The Vampire Knight experience:

[elric-art]

TFW you desperately want to read good fucking fics because it's been like what- a whole year? And you've been working on a long ass slow burn as well but your dumb brain is like "you can't read anything, you might end up accidentally using it as material and it will stain your creative flow" so you end up doing nothing and going back and forth through your 20+ chapters and realize you need to add more in-between stuff but instead you focus on making it exist before you refine it but you're an idiot and haven't been taking notes of what happened so far and then when you write stuff it contradicts things that have already been stated because none of your friends want to be your beta because they don't necessarily like the kind of stuff you're writing or just don't read what you have at all so you just sit there letting the cycle repeat.

Catharsis

Episode 4: Not hungry

Warning: Body dysmorphia, (self) fat shaming, eating disorder

Your problems aren’t your kids’ problems. Stop unloading your self-hatred onto the people you raised. If you spend their whole lives bitching and moaning about how “fat” you are, don’t act shocked when your kid ends up with a warped relationship to food and their own body. That constant self-deprecation isn’t silly or fun or “just venting”, it’s fucking poison. You’re marinating your child in your insecurities until they absorb them as their own.

TLDR: Your kids didn’t sign up to be your therapist. If you can’t stand yourself, fine, but stfu about it around them and get some actual help instead of passing your misery down like it’s a family heirloom.

Boss 2 months ago: We got a gig tomorrow! We're gonna be inking for 8 hours straight and make lots of money! You, me and Colonel, back to back at a sports bar!

Me: Great. What time are we gonna be there?

Boss: Don't worry about it 😎

Me: Wha... Ok.

Boss the night before: Can you send me your documents?

Me: Ok. Here's my stuff.

Boss: The lady says the vaccine paper is expired.

Me: How do vaccine papers even expire?

Boss: Yeah the lady says it's a new system, you're gonna hafta either get a hepatitis booster shot or get a lawyer to sign papers saying you don't get vaccinated for religious reasons if you can't get the former on time; it won't be expensive, I know a guy.

Me: ...And you want this done tomorrow morning?

Boss: Yes 🥲 Colonel's papers didn't come through in the new system so he won't be able to participate.

Me: Oh. (Yay, more money! 😭)

Boss: So to keep things amicable I'd like to divide our income 3 ways to help him out.

Me: (As long as I'm not expected to still give you 25% of my income all things considered...) Sure...

Boss: Cool! Sorry to spring this up on you last minute.

Me: (Shouldn't have left it for the literal last minute then.) Yeah.

When the best commenter finally finishes your fanfic

The Truth is an otherworldly humanoid entity that traumatizes you by showing you something you can’t unsee.
