personally headcanon that Will is very used to working while sick, to the point where he seems almost unfazed when getting up to do something that requires more energy than he has to give
post-fall, he somehow did not anticipate Hannibal absolutely not allowing that at all. it's a fight to keep Will in bed so he can rest, and Will is going to lose.
#'Will you are in desperate need of rest'#'but the sink isnt working'#'I can call a plumber'#'but your car-'#'I can call a mechanic'#'You hate mechanics :['#'Will. I am not above tranquilizing you.'#no mimir#hannibal#nbc hannibal#hannigram

what do u think of long term jack and kath in a hypothetical where they can be healthy enough to last
oh jatherine light of my life !!
i'm the first to say that i don't think jack and kath would work out but i love hypotheticals and i love these two. so. jack would have to work through his anger issues / PTSD / learn to use art as a healthy coping mechanism first (rizz if u see this !!) and kath would have to distance herself from her father and learn who she is underneath all the glitter and the showiness.
but if they were able to do that, and if katherine was willing to live well beneath her means, joseph likely having cut her off, (and i don't think jack could rise in rank very easily), and if they were willing to rip up the gossip columns, i could see them rent a little french flat. katherine learns to cook through trial and error, and they eat burned food for the first several months. jack works at the docks and comes home with wet clothes, smelling vaguely of fish and foreign spices, and katherine rubs his sore muscles in the evenings.
they're very young when they marry, not much more than twenty, and before two years are up, katherine is pregnant. i think they eventually have two children, a boy first and then a girl. jack spends far too much money on toys and trinkets for his kids, like baseball cards, marbles, dolls, because he tells katherine that he'll be damned if his kids grow up like he did. jack sees the first teddy bear in michton's brooklyn candy shop, hears about the origins, and rushes home with one in his arms, eager to tell his kids all about how he knew the teddy roosevelt.
#thebarkeep on ao3 has this crazy fic called “for you are my fate my sweet”#and jack's a political cartoonist in his twenties#and it's a great portrait of life ca. 1903 and what his future could've looked like#and i debated using that for this analysis bc that's how jack could've risen in rank and married kath#but frankly as much as i love it i Don't think it's very realistic that he would've been offered that job at all#here i go on my depressing realism streak again#plus blue collar jack is sweet to me bc i think he'd finally find contentment in his environment and make a good living#full respect but i dislike the ‘jack can only be happy if he rises above his societal ranking’ narrative#newsies#jack kelly#katherine plumber#jatherine#analysis#headcanon

get it Kim has a lot to unpack do you get it
it's imperfect I'll never polish it just take it as it is I should have put aerostatics not airplanes...
#I don't know how the hell to draw kim#PLEASE gib me feedback#pretend the dialogue is better this is all I can do lol. but you get the gist of it#aaa give me constructive criticism. the other post about kim secretly being a loser made me think about what his apartment would look like#and this popped in my head I had to draw it#is this in character?#there's no eyebrow battle because in my head this happens some time in the future where kim opens up a little more easily#at this point he trust him with his secrets more (but not completely. harry's not touching the blue box today)#but it's a mixture of ''maybe if I tell x he will stop asking for more'' and real trust#but like do you see that happen#it's a secret because he doesn't want other people to learn that insisting can work#like I said in the tags of the other post I think he never lets anyone in to the point of avoiding calling the plumber even if the sink#has been broken for months#addition: fuck I should have putted more machines in there. I couldn't think of anything else other than radio controlled airplane#and a sewing machine. he must have more stuff like the camera.#he'd have some dangerous thing to warm the room#and nerd stuff. I'm not sure if he'd display it or keep it boxed somewhere#disco elysium#that's a convertible couch-bed if you can't tell. half covered with the Pile#pointless microblogging#it's so hard to draw them right they look different in every official thing#believe me I have tried#idk how to put more of the skills here :/#I have achieved peak kimharry brainrot I can't go back

-Go to my bathroom to take a dump. Water all over the floor. Check inside toilet; looks drained, with some toilet paper at the bottom.
-"Dad, I think toilet has a leak."
-He gets upstairs and IMMEDIATELY starts lecturing me about making sure I flush all the way. "It probably just got clogged and you weren't paying attention and it overflowed."
-Tells me to go get the mop.
-"...We have a mop? Where is it?"
-Deeply annoyed, he says it's probably in the garage or something, acts like I should know this.
-I go check the garage. Only Swiffers, which is what me and mom use to clean the floors. I bring one up. "Like this?"
-"No, a REAL mop!"
-I tell him if we have a real mop, I don't know where it is. Annoyed, he comes down, looks through the garage. 10 minutes later, mutters angrily, "Mom doesn't use mops anymore?"
-If she ever did, it hasn't been for over 20 years. Because I didn't learn HOW to mop from my mom, I learned at my fucking work.
-"Well, I GUESS this is all we have. Bring the plunger up after me." He takes the Swiffer up and starts cleaning the water. I take the plunger, certain we won't need it.
-He tries to flush the toilet, expecting it to be clogged.
-It flushes completely fine.
-He checks the tank. Oops, looks like nothing is wrong with the tank. He looks back at the plunger, then at the toilet. Mutters, "it fills up really slow."
-"I know. That's why I figured it wasn't overflowing. Because it's my toilet, and I know it fills up so slowly that even when it does get clogged, you can flush it once and the bowl will only fill to the bottom of the brim before water stops pouring in. You'd have to repeatedly flush it to make it overflow."
-He looks around the basin. Oh, what a surprise, he finds where the seal is broken. There's a leak.
-By the way, you know how I mentioned that I only learned to mop at my job?
-I'm a fucking janitor.
My dad takes "mansplaining" to a whole new level.
#mansplaining#I'm so fucking pissed off right now#and he had the audacity to get mad at ME for getting annoyed at HIM when he was patronizing me and treating me like a child#MY JOB IS TO BE ABLE TO TELL WHETHER SOMETHING IS A CLOG (WHICH I CAN FIX MYSELF)#OR A LEAK (WHICH I HAVE TO REPORT TO CALL IN A PLUMBER FOR)#candaru rambles#tw: negative#negative tw

I want to cut my hair
I want to cut my hair
I can't cut my hair because fuck if I know where the hair clippers are and even if I did know where they are I can't take a fucking shower to help me clean up afterwards
I can't fucking shower because we still don't have water in the house
#the plumbers are coming tomorrow#I really hope they fix things so I can take a shower#I'm metaphorically chewing on the walls#I'm literally scratching my skin off from my eczema#look I read books like My Side of the Mountain and Little House in the Big Woods because they are fun not because I wanted to recreate them#this whole thing could have been avoided with the properly timed phone call but we missed that window and how we need to play catch up#before winter arrives#cause guess what hauling buckets of water to use the toilet only works when you have a hose to fill them#and in winter the hose has to be turned off so it doesn't freeze#I am very grumpy and feel very gross#my last shower was 6 days ago (last Friday)#I've been able to use body wipes to stay mostly clean but it's not the same

The vile dreamzen attacking the righteous wayzennie over criticism of jeno is ultimately a futile exercise bc everybody in this conversation know he is a dozen and his only appeal is to ppl who like writing about him having dog sex with the other dream members. there is no debate over talent to be had bc looking like a dog is quite literally the only thing this guy brings to the table.
#he has been on stage since 14 or whatever and this is the best he can do. maybe his calling is in telemarketing or small auto repair.#maybe if dreamzens cared about him they would pay for some classes so he can become a plumber and stop terrorizing the rest of us#anyway fuck dream and fuck dreamzens i hope bts eats them#sidney talks shit

lol fuck that guys pipes <mantra of clearing out my shower with draino instead of trying to get my dipshit absentee landlord to call a plumber for me
#literally the process ALWAYS goes like this: i submit a claim on my tenant website. nothing happens. in two days i call my property manager.#it goes to voicemail. the next day i call again and MAYBE get a pick up or else i get voicemail again and they call me back while im at work#they confirm they will send someone. a week goes by. out of the blue i get a call while I'm at work.#“hey this is the plumber im 5 minutes from your house lol is now a good time?” me: no im at work. “well can someone else let me in?”#me: no i live alone. “oh uhh well they [landlord] didn't tell me that. how about tomorrow same time?” me: no i will also be at work.#then we go back and forth for a while trying to schedule something because nobody else has a key to let work people in to my place#THREE TIMES WITH THIS SAME PATTERN. WHY DONT THEY EVER SCHEDULE AHEAD OF TIME?? WHY DO THEY JUST SHOW UP WITHOUT WARNING WHEN I'M NOT THERE#once to replace my fridge once to check out my toilet and once to replace said toilet. god.#emily.docx

A darkness one cannot truly comprehend until beholding it before their very eyes has consumed my senses and tarnished my body, but now I come out the other end with a cleansed mind and spirit <- took apart and cleaned the slow draining sink in my bathroom
#I did all of it without gloves too because they have seemingly DISAPPEARED from the house#I searched high and low and accepted that I’d just have to raw dog this situation cause I was sick and tired of it#at least it’s done and over with and I can call myself a handy dandy lesbian who doesn’t need to call a plumber

Honestly that anon should direct their concern towards the Ladlestans considering they're the ones who are using the antis*mitic dogwhistles to support their waifu, or better yet, direct it towards the game itself considering Supreme Leader's hatred for dragon family is reminiscent of a conspiracy theory.
Yep,
The game has a lot of "unfortunate implications" - but unlike the Tellius "if we coexist too much one of us will disappear" shit message, those unfortunate implications are supposed to be found out, after playing all routes, to be untrue.
(even if the message "crests BaD" is kept all around...)
But I think there's still a difference between a bunch of fantasy pixels accusing a fantasy sekrit cabal of religious genocide survivors of hoarding all the riches, and real life people kind of disregarding the sheer notion of "genocide" because "victims were oppressors" or had alleged positions of power...
I wish we could say "you're joking right" but, sadly, no. Maybe it's just a troll ?
#replies#anon#look at me being all 'back in my days'#but yeah back in my days if you wanted to troll you kept clear from some real life topics#godwin points were godwin points but no one used that rhetoric to prop up a fave?#at least as far as i remember#when you learn at the end of VW what are those so called crests#how can the game still make sense with the 'crest bad' refrain?#like putting value on people based on their concentration of dragon blood is bad#but saying the very concept of dragon blood is bad? Seriously?#and that's not talking about the obvious differences and advantages crested people have over non crested people#between superman and bob the plumber who will you pick to defend your house against a bandit?#FE16#sort of#fandom woes

i just had to put my hand in the hole in the bathroom floor to try and clean it. i had gloves and a trash bag on my hand, my mom on video call telling me what to do and i cried the entire time. 0/10 experience, do not recommend.
#and it wasn't even that bad?#like we still dont know why the bathroom flooded#now i put tuboflo on the shower and we'll see how that goes#and then if it still floods I'll have to call the landlord which is mortifying for some unknown reason#like when i first moved in and the kitchen sink was leaking i told him and the next day he had called the plumber and they fixed it and#we never spoke of it again#and also he had told me that if anything needs fixing i can tell him#but my social anxiety which i try to pretend is just independence wont let me#also i still havent asked for my ac remote controller back and theyve put the paper up that saying we can go get them for over 3 weeks#i think i need a roommate that is only around when theres something wrong with the house or im in a crisis#okay tuboflo time is almost over so i gotta go byee#jo says stuff#personal ramblings

Sometimes I think I don't explain The Artist's insecurities very well in Cyberpink 1824, but on the other hand...
IT'S JUST THE RESULT OF BEING IN A PROFESSION SPENT 75% INSIDE YOUR OWN HEAD AND DEPENDING ON THE SUBJECTIVE REACTIONS OF OTHERS TO GET YOUR BREAD.
#cyberpink 1824#I used to be confused as to why artists who could kick my ass 10 ways to Sunday just kept it as a hobby#but now it's like y'know what? that makes so much fuckin' sense#art as a profession can be rather rough on mental health#ESPECIALLY IF ART IS YOUR ONLY HOBBY#and some people can't afford having more hobbies than that#having a “boring” job where no one can emotionally manipulate you by calling you too dispassionate about your “life's calling”#is not a bad decision#*gestures at how much abuse there is in the games and vfx industries*#man plumbers don't have this problem#the leak is fixed or it ain't#“wow why aren't you giving 300% for the love of toilets?”#“wow why aren't you groveling to have this job for shit pay at this company that made your childhood?”#of course noncreative industries also have their abuses too *gestures at all the bullshit farmworkers go through*#but there's like a certain brand of killing yourself from the inside that comes with creating in a shitty work environment

i have work tomorrow. i need to shower before work. the shower in my bathroom is clogged. it has been slow for months. i have snaked it as best I can and that has not fixed it. i usually resort to dumping a bottle of draino down it but im out. i informed my father last time it happened and he threw a Pattented Man Tantrum where he yelled and threw shit around and acted like it was the end of the world. in order to shower tomorrow morning, i would have to use my parents' shower. which. would involve waking my mom up at 6am. and probably explaining to them that yes the upstairs shower drain hasn't magically fixed itself since the last time they ignored it. and all of this. is making me so anxious that im sick to my stomach. and i cannot sleep.
#i will order some draino tomorrow. but that doesnt fix my problem tomorrow morning.#and id say ill just call a plumber but what if its a huge problem? what if hed have to rip up pipes and stuff?#its not my house and thats now my call to make yknow#uuuuuuuugh also the drain is shaped in such a way that you CANT get a big snake down there. i can only do the plastic 2 foot ones.#and the whole bathroom needs cleaned but i get this dysfunction every time i go in there because i cant clean the tub#so i cant clean ANYTHING. bc the tub doesnt drain. in fact theres nasty scum on it thats just. old soap. i couldnt rinse it off.#bc the tub wouldnt drain#im really about to have a panic attack over this and i can SEE how silly it is but like. AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA#carly.txt

Yeah I saw the lovecraftian horrors and didn’t succumb to madness. What- no I’m not a cultist, James. For Christ’s sake. What you’re forgetting my friend is that HP Lovecraft wasn’t a flexible man. His brain simply wasn’t stretchy enough to take it all in. I however, have short term memory issues. Flexibility is the name of the game when you can’t remember if you ate lunch or not. What’s the size of the universe? Big. You knew that already, James. Come on now. You don’t need to witness the terrifying ocean at the base of the entirety of reality itself to know that. Pass the brandy.
#this vaguely reminds me of that one tma episode where the Nikola orsinov calls a plumber to come to this manekin factory#that has been turned into what you would imagine when I say “horror movie manekin factory”#with the intent of freaking him out and then turning him into manekin number 10920957495830#but he just doesn't even notice that he's talking to a circus performer#much less that said circus performer is a manekin wearing someone's skin#or anything else in the turning people into manekins process#so she just lets him leave#(and then calls him to come back because the problem he fixed came back so she can show him off to her friend)

#ohhhh my god I just want a house#just a house where if the toilet is broken I can call a plumber of my own choosing#or if the dryer is broken I can save up for a new one#where I can feel empowered to make decisions regarding the safety and repair of my abode#without trying to skirt delicately around a spouse’s insecurities about talking to the landlord#and then not being delicate at all but instead politely imploding without making eye contact#I want someone to help me sort out my bedroom for once and for all instead of promising for ten years#if I’m being completely honest I kind of just want to die so I don’t have to worry about any of it anymore#which. isn’t great#but depression is what it is and I swim through it the best I know how#an exhausted doggy paddle forever and ever amen
