Got up early (for me), ate a light and healthy breakfast, applied to some jobs, took a long mental health walk with the dogs, gave one of them a bath, and even did some phone calls and messaging regarding my medication and pharmacy problems and managed to sort it out without breaking down!!! And! Showered!! Kicking ASS at mental health today

#im studying myself like a bug. with no judgement or compulsive self hate when i see the results. and then doing something different based on #those results #and its working #ive noticed that im much more productive when i have someone else to help or listen to. its a little uh sad because im not easily able to #to take care of myself and do things for MYSELF. but if its for someone else then its like i gain momentum #going out to clean out MY car? well i dont care how gross it is im not worth the effort.#cleaning out my car for my brother who i drive to therapy every other week? fuck yes its going to be nice and clean because therapy is impo #rtant and i want to help you stick with it and so we make it not a chore but lighthearted sibling time #like do you get it #anyway slow progress is still progress #the number of good days are slowly catching up to the number of bad days #post beginning of the pandemic 2020 was so brutal on me. moving back in with my parents especially #but i have a plan now . a real one. and friends to help me as well !#oops rambling in the tags haha #long tags

As cold weather sweeps across the U.S., some electric vehicle owners are learning a bitter truth: Low temperatures can stop the cars dead in their icy tracks.

The issue crystallized this week when some Tesla owners in Chicago discovered their EVs' batteries had died in sub-zero temperatures. Drivers also said some of Tesla charging stations weren't working, or if they did work that the stations were taking longer than usual to charge up their vehicles.

“I've been here for over five hours at this point, and I still have not gotten to charge my car,” Tesla driver Brandon Welbourne told CBS Chicago. “A charge that should take 45 minutes is taking two hours.”

What happens to electric vehicles in cold weather?

Here's what to know.

Electric vehicles are less efficient in cold weather, with Recurrent's research finding that below-freezing temperatures reduced driving range up to 30% on 18 popular EV models.

An EV with a 200 to 215 mile range may only go 150 to 175 miles in the cold, Recurrent's Case said, while noting even that reduced mileage is often sufficient for most drivers. “The average person with an EV drives 30 miles a day,” he said.

Still, a shorter range in cold weather could be an issue for some owners if their EV runs out of juice miles earlier than expected, potentially leaving to hunt for an available charger or, worse, stranded in dangerously frigid conditions.

(continue reading) ❄️ 🚗 🥶

#tesla #elon musk #electric vehicles #yikes #as much as i hate those stupid soap bubble looking cars its not just tesla #yeah this might be a prob #lol i think i can wait a bit longer for my ev #i frequently drive to georgia and north carolina and nyc and dc #i couldnt imagine getting stranded on the side of the road in freezing temps #because my charge died about 30% sooner than i planned #and charging stations are so few and far between to begin with #im not knocking the technology but issa problem #❄️ 🚗 🥶

Things I used to hate and/or fear: driving at high speeds, working out esp lifting

Things currently keeping me sane: scream-singing alone in the car on the highway going fast, strenuous physical activity until every single piece of my body hurts and I'm too physically exhausted for my brain to overthink

#MAYHAPS. I AM BEGINNING TO UNDERSTAND THE APPEAL. OF CAR GO FAST #once again ronan lynch was right.#i hate hate hate hate city driving #but the highway was empty today and it was glorious?#and sometimes u gotta speed just a lil and scream #and then!!! did i overdo it at the gym #since it was my first time back in like 1.5months bc injury flare up and sadness #u bet i did! but my brain has stopped screaming for the first time all week :)#and im no longer convinced im a monster and deserve to be put down :)#so yeah ill pay for it with physical pain thats fine. it's easier to bear #AND im gonna redo my nails #have to have insane bright nails and lipstick #but be v buff. gnc wardrobe. square body. short hair. round face.#i am to confuse others and please myself. aesthetically at least #still refusing to eat but my brain has refused food all week #its a major signal that brain is bad! and so ive been forcing myself to eat safe boring food #its horrible and disgusting but yknow. gotta keep the stupid flesh sack going #ANYWAY i am morphing into a frat boy a littke. but like slightly to the left. video games and booze and fast car and gym gym gym

between my computer deciding to rebel, and work, and life, and I feel like I have a perpetual minor cold with that kinda slightly stuffy feel and that taste in the back of my throat,

I am kindly requesting someone to just Old Yeller me at this point

#the computer one is pissibg me off particularly because i Just built this shit two years ago #then i do a driver update a couple of weeks ago and start noticing that now if i game and watch a stream at the same time #some windows process starts choking the fucking life out of my CPU after a couple of hours #and after following a chain of looking shit up i get to ghe event viewer #and there's just a nonstop parade of errors for typically one or two things #at this point i drag my dad in because im out of my depth #i do some more shit. i update and reflash the bios. i check drivers 500 times. i reformat the drive and reinstall windows from scratch.#even if it seems okay for a bit it eventually starts shitting out errors again.#they are either about DeviceGuard or complaining about the network #i look up some more things! i find some references but they tell me to turn off or on some things that are already enabled or disabled.#we begin thinking theres something wrong with the network part of the motherboard #i have an adapter we grabbed from work to try when i get home.#if that doesnt work then i am buying a new motherboard cpu memory and cpu cooler #because if im going to have to fucking replace shit then i might as well upgrade #part of me wants to keep the old stuff and set up a new computer and try troubleshooting because puzzle. and i hate not knowing WHAT PART #SPECIFICALLY is fucked #bro i am so TIRED #i JUST did the math a few weeks ago and was like YES if i live on ramen for a few pay cycles i will pay off my credit card and start saving #to put toward my student loans when those start up again. and my computer went 'lol thats cute'#like i am deathly afraid that i will replace all this shit and it'll STILL have this issue #like. it's useable. i could live with it. but it's clearly not normal behavior and that's what bothers me. something is clearly wrong.#not to sound old but remember when shit just fuckin worked #like i sat there for 5 hours yesterday trying different shit. finally thought i had fixed something. go to bed. wake up.#STREAM OF ERRORS for the network thing again every few minutes while i was asleep.#what are you DOING. what is WRONG WITH YOU.#my dad is looking over my shoulder at the event viewer like 'that looks like a SQL statement but why is it failing etc etc'#EXCELLENT QUESTION AND I ONLY UNDERSTOOD THREE OF THOSE WORDS! why is my computer sick!!#no it's not a virus. i promise. i was raised better than that #it FEELS like something fundamentally broke. it feels like a hardware thing. but how. what fucking demons did microsoft summon #in a driver update. that went into my computer and physically broke my shit

Most of the time I think life is so so good and then I have one minuscule moment of pain again and it’s like nvm I need to die

#you ever have a good pain week and then you can feel your body getting tense again even when you’re trying to be proactive and it doesn’t #help anymore and you feel like a child again I feel like when I first started hurting when I first realized this was forever I feel like #when I would spend nights crying and thinking about how this was my body and this was my life and how it’ll be like this forever #I almost hate feeling good bc I forget how shitty it is when I hurt #like I truly forget that pain is forever when I have a good couple days and then it always comes back and even when it’s not brutal #immediately I know it will get there again.#I’m pmsing and I’m nervous bc I am stressed and I’ll be starting a new job next week and my shoulders are set more forward then they normal #are and ik it’s from driving and stress and sleeping in so many different places but like god how do I stop being afraid of my body #falling apart while im still using it.#I’m preparing myself for the inevitable endo flare. if it isn’t this month it’ll be some other month. how do I explain to a new boss that I #might have to call out a couple days in a row every month bc I’ll be busy curled up in a ball crying or sleeping for two days #how do I explain that I have to lie about how much I can carry and how long I can stay on my feet because if I didn’t I wouldn’t be able to #get a job anywhere #ugh ugh ugh ugh ugh I feel incredibly young and small and my life is short and just beginning and it feels like it’s racing me to the end #I will hurt in some capacity forever. I just have to deal with that. between emotional and physical pain I am hurting constantly but this #last week has been so fucking good and I have to go back to my regular life tomorrow and try to be good and fix myself and still remember to #stretch even when I’m not driving ten hours and it’s just so hard #I hope I take care of myself. I hope I stop hurting I hope I can be happy soon

Lmao Niamh. They all would use race debrefing as dirty talk, wouldn't they. It's like a praise kink. Or degrading, sometimes. Depending on whom we're talking about. Oh my god.

this is a sport of car fuckers. ofc they use debriefing the race as dirty talk

#seb once told lewis that he’d like to rev his engine and lewis shoved him down the stairs to hid how much that turned him on. embarassing #tho i am ok ok . looking at that degrading bit and !! anon !! pls !! it’s too early for this but godddd #not to make it ferwis but ferwis ??? even when lewis wins nando finds a fault in his driving. voice low. hands hot. pressed against th wall #of a random closet. the irony is not lost on lewis #OR OR OR #martian ??? mark HATING how dirty seb makes normal briefings sound. tongue in his cheek. grinning. hair floppy n damp with champagne. he #ignores the heat in his stomach n the way seb’s eyes dart to him and down to his hips when he stands up. lingering…..#slagclaren ??? where it’s fun but lewis is so used to nando n lowkey repressed so there’s an edge. at least in the beginning #BROCEDES ??????? like do u think nico would use it or would that be giving away secrets #omg maybe he wouldn’t analyse THEIR races while fuckinh lewis but you know who’s races he would. seb’s. either just seb’s driving or seb AND #lewis’s driving. goddd #ok im done lmao. sorry for that #anon tag #niamh.asks

You know :)

nccts is funny. anyway cyberbullying prism is a way of life and i am committed to it i am putting her in a shoebox with no airholes and floating it down the Alafia River to be carried to and sink to the bottom of Tampa Bay where she will be torn asunder by the sharks

#considered marking 'i like them enough to project my own issues onto them' but thats not quite accurate #the nccts have made prism's character into a frighteningly real depiction of an abusive parent that reminds me of my own experiences #and so theres stuff that feels almost instinctively true about her and her relationship with the cods that isnt #bc im seeing my family in it and probably projecting a little because of the parallels im seeing #so i guess it's more 'wow... they are LITERALLY my dad' (derogatory)#i hate her very much (she is an extremely effective antagonist)#she's metatextually interesting bc 'narrator thats a character aware that its a story and has godlike power over it' is not a New concept #but shes a very interesting take on it because shes proper introduced several seasons in #and shes grounded in the world she exists in because her actions have consequences in it on people who are just as real/fake as she is #so its easy to fully invest in the idea that this world is meaningful even if it isnt real unlike some other metafiction thats so consumed #by pretentious metatextuality that it becomes kind of hard to care if thats not the point because it undermines itself and your investment #but cpuk comes with 1) so much investment from seasons of fun and goofy storytelling beforehand #and 2) a thin 4th wall to begin with #so its neither surprising nor undermines its world that the emissary of the highest god of its reality is Literally A Narrator #that polices and alters the narrative to her whim with the goal of driving it toward a meaningful and satisfying conclusion #whether the characters would Really be ultimately happy with their predetermined trajectories as chosen by her or not #because she wont doesn't and doesn't know How to understand them deeply enough to really know what they Need #just what they want on a surface level. without really understanding why they want it. because she can't really imagine something deeper.#which leads her to an often flawed idea of what their 'happy ending' would be especially when she doesn't want to face an ending at all #and thats not even getting into how she's come to view her wards the ciblings like sacrificial lambs on the altar of meaning #someone has to keep things in line. someone has to be a tragedy. someone has to be the villain.#even if it means shaping the lives of the fellow immortals in her care for the worse so that they ultimately hurt themselves and others #girl i think you gave your youngest son a paranoid complex that if someones too Nice tm to him theyre lying and only cruelty is honest #and on top of that your daughter has literally disowned you and her godhood about how you make her feel #your only kid who trusted your opinion on Anything came to you for advice on connecting with people and you gave him an identity crisis #i cant say i dont understand why prism's like this. and i empathize with the problem. but i am still hissing and killing and biting also #*because she can't really imagine a state of content #she can imagine people having depth she just. cant imagine a state of contentment with the self and ones own life #so how's she supposed to really help other people to reach that point

Everyone treats me like a failure for not driving yet but when you ask what age they learned to drive they're like oh I was 20

#stfu renee #renee rambles in the tags #i think driving in ur teens is so stupid and scary and also like a relatively recent thing #why is everyone so up in arms like #i hate cars i hate them #being behind the wheel makes me like so anxious i start crying like not even when the vehicle isnt even moving #sorry i dont drive sorry i built a support system so i dont have to fucking like stress myself out beyond like repair #like i cannot begin to describe how much of a toll driving takes on my body like im like just so stressed out the entire time its like the #second seth says i can be done i immediately just slump over bc its just so much energy to like keep myself like under control at the wheel #delet

Brb getting extremely stressed for some reason

#'some reason' multiple reasons #why is handling my things so hardddd #if i could drive some of these would be solved but i cant afford to get my license rn #i cant get a job n idk if i could handle one anyway #ok lemme start from the beginning: ive had a lot of thongs i want to go n do lately (shows/concerts/parties) but i cant drive so one of the #fam has to go too. but they both work and dont like to go out every weekend (which is how the schedule is working out w my engagements) so i #kinda hate asking them to take me but theres no alternative except not going at all. we went to a play last weekend a concert tomorrow a #party this weekend the renfaire next weekend. and i have les mis tickets for the 8th (havent told them yet). and i just saw that a museum #has a v cool exhibit of dutch art that i really want to see but it closes jun 14th. stupid baka life. idk how to ask ab going to that. or #how to reveal ive already bought les mis tickets (in my defense i did that awhile ago) and i have other stuff to deal w too like 'no job'#but idk this is really pressing me. i just the asking but it has to be done and it has to be done somewhat ahead of time yknow but i hate #doing it and i know they dont want to go n im sorry for making them (tbc i do pay for their tickets im not crazy) but i am gripped by a #horrible dread of not doing these things but after this no more no more! i will not go out so much but we must do these first! i fear the #future. anyway if anyone wants to give me 2000$usd for coding school i do commissions☆
