Oh, believe me, I understand that entirely. I've dealt with my share of scammers.

I dislike a lot of criminal activity, but I can't stand scammers. I hate them so much.
They're predators, is what they are and I hate predators >>
People will say "Well, it's the victim's fault for being stupid enough to fall for a scam!"
Yeah, that won't fly with me >Bu

Victim blaming in general is awful.

And hi again, haven't been here in a while. How are you all doing?
Aw, thank you! QuQ

I'm fine I guess. Had a small b-day "I'm getting old and my reproductive expiry date is coming" breakdown in therapy session yesterday xD But it was a good session.
And other than that, i got sick and I literally can't breathe while laying down, so it's a bit of an insomnia situation :mcargh:

I typed Meme at first xD
Haha, I do that too! XD
B-day was fun. I got a call from mom, then went to a Thai restaurant with Ash, had a delicious stomach-stretching meal, got a "young artist kit" (a color the numbers painting, seems fun and tedious XD I'm excited :mcsquee: ). then went to my grandma's and got acall from dad, was surprised he'd remembered and then as he began talking I realized... he didn't remember XD And he's so talkative I couldn't even say "huh, I thought you called me to wish me happy birthday, but it's funny you decided to call today anyway, I appreciate just hearing you :)" XD He didn't even give me a chance, lol.
Then my sister called and it was a bit awkward for me, but that's fine. I then got to play Civilization with Ash. Oh, and my bestie also called me. It was much nicer and wholesome than my family trying XD

And yes, I do realize you didn't ask, but I wanted to share, lmao XD

What a stupid argument. Sure, it's all their fault that there are pleople who go and scam others. How about blaming the scammers? Jeez. Some people are just innocent, pure, and yes, they can be gullible. Still, zero empathy, that pisses me off.

A lot of the victims for scamming are elderly or young or easily manipulated.
They're a victim through and through and the only one to blame is the scammer Bu

I'll never forget this cult being exposed and this guy actually said "Well, if you're dumb enough to fall for a cult - it's kind of your own fault!"
When he got called out on victim blaming, he backtracked and said that's not what he said.
That's exactly what he said.
Any remaining respect I had for him after the first thing he said completely disappeared when he backtracked Bu

Aww happy late birthday 8D
I'm glad you had a good one :3

Yeah, sure.....

If you had money on you, it's your fault someone stole it from you.
If you were a girl walking alone at night, it's your fault for getting assaulted.
If as a kid you didn't say no, it was your fault for being molested.
If you didn't clean your room you deserved to get the spanking.
If you forgot to lock the door, it's your fault they robbed your house.
If you died choking on food, it's your own fault, you ate it.
It's your fault you had a nightmare because you fell asleep.

Like wtf...

Ugh, cults, let's not talk about them :mcargh: :mcheh:

I always say "Well, if they didn't want food stolen at the store they shouldn't put it out on the shelves \8u/"
That train of thought is just so stupid.
How about someone doesn't commit a crime u8

I suspect the culprit for the insomnia might be the late intake of extra caffeine. I've been drinking it just for the taste (and warming up) after 7 p.m., which sounds silly, but I usually don't feel very moved by coffee during the day, so I didn't think it'd make me stay up until 4 a.m. :mcargh:
Another explanation might be my nose and sinuses' conspiracy to end my existence :mcmeh: I swear to dog, I can breathe fine during the day and when I'm sitting. But once I lay my head down on the pillow I'm suddenly stuffed and suffocating, and can't breathe even when I stack my pillows and end up sleeping completely seated. So I could breathe while sitting before, but turn the light off and my sinuses also turn off. Daquack? :mcmeh:
And third explanation that comes to my head is my mind is getting restless and I don't know how to switch it off. But it could be a combination of all three for all I know.
I didn't drink that late coffee today and I intend to not drink coffee after 6 p.m. for a few next days, so if that doesn't fix things I'll probably go back to my sleeping aid (meaning: more meds! yay! :mcmeh: Also, I forgot to take my meds last night and forgot to take them again this morning, so only now I remembered that I still need to at least take my night dose, missing meds can probably mess with my sleep, idk)

On the house part: nothing really changed. We'll probably live separately until my mom comes back from the UK, but I suspect it can last even longer than that. So who knows.
Spoiler: Click for oversharing text wall
I talked with Ash after a prompt from my therapist. Itold him it would be easier for me to handle the "unknown" if we established roughly how long he'd like to live separately. He still said he doesn't know. So I offered, since my mom is in the UK with my sister for a few months and I'm taking care of the cat, that we could stay separated until my mom comes back to Poland. He said okay.
He did mention living on his own for a while was his pre-pandemic therapist's idea (ahah! so it wasn't my idea after all! - is what I should've said, but didn't XD I probably just encouraged it after he told me, anywho), and then he said she was apparently onto him and that he should make an appointment with her.
And the my silly me went like this:
Me on the outside: Mhm *nods* :mccool:
On the inside: YEEEEEEESSSSSS *hits the golden buzzer* CONFETTI RAIN, HE'S FINALLY GOING TO THERAPY! :mcglee: :mcgrin: :mclove: :mclol:
My anxiety: Stupid, he's probably only mentioning it, and so casually at that, to fool you! :mcmeh: :mcshout:
Me on the inside again: Wth-, how could I even think that? :mcsweat: :mcdead:
And yeah, I'm not expiring... YET XD jk

@Moi: Exactly, let's deal with the root of the cause, not the victims of said cause. It's like saying "it's only a crime if they catch you" or something like that. Like, no dude, even if you get away, it's still a crime...


EDIT: Okay, how the HELL did I just create that text wall in response to a simple question?! :mcomg: I'm terrified. Am I oversharing? Wth? :mcdead:
EDIT2: Ok, I added a spoiler, 'cause that's too much XD
