Based on bro’s assessment, it was just going over his head. Which just seems… shockingly stupid to me?
We will talk.

I’m so sick of ugly desk that I’m throwing it out. But I’m not sure if a desktop without a desk is a decent life choice either.
Also headache
Also cat puke
Also need to toss a printer and a weird blind rail. So that’s three elevator trips. And a bag of garbage.
Also I’m whiny

Kudos to you for addressing this - it’s an uncomfortable topic and I hope this makes the person a bit more aware since it seems to have been more unintentional than malicious (but really??? geez). Both my spouse and I have been misgendered before - it doesn’t bother either of us that much, but we are both always surprised that someone is that clueless.

Yes, talk. With firm tones.

We’re here to help with Mama Bear Support. Oro is good with words but I’ll just throw biodegradable rainbow glitter in their face until they get it.

RIP yellow squash. 
The entire top of the plant was broken off this morning. It might have been partially my fault (accidentally cutting into it when I cut one off yesterday, combined with sprinklers that hit it somewhat hard), or maybe an animal. It might be a blessing in disguise, but I am sad it left this earth before its time. I could have probably gotten a couple dozen more squash from it!
I guess, this is why you have more than one. But I had more than one last year and it was legit overwhelming how many squash I grew.

I got so much done today! But I did way too much and now I have a fever and am puking.
Tomorrow is also a full day.

I am not the same size I was 2 months ago. I’m frustrated my standard size has too much variation for my self-made clothing to fit then & now.
(OTOH, an excuse to make more skirts?)

I’m trying to find a pumpkin oat slice recipe and everything has way too many ingredients. I’m gonna wing it and hope it works out.

I tore a work / smart casual dress big rip in the fabric in a very visible place. I can repair it, but it will be a visible repair and it won’t be considered work appropriate afterwards, so… I probably have to buy a new work dress.

Yesterday’s complaint: I was stuck at home all day.
Today’s complaint: I would like to be stuck at home instead of stuck at work.

A friend has been doing decorative embroidery over rips. Maybe a possibility for this one?

It’s in an unfortunate spot for embellishment 
so a lovely rose bush may seem inappropriate???

I just woke up in a crummy mood. Really hoping it improves as the day goes on. Being grumpy and irritable is no fun.
Also, I haven’t been able to sleep past 5:30am in well over a week. Regardless of bed time. This might be related…

I am really tired of being a tenant.
I am also tired of having a brain that catastrophizes unnecessarily.

well, the plumber is coming today. And the garage door opener broke on Sunday (someone comes tomorrow) - so right now I am tired of being a homeowner.
I hope it gets better for you

Even on the cold days I have been wearing shorts and a tank top all summer. Today I’m wearing jeans and a long sleeved shirt. I’m not emotionally prepared to let go of summer.

It’s mostly a small complaint. I just hate dealing with incompetent people (especially when it’s the landlord and money is involved). And California rental costs. And my dumb brain that is so paranoid and scared of losing housing, even when it’s suuuuuper unlikely that will ever happen.
I hope your house stops breaking soon.
