Without invoices to run, furnace repair or oil delivery to schedule, the associated phone calls, or the freedom to simply pull out a sketchpad and draw, but with a small dog barking constantly and likelihood of getting canned, my brain wanders to things like “why are you so fucking stupid?” “You’re not a REAL minority/REALLY disabled” or “you’re too ugly to be a girl/you’re too fucking stupid to be trans” and similar thoughts which, now that I’m no longer 1000% bought in, are real uncomfortable.

@amagire @Leucrotta omg who let Brian use the fax machine? Brian, you are not on that sub committee

@Leucrotta ugh that sounds so hard. The barking doesn't help! Hope you feel better though.

@SummerJackel I really *really* wish he wouldn't bring her in, she's obviously not happy and maybe making her happy isn't possible. Every day she's in, she does this, and she pees the carpet at least once.

@Leucrotta That sounds really unpleasant for you and the dog. I'm sorry that her handler apparently isn't taking her out, distracting and entertaining her as needed!

@SummerJackel thanks; I know I keep bringing this up, but disliking a dog, not wanting a dog around, is so new for me and antithetical to my entire worldview.
