Things that are currently annoying you

I can't stop clenching my jaw, and when I try, I just get a cramp in my tongue for some reason. What the hell.

 

Someone put my Nightwish shirt through the dryer which is bad because I don't want the picture to get damaged more than it has to

 

my cat got a cold and has been sneeze-choking for most of the day. she was actually crying :(( i rubbed her belly and checked for any obstructions and after a little while she seemed much better. im keeping her as warm as i can now, we're having a weird cold snap atm.
also i broke one of our bowls when doing the washing up, and didn't achieve anything productive with my day :( I am a sad sponge.

 

The URL bar for Chrome ALWAYS mixes up the letters when I type unless I do like one letter every five seconds. I know I'm not just typing wrong because no other place where I put in text does this.

If I end up searching for "kni" one more time, I'm going to blow a gasket.

 

My goddamn bloody fucking dickbag psychiatrist, who just called me for a top-up on his horrible asshole behaviour.

 

@jacktrash this confused me because I always assumed that the "property" referred to in the phrase meant, like, real estate. But I think maybe I just guessed that because I've only heard it repeated by acquaintances who squat.

And having checked that "property" doesn't specifically mean land, I now have even less idea what the statement is supposed to mean.

 

Hm. The people I've heard it from have been...well, I'd categorise most of them as "pissed off young anarchists with more ideology than compassion".

 

Given that I live in Seattle, which is home to an astounding quantity of private school educated, rich-parent kid anarchists, I have a remarkable lack of tolerance for that kind of idiocy.

 

According to Wikipedia that's what Karl Marx thought, too.

 

As someone who is friends with an anarchist and is a sort of socialist (not really, I'm leery of going radical anything) I see these anarchic posts and just.... cringe.
like. That's not how it works.
whyyyyyyyyyy

 

Yeah, some education about what Anarchism is about would be welcome for that type. Or Communism / Marxism / Socialism, for that matter.

 

that it took me about four fucking years to realize that i had neglected to mention that my rp blog was a sideblog and then fucking correct it
and that that is probs part of why very few people have ever rped with me on it
the second part is that it's not for an especially mainstream fandom (you know the guy i have that thread for? norm the genie? that's the guy i rp. yeah...)
and the third part is, i dunno... i haven't really set out what my boundaries are (there aren't many, really, just don't trust me with tagging triggers and stuff) and stuff in my rules (which currently are a non-existent page, yeah), so... maybe that would make people anxious 'cause they don't know what stuff i'm up for and not up for
i dunno
basically, i'm hella adhd and i suck at making my rp blog look appealing to people

(but i'm not gonna go for fancy tagging or a fancy theme or whatever. just the basics. which people might not think is cool but... fuck it! it's what works!)

 

And then there are those who oppose the more far left political theories only for the reasons of "oh sjws are doing it"

Their favorite seems to be "communism was already tried and millions died" even when socialism is the one being brought up.

 

^Oh yeah. That's the worst thing ever. Makes absolutely no sense!

 

Is there anything we as Internet strangers can do to help?

 

re: socialism/communism/etc

I asked my dad what he thought of Bernie Sanders because sometimes we agree about things politically but often we don't, but I like to know his opinions. "He's a damn socialist" Oh okay. Is that all? "Yes, socialism is awful and I hate this guy"

I paraphrased, but still.
