My old job. They canned me for not liking my personality and made up non measurable matrices to do so. I could sue, but I really don't care. I'll let their business model fail since it's just high school with pay. I was going to leave anyways because of a lack of a raise and my boss was the biggest gym bro with a drinking problem. But I could have at least hung out and kept getting paid. I had a down payment saved for a house and it's dwindling to find a job with the right fit. Because this world is going crazy in many ways.

I had to work on Thanksgiving and Xmas, multiple states away from everyone I care about, out in the middle of nowhere. Again.
My mid 20s niece who lost an argument with my 2 year old great-nephew and spent the rest of Christmas shitty because people (me) kept making fun of her.
Work.
- at least two wars going on right now
- darkness
- I hate Christmas, so... Christmas.
i looked at my cc bill
I paid for my entire family to go to see the Grand Canyon for Christmas. 11 of us in total, rented a big house and a van and we were going to drive all together for fifteen hours. Fly down early to spend time with my mom and she gave me Covid. She has been sick for a couple weeks and didn’t take a test.
She is a nurse.
Mother-in-law's Adderall addiction and years-neglected mental health issues
Might shake things up enough for some meaningful change to finally happen tho, so 🤷♂️
The fact that we aren't allowed to celebrate it in my country. It's seen as unimportant. In fact, we don't ever have Christmas breaks. I saw school buses packed with students heading to class today (and yesterday too), some are even taking exams. Radio stations play absolutely no Christmas music. Nothing in the country is decorated for Christmas. Life goes on as usual as if Christmas doesn't exist.
This video by Gari Sullivan perfectly explains how life is for us. Yes, it's 2 years old already, but I doubt that it's that irrelevant.
