So in addition to having my catalytic converter stolen a month ago, I have also recently become a victim of a different, white collar crime in my professional life that I cannot discuss here. I will call it 'the thing.'
I am fine in all ways that matter, but the thing is very upsetting. It is a huge violation of my trust, and I may never know the full extent to which I have been taken advantage of and used. It is creating a lot of extra work for me that is stressful that I don't have time for. I also have to work with law enforcement and other authorities which is something that may go on for some time.
For the most part, I do not have to think about the thing all the time. Work is busy and I feel relatively good and confident when I am doing the thing I am good at. But then I'll get a call or email and have to deal with the thing and I just get rattled all over again.
And because I am avoiding discussing the thing in writing (I have done nothing wrong, but I don't want to say or do anything that could be misconstrued), all of my usual release valves -- venting here, chatting/texting friends -- are off limits. I can't really do anything about my anxiety until I have a private space and time for a phone call.
All of this is to say, I am super stressed out and a little anxious and I wish I wasn't just swallowing that internally all the time.
...fucking hell, I need a therapist.

lived my whole life in guilt bc i thought i was responsible for people's feelings. newly realizing that other people are responsible for their feelings and reactions, even if they make it seem like i'm the problem. a lot of the time it really has to do w them and their own emotional regulation. i can't keep thinking i'm not allowed to have space bc of other people's insecurities. like i literally refuse to dim myself. other people are responsible for their feelings just as i'm responsible for mine.

Could I request Medic having The Mom Grip on Scout’s shoulder after the speedy moron almost let a mercenary secret slip while they weee getting groceries?
Three Europeans and two Americans walk into a grocery store in New Mexico.
I hope this is the right meme.
More silliness below.
This comic is the antithesis of the "wtf is a kilometre" joke.
The faces they make when they can't quite identify the type of brown bread in the bread aisle.
You don't know how [insert nationality here] you are until you go overseas and things are different.
Spy obviously has no problems with pretending to know how much a gallon of milk is, he just peeks into his conversion chart notes, pretending it's his shopping list.
I want to think Heavy is completely fine with having to readjust to a new unit system, he just eyeballs most practical things anyways by holding them up and mumbling about how they approximately weigh like a chicken or his kettle bell etc. He's always been living in practical ignorant bliss.
Medic has a peer reviewed meltdown the first time he realises there's no uniformity in "a cup of ____" because every object has different densities. He's diligent about memorising the conversion rates for ounces, pounds, the most common things etc., and recovers ok. He goes through the same stages of grief rage when he finds out about distances and lengths.
Just remember four inches are 10.16 cm and pray no one asks you to specify anything bigger than inches.
Everyone does a mental victory lap when they manage to guess how much Celsius the weather is because they keep forgetting it's Celsius*5/9+32=Fahrenheit, Engineer reminds them patiently.
The true victories are the correct temperature guesses we've made along the way.
One time, a friend asked me if I actually knew how much a tablespoon of flour was in gramms to convince me that metric users also make use of volume based units without thinking about them. But little did she know a heaped spoonful of 405 flour is about 15g and a level tablespoon is 10g.
They claim Oolong just tastes better when it's boiled to 80°C exactly with a Bunsen burner.
You only asked for one scene but somehow I came up with a bunch of other things. This post was drawn across 2 months so the artstyle is all over the place. Thanks for your ask!
