I get that it's a bit inappropriate to be flippant and make jokes but if I worried about this every time I saw a headline about it I'd die from my adrenal glands exploding and melting a hole through the back of my computer chair.
I ought to care but I've lost that ability. Annihilation is not scary. I won't be alive or awake to experience it.
I think it just bothers me that people shove the idea of being this cuddly nurturer at me and don't give a shit if it's what I want.
A chess improvement company once wrote an article about me and although I was deeply grateful for the opportunity I am also very glad I saw the first draft because the reporter invented a whole imaginary child. While cutting a lot of my thoughts about annihilation and how it's a fairly staple tactical skill.
To his credit he removed it when I asked but...ugh. Can people not stay on topic ever? I swear to God I could be in the middle of defusing a bomb and someone would mention husbands or children.
What in the name of diarrhea is this? Someone please just explain like I'm a complete idiot
No a very traditional and backwards woman made a comment about how I'd be a good wife for her son who I don't even know.
I don't know how I managed to come across as that much of a worthless cored-out shell.
