What's Bothering You?

Every day when I open up the Spotify app on my phone, the home page is always filled with junk and shirty music that I have no interest in listening to. I hate that they’re shoving music recommendations at me. I already pay for premium. Save all of this bull for free users. This is garbage.
 
I feel like I’m growing more distant from everyone I know. I have little interest in seeing family, co-workers or the friends that have long since abandoned me. I’m relying more on chatting with internet users, but even then I’m still suffering from high social anxiety and running into mental roadblocks if activity is low and can’t think of anything else to be more social in. I really don’t have any motivation to step out of my comfort zone, so I’m constantly stuck in a cycle I can’t get myself out of.

I’ve went back to using a dating app, but I know for a fact I’m not going to get good results. I’m simply a failure and going to remain that way.

This is such a mood I’m sorry your going through it right now, socialising is hard your not a failure and I know we don’t k ow each other but you seem pretty cool and funny! If you ever want a mate to chat to feel free to message ♥️

I’m going to be leaving the forums permanently but I know it’s for the best.
I’m sorry to see you go I’m glad it’s for the best and I hope life treats you well 🫂
 
R.I.P. Finn. 😢 🐶I’m going to miss hearing those grumbles and feeling you in my lap. It’s going to be hard to see the toys lying around, and you not playing with them.
He was so feisty and social around the other dogs we passed— even the Shih Tzu owner who wanted us to breed him with hers.
The past few weeks were especially difficult, but he was still as tough and stubborn as ever.
I miss him and hope he is finally at peace.

My best friend missed my birthday again; I knew this was going to happen but it still hurts.. I’m doing my best not to focus on that.

Had a hard time today with ny depression even though there were plenty of things that made me happy.

Depression really sucks.

I'm so done with this SAG strike stuff. It's become a confusing jumbled mess of people screaming @ one another. I don't know who to believe. I just want VAs to get paid.

Spotify is so stupid.

When I opened it up this morning, I see a bunch of recommendations for ‘More Like Nirvana’ and ‘Because You Liked Nirvana’. Um, hello? I haven’t actively listened to Nirvana since mid March. I’m listening to other bands now. Get with the times.

I really hate these dumb algorithms. They’re really clueless. I wish the home page was customizable. Or at least let my library be the first thing I see when I open up the app.
 
well i have a D in math. i had a 63% and i thought maybe the ungraded work would bring my grade up but it did not. i did the calculations myself based on the grading criteria and i thought i would have had at least a 71% which is a C, i still don’t understand the grading just because homework is half the weight of a test and i did well on all those. this is all because i did bad on past tests and got a 63% on final, this was a general requirement but i also have to do another math next semester anyway so that’ll satisfy it.

this is kind of stupid but i’m worried that internships or a future employer might look at my transcript, see one D and choose not to hire. this is also ultra dumb because im minoring in CS 😭
 
I'm out of dry kitten food. 😬

I feel awful. Usually a bag does the entire month until the next subscribe and save comes (due in 5 days). Turned my house upside down trying to find the 400g bag of a high quality dry food I was gifted, but it's evading me.

Luckily there was enough in the auto feeder left to do breakfast. Hoping I can find something suitable in town given Delta's stomach issues. We've a lot of wet food so they won't starve if I need to order online for next day delivery. But I still feel terrible for not noticing the bag had been finished the last time the feeder was refilled.
 
I have a swollen neck lymph node that hurts. It feels like a bruise. It's a little lump right now because it is so swollen. It has always been larger than it should be and was biopsied years ago as a result. I assume it is swollen right now from allergies and being in a flare this week.
 
after a few days of back and forth with tech support, we've deduced that my ssd drive is causing the issue, but idk if they're going to send a replacement or somehow want me to reinstall windows on it (when i can't even get past a black screen with the thing plugged in) because the guy didn't email back before they closed. bank holiday weekend means i might not know the solution/course of action until tuesday rip, but i miss editing and stuff. sucks that when i have a week off work and a lot of inspiration, i won't be able to do any of that.
 
I’m feeling a bit overwhelmed with some stuff I saw.

I’m having a little bit of social anxiety; not sure if it something I did was okay or if it will come across awkward.

I feel like my mood is overall much better today though. I’m just really worried about some stuff (also still hurt about my best friend but doing my best not to focus on that).
