I have nothing against transgender people, I love it that people are who they want to be, but what I hate is
when someone clearly is not transgender and yet acts like he's one just to get attention.. why do people have
to do such things for attention?

Thank you and yes, I hate all those attention seeking trenders... It's like you know there are actual people struggling with their sex/gender and here comes those people mocking the whole thing -_-

It's not always so black and white. Sometimes people can be out in some situations but not others, so they may appear contradictory or fake to people who do not fully understand their situation. Family and religion are factors that often play a role here.
 
I guess it depends, though I've seen it's easier to tell attention-seekers from others, at least online. Also if they who are genuine have family/relatives issues they're pretty open about that to be fair in my experience which also makes it easier to give them support. But yeah everyone has different experiences?

Also in my case it's like certain "tumblrinas" who just do it to mock, not because they necessarily have it hard or stuff and even so it's a bad way to get attention and understanding from others.

Oh yeah, I do fully understand that! Sadly in this case he's very obvious about it not being real, which I find sad, because I would've loved to support him about it. I don't want to out the whole conversation, but how and what he said is just very obvious, that it's not real. :(

Yeah, I agree with you here. Some might be in a grayzone but honestly all attention seekers when it's serious matters bugs me anyways.

I remember when the promise was that below 60 would start to get vaccinated in March. Then it was May. Now it's September...

Starting to feel it's going to be December next...​

I just feel very bad about myself and why I just let the negativity take over my mind. I was being an idiot on my part to tell people what to think about islands in general. I guess because of all the negativity I've been getting recently when people told me how my Island felt too "empty" and how you said I was "not trying hard enough" it came off as negative and I let my anger get the best of me.

Truth be told I've struggled with trying to express how I feel because people always told me to keep being positive but then it just becomes hard for me because I've been hurt too many people who I thought were nice but they turned out to be mean.

I feel very ashamed of my stupid behavior. I don't know what caused me to react that. I stopped using a certain thread since it didn't go well for me and I just can't handle it at the moment. I'm autistic so it's really hard for me. Truth be told I HATE being this way, but its what I have to live with. People always think I'm just a normal human being when I'm not.
 
My work is holding a protest right now outside the courthouse cause my coworker was killed on the job back in 2018. Our leaders knew the load was uneven and unsafe, and they told him to go pick it up anyways in a small lift truck. Well the load rolled and crushed him. Obviously the leaders should be held responsible but they are just getting a fine and sweeping my coworker under the rug. I feel bad I'm not there to help support. So many people get critically injured at my work, it leaves me feel uneasy everytime I go to work.
 
For once I’m talking about something that isn’t related to my unstable mental state.

My foot hurts. I’ve had a big blister on my foot for a month and nothing seems to help. Just walking is excruciating. I can’t blame my shoes either since I bought new ones last week.
 
i feel fat in everything i wear :/
Hey, I'm sorry you feel this way. I started having body image issues shortly before I entered high school and have only just started to accept my body for what it is many years later. The language you use reminds me of thoughts I used to have--notice that you said "feel" instead of "am."

Honestly, the best advice I can give you is to take baby steps today to get where you think you want to go. Do your best not to fixate on one specific end goal, (e.g. "I want my body to look like X's")--I know from personal experience how tempting it may be--but don't beat yourself up for having that thought either. I was just telling my S/O the other day how at peace I am with the state of my body as it is. Sure, it's not "perfect" by any means, but it is what it is and literally cannot be anything other than it is at any given moment.

The stuff I said above was my take on this psychiatrist's take on why we feel drawn towards improving certain aspects of our life (from what you've said, for you, this is your weight). If you have ~12 minutes, I recommend watching this video of his.


My inbox is open if you want to chat more about this topic, and I hope this helps you. 💜

At least where I studied post-secondary, there are provincial and federal student loans that charge interest at different rates. I find it very scummy that as a default, a loan payment is split evenly between the two loans, rather than letting the person decide how much of the payment they want to go towards each loan, since one loan charges higher interest than the other. :/
 
I have a feeling that my boyfriend will ask me to move in with him in a few months (he's a home builder and will finish building his house in the next month and a half or so). He alluded to it when I was talking to him on the phone last night. Don't get me wrong I love the idea of it as we only get a chance to see eachother on the weekends right now, but one major stumbling block will be my work.

I currently work in the town I live in and he lives in a different town that about an hour's drive away if I take the major highway. Said highway is notorious for bad accidents and I prefer to not take it if I can help it. The drive would be well over an hour if I take the back roads instead. Even if I do "toughen up" and take the highway I don't like the idea of having to drive an hour to work every single day. That's 2 hours of commuting total everyday, nevermind the cost of gas.

Before anyone suggests compromising and moving somewhere between the two towns, my boyfriend is in a multi-year contract to build a sub-division in his town so he pretty much needs to stay in said town.

I do like my job a fair bit and the company is one of the nicest I know of but I'm leaning towards looking for a new job. I don't really want to leave but I don't know if I can take the mental strain from driving two hours everyday on one of the most dangerous highways in the country. Getting a job is such a difficult and stressful process though, especially when there really aren't a lot of job opportunities in my boyfriend's town. :/
 
Woah, I just slept for 16 hours. The world is still here? I still have to live my life? Well, okay then. Wish today would just end though. :lemon:
