#i need to buy new clothes though

[icewindandboringhorror]

... why he sit like this

#in this position his face is extremely 'cartoon cat' shaped.. like the perfectly round cheeks and little #rounded bump of a snout.. big round eyes. etc. stretched over the arm of a chair like a weirdo #cats #It's still Hot Evil Summer time and I have so much to do so am just aimlessly hopping between various projects but not actually #getting anything done. as usual. Also so so so so tired. I almost fell asleep in the middle of the floor like 3 times today lol #Trying to finish some costume photos and also another poll adventure thing. plus I do really want to do a sculpture sometime #I haven't finished one in a while. Hopefully my tiredness is nothing bad. #Maybe I'm anemic again so that's making me tired. Or maybe it's just a Listless phase. not that I'm ever really THAT productive considering #all of the health problems and etc. always holding me back. but still. I'm not usually 'sleep or just stare at a wall literally all day' ty #e unproductive.. at least not for multiple days in a row so. hmm... Sometimes especially in the summer though I will have periods of time #that are listless like that. I am under low level phyiscal stress for months at a time due to summer heat so I guess it makes sense #that would eventually take a toll. I just have SO MANY THINGS I WANT TO DO!!!!! AAUUGhhh #I also came up with a new idea for a game that is so so cool and I wish I could make it but I have to finish the other one first lol #which I will NEVER do. if I spend all day just sleepy unfocused barely able to do anything #I also really need to sell some clothes and sculptures because I'll probably have to buy a new computer soon so I need money. (plus still #recovering the costs of having to euthanize my other cat.. wehh) There's nothing clearly wrong with it right now but it's getting gradually #slower and there's more weird glitches happening randomly and idk.. just weird things that make me think 'hmm... bad.. possibly.' #ANYWAY... I just have so much to do that I both REALLY want or need to do - so it's perpetually frustrating that I just can't for whatever #reason like. Time is always mving forward. every day I waste is a wasted day. The year is already almost half over. I havent finished #any of the projects I wanted to .. and there's only more and more things to do each day. It's overwhelming and stinky #and thats not even considering having to do all of my tasks also with the background noise of economic inequality. everything increasingly #going into an even scarier political direction. active climate change crisis. pandemic that still exists and is insane to act otherwise. et #etc. HOW am I supposed to solo make two whole games . write 3 book series. finish sculptures. do costumes. make outfits. game videos. make #stable network of social connections. do my little side crafts. take care of myself and cats. pay rent. manage health issues. keep a routin #.try to make some sort of money. go to doctors appointments. handle regular maintenance like cleaning and cooking and self care #and buying new plates when old ones break or etc. make sure to do other things like backup my computer data regularly. do shopping lists. #take care of plants. pursue like 6 different academic interests. do the other side side projects I have for fun (like music or carving avoc #ado pits). eat in a healthy way thats okay for my Special Health Issue diet. exercise so i don't die early. etc. etc. etc. AND all while it #82F in my apartment all the time and I have tiny income and also need to move to another country/climate somehow??? lol...... #ANYWAY.. ..very frustrated today over my chronic Tired Sleepy.. time for Cat Photos - which cure all of life's ailments lol

I may be grasping at straws here, but I like to think Collei's outfit was made by the same tailor who made Kaveh's. There's several similarities between them!

#and it's cute to think that after seeing this kid in bandages and rags that cyno brought from mondstadt #kaveh's first course of action was to get her nicer clothes #all four of them care so much about collei all in their own way and it's very precious to me #genshin #genshin impact #kaveh #collei #most likely collei's outfit is a little cheaper #she's still growing after all she'll need a new set of clothes after a while #maybe she hopes to be able to buy her own eventually with her earnings as a forest ranger #she's that type of girl she'd like it best if she earned it through her own efforts #though i imagine hers would end up being inspired more by felines rather than by birds like kaveh's is #and with a bit of an influence taken from amber's style #it'd look nice i'm sure #ray's records

my birthday week is like a fight for my fucking life.

#like i dont like my birthday bc i dont like attention and also bc the fact i am still alive when i never planned to be is so heavy #which makes it feel like all of a sudden i have a timer and i need to kiilllmyself #but mostly. The biggest issue is i think of my exbest friend bc it was our week always even if they treated me horrible #and i would just go along with whatever they wanted even if i hated it and i just think about them think about them think about them #and i dont want them in my life but i will talk myself into missing them #and feel guilty like its my fault like i deserved everything they did to me like i should never be allowed to move past it #and then i get so embarassed over how i let them rule my life and ruin so much for me and made me break away from people i care about #but then its like im so lonely at least they were always there even if they hated me #even if they wanted me to be so miserable even if they just wanted to know they would always have someone to push around #And i still have trouble when it comes to food im still scared of opening up to people im still scared of my friends of buying new clothes #somehow everything they said to and about me was true even though none of it is and it hurt me and ruined so much #but i must have deserved it. they were supposed to know me best. and i never have known myself #so everything they had said about me has been true for so long. #every time i have the thought that i miss them i think i need to crash my car #every year it gets better every week it is easier but its been so bad recently its been so bad i feel like pieces of me are falling apart #i dont want to manifest this year it being bad bc its just starting to get easier after my total depressive state but god #im looking at are they made for me years ago and i want to rip it apart but i cant every time i try i almost throw up. #i think im going to throw up right now. #deeply pathetic. #news with isaac

i’ve been avoiding buying clothes for a long time bc Ugh but i’m doing it today bc i need some new basic things before going on this fancy cruise with my parents. dropped $300 in the first store. why is everything in the world so expensive!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

#telling myself this is fine bc i haven’t bought myself new shit in years #and none of my jeans fit right anymore #so those are necessities #i still need to go to the shoe store bc my sketchers are like ten years old #and i got them at bealls #so i need nice clean sneakers and maybe some nice flats #idk how my parents will feel about me wearing my docs on the cruise even though i think they’re nice #fuck it! it’ll be cold so boots are normal and acceptable right #this suuuuuuuucks this suucks so bad #also i don’t consider myself to be that fat #like i definitely am a little bit but im really not that big i think im kind of average maybe a little above #but im consistently the largest size at these stores #how does anyone bigger than me buy clothes #like this is so ridiculous #im a 16/18/XL in women’s an L/XL in men’s #like this is a normal average size to be; and yet they only stock up to a 16 usually. i found one pair of pants in a 20 #unbelievable shit happening at the gap

heads up, I have finally decided to open commissions! because I work full-time right now they will be very simple bust/waist-up backgroundless illustrations, but if you for example want an oc, a dnd character or an icon drawn by me, this is your chance! I’ll post about it properly this weekend with more details🌷

#i need some extra cash to buy some new clothes secondhand!! #for the past year i've been updating my wardrobe and i think i've finally found my niche and colours that suit me #i've had bad luck selling my own old clothes though haha #nor's rambles

Good job being such a good girl!!

But also... what if you were just a little bad? 😈

(This is in regards to buying new rocks, but also just in general)

....I did just get my tax refund.... I could maybe be a little bad

#bitts answers #i also need to go clothes shopping and buy some new work shoes and i still wanna put as much as a i can into savings though... #ill consider it

[ctl-yuejie]

very unrelated but i found a top that reminded me of what lookjun was wearing as chuam on ofts and i am very much obsessed with it now...(ignore the pyjama pants). still trying to assemble yuna's looks from semantic error. sigh.

#ctlyuejie writes #the store i found this in has too many damn things i want to buy #trying to pace myself though .... was doing pretty good with not buying any new clothes this year #not counting the suit because that one i needed

#don't have running water right now #it's not frozen #might need a new pump #don't know when it will be resolved #adhd brain is doing the panic freeze and struggling to plan or do anything #okay I do have short term contingency plan but need to go out and buy some water and paper towels #but if it goes on too long I'm gonna hit a wall on laundry #I hate having to think though every drop of water use in this particular way #it's very much the adhd not liking the added logistics task load #or the extra imposed limits of what it's okay to do #anyway i hope this doesnt last too long #because I can't take other people's laundry detergent residue on my clothes #and I have a doctor's appointment the 21st

[crowley1990]

why have I spent €500 on clothes this week 😐

although half of that was on one pair of boots because prices are crazy these days

#Starting a new job made me insane and I’m like oh I gotta buy new clothes #I do need to buy new boots though. After 14 years it is time to say my doc martens are fucked.

[ace-and-ranty]

I. Badly need new clothes.

#a combination of pandemic + me being super stingy about buying new clothes + entering my thirties + gaining weight #means all my clothes are old and ill-fitting. #this is early 20s Laura's Wardrobe. #IT DOES NOT DO ANYMORE. #We need a wardrobe for early 30s Laura!!! #who is fat and has (some) money to buy clothes!!! #I am saving money though #and soon this will be rectified. #time to plan a shopping trip #(SHIVERS) god I hate buying clothes. #nothing undoes the work of body positivity more than goddamn changing rooms. #but I will brave the mortifying ordeal of trying on clothes #for the reward of owning pretty clothes.

The Rolling Stones at No. 9 Carnaby Street (2023)

#I did go in #did not end up buying anything #99% of the t-shirts are unisex or men’s #which I don’t necessarily mind (even though it’s guaranteed to be too big even in xs) if the designs are good #but none of them really were #and the one women’s design (a tank) was a pink tongue covered in flowers #they really need a better merch design team #who recognizes a possibility for women’s clothes beyond tired stereotypes #because you can get better looking and more interesting stones stuff off of Etsy #I just ended up buying myself a new pair of sandals from Timberland and then browsing the vintage shops in shoredtich instead #the rolling stones

[the-busy-ghost]

Not me genuinely considering trying to wrangle tickets for rugby internationals because at least then I would have an excuse to wear my new skirt

#Look I love clothes but I don't buy them often because shopping in this hellish age of global capitalism is a nightmare #And honestly I don't usually need them but having been inside for most of the last three years I only really own dungarees now #And both because I haven't had other new clothes for a long time and because I'm getting older and trying to raise my clothing game a bit #I've been trying to buy a few comfortable but also loosely smart things so that I don't feel like I'm ten years old all the time #So bit by bit I'm trying to get a few things that I can wear but it's a piecemeal process and women's clothing is a minefield #So the only shirt I own that *might* be able to be worn with my skirt happens to be my Scotland top #(1970s vintage style of course not like a modern rugby top) #This is getting ridiculous but I refuse to let a skirt languish in a cupboard #And bizarrely rugby tickets sometimes cost less than a good white shirt #What a world we live in #Thing is it was hammered into us at school and at home that it was bad manners to wear football tops in public/official spaces #Unless actively attending a match or sporting event #And even though nobody really meant that to extend to rugby tops it sort of stuck in my head and I'm not sure that I'd be comfortable #Wandering around in a Scotland top unless it was either a laundry day or there was an international match on #Also I end up looking vaguely 1980s which was not really the vibe I was going for but oh well

[hauntingblue]

Sometimes I go hm... I don't know what to wear and my clothes feel very out of date... and then I remember I don't buy clothes lmao

#like the other day this girl told me she went shopping for clothes #and i short circuited because i dont remember the last time i went somewhere and bought clothes on prupose #like multiple items and just because i need them #and ive gained weight so some clothes dont fit #like i have money now i can go shopping but i dont like buying things that arent on sale.... because if they are going to be on sale #then they arent worth the price.... #but i need new clothes you know #and also consumerism and all that #and i havent bought much this year on sales so... #also i need to clean my dresser but i have 0 time #im such a mess and im sooooo out of it #it as in the loop as in everything #i dont have time for anything man im just ahdjajskajska #all the time if you jnow what i mean #also im sick #and tired even though iveslept 8 hours four days in a row which is unheard of for me actually and iam still tired and i coukd use a nap #but i have so much uni stuff for next week aaaaaaaaaaaaah #the horrors are never ending i get it i know #rant #sorry #talking tag

I’m going to be 21 next month, and I’ve lived on my own since 18.

And yet I’m still like that 12 year old girl who knew nothing about how to survive. Mad that innit?

#like I still don’t fully understand life #I’ve never been a person who goes out and buys clothes or things for myself #because I wasn’t raised with that ‘luxury’ #and now #even though I sometimes have that little to spare for a new pair of jeans or that game I really want #I don’t get them #because those are luxuries to me #not necessary for my life #I barely wrap my head around rent and bills and food shopping #I don’t feel like an adult #I feel like I still need someone telling me how these things work #but any time I ask all I get is #‘you should know this already’ ‘you’ve lived by yourself long enough #‘you’ll figure it out’ #and it’s exhausting #why can’t I live and be happy? #if I choose my happiness then I’m not going to survive #if I chose my survival (which in most cases I do) then I’m forfeiting my happiness #there is no balance #lmao ignore this I’m rambling bla bla bla #comment how your day was aye?

[exopelagic]

actually tiny thing this time that I would just like to complain about so I can go to bed :/

#I’ve lost a t shirt :/ #I’m at home rn and going back to uni tomorrow morning and bc I knew it’d be hard to keep track of clothes (I left some behind last time) #I made a list of everything I brought. and I have it! except for this one specific t shirt #it’s not special!! it just fits nice and I would like it back especially for summer #but it has gone missing and it’s not in any of the places I’ve looked #and for. ~3 hours? mild anxiety abt that bc I get rlly weird abt losing things #there’s a reason I made a list and why I don’t let my siblings borrow my shit long term #anyway it not being anywhere means it’s with one of my siblings clothes except they’re both stubborn fucking bastards and either #1. insane levels of teenage boy thinking he’s better than everyone 2. deciding she fucking hates me and has been treating me like dirt #at best. like just pointedly not looking at me and sneering when she does and that’s when she’s being NICE #anyway point is neither of them! obviously! are going to check even though that is literally the one place left where it could be #and fucking fine! whatever!! it’s a t shirt!! but why the fuck can you not do something so incredibly small #and it does not help that my mum (who has been doing the laundry the past few days) got rlly defensive and snappy abt it #it calmed down and she helped me look but just. ughshdsgjdhdh #I hate losing things so much I can’t deal with it but. whatever I can buy more t shirts I needed to anyway this just WAS one of the new ones #idk where to leave this I’m just >:/ #really frustrating situation and I can acknowledge that and let it sit until it passes #or smth. trying to figure out how to not be telling myself it’s fine all the time #anyway. sleep now #luke.txt
