re: Vaccine (~)
And here comes the shot fatigue. Time to go to bed!
Just kidding, I will work through it 'cause I have to make up for the parts of work I skipped to get healthy.
re: Vaccine (+)
I still gotta wait four months for jab #2, because ha ha, Canadian vaccination rollout - but at least I have a deadline for when I will start to feel like I can leave the house without guilt.
re: Vaccine (+)
Thank you, autism. You have gifted me so many things, like the ability to hear when a light bulb is on, a vague sense that I am constantly wasting everybody's time, a love of food that feels great in my mouth and tastes like cardboard and now: this vague pain in my arm.
@kat Does it rhyme with "karate"
re: Vaccine (+)
My sister had to call me up and tell me, "listen, you have a formal diagnosis of autism and that is on the list of conditions that let you get it before general rollout. You are not jumping the line."
It helped.
Periodic reminder that suffering is not a contest. It is normal and okay to be objectively better off than other people and still in misery and deserve comfort and support for it.
...I mean, being in misery isn't okay, it sucks, but it's not a fault on your part. There are always people who are in more dire straits than you. Your suffering is still valid.
May your life get better soon if it's not great now.

P.S. yes I still call it "my computer" even though I technically own a dozen, including the one the size of a candy bar I'm typing this on
re: Blaseball realization
To be clear, if you love Blaseball, go wild. This is, if anything, a vent about the larger issues with the content-comes-to-you model, where even if I don't really want to read about the thing, guess what I'm gonna wind up doing anyways.
re: Blaseball realization
Criticism is vitally important, and I will still read critics. But right now I want to read them to be alerted to stuff I've never heard of that is brilliant, instead of having my own opinions fed back to me.
re: Blaseball realization
I want to go "I enjoyed/did not enjoy that television program, comic book, motion picture or video game" and have that be the end of it. I don't wanna browse the wiki, I'm not gonna read the fanfiction, and I'm definitely not gonna get into pointless internet slapfights over it.
Skunk lady! Writer sometimes. Numbers person other times.
