I had a "the perfect is the enemy of the good" pep talk with my best friend; we playfully bitched about work, and I finished with some exercise.

It's an interesting adage and weirdly, I've encountered it repeatedly today from other people even irl. I think this actually may be the single biggest problem the world has today, or at least the world I care about. SJW-ism is the perfect example of people who would burn down society entirely in the pursuit of some perfect utopia (PROTIP: "Utopia" meant "nowhere"). Almost any kind of fanaticism is.

I wish I understood decision theory more, because an absurd number of people today, given the choice between something kind of good and absolute shit, would choose absolute shit because kind of good isn't the perfection they claim actually to want. Why the fuck is that?

Insurance just called me, they totaled my car (LOL) so from the payout I'll be making more than twice what I still owed on the loan

Job at the piercing studio is on hold for a bit, the lady isn't sure they can afford to hire a new person just yet but will see if it can happen closer to the summer. I'm feeling hopeful, this is someone who I already respect and think will be a much better boss than the one I left. This will give me more time to get some big projects like commissions done and I might even be able to do research on piercing on my own beforehand.

I've been feeling heavily nostalgic for the mid-2010s this week, so you know things are fucked.

Does anyone know how to spot clean coffee out of something that can't go in the wash?

Alls fair in love and war dumbass. Go get some pre-approved pussy.

OT:
I think I'm going to give up and just try to start my life over. Shits been broke over the past 12 months and I kept none of the social circle I built up from my old job. My first experience off in the club after lockdowns was a dud, I can't find decent hookers anymore and my finances are in ruins after the past couple months because I thought taking commission based work was a good idea and I got my ass scammed. I'm going to spend my next few months fixing my shit and then I'll use my college benefits to go fuck around in a college town to forget everything (except the grudges). That was my OG plan before 2020 and it's about time I get back to it.

I keep a color safe Clorox pen in my car's glovebox for just such an occasion. Illinois roads are bumpy and that makes for the occasional car spill while driving.

I’m focusing on school work because I’m depressed and don’t know how to stop feeling like this. At least when I feel anxious, I can breathe and find relief. I want to blame terrible pms but I don’t think it’s normal to hope you don’t wake up when you go to sleep. I just want this feeling to pass.

I know someone who had a hailstorm "total" his car but it was still entirely functional, so he just kept the money and drove around in an ugly ass car for a while.

Yeah my car still ran 100% fine nothing wrong with the engine brakes alignment axles nothing but a big ass dent across the entire passenger side front door and a little bit of the rear door. I think the post/frame probably got a little bent so totalederino

Whatever I'm getting a 5 figure payout from a low speed collision :story:

Hopefully you are feeling better maybe try to take a bit of a break from the school work. In my experience I hit a pretty big low and then just get worst because I try and distract myself with school and work and end up just exhausting myself without feeling better.. Rest is super important.

Kind of pissed off right now at my boyfriend. I've been needing to take my car in for a checkup since it's been 500 miles since I got things repaired on it. This afternoon was one of the few times I could take it in in order to drive out of town later in the week.

I told my bf this situation a couple times over the weekend. He said he wanted to go to the neighboring city to look at a Lego store but he planned to go in the morning. I call him when I get off work at 2, saying I'll probably get to the shop at 2:30. He had been at the Lego shop for a bit already. I ended up getting to the shop later than I thought, at 3:15. I call and he's still at the store. And he wasn't done looking through things. Now, it would take an hour at least to get back here so for all I know it would be 2 more hours. He suggested I walk.

So I did. Because who knows when he'd get here and I didn't want ro awkwardly wait at the mechanic for a couple hours. It's been 30 minutes now and I just got to the main street of our town. Most of that was in the sun and since I didn't plan this I have no hat or sunscreen. My face is already red so I guess I'll have a wicked sunburn all over tomorrow. Guess I'll eat since I'm parched before walking another 40 minutes home. This town is spread out so there's no real public transit and Uber is expensive.

I feel like it's kind if pathetic. Maybe I should've waited like 2 hours. Maybe he could have just not spent so long looking at legoshit. Who knows. My legs hurt.

Went to Church for Easter, watch a ton of little kids up on stage listening to the story of Peter.

Went home to family, had spaghetti and watched the original Nightmare on Elm Street. It has Jesus on a cross as a reoccurring symbol in the film, so it was kinda appropriate. Maybe.

Just feeling pretty good right now.
