@applechime I mostly get recommendations for guinea pig blogs, bird blogs, or fan blogs. And then occasionally, something completely unrelated, like, has never even touched my blogs or the blogs of people i follow level of unrelated. I think sometimes tumblr's ad software gets drunk and just throws crap around at random.
And now i can't sign up to instagram because ??? I fill out the registration, "sorry something went wrong" uhh *tries again* "sorry that username is taken" so it went through?? *tries to sign in* "that username doesn't exist" ?????
I am very tired of my dad. Every single time we wish I could get off work early, his first solution is "I'll call in a bomb threat." Why. Why are you like this. Why are you such an idiot. Why are you such a FUCKING IDIOT?
having a hard time believing that i am, in fact, not hated by everyone that has lived in this universe, ever. Nyaaaaaaaghh hhhh.
My sister is spraying... something in the house. It smells very strongly. My dad has decided to scream and swear at everyone as a result. joy.
People are now saying fucking Link is a blank slate character because you can change his name, and trans headcanons are stupid because "he's your gender, male, female, agender, whatever".

I thought we were done with insurance shit, but now a new possibility has come up and AUGH I hate trying to figure this shit out
My CPAP machine started to malfunction last night, and even though it is currently IMPOSSIBLE TO USE, this still counts as non-use during the trial period. Meaning that the machine malfunctioning may cost me the insurance to pay for the machine itself. What's more, the phone troubleshooter kept trying to explain ramp time and how to change it even after I said repeatedly that nothing had changed between the time when it was working right and the time when it began to malfunction. I've been using this regularly for a month, I know what 4 feels like and I know what 6 feels like. This isn't the machine starting at 6, this is the machine not registering that I have the mask on At All and blowing air into my nose so hard I can't breathe. I understand she probably has a script, but I want it on record The Machine Isn't Working. This isn't a user issue! This was never an issue before the middle of the night last night! This is something totally new and something which is not supposed to be happening!! Anyway, I'm supposed to get a call from an actual technician in a day or two. In the mean time, I won't get a good night's sleep AND this is going to count against me in the eyes of the insurance. If I didn't think it would be completely pointless, I would call the insurance company and tell them what's happening.
A bunch of people, including journalists, are insulting me on Twitter over a "The media and their search for sensationalism have largely contributed to Trump's election, Brexit, Marine Le Pen's high rank in the polls, and general rise of nationalism all over the world" comment. Of course, of all of the thread, they only quote the tweet where I say "Media basically created Trump" and take it as if I said they literally grabbed him on the street, put him in a suit and made him run for President. If you can't understand that media have the capacity to alter people's opinions on stuff, don't get a job in media, please.
I just got a follow up call about my CPAP machine. I think this was to check if the last lady actually handled me correctly, because I got asked the same questions albeit fewer times. What part of "I have been using this machine for a month, the air pressure is MUCH higher than the highest it's ever been before, I cannot breathe with the mask on" is so unbelievable?! And now I have a fucking headache and I'm so tired and this isn't going to get fixed for at least two days.
Looked like it was going to be a late night but i would be able to go home to finish most of my work and just go right to sleep. Now i'm suddenly sick in a worrying way in the context of my diabetes so i called an ambulance just in case i was about to faint or something Sooo now i'm in the emergency waiting room and the morning shift gets to scramble to catch up on what i was supposed to do and i get to either have to tap out of work today and look like dead weight, or drag myself in and try not to be dead weight
@Everett If one of my coworkers told me they weren't able to finish their work/make it to work because they wound up in emergency my reaction would be "Holy crap are you going to be ok?" and not thinking of them as dead weight. (Hell, I've been in that situation more than once, and my frustration was always with the way no one else could come in to help, rather than with the coworker in question.)
@budgie ah true, thanke for insight (They think its just a stomach bug or something, which is why i'm like "self that's not...an emergency?" but not being able to keep food down is alarming for a diabetic so i activated the batsignal to summon EMS)
THE SAGA CONTINUES. I put on my CPAP mask last night to see if I could stand wearing it for a while (the lady on the phone reccomended it because any hours I "miss" I have to "make up") and??? It was working fine??? I didn't do anything I hadn't done that morning when it all started or that afternoon when I tried fiddling with the machine, so I have no idea.
