Because tell the truth and shame the devil: I'm doing my best to keep busy (giving my room a clean while watching Rhys Darby standups) but my OCD is prodding at me and telling me to do things I don't want to do which I know will hurt me and cause me more anxiety. I just need a break.
One of the original artworks I'll be making available tomorrow (sat 8/16) is a personal favorite - I'll be sad to see it go, but happy for it to go to a good home. "What Makes Ed Happy" 11x14", ink on paper dorywhynot.com/shop #ofmd #ofmdfanart
The OFMD fandom have made me feel so loved tonight. I don't deserve you guys, I really don't.

CW: Depression/suicidal thoughts. I don't really have anywhere else to put this. I don't feel well. I've tried so hard to feel better - walk to the park, read a little, making plans for the future. But I'm just not well. I don't feel good. I feel like giving up on life because what's the point?
Random thoughts on the 1997 film Titanic, ending-focused (and no, I'm not bringing that fucking door into it): Rose dropping a valuable necklace that was worth £lots into the ocean is a narrative choice, sure but you know what? She could have used it to help others.
Negative update: Today broke me. With the exception of seeing my friends on Tuesday, this has been such a shit week. I should be grateful for employment but right now I feel helpless and hopeless and like I want to pack up and run away.

CW: Pet death. Charlie, my dog-nephew, has passed away. He was a part of the family from his puppyhood, brought by my brother to help my then pregnant-SIL feel more secure when he was away. He grew up alongside my two eldest niblings who adored him and his first year was my Mum's last.
To borrow a quote from Sufjan Stevens: 'We're all gonna die.'
Back from London. Tired but it was lovely and I got through it. Now though, I wouldn't mind some fic recs where characters (co-captains and/or ineffables) find what they truly need in each other after mistakenly seeking happiness elsewhere. I need the reminder.
So. Going into London. Kind of nervous, kind of shaken. I don't know how it's going to be.
The last week has been hard. I've been struggling with depression and tomorrow am supposed to be having an afternoon out in London with my friends. And I just don't want to go. I know it would be good for me and it's not about me but I just don't know if I can face it, or fake it even.
If I manage to get through the summer without murdering any customers (especially defensive parents) it'll be a miracle. 'My kid didn't actually touch that.' WTF THEN IS YOUR KID DOING BY LEANING RIGHT OVER THE BARRIER WITH THEIR OUTSTRETCHED LESS THAN AN *INCH* FROM THE ARTIFACTS???
Not me pretending to fire off a Very Important Text That Requires My Undivided Attention right now because my Uber driver, God bless him, will not stop chatting to me and I am tired and depressed and not feeling very communicative.
I'm grateful to @david-jenkins.bsky.social because OFMD is just...such a safe place to be. I'm contented. It's made a huge difference to me and my fandom life. And the show as a whole is also a reminder that it's not too late to turn your life around even if years of it have been spent unhappily.
if Taika invented having eyes, Rhys invented having hair

The timeline loves me and wants me to be happy
I really don't like myself right now. I'm feeling a horrible case of jealousy and feel like a terrible person. The last few days have been hard because my future feels so hopeless and I feel I'm seeing what I'll become if I don't make changes. I don't have much optimism for my life at all.
On break: Coworker, out of nowhere: 'Ellie, how much would you pay for someone to buzz off your hair?' Me: *immediately taken back to school where my very thick hair had me constantly bullied and graced with names such as Frizz-Head* 'Can't tell if you're making fun of me or...'

UK pirates and ineffables, I got stuff to shift and a retweet would be appreciated! Thankyou! www.vinted.co.uk/member/80213...

One community, thousands of brands, and a whole lot of second-hand style. Ready to get started? Here’s how it works.

Had the best time today meeting up with fellow pirates, watching a perfect movie, and listening to this beautiful, silly, wonderful man speak. And what an incredible surprise to see Rachel and Julian there too! What a night 💖
Realised I hadn't shared my photos from last night's #Wilderpeople10 event and well, that will not do. Have some Taika, Julian and Rachel!
asking is always difficult, but i'm struggling to afford groceries/med refills and my account has gotten very low 😓 if anyone is able to contribute, every little bit would be a huge help to this queer trans person rn 🫂🫶 ko-fi.com/patcheschance
