Oh yeah, everything went fine. Basically I have minor diverticulitis but(t) that's it.

How old are you again?!?!?

[My Name is Immaterial]

Spoiler: Just need to share. (click to show/hide)

I came out as kinky to my mother today.

To give some background: I've been going to the kink group on campus recently, and I've got really into the group, and I volunteered to help establish a club to be the group's public face, so we can put on events and bring in speakers, to help educate people about how to be kinky and safe.
I've only come out to a handful of people, mostly very, very close friends, and even then, it's really hard to come out. Y'all are an exception, cause this is the internet.



I didn't want to.

I didn't want to come out to my parents yet. Now was really not the best time. I wasn't ready. I hadn't even state to prepare mentally, much less physically (I had a whole PowerPoint envisioned, where I got to explain my kinkiness, explain who I am, and why I feel the things I do, and explain that there's no need to be worried, that I'm being safe, that I'm not immoral, that I'm not a bad person for being who I am. That's not really an option any more. ).


I let something slip about the club, and my mother grabbed onto it, and refused to let go. I explicitly said I wasn't interested in talking about it yet, but she continued to hound me.
When I refused to come out and tell her about the nature  of the club I was starting, she switched tactics, and started asking directly if it was or wasn't X.
X was, in order, Bernie Sanders related, weed related, Jill Stein related, (I go to school in northern California. That's the sort of people up at school.) or "are you one of those 1000, 100, 50 Shades of Grey people?"


I knew that I'd have to come out at some point. Hiding this has already been eating away at me for years. I had to come clean at some point. Lying would just have made coming out on my own terms worse.





So I told her. I told her yes, yes I was. I explained that I was being safe, and that I didn't want to talk about this right now.
She got the message that time.



Please don't quote this. I'm not sure I want to keep it up. Just needed to tell someone.

@MNII:It's okay, dude.  You be you, and they'll come around.

-housemate stuff-

Okay shit. This stuff has really come to a head.
I don't know what the hell I should do in this situation. Might even start a Life Advice thread at this rate. Arrghh.
My own life was shit enough before I had several other shit lives all leaking shit onto mine as well, and me the one expected to mop it up.

Holy spherical objects, university is hard

Had to rush a biopsy today because of f**ing course it was either today or in two weeks thanks to my workload. This resulted in an hour delay in everything

Sounds like it's a good time to.

AGREED

Going to have two cavities filled. Wish me luck and minimal pain!

Good luck and may any resulting loopiness only be pleasant.

[Dozebôm Lolumzalìs]

No loopiness! It was caught so early that the cavity did not extend past the enamel. Only mild discomfort as a vibrating tool shook my tooth, no drills or anything. Also no huge needles! Yay!

(You'd think that a T1 diabetic would eventually lose his fear of needles after spending several years getting shots every day. You'd be wrong.)

That's great! what tool did they use?

[Dozebôm Lolumzalìs]

I'm not quite sure. When it wasn't vibrating, it looked like a thin metal stick with a tiny ball at the end.

Then they shoved cotton into my mouth and put a thousand layers of goo onto my tooth. (Mostly exaggerating. The cotton was a thing.)

Then they did the first step again, except shoving a plasticky thing between my teeth and having me bite down every time they stopped.

But it worked!

[Yoink]

Time for serious public transport adventures. Hope I can manage to not be late.

[Yoink]

Double-posting because, like, it's rent day.
By which I mean the day that my tenants are due to pay their rent to me. I have to go ask them for rent... and then write out receipts and all that.
I also need to hope that they're all fine with paying the amount I'm going to ask for, considering that they're all living in different sized rooms etcetera.
