I mean, he gave me credit because it's all technically true. I think he just saw it as padding because I was so verbose about it.

So on an entirely different note, i'm sure some of you have caught on by now that there's some fuckery going on in my hands. Right now, my hands are doing pretty okay... But instead, a major nerve in my left upper arm (ulnar nerve probably, if the light tingling in my pinky finger is anything to go by) hurts rather much. This is definitely something i need to bring up with Mr. Physiotherapist, because i don't want any lasting nerve damage anywhere.
That's unfortunate.

There is no god for me to pray to, nor will there ever be.
You could join my church. I don't demand human sacrifices (although I'll take 'em if you're offering) and I don't have many rules.

Seriously though, I get the feeling that your "foreboding feeling" is mainly just linked to feeling bad about the therapist situation. Possibly.

Nah, I've had the foreboding feeling too, but it's more that this is the third year humanity has been consuming more than the planet can naturally replenish and instead of changing the tune it's mostly been more of the same path of empire that's been pursued since Sumerian times and that usually leads up to a collapse but it's interesting now that there's nowhere for anyone to run to and there's nowhere to hide thanks to post-modernity, post-Holocene Era. It's actually the first year of the Anthropocene Era, so we're officially in 0AE. I would suggest coming up with ways to produce more food on less arable land.

Wait, it's only been three years?

Year one though, wohoo! We did it guys!

I poured another $300 into my computer to no result.
Apparently the motherboard needs to be sent to manufacturer for update.

Fuck it. I'm done with it. I don't want to touch another computer again.

I *seriously* think you should contact your therapist and communicate with them--mainly because there should be counseling before termination of that professional relationship, as well as referral towards another therapist. Checking the details there, do NOT ASSUME (influenced by mood and perception). Especially if you'll conclude by assumption--you're no waste of whatever, you're an awesome person and someone I am glad to call my friend ever since I met you. Contact that dude, don't not believe in yourself, (and maybe in the meantime, conduct wholesome assessment of yourself given the tools they suggested before :O).

Feelings are only given meaning by the thoughts that accompany them. This generally happens in the quickened speed of thought--hence why sometimes people already have meanings to their feelings :D You're a good guy to me, and you got to appraise yourself too when things like a total lack of communication/silence comes up, so you're aware of where your current mindset is going. Please contact your therapist instead of letting the line go dark.

Apparently we have E. Coli in the water. And I keep drinking from the tap like usual without thinking about it. At least there's some boiled water sitting around for the off-chance I remember about it.

Also, why is there E. Coli in the water? Ew. Council, do your job (though I guess they are sending people around to every house in the area to warn of the shitty water, so that's kinda cool, I guess).

The standard explanation for E. coli being in water is that it's shitty in the literal as well as the figurative sense. And if there's E. coli, there's probably worse stuff in there as well on account of above-average fecal content (given that the gut of the average wild animal is a very colorful place to say the least). So maybe it's best to drink as little of it as humanly possible.

Do as your distant ancestors did when faced with this situation: turn your water into alcohol and drink it! :P

Drinking water from the tap is pretty much not a thing people do in my town.

The supermarket was all out of cinnamon doughnuts. They only had jam and sugar doughnuts.
And I made the trek all the way over there specifically for doughnuts, too... I ended up buying a packet of cheap-brand salt and vinegar crisps instead, since I didn't say anything particularly exciting.

Also my anxiety started playing up on the trip. That wasn't pleasant.
I guess I haven't been leaving my house a whole lot lately... although when I have there hasn't been too much anxiety.
Maybe my subconscious just somehow sensed the lack of cinnamon doughnuts at my destination, and picked up bad vibes from that. :-\

I'm hoping she meant "so you start praying your ass off for a miracle and find religion" not "return to God" in the sense of dying. It's slightly less horrible than the alternative.

well everything went as badly as i expected and since my question got hijacked i'll keep it to that, and just say that i can probably maybe talk to people one on one (even though it always goes badly and incredibly awkwardly because i am not an interesting person or social at all) but that it's basically fucking impossible to talk to a group of people who know eachother. i just cant participate in the fucking conversation and it frustrates me SO FUCKIGN MUCH
