My damned flu is finally subsiding, so to celebrate I went out to the bookstore and got some more manga. =u= Though now I have to rearrange my bookshelves again to keep everything alphabetical, and to make room. o3o;;; I need another bookshelf!!!

I need to tidy up my room for Octoberween anyways, so I’ll probs do that this evening when I have more energy. =u=

For now, I’m rewatching Chuggaaconroy’s LP of Pokemon Emerald. I forgot how much I love this guy, except for the occasional tasteless joke. :D

I think the 3DS may be my favorite Nintendo console to date. I’ve yet to purchase a mediocre game for it; the controls are tight, the XL improved the 3D technology, and some of my favorite titles are for this console (Animal Crossing, Professor Layton, Pokemon).

I think this is beating the GameCube as my new favorite console.

Fuzzy got me a new Pokemon wallet at Sakura con and I’m really happy. ;u;

I wish I had more friends in real life, especially introvert anime nerd friends. My ideal weekend is having a friend over and just sitting in my room in silence, reading manga on my bed then spending all night watching anime and fangasming over everything, or just playing Pokemon while they play some other single person game next to me.

Basically, I want someone to just exist in the room with me and do what I’m doing while we occasionally exchange words.

Sometimes I forget my room isn’t what the average teenager’s room looks like. And then I get really really confused. That’s about when the existential crisis sets in.

Random Factoid: Lately I’ve been having full body twitches that are just like a jolt of harmless electricity through me and my whole body spasms slightly. Is this normal? I don’t think it’s a side effect of the meds since I’ve been taking those for over a year now and suddenly twitching. Huh.

I’m so bored tonight without the fuzzy by my side. At least I’ll see her tomorrow at the Easter festivities. I haven’t gotten to bother her in person for like… A month, at least.

People who complain about have to trigger warning their posts make me really mad, honestly. And they usually give some ridiculous argument like,

“Well you can’t trigger warning real life so stop being sensitive and get used to it.”

But that’s just silly.
Yes you can. I do it every day just to keep me healthy and safe.

I wear earplugs at robotics competitions and other loud, crowded places because that level of loudness triggers my migraines and anxiety.

I avoid certain movies, shows, and books because I know they will set off my anxiety or PTSD.

I cut certain people out of my life if I know they say harmful things or make jokes at the expense of others, or they are associated with someone that caused me to have PTSD in the first place.

I make small adjustments all around my life because triggers are a legitimate concern to my safety. Being exposed to my triggers can cause me migraines, panic attacks, anxiety, or even trigger my syncope, as well as other unsavory side effects.

So when I ask you to tag your triggers, I’m not doing it to have you help me not see something that is mildly uncomfortable to me, I’m doing it because I expect you to take three seconds to help me stay safe in a place that’s much harder to avoid my triggers than in “real life”.

Getting real sick of my friends complaining about how fat they are. Look, say what you want, but your fatter friend still struggling with body acceptance doesn’t need to hear about how you are 175 lb. and feel so obese now because you ate a bowl of macaroni.
