully have a job by is coming up. My apartment contract is ending in August and I want to move anyways. If I could at least know where my next job will be ahead of time, I can move to someplace that'd be convenient for taking the train. But, for a number of reasons, things have not progressed as far as I'd like them to. I did get interviews for the two jobs I applied to but after applying for both I realized that I wouldn't actually want to join the companies so they'll just be for interview practice.

For online interviews since I work from home I can easily do them and then make up the time by working later, but if it's in-person I'll most likely need to use time off and I don't have a lot left so I need to be careful with it. I don't want to quit my job before finding one since I'm on a visa, that'd start a countdown for when I'd need to have the next job by which would add stress.

I still think it'll turn out okay, and I am finding different things that will help me, but I'm worried about getting stuck in a bad company again and need to make a careful decision.

2. Will keep things vague but there's someone who says they're going through some difficulties and went from messaging me everyday to only once every week and a half. Me not knowing the details of the situation too adds to my worries, and besides being concerned for them it also makes some of my plans uncertain.
 
I used to like to drive. Lately it is just making me nervous. On the way to work this morning so many people would try to go through the intersection knowing they can’t get access before the light changes. Now these people are blocking the intersection so those that now have a green light can’t go anywhere. There was almost two accidents because of it. So many people in such a hurry to go nowhere.
 
Overbid the for-sale price on our first house offer by $38,000. Still lost to one of the other 17 bids. Housing market is so screwed up right now. 😠 This is gonna be a very long journey…
Made a second offer on a different house.

- $45,000 over asking price
- Waived home inspection
- Offered to take possession of unwanted furniture
- Offered to pay $2,000 of the seller's closing cost

Still lost to an all cash offer. How do first time homebuyers stand a chance?!?! Will be living in a pile of :poop: at this rate.
 
I hate saying this but I don’t like it when my second sibling comes over. It would be nice if we could have one gathering without snarky comments being made.
 
Dumb, but I don’t like how Fanatics is now the official manufacturer of NHL apparel for the next ten years. Their shirts are low quality and the graphics fade. I’m glad my shirts are the Adidas brand. I take care of the graphics on my shirts, so I’d rather not deal with the Fanatics branded merchandise.
 
can i get some advice from someone? or just some love?

have someone i considered a good friend. we planned on going out of country to attend a convention together. (we live on border states so its not risky.) planned out a lot of things and i was getting super excited. i found out today by an anonymous source that my friend has been known to scam a lot. in the art community, many people have shunned them away and they have a kickstarter they scammed a LOT of money from (and i know its them because their full legal name is on it) and it was only a few years ago, not like 10-15 years. so, recent scamming. im not worried about being scammed/losing money to her bc im paying for everything on my own, but i'm afraid of my own reputation being tainted by association.

how do you even handle something like this? i can't see my friend the same way anymore.
 
There was a bee in my pants and it straight up stung my thigh and ass. Why bee, why would you do that
 
i find it easy to get on with people and i think im generally well liked but i find it so hard to make deeper connections like other people do and idk if i even want to but sometimes i feel so lonely and i feel guilty for only wanting to hang out with my family :( im sad
 
I can’t sell my full oarfish to save my LIFE…not really bothering me, per se, but I do wish I could sell it!
