On average, what is the total MONTHLY amount that you spend on dining out*?
*(This doesn't only count going out to restaurants, but also stuff like picking up fast food to bring home, getting a coffee on the way to work, getting a premade sandwich from a grocery store deli during lunch, buying a quick snack from a convenience store or food cart whilst walking somewhere, ordering a pizza or any other food to be delivered to your home, etc.)
*(If you often dine out in groups/as a household: calculate and divide the costs so that you get a Per Person average. This is for YOU individually, NOT the total household/group costs)
(I'm sure polls similar to this have been made before (very common topic), I just haven't personally seen one that I can remember, so, I was curious to do my own! I was discussing this with a group of people today and it was very interesting to see how widely the number varied between individuals. :0c )
(Reblog for bigger sample size if you can, and feel free to explain your answer in tags if there's anything extra to add!)
#polls#tumblr polls#I'm mostly in the 0/1 - 25$ category. Maybe the rare month is a bit over $25 if there's something specific going on like birthday.#Which I'm NEVER eating in an actual restaurant (erm... covid... plus I just hate restaurant environments. i would rather pickup#the food and bring it home to a peaceful quiet environment that I control lol). But more typically like stopping by a grocery store deli#section or something. I don't have coffee that much. And I can't eat fast food much due to my health issues/diet restriction stuff#so if I'm out like coming back from an appointment and I start feeling really sick and weak. I know that a hamburger will just#blow up my system and cause nausea or something. So I try to pick the breadiest most#neutral looking turkey sandwich at the safeway deli to eat during the hour ride home or whatever lol#I actually kind of wish I could do stuff like get food more often vecause it would take the burden of cooking everything off of me#but.. alas... Money... and Health Things... T o T#I still wouldn't do it ALL the time but like... once a week instead of once a month or something.. or maybe turning into a coffee#person.. I do love drinks A LOT .. i am a drink person who will have 5 different drinks sipping on at all times#But i just have to make them all myself mostly lol#And I cant really have too much coffee since it will make me sick. so like.. teas and juice mostly#When I inevitably become a millionaire by never using social media never networking and only finishing one#sculpture every 5 months which I dont even post about or sell - then I shall... get more drinks..#I will somehow wean my body onto coffee and drink one a day solely for the ritual of it#Though even then... I would still probably just like.. buy the mateirals to make it at home or something#Like if you had a million dollars you could just buy a kitchen grade ice cream machine and other stuff to make your own milkshakes and#coffees and smoothies and bubble teas. Genuinely I think even if I were a BILLIONAIRE I would still look at playing likr $8 for a single#coffee and go .. uh.... I could just buy the equipment to make this and then save that money. PLUS. its in my house now so no need to#have to leave. I can make my own drinks in the comfort of home. .. ideal..#Like no matter how rich I ever got I would still have the lingering scroogey stinginess. like i am NOT paying for that. I will jus#make it myself. Especially if it was an Everyday thing. Anythign thats part of my routine I try to optimize and make as efficient as#possible... ANYWAY.. In an IDEAL world I would get treats. but probably not that much. as on a daily basis it would start to get#to me and I would just save up to buy kitchen machinery if I was rich lol

working in a factory has you thinking so much about the insane chain of labor & transport that goes into making literally anything
#like first you realize that You are making & doing things that you previously had thought - if you'd thought abt it at all - were automated#& you become incredibly aware of how all the materials you're working with came from somewhere - these plastic clips are from france; this#fabric is from india etc. and that there are people in factories there making those things and that they are also probably getting their#materials from somewhere#one of the little things that makes me think about this the most is we have these 50m rolls of cotton banding we see onto canvas & nets#and in theory it should be all one piece but sometimes it's actually two pieces which you discover when you get far enough in the roll and#find that there's a join where it's been stitched together by hand (!). which is a little annoying bc we can't use that bit so you have#to cut that but out & stitch it together again on the machine which interrupts what you were sewing before & slows you down But it's so#striking to me bc like it's really easy to look at this banding & it's so exactly the same & obviously machine made it's Really easy to#forget that there are people there running these machines. who notice there's a break & have to stop what they're doing & get a needle &#thread and stitch it together. by hand! like someone somewhere has handled exactly where I'm touching it & i don't even know where in the#world they are!#the other place this happens is often on the selvedge edge of the fabric there's writing in pencil i don't know ye meaning of but evidently#was important to the process somewhere & someone wrote that out#idk like it's really easy to watch those videos of really specific machines in factories & convince yourself that everything is automated#but the truth is the vast majority of stuff is not & is made by people doing that. & even when it is there are people running those machine#<- and i'm not saying this in a soppy way tbc. this whole system is a nightmare of exploitation & to some degree I'm just continually amaze#by how insane this whole process is & also how completely un-transparent it is unless you are made to think abt it#another thing is noticeable when you look at our orders that most of what we sell isn't to customers it's to shops who then sell to custome#which then makes you think like. those plastic clips from france are they actually made in france or are we just buying them from france?#are they actually made by underpaid people in a country the name of which is completely lost to the chain of production at this point#anyways none of this is new it's just when you are working in a factory using this stuff you start wondering like.#what's the factory like that the person who stitched this banding together like. what's their day like there#wish we could talk abt how fucked up this all is - for them especially probably - together#thoughts

* My brothers never seen a human before
I dont personallyyyy think the college thing is gonna happen with Papyrus (for several reasons-) BUT THAT DOESN’T MEAN I DON’T ENJOY IT A LOT 😭 Him, Asriel, and Frisk all being buddies is really cute.
I DO think Papyrus and Asriel should/could definitely have a/some fun interaction in Deltarune when they both pop up….eventually…
And just Frisk being in Deltarune is something I feel like everyone would enjoy-
Im also a supporter of the Papyrus Is The Knight guild, and I will DIE on this hill until im either proven wrong and I shamefully drag my feet to AO3 where I am forced to dream of what could have been, or proven right and get to freak out about it for the next 30 years of my life. What a butterfly effect
#I promise i can draw Noelle and Kris better I just wanted to do it poorly for the bit leave me be…#Papyrus Deltarune#Papyrus Deltarune college#Asriel Deltarune#Frisk Deltarune#Asriel and Kris#Siblings#siblings are my favorite trope#man I wish siblings were real#I wish brothers were real#I wish skeletons were real#noelle holiday#noelle deltarune#kris deltarune#kris dreemurr#undertale fanart#Papyrus Frisk and Asriel are all wearing swag#theyd totally hang out at the mall and not buy anything#except for use one of the little horse riding machines with some change they found on the floor#fluff#someone write that on Ao3 PLEASE#ill pay by making sure Papyrus will be the main character in chapters 3-7#ill talk to toby#we’re friends#i prommy#you can trust me#papyrus having disproportionate eye sockets my beloved#asriel being fluffy my beloved#frisk having the most disrespectful bangs my beloved

bee: 𝚠heeljack, im so sorry about this but do you mind repeating the time-stakingly long introduction, instruments, research references, modules, hypothesis, counter thesis, procedures, analysis, second - retrial, results, & explanation that you just spent 700000 earth hours saying because i was busy drawing a cute little bee in the corner of my notes please :] ?
wheeljack:
idw bee trying to run a planet that fucking hates him is just rlly funny to me, especially since everyone views bee as the goody character who everyone loves & he views himself as that & then they finally win this consuming war & he can reap his rewards of being loved without holding a gun & no one fucking likes him. hes even getting on his own old team's nerves & not in the loveable scamp way but the get the fuck out of my face way
#everybody regarding bee during the war: aw cute lil guy! bringing some positivity to this cruel war!! his goofups are so sparkwarming#it's ok lil guy!! we will always support u at the end of the day bcs u remind us of our sparks inside & love is rea-#everybody regarding bee constantly fucking up on how to run a wholeass planet: WHAT THE FUCK IS WRONG WITH YOU#he was just a scout trying to do his best to appease optimus and now hes a bitch still trying to appease optimus for some reason#wheeljack: so i set these tools aside to route a waste system whenever you're ready to establish that legally & ill get to bui-#bumblebee: CAN WE HAVE A TIME MACHINE SO I DONT K*LL MYSELF :D ??#wheeljack: ....... we need a waste system due to disturbed population disrespecting your rules & this planet is getting worse &#bumblebee: please primus wheeljack i Dont know what youre Saying i just want my DaMn tiMeMacHine so people will LiKe mE!!!!#wheeljack: im gonna kill you .#scout bee: grahh who does that guy think he is >:[ im gonna go kick his BUTT!!! being mean to my FRIEND! grah!

so who wants to move to my city & get a house with me
#drinking a beer and looking kind of hot and yet the machine ceaselessly churns#my housemate moved in with me bc she got unhoused and now she’s buying this house and i am being unhoused#and her gf is moving in#i want to stomp and scream i was here first !#but realistically if she didn’t buy it someone else would and we’d both have to move#the complexity is kind of hard i feel resentful about it but if i were in my 30s with a stable relationship & made good money & wanted to#start a family maybe i’d do the same yknow#idk i just feel like nothing gets to be mine & im feeling bitter#i just don’t want to have a landlord or lease again#maybe i can use this as a way to live out some dreams but i’m like. bitter and dreamless these days (working on it) so it’s hard to find#any footing in imagination or hope#where am i going. i’m 27 and have no clue where i’m headed or what i want at all#and things are just about to get harder and that’s true and i can’t avoid it

I think ive got a good idea for my next warm knit--wool legwarmers that go up to the thigh. I'd only be wearing them in my wheelchair so I'm hoping them staying up wont be an issue. I was initially thinking long underwear but I think I could eliminate most of the need for washing by just ... not doing a crotch ? Also idk how to knit a crotch anyway, and it's my legs that get horribly cold. I have quite a lot of pink laceweight millspun wool that I think should be enough. Very excited to get started on it... basically will just be a long tube with increases so it should be easy enough.
#this post brought to you by me waiting outside the yarn store for it to open#didnt realize they dont open til noon on sundays and i left at like 10 lol#went to goodwill and a coffee shop to pass the time but i still ended up sitting outside waiting#gonna try and find some yarn for a hat for my favorite coworker#i dont think im making anything else for my other coworkers or if i do it will be very small#but my favorite coworker is extremely sweet and definitely merits a hat. also she used to knit before arthritis#so i think she will appreciate it. but im not sure she'd handwash wool so im buying something machine washable#or at least I want to#if i cant find anything i will knit her a wool hat#but id rather make one she will wear#i think i might knit little little snails for my other coworkers ? like tiny ones#maybe maybe not. a snowflake decoration would also not be too bad to crochet#i have too many coworkers and too bad of hands to make them all hats#i like them all a lot but. hand pain lol#anyway this long ramble is brought to you by Waiting For The Yarn Store To Open#knitting

took the longarm quilting certification class at the fabric store today!
very excited to start whittling down my pile of quilt tops and start a new pile of actual finished quilts
#quilting#also got to hear some fun anecdotes about the lady from the longarm manufacturer who Did Not understand my local fabric store’s demographics#no ma’am you are not going to convince the apartment-dwelling millennials who shop here to buy a $5000 machine in one class#it needs its own dedicated room and we have housemates who are using those

Finally got my phone battery replaced today, but they must have gotten adhesive or something on the inner camera cover because this is what the photo quality is like now 🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
It's too late in the day to go back and ask them to fix it now (by the time I get over there the shop would be closed) so I'm going to have to go back again tomorrow to see if they can clean it or if I'm just screwed out of a camera function now.
#phone issues#this fucking SUCKS#one of the two biggest reasons I opted out of buying a new phone was because I was concerned about memory space for photos#because new phones fucking suck and don't have extra slots for additional memory via microSD cards#and even without considering using it for OF sets I use it regularly for work and other project purposes as well#no functional camera means I can't take photos of items when work wants me to go buy a specific machine part or office supply or something#means I can't easy take quick shots of my workscreens when I need to jump back and forth between a bunch of different pages of information

Okay but why did they never have any holiday themed POI episodes?
More specifically, how come they never had a Halloween episode and played “Somebody’s Watching Me” by Rockwell in the background?
#THEY MISSED AN EXCELLENT OPPORTUNITY THATS ALL#BUT ALSO CHRISTMAS#SANTA CLAUS IS COMIN TO TOWN PLAYING AND FINCH AND REESE GIVE EACH OTHER A SIDE EYE WITH ‘HE SEES YOU WHEN YOURE SLEEPING HE KNOWS WHEN—‘#LIKE CMON#also I wanted a team machine secret santa gift exchange in the midst of all the Samaritan craziness#like Reese gets Shaw - Shaw gets Root - Root gets Finch - Finch gets Reese#I’d picture Reese gifting Shaw the keys to his old motorcycle#(cuz he’s a cop now and doesn’t use it)#and it’s in a small box so at first Shaw’s like ‘this better not be a necklace’ and he’s like ‘just open it’#and they’re all aloof and it’s funny but also touching#then I picture Shaw just gifting herself to Root like#*slaps a bow on her head* ‘for the next twenty four hours we can do whatever you want’#and idk they have a girls day (you know getting their nails done - shopping for shoes - going to the gun range - making out - etc)#Root gifts Finch a rare painting or smth sentimental to him like that#but she tries to do it without like stealing anything (to ease his conscience)#(she’s mostly successful)#‘relax Harry I bought this. with money.’ ‘your money?’ ‘…’ ‘it was your money right??’#and idk what Finch gets Reese but I imagine it’s both sentimental and practical so he can use it often#and they have another ‘thanks for giving me a purpose’ moment and it’s gay as hell and we’re all happy#and they all pitch in and buy Fusco some funny ties or smth#and Bear gets lots of toys and treats cuz he’s the best boi#wow uh#you know what I’m not deleting all that imma just keep it in but just to recap this was about Halloween and a funny song they could’ve used#person of interest#poi#john reese#harold finch#sameen shaw#root#🎶song sings🎶

clover plushie planning???
don't get me wrong, i adore my clover plushie designed by gingerkingfisher, but i think it'd be fun to make my own! she is my favorite ii character, after all!! (the more the merrier haha)
say, does anyone have any tips for making the body nice and solid? i don't want her head to droop, and i imagine it'd be on the heavier side considering how large it'd be. i'd want to put wire in her arms anyway so they'd be posable, so maybe i could also put wire in her body?? not sure... and yeah she'd be more stable if she were smaller, but i want her to be cuddly :)
the head would be two pieces, front and back (the pattern would be made by tracing four of the leaf pattern). the body could either just be front and back like the head, or with a circular piece on the bottom too for shape (the arms and legs would be sewn into the side body seams). either way, i'd want to attach the body to the middle of the back of her head, as that's where the stem would reasonably attach to the leaves - but that might contribute to the drooping i was worrying about. her face details would all be sewn on, cuz i'm bad at embroidery :P
if you have any tips/suggestions, i'd love to hear them! thanks!! <3
#dandy's doodles#<- i guess?#inanimate insanity#ii#ii clover#aaaaugh she'd be so cute!! i could buy plushie fabric and make her all nice in my mom's sewing machine#say... what did jnj use to make their flower plushie not droopy? cuz she has a big head and a long body too#i want to make a nice big sturdy clover plushie to play with... to smooch on the head...#i'm also considering making little butterflies and having some way for them to attach to her. like magnets maybe?

the full email is posted here but this paragraph from rachel corrie's last email to her mother in 2003 before she was killed by an israeli bulldozer is absolutely fucking harrowing over 20 years later.
I look forward to seeing more and more people willing to resist the direction the world is moving in: a direction where our personal experiences are irrelevant, that we are defective, that our communities are not important, that we are powerless, that the future is determined, and that the highest level of humanity is expressed through what we choose to buy at the mall.
#it's devastating#especially watching discourse around boycotts as the worst case scenario unfolds.#but i think allies need to hear her more now than ever...#i've seen discussion surrounding motaz calling us useless#and it's true.#not in a self-centered sense of personal guilt#but in that we have been made to believe that we are powerless to resist this#that eventually the embers of peoples' effort will die#that we have no say in our government#but we do#you do#i dont even live in the USA anymore but i can still buy e-sims and stand firm in my beliefs#even if it means constantly learning about more atrocities and constantly arguing and defending my stance#the work must be tireless when you rage against a machine#it might not feel like much... but it's honest work.
