Me on the verge of a mental breakdown: ok time to crochet something

#this is why my kids have drawers full of crocheted dolls they never play with lmao #and my desk is always covered in yarn #it’s a more satisfying form of escapism than most of the other ones I use though

utopians

people aren't even exaggerating indeed is literally like that. walmart attendant $13 an hour, target attendant $13 an hour, AI dick sucker $40 an hour, home depot attendant $13 an hour, guy who designs bullets that can only kill children $160k a year plus benefits, gas station manager $18 an hour

btw I’ve found these stretches from the WAK blog very helpful when knitting a lot:

Plus make sure to take breaks regularly - and stop if anything starts to hurt!

especially with gift knitting I know it can be tempting to push through it for a deadline, but it’s really not worth causing long term injury. (And anyone knit-worthy should be understanding of that, imho.) Stay well :)

With the Namaste movement, because I climb as well, I like to rotate my hands away from my body, so the steepled fingers are pointing outwards, rotate as far as I can until I feel a gentle stretch down the insides of my forearms. Give it a try!

#especially hard when one of your kids has food allergies #so all the versions of foods they can eat are more expensive than the regular stuff

I think I really need to go back on my anti depressants, but I don’t have anti depressant money 😔

fixed it

After everything my in laws have put us through, the manipulation, the guilt tripping, the excuses…we finally did what we had to to unburden ourselves of them and extricate them from our lives. Like we’re about to never see or speak to these people again, my husband has stopped referring to them as his parents. We’ve risked and sacrificed so much for them over the last year, while they treat us like garbage and just ask for more and more and more. They, of course, made the last day dealing with them as hard on us as possible—costing us more money, and putting a bigger emotional burden on us. And at the end of it, my FIL actually asked if he could hit my pen…the audacity actually surprised me so much I just laughed. And then of course said no. I can’t even articulate why that request pissed me off as much as it did, but also still makes me laugh when I think about it. Just…I can’t imagine being the person who’s so toxic, all the family they have left has either gotten as far away from them as they can, or cut them off, and then still asking something like that as if you’re buds, while your kid is in middle of cutting you off 😅

First world problems, but I sent my pink joy con in to Nintendo to have the drift fixed, and apparently they don’t actually fix them they just send you new ones, and they don’t have any pink ones in stock to replace it with so they asked if I wanted red, blue, or gray instead 😭 so I guess I’m just gonna ask them to return my joy con and deal with the drift, because I’m not losing my pretty pastel pink joy con 😅 aesthetic > function lmao

A strange genie appears and has an offer for you. You’ll be cured of all, you’ll have a stable job you’re happy with, and you’ll basically just live the best life you can imagine. However, there’s a catch—you’ll have to relive one specific grade level from middle or high school (the genie is American).

Which would you pick?

6th grade

7th grade

8th grade

9th/freshman year

10th/sophomore year

11th/junior year

12th/senior year
