Today at 7-11... I had someone order a massive order of wings. This was before 8PM on a Thursday. The guy behind the counter looked at him (obviously trying to determine if he's serious or not) and went, "do you know how long that will take?" Then he made sure the guy paid first and threw those nasty ass wings into the oven (or is it a fryer? it was covered and I was trying not to look/laugh). Either he has no standards (there's literally a Buffalo Wild Wings 2 miles up the road, not that they are apex wings but I think everyone would agree they're better than 7-11) or that poor bastard was high as fuck. Luckily another guy opened the second till and I was checked out in all of 15 seconds. The other day at 7-11, a guy asks a girl behind counter "I wanna buy this Drone to stalk a girl I know. Do you know if this comes in HD?" This is in Manhattan, no less.

Thoughts that came to mind. I never should have volunteered for the Buzzer awards last year. I was the wrong person to do so. I thought I could do it, but it broke my heart when I saw that not everyone made the cut. I lied because I wanted more people to be nominated. It wasn't for personal gain. I was tied for 6th in one category prior to my ballot, and I let others get in over me. I know what I did was wrong, and I hate myself for it still. And I also know I will never live it down. I know that not everyone trusts me, or wants to talk to me. By not wishing to hurt anyone, I still did so unintentionally. Let's face it, I'm a loser. I have no social life, can't drive, have no friends outside of the internet due to being sheltered my whole life, spend my entire life hopping from one viewing of a movie to another. I am kind of like the overly anxious puppy dog of the board, just trying to make people feel better, and I fear I fail on all accounts. I'm not good enough. Maybe someday I can make it up to you all. At least I hope so. I judy want to be a friend to all of you and talk about movies. But you deserve better than me. All the people here are great. I'm not. chill

And how dare you think of yourself as a loser? Everyone's going through their own difficulties in life and so are you, that doesn't make you a loser. A stupid buzzer awards? For god's sake!! People here love you, so please stop this self loathing now. Love yourself. <3

At least I hope so. I judy want to be a friend to all of you and talk about movies. But you deserve better than me. All the people here are great. I'm not. I don't think anyone really cares whatsoever about the Buzzer Awards, besides you. We all know you chose inclusion over popularity. Let go of it. I would say forgive yourself but honestly, what is there even to forgive? What criteria is that for being a loser? I do not have a license currently either. I was homeschooled as well. Upon being diagnosed with anxiety and depression, I turned to films as a mean to cope. Am I a loser? I certainly don't view myself as one. It is not your obligation to make others happy... but it is your obligation to find peace within yourself. You're not good enough? Then help yourself grow as a person. Make it up to us? Make what up? Trust? Credibility? I assure you nobody cares that much about the stupid Buzzer Awards. All the people here are great but you aren't? What are you talking about? You can not just be exclusively attached to internet folk and parents. People online will likely move on with their lives eventually. Your parents will not be here forever either. As someone who lost his father, let me tell you something: you need to be strong and not be brought down by the harsh realities of life, and certainly not by petty things. Taran, seriously, see someone that can help.

I don't think this thread is a good idea but I wanted to share some thoughts.
For some reason there was a LOT of anxiety surrounding in the air today at the city. It didn't help that the new police units had its commencement today.
You can almost breathe it. Won't be surprised if someone flips out and shoots everyone again.

My hangovers now last the entirety of the next day. Round two's in my life are officially over. That's why you gotta make sure that you don't drink alcohol for the last hour or so to sober you up a bit, then take an Advil right before you go to bed.

I had this weird dream last night that the Academy decided to open tomorrow's ceremony by announcing Best Ensemble, a category they'd created this year but had decided to keep a secret from the press until Oscar night to make things more entertaining. The nominees were Hidden Figures, Fences, La La Land, Hell or High Water and Moonlight, and I remember thinking "Shit, people are gonna be pissed that La La Land just broke Titanic and All About Eve's record".
But they never got around to announcing the winner-- in this or any other category, because the opening act and presenter banter took up so much time that the show's 3 hours ran out before they got to the first envelope.
Then I woke up.

It was raining on the other side of the street from me today. Fuck those guys, am I right?
Also, to drivers out there, when it's so foggy it looks like you're LARP-ing a Silent Hill game, DON'T USE YOUR BRIGHTS/HIGH BEAMS!

Trying not to stretch myself too thin. Which has always been a problem for me and resulted in a lot of unfinished works. Myself and a few friends are developing a web series. We've already written it, cast about 90% of the parts, scouted most locations to shoot, and are working on acquiring proper equipment now. I know a guy who is a producer and has actually worked on real projects and still continues to work and he's going to have a meeting with us soon about the project to see what he can/will help us with. Really we just want his advice and any knowledge he may have of creating any sort of equipment we may need. Things like lighting equipment for the cheap seeing as how we're completely self funded we don't have a big budget. I'm also writing something that I'm not sure what it is yet. It started out as a comic and I even had a guy who was willing to review it and possibly create the art for it in his spare time. He works a full time job and part time for Marvel so I'm not sure how often he'd even be able to work on it. Regardless it's not a comic anymore. It may be a novel or series of novellas? I'm not sure, but it's growing exponentially every time I work on it and there's no way it would fit in such a "small space" as a comic series with how much lore I've already developed for it. I was working on a few other writing projects but this has overtaken all of them.
Other than that long ass rant about bs up there I'm just working, taking care of the family, and trying to make it through each day. Work is overall good and contains very little stress so that's very helpful.
