"depression is eating me up and distorting all perspective" is the foundation all the other bad feeling builds on ime, and keeping that at the forefront of my mind when i'm really struggling is key to getting at least some way back on track
it's fuckin hard tho, i feel you

"Invitation to a Gunfighter": Yul Brynner is fucking KILLING IT
― The Man Who Was Thirsty (Noodle Vague), Tuesday, 19 November 2019 16:57 (four years ago) link
i feel - on days like this, which are shitty and hungover and stupid - like i'm always the one who has to reach out to my children. they never initiate a meet-up. and they live with their mom and then kvetch about her to me when it suits and sometimes, mostly, i think well this is normal and its ok but sometimes it just makes me feel very very nobody writes to this colonel

"Invitation to a Gunfighter" was pretty excellent but you can see Hollywood struggling to rein in his sexuality

I think Ancient Aliens gets played on one of the high number terrestrial channels but that stuff hurts my head
I found a good Chinese series of "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" on Youtube the other week but I'm too befuddled for subtitles today.

i'm always the one who has to reach out to my children. they never initiate a meet-up
NV, I spent a few minutes earlier today realizing I haven't reached out to my own parents for a while. I think it's a parent/child dynamic and I've actually asked my parents if they'd want me to call/meet up more often. It's totally legit for you to say "hey, it'd really help if you called or visited a bit more often"
maybe set up a regular evening or whatever
― mh, Tuesday, 19 November 2019 20:35 (four years ago) link
I do take both of them out on the reg and I think you're right, it's what children do. That's what I was pondering.

Both of them. The two that live down the road. The eldest is in Essex, poor lad.

Sitting outside vets with a naughty kitten, sky’s darkening rapidly and it’s not even 3.30, and I can see a GET BORIS GONE tactical voting billboard. That’s pretty blue, right?

it's been dark all day round here
i thought naughtiness was a design feature of kittens?
― The Man Who Was Thirsty (Noodle Vague), Thursday, 21 November 2019 15:30 (four years ago) link
The kind of naughty where she ate a sharp piece of skewer and is frisking around like I’m not stressing over it! Feeling like a bad kitten owner rn.

yeah that's a bit much. frisking is good tho surely. you don't get these issues with a doner.

❤️ when’s the last time you had a drop?
― gyac, Monday, 2 December 2019 17:36 (four years ago) link
last Tuesday/early hours of Wednesday
the craving is mostly a 30 minute blast that comes occasionally, i just have to ride them out, obviously the internal argument "hey why not have a drink? fuck it" is the tough bit too, it's like gawping into the void which is there whether i drink or don't drink tbf
right now it will just not help, that's my mantra, feeble as it is
and i really like booze/pubs. maybe buy a lottery ticket.
― éminence rose et jaune (Noodle Vague), Monday, 2 December 2019 17:41 (four years ago) link
