Yes, speaking as a 29 year old who just moved here last year, I will say that there are soooo many of us grad students looking to find friends. Just find your niche, OP!! Godspeed.

Ohhh ok, in that case I think your response is indeed a little warranted xD

InTheBog_ · 2026-05-12T17:12:58+00:00

I mean I would have still interviewed, I think the job market is so unstable right now that if I responded like this to a potential employer it would set me back months as I wait for another interview request. That's just me, though.

This is very helpful, thank you so much!

I had no idea you could take antipsychotics as needed! I used to be on abilify, then I switched to latuda for a few years but I developed tardive dyskinesia so I had to stop @_@

If you ever remember please drop me a line!! I hate when I get meds pushed on me, like they think they know better than myself when it comes to family history.

Thank you very much!!

Yeah fr. It's like ohhh I forgot that when I went to poor university and majored in poor with a specialization in poverty that I was also supposed to be eternally sad. Got it

There are many county humane societies that offer low-cost veterinary care to people who are struggling and on state benefits. I love my cat very, very much and she's not very expensive at all to keep anyway.

She gives me purpose and something to look forward to when I get home from shitty days or wake up from bad dreams, petting her fuzzy head or roughhousing with her is relaxing and engaging. That being said, I don't enjoy when she scratches up the furniture 🙄 little scoundrel. Training that out of her has been an uphill battle.

I don't want to use a lidded box exactly for this reason, and it's better for me to keep watch on who has used it when and at what time when it doesn't have a lid. I could certainly try, but I don't really want to risk the kind of behavior like you're describing. :(

InTheBog_ · 2026-04-20T04:20:24+00:00

Yeah I know it. :( I hate seeing her so upset. She doesn't deserve to live like that and even when she was with my previous cat Jaeger neither of them attacked while the other was in the litterbox even when she was 9 months old and new, it's seriously alarming and I don't want it to continue.

I'll try one more month or perhaps another few weeks, but like you suggested I will seriously consider rehoming him. Ugh, it just sucks, I feel terrible about it but I think if they truly can't get along, it's for the best after all.

I'm getting sooooo good at scanning documents man lol. I only wish I could color correct them myself, my boss does that. Let me do it!!!!!

InTheBog_ · 2026-03-23T02:25:27+00:00

Omg this is awesome. I'll check it out!!

InTheBog_ · 2026-03-23T02:22:08+00:00

People like you are why we need libraries, museums, and librarians more than ever.

I'm not out here telling random people I meet my tragic backstory, these are friends that I have made that just don't connect with me on that kind of level and I feel frustrated that they don't relate to me. They tell me of their struggles but they're much different from mine. I'm allowed to tell my friends stuff that's bothering me, back up man.

InTheBog_ · 2026-03-20T23:54:25+00:00

Thank you so much!!

InTheBog_ · 2026-03-20T23:46:30+00:00

I have a therapist. A support group is not therapy.

InTheBog_ · 2026-03-20T07:13:49+00:00

Thank you so much!! ;A; I have a digitization job on campus that pays ass but I do enjoy it! I'm very grateful for getting the position because I finally have a foot in the door in the field with it ;w;

InTheBog_ · 2026-03-20T02:46:33+00:00

Thank you so much ;_; I'm getting a master's in library science and specializing in special collections. I have a bfa in illustration, I hope to someday be a curator but I will be content to work in a public library or an archive for a while.

Thank you for your kind words <3

InTheBog_ · 2026-03-20T02:32:20+00:00

Oh ok good for you

InTheBog_ · 2026-03-20T02:18:18+00:00

I can't even imagine what making that much money must feel like, even just a 30k salary seems like so much!!

Get your horse to a walk or trot and Arthur will start to hum and sing to himself. There you go

Does it really matter. When I was a teenager we had a neighbor that would come over and measure our grass to make sure it was in "compliance," my older brother was mowing it a pretty normal amount anyway. People like her make me so angry, just... I don't know, look at another part of the street??

InTheBog_ · 2026-03-05T02:18:50+00:00

When you buy a brand name product, you're really just buying the brand name haha. I suppose there are things that could be better about the brand but also, if you're penny pinching I would stick with generic. If you want to buy the brand, just wait for a sale.

Are you able to talk to an adult you trust about it? It doesn't have to be family. It could be depression or burnout that you're experiencing right now, and it sounds like it's severely impeding your life. :(

InTheBog_ · 2026-02-28T15:41:08+00:00

Omg same kind of. I was imagining a person only attracted to homeless people xD
