I know something has affected me deeply when I’ve made a separate note for it circa March 2024 lmao.

Exactly how to describe it. Made me feel sick a bit.

YES YES YES

Rawr.

This is so exactly it. Too many GPs, too much toxic discourse, too many self-important fucks on social media.

This isn’t even remotely sustainable long-term.

Everyone is burnt out mid-season as it is with this kind of calendar.

I’m on my way. But I’ve had a really shitty/day week and have indulged in some alone time for personal sanity.

It’s exciting it’s a three-way championship fight, but McLaren has annoyed me endlessly lmao. I will be happiest if Oscar wins. I will roll my eyes to the back of my head permanently if Lando does. I will be fine with Max, only because that’s an indictment on McLaren’s season-long incompetence.

(To be fair, only one serial killer. But it was still kinda weird!)

Absolutely. It’s the element of surprise that makes them terrifying. I’m not scared of anything if it’s controlled and contained. I mean, I’ve talked to serial killers on recesses before and not been afraid as I know I’m safe. 😅

I seriously wish you could out-logic a phobia as I would’ve stopped being afraid of spiders in 1994 lmao.

*the planet lollll

(I need to go to bed. I have another full day of transcribing tomorrow. 😭)

I am actually not scared of any spiders in a cage, no matter how big, as they are controlled and contained. I won’t randomly discover them in my bedsheet or shower drain in my most vulnerable moments. 😂

No, there isn’t. Not when it comes to spiders. Hang that hat UP. 😂

Ugh. No amount of logic can override a phobia. I really respect people are not afraid of spiders and appreciate them. I do not hate spiders. I simply do not want them in my space, like, ever. I don’t care if they kill bugs as bugs do not scare me like them. Phobias are not a force of will.

Every guy I’ve ever dated thinks they can “fix me” by exposing me more to spiders. It doesn’t work. Sometimes people are just irrationally freaked out by shit. They have too many legs, move too quickly, and evoke my fight or flight response I can’t control. It’s not made up hysteria. 😭😭

It’s not a force of will ffs. You are just not phobic of them and are a MASSIVE BRAT ABOUT IT. 😘

We will never agree on this, I am legitimately afraid of them in a real way. 😭 I wish I was capable of thinking of them this way, but I cannot. 😭

EXACTLY. The other bugs aren’t terrifying, which is why we want the terrifying ones NOT LET LOOSE IN THE BASEMENT. 😭

I would MURDER YOU if I found out this was your tactic. Complete BETRAYAL OF OUR TRUST. 😭😭
