My birthday is on Festivus and i know it’s a bs pop culture “holiday” but gotdamn all i want from my family is a formal airing of grievances. im just too angry to even sleep right now I’m so done with their bs.

Found out what my dad went to Congress to talk about the other day. He won’t be mentioned in any articles, though. Otherwise, in his words, “our house will be egged for the next ten years.” 🙃

10 mins back into Alola and i remember why i hate Hau. he makes me want to be the douche rival. this friendly dynamic cannot be sustained, one of us must be the asshole. i feel like i must fill this void.

Now, i am become Gary.

If any of you are the praying type, I would like to ask for prayers. I’m about to go through a lot of strife with my family and I need grace. If you could pray for me to be granted strength, conviction, and humility, and that my family be accepting and forgiving, I would be very grateful. Thank you.

My dad works at the Pentagon and I went in to meet a guy about a contract writing job.
I got a visitor pass and my photo taken, and went through two metal detectors, two guard dogs, a bag and coat x-ray, and a body scan.
somehow my dumb ass forgot I had pepperspray and a Swiss army knife in the bottom of my bag.
AND THEY ONLY ASKED ME ABOUT MY UMBRELLA.

I got in to one of the most secure places in the country with banned items.

Hey guys my closest cousin just found a cyst the size of a baseball on her ovaries and she’s going in for surgery next Monday. They don’t know if it’s cancerous yet, and she’s only in her twenties, but if there are complications she might have to have a full hysterectomy.  If you have a moment to spare a prayer for her and my family I’d really appreciate it, thank you.

I’m not normally a paranoid person (unless it’s govt haha), but something about this semester feels a lot less safe then the last year and half I’ve been here. I’ve never been catcalled, harassed, etc on campus before, but in these first two weeks I have been at least three times. And I’ve noticed a lot of… staring. I don’t know if it’s all the construction and sales faires bringing in weird people or what, but I’ve also even gotten some weird vibes from people I’m pretty sure are students. Idk I just don’t feel very safe right now and I’ve never been so glad I don’t live on campus.

Well June was a shit month. Summer has been awful so far, and I’m going to need some supernatural aid to get through July.

• Person: You must be relieved to be out of school! You get to relax all summer!
• Me: haha yeah it's not like now that I don't have all-consuming homework and deadlines I have all this brain space to think about the absolute crushing hopelessness of my aspirations for the future. Not at all! I'm not filling the stress void with resurging depression! Nope! hahahaa!

I had such a great weekend, didn’t have to worry about my parents at all because they went two states away, then they came home tonight. Within 15 minutes my mom is asking for my plans for the week, and my dad is talking about beating my dog for chewing door handles and then grilling me on my college plans. It’s 10:30 at night. You just drove 9 hours. And this is how you want to come home?
