Update, because I'm busy....

-

 So if you are someone who follows my musings here:

Hey, it's your mentally unstable girl with hot takes. How you doin'? Not good? Me neither. It's been a real hot spicy minute like in The Mask when the masked guy Stanley but not Stanley eats the dynamite and then it blows up and he goes "Thata was a spicy meatball!"

That clip lives in my head rent free. 

Is this what you come here for? There needs to be better things to do on this shitty internet. Speaking of -- I came across a website that hasn't been updated since 1994 on how to make a Strawberry PopTart Flamethrower. I am not kidding. I found it during an assignment for my Desktop Publishing class. It. Is. Glorious.

So now that that is out of the way. I went to Georgian Bay (missed my cats), had a lowkey panic attack, finished second semester, that's about it for past events.

Currents events. Third semester (yikes, also GIVE ME MY MONEY), applying for co-ops, the Whole Election During A Pandemic Thing (uber yikes).

Future events. Going to a wedding (apparently those are things still???), going to a baby shower (people are still unironically having babies??? seems whack but okay), concert I think, lots of doctors appointments, my first tooth filling (lowkey existential crisis), um probably not dying most likely. I want to get rich and famous before I check "kicking the bucket" off the bucket list.

Otherwise I plan to get my tattoo finished soon and to become even more badass because why not?

Also if you want a line to impress your therapist with "Sometimes you need to be selfish to be selfless" makes you sound really woke (but maybe should unironically be your mantra.)

If my life full of crises (I'M THE MOST DRAMATIC PERSON AND RIGHT NOW EVERYTHING IS A CRISIS) can be okay, yours can probably be okay.

Let the dirt exist, dig a hole for no reason, buy yourself sushi (even if your partner judges you, "Look honey, it's called 'self care'") because GODDAMNIT YOU DESERVE IT. Go eat some goddamn sand if it makes you happy.

If all that fails, be sad. It's perfectly reasonable to allow yourself to feel sadness. This positive vibes all the time mindset is fucking toxic to your strawberry kiwi lifestyle.

Fight me.*


*Disclaimer: This spiralled wildly out of control, please don't fight me.

Mourning A Future That Was Never Mine

-
 Hi ladies , gentlemen , and gender non-conforming friendos . It's me, your friendly neighbourhood garbage witch back today with some slightly tepid to slightly lukewarm takes depending on your alignment. From the title you've probably surmised that the topic on my mind today is "Mourning a future that was never mine" but what does that mean? Glad you asked. Mourning a future that was never mine feels kind of like trying to grab something that was never there or to describe a taste you've never tasted. Growing up, I was told to work hard and good things will happen as I'm sure most millennials were. The dream was to own a house! My parents owned a house (albeit briefly), and it was expected that I do the same... eventually.  The problem is that I can't own a house, don't get me wrong I WANT to own a house, I just cannot. And it won't be in the cards for me in the future.  I'm also in this weird conundrum where I have to break a terribl...

Self-Identity

-
What is your self identity? What's the first thing that comes to mind? Probably your name right? But what if you don't identify with your name? Before you ask, this isn't some deep stuff and I'm not telling you I'm getting a penis. Genitals are weird and I don't need more things to worry about. No, what if you didn't feel that your name represented who you are and who you want to become? I have been identifying as a modified version of my name for years now: ELLIE After all, it is my corner of the internet here. But when I fill out a form or go to an appointment, that is not my legal name, I get called something else there. But I feel this weird sort of disconnect to my other name, I don't feel like it represents who I am and who I want to be. As for my last names (yes I have 2), they're both substantially long and when you put them together makes my full last name stupidly long. My last names are my mothers maiden name connected with a little hyph...

It's 5 AM and I hate kittens....

-
Guys, don't get a kitten . If I only ever offer one useful piece of advice, it's to get a cat that is at least a year old. At least. Did you know that cats can and will train humans? Yeah, and you won't even be aware of it.  I am in the process of trying to untrain myself and by extension, my cat. Let me preface this by saying that I love my cats, I really do. But sometimes she makes me want to punch myself in the face as hard as I can. The other one, he's a perfect lil angel.  All joking aside, there is no learning with cats. There is: I can do this when my humans are around! And there is: I should not do this when my humans are around. And the final (and most annoying) category is: I'm going to do this when my humans are around even though I shouldn't to prove a goddamn point. Cats are assholes.  When I wrote the first 3 sentences (important side note: I started this post when trying to untrain said cat and got 3 sentences in until I had to spend 4 hours fro...
