Fuck my shitty hair genetics. Why me? If I'm just gonna vent here for a moment, christ, literally what can I do with such shitty hair? I've been trying to take care of it better, I just never have enough fucking hair. I just want to live my life nicely with hairstyles that go with my outfits. For once. Sock buns aren't even supposed to be hard! What can I even do to solve this. I don't want to wear wigs for the rest of my life. Hair extensions, maybe? Pills? Tablets? Vitamins? God, this is just so disappointing.

My boyfriend's foot is smaller than mine

I don't feel i have a really pretty face or body. I have one cosplay where i feel stunning in it but outside of it i just feel like such a landwhale and unattractive. I'm in the process of cutting out too much crap in my diet and eating more fruits and veggies. My issue is that i suffer from Tempomandibular joint disease. I'm not allowed to eat crunchy/chewy foods. I'm stuck eating things like Mac and cheese whenever i have a flare up or i hardly eat at all. My joint is fine but my jaw muscle is way overworked. I wear a mouthguard and that helps. Everything just spirals out of control when the pain sets in. All i can do for it is take Aleve and use a hot pack.
Tl;dr: TMJ ruins my diet. Want to look more kawaii and be more in shape for cosplay.

She has a gofund me to pay for her student loans AND a separate one to try to weasel money out of people to pay for her trip to Otakon? I'd say fuck this bitch, but she'd probably pop out another kid.

I'm so sick of seeing these people opening up funding sites to mooch money off people to pay for their con trips. No you assholes, anime conventions are not something you should be begging others, especially when you're a fucking ADULT.

Bitch needs to worry about taking care of her kids and paying off her school loans before she starts begging for 1K off strangers so she can go run off to an anime con.

I'm so fucking sick of seeing this entitled attitude people have when it comes to going to anime cons.

>people who shove their used, often partially full drink cups in between the bolts of fabric
>people who don't take a ticket despite the giant WELCOME, PLEASE TAKE A TICKET sign over the cut counter and then bitch at us for not telling them they needed a ticket
>people who don't understand that they can't pay at the cut counter and complain that they have to wait in line again for the register
>people who keep touching/moving the fabric while I'm cutting
>people who sit their kids up on the counter in my cutting space and then say "oh, I don't mind" when I try to politely warn them that I'm holding a very sharp object and they might want to move their baby
>forever running on a skeleton crew, which gets cut even more when sales go down, and getting bitched out by customers over the lack of staff
>people who ask questions like "How much do I need for a dress" or "I just want enough to upholster 5 chairs" and when I ask for more information (like did they even fucking measure anything) they say "Oh you know, just the regular kind"
>cutting ultra cuddle, minky, and velboa
