The results of rationing could be dire, should you choose to go in that direction.

Right now I'm thinking about how I'm useless because I'm at least 20 years behind everyone else. Today I went to look for some new legal-sized file folders, and I can't believe how hard it is to find them even with all the new back-to-school and office supplies everywhere now. I have a lot, and I really mean a *lot* of drawings because I've been saving them since my late teens, that I drew offline, by hand, on real paper, and it looks like I'm the only person left on the planet who does this instead of everything on a computer. I organize and protect my drawings and hand-written stories by keeping them in separate labeled file folders, but eventually the folders get tattered and I have to replace them. A few days ago I bought some plastic folders but they're small and don't hold many pages. I hate the thought that people now only draw things on computers without drawing them by hand on paper first, where they can easily correct every mistake so it only *looks* like they have skill and talent, like so-called "singers" who use auto-correct and make me furious. Also I feel like they're to trying to "guilt" me since trees have to be cut down in order for me to create my art, even if it's recycled. :(

I am rather tired of listening to the neighbor kids. But at least it is happy noise.

I'm planning on working an extra day every week now. I'm getting tired of gathering recycling and dealing with the tudes of the street people at the recycling depot. I'm getting payed by the box on the farm. $40 a week on the farm sounds a lot better than $25 a week from the bottle depot. Something happened to me two weeks ago, yesterday. A short, scrawny street man was getting ornery with me. He said, "Don't run, lady! I mean it, lady! If you run, I'll pound you into nothing, lady!" and he kept on at it. I told him, "If you call me lady again, I'll kill you!"

So much for recycling in order to get away from the Gender Binary. I know that I'm male deep down inside and that's all that matters. It's bad enough that my mum wants to put me into a little pink box. I also don't find myself confusing, either.

I hate it when they change the names of things, right under your nose, without warning.

A Marathon will always be a Marathon to me. I will never call them Snickers.

They did the same with Opal Fruits too!!

you're never alone. i keep mine in file folders too. :) i also draw on paper all the time. hell, i even feel guilty if i have to use a grid.
on the occasions i do use photo editing programs on my stuff, i draw it by hand first.
i believe every effect made in fancy programs is reproduce-able on paper/ hard copies, you just have to find the right materials and techniques.

I wouldn't even bother going on a quiz show and rattling my brains about for the sake of £1000.

Google Translate is pretty Eurocentric.

What's on my mind right now? Judas and his role in Christianity.
