This past weekend, I made it through one of the big bosses in act 3 of Baulder's Gate. I wept like a child over Karlach's monologue about how she still feels empty after killing the guy who sold her to devils, and it didn't change the fact that she was going to die. What's the point of it all?

I like just got into the keep in act3 but will be chasing down the murder to keep people from being killed. Karlach is my favorite and part of my core team but the only member because of her personality. Astrion and laezel are their but its because of their abilities that I like. That being said but not sure. Last thing I can remember is losing it a bit at my dads funeral. I had said I would not be crying when he died because I was all cried out from the alzheimers but it still hit me when the last curtain dropped.

Sad parts in TVs/Movies.

I no longer feel emotion when people or events are involved unless someone dies. Then I will feel sad (and may cry) at their funeral, but otherwise don't cry over it.

Sun in my eyes and wind. Hard to cry when you know you are dead already.

I was at a family wedding this weekend, and I teared up at the speeches made by the maid of honor and the best man.

The Expanse, "you're not finished yet"

I mainly cry at myself for being pathetic.

Next to last time was when I read an article about this video at work. Last time was when I got home and watched the video

The song The Flood by AURORA

It really resonates with me due to my struggles with bipolar disorder

That my mom will never tell me she's proud of me. I'm 40 I just want to hear it a few times

[–] Washedupcynic@lemmy.ca 2 points 2 months ago

You made it to 40, you didn't die, and you have enough disposable income to access the internet! I'm proud of you! I hope you are proud of you.

My partner's grandfather passing away last night

I've been crying all week. I'm 31 weeks pregnant and just diagnosed with gestational diabetes. It's been a really hard week being bumped up to a high risk pregnancy. I'm so tired, and scared, and now i am on an exhausting eating schedule and plus, no little treats, ever. So many doctors appointments that I am attending alone when my brain is so slow.

[–] LadyButterfly@reddthat.com 3 points 2 months ago (1 children)

That's exhausting and scary. High risk pregnancies are high pressure, and it's having a massive effect on basic day to day things like eating. Eating is supposed to be enjoyable. You've also got loads of doctors appointments which is more effort. How are you doing with it all?

[–] ChexMax@lemmy.world 2 points 2 months ago (1 children)

I'm totally burnt out after only a week and a half and I still have 9 weeks to go. My sister and mom are coming over tomorrow to help me meal prep though! So hopefully that makes everything a bit easier. Thank you for checking in on me

[–] LadyButterfly@reddthat.com 3 points 2 months ago

That's good mate I'm glad you have support. Don't forget you can vent in !WomensStuff@piefed.blahaj.zone anytime you want to

[–] ContactClosure@lemmus.org 2 points 2 months ago

My friend just wrote a song about Uvalde. It's the 6 most recent things that made me cry.
