should I go out tomorrow and meet up with my friend, or should I stay in?
cause she's apparently treating me to a meal.
I don't have the energy to go out.
I don't get it. how is it so fucking easy for my friends to go out but its so exhausting for me?

my friends have invited me to theirs for a july 4th bbq…but i’d have to go into DC on the worst possible tourist day of the year, and they live on the opposite side of the city to me so it’ll take 30+ min to drive there, or 1.5 hours to metro, or an uber at minimum $25 (not including whatever surge pricing will be going on tonight) and i just…am having a hard time working up the motivation to do that.
but i KNOW i’d have fun and it is probably better for me to have social interaction rather than being lazy at home all day.
ughhhhhhh

☆Song of the day/ 21.09.2023☆
I want to give you myself but what if that is not enough? I often think that you deserve better and more. What if you think im enough and I just think too much? I wish I could just enjoy today.

Truly something how comforting the LOTR movies continue to be after 20 years and eighty million watches.

I wake up and think "ugh its another day more school. More socialising"
I'm so exhausted and tired. I'm struggling to get out of bed. I just want to sleep and stay home.
my mum feels the same. she just wants to stay in bed and go back to sleep and not go to work. (My mum works Mondays to Fridays)

thoughts on "tradwives" as a 19th-century social historian
It's great until it's not.
It's great until he develops an addiction and starts spending all the money on it.
It's great until you realize he's abusive and hid it long enough to get you totally in his power (happened to my great-great-aunt Irene).
It's great until he gets injured and can't work anymore.
It's great until he dies and your options are "learn a marketable skill fast" or "marry the first eligible man you can find."
It's great until he wants child #7 and your body just can't take another pregnancy, but you can't leave or risk desertion because he's your meal ticket.
It's great until he tries to make you run a brothel as a get-rich-quick scheme and deserts you when you refuse, leaving your sisters to desperately fundraise so your house doesn't get foreclosed on (happened to my great-great-aunt Mamie).
It's great until you want to leave but you can't. It's great until you want to do something else with your life but you can't. It's great. Until. It's. Not.
I won't lie to you and say nobody was ever happy that way. Plenty of women have been, and part of feminism is acknowledging that women have the right to choose that sort of life if they want to.
But flinging yourself into it wholeheartedly with no sort of safety net whatsoever, especially in a period where it's EXTREMELY easy for him to leave you- as it should be; no-fault divorce saves lives -is naive at best and dangerous at worst.
Have your own means of support. Keep your own bank account; we fought hard enough to be allowed them. Gods willing, you never need that safety net, but too many women have suffered because they needed it and it wasn't there.
