Vent Thread

[philstar22]

For all your venting needs. Waiting for collapse to post mine.

Re: Vent Thread

[philstar22]

Okay, this one doesn't need to collapse. Not naming names just in case. But fuck you, dude. I hope you die in a fire. I think I hate you more than Sessions right now. I really and truly hope you suffer.

Okay, so, this ugh used to be an attorney. Used to being the operative word. He was disbarred for filing frivolous asylum claims. He told a whole lot of immigrants who were not in proceedings at all that they should apply for affirmative asylum. He charged exorbitant amounts. And the documents he filed were full of inconsistencies, lies, contradictions, and pure idiocy.

So these clients we have. They were tricked by this guy. They weren't in proceedings. They'd done nothing to be noticed by the government. Then this guy files affirmative asylum. It is, of course denied, and now they are in removal proceedings. And they aren't eligible for any relief (almost certainly). We took the case on to try to help. But we can't think of anything. It is killing me. I spent all day trying to come up with something. But these guys are going to be deported. And there is a good chance they'll be killed. The stuff they suffered just wasn't because of any of the reasons that would make them eligible for asylum.

Also, my body has decided it wants one last hurrah before my hysterectomy. Besides the agonizing pain, I'm bleeding more heavily than I have in years. And I can't take any painkillers.

That's so scary and must be heart-breaking. Glad you're at least doing whatever you can to fight for them.

I'm not being petty. You crossed a line and I don't trust you anymore. I can't relax around you. I need time and I'm too angry and hurt right now to know what to do about this.

Re: Vent Thread

[philstar22]

Sorry you are dealing with that. It sucks when you can't trust someone you used to trust and care about.

Gah somehow I deleted my whole rant without posting the first time nrgh. Anyway I wanted to go to one of the “emergency Mueller protection” protests tonight, but I have the energy of a wet noodle. Also I’m pissed that they’re necessary. We got less than a full day to celebrate flipping the House before the petulant pestilential orange pustule made everything about him again.

Re: Vent Thread

[philstar22]

I want to go too. Physically not capable. And mentally not either. I just can't right now. I'm terrified, though.

My coworker has been out sick all week, and although she claimed when I talked to her this evening that she'll be back tomorrow, I'm halfway expecting to hear when I get there tomorrow morning that she's not coming in again and I've got to call her clients and cancel their meetings. She's "sick" all the time, and she always does this. I'll say "hey, let me go ahead and cancel your meetings for tomorrow" because I feel like it's good to give people advance notice, she SWEARS she'll be back the next day, but then I find out that she's "still too sick" and I've gotta cancel them at the last minute, which I hate doing because they're frequently unhappy about being canceled at the last minute (which I totally understand) and take it out on me. If I knew in advance, I could give them more notice and hopefully avoid them being pissed at me, but I can't cancel the day before in the rare case she DOES come back when she says she's going to, and if she came in to find out all her clients were canceled, then SHE'D be pissed at me and I'd probably get in trouble.

Ugh.

Also, I'm annoyed by some really dumb fandom things at the moment but I'm not gonna go there.

Re: Vent Thread

[philstar22]

Oh man, that sounds like a very annoying, unreliable coworker. I'm sorry.

Re: Vent Thread

[syncing_feeling]

Ugh, I've had colleagues like that. It sucks. Hugs for you. I used to have one who would come in, let the previous shift leave, then decide an hour into our shift that she wasn't well enough and disappear. Hopefully your boss will notice her unreliability and do something about it.

Re: Vent Thread

The fucking WAY TOO MUCH Prednisone that the doc gave me for my horrible, stupid poison ivy (which i didn't take all of because it was making me so sick), fucked me over and now i have a FUCKING UTI.

First one in thirty years, probably second one i've ever fucking had. I got antibiotics today. But it fucking HURTS. ARGH.

Re: Vent Thread

[philstar22]

Ugh, Prednisone. Both times I've had to take it I became suicidal. I'm so sorry. Hope you feel better soon.

For decades, establishment Dems in the states I've lived in have practiced a strategy of rolling over and playing dead while machine Republicans ran uncontested, or coasted to 10, 15, and 20-point margins. And now they're whining that the guys who won the primaries, ran the race, scrapped for every vote, and are in recount/runnoff range are too progressive.

CPS doesn't care, not that I expected them to. I'm so sick of hearing this dumb bitch and her f-bombs and her dumb trailer trash drawl, screaming expletives at little kids and threatening bodily harm and/or hitting them. I guess my only hope is to submit a noise complaint and get her kicked out of this place, but that would mean the kids disappear with her too. Which is the exact opposite of what I wanted to happen.

Re: Vent Thread

[(Anonymous)]

CPS never cares. Unless they're living in a literal hoarder's junkpile with bugs running all over them and there's no food in the fridge, they'll be as passive as humanly possible about everything.

Re: Vent Thread

[(Anonymous)]

Whenever these threads come up and an anon posts something really unspecific, I get very anxious that it's about me. I know that a few people I know read F!S, but the last time I talked to any of them was a lifetime ago, so it's unlikely. But my anxiety insists it's all about me. (This itself is a vent, not an attempt to tell anyone else how to vent.)

The boy I am doing an Angel Tree for likes the color pink but all the pink stuff is clearly geared towards girls. I want to get him something pink but not something that will get him teased about. :(

Re: Vent Thread

[philstar22]

Aw. I wonder if Amazon might have something. That sucks. I hate gendered colors. Like, a color is a color.

I'm still bummed about my friend ripping apart my new chapter yesterday and claiming she didn't mean to come across negative. WTF. And I'm supposed to applaud her honesty? I'm not trying to get published. It's a FREAKING FANFICTION. I don't even ask for concrit. I don't want it. What does she want me to do? Say "yes, you're right, every choice I made in this chapter is stupid/wrong/OOC/whatevs"?

And I hate that I can't let it go. I don't even want to look at my story now :(

I don’t care that you “don’t exactly support Trump,” if you’re still parroting the anti-Hillary/anti-democrat talking pointsnthat you know are agitprop then you’re a Trumper and I don’t want to interact with you.

Re: Vent Thread

I had a really shitty day at work, Instagram isn't letting me upload anything, and I can't watch Supernatural because there's a breaking news story going on.

CW: Animal death

[(Anonymous)]

There was a garage fire in my old house last night, where my grandfather lives. He and his girlfriend got out fine.

My cat, who really was more Grandpa's cat, died from smoke inhalation under Papa's bed.

The tried to look for him, they did. But they couldn't find him. I'm devastated, and I know Grandpa is worse. I hate it. Some part of me can't forgive him--he smoked in that garage, and there were gas cans in it. But I know he's also not going to be able to forgive himself, either.

Right now my feelings are irrational. I'm looking at kittens tomorrow--not a replacement but a successor, because that's kind of how it works in my family. It's a silly belief, but our pets tend to lead us to successors and we got the call that a neighbor's looking to give her cat's kittens to loving homes today not too long after finding out about the cat back with Grandpa.

I'm a mess.

The biggest Berniebro I know, who never met a bs anti-Clinton conspiracy theory he didn’t swallow whole hog or an “independent” small website that he didn’t swallow whole hog just posted this (“https://www.gocomics.com/pearlsbeforeswine/2018/11/04”) on his Facebook feed. I honestly can’t believe it

Re: Vent Thread

I wish you'd stop pretending you're still into our shared fandom. We know you well enough to know that you've hopped ship in a major way, and it's honestly more hurtful that you aren't being honest with us about it. I really hope our friendship is stronger than this. It is on our end.

And that girl is trouble. You know she is. We know she is. Don't fall down that rabbit hole just because she's also into your new ship.
