Hi! Posting from piefed since they have a scheduled posting system. I may not respond to everyone, but rest assured I do read all your comments :)
I hope you had/have a good week!
The US that I live in is going to shit no one is doing anything no one WANTS to do anything. It won’t collapse it will just get worse and worse until there are no rights left… At this point I’m trying to come to terms with what it’s like to live here now
Poorly.
This week felt so long, I’m glad it’s the weekend and have don’t have plans.
My sleep has been kinda fucked work was a slog this week.
Finally got a deep sleep of 10 hours last night plus an hour long nap yesterday. Feeling so much better, I think my sleep schedule is going back to normal.
I finally got to see a band I’ve wanted to see play for over 10 years and it was so much fun, it was incredible
I’ve been voice training by myself for a couple days now, I’m a cis man but I like the way my voice sounds when I raise the pitch a bit. I’m a bit worried that my new voice doesn’t really sound all that different from my old one and I’m just imagining things. I’ve been taking voice recordings to like compare them but it still sounds like I’m faking the new one. I also feel kind of lonely, cause I’m not sure if I know anybody I can safely practice with, like I know have friends who’d probably be supportive but I’m not entirely sure how to bring it up and my family’s a total no-go. So like yeah, that’s it pretty much
I was just thinking I was feeling like shit and then stumbled upon this post. Curious…
I’m doing okay! I’m definitely feeling emotionally burnt out this evening, but I couldn’t tell you exactly why. 🙃 However, I ate some ice cream, and I’m going to read fanfiction.
Have a good week too!
What ice cream did you have?
Terrible.
Haven’t been anywhere in ages, sort of interested in a medieval fair, but feeling sick and I don’t want go alone. But if I don’t go, I’ll also get depressed for not going.
But I can’t fucking do anything.
That feeling is such a vicious cycle! Don’t wanna go out cause I feel lousy, and I feel lousy cause I never go out. Add other factors to the mix and it’s a perfect storm. I’ve found that the first step out the door is the hardest but every step after that I’m grateful for. If you get in your head too much while you’re out and about, just pause and look at the tops of the trees swaying in the wind. That always helps me stay present and reminds me to enjoy the little things.
I’m ok bit flat but ok. Gonna watch some Andor that’ll help
How you liking the show? I’m in the minority and was kinda meh on season 1 but still thinking about watching 2
I started s1 this week I can’t get into it. Decided to start outlander today cos it’s an easy bodice ripper. I’m liking outlander if that helps!
It does! I’ll check it out. My sister loved the books so watching the show will give us something to chat about
Awesome
I just got back from spending the night out with my best friend who is also another friend’s girlfriend and I’m super conflicted. It’s a real mess of a situation and I’ll likely be thinking about it obsessively for a while. The rest of my life is also a big mess, but I’m trying not to think about that.
Tricky situation indeed. It’s worth exploring your feelings before you find yourself going mad over it anyway. At least that’s what happened to me, your mileage may vary. What helped for me was journaling and then eventually therapy which has been extremely helpful
Good tips, but I have a therapist and we’ve been going out to bars and stuff multiple times a week for two years. I’ve really had too much time to think about it. The going crazy part is that they’re looking like they’re gonna break up soon and I’m worried I’ll be blamed despite not crossing any lines. I’m a serial over-thinker so I’m no good at stopping.
Dang, seems like you two are definitely gonna get together at some point. Sometimes I find that while being honest can make a friendship/relationship go through a rough patch, it still ends up being such a relief to vocalize what I’ve been bottling up. Maybe your friend’ll be pissed at you but if you’re hanging out with his girlfriend that often, he’s probably stuffing down his feelings too. Facing the facts can be tough and even if it ends the friendship, you might find you only want to surround yourself with people capable of coming to terms with reality.

I have a one and a half year old who’s cute as a button. He’s always fun to play toys with and read books to. Fortunately I’m getting more adjusted to his occasional bouts where he screams for fun. Navigating the load of chores with my wife has been more challenging than expected but we’re working through it
