Be thankful we have a bar and pray that I don't remove it altogether. (/J)

Yeah, I didn't recognize what anxiety was until a medication gave me a panic attack. I've been able to recognize it since. Due to my upbringing I'm probably further behind than most in that respect so I've taken it upon myself to try and catch up.

Not a problem! That's why I clarified

I'm not super invested in deciphering an expression but yeah, if someone had that expression I'd probably be willing to approach them

I thought it looked happy and amused. Maybe this is why I have trouble with socializing lmao

I almost had kids, my one and ONLY condition with my partner at the time was a stable living situation, aka a house. It's been years since them and its only gettingore unaffordable. I've had to move every year for the past 4 years to not get out priced. Rent has increased 50% since then too

I don't go out into public much myself anymore, there's nothing for me to "do" outside of chores and errands. Most of my friend interactions are online or at a private residence over anything public.

Traditional animal farms, or tradional farm animals?

The former is how we used to farm animals with lower density and free range, the latter is animals that have historically been bred and raised for meat; pigs, cows, etc.

That's similar to how I learned! My brother could do it and I was envious and figured it out, he can do it for as long as he wants but my eyes tire after maybe 20 seconds or so

The man chose death. Do not look twice

Ahhh well, thank you for the clarification. It's good to understand it so I can recognize it myself. I'm notoriously bad at self analysis with those types of things.
