mental health 

I am reducing my social media habits dramatically because I have identified they’ve been hurting me, and I have discovered that I have basically forgotten how or where to just kinda chill out with people online at all. that is kind of a shocking amount of damage. Depression doesn’t help but it’s obviously a feedback loop

speaking from experience as a wildlife rehabilitation volunteer:

DO NOT HABITUATE WILD ANIMALS TO HUMAN CONTACT. it is BAD FOR THE ANIMALS. it can cause huge problems for humans, and it can KILL THE ANIMALS.

~~WILD ANIMALS ARE NOT PETS!!~~

I am having a weird and intense wave of nostalgia for double-clicking the upper left corner menu icon for a program to close it

mental health, negative 

...I've been using "Seeking out sources of stress" as a form of compulsive self-harm for *years*.

I need to stop. I may need help doing it.

Someday, I expect to commute to the office via smartphone-hailed autonomous helicopter

I’m sorry I have an intense urge to apologize about everything

mental health 

I have been enduring intense interpersonal stress and anxiety for the last three days. I’m not holding up well and I don’t want to keep pressuring the people around me, who are also kind of involved. I’m worried about others and I can’t really do much and I can’t just stop. I am not in good shape and I really don’t know what to do.

And thus marks the first time I've had to use cell phone disassembly prying tools to break into a laptop so I could add a hard drive to a secondary drive bay the laptop was designed with. They didn't include the cable connecting the drive to the motherboard, so I had to email customer service for a disk tray and cable, then install it myself.

Got it done though!

It's frustrating how stress and exhaustion just eats an entire day sometimes. I wish it would do that less often.

It’s all just excuses to hide from conflict and confrontational or prickly people anyway.

woohoo, intense social anxiety and self-hatred about an event I’m not actually going to. I am clearly the picture of mental health.

Why are cell phone manufacturers so enthusiastic about “Woo every single part of this thing is a screen! Oh my god look at it! A screeeeeeeen, we made a fucking screeeeeen!!!!” like some sort of strange tropical bird mating call?

I mean, why are they right? I kinda wish my entire phone was a screen, too, I just think next year’s version will be the one that works.

I have my slow cooker full of turkey, onions, and garlic soup base. We’ll see how this works out - I usually use powdered onion soup for seasoning instead; this is a variation on that plan.

PSA: If your breakfast burrito recipe includes 'scramble the eggs', it is wrong.

Here is how you breakfast burrito:

- Get some good chorizo.
- Fry it in pan. Don't you dare drain it.
- Remove chorizo from pan. Leave grease there. Don't touch it.
- Fry shredded potatoes in the delicious chorizo grease.
- Pour lightly beaten eggs over it all, and add the chorizo back in, along with some green chile.
- Mix it until it coalesces into a slightly crumbly foodmass.
- Serve with cheese in tortillas.
