How are you doing? - Kiwi Farms Wellness Check

I had to help a DoorDash driver scan my license so I could have my smokes, his phone was set to French and I was real proud I still know enough to get it done, I also rated myself highly as a customer so I felt good about that

Came home drunk yesterday, went to bathroom to take a shit, got my pants down and was just about to sit when some bitch suddenly yelled at me that I have to turn off the airplane mode before I can do that.

The culprit, a cheap so called ruggedized smartphone, ulefon armor something or another. The bitch was Google assistant. A heavy fucking phone with an unlock button that fires if you just about breathe on it. Since then, I've buttdialled people twice, and turned on the airplane mode in same manner at least once. Seriously considering testing the damn things drop resistance rating by flinging it out of a 3rd floor window.

Been a bit over a week since moving to the Great Satan that is California. So far, still whitepilled because the normal folk are just that -- normal (not much different than Arizona). State government and University is full of shitlibs, but there are enough normal people to make life tolerable. Had dinner with my graduate advisor (who is quite based) and we were both relieved to have somebody to talk to w/o getting canceled. Refreshing AF dialogue example:

Advisor: "The only people who wear masks unprovoked are Communists and Democrats."
Me: "Boss, that's a redundancy"

Otherwise, loving my California climate, history, and deep family roots. I know this site wants CA to disappear in the "Big One", but I want to try and convince y'all there are some based folk still here making it worthwhile. Regaining my native California pride (despite it being horribly unpopular in almost all circles).

Yesterday marks 8 full years since I first joined this site. I love u all, frens:feels:
I spent that evening at a concert seeing friends I haven't hung out with since pre-pandemic and met some people I've talked to online who are fans of the band. The world is starting to seem *almost* normal again!

Over the weekend I got some stuffiness in my ear looked at by a NP, it looks like I have some intense swimmers ear or some other kind of infection. They've put me on a mix of antibiotics and steroids, told me to see an ENT if no improvment in 10 days. I am not worried...well, actually, I am a bit worried. Combined with work stress and what appears to be some psoriasis flareups, I could be doing better. In other news, I made a gallon of lemonade with fresh squeezed lemons I scored from a farmers market. It's the best damn drink i've ever had.

I'm a bit annoyed at people. Although the take home message from the study was that the reactive oxygen species being produced is bad, the fact remained they said that the oxygen production from the algae increased by 400-800% at higher temperatures. I guess people forgot what photosynthesis is and the fact that this means there's an increase in CO2 being converted into sugars. Then I remember that this was predicted by this one scientist in some South American country years ago. I remember he got shitted on by the climate *scientists* and the media for saying this. This makes me mad in real life.

Been suicidal for like 10 years, especially bad for the last 4 years or so. Managed to illegally get my hands on pentobarbital in July, which is the same drug they use to execute prisoners and perform euthanasia. It is actually easier to get your hands on this than a firearm in my country. Every hour of every day I consider taking it and it's only a matter of time before I work up the balls to do it.

What's the rush? Pentobarbitol stays effective for years if you keep it in a coolish, dark place.
You might find that simply having the option right there, easy to hand makes things a little more tolerable. After all, you've got your out for when shit gets bad, so why not stick around and laugh at morons for a while longer?

Broke, sick, aging in some sort of hideous speeded up time-lapse effect. Generally under a lot of stress.
Fucked up at work in a way I can't blame on an underling and was catastrophising for a while but it turns out it wasn't that big a deal and I just look like an idiot to the admin people, which I'm used to. So that's a relief.

Could be worse. At least I can still laugh at lolcows.
