i’ve been thinking about whether posting this or not, as someone who is actively struggling with depression and suicidal thoughts.
          	september is suicide prevention month.
          	a month really important for me, for the people who survived and/or are surviving.
          	even tho sometimes life seems dark, there’s always gonna be light at the end of that tunnel.
          	could be a strong light, a weak light, but always light.
          	hope.
          	i’m struggling to reach that light, you are not alone, and if someone’s struggling too, just know that there are people who love you.
          	you are loved, enough, cherished and needed.
          	and most importantly, you are not alone.
          	never.
          	as long as you bring joy in someone’s life simply by existing, stay.
          	so if you or someone you know is struggling, even if you aren’t sure, don’t hesitate, even at the risk of being wrong.
          	better to be wrong than regret it.
          	and if you need someone to talk to, i’m here, we can do this together.
          	you are amazing, remember that.
          	sophia ♡

          dear writers,
          there's a scam going around.
          random account will comment on your stories, being vague about it and saying that they'd like to draw a panel or publish it on external sites.
          they are trying to get your money, please be careful ! 
          especially if they leave a discord or instagram account, stay safe lovelies ! ♡
          
          
          cari scrittori, 
          attenzione c'è una truffa che che gira su Wattpad da molto tempo, ma l'ho constatato solo adesso che esiste. Scriveranno un commento bello dettagliato sulla tua storia, però stando vaghi sul fatto che gli è piaciuto un sacco, sul fatto che vorrebbero farci un disegno o dei pannelli come dei manga o dei fumetti o semplicemente vogliono pubblicarla loro su altri siti, promettendoti che questa storia farà milioni di letture, non fidatevi perché non è così.
          alcuni possono anche essere genuini se esplicitamente spiegano il perché gli è piaciuta la storia del tipo io scrivo di Pinco pallino Pinco pallino mi è piaciuto perché...  mentre se mettono alla fine del commento un account Instagram o Discord non c'è da fidarsi. 
          vogliono estorcervi soldi.
          State attenti ! ♡
          (sì ho usato la dettatura perché ho le unghie appena fatte lol)

this message may be offensive 
little vent:
          where i live NO ONE is hiring, or at least, that's what they say and then they hire someone they personally know.
          the fact is: how can someone find a fucking job if this is how they treat people? 
          they want people with experience, if you have it, it must be at least 4 years and if you don't well that's bad.
          i already sent 8 CVs to 8 different places, when you go and have an interview they look for EVERYTHING except experience.
          they look at your appearance, at your face, if you have tattoos, if you have piercings... and if you do, you are not welcome cause they are unhygienic.
          and that's okay really, that's what i think too, but when i say that i can take them off, they find something else: the make up, offered to take it off too.
          someone even said that they do not hire "junkies".
          how the fuck dare you.
          i have no words.
          valtellina is such a weird place.

@rednnedy exactly that!
            i’ve done so many internships that my CV is full of restaurants/bars i’ve worked at.
            i feel you too, i’ve been thinking about moving out as well. there’s a little city two hours away from mine where they hire, but they’re mostly seasonal jobs… better than nothing tho!
            
            not having a driver’s license isn’t the best when you live where i do…
            
            i might go abroad and get some experience, you never know!
            sending lots of hugs too, and good luck, i'm sure you'll find something, i believe in you ! ♡

As someone who’s from Spain and has actively been looking for a job for a few months now, sending CVs all over the country, I’m having the same exact problem and apart from the constant rejections (some of them from places I’ve done my internship at and my superiors were pretty happy with my work and in their words, “they’d like to have me full-time”), it’s that thing of hiring people they personally know because they’re friends/family
            
            I’ve been thinking of moving out because there’s no future from me in here, and it’s all being a nightmare. Feel you, and sending you hugs
