I can behave normally around books

#shitpost #anyway guess who brought home 24 new books today?#if you guessed me. well. you would be correct #in my defense I only bought 5 #for a combined total of usd #where’d the number go. it was 17 usd #the rest were from me going through what my dad was getting rid of for space and claiming it for myself #but either way #24 in one day is a personal record I think #also I do fully intend to read all of these it’s not hoarding for hoardings sake

I still think the most devastating enshittification I've ever seen has been picrew. One of the few dress-up game websites left that's not flash-based and it's become DRENCHED in ads. You can't open the home screen without being blasted by at least three or four ads. You can't open two picrews in a row without watching a video ad first. When you have a picrew open the ads cover up the different options and sometimes even stack on each other so you have to hit like 2 or 3 different x buttons to get it to go away, only for more to appear seconds later. Evil world

#cricket chirping #picrew #I only ever use it on desktop these days since I have an adblocker there #But god forbid I wanna casually throw one together on my phone #I don't know if the new app has ads or not but tbh idk if I wanna know. The website is bad enough

I think this is just a trend everywhere but I've been very frustrated this week by how much admin work is being outsourced to me as the patient/customer.

My orthodontist tells me I can make an appointment with the surgeon. I call the surgeon. They tell me I need a new referral. I call the orthodontist. They do a referral. I call the surgeon. Referral didn't come through. They tell me about their special unique system we have to use. I call the ortho again and walk them through the referral. I call the surgeon. They say the referral was missing some details so they have to do it again. I call the ortho.

The insurance company calls me about repair shops. I give them the name of the repair shop which I already gave them yesterday. They say they're not in their system but I can use them, but I have to call the repair shop to ask them to contact the insurance company. I call the repair shop and they say the insurance company is supposed to email them.

I feel like at a certain point these constant fetch quests become unreasonable?? Is it too much to expect these groups to communicate with each other instead of making me run back and forth between them???

#if the referral is inadequate why don't you tell the referring doctor directly?#instead of waiting several days for me to call you and THEN saying it's wrong #and making me take care of it #don't get me started on the professionally threatening email I had to send the regional director #for her to FINALLY send us an email introducing our new manager who was supposed to start 4 days ago

they should invent an understanding and intellectualizing your feelings that makes them go away!!!

#like everything im feeling rn can be explained by 1. shortest day of the year 2. lack of structure and physical separation from my friends #3. my brand new anxiety and depression diagnoses #4. [redacted]#but im still feeling so wretched
