Things are much better. I got the help I need and I'm thriving for the most part. I'm far more successful than my bullies. Last I saw, they're either dead, addicts/drunks, or working dead-end retail jobs and hate their lives.
I was bullied relentlessly throughout school. Kids told me to kill myself daily. And I tried to multiple times.
My mother contacted the school and the police when my bullies broke into our house when they thought I was home alone and the authorities just said, "Boys will be boys." We moved shortly after.
Honestly, the only thing I see actually working is more Luigis. Gotta have the fucks in charge scared enough to comply, or just outta the way entirely. I'm not advocating violence, obviously, but I honestly don't see anything else bringing about change. Protest doesn't seem to work, and none of the Democrat politicians care enough to actually act. Voting doesn't seem to be worth a damn, but I still do it anyway because it's something I can do and takes like 5 mins. I can't protest because I work, and I can't be loud on online forums where I can be identified because I don't want anyone who knows me professionally (clients) to know my true opinions.
I wanted to get back into horse riding and just doing stuff with horses. I found a stables to volunteer at and I get riding lessons once a week. It's amazing. So glad I called the place when I did. Now I have a group of new friends and I get to do everything I want with the horses aside from official lessons, in exchange for barn chores. I love it
Would love to have one, but my neurologist said even slight vibrations in my mouth can fuck with my epilepsy. That means a migraine because my medicine prevents seizures. Going to the dentist is an affair that wrecks me for the whole day.
It was for a client at work, so I couldn't. I don't know how to install Linux, either. I'm going to try once I get a charger for my old laptop. It isn't a big priority though. I've been playing around with my Steamdeck in desktop mode to try to learn some Linux stuff and it's been going okay.
Fuckin good. I got to a UPMC facility for my lupus treatment and I'm always terrified of catching something while I'm there, despite me masking up. Glad everyone had to do it. I'm severely immunocompromised, so if I get sick, it could get so bad that I could just die.
