I went down the Marilyn Manson abuse rabbit hole this morning and I am horrified:

I knew he was into some weird stuff but I didn't know he was a total sicko.
Regarding Marilyn Manson- an acquaintance of mine worked for him years ago.....From what was shared, Manson is a terror to his help, and obviously much more horrific to deal with in terms of LTRs.
Fuck him, seriously. When he came on the scene I had to point out he was ripping off Alice Cooper's shtick- I'm that old to remember that Cooper started the "horror rock" theatrics.
The dumbest thing of all is over the years Manson has been open about what a shithead he is. Maybe people try to change him and have gotten burned. I'm NOT blaming his victims. (Side note- I'm not sure if he identifies as a Satanist anymore. Most Satanists strive not to be a pain in the ass to people in their orbit, as it gets in the way of having a harmonious/pleasure filled life. Just had to mention this. Not all Satanists are shitheads.)

Ugh I feel so full and idk why. All I ate was a yogurt for dinner.
No wonder why I feel so bloated and full! I've been taking collagen tablets and supposedly they make you feel full, especially if you take them on an empty stomach like I do. For the past couple of mornings, I've been waking up feeling like I don't really want to eat anything because I have no appetite and now I know why.

Whichever video it was that showed all of his incriminating comments in interviews was very surprising to me. I like some of his songs but I've never been a major fan who follows him closely and watches all of his interviews. I thought it was interesting how much he dislikes people talking about/criticizing him to where he has them beat up and threatens them with his gang connections.....pretty sensitive for an alleged 'antichrist superstar' IMO.

Do they cut your appetite?
I just took a 90 minute walk because I feel so bloated and full from these things. It's like I feel stuffed and I haven't eaten for 3.5 hours now. And I'm still not hungry.
I am not going to take any more collagen until after I go running tomorrow morning because they make me feel so rolly polly and stuffed I don't want to run. Never had this problem with collagen before.

They've been good for my skin and hair, and my fine lines aren't as noticeable. But geez I feel so full and bloated. I ate 1100 calories worth of food today and I'm stuffed!I have a more athletic build and have had to watch it w food too.

I take collagen in the form of my coffee creamer, vital proteins is the easiest to find. I already take a ton of vitamins and find collagen pills to be huge. Is that brand large? I get weirdly annoyed by that.
I don’t really notice a difference in appetite maybe less bloated, but if I skip a few days I am noticeably less vibrant.

Why do people ask for advice, only to turn around a dismiss it? Someone I know had this romanticized notion of raising chickens. One of the non-brooding hens must’ve found a cracked egg at some point and pecked at it. Once that happens, it’s all over… they’ll not only devour every egg they can find, but they’ll actually impart onto the others in the flock, and the chickens will eat all of the eggs. So she had this problem, and I told her the first thing was that she needed to separate the brooding nests must better than she did (which I told her this in the beginning) and the second part, she just didn’t want to hear - if she wanted laying hens that wouldn’t eat the eggs, she was going to have to cull all of the ones she had. “But… isn’t there a way to break them of the habit?”. Yeah, we’ll just have them appear on the Dr. Phil show, right? She questioned her ability to kill them. Well, a friend in need is a friend indeed, right? I told her no worries, I’ll do it. She asks, “How could you?”. It’s fucking easy.
If you’re going to decide to venture out just far enough for a taste of supposed “country living” after living in the city your entire life, either accept that production animals are expendable or just don’t fucking bother.

I bought a small bag of Sour Patch Kids to eat on the drive home. I accidentally opened it like a jackass, and it split all the way down on both sides, so I couldn't close it up again or even carry it. So I resigned myself to eating them all on the way home. I literally reached the point where I never wanted to see another Sour Patch Kid in my life, but kept shoveling them in because I didn't want to waste them. Now, my tastebuds are trashed and I'm full, even though my body is begging that I balance out the sugar with something of nutritional value.
Why am I like this?

Was Super excited to use my zero water filter in my hotel room and when I arrived I find there are no cups in the room hahahaha. I remember the good days where they gave you a pen and a notepad too in the room. Hopefully they don’t start taking away the cups.
They even have a coffee maker in the room bahaha. Guess we’re birdying coffee from the keurig! Lol

I have a bazillion things I should be doing, but it’s cold, wet and rainy and I can’t get myself off the couch.
Friday nights used to be “gotta go out in cause YOLO”.
Now, I feel like I’m doing my duty watching stupid tv, ordering takeout (and overtipping) and staying home because COVID.
I’m actually weirdly proud of myself.
Either that, or I’m just getting old...

One of the best is (don't recall the name) butter blast popcorn? I can't recall the name but it's so good! At normal stores in Cali. Super cheesy. Also I remember like a year ago they had powder additive seasoning (cheese, garlic, and forgot the other one maybe white cheddar?) that you pour on the popcorn at a movie theater I went to...saves on calories and was so good!

Totally get having a different lifestyle and all natural (whatever floats your boat) but once I saw this guy in a youtube video I was thinking "this guy is what you see in a Whole Foods" .....Girlll the day a husband wants me to build and live in a treehouse with him is the day I leave. I'm not having my period in a treehouse out in a jungle let alone swift EMS care in the middle of an emergency.

There was a popcorn I loved when I lived on the east coast that I've never seen on the west coast, is was the butter popcorn by the Wise brand and it came in a teal and clear bag. I had to leave the cheesy popcorn in my car last night so I didn't go ham on it before I got it to my friend's house. Speaking of all this popcorn, I remember way back in the day the Pop Quiz popcorn where you had no idea what color the popcorn was dyed until you opened the bag:

I quit my part-time job this week. Last night was my last night. I'm glad to be done with it. It's gone from being an easygoing part-time gig with consistent income to a pain in the ass. They've been consistently cutting my hours throughout the last 6 months, to the point where I think I've gotten my full paycheck one time. The last couple months especially, they're always telling me not to come in at all because it was "slow" - meaning they just don't want to pay me. Yet, with the other clean-up person gone, and them cutting my hours, the mess was really piling up and I could never catch up. Rather than realize that they needed to give me more hours to keep up with it, they instead kept adding more and more shit to my daily to-do list, to the point where it was physically impossible to keep up with everything in the small amount of hours they gave me. So things just got worse, and so they added more shit... and then wouldn't let me work to the do the things that they expected me to do??
The last straw was two-fold. First, the commute is just brutal now. It's not worth it for the money. I used to live less than 5 miles away. Now it's almost 30 miles. Then, they just finally hired a new clean up person, and gave him 5 days a week - 3 of which would overlap my shifts. I was like... what??? You've spent 6 months now refusing to even give me my 4 full shifts a week to save on "labor hours," and now you're gonna give this new guy 5 days and double us up on 3? How do you suddenly have the "labor hours" for that?
Anyway...
My last shift was so anti-climactic. I don't think anyone who was working even knew it was my last day. None of the people I'm friendly with were working last night, and the manager spoke about 10 words to me and didn't seem to have gotten the memo that it was my last shift. He didn't even say bye to me. I just walked inside in the middle of my shift and realized he had gone home. Like... ok... peace out. lol

Good fucking grief what is with these messages "I heard you like to drink. What would you like?" after reading back channel reviews. I get they are trying to be nice providing for me...I'm on probation. Please don't post this in messages to me men. UGH. I'm serving legit time if something bad happens and police check my background check and your messages.. They tailor probation terms and this was mine. Can't even work in a place serving it.
That's what happens when it's back to back cases. So close to the end of this DUI drama and then court to get it removed so I can move on at the end of March to nursing. Geesh.

Someone found out a room in this house was vacated and now they’re trying to persuade me to rent it to their cousin. And I’m just not with that program. I don’t want to be a landlord, and that’s just not how things work here. I don’t want to put myself in a position where I’m exploiting others - especially those in disadvantaged economic situations - to pay for a mortgage I’m more than capable of paying on my own simply because I had capital and they didn’t. I expect them to contribute in upkeep, and financially insofar as things which are for everyone’s benefit goes - e.g., Internet, utilities, food, etc. I wouldn’t say it’s a collective here… at the end of this mortgage, I’ll have sole ownership of this house. But we operate a lot like one.

Before the world ended I used to go on planes for business trips , demand a sports car to go at all ( usually a mustang ), then check into a 4 star hotel in that city.
That was the LIFE man . Sometimes I’d put 12 hours in per day for the travel and first couple work days. Id get tired but it was awesome.
I’d do it TOMORROW in a heart beat !!

Trying to finally be a real "hot girl" and learn how to do makeup properly. I found this funny video where a girl had her makeup done on 4 different "levels" - the first being amateur all the way up to professional makeup artist. The funny thing was, her idea of "amateur" was her friend who, while not being a "beauty guru" of any sort, does her makeup every day and has watched youtube tutorials and stuff. I'm like LOL, bitch, that's not an amateur. An amateur would be someone like me, who literally has no idea what you need to "do" your eyebrows. Now, THAT would have made for a good video. lmao
