Things that are currently annoying you

Motherfucking black powder weekend at the range up the hill
Cannonfire at 7:30 am is entirely fucking unnecessary

 

Wait, what? There are shooting ranges that have cannons? How are they getting ammo for them? Who makes it?? And how is it legal to shoot them?

 

you.... can pour cannonballs? pretty easily actually if you have access to the material?
Historical reenactors would be my first guess
Why would it be less legal than literally any other firearm, especially considering shooting ranges aren't exactly just anywhere? they're designated areas specifically for the sport of shooting stuff with firearms. If any place is equipped to handle that kind of stuff then I would assume shooting ranges ot be that place.

 

That just sounds so excessive, archaic and unnecessary. And I'd never heard of it before so there was a bit of disbelief there.

Huh. :l

 

I mean. That's literally more or less the entire point of historical reenactment.

 

sounds like fun honestly i wanna see someone fire like a bigass fucking revolutionary war cannon

but not like. near my actual place of residence at 7:30 in the morning

 

Historical weapons are typically much less regulated than modern ones, too.

 

I live in pennsyltucky where gun regulation is fucked and history is Important? Black powder weekend is A Single Event they run once a month in the summer, I assume there's papers involved

 

Unable to feel rested due to persisent night terrors and a permanent headache from grinding my teeth all night. It has me... I won't say dreading bedtime, but not loving it as much as I always have.

edit: OH that's why

 

Dual boot on my desktop when I forget to press down to boot into Windows instead of Ubuntu. I should really change the order so it boots into Windows automatically instead.

(ideally I'd have separate comps for this buuuuut money and space are limited, so....)

 

Bad habit of being Helpful
Goodbye, one of two days off. I was looking forward to you but apparently I'm picking up a 6-hour shift instead.

 

Fortunately something being unnecessary is not yet an accepted reason for making it illegal. If it were there would be little to no fun of any kind. I find martial arts of all kinds (including firearms practice and armored swordfighting) to be very therapeutic. I know some folks who've made giant medieval style siege weapons; now that's "excessive, archaic and unnecessary", but also way cool. Being up and about at 7:30 on a Saturday morning however should definitely be illegal.

 

There’s no water in the apartment and I’m just waiting for the land lord to call me back. at least I got the laundry done hours ago

 

People on the machining forum defending S̶h̶e̶r̶r̶i̶f̶ convicted criminal Joe Arpaio.

 

People bragging about how they never get sick, they never go to doctors, they only (grudgingly) got immunizations because college required it

 

My Gmail app is bugging out and saying there’s emails in there I’ve deleted already. The little red number is stressing me out, I might just turn off notifications.

 

For some bizarre reason, picarto untoggled my NSFW settings.

No, I promise, i'm still NSFW as hell, pls to not claim that I'm SFW when I'm really, really not.

ME

MY MOM

MY LIFE

I CAN'T DO ANYTHING RIGHT

I CAN'T DO ANYTHING GOOD ENOUGH

I HATE BEING WHO I AM I HATE NOT BEGING GOOD ENOUGH I HATE THAT I CAN'T FUNCTION AS A NORMAL HUMAN BEING I HATE HAVING MENTAL ILLNESS I HATE EVERYTHING

I just spent twenty minutes on the phone with tech support to fix our internet, mom is technologically challenged and I CANNOT PHYSICALLY HANDLE talking to two people simultaneously so it was VERY HARD and I made mom upset and I got upset and stressed

 

Ditto, and people that I've known for decades still can't remember this or have the courtesy to take turns talking and to refrain from talking over the dialog on TV. When two people talk at once I can't understand either one, and it literally makes my brain hurt. And then of course I'm the bad guy for "not listening" or for getting upset about it even though I've told them about it hundreds of times.

 

Spoiler for suicide mention.
