How Was Your Day Thread V5

My depression has been lifting lately, and naturally this time. While I'm surprised this is happening without medication, I can't complain!

I feel so angry. A guy I wanted to genuinely hang out with has not checked his messages for so long and tells me today that he has someone now. When I wanted to hang out as friends... It honestly shows how he felt about a friendship with me. Especially because it takes two to communicate and it failed on his part. I'm not the greatest at communicating but dang.

Spoiler

I'm sorry to hear that. I've experienced similar recently. A friend of mine moved out of town. We were talking a bit and planned to play some games together online and some other things. I hadn't heard from her in a week, then a few days ago she posted a picture of herself with a guy I've never seen before on social media and she still hasn't responded to any of my texts or messages or has tried to contact me in anyway since. It's darn frustrating. She's been my closest friend, but I kind of feel like I've been tossed aside and forgotten about.

Blergh. I just realized that with the newest change on this course, I'm going to miss a good part of whatever Halloween event magi will have.
Great. How awesome. Like it would've hurt these people to hold the courses in the morning and not in the afternoon/evening.

The only good thing in these three weeks of hell is that I have the chance to go to MS and watch Venom.

I just doubt anyone will donate, that's all. I don't have a lot of followers on twitter/instagram. My friends are about as broke as I am, not to mention, I don't think they believe in me as a writer, or anything really. I barely have any likes on my FB page, so no one's going to see it there either.

This is my problem. I've needed a few bucks every once in a while, and people are all, "GoFundMe!!!!"

My family and people I know are poor. No one would donate.

I've never had it suggested for needed money for regular stuff. In fact, I think one author actually started one for everyday stuff so she could devote more time to writing, and her fan base tore her apart for it. They essentially said that she should have a job to pay for all of that, and just write on the side. I don't think the majority of people realize how hard it can be to work full-time, or even part-time, and still have the energy/motivation to do any sort of art.

Super late, don't have internet at home because ISP won't take card payments over the phone and landlord has been out on fires for weeks.

It wasn't for regular stuff. Emergency vet bills mainly (like neighbor's dogs trying to rip my cat in half). But people think if you don't have thousands of dollars stashed away for vet bills, you don't deserve to own pets.

I agree with what everyone else has said about VoU so far.

Spoiler

I saw old posts on the forums there, well not OLD but... from earlier in this year, where the Matriarch admitted that she wished people would leave the site, so she could 'scrap it and rebuild it from the ground up.' So ever since, it seems like she's stopped caring about the site as much as she could. It definitely has a her way or the highway feel to it. I've lost count of how many help/bug topics are on the forums, that she hasn't so much as acknowledged. It's a shame, really, the site has so much potential to be awesome... but her thing is that she wants it to be so drastically different from other adoptable/collectible sites, and sometimes that's not always a good thing.

I don't know how much longer I'll be willing to stay on that site... it's getting frustrating and games like that should be the opposite: relaxing.

Bruh, she doesn't even need to wait for ppl to leave to 'scrap it' so idk what she's on about. She sure didn't wait when it came to the sister sites. She killed all those while they were active(and despite saying that at least one would come back, I don't think it ever did). I don't know why she keeps creating sites, she clearly has no heckin idea how to run'em properly.

It's a shame, really. The events on VoU were genuinely creative, but if you so much as suggest that anything was less than perfectly fun and balanced, you can go fuck yourself.

Also, iirc, the sister sites had their plugs pulled because they just weren't worth the time or server money, revenue-wise. Who wants to bet that VoU is no longer making her as much money as she'd like these days, and that's why she wants to scrap it?

it might just be morbid curiosity but what is VoU?

Valley of Unicorns, IIRC.. another pixel collecting game. It started out fun and different, but eventually became tedious and frustrating.

OHHH i know that game. i think pet simmer julie did a video on it.

anyways, the admin sounds like a real piece of work.

Only site that went down (well..2 actually) that I was invested in was CelestialVale and CV`s...sister site...or reboot...or whatever (cant remember what it was called). But it sounds like VoU has a lot incommon with CV. And the sister-site.

With is: bad administration.

CV and VoU are sister sites, with a 3rd sister site that's also dead. So yep, bad administration lol

I'm starting to be real sad about only being able to work closing shifts on weekdays... The store only closes at 9, and we stay until 9:30 at the earliest, but all my homework just makes it so much worse. At least I've stopped procrastinating on my math

I feel vastly alone. My heart aches and I want friends and people to like and just genuine people. I put work into the friendships I have, I feel like I make it as worthwhile as I can. But it takes two people to be friends and I just feel like a failure. My "supposed" bestfriend is just turning out to be not even an acquaintance... I used to be so social and loved to be social but now that people don't put their time and effort into the friendship with me I can't mantain the load if I know nothing will come of it. But honestly what can I do?

Life turns out though, I won't lose my hope. I've been tending to my class and garden at times. And keeping myself on music so I distract myself of the past and present.

sometimes i literally have to force myself to not interact with people because i'm just so fucking jaded all i can picture is any possible way they could be preparing to treat me badly and how the fuck do i talk to people without being rude and accusative when i'm so fucking paranoid
