Demi Lovato would be one. Her struggles with mental health issues and self image issues are things I really relate to.

The 50th anniversary of Doctor Who not including Paul McGann.

Also that one tweet response from JK Rowling about children shitting themselves and magic-ing away at Hogwarts.

I’m still bothered by the fact that Tom Baker was the only one in the special. I wanted the other actors who played the Doctor to be included in some capacity as well, included Paul McGann. And I may be just a tad bit salty because Seven is my favorite Doctor from that era and Sylvester McCoy wasn’t in it.

Not being able to sleep whenever and for however long I want. You'd think I'd be used to it by now but no, I resent having to wake up every day to go to work or perform house chores more now than ever before.

Besides having more and more hair where it shouldn't be and less and less hair where it should be?

It's getting harder and harder to find enjoyable things among the absolute deluge of new shows and films. I think I liked it better when there were only 10 or so shows on TV (we only had three TV channels), so I could easily check them all out and choose the one I liked best.

That I was never able to actually finish a degree due to unrestrained undiagnosed ADHD, thus crippling my ability to get a decent job, and I'll be stuck in retail forever, too poor/too tired to afford going back to school. I don't even know what I'd do if I did. I wanted to be a geologist? wtf do geologists do.

Injustice of all kinds. And the fact that so many Americans just don't care and thing a self-centered worldview is a good thing. The fact that so many people deny the racism, sexism, and classism that are so obvious in our society. The way people can defend horrible actions like police shooting and killing unarmed black people. The way people continue to vote for the party that doesn't even care about them unless they are rich or business owners. Even someone totally self-centered should be able to recognize that Republicans only help the upper parts of society, and if they aren't part of that, they aren't going to get benefits for their vote.

Please nobody take this as indicative of The Ace Experience as a whole, because it very much isn't, it's purely my personal experience, but--

Being ace/aro. I'm so lonely, and I'm so scared of being alone when I'm old. I want to be in love and have sex and be physically intimate with another person. I want that type of companionship and intimacy in my life more than anything. But for some reason my stupid brain just isn't capable of feeling those things for anyone. It never has been and I have no reason to believe it ever will be. And I just can't understand how someone can develop neurologically in a way where they have the appetite for a thing but not the means to satisfy that appetite. Like, I know life isn't fair, but what the fuck?

How my life so far is basically a series of traumatic events exacerbated by Marianas Trench level self-esteem and executive dysfunction. I'm anxious about everything, can't keep my house clean or anything organized, have no close friends, and I already have a full time job so unless I win the lotto I won't and don't have time for the full time job that would be getting the diagnoses, therapy, and meds I'd need to do more than tread water.

Passing in boy mode just for professional acceptance and to minimize harassment.

How much social media design is now about collecting marketing data by promoting some of the unhealthiest discourse possible.

So today at the store I spotted Star Wars themed shampoo. It was called 'Wookiee Waves' and naturally featured Chewie and his luxurious hair blowing in the wind.

My cat, who usually is not a lap cat and only likes a certain amount of pets/brushing before she jumps down to play, is shedding. And she's suddenly desperate for brushing at all hours, all the time. She let me brush her for 20 minutes this morning, and then wanted another round an hour later. And she is pushing herself harder into the brush, purring the whole time.

I feel bad for her being itchy from shedding, but honestly it is adorable and slightly amusing how desperate she is. My mom was sleeping out on a recliner last night, and she says the cat jumped up to get brushed 4 times through the night. And this afternoon she was on the porch, and then she wanted in, but she only wanted in for a brushing and then wanted out again.
