u ever just
rly crave rewarding social interaction, but everyone sucks
Or you don’t know how to socialize “normally” in the midst of depression
or you’re convinced that anyone who tolerates you doesn’t deserve being forced interacting with you
OR nobody ever gives any indication you’ve spoken or had a sentient thought, and genuinely cannot tell that you just gave up on speaking unless spoken to - and only to *briefly* answer a thing.

I’m not usually into MtG much, but the D&D set just dropped, and I helped my bud John unbox a large batch today. So much fun seeing familiar things and characters represented.
And the humble Flumph is actually a Rare card; being what, a CR 1/8 in D&D and Lawful Good, it totally makes sense they’d have Defender and no points in attack 😂
John thoughtfully sleeved it, and gifted the squishy baby to me!
- c-19, depression (of others), anti-vax
From the only TRD group I could find.
Old biddies turning to hysterics claiming the vaccine MUST be making depression worse, bc it wasn’t SPECIFICALLY tested on depressed ppl???
It… doesn’t even target specifically the brain? Why jump to that conclusion? It’s literally just you? I’m fine, other depressed ppl are fine, stop fear mongering jfc
Better on typed input, but changed nuance between distinguishing “one’s grandmother” 「おばあさん」(Obaasan) from “my grandmother” 「祖母」(Sobo).
So from switching Japanese to English and back, I got “Anata no sobo” - Lit. “Your (my) grandmother”; and from my understanding, it would be p rude to call someone else’s grandma soba? I haven’t been able to tell if obaasan is more polite and soba is more casual within family, or some other hierarchy structure.
So I guess... have at least a novice level knowledge of words/culture before using a translator or dictionary? 😳
「JR 上野公園ぐち」- 柳美里
“Tokyo Ueno Station” by Yu Miri
I just bought this book on a recommendation, I forget where... but it’s about a poor man who works on the construction of the 60’s (?) Japanese Olympics, and while he’s away from home, an earthquake and resulting tsunami wipes out his family and hometown. So he ends up homeless in Ueno Park.
As long as possible, and if insurance or govt says nobody needs it anymore after COVID-19, I’ll have to take the insurance bus about an hour upstate every week :(
But i only improved with her; she did actual therapy. E just chats about pop culture or listens to me rant, and offers silence in return.
Busy 24 hours.
Today’s news: In combo pain from fallin down the whole flight of stairs last week on my side/elbows/tailbone, + arm sore from not being able to move it regularly during SLEEP
B is down sick with his final shot, took a day off & I have to do ALL THE CLEANING before the appraiser for the refinancing visits tomorrow (i am not dusting anything above eye level u fkin kidding me)
Last night I found a newly formed Pedophile ring on one of my social spaces, and there’s no in program way to report a whole group. Backdoored it to the help desk and had to mark > harassment > dangerous activity >OTHER (there’s nothing in rules/TOS about pedophiles Or soliciting minors for sex) and had to attach a screenshot of blatant SAYING THEYRE PEDOS!
And swapping my useless therapist for my old one who abandoned me to move upstate to be with her BF who refused to move central VT. Gonna do Telehealth 1/2
