"One thing I wish Brits would understand:
Talking about bad things doesn't make them real.
Ignoring bad things doesn't make them disappear. "

Lemme try translating that (badly, prob).
私は１分をイギリス人が分かってが
「悪物を話ってが起こりません。
悪物をそっぽを向くってが地を払わせません。」
が思います。

（ワタシ、イップン、ジン、ワカッテ、
ワルモノ、ハナシッテ、オコリ、
ワルモノ、そっぽをむくって、ちをはらわせません、
オモイマス。）

Omg, the auto translate on mastodon almost turned the phonetics into a poem:
" （I'm a yipun, jin, watashi,
Warumono, hanashitte, okori,
Warumono, turn away, but won't let the earth pay,
Omoimasu.)"

All after I looked up "I want to play" from https://www.tanoshiijapanese.com/dictionary/conjugation_details.cfm?entry_id=1208 (「やりたい」?）　
Then thought of "I was not going to want to have played."
Closest I got was to start from these forms:
yari takuna kute. Yari takuna kereba?

Okay, for "I was not going to want to have played",
A translation app suggests:
私は遊びたくありませんでした。
（わたし、アソブ。）

[ As for me, play-want was not. (?) ]

Darn it! Yeah, I also tried to construct the weirdest, most complicated sentence I could that would use just yaru and -tai.
I guess more formally, it'd be closer to "Previously, playing was not what I (would have) wanted." Maybe?

昔から、遊びってが私は重たいくない
（むかし、アソビ、わたし、オモタイクナイ。）

Translation app suggests, for the brit advice:
「イギリス人に理解してほしいことの一つは：

悪いことについて話したからといって、それが現実になるわけではありません。

悪いことを無視しても、それらが消えるわけではありません。」

（いぎりすじん、りかいして、
ワルコト、はなした、ゲンジツ。
ワルコト、ムシ、キエル。）

Other people in the JP group chat have confirmed: my sentences still make no earthly sense to anyone. (冗談🤭）

日本語のグループ・チャーットが正した：
相変わらずで、私の文が誰にも筋が通りません。

アイカワラズで、わたし、ぶん、だれにも、スジガトオル。）

Honestly, I've considered it on multiple occasions. Main things stopping me are the same as for non-sex work. It's *work*. It's work *with people*. I can not do it.
(I don't blame anyone who does. I don't blame anyone who has to, wants to, doesn't want to, etc. Everyone is different. Disabled or not, we all push ourselves way more than anyone should have to.)

Lamotrigine / Lamictal has dialed down all my senses. This is great for autistic overstimulation.
I am bleeding. I somehow smell very faint blood because my body insists on it.
I feel no gender euphoria from this. I only feel body orgízō-phoria.
https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/%E1%BD%80%CF%81%CE%B3%CE%AF%CE%B6%CF%89

I wish to never smell blood from anywhere again, nor taste metal from nosebleeds. I desire to sustain no needless injury, in fact!

Once again stewing over the gas-lighting from both the nightmare client and CiaF.
I've had parents with personality disorders BTW, I *know* what gas lighting is.

They sent an automated reminder to download my tax information.

( I cannot do this because I cannot log in since they temporarily suspended my account. )
