i have had such a bad day! first it started with this: at my school, we have a slight snail problem and if you go to school early in the morning you can find snails just about anywhere. i had found about 7-8 snails and placed them in a group on the ground, then, lets call him spencer, he just stepped on them, which didn't bother me that much. but he just had to step on them twice ..... and jump up and down, now he had been like 'oops i didn't see them there.' i would have been fine, but he said 'thanks for the mass killing.' and just walked away. then he came back with his friends and started to pick at the dead snails, saying stuff like 'dude look at that' or 'look at that blood splatter'. at this time i had found two more and kept them hidden from the group but then another guy said 'lets kill those ones.' and took a rock and just smashed the other smails. but the worst part is that some of the snail stuff spattered my entire uniform and my face. but as my size prohibits me from decking them i just walked away and got my water bottle and poured it on on the entire group of boys(there was coffee in it). they just were startled at the size of me and how i had just embarrassed them in front the entire school.

Lórien I'm sorry you are having issues with your friend. Picia has some good ideas but mind If i tell you some of my thoughts about it? On the thread linked on the front page I shared my experience with one of my long time friends and she reminds me of Emily. The relationship didn't end well. I know you are worried about not being able to mend your relationship with her but from the sounds of it she is not a good friend for you and you deserve much better. I know you are iffy about talking to your parents about it but maybe you could ask your mom for advice, she's likely had her own share of bad friends in the past and can help you figure out what to do with Emily. I know my mom helped me with Mikeala. If you ever feel like you are being pressured into doing something you don't want to do (like going to that sleepover) you can always ask your parents if you can use them as an excuse not to go. My mom always told me that if I wasn't comfortable going out and I didn't have a good excuse I could always say that she said I couldn't go and she would back me up. I know you're worried she might make it worse by trying to talk to Emily's parents but she cares for you and if you ask her for advice and not to step in then she will probably listen and help you. Confronting people is always difficult, especially if it's people we consider close to us. Even if it seems like a cowardly thing to do, Pic is right in the fact that maybe you should text Emily instead of talking to her face to face. It gives you more time to think about what you want to say and time to process her reactions and think about your next move. Other people think that face to face conversations are the best way to do these things, but if she is such a bully then it's safer for you to do it from afar. When you do it, have Megan with you. She understands what you're going through and will be willing to help you or even hit the send button for you. I"m really sorry that Emily is so mean to you. It's not a healthy relationship to be in and I think it should end, for both of your benefits. I'm not say you have to cut her out of your life or anything. But hold off on staying so close to her till she understands that what she is doing is wrong, and if she doesn't realize what she is doing really hurts you then she isn't a person you want to be around. There are so many more people around that want to be your friend. (like me xD) You're worth more than being bullied.

I'm sorry you had such a bad day. That's really disgusting what those boys did to those poor snails! I don't understand how people can hurt such innocent creatures like that! I am super proud of the fact that you poured coffee on them. I hope you are proud of that too! They deserve to be punished for hurting your feelings like that and those poor snails.

I am super proud of the fact that you poured coffee on them. I hope you are proud of that too! They deserve to be punished for hurting your feelings like that and those poor snails. What really gets me here is 'thanks for the mass killing.' That is a very sensitive subject and with everything going on in the world now, what has gone on prior, and just in general, that is not something to be joked about- even if it were just on some snails (which as Deamon pointed out, is still messed up and wrong.) And the fact they did it deliberately twice? Honestly, good for you for doing what you did. It honestly feels so good to stand up for yourself, especially when people don't think that you'll do anything, or underestimate you because of size, you show them that you are not to be messed with and hopefully now, they will leave you alone. I was in a situation where these two girls were talking bad about me and my sister right in front of us and they had been doing it for a while, and finally one day, I snapped and yelled at them, told them to leave me alone, ect and their faces were priceless. They couldn't believe that I stood up to them and after that, they didn't say another word to me.

The world and people are strange and act in ways that aren't really predictable. The best we can do is meet challenges with strength and support each other and spread kindness and love. Just know that you are accepted and liked here. I can't promise you that the rest of the world will be like that. But You have a safe space here.

Good afternoon! Yesterday wasn't the best day at work for me. I just kept remembering all the times it seems customers have used my "gender" against me. See I don't look like a sterotypical guy or girl, I have different features of both. (Guy haircut, kinda body build, flat looking chest)(kinda high pitched voice, rounded face, not flat enough chest) So there have been people that have assumed I'm a guy and when they suspect otherwise they use that against me. I once had a guy say "Man you got a really squeaky voice donchya?" to me. Or another guy when told "Miss Deamon will help you" said "I thought that was a Mr. Deamon" And when i told him I go by both he responded with "Well can whatever that is help me." I didn't worry to much about this guy bc he called my shift supervisor a weenie. But still. I've had a guy ask my coworker "I'm not trying to be rude... but is that a girl over there?" like yes of course that's rude.
And why is it always guys? What do guys have against me looking and acting like both? Like WTF. Stop using my genders against me pls.

lol yeah i've gotten those questions since like 3rd grade when I cut my hair super short. I used to get offended then I started asking "What do you think?" But Kids did it mostly because they were curious and wanted to know. Adults do it like they have something to prove. They need to affirm the fact that "That person isn't right" So they ask with that glint in their eye that shows they just want to show me they know I'm not right.

Good Morning!
Oh gosh Deamon, that sounds terrible! I feel like some people just have a hard time grasping when someone is not like they are. They can't seem to understand that everyone is different in their own way, and that when they are, they have a hard time accepting that. It really stinks because I mean, even if you try to ignore it sometimes, it doesn't always hide the 'hurt' so to say. Like they are still saying those words. You would think that people would start to be a little more accepting? People always seem to think that the world has changed it's ways of discrimination, but it really hasn't. People need to just learn to accept that not everyone believes the same things, thinks the same things, feels the same things ect ect.

Yeah I feel ya. It sucks and it makes me angry that people love to point out my "flaws" like that. I've even had some people try to "trick" me into revealing my "real" gender like it's some kind of game.
And most of the time when I'm at work it's guys that point it out or bring attention to it. I've never had a girl say something, always men.

Well what perfect timing-
I had a pretty brutal weekend of just doing homework. Today I start my next workload of homework. Though I would take a moment to steam off by watching anime.
I just saw the latest episode of Danganronpa3, and my dreams were shattered. I thought the despair ark was making me angry, but the latest episode of the future ark drew the line. I tossed my headset against the wall, and walked away and I'm still shivering at what I had just seen. I know its a killing game, but they stooped beyond the levels of low to pull off what they did.
Detective Conan has done things like this, but Danganronpa....Oh... that blasted future arc.
I was happy for the second person killed in the latest episode. Bummed out about who was killed at the start of the episode, and really really angry about the individual killed at the end of the episode.
I dunno if I want to keep watching from here. They drew the line, and I can't sit properly; I feel so anxious I dunno why. I've seen worst, in real life and in social media; so why is this making me so out of it?
Proabably because I just wrapped up my entire weeks worth of homework yesterday. Thought I would cool down with anime, and it only spiked up this agitation.
>.< That anime is nothing but a trigger. However- knowing me I'm going to finish it reguardless no matter how much I disagree with it.
Anywhoo- Needed somewhere to vent a little. Sorry for venting about something totally unrelated, and probably just not worth venting about.
