If you hear bad things about me that means I'm alive. People only talk good things about dead people.

That's true too often. But, its up to each person every day to do differently. Easy to complain and blame others for how the world is... what have you done yourself to make it different/ better? Not pointing at you and yet it is each individual who can make a difference in small ways. Different choices. Maybe keep criticisms back and find something good to say instead. Or just give a friendly smile even on a day when you are stressed, down, etc yourself.

Also, it is true that a smile makes them wonder what you're up to.

You ever want to jump on someone's post and be like, "shut your fraudulent lying ass the fuck up".

First, that is not written well. Anything with "be like" in that way sounds childish. The way the quote is written is too disrespectful and begins any conversation with antagonism. So, whatever you point is, it will likely be lost in the aggression you bring.

Secondly, it has to matter enough. Most of the time it doesn't. Either it will start a fire I don't want to bother with, ignite a troll, or just take up too much of my time and energy and not change a thing, or make any difference. Confronting people isn't always worth doing. Most of the time I can find something else I'd rather do than headbutt a wall.

Self-sabotage is sometimes the nervous system choosing a pain it can schedule over a hope it cannot control.

Reasons I do things:

• Someone said I couldn't.
• Someone said I shouldn't.
• I got told no.
• Out of spite.
• I was left unsupervised.
• I got bored.
• Pure stubbornness.
• To prove a point.
• Cause I said I would.
• For the plot.
• Cause I can.
• To see if I can.

I wish that was always the case. Most of the time its because someone needed, demanded, asked me. So many things I (we?) do that we don't want to do everyday. Looking after your parents as they get older and need help means you are never unsupervised. In the quiet times, at night, I remember I am still my own person. Someone who could have a list like the one above.

Nobody is important enough for you to be putting your energy into proving them wrong.

I hate when people say, "If you love me you'll accept me as I am". Loving you doesn't mean tolerating your refusal to develop emotional intelligence and heal your dysfunction. If you loved you, you would do the work so people who love you don't feel forced to walk away.

Sometimes people pretend that you're a bad person so they don't feel guilty for how they treated you.

Be careful about your words because you don't know how many times it repeats in someone's head.

I know every generation has their class struggles, but let me tell you about the summer of 1990 when Supersoakers hit the market and only a few kids could afford them and the rest of us were hunted for sport.

How did we end up in a nightmare timeline where groceries have become both a luxury item and a health hazard?

The universe is not punishing you. It is not blessing you. It is not controlling you. The universe responds to the vibration you are creating. Think happy and happiness will come to you. Think negatively and negativity will come to you. What we put in the universe, we will get back like an echo.

My days are backwards. I wake up tired and go to bed wide awake.

I don't follow people I don't like. I don't keep track of people I can't stand. It's wild to me that there are folks who religiously hate follow you and stalk your every move to attack. Please go heal and go to therapy.

Comment in reply:

I know someone who didn't care who followed her. Let them watch, she said.

Instead of giving a man the benefit of the doubt, how about we doubt the benefit of a man.

Never leave when it gets hard. Leave when it gets inconsiderate, inconsistent, and disrespectful.

You're a ghost driving a meat skeletong made from stardust, riding a rock, hurling through space. Fear nothing.

The best thing I ever did for myself was learn how to be a monster, an absolute monster then, how to control it.

On Facebook someone posted: Have you ever lost all respect for someone, like damn that's who you really are?

I commented:

No, because people are more than just one thing, one dimensional. We don't have to agree about everything or see everything the same way. Unless someone is very aggressive and disrespectful, I am not expecting everyone else in the world to be all sweetness and light. But you can treat people, plants, the planet itself with a little patience, if not kindness.

Other than someone like a serial killer, someone very abusive, violent, aggressive, I think I can stand by what I wrote. I hope I can. It has been tested a time or three, so far.

The hobby or sport of hobby horsing is about holding onto a hobbyhorse while performing (there are competitive tournaments) like a horse and rider. This can include show jumping (hurdles), barrel racing, galloping, and dressage. Mainly young women. Much easier for them to do all the running and jumping. Also, they might not feel silly about performing with a toy horse. I think its great exercise and something creative and active to do.

Riders are judged for their coordination, balance, energy and body control and overall performance of show with energy and style. Also for the grooming of the hobbyhorse!

Hobby horsing is a sport with gymnastic elements which uses hobby horses, also known as stick horses. Movement sequences similar to those in show jumping or dressage are partly simulated in courses. The participants predominantly use self-made hobby horses.

Introduced through Selma Vilhunen's 2017 film Keppihevosten vallankumous (Hobbyhorse Revolution). Official trailer on YouTube.

In Finland, the country of origin of the hobby, an annual national championship is held in addition to regional competitions. Popular with girls and young women between the ages of 12 and 18 years. The first Australian national championship was held in Queensland in 2024. The European championships of hobby horsing will be hosted for the first time ever in 2026 in the Czech Republic. It will be hosted by the IHHF (International Hobbyhorse Federation).

My Mother likes to drive around looking, studying, homeless people and drug addicts wandering around in the town/city here. I don't understand. My first instinct is to avoid them. I don't seek them out for conversations. I don't feel hugely sorry for them or really want to know the story of their life. It is enough to manage my own life with its ups, downs and sideways.

Often, like now, she will just go off in the car and park on the main street where the homeless drug addicts and whatever else they are, gather. Here it is right at the intersection where McDonalds, payday loans, a pot store (sold in stores here in Ontario) and a pharmacy handing out free drugs for addicts (also currently an Ontario thing), are. Handy, one stop shopping for them.

If we are out shopping for groceries, something she needs from the hardware store, etc. I will be in the car too. Mom doesn't walk so well these days so I'm there to do the shopping, the walking around part. Almost every time she goes for a look at her "homies and druggies" taking me along with her, like it or not. I don't. I don't like anything about it.

Why do some people have this fascination with the down and out? Also known as street people, but you could assume that was anyone walking along a street. It isn't about people watching, or it is a specialized version of it.

If I look into it I may not like what I find, so I'm putting it off.

First, remembering how to spell Mistria. Fields of Mistria "a cozy farming / life-sim RPG" is a lot like Stardew Valley in looks and game play. A bit too much like it. But, the only thing I dislike are the NPC images, not the pixel little graphics in the game play itself. They look out of place and are not cute. I just ignore them as much as I can. I prefer the little pixel people.

I've been using the wiki to find things and understand how to use the auto feeder. Still not using the auto feeder because it does not work with the typical, less costly, feed.

Fans of Mistria is another wiki, created by fans. Now that I've found it I'm going to use it more often.

Mistria Atlas

There are mods for the game but I'm not using any. So far.

• The Mods of Mistria Installer is required to include any mods.

• Prevent Farm Debris from Spawning is tempting. Even though all that debris piles up fast, it can all be used if you pick it all up. Takes a few days (game days) to clear it all.

• Time of Mistria Slow down or stop the hours speeding by. Most of these life/ farm simulation games have a rapid pace with the timer. It does get frustrating. Plus, there are the demanding farm animals to pet, feed, and escort to and from the premises every day. Sometimes I just leave them out there to fend for themselves.

I haven't found many sites of about yet. I will add useful sites if I find more. Quite a lot of posts about the game on other sites and network sites. I like including the fan sites more than posts here and there which may not get updated (or show a date).
