But in the end, it's only a passing thing, this shadow. Even darkness must pass. A new day will come. And when the sun shines it will shine out the clearer.

I really wish my father hadn’t passed away before doing some actual gathering

Infection is getting worse despite antibiotics. I need to get this tooth looked at

@Sleep_Is_For_Chumps @wolfwoman I would consider it preventative care, which should be equally important. Fixing my teeth has gotta be cheaper than fixing my teeth AND the problems caused by not treating them

@Sleep_Is_For_Chumps @wolfwoman healthcare yes, dental unfortunately not

@Sleep_Is_For_Chumps @wolfwoman I’ve spoken to both a doctor and a dentist to try and find the best resources, gonna make a call to a place that might be cheaper tomorrow, but when you have no money cheaper only goes so far

@Sleep_Is_For_Chumps @wolfwoman Canadian :/

@MookyTroubadour they’re wonderful people, it was just bizarre considering I’d haven been an adult within a month of meeting them and still had one living parent

@Sleep_Is_For_Chumps I mean, it was a bit of a shock, and ultimately the result of a miscommunication (she was Japanese, and thought I’d been orphaned), but they were absolutely wonderful people that I spent a lot of time with. They made an incredible effort to make me feel welcome in their home, and I still get Christmas cards from them every year

Have I ever told you guys that total strangers wanted to adopt me after my dad passed away ?

@wolfwoman thank you

@wolfwoman life is chaos, always has been for me; I’m afraid I’m used to it by now. But I’ll keep you posted, it’s good to know someone cares :)

@wolfwoman thanks for caring :)

@wolfwoman I managed to get some antibiotics a few days ago to help with the infection, but I still haven’t been able to see a dentist. I kinda lost my job this morning so prospects of doing that anytime soon are slim, but I’m gonna make a call tomorrow, I had someone suggest a place locally that might be slightly cheaper (I have no savings at all so cheaper is only slightly better but whatever)

How do people make friends as adults without joining a cult

@Silabus thanks; I appreciate it

@Silabus I don’t know where to begin. I lost my job this morning. My wife almost left a month ago because I couldn’t find one at that point. I have a wicked tooth infection so I’m in constant pain. I could go on but no one wants to hear me complain, so I’ll leave it at that.

I feel so lost

@mcfate the way the Japanese language uses honourifics could serve as an example of what I’m looking for
