 Task 6: Write about someone who has disappointed you. It can be in the form of a blog entry, story, or poem.Parts of family have disappointed me within the past couple of years. I have to say that it all started with the 2016 election and because of who they voted for. I knew that a lot of the family would vote for the piece of shit currently in office, but there were a couple that I expected better from and they let me down. Since then, I haven't had the same kind of relationship with them I had before. We don't see each other's posts on Facebook, we don't text each other anymore, and even at the family holiday gathering, we spoke maybe 30 words to one another. The relationship I have with them will never be the same because I know that we just have very different ways of thinking that won't be reconciled easily and I'm not sure that I want it to be. I don't regularly think about them because would prefer to keep toxic people out of my life and that's where it stands. Task 7: Rant about anything you need to get off your chest this week. What is bothering you right now?Lately I have been extremely pissed about debt culture, corporate corruption, capitalism in general, and terrible administrations. I'm sure that I could go into each these more in-depth, so let's try it out: With the way that banks work, with credit cards, how younger people are forced to go to college and go in debt for an education to then only be paid minimally with the degree, it all comes together to perpetuate a culture of constant debt for those people not born wealthy. This pisses me off immensely because I'm in this group, my sister is, my friends, nearly every person my age that I know is in debt with virtually no way to escape because we were sold and forced into the idea of getting a degree to better our lives to only be fucked over by corporations, greed, and capitalism. What ever happened to being able to pay a living wage, why do we have people going to bed hungry when we throw away so much food, why are the pieces of shit in charge trying to build a fucking wall instead of investing in education, infrastructure, housing for the homeless?! But if money were put into these things to raise the morale of the people, they wouldn't be working for sub-par wages and benefits and would demand better, which capitalism and the corrupt corporations can't exploit to continue to make a profit for their already wealthy executives. As days go by, I realize more and more just how annoyed and pissed off I get by all of this and would love to get involved in some sort of change, if I didn't have to be constantly working to keep paying my debts which then keep me locked into the sub-par corporate/capitalist system. |

That totally makes sense to me that avoiding comes down to how comfortable you are with something and how confident you are that you can complete it. I think that's what I struggle with a lot, too. If I don't feel like I can do it, I'm much more likely to avoid it.
Yet there are some things I can handle with no issues whatsoever. 
I hope that you find out why you've been so tired. Chronic fatigue is awful. I like the tasks that you came up with. The Buzzfeed quiz one is an interesting idea.
