I turn 25 today and I think this is the first birthday I've ever had where I wasn't looking forward to it. I feel OLD, and I know I'm not but I just feel like the last 5 years of my life have gone by in a blink, I'll blink again and be 30.

I've been having a really tough time lately, Covid lockdown has got me really down. I'm lonely but I'm also anxious even leaving the house now. I think all this isolation has made my social skills even worse than they were pre-Covid

Will do!

Will do!

Evangelion 3.0 + 1.0 was released in Japan today, I read spoilers and I am so incredibly pumped to see this movie whenever I can get an english subbed version. I'm going to cry like a little baby

Yeah that's what I'm worried about, landlords have other ways of making life difficult besides putting up rent. She is very petty too so I am afraid of how she might respond to me challenging her. I'm already on her shit list because we paid rent late last month, I think her raising the rent with such short notice this month was retaliation for that. But for now, I'm happy that I don't have to pay the extra!

I feel like all I do is come on to the megathread and give out about my renting situation but some good news finally. My landlord attempted to raise my rent for the coming month and gave me only 3 days notice. I contacted the tenant-landlord dispute board and they told me she has to give me 90 days written notice before she increases my rent. I emailed her and told her I'll be paying her the previously agreed on amount, not the new rent she wants me to pay. So that's a small victory

I emailed the landlord-tenants disputes board to see if what she's doing is illegal, I'm hoping that I don't have to pay this increase because money is tight enough as it is, I didn't budget for an increase in my rent. It's so stressful!

I posted a couple of days back about the problems I was having with my landlord and today was the final straw. I got a letter in the post from her saying she is increasing our rent from the 1st of March, giving us just 3 days notice. She also says she wants us to pay up for some discrepancy she found in a deposit payment from 2019 even though the guy who didn't pay the right deposit moved out in September. Me and my housemates have all decided to say fuck that and we are all going to move out at the end of March. Luckily I can move back in with my parents and work from home there, it's not ideal but I can't live in this house anymore. Fuck landlords.

My extremely wealthy landlord is charging us a late rent fee because we were slow paying the rent. It was late because our housemate moved out and we were having a hard time finding a person to replace him because it's a pandemic, we are in lockdown and people aren't moving to cities. We have been perfect tenants and always paid on time, but the one time we don't this bitch charges us extra. I'm so mad I could breathe fire. Fuck landlords, vile scum

I've eaten an absurd amount of pancakes today. And I plan on eating a lot more before the day is out. I take Pancake Tuesday very seriously

I hope you all have a pleasant Valentine's day today, whether you're celebrating it with a partner or just treating it like any other day. I'm planning to spend the day catching up on Attack on Titan and cleaning, so it's just a regular Sunday for me

I've actually started using tiktok way more and it's very addictive. The "for you" page very quickly figures out what you like to see, it's a clever algorithm

Jimmy Kimmel speculating that the wall street bets redditors are "Russian disruptors" in his monologue. Liberals somehow manage to bring everything back to fucking Russia :deeper-sadness: Link , skip to 12:30

I hope you feel better soon :heart-sickle:

I had an eating disorder for most of my teenage years up until I was 21, even though I'm on the other side of that now I still obsess over my appearance and how other people see me. I know that I am reasonably attractive, but sometimes I catch a glimpse of myself in a mirror and think of all the things I could "fix" about myself to make me more attractive. It has been a long process to stop from thinking that my worth is directly tied to how attractive other people think I am

Every hour is hating irish landlord hours. My landlord's father owns a rake of properties in the greater Dublin area so I assume she's overseeing some for him, takes her about 7 business days to respond to emails (if she even does) and she never answers the phone number she gave us. I've never actually seen her in person but I'm sure if we stopped paying rent she'd be on to us straight away. What is it about irish landlords in particular that make them so shitty, every one of my friends who have rented in their life have had horrific experiences with them

Renting is such a head ache. One of my housemates has just moved out, hasn't bothered trying to find a replacement for himself so when it comes to the end of the month and we still don't have a new housemate me and my other housemates will have to cover his portion of the rent. The fridge keeps turning off and on and the landlord hasn't replaced it yet, I have to duct tape my window closed and the roof leaks if there's too much rain. Renting is soul destroying, and with the way the property market is in Ireland I'll never own my own home. Feels bad

I have biceps! Little ones. I noticed them today when I was brushing my hair in front of the mirror. I'm happy with that progress. My triceps on the other hand... They simply do not exist

They're airing a glowing profile on Kamala Harris now, makes me want to stop paying my TV license fee tbh
