A few weeks ago, maybe even months now, I went to the mall with my brother and in a weird little store that just sells the weirdest collection of inventory (it’s your one stop shop for all of the seasons of Fraser on DVD, a plushie of your favorite k-pop idol, Naruto themed Yahtzee, and a CD of Leeanne Womack’s I Hope You Dance!) we found this book, and I… wanted it. I wanted it. I wanted it very badly. I wanted it so badly that after we left the store, I started crying.
I had the money, but my mental health was also at an all time low and I felt guilty. Yes, L is one of my top ten favorite characters. Yes, I would love to read more about him and also Naomi and know at least when I read the last page, they’ll be okay for now. But who was I to want something so beautiful? What possibly made me think that I deserved it, with its beautiful black but silver embossed cover and it’s book ribbon and just high quality, beautiful book, even though I would unquestionably love it?
I went back to the store a few days later with my mom and wanted to show it to her, secretly hoping she would give me permission to buy it, but it was gone. I tried to be mature and put on a brave face and say that was okay because surely, whoever it belonged to would love it. You don’t buy a book like this without already loving the Death Note universe.
Now, my brother was a little late ordering my birthday (late August) gifts and also accidentally sent one to the last address Redbubble had used, which was one of his friends in another state and ever since has been waiting for the friend to send it to us. He has told me, however, that it’s a bag and there is also going to be something in the bag. They haven’t yet so Chet gave up on his plan of that and just told me to check my bookshelf, and sure enough, between I Am A Cat and You Feel It Just Below Your Ribs…

sorry to overshare and i know its probably tmi but damn i need to rant
so i just had the worst fucking gynecology visit like im in legit disbelief over this doctor. he was SO rude and absolutely tactless, if i had met this man in any other circumstance i wouldve jumped his ass fr. my dad has bullied me over literally everything my entire life so im not. upset or offended by his remarks (tho a normal person would) but i am baffled
but the kicker is. turns out i have PCOS and THIS MAN DIDNT EVEN MENTION IT DURING THE VISIT. like AT ALL. he just kept telling me im fine i just need to lose weight, the entire visit was him going. you need to lose weight, you need to lose weight, why do u think ur not losing weight, ur eating too much.
i had to read i have pcos from the fucking report file, he didnt tell me i have it in person, he didn't explain what it is just that "u have some small problems but theyll go away if u lose weight" LIKE WHAT?????
i didnt feel safe at all so i didnt even mention i have a gf and i am sexually active bc like. this is a man who BTW started insulting me and pretty much calling me stupid for using an app to keep track of my period. IMAGINE TELLING THIS MAN IM GAY. so i lied which i know i shouldnt have but i was rlly uncomfortable so i just said "i havent had relations with men" and he started making some WEIRD AND GROSS AND UNCOMFORTABLE comments like how i am """ready""" for a man. im. i cant fucking believe this

KOSA PASSES SENATE 7/30/24
Kosa has unfortunately passed the Senate on a 91-3 vote. I want this to be clear, It’s not going into effect, it still has to get to the House but I believe there will be a break for the month of August which gives us A WHOLE MONTH!! to call your HOUSE representatives and tell them to vote NO on Kosa. It’s not over yet so many people told their senators and representatives that they didn’t want KOSA. We can do it again, PLEASE do not panic and give up!! I know it’s scary I’m very scared right now myself but if we go silent that’s how it’s going to pass the House and get signed to the president. Let’s try to stop that from happening!!!
Call your house representatives!!!!there is more opposition in the House, we can stop it. BLOW UP THEIR PHONES!!
edit: hi everyone!! I’ve made a change to the way I worded this post, I would like to apologize about the confusion I may have caused. When I had meant by “barley passed the Senate” i meant it as a way of saying how so many people voiced their concerns for so long (I first ever found out about Kosa on 7/19/23) which lead it just now getting to the Senate floor for a vote due to the pushback and feedback they had gotten. I apologize if 1. I had confused anyone and 2. If I did not word this right lmao :,) keep calling you’re all doing great!! - audri⭐️
