It's been almost half a year without social media (well, I do Instagram still and read trending topics on Facebook, but that's basically full stop 😉), and I can say that I can see giving it up long term. Stupid me, I still read what people post on news stories which still riles me up. I really don't understand the hate, discrimination and hypocrisy in the world disposing itself as love and freedom.
My big thing is to try not to let what other people do our say effect my reactions. With the pills that I'm finally back on, the negative emotions are kept pretty much at bay, though I can still feel them pressing against the barrier. The one that peeks out a little more is anger, which is something I always have tried to fight. While I didn't give in to it last night, it did ruin my evening.
El Paso finally got a Geeks Who Drink. I went to the first 2 and enjoyed myself, even when on the second night I had to sit inside (i still don't do so well in crowds). Last night was going to be a third night, but after 2 things, I left pissed. Between rounds, you have to bring up your scoresheet to the front. Since I was the only one at the table at that time, I left my drink and the extra scoresheets, with team name at the table. When I got back, a group of six people moved my stuff to someone else's table. When I confronted them about they said, "sorry, but you got up!". I put up with assholes there who shout the wrong answers, who are creating on their phones, or are overly rowdy, but this was to far too go with me. I tried to continue the game inside since there were no seats anywhere, but even standing in the back, I kept seething, and eventually just left. I have to say that will probably be the last time I do the event, because it is too crowded, it's on the other side of town and because I have no time for any more assholes in my life.
