Actually a range of surreal general warning t-shirts is not such a bad idea.
Warning: Short Attention Spa...
Contents possibly flawed
And so forth. No doubt these witty t-shirts already exist and are on a par with "Electricians do it in shorts"

I came across someone who sold badges in sets saying things like "Bad pain day" or "Brain fog"
I briefly considered it but then realised I may as well just have "PAIN" tattooed on my forehead.
with "nausea" underneath it in swirly script.

Sounds like a good tattoo.  Maybe with that special text which is ambiguous - at first glance says "I'm fine" but on closer inspection says "f?ck you, everything hurts"  |

Paizo are automatically trying to pay an older email account (despite previous email change) and their site is impossible to navigate. Darkness's TV is refusing to work on channels I want to watch. Next door's TV is blaring - wanted to counter the noise.  The browsers or connection are being super slow. Super tired. Wound up by stupid things. Very difficult to fix technical things. I think a general GRR is in order. |

One day someone will actually be able to explain to me why the ethernet /LAN connection to the internet doesn't work whilst the wifi is fine.  |

Restarting alone didn't work but a full shutdown and restart did the job. Heh. Business as usual. Have you tried turning it on and off again? |

Having a lot of fun with my favourite department...they are so kind, helpful, honest and fair...I'm so glad I can trust the DWP to do their bloody jobs correctly and follow the law!

Mehfr, I think you just broke the forum's Sarcasm Buffer. __ I'm am so not focussed on looking for work. Again, I seem to be baffled by simplest structuring of a CV. Perhaps I should just cover it with my designs and see what the temp agencies make of it. Wasted a lot of time the other night having an imaginary rant with the DWP. Darkness and I are being assessed at the same time (her for a personal budget, myself for none-existent extra help for being her "carer"), I can't help thinking that they are delaying finishing her assessment so that I can scupper the whole operation with my assessment, by me saying the wrong thing. I really don't trust them. They are supposed to help, but they've already told Darkness that she might have to do 12 weeks with Inclusion Support, who are just F?cking file carrying tick box monkeys. Waste of money and time. (May delete this later) |

I have no right to have "Sunday Blues", no early start, no long arduous week of grind. And yet it is here nonetheless. I think its something to do with having to be a grown-up during the week days, in case someone tries to catch me out.
Bizarre.

I think Darkness's neighbours must be aliens. Their food smells so bad that no human palette could eat that without wretching.

I was just scrolling through articles on an online magazine type site. An intersectional feminist thing.
And got to the headline "What if we treated physical health like we treat mental health?"
YES IMAGINE
YES JUST IMAGINGE
WHAT WOULD IT BE LIKE
if you could go to the doctor and say "hi I'm in pain" and they'd say huh, do you get enough sun?
or if you'd say to your parent "I couldn't do the thing" and they'd say it wouldn't KILL you to just try!
or if you'd explain to your teacher that your work is late because you were in bed all weekend and they'd say we all get tired...
I CAN'T COMPREHEND THE POSSIBILITY THAT
oh f?ck off

I've mangaed to kill my PC again.
Windows 10 was doing some very strange stuff, so I tried to run a recovery program, and now it doesn't boot up at all. I think it can't even find the hard drive.
Feeling utterly powerless.
Waste
of
time

^ Ugh
I had some quite serious-looking error messages after I switched to windows 10.
Like you're fucked you need to reinstall windows oops no I can't find that partition I'm shutting down now
but then after a few hours... it just started booting up normally again.
My rant isn't really a rant
I forgot to take my meds today because I'm a genius
And the only thing I'm noticing is nausea. from not taking the pills that I take to prevent the side effects of the other pills that I take. none of which I took today.
Sometimes it's tempting to take no meds at all! (not that tempting though)

 Don't forget to take pills. (I nearly ran out of my ADs but thankfully the pharmacy had some for me, in the nick of time! Which is apt because the manager is called Nick) Mr Dat500 helped to fix my computer and it's like it's brand new (again). I've configured Thunderbird to import all 8 of my web mail accounts (the three old yahoo ones are a bit of a bugger because the extra levels of security demanding that I generate new pass codes for each account, only after the server has texted me to check I'm human) I really must clear out some of my inboxes. I mean I think I saw an email dated 1999 in there.  |

(It was at Darkness's place in the end)
I can't sleep.
I've just been digging through a really large pile of clothes on the floor. Apparently I have six fleeces. Just in time for frickin Summer. Half the clothes are probably not clean enough to give away and the washing machine drum is so small.
I think I may actually have a genuine hoarding problem. There are times when you can't see the floor, and then there's a layer of receipts and screwed up paper, envelope bags. There are no places left to put things away. I never put things away, properly - everything is in a sort of "pending" pile. I hate tiredness. It screws up the perspective - especially the part that solves the problems.
I think I need someone to be here to help nudge, but not to judge. This flat is a good size, and I've filled it.
I need a month here just to get things in order. But I'm rubbish in the day - how will I ever work again?
Oops, sorry, maybe more of a VP post.

I think I'm going to learn a whole bunch of East European languages and maybe convert to Muslim just to piss all these xenophobes off!

If Jeremy Corbyn is ousted from the Labour Party leadership, I might resign my party membership and stop my subscription. He is the reason I joined the party.

 This is the second one of these I've had after filling in Tesco's tedious job questionnaires. I think we might be getting off to a bad start. I've emailed the recruitment team to demand "what do they want?!". I'm pretty sure most till-monkeys would fail these tests.  I know, I know, I sound arrogant, but hey! At least provide decent feedback, tell me to go on a special course or something. |

Smashed a full, unopened bottle of wine.
I've got an open bottle that's f?cking awful. Didn't smash that. Smashed the bottle I would've probably enjoyed.
Then broke the handle off a mug.
Not one of my horrible free promotional mugs, no, but one of my pair of nice matching mugs.
Also there was a centi/milli-pede in my kitchen and I freaked out a little bit.
I don't mind spiders. I hate pretty much everything else.

Stupid man from stupid building management company banging on my flat's door at 8.30am, after a pretty much sleepless night. He had to spray some weird stuff at the fire/smoke/heat alarm in my hallway. The first time he tried, he sprayed it too low and some went into my mouth (well, I accidentally breathed it in anyway). Then he did it again, higher, and it worked, the little red light started flashing regularly. Twatty man with his vile spray. I've brushed my teeth and had a drink but I can still taste it and my mouth is all dry. |
