5 boring facts about me
Tagged by the loveliest people @lovelymasks and @euripidestrousers . But this was actually such a hard thing to do. I don’t think I have a very good concept of the word boring. And every time people post these I feel like they are the most fun and interesting facts ever. But here I go.
1. I have a ridiculously high pain tolerance.
2. I’m clumsy as hell, and the number of scars on my hands and arms from cooking is also ridiculous.
3. For the longest I thought I’m not allergic to anything until like two years ago I found out that when your tongue feels itchy when you eat something, it’s because you’re allergic to it. Looks like I might be allergic to raw walnuts.
4. I hardly remember anything from my childhood.
5. I have a huge scented candle collection. Not because I collect them but because for some reason people always think of giving them to me and I never light them.
Anyway, this is it. I almost wanted to add one about my bad back as I am at the hospital with it at the moment, but that bored me to death.
Obligatory tag, but please don’t feel like you have to do any of these @ohyou-pretty-things @lemndrps @onehundredflamingos

Got tagged by @polaroidcats and @plecotusauritus to list 5 boring facts about me. Thanks for the tag my feline/airborne mutual!
Here we go:
I hate hanging and folding laundry with a visceral passion.
I love houseplants and am moderately good at keeping them alive 😊
My favorite kind of books to read are scenic muder mysteries without a protagonist-involving love story.
My favorite chocolate bar is anything resembling a bounty.
I love traveling as a concept but I get really homesick whenever I have to leave my apartment for longer than a day.
I hope this was sufficiently boring? I don't know what qualifies as a "boring" fact. I love all facts. I wanna know everything!!
No-pressure tagging @spooky-albi-bumblebee @lovelymasks @mycupofrum @loserboyfriendrjl and @casurlaub (if you want to)
GIVE ME YOUR FACTS! But np!

tell us 5 boring facts about yourself
thanks for the tag, @whostobelieve
I drink my water almost exclusively out of glass bottles like the ones you'd brew beer in. I have a bunch of them, and I'm known for it at work.
I have a suction cup Garfield in the back window of my car.
I love black olives and hate green ones.
I despise yard work.
I was a band geek in high school
why are boring facts harder to come up with than interesting ones?
am I meant to tag people? no pressure!

5 Boring Facts About Nyx!
Do you guys know how hard it is to remember my boring facts??? Tagged by @tearueful~
Tea has tagged me 1932990312903 times over the years and I rarely reply so this one is getting one. This may be a cheap number 1 though so I will elaborate-- I love that she tags me in things and sends me asks so much, but I get them only from her and we don't talk super often (we're both busy), so I save them all for when I need a tumblr iv straight to the brain of a reminder that people care about me.
I have an extremely crooked snaggletooth that everyone says is cute but I and my dentist know is causing problems but people keep saying it's cute and I need braces but PEOPLE KEEP SAYING IT'S CUTE but also it's chipped and hurts BUT PEOPLE CALL ME CUTE???????? ajdjskajkd
I miss drawing and painting so much but it hurts my hands now and nothing motivates me like it used to. One day. I gotta get me some art friends again. ;n; I miss my OCs so much.
The day bed in my office is my favorite part of my office~ My cozy, resting/reading corner with some plushes-- yes one of them is the 3ft long Axlotl from Build-a-Bear
This one is interesting because I haven't been confident sharing it-- I did a cosplay so good that the devs gave me a fucking custom steam deck and I cry every time I think about it.
I GOTTA TAG PEOPLE UHHHH uMMMM @zaethtalk (I know we've never talked but we're mutuals and I love your posts <3), @spacesharkadventures , @eldstunga (we talked a lot years ago and I always loved our convos about SW OC's and still <3 your posts), and ummmmm FUCK this is hard, tea, you're tearing me apart, and uhhh yeah fuck it, i can't think of more
#boring facts#tag game#one of the true tumblr experiences#i feel like some of these are kinda sad#oops

5 boring facts
about me. Thank you for the tag @squintclover :)
I was born by the sea, and can tell by the looks of a photo if it is "my sea" or another. I am constantly homesick for the low horizon.
With English not my native language, I start picking up pecularities from the people around me, which means, if I am with my Scottish relatives for too long, I sound kind of Scottish.
My first sewing project ever was a cuddly toy. It's still in use.
I use no hair dye and make-up, unless for VERY specific days.
I am a service snob. I will choose better service over superior quality.
No pressure tag @meloms-ao3 @missmoonfrost @flowerhawk-highinthesky & @severedreamerfox

tell us 5 boring facts about yourself tag game
Tagged by @b0oker18 thank you for the kind words!
1. My apartment building is a 5th floor walk-up and my office is a 4th floor walk up and I have a dog so I do a lot of stairs and yet they don’t get easier 😰
2. Ten years ago I read 50 books a year, not including rereads. In 2020 I read only 4 books (although I did read a lot of fanfic that year). This year I’m back up to 30 books, including rereads, which makes me happy.
3. I’m an architect and somehow I now own 50% of my company which means now I’m responsible for invoicing and payroll and retirement plans etc. They don’t teach you business stuff in architecture school 🤪
4. I don’t let my dog sleep in my bed except when we’re traveling because she insists on sleeping directly on top of me - she’s only 13 lbs, but still!
5. The most exciting thing I’ve done this fall is hire a cleaner, so I don’t have to spend all my free weekend time cleaning my apartment woohoo!

yeah we might be brothers in christ but so were cain and abel so shut the fuck up before i decide to find a rock about it
#postscript;#if you try to tell me cain and abel were not brothers in christ shut up pls#i've studied theology for nearly a decade. i know more than you.#christ's harrowing of hell exists to retroactively turn all of humanity even before his existence into ''brothers'' in christ#because it is not a literal term it is an evangelist term. bc christianity in all denominations is evangelistic in nature#not being a christian is 1. a moral incorrect choice according to them and#2. not actually possible. everyone is judged as a christian everyone is fundamentally supposed to be christian#calling someone a brother in christ is just calling them christian.#so ergo according to doctrine cain and abel are in fact brothers in christ#but#and this is far more important than any of that#i was not trying to be perfectly accurate to the theological timeline of the tanakh vs torah vs old testament vs new testament vs apocrypha#i was trying to make a silly one line joke on the internet#and all you do when you try to go Well Actually They Werent is make yourself look stupid and pedantic.#so for the love of god stop it with needing to be right online im so bored and tired

In the past, people in the Animal Crossing community would make fun of Tom Nook as a sleazy landlord. Since then, he's really rehabilitated his image as this 'heart of gold' businessman (he's the one who puts bells and furniture in trees for you to find! he adopted orphans! he donates to charity!), but New Horizons genuinely paints the most devious version of him.
He's successfully privatized settler colonialism: you pay HIM to move to a "deserted island" (which apparently the oceans in the AC world are just full of) and start a colony that he is directly invested in. At best he's running a weird vacation package scam (you arrive on the island with no money and in debt for "using his services"). At worst, he's using you to set up company towns. For god's sake, he literally has his own fake currency that he forces you to use to pay off your debt. But don't worry, he's repackaged it in a way that definitely doesn't sound like an MLM scam: the Nook Mileage Program!
You're no longer just his tenant or his temporary part-timer, you're his business lackey. The entire tutorial section of the game has you spending actual weeks running around completing tasks and doing hard labor to set up his colony. You're even tasked with preparing his properties and finding buyers for them. No, you aren't a tenant anymore. You work for the landlord. You are directly responsible for finding tenants for him. And he doesn't even fucking pay you. Not for setting up town hall and museum, or his nephew's shop –– which is the ONLY store on the entire island that sells necessities –– or bringing KK Slider to town, or helping populate his town. Not a single cent. No, actually, you have to pay HIM to BUY infrastructure like bridges and stairs and park benches. And all the while, he's telling you're the "resident representative"; you get to call the shots! That the reward is the community's progress. That what you're doing is in everyone's best interest (but most importantly, his).
Since NH's release, people have done a lot of legwork to say that Tom Nook isn't a capitalist while the game shows him at his very worst. He owns the only general store in town. You're forced to use a phone that he modified and branded as his own. Buy Nook-branded furniture and merchandise at the self-serve kiosk in the town hall, a governmental building! There's no conflict of interest here!
But hey, if you're tired of being the landlord/business mogul's goon, you can also find work as a deluxe resort home designer for a company that also pays you in their special company currency that can only be used to buy their products instead of a real salary! Because that's what the Animal Crossing franchise needs! More vacation homes!!!
#this is a really long winded way to say i really really really really hate new horizon's storyline and player role#i really hate that not only your house but the entire TOWN. the whole COMMUNITY you're a part of is owed to tom nook's business#i really hate the “vacation getaway package” angle because it shows just how commercialized the entire premise of nh is#and how lost the game is in its original core concept#animal crossing is about the experience of moving to a new town and becoming a part of that community#just to compare: all past ac games have a similar opening#you're on a bus or train or taxi to someplace new. a stranger strikes up a conversation and you get to know them before arriving#new horizons opens with you at customer service desk filling out an client application before a flight.#in prev games working for nook in the tutorial is meant to be demeaning. you want it to be over with so you can actually start living life#but in new horizons working for tom nook IS your life. and it's so rewarding! don't you feel rewarded?#you aren't a person. you aren't a new neighbor. you're tom nook's client. and then his unpaid employee. and the game insists it's fun to be#that's how void the game is#because it's bad enough that a rpg life sim got turned into a sandbox game where you have to build the town yourself#but the only reason why you're building it is because the landlord who you're in debt to TOLD you to build it.#everything is a rewards program! everything is a tour service! be sure to do your daily tasks to earn nook bucks to spend on nook merch!#that really sucks imo.#i mean. the entire game is based around the vacationing industry. of course it all feels fake and temporary. it's only a vacation.#long post#rant#not art#god the fact that your starter villagers can't even decide where to live you have to decide for them#i've never played a game that does the opposite of handholding#where instead it's the PLAYER who has to handhold the npcs through everything. and newsflash!! it's really exhausting and boring

let me tell you something, as a bitch who went viral for her cunty post about the met gala back in 2018: i will always, always, always tolerate ugliness so long as it’s undeniable that a choice was made. when it comes to celebrities paying through the nose to wear costumes and stunt, i want audacity. i want gull and i want gumption. lil nas x looks like the silver surfer got his hands on some nerds rope. pedrito has got his bare thighs out at the gig. doja is serving animorphs realness and you know what? i respect it. in fact, i adore it. because do you want to know what’s exponentially worse than being a lil ugly? being that rich and being that spoiled for wardrobe options and nevertheless committing the unforgivable sin of being boring !!
#met gala#let me tell you something the fact that these celebs will pay the equivalent of a mortgage to look BORING should be a criminal offense

'i hate jason grace because he thought he was worthy enough to compete with percy' I'm sorry have y'all SEEN jason. this man defeated a TITAN without weapons and his bare hands to the point the titan wanted to rise from the UNDERWORLD with the help of a GODDESS to seek vengeance over him. I think we can cut him slack for having some well deserved self respect bc I'd brag too wtf
#put some RESPECT on this guy's name. nobody is a more worthy competitor to percy than jason sorry not sorry I won't take arguments.#and has less experience with stuff because camp jupiter rarely had monster attacks so he was basically sheltered yet he was so strong#he saved percy UNDERWATER and defeated a SEA monster despite the whole zeus/poseidon thing. That only makes it difficult for him#and water isn't even his domain#yet y'all will call this 'gary stu behaviour' completely ignoring how op rick made percy. apparently only percy is allowed to be powerful??#he was trained by WOLVES as a 2 year old#before some mf goes 'theres no way jason defeated krios w just hands lol he was just boasting for the sake of it'. krios said it himself 💀#ironically jason was wayy too humble considering the stuff he's done lol he NEVER bragged and neither did percy#fandom when a character who has actually accomplished great stuff has an ounce of self respect and self awareness: 😠🔪🔪#it's not even 'i hate jason bc he's arrogant/powerless/boring' atp#it's just 'im too attached to percy to like any other person who's on his level and can't accept the fact that percy has a powerful rival'#pjo#pjo fandom#percy jackson#pjo series#pjo hoo#jason grace#pjo hoo toa
