Okay so once more, I ask of assistance. Not like… required but I’m not gonna lie, this could improve my life to such a significant degree that I’m asking anyways.
So. I have a lot of disabilities that make it hard to get around, but what I’m asking for is help with getting a bike… not really, I need a trike… I know that’s to embarrassing to say as an adult but with my instability I don’t have the ability to keep upright on a bike. I need a trike.
I live in a VERY bike friendly town. It’s small (tho I’m still limited to very small parts of the town because I can only walk for so long and in this heat that’s a very short amount of time) and we actually have dedicated bike lanes here. We even have started construction on multiple bike lanes with center dividers to keep cars out of them, that’s how much this town is friendly to bikes.
And frankly the price isn’t that high either. Like 280$ or so, and I can order one on Amazon (no I cannot buy a trike in this town) and they have them with the giant baskets in the back for groceries and I can get a personal shopping basket for the front of the cart and that would bet. Awesome.
So. Ultimately, I would like a better quality of life and being restricted to a very small part of town because of mobility is kind of sad… I will accept any help you guys wanna give and drop into my PayPal in the bio.
#I can’t go to grocery stores across town or even regularly go to my pharmacy#there are a lot of places I can’t go#because I know it’ll take too long to walk there and it might make me sick to try#I want to go shopping with dad#I want to go to the farmers market#I want to go to random town events without planning weeks in advance#only for me to know that if I try I’ll be super sick when I get there#I can’t leave my house because I can only go so far#driving isn’t an option with my nerve tremors either#I went to the store entirely for some meds an a few snacks and it gave me so much anxiety cause I hadn’t planned it#I’ve actually started scheduling my doctors appointments less because I won’t be able to go as often#I’ve waited till the last day to get my meds and still had to ask dad to get them for me cause it was too much for me#it’s tough and i desperately want a live where I can just leave my house#that’s why I’m asking I’m so tired of being stuck in one room all my life

im shocked at how quickly im adjusting to working 5-3 three times a week.
like the first few shifts i felt awful at the end of them, but now im just like. yeah that was a long 10hr shift. but im normal end-of-work tired. and im sleeping pretty normal hours on my nights off.
idk maybe ive secretly been well-suited to a late shift the whole time? i did get my best work in college done during those hours.
#messages from the ouija board#i adjusted when i take my adderall and i go get a huge iced coffee at dunks on my way in and it feels like a normal work day#and like ive said before i really really like having daytime to spend as i see fit. some of which is sleeping.#but being able to run errands without threading the needle of when places are open vs when im free. not worrying about whether doctors appts#are going to interfere with my work schedule#(my many doctors appts for multiple chronic conditions chafing against a work schedule that changed weekly & a manager who didnt respect#my availability with regard to that is one of the biggest reasons i stopped being a historical interpreter if u dont know)#(that and dysphoria but like. having my drs appts scheduled over repeatedly was a BIG ONE)#idk its just really nice to have the daytime off. and working three really long shifts is better to me than four or five regular ones.#and i can still substitute during the day if i need/want to#idk idk i dont make much money but my boss and managers already really like me and acknowledge im really good at my job#only a few weeks in so i feel like in a month or two post-surgery id feel comfortable asking for a raise#it also helps that i live 8 minutes from the pizzeria so if i leave at 3am im in bed in my jammies at 3:15

sorry I can’t hang out tomorrow I’m watching a 25 year old movie and mourning the loss of the only good man in Rome who only longed to return home but who was forced into slavery and abuse until his tragic death. yeah it’s gonna be all day
#HE DIDN’T DESERVE IT#HE DIDN’T DESERVE ANY OF IT#I’LL DIE UPSET ABOUT IT I DON’T EVEN CARE#he was so good 😭 so brave 😭 so honorable and strong and wonderful 😭#i simply adore him and if i watch gladiator it’s an all day event#because first i have to mentally prep myself for it#and then i have to watch it#and sometimes i have to pause it to simply appreciate him#and then when it’s over i need the rest of the day and night to recover#then i need the next few days to fully mourn for him#and then a week or so to post all my melodramatic thoughts on this blog#he’s my precious beloved husband and i simply cannot live without him#to live without him is such agony#this is hyperbole BUT STILL#i dream of him constantly#i think of what life would be if he were here#and the closest i can get to him is watching gladiator and pretending i’m there to share his sorrows and joys#IF ONLY#IF ONLY I COULD BE SO BLESSED#love of my life stars in my sky blood in my veins THAT’S WHAT HE IS#to love him would be the greatest joy of all#i’m so mushy over him today i’m sooooo in love with him I CAN’T STAND IT#gladiator#maximus#maximus decimus meridius#gladiator 2000#russell crowe#text posts#funny

I should be writting my thesis, but I am once again plagued with Dragon Age brainrot.
VARRIC/HAWKE OH MY GOD. The sheer potential for angst, the longing the pining and the ever present question of Bianca. Blue Hawke would be a mess. He would totally stay in the fade - he already lost his family, Carver's doing good with Wardens, his friends have their own life, and Varric? Varric's fine. He always is. He always has Bianca after all.
And Varric's complicated and repressed feelings would just hit him straight in the gut the moment the first shock would fade. He's in love with Hawke, has been for so long.
And now Hawke is dead. And now there is nothing to be done about this stupid stupid feeling he cradled so close to his chest he didn't even realise it was there. Varric would not be doing fine. Oh he would repress everything again and try to be his old self, but he'd rather avoid Cole, thank you very much.
And without Hawke there would be no-one to call him out on his bullshit. Not that they were ever any good about talking about feelings.
But Varric would stay up in his room, staring at the wall, haunted by the memories of Hawke's smiling face, of all the late evening where they would stay up, snuggled close somewhere in Hanged Man, drunk and too tired to move, laughing at some stupid hardly funny jokes. He would realise with a stark clarity that there was nothing of Hawke in his possesion but those sweet, painful memories. There was no memento, no trinket, nothing. You bet he would find his pack (if he left anything in Skyhold or in the camp) and pull out some tattered red shirt and hold on to that for the rest of his life.
welp, now i'm gonna cry.
#no but i do believe in flemeth's 'prophercy' about taking a leap into the abyss#hawke lives#varric just hold on garrett will come back to you#just so you can be stupid and not talk about your feelings AGAIN 💀#they will get it resolved or the others will take pity on them and just lock them in the closet or something#either way i'm living on few songs that are extremely varric/hawke coded and very not writting my thesis due 2 weeks from now#anyway#i love them your honor#varric tethras#dragon age 2#hawke#garrett hawke#blue-purple hawke#varric/hawke#blue hawke#but purple hawke fits also#he would be making these terrible jokes how he just loves Varric and how Varric can't live without him#and they would both laugh and be like 'ah yeah good one buddy' and internally screaming 💀#they're a fucking mess your honor

I occasionally wish to reach out to old friends/acquaintances I haven't spoken to since high school/some other even earlier time in my life, but I have SOOO little social energy even for required tasks (like making dr phone calls or etc), I never have any leftover for extra ones, and it would be very odd to message someone I haven't spoken to in like 5 years out of the blue but then take 4 entire months to respond back lol.. My natural curiosity with nostalgia/collecting details of the past/etc. (literally if I were born a little earlier I would definitely do scrapbooking or something lol) is very strong, but, alas, not strong enough to beat out the Social Issues Demons apparently
#facebook always does that 'here's a post from this day 8 years ago' thing. and I see old comments interacting#with people and it's so like.. OOOOO~~ where are they now?? what's going on? how much have they changed as people?#how much are they the same? this is fascinating. i should contact them!!' but then it's like... take that to it's logical conclusion though#you would contact them and then IF they even responded it would take you 80 years to respond and then they would#think there was something wrong or that you were trying to be insulting or something. To contact anyone I need to include an 85 page#disclaimer of all of my social issues & mental illness things. 'If i take 3 weeks to reply I promise it has nothing to do with u' etc lol#THIS is why more people need to be into phone calls/voice calls/some form of audio real time communication/etc.#I think one of the main things that's hard about messaging through text for me is it's so unscheduled and open ended#(plus it takes forever if you're talking about anything in detail and gets very long very quickly)#because like you can send a message and then just get a reply whenever. and then you're expected to reply back whenever#so it's like you never know when the response will come or when a new obligation to reply can come up? so it's like this sudden thing with#no outline?? if that makes sense. whereas a phone call is very like 'hello let's schedule a call from 10am - 2pm on thursday'. And you know#EXACTLY when the interaction will start and EXACTLY when it will end and you can plan around it in your schedule easily.#I have the reverse thing of a lot of people (how people don't pick up phone calls/hate calls/only text)#I would literally talk on the phone with a stranger. I would have a discord voice chat with someone I barely know.#if someone I hardly even remember from elementary school asked to have a voice call with me out of nowhere I would do it.#but if a stranger MESSAGED me?? or someone I barely know sent me a TEXT or something?? I will never reply probably#It's just too vague and weird. and you can't read voice tone over text. and the interaction could last forever with no clear end#point and etc. etc. But a call is like. set. established. clear boundaries. you can read the flow of conversation better. rapport. etc. etc#I get that I guess people feel more anonymous or distanced over text?? but you can have fake phone numbers on the computer. or do like disc#rd calls. or zoom without a camera or etc. etc. Also the distance that's present in text is BAD distance because it just means that tone is#not conveyed properly and you will never truly get a sense of the person's conversational vibe or mannerisms or how well you really click.#ANYWAY ghgjh...... I'm so so so interested in concepts of like.. How did that one kid I used to talk to in elementary school#but then they moved away in 5th grade - how did they end up? what are they doing now?? etc. etc. Like despite the severe social anhedonia#and general lack of connection with others I'm just really fascinated in like.. idk. the human development of it all and like#the concept of how we're actually a million different people through the course of our lives ever evolving in different iterations and etc.#PLUS again. i love nostalgia. sometimes old peple you know might remember a shared memory or can tell you about something you forgot#or etc. like it's SUCH A COOL THING in CONCEPT but I am too socially inept generally speaking lol. which people I still talk to today are#familiar with my 'phone call once every few months' communication style. but strangers would just be like... wtf. And I don't blame them#Sure I literally cannot change the physical health + brain issues i have - but also I know enough to not put others through that lol

yesterday i saw an apartment in like what's considered the best city to live in here esp for young ppl (so it's got extremely expensive rent. as you can guess) and it was decent. the landlord was very like. pushy? and a bit aggressive to the point that we now got the text from the real estate agent we went through where he convinced him to be flexible with our terms and prices and such. but bc of his vibe i said no. but this apartment was lovely and in an extremely insanely good location (and he agreed to lower rent to a price you might find in cheaper neighborhoods or cities). however. part of me also got scared bc idk if i can live in this city...... i simply do not have the tel avivi temperament i don't even smoke weed i'm not even vegan.. idk if i could handle it.......
#the issue is. in the city i do want to live in. there's barely any apartments for rent. mostly for purchase#bc it's more for families and ppl who are planning to settle down there for at least a few years#they're also just built bigger bc of it so prices go up with that. so this is all very unfortunate for me#however tlv is very much filled with apartments to rent. most of them awful but also most ppl don't care as long as they get to live in tlv.#there's also the city my friends live in which has a lot of young ppl too lol. due to its proximity to tlv with significantly cheaper rent#but it's very popular bc of that. and many buildings in it are so old that they have a bunch of issues (as i see in my friends' apartments)#like very weak water stream lots of power outages in winter and leakage on top floors etc#no elevators in most of them too so i have to settle for first floor which . i really don't wanna#it has cheap neighborhoods too but without a license and a car they're kinda impossible for me to live in 😬#this is why I've been looking for months but anything half decent gets taken super fast 🥲#the apartment i mentioned last week i think? got signed in the day or two where we passed the contract to a lawyer to see if it's okay#being careful doesn't pay off either...... but unfortunately since it is my first time leaving home i am Scared and ig so are my parents#anyway this is my apartment hunting ramble/rant for the day 😔 ignore me i'm just . suffering#at this point i can picture where exactly on the map each neighborhood is -_- even in cities i don't know that well

one of my fave things about teaching is that I’m NOT a counselor and I don’t have to get into the weeds with a student but also I’m part of their life every day and i see when they’re struggling and I can ask how them how they’re doing and make sure that they know I see them on a steady, daily basis and it will be healing for both of us
#I teach a student who hit a wall a few weeks ago and just refused to go to school and was just all around struggling with his mental health#and this is not a kid who wants to talk to me about it or would even know how and I also know he has people where he can#But I’ve just tried to make sure that There’s a little extra contact and a few more questions and just a little bit more#and obviously I am not the cause of his doing better but overall I know that it helps#while still being such a subtle and ordinary human exchange that doesn’t force either of us to go to extreme lengths#like man I really LOVE that space and living in it#and just being a (hopefully) stable place for the kids to be seen in a small but consistent way#teaching tag#something about holding them in the safety of manners while also modeling what that looks like for them#it’s so gratifying to me and it helps me too!#like yes we should greet each other! We should ask how we’re doing! we should exchange pleasantries#and it’s important to me that that happens without getting personal sometimes or overly involved#pleasantries don’t have to be cold things and you can be seen and validated by a momentary kind glance as much as by someone digging#into your soul#it can be light and life-giving at the same time#it can be fun!#I’m sorry I’m rambling and over-saying this but it’s Saturday#!!!!!!

kind of leaning into the iconoclast-is-the-playstyle-for-liberal-sentiments argument for leda but not in a "shes a niave bleeding heart" way but in the more accurate neoliberal "her kindness is actually pretty disengenous and self-serving when examined with any real scrutiny" way lol
#oc: leda#tay plays rogue trader#i need to workshop this more bc i think she IS kind but she has commodified it and bastardized it to the extreme as a means of survival#her background in the militarum was under the patronage of a VERY high ranking general#who had her dabbling in political machinations moreso than any frontline combat (why shes a sniper lol. too valuable of an asset to risk)#and the one thing she learnt above all is how no amount of dogma can beat out the human desire for comfort#and understanding and connection. if you want to live — endear yourself to the person holding your life in their hands#and if YOU are the authority then endear yourself to others so that they will give you THEIR lives more readily#whatever solas dragonage said. if they love you you will never need to order them to die for you because theyll do it without asking#i cant remember the acrual quote but yknow. real fen'harel shit.#leda is somewhat inspired by solas btw. lol. lmao even#solas if he was actually as bad as all his bad faith misinterpretations made him out to be 😍#is leda/the emperor just solas/mythal if solas was 85% more delusional than he is in veilguard??#well i didnt think so until reflecting on this question a few weeks ago but :) maybe so! :)

having a non-existant perception of how big of a part I play in my friends' lives keeps catching me off guard because I often think of myself as the Cabbage Man in comparison to other friends of theirs, and yet, every time I think I'll just be cheering them on in battle from the sidelines, I get handed a matching sword and told to strike the other heel
#i do love them all to infinity and eternity and beyond you know but also like#I've struggled with self-worth a lot to begin with for like... ever#and so have practiced VERY HARD to be ��fine” with being by myself first and so on#and so have un/intentionally distanced myself a lot from others as a self-preservation tactic ykno#and not expect “too much” from others because “they have lives and friends of their own” right#but also in the past few weeks I've been handed so many to-the-bone insanely honorable and flattering pieces of information#that (this sounds weird but idk how else to describe it) has highlighted my “value” to others around me and I just ????#as a self-proclaimed mortal lil cabbage man being added to the main story quest party without any hesitation is such an insane table turner#like only yesterday a girl I've met like... thrice through a mutual friend said she's followed my instagram stories about Oathbound enough-#-to be able to MENTION IT TO ME IN PERSON LIKE#PEOPLE ACTUALLY FOLLOW MY RANDOM YAPPING ?? I FULLY THOUGHT I WAS SPEAKING INTO THE VOID ???#tove rambles#i love my friends and I am so thankful and grateful to have them around because they slowly but surely mold me into my best self#i can only hope I can pay yhem back for that somehow <<33#was about to make a joke about how I feel like I'm the Polities to my friends' Odysseus but I realize that might be the entire point so um

#I mean I know that physical disability is the more or less inevitable result of living long enough#and of course obligatory mention that there are plenty of people who are much more disabled from a much younger age#but god. it feels so unfair.#I’m still crossing my fingers that this is a temporary thing that will pass with time and rest#but it’s been a MONTH!!!! and I still can’t walk without pain#you trip down three (3) stairs#just a random thing that could happen on any day#and then maybe that’s the last day you can run without it hurting.#again. I’m hoping it will pass and I will be back to ‘normal’ in another few weeks.#but god. god. I miss being able to just Leave My House without it being a whole big thing.#mine

The Thoughts(c) are getting to me so I should probably go to bed but I have to say hmm maybe I should go to therapy
#teach says#not that im feeling at my lowest#im not im okay even if a bit frustrated#but i havent been to therapy in a while and the therapist ive had until now only focuses on issues related to childhood and family#they helped me so much and im grateful for that but ive kinda outgrown my problems at this point#which is good!#but i feel like i should look for someone that can help me put things in perspective in my adult and neurodivergent years#i clearly dont really know how to Feel stuff so i keep getting to a point every few months where all the negative emotions come together#and create the Final Breakdown (to the tune of the final countdown)#like now theres the dentist#the fact that i couldnt go on vacation#my friends live far#and then other stuff#and it doesnt matter if its big or small it will always combine like a megazord and come bite me in the ass#and then i become insufferable and i cry for a week straight without solving anything!!!!!!!#like bro i have zero free time i need to stay focused i cant just randomly cry in the office and not even know why!!!!!!!!!!!!#thats unprofessional as hell!!!!!!!!!!!#and i dont even know why im doing that!!!!!!!!!!!!!#so yeah#except having zero free time also means having no time to go to therapy#much to thonk about

#Jesus fucking Christ#why do some people just. not see the mess they’re making and acknowledge that it’s their responsibility to clean up after themselves??#like. you throw your shoes in the entrance exactly where people walk. you let shared loafers stand outside for several hours#you cook the most simple dinner that one time you cook (mind you the other people have equal shares of making food)#and yet you don’t even manage to clean up after neither the cooking NOR taking the food off the table into the fridge so it doesn’t turn bad#you keep on taking the most easy solution that fits you the best without thinking about others. in a space where we all are exhausted#and I’m so done with it for now tbh. how lazy to not care about the bare necessities for others. how rude to admit to it#AND on top of this. you’ll tell stuff about your country that’s *objectively horrifying* and then add on to that that you love your country#it’s just. so many things. are so so so much of what I’d avoid in a person. a few things is fine. no one’s perfect. but damn there’s a limit#SORRY to anyone who’s read this far but I just. had to get it out#this guy is the one I’m working the closest with these two and a half weeks. hes still a kid kind of. I’m not gonna be mean to him#but damn. my patience. is being tested#AHHH I might delete this tbh. I don’t like showing this side of myself. I don’t want to spread this kind of negativity#I’m just so very frustrated. how a human person can come to this place and be here for SO LONG already#and still not have learnt the basics of living and working together#own post#oh. and all the triggering of intrusive thoughts is not helping your case buddy#(which you can’t really know about so it’s kinda fair but also it’s for bad hygiene stuff mostly and that’s. I mean…..)
