Apathy Tree

Imagine being the people who are expected to, like, deal with shit like this… like how do you take this seriously? At the same time you have to not only take it seriously but also deal with the threats and shit… I certainly don’t envy them.

So what I’m hearing is… put a bunch of random stickers for various things on your car to make them work really hard to figure out if you are worth it, instantly making you not worth it!😜

I was told the first line repeatedly as a teenager, and stopped wearing makeup a few years later as a result. Then I’d hear intermittent comments about how I look tired because I have thin skin around my eyes. I look tired no matter what I do. But whatever because I save a bunch of time every morning and evening, not to mention money. Holy hell is makeup expensive!

Now as an adult nearing middle age who stopped even using hair dye, I’m starting to hear that I’d be prettier if I did my makeup/hair better… and I just go “yeah, probably.” And shrug. I’ve accepted there’s no winning, someone will always comment, so I just do what I like. Not my problem if that makes you feel insecure enough to try to change my behavior.
