emotional pollution

Noun. A distracting and excessive cloud of feelings that surrounds a complainer and overcasts an event. May include complaints drenched in anger or grief, but not a physical solution. Used to push others away with its feckless toxicity.
--He could have done his homework, but instead just spent an hour complaining about it. The air was so thick with emotional pollution, I just had to get out of there.

--I think she had a problem with my attitude, but I couldn't care less. She just babbled emotional pollution of "blah blah blah." Some people live to perfect their outrage.

Emotional Flatliner

Someone who shows no emotional response to anything, no matter how poignant or stirring. They’re either so repressed that nothing gets through their emotional firewall, or so disconnected from their feelings that even a child’s laugh, a heartfelt poem, a soulful song, or a breathtaking view leaves them completely unmoved. Picture a human equivalent of a flatline on an emotional EKG—zero reaction, just a blank stare.
"I played her my favorite song, the one that makes everyone cry, and she just shrugged—total Emotional Flatliner."

Enjoying the late night instead of sleeping. Staying up much later than is smart or practical in order to claw back a sense of self and autonomy. Anti capitalist insomnia.
My emotional support insomnia kept me up until 4am reading fanfic. I’m so tired but it was totally worth it.
