It's 32°C. The sky is blue and the concrete is hot. Let's go for a walk.

Beep boop! I look for accidental haiku posts. Sometimes I mess up.
The way we memorialize the ones we have lost in the digital age is so sweet. Like, “I make a tribute to my friend who died in every Minecraft server I play in” on the surface sounds weird, cringy even, but not only is it an apt tribute to the relationship they had with their friend, this is literally a textbook definition of grief ritual.
Doing things digitally just seems weird to us because there isn't hundreds of years of tradition behind it like more traditional grief rituals, so we are sort of paving a new path and outlet for grief in pretty much entirely uncharted territory, which is honestly really cool?
Very recently I lost a close, long term online friend who I never got the chance to meet up with in person and for the first couple of weeks I didn't know what to do about all of the feelings of grief I had because its a very modern and new problem that there just isn't a guidebook for yet. It feels weird to honor him physically when I exclusively knew him digitally, and even my therapist has said this is a scenario that she hasn't really encountered before, and is helping me find healthy digital grief rituals like continuing to send him funny memes I come across, and going through my old chat logs with him and pinning messages from him that make me smile.
I even reached out to a furry artist and commissioned a short comic based on one of our early conversations and rps from like 10+ years ago that I really liked. At first the idea of "commemorative furry art" in my head sounded like the cringiest thing in the world, but after talking about it more with friends and my therapist, its really not all that different than more traditional established grief rituals and if it represents the relationship we had and makes me feel closer to them, why not? We are the ones writing the rule book for digital grief rituals.
Reminded me of this comic.
My cats have this meow that means "please come with me to fix this" after which they'll lead me to the problem in question, usually a empty (or 'empty') food bowl or a closed door they want open. They look at the 'problem', they look back at me, clear message.
What fascinates me is how this illustrates what they percieve as being in the realm of my 'power.' I control the food, I control the door, sure, but my cats love to sit on the balcony in the sun, and it has happened plenty of times that on a rainy day they come get me, go to the balcony and show me... the rain. "Please fix this" they say. "Please get rid of the wet"
"Silly kitty," I say, "I can't control the rain." I then walk into the shower and turn on the rain.
Being nice to someone you don't like is not manipulation btw it's being civil
Mmm no, this is like seeking validation. Ofc it's best to be nice but if I don't like you or we both dislike eachother, then there's no reason for us to communicate or be around eachother. It's not about being immature, I would much rather not put myself in such a situation.
Have you ever had a job
No. I know this is probably just a casual commiseration but I think it's a real and important question to ask and answer. If doing the stuff you're expected to do everyday is super hard, then something is probably wrong.
Anyone who relates to this too hard, I'd recommend looking up spoon theory and starting to make a record of how you feel and your experiences that you can bring up with some kind of health professional. Chances are if doing laundry feels like climbing everest, it's because you're disabled in some way. Whether that disability is some invisible chronic illness or depression or ADHD or burnout, *something* is wrong.
Almost all disabilities have some form of treatment or accommodation that can make your life easier. If you can get a diagnosis, you might also be eligible for official accommodations and benefits. Social security sucks ass and is almost impossible to access but like, it's not the only thing out there set up to help disabled folks and usually local organizations are gonna be better anyway.
Plenty of people reblogging this probably already know they're disabled in some way but if even 1 person sees this and can learn something important about themselves then it's worth saying.
TLDR: people who aren't disabled don't find acts of daily living extremely hard. Maybe look into that and see if you can get help making your life less hard.
Sincerely, a multiply disabled person.
This is super important okay. Like, I used to try to ask my conservative family/church/etc. for help, and they’d just be all, “suck it up; life is hard for everyone; quit being such a baby”... and then I went to, like, actual experts, and they were basically like, “um, wow, you’re clearly super depressed and suicidal; you should actually be proud of yourself for still being alive!” And I’m still trying to unlearn the former and accept the latter, even after all this time. And I’m so mad that I’ve wasted so much time just trying to “push through it” instead of getting help I clearly need(ed), and that’s still a thing I struggle with.
Please, please seek real help if you need it. Like, I understand that there are shitty doctors and shitty therapists and whatnot, but it’s so worth expending what effort you can to find good ones who can help. If you have mentally ill friends -- which, if you’re reading this in the first place, you almost certainly do -- they might be able to point you in the right direction.

I have a friend with insane ADD and we have this same conversation sometimes
She can't actually even define laziness (which is weird) but she thought she was just lazy, life was that hard for everyone, and that everyone else was just being more responsible at managing it. I told her laziness feels good once and she blue screened.
Like if you can't define laziness, you've probably been convinced it's something that it's not. Probably something nebulous and hard to describe. Like, idk, an unknown disorder.
In case you're one such person, laziness feels great. It's not stressful. It's like the opposite of stressful. If you're being stressed and lazy at the same time you've managed to do it wrong somehow. The only struggle in being lazy is wanting the tv remote and being to darn comfortable to want to move. (But you get it anyways, because it's not an inability to get the remote. You were just cozy.)
Think of it like a cat sitting near a warm heater or a hamster so relaxed it "melts". If there were danger, or if the animal were hungry, it would get up. It probably doesn't want to get up because it's comfortable but it will. If the hamster is actually genuinely hungry but it can't get up and it's just laying there stressed and starving, you would take your animal to the vet because it has a problem.
