apparently the kind of anxiety that prevents one from printing out forms, filling them out, printing out postage, sticking it to an envelope with any adhesive, and - gasp - actually leaving the house to go as long and far enough as the mailbox, at which -- double gasp -- one is actually also expected to put the flag up!

seriously you don't have to interact with a single human being to send mail

but what about the anxiety of knowing someone you'll never meet is reading and judging your handwriting and who you voted for.

It's simply too much.

i accept that some people strive to do the bare minimum to survive in life so they can spend the rest of their free time jerking around (literally i personally have been revisiting this acceptance just this morning)

what i can never truly accept is those sorts of people into my life
