  • Last night, I sent a message in a group DM that has my dad in it saying I have a new name, but I wasn't quite brave enough to come out as demienby yet. There's a very high chance that he would have no idea what that means, even if I explained it to him.
    I got a Switch friend request from someone I don't recognize, do any of you go by Birchie on Switch?

    I don't know what ZD is but I've definitely seen that name around.

    Yeah, he's BlueBerryBlue.
    Is there a Windmillville style stage in Mario Party 6 or am I Mandela effecting myself?

    As someone who absolutely love Mario Party 6, no there is not. Although, Koopa's Tycoon Town in Mario Party 8 is similar to Windmillville. Pyramid Park in Mario Party 7 is a similar board to Snowflake Lake in Mario Party 6.

    I swear I thought Windmillville was in Mario Party 6 but apparently I was wrong.

    They're both hugely similar games so you'd be forgiven for that mistake.
    I picked a new name for myself. Now if only it wasn't so stressful to tell people in my real life.

    new irl name or a nickname?

    New IRL name. Like, one that I would actually get my legal name changed to.
    There's no stranger group of people than artists who ignore messages asking about commissions. I literally want to give you money and you're just going to ignore it?

    I'm pretty sure the artists who ignore commission requests are likely occupied with something else. They might be already backed up with commissions or swamped with many requests that yours gets buried.

    I mean, some people aren't interested in money from making art or they are busy or just like making art at their own pace.

    But like, I've been ghosted more than a few times by artists who have their commission sheets as a pinned tweet. These are people who are looking to get money for their art and they just never respond when I ask about it. I don't get it.
    My dad and his friend Mark actually got me to really love a song from 2020. I didn't think that would be possible.
    Wait, wasn't December 24 a week ago? Does time not exist? Am I going to have to keep being anxious until tomorrow? Do I need to get psychiatric help with my anxiety?
    Natalie J.
    Natalie J.
    Yeah I just need psychiatric help with my anxiety. It's killing me so bad right now. I can't even open a DM because my anxiety is so bad.
    I have plans for today but it's going to be really hard not to constantly check my DMs to see what the Shroom team thinks of my writing.

    Don't get me wrong, I'm really proud of the story I wrote, it's just my fear of being hated for everything I do.

    I can understand the anxiety, and I know it's not easy to stop yourself from checking things when you're anticipating a message (I've found myself checking DMs over and over in other situations), but, if you can distract yourself with something, I'd recommend it. You should enjoy the New Year's Eve, find something that will relax you or at least give you a boost in your mood.

    (And, for what it's worth, applications tend to get closed out and sent off in the later evenings in the EST time zone. If nothing else, you can narrow down the window you're left anticipating a message.)

    Hopefully I'll be playing Jackbox and maybe some VR this afternoon so that should help. I'm just glad you all have been so nice with how horribly anxious I've been. I really hope you all liked my writing, even if the application doesn't go through.
    The week of December 26-30 is just an anomaly to me. It's always so weird and blank and empty.
    My boyfriend got his booster today and his arm hurts. Someone please tell him to stop laying right on top of it.

    I did the same thing lol, did it make him super sleepy too?
    I've never been called out harder by a stranger on Twitter than I was just now by "the neurodivergent urge to hide in the bathroom to take a break from social gatherings."
    I just had the idea to do like, a combination RP/CYOA thing on here so I can get some practice doing the serial update style.
    I'm supposed to hear back from the Shroom team I believe on Friday and it's fucking killing me. Goddamn unreasonable fear of everyone hating everything I do.

    Trust me the 'Shroom team is very nice and cool, even if an application gets rejected they give feedback and suggestions on how to improve
    Natalie J.

    Don't worry, I know that, I've written for the Shroom before.

    ...don't read it, it's awful. But for the short time I did, I worked a lot with Stooben Rooben and he was extremely nice. My fear is coming from my irrational fear of being hated for everything I do. It's nothing against the team.
    Is it a social anxiety thing to say literally anything and be like "oh my god, everyone is going to tell me how much they hate me and don't care about what I have to say"?
    I'm the lil bro.

    I think everyone worries a little bit about other people's responses from time to time. It starts counting as a disorder when that fear is debilitating enough that it's getting in the way of your life and difficult to manage.
    "What percentage of people online are looking at the forum list right now" is a fun game I like to play sometimes.
