This is the general category of fuckery that goes on and on and doesn’t seem interested in stopping.

Scraping together what I can this week
The weed story will be much the same
But at least I’ll have nicotine
I wish this upcoming so called disabled people uplifting benefit was $2000 a month
Not a year.
Oh yeah I’m just going to save those $200 allotments
That’s possible
I’m not sure how I’m going to fair
This promise of continued struggle just makes me want to run away
I wish I could run away from my disease
Maybe I’m being spared from something
But the hours, days, weeks, months, I have spent alone
Have simply prepared me to want to give up
I miss mostly well me
Lonely as hell
But entertained, drugged appropriately, and fed
That was nice
I’m an idiot
But at least I can say I had a nice time again before I die
That’s not happening again any time soon
It’s not like I can’t understand, other than in my worst moments, why no one is rushing in to help
I would help me, but I would help everyone, and I’m not a good benchmark
Why anyone has to live like this I’ll never know
I’ll never understand it
The fact that most people on this planet are worse off than me just
It shouldn’t be this way
I’m so stuck
I need an income
I can’t make the income I need
So, like, what?
I’m not finding a partner. I can’t offer sex, and most people don’t like that
Some person who doesn’t want to live with me officially, because I may lose my benefits, and will never be able to marry me, similarly so, who doesn’t want sex, or place expectations on me I’ll never meet until they slowly fade into obscurity like everyone else
Yeah right
I don’t know
I dream of a way out because I can’t actually find my way out
There aren’t chances all over town
Only for those with connections
I don’t know if I want to be here for the next four years
It’s really hard right now
I feel like every time I think I’ve found the darkest my life will go it gets darker
And suddenly I’m craving the light of suffering to the lesser degree
I need like $100 to just show up
Why does it always feel like that amount no matter how much I make except for on my PWD days.
I’m so lost
Like I’m awful with money, I know this
All my life I’ve never saved a cent.
I’ve done dumb, desperate things, to try to get money
I hate money, but the original capitalistic need to have money got to me initially
Now it’s actual need most of the time
Last April to June was just me breaking
This life isn’t sustainable
If I don’t have entertainment I go insane
Sorry
And entertainment isn’t like needing to play games or watch TV all the time, I’d crochet and make things, do things
Probably try a lot more things
Be able to get access to materials that don’t hurt my hands so I could wrap stones more easily
Just things that make time go by if I can’t interact with any person in person
Everything is digital
I hate it
So much shit all the time
I want a simpler life that doesn’t involve being hungry all the time or being bored and alone out of my skull

This is probably going to be short, I have a headache, but I just wanted to say thank you.
To all you people who still read this or have joined in to read
I recieved my first tip on ko-fi yesterday from some lovely human who no doubt just wanted to brighten my day a bit
And I was in it yesterday
Petulant and not functioning
I use this site as a place to put my terrible thoughts
The ones that are caused by the culmination of all my life
Where I go in my worst moments
Because people should know what suffering looks like
And I say that not in that I want to be on display
But that someone has to write from the poverty point of view
The I can’t afford to publish my own book point of view
Afford the money nor the energy
People need to see the disabled point of view
And, yeah, I’m not myself when I’m suffering
No kidding
But y’all still here and I appreciate that
I see some names that have stuck around over the years and I appreciate you
I’m probably not going to be myself much over the next few months
I don’t know how I can be, facing the end of an actual era of my life
Again
For the worse
Again
I don’t know
I don’t feel like me at all right now
I feel locked behind doors of panic and fear
I may drop off the radar at some point
But I’m trying my best
I’m failing, but I’m trying my best.
Thanks for hanging around.
Thanks S, you allowed me to find a bit of light yesterday that got me out of bed and eating dinner, rather anything at all.
Forever appreciated

Pain management get
And all is right in the
It’s not though because I can’t afford food again which means another week of depression food
And Trump is going to be president
And Americans are telling me that I, as a Canadian, have no right to talk on their politics
Because apparently my province didn’t just almost elect a far right wing party because the swamp is fucking spilling over Linda
Her name isn’t Linda it just fit
Sorry Linda
I’m terrified
Gaza is fucked
Lebanon is fucked
My LGBTQIA+ siblings in the states
Every woman
I want to be there when his followers get fucked by him
Like I want to see the hope drain from their eyes
I don’t want to do anything bad to them
But I just want to see how it feels
Would I feel superior?
Would I feel bad for them?
Should I even feel bad for them?
I am all for loving thy neighbour
Up until the point said neighbour has a gun pointed at me, carries signs damning me to hell, or tries to take away the rights of women
Or anyone else
God
Were you not prepared for this animosity?
Yes you God with a capital you
Made in your image?
Such a vengeful
Nasty
Selfish
Narcissistic
Image
That eventually they’d be just like you?
Little mini gods
With guns!
My therapist was supposed to have surgery
My calendar just reminded my of our appointment that I tried to cancel on Monday
I just realised I haven’t heard anything at all
Thanks calendar, 5/10
I know the reason I’m more anxious than usual
Is that there’s so much anxiety
Just, everywhere
I feel, very much, like a shaken up pop right now
I would be that Sakura flavoured drink they released that year I lived in Japan
I probably taste like one that was made then too
I want to go home
That place where the light is
Had a replica
For a bit
Something about even an endless night having a dawn
They sing better songs in my dreams
But where is mine?
I believe I told you the last one was a fake
Where is the dawn for all these people?
All these people who are living similar lives to me?
Worse?
I wish I could be
Anything close to helpful
Trapped
They scream they have freedom with their legs anchored to the floor
I scream we don’t have freedom
They call me and all others like me insane
I’ll let you know how that went for them

It really feels like the sky is joining in when I cry
Every time I’ve come to the back door in tears it’s raining alongside me
It even eased off just now when I stopped crying
There are lots of reasons to cry
I was just crying because a person I follow on Instagram lost her soul cat last month and just announced she lost her dad on October 30th as well
Before that I was crying because a cat I follow has recovered from his illness to the point of bringing his mum stuffies again (which is his favourite thing to do)
Yup, the rain stopped as soon as my tears did
Peculiar
The sky took it personally when I said I didn’t have anyone to halve my tears with?
That moment of solidarity where the weather mirrors me
The opposite of those days the nice weather seemed to mock my pain
I’m massively uncomfortable right now, waiting until my dealer is up to bring me my weed
Being awake is hard
But I felt less alone when I opened the door and the sky was crying with me
It’s sad
To lose a parent is one of the most profound experiences a person can have
Because all at once that little person inside you who believed they’d always be there is proven wrong
I haven’t really experienced it yet
Besides people who claimed they were my parents and just disappeared like everyone else
“I love you like my own”
Your own should probably be careful then as your love is conditional
But the thought of losing my mum has weighed heavily on me
She’s sick, like me, but she’s had the disease for about 15 years longer, so it’s done worse to her body than mine, I’m sure
She had to get heart surgery because her heart was going too slowly
I cry for other people, a lot
I cry about my own pain, but usually I’m crying for others
I’ve been crying too much lately
Too many things going wrong
But, if the sky will cry with me
Maybe I won’t feel so alone

There’s nothing like suffering when you know others are having a good time
Be it me sitting at the backdoor in Summer, on my some several months alone, listening to people talking and laughing in the evening
Or just knowing that I’m the one in my family who’s struggling while others are just fine
Trying not to get jealous of the delicious food they’re probably eating while I’m eating crap
I don’t want to resent them
But I do
There’s nothing like hearing about how other people are enjoying themselves when I can’t
It’s just going to get worse
Either I’m in some house somewhere up island all alone or I’m here paying way too much rent to live in a trailer
Or I’m homeless
And I’d almost rather be homeless than live in the trailer
Everything feels like it’s mocking me
Like all the enjoyment is at my expense
And who cares if I sleep all day and don’t function and waste my life?
They’re all fine.
That’s what matters right?
That everyone else is fine
I just have to suffer through another night and another morning and then I can afford my pain management
My pain is meaningless to anyone but me
Doesn’t matter
Never did

Fucking condescending emojis
That actually mean Please shut up
And not what they actually mean
I don’t want to deal with you please go away – emoji
Just suffer in silence no one wants to hear about it
No one cares if I’ve been crying for two days straight
Or that I’m suffering
Or that I really want to take every pill in my house so I can just escape the fucking silence
As long as I’m suffering and silent everyone is happy
So often I feel like that wretch in Omalas who had to suffer so everyone else could enjoy life
They don’t care
I say I’m suffering they say “oh I’m sorry”
Hug emoji
It’s nothing
It’s empty words that won’t change my situation
Just ugly little words that don’t mean anything
I’m waiting for the drugs to kick in so I can go back to sleep
And fuck it if I need them later
No one gives a shit
It’s almost like they enjoy watching me suffer
Empty bullshit words
It’s like I’m stuck in a burning building calling for help and everyone walks past and just says “I’m so sorry” and keeps going
Nothing matters
I don’t matter
I never mattered
I want to get to enjoy today too but I can’t
So fuck it
Who the fuck cares if I don’t have pain management?
They can’t feel it
I want to die
