If I'm the villain, then you better start running 'cause you won't last long if you're up against me

    perhaps a hot take but I don't like prequel novels about villains' backstories. like, they can be objectively well-written books but it's always like "this villain turns into the heartless cruel evil perfect mastermind that you know and love because their PARENTS never LOVED THEM and they were SAD and their CRUSH DIDN'T LIKE THEM BACK :(" and it's like
    man
    sometimes people are just evil
    this happens particularly with female villains (with heavy emphasis on the tragic romance aspect) and I don't like it
    just let the women suck
    I want evil mastermind women who didn't turn evil because a man rejected them and they were sad about it
    I don't care that their puppy ran away and their parents didn't support their dreams and someone told them their hair looked ugly that one time like
    just let them be evil. please. I'm begging you. stop trying to make me feel bad for idk the queen of hearts or the evil stepmother is this a callout for a specific author? maybe

    figured out the problem! I only had three courses on there (the three prerequisites I needed) and then my equivalency exam results so they thought it was incomplete and didn't update my application status with it. fair enough.
    but like. you'd think they would've called me and been like "hey so what's up with your transcript" more than three days before the deadline and like. idk. FOUR WEEKS AGO WHEN I APPLIED.

    me: yeah, I know. I sent it in and your system didn't accept it and you've been ignoring my attempts to contact you and figure it out
    the college: yeah uhhh not our problem. anyway the deadline for getting that in is this Friday or you'll have to withdraw your application and try again
    me: ... what

    mental health talk moment

    Spoiler! :
    Rejection Sensitive Dysphoria makes things so stupidly difficult sometimes man
    like
    I understand that changes to my lifestyle would probably make life easier for me and enable me to deal with my mental illnesses better but the thought of anyone perceiving me while trying to change anything or even worse: commenting on the fact that I'm doing something differently makes me feel just. so awful. even when it's a change for the better and logically I know that the people around me are going to be happy for me making those good changes, my brain's warped perception of the possibility of rejection drains all my motivation to make changes for the better.
    and it's also really hard when I don't know how to explain that in a way that makes sense to the people around me, specifically my mom. she really, really tries her best but at the end of the day, she's neurotypical and can't understand everything about what's going on in my head. and when she goes "well just do x" I don't know how to explain that it's not that simple because I'm struggling with both the problem that I need to do x to fix and RSD filling me with paralyzing fear over being perceived doing anything in case that's the wrong thing and people don't like it.
    combined with other life stuff and seasonal depression I'm a bit of a mess right now and needed to get this off my chest lmao

    Spoiler! :
    I didn't even know what that was, but a quick Google puts my whole teenage life into context. I hope that venting helped. Decision paralysis is always tough, but very few decisions have to be made as quick as we think. The slower route is sometimes the one that allows us to grow the fastest. :)

    me, dming a dungeons and dragons game, roleplaying the head of the magic guild: so if you could do that for me that'd be great-
    the sorcerer: can you give us a bag of holding
    me: ... excuse me?
    the sorcerer: you've got magic stuff. give us a bag of holding. it'd help us in our mission so give it to us
    me, pulling up the stat sheet for the homebrew baby mimic backpack I found and have been waiting to use: oh sure :)

    that feeling when you nearly start romancing a companion character for the fourth time in a game even though you intended to romance someone else this run because the line they say when you talk to them with low approval hurt your soul

    the song The Last Saskatchewan Pirate is absolutely hilarious and even more so if you start singing/quoting it around someone who has no knowledge of Saskatchewan or the song beforehand
