I don't think proving I can't restrain myself adequately helps, no. [rubs face] I've been having bad dreams since reading articles on all the black kids killed by American cops recently and what do I snap at? The misrepresentation of some anciently-dead white dudes who died for their religion...I am a mess.
I haven't even managed that card design my mum demanded...kept trying, but have been too tired or too full of hate...I have a pageful of monsters from the shitty griffin generator, but no dove-turtles, and maybe she's gone off and found something else but I don't dare ask and she said she'd send me suggestions of what folks there want for presents and she hasn't and I have no ideas and spotty internet access. *hff*
*gently* You're stressed, overtired, overwrought, overburdened, out of energy. Anyone is a mess in that situation. *nudges rope yet closer*
she said she'd send me suggestions of what folks there want for presents and she hasn't and I have no ideas and spotty internet access.
If you've got the energy to discuss their general preferences and hobbies, I might be able to offer some suggestions based off those. They wouldn't be as accurate as your mother's would be, but if you think it'll help I'm willing to give it a go.
