After a few weeks of confirming its fondness of cat food, I trapped it in a cage with cat amenities, tried to pet it and got bitten.

Fuck. I don't want to downplay your suffering if you're American, Arab or Ukrainian, an oppressed minority and/or female (I'm neither) but sometimes I feel like empathy is taking a toll on me. It's a huge weight to add to my mental problems. Thanks for the advice, I'm trying to get my parents on board with the "winding down" on the project while I try to get my mind off things and establish a schedule by trying to work in a help call center (I would have preferred manual labor but they are the only company hiring around that is large and evil enough I don't mind them losing money through my incompetence in the presumably short time I last).

I'm European but after doomscrolling on Lemmy, watching Last Week Tonight etc. I can't keep my calm over the US election, which is not helping my existing depression and suspected ADHD. The only good thing I did today was not eat much (I'm overweight) and 15 minutes of gardening. I can't keep todo lists because I'm really depressed over not having completing any meaningful item for weeks, and not even my long-abandoned passion projects spark joy anymore.
I'm afraid things will go very wrong for my mental state if Trump wins. I have two psychologists and a psychiatrist but I'm only meeting them next week. Please help me get my mind off this and maybe even get something done.

Introduced to Ko-Fi through my previous commission, I searched for commissions open there and found Decade Riderbooker.

Lady of the Lake by Ilta Jenson
One of my twitter follows retweeted a call for commissions from Ilta Jenson in the middle of August 2021. The thought of a pixelized animation was irresistable. My costliest commission so far.
Sorry for the irrelevent post but Pirates weren't interested.
One of you can get a SkyShowtime voucher (see below).
As a consolation prize, the rest can watch Czech movies with English subs via Google Drive.
Status: 🟢 AVAILABLE
Ahoy, fellow lemmings!
I was gifted a SkyShowtime voucher for an electronics purchase but piracy is somewhat legal and easy in the Czech Republic, so I won't use it.
You'll most likely have to VPN into the Czech Republic to use the voucher but the (limited!) range of shows will be also available in English, Spanish, Polish or Hungarian. IDK if the UI language can be set. A dollar will also be blocked from your credit card but will be returned when you cancel the subscruption.
To claim the voucher, DM me your e-mail and "My Czech VPN is ready. I promise not to watch Deer Squad" so that I can make sure that you will be able to use it. The first person will be sent an e-mail with the code and instructions on how to redeem it. I will provide support if you encounter any issues.
Note that the selection of shows is limited and most are shit. Highlights include (not guaranteed to be available):
- Shrek movies (all of them I think)
- Madagascar (all of them I think)
- Puss in Boots 1 & 2
- Avatar: The Last Airbender
- Spongebob Squarepants
- The Office
- Forrest Gump
- Green Mile
