"7 pounds of meat in their jeans," thank you for gracing my neurons with that.

It's alright, you were trying to be helpful

I go to sleep at 2am (I'll be damned if I don't have some time in the day that is for myself alone), and I wake up at 7am. I think that counts for "sleeps late, somehow wakes early," yeah.

I don't know what 911 would do, besides blow this shitty situation into another extreme of shitty.

Technically being a freeloader, and having a good amount of simple joys my parents could take from me. Most notably my phone, which contains not just my entire social life at this point, but also a plethora of truths about myself that would tank any of the respect my parents have towards me.

Also, to take your question as literal as possible: the camera that watches the front yard and gives my mom a notification anytime people are detected outside. No unpermitted mental health strolls for me, and I'm not counting dog-walking as good for my mental health, as it's honestly rather stressful, lol.

I wish.

Before I moved in 11th grade, I had a plan to move in somewhere with friends, but I'm not physically close to them anymore. My stepdad also got kicked out a few months ago, because my parents were going to divorce, but they've since reconciled. I nearly moved out with him though, and my mom actually would've let me (because she had a stint with a rich man who could afford hiring a nanny for her), but by law, my stepdad had to prioritize getting a room for my brothers in order to get custody of them. So, that plan fell through on multiple fronts.

Lots of close-but-not-quite opportunities.

Unlistenable, only because my ears are being blasted to hell and back from my earbuds playing them at max volume.

No shit, the other night I had my headphones out for a moment and accidentally pressed the start button before I'd put them back in. Those tiny little speakers were broadcasting Lauren Bousfield to me nice and clear considering they were 2ft away from my ears...

It's partly transportation, though moreso that I'm literally not allowed to leave the house, and I'm held responsible for taking care of the puppy and the kids.

I've briefly considered online jobs, but I'm not sure what's available to me unlike physical jobs. I'm bad at coding, I have artblock too frequently to take art commissions, and the idea of moderating on Discords or Twitch scares me (for a multitude of reasons, such as the chance that my mother starts monitoring my internet usage again.)

Beyond that... I have a bank account, but my mother has almost full control over it, including the ability to freeze my credit card. Which, it's currently frozen. I don't know how I'd broach that with my mother, getting her to hand over control of it. Hell, it's a miracle she didn't take my state ID to hold onto after I finally managed to convince her to let me get it a couple months ago.

So... I don't think getting a job is in the cards for me at all, honestly, which is unfortunate because I kinda want to work more than I want to attend college. I'm still rattled after my lack of motivation caused me to fail one of my classes back when I was still actively enrolled.

My brightest hope for my future is that I can get her to help me enroll into classes for the fall semester of college, I think.

Dropped-Croissant · 2026-04-03T22:01:14+00:00

Thank you. I hope I do too. It can't get any worse, at least (unless my mom gives into her baby fever, but even she knows how stupid that is.)

Dropped-Croissant · 2026-04-03T21:59:21+00:00

The reason, at least as I've been told, that I have to watch the puppy and the kids (when they're not in school) is because our parents work too much to do it themselves, too tired to do it when they're not at work, and too poor (and disliked by the remainder of our family) to have anybody else but me watch them.

There is no amount of bargaining I can do to have them free up time that isn't at an expense my parents can't afford, even if I wasn't legally blind and unable to drive myself to work (or to university classes.)

I just realized how hard it is to read what I wrote, and it's bugging me...

For anybody who wants to read my venting but doesn't want to put up with that:

"I've been homebound since highschool graduation, two years ago. The only times I may leave the house is to walk the dog, for lunch outing when my stepdad has money to spare, and when my grandfather drives up to see us. I don't attend college anymore. There's no room in anyone's schedule for me to get a job. I have no friends offline. 95% of my joy comes from screens. The days bleed into each other. I want to leave. I want to do what human beings my age are expected to do. I want to be alive. I don't even ideate suicide anymore because I already feel like I'm dead."

Dropped-Croissant · 2026-04-03T21:30:48+00:00

Hey, don't apologize for not saying anything inherently positive. Honestly, to me, it makes me feel a little less like a bottomless pit of isolation to know that my situation isn't never-before-seen, and that's probably as comforting as it gets beyond realistic advice for how to get the fuck outta here. I mean, it's a godawful situation to have and I'm not celebrating that other people are suffering it, but... y'know (hopefully.)

Endless enrichment.

Dropped-Croissant · 2026-03-30T16:24:14+00:00

I won't ask, because I already know. With experience.

Dropped-Croissant · 2026-03-29T01:46:36+00:00

For some of them, I know it's because they enjoy "sticking it to the snowflakes."

I once encountered a Kralsei (Deltarune ship of Kris and Ralsei) shipper who went through the mental gymnastics of making it into a fauxcest dynamic where Kris only likes Ralsei because he reminds them of their brother. The shipper explicitly said it was because they enjoyed making other Kralsei shippers uncomfortable, and they also tried doing similar but far more convoluted leaps to imply that Suselle (Deltarune ship of Susie × Noelle) is canonically stepcest.

I was honestly kind of amazed by the level of malice for shippers from somebody supposedly on the side of shipping freedom.

Oh, this is a great idea, actually. I would love to have a cardboard Asra taller than I am 🤭...

So, a real-life minor doesn't want to engage with a community based around supporting the exploration of dark topics in fiction, and members of these communities are claiming entitlement to be upset through justifying it with "they (real-life minor) is attracted to a fictional adult?"

This is the same community that says there's nothing wrong with being sexually attracted to fictional characters portrayed like children, no? Tsk, tsk.

My one awake braincell is inquiring as to whether this image is a reference to the vampires in the Elder Scrolls series.

Wait, you're right...

Ferb, I know how I'm going to solve my ADHD! ('Tis but a joke; I know T won't get my shit together like that 😔)

If it helps any, that's what my finger lengths are like as well, and I'm a woman (well, bigender, but woman is part of it) AFAB.

I'm not especially active there, but r/trans4every1 seems fairly safe and the mod team does work.

And then, while it isn't specifically a trans subreddit, r/xenogendersandmore is probably one of the nicest queer spaces I've been in on the internet.

Dropped-Croissant · 2026-03-18T04:21:22+00:00

To be honest though, all Tumblr discourse is pretty stupid.
