this week has been fucking awful I just wanna lay down somewhere quiet w my gf and cats. holy shit
#1. my painful wisdom tooth was found to have gnarly intricate hook that’s already grown into my sinus cavity.#so. removal and recovery and cost are going to make me explode already#2. my cat the next day was diagnosed with an aggressive type of cancer after we found a mass under her tongue that can’t be removed.#and is not realistic in cost vs the fact it’ll probably keep returning since it’s an area that’s difficult to fully remove.#she’s having a harder time eating and it’s just reminding me of the same thing that happened to my extremely beloved childhood cat.#same thing happened to her until she was just bones and couldn’t stop drooling. it’s so painful to feel the life leaving something you love#3. our motherfucking upstairs neighbor’s god damn water heater broke and flooded all the apts under but we’re directly underneath.#bro I woke up to water pouring from our CEILING LIGHTS and cracks all over the ceiling. I had to physically smash the smoke alarm#ripped it from the ceiling since it’s ceiling socket was LEAKING but it shorted out and wouldn’t stop so I ripped the battery out#our carpet and shit is all torn up now with industrial fans and dehumidifiers. but it’s scaring my sick cat to not eating. it’s so sad#4. a towing place I forfeited my old ruined car to keeps sending notarized legal letters about it ending up In Situations.#despite the fact I signed it all completely over and it’s no longer my responsibility#there’s more but I’m tired of typing all this shit#coffee shop forgot to give me my donut and the coffee tasted bad too. that part isn’t any big deal at all lol it just made me start crying

bring back dumbass aus for stuff .. pls ..
borderlands but they're all neighbors and that's it . that's the thing. They all live in like the same city but there's different like streets and communities/districts and so there's like Hyperion Park that's this closed gate neighborhood and there's like Atlas Crest and then like. pandora is like the slums or something
borderlands city AU when guys when
#jack runs the HOA in the Hyperion area but he gets lazy about it like all the time#also this opens way for a lot of other aus too#coffee shop? of course#tattoo shop and florist? coming right up#in my mind they all live in a modern city ok#genuinely tho its some dumb idea I decided to put into words#but I do love it#its a fun concept to make it all like..#idk#they can still even have all their violence and craps#gangs do exist in cities!#now that I think about it#its just borderlands but not in space and also modern#so not futuristic#plus a little more domestic#ok I've rambled on enough#if anyone else has ideas for stuff for this put it in tags or reblogs#I'd love to hear add ons :3333#borderlands#borderlands 2#tales from the borderlands#borderlands 3#borderlands the pre sequel#borderlands au

Applying to an apartment with little income and terrible credit score, in hopes that they'll be desperate enough to take me
#im not even getting my hopes up for this one folks#but this same company rook me when i had no rental history so maybe?#unlikely for the aforementioned piss poor income and credit score#im just praying they remember me feom when i used to rent from them and liked me enough then to take me again#the bathroom is not in the apartment btw#that's the wildest thing. like its a basic studio with a kitchen closet and main area#but you have to go across the hall. to the private bathroom#im hoping they realize that thats wild and give me the apartment#i neeeeed to leave my parents house. and i really miss that city the apartment is in#i wish there was a little essay section where i could tell the landlord how much i like the city#and that ill get a better job once i live there and my parents are going to pay my first month and security deposit#that would be nice#i applied knowing that i won't get it but also knowing that i cant get it if i dont try#mostly i just miss that city#there was a really nice coffee shop within walking distance of my apartment#(the apartment i applied to is next door to the building i used to live in so same area which is great)#but i didnt have wifi so i would go there a lot to do work. it was so cozy in the winter especially#and i went on a lot of walks. so i wiuld swing by there and grab a drink to sip on my walk#and it was literally within sight of a great lake. a literal great lakw of Michigan lol#i loved walking along the lake on a nice day. or a windy day and just watch the waves crash#and my favorite band is feom that city so i got to see so many of their performances. and theyre a small band so the most i ever paid#was $50 and that was for the vip package. i saw them for $10 once. and free once. and $50 for the vip#its a big art and music city and i love it so much. i miss it so fucking much and i regret leaving#but at least it made me realize that no other city is for me. that city is my home#oh and it was literally right next to a bug beautiful library that i loved to wander. i still have my library card from there#mostly used it to print stuff and you have to pay at the box next to the printer. and one time i forgot to pay. i still feel bad about that#but i dont want to reminisce too much cuz i know i wont get it#im trying to pay off my credit cards to bring up my credit score but its slow going#its much nearer my gf and all my friends so i would love to live near them. rn im hours away from about everyone i love#i ran out of tags. maybe pray for me if you pray? or just hope for me. i dont want to let myself want this but its there

The hipsters are truly descending on Leith. I thought this flavour of waxed moustache striped shirt pocket watch and sunglasses Coolest Kids At The Warehouse Rave Mr B fucker died out in like 2012 but no they're everywhere. moustaches waxed up to the heavens tweed in 26° spring weather.
my going theory now is that this style of hipster is just an inevitable symptom of gentrification at any point in history. assume when Londinium was first becoming a metropolis it was beset by moustachioed men in pinstripe toga with pocket sundials. twats.
#red said#it's possible that my kneejerk reaction to hipsters is itself a 2012 hangover#BUT. COUNTERPOINT. I feel exactly as strongly about the previous rounds of Gentrification Symptoms#which is to say: a proliferation of grey-decor coffee shops with industrial lighting fittings selling £4 coffees (~6 years ago)#an onrush of pricy vintage shops and independent art galleries (~4 years ago)#a rise of plant shops and plant themed cafes all decorated with endless monstera (~2 years ago)#and the current realisation that i can't fucking get a fryup in more than 3 places on this street bc everywhere is a goddamn brunch spot#selling £8.50 eggs on toast#meanwhile most of the independent grocers are shutting there's no more greasy spoons#oh and rent in the area has Literally Doubled at the lowest end. a 2 bed used to be in the 450-600 pcm range#now almost everything even the kind of dive i was in for £550 is £1k+ a month#instead of building more affordable housing they're building more student housing#and the vibe has changed. like ppl used to be extremely drunk and high but also very nice and i never felt unsafe here#that's still true but it's getting less true

I just came back from a day round-trip road trip with a friend sooo... take my headcanons about going to Zuzu City with the ✨️businessmen✨️ for a day trip!
[DISCLAIMER: These are romantic leaning headcanons for the two rival businessmen in Pelican Town. As with all my headcanons, they're based off my modded version of the game which in includes Stardew Expanded and the Marry Morris mod. These also being under the pretenses that Caroline eventually leaves Pierre (thus making him a bachelor again) because she deserves better... With that being said, please enjoy!]
🌃 Morris:
● He will make sure you know you won't need to pay for anything
○ He'll even let you ride in his purple panther
● No food or drinks inside though, that car is his baby, dude
○ The trip will consist of casual chit chat and him venting about Joja Mart and his employees and even give you the juicy gossip of what some of the customers are up to
● "Oh! Dear, you'll never guess who stopped in to buy some makeup Pierre doesn't carry for her daughter..." (He'll give you a hint, it wasn't Pam or Robin...)
○ He'll ramble on and on about his days in the city when he was still in college, just starting off at Joja Mart, or when he lived there (that is, if you two were married and he was living with you on the farm at this point)
● He will tell you all his favorite places in the city, most of the restaurants and shops are rather upper-middle or high class though
○ Once in the city he'll make sure you're always at his side and help to ease any anxiety with his confidence in having lived in the city for a while
● "Ah yes, this is the café I used to frequent when I was still merely a grunt for Joja Mart. Heh, did you know they sell spiked drinks here after 6?" He'll lean in and pull his glasses down as he asks this, giving you his sly smile that only a fat cat like him could pull off
○ He'll take you through the shopping centers and insist you pick something you like. Oh you want that shirt? He'll make sure to buy you pants that'll go well with it. And while he's at it, why not get a tie or some other accessories to make it complete? And don't forget the shoes as well! Oh, that's made from the finest silk? Perfect, nothing less for his dearest companion.
• At the end of the day in this city he'll ask what you're feeling like food-wise
○ No matter what you say, he'll have the perfect place
● "No need for worrying about the price" He'll assure you as you're looking over the menu
○ And when the night starts closing in? He'll take you on a walk in the most gorgeous part of the city
● Before you leave he may even rizz you up a little by throwing some cunning lines your way
○ "You know it's funny, in all my years of living here I'd never thought I'd have someone so gorgeous to share it with." Or whatever else he may have the opportunity to say
● While getting back into his car, he'll open your door for you. Both because he's a gentleman but also because he doesn't trust anyone to open and close the doors of his fancy car
○ He'll make sure your comfortable, have everything you want or need, and drive you both back to your farm
● "This was the best day I've had in a while, thank you (Y/N)." He'll say after arriving back at your place, leaning in to leave a soft kiss upon your lips.
🌇 Pierre:
● This man leaves the trust-box (as I call it) for any passive shoppers and GETS GOING
○ "You got everything you need? Phone, keys, wallet?" He'll go down the checklist with you like he's taking you on a vacation for a week or something.
● He has every possibility budgeted for
○ Once the tickets are paid for, you two will hop on the bus to ✨️Zuzu City✨️
● On the bus ride there, you two will talk a little, he'll discuss his plans for his store, sales, etc- just make small talk with you
○ Eventually you two will reach the city and from there it's go time
● "So I was thinking we could start the day off strong with coffee from this café I read about in the paper a few weeks ago. Then we should be able to take a cab to the museum and then-" He'll go on and on about the plans he made to a T.
○ You'll only manage to actually do like... three of the 6 or 7 things he'd planned. But the important things were tackled!
● He'd insist on avoiding shopping and rather go more for sight seeing and memorable experiences instead
○ He'll take you to a café first, as promised (that poor man desperately needs his coffee), then the museum, and then after that he'll take you on a walk through the park
● Between the museum and the park, time will pass rather quickly for you two
○ Without a doubt, he'll always at one point or another manage to either wrap his arm around your shoulders or (depending on your height) use your shoulder as an arm rest
● As your walk in the park turns more into just sitting and talking in the park, his eyes are ever-tired yet surprisingly attentive as he listens to your every word
○ He'll look down sadly as the conversation comes to a lull. "Hey, (Y/N)... I know I haven't gotten the chance to say so yet but... I just wanted to say thank you for helping me through my divorce with Caroline."
• This would lead to a more intimate moment between the two of you before you two realize how hungry you are
○ He'll suggest convenience food from a fast food place or pizza. But if he knows you also enjoy seafood he'll try to not-so-subtly suggest a few different restaurants in the area
● "I've heard great things about this place. ... Hm? No, I'm sure it'll be fine. For you, I don't mind paying extra for a nice meal. You have to treat yourself once in a while, right?" He'll assure you with a soft smile.
○ At dinner, you'll order as if you were paying for yourself, since he usually insists on separate checks due to financial reasons, not to mention he's too proud to ever let you pay for him... even if you are more financially stable than he is
● But when he gets up and asks if you're ready to leave when you've finished your meals and had a delightful time together, you can't help but ask "what about the checks???"
○ ...That scumbag secretly paid for the both of you when you weren't around. (And yes, he also left a nice tip for the waitstaff)
● He'll hold your hand as he guides you back to the busstop
○ "So, how did you like our day together?" He'll glance at you with cunning eyes and give your hand a gentle, loving squeeze
● The bus ride home ends with your head on his shoulder as you drift off to sleep on the way back to Pelican Town
○ This man will bring that day up for years to come, always reminiscing on it like it was one of the best days of his life
#I'm so tired... 1 day road trips are fun but exhausting...#I hope these turned out okay...#Also I based that cafe thing off a real coffee shop in my local area that actually sells spiked drinks after a certain time#Legally of course#I hope you all enjoy#I do take requests and suggestions too!#Pierre sdv#Morris sdv#Pierre Stardew Valley#Morris Stardew Valley#Pierre#Morris#Joja Co#sdv#stardew valley#sdv hcs#Stardew headcanons#Maxwell_MTV

i survived my first professional conference and learned that the most evil thing about networking… is… it’s kinda good……
#it’s like oh i am meeting other people who do my same or similar job and finding out who is cool and who i want to talk shop with#and maybe even be friends with?!#also it was a multidisciplinary healthcare provider thing so also i am personally meeting people who i can refer my clients to#and i get to like. vet their vibes. like oh i have a client who’s looking for a new therapist rn and they’d really get along with you!#anyway. i met another person with my name who is also autistic and has a different job but similar specialty areas#and we’re gonna get coffee#oh also i’m still new to this profession so the weirdest part was meeting so many strangers who already knew who i was?!#this professional community is small and this was just a local event. and. i’m still the only black person with this job in this specialty 🥴#oh and i also did an unrelated work drinks thing at a bar after and it was fun!#anyway ANYWAY. look at me bein grown 🤠

it's really irritating and difficult to live my life sometimes and for what? not striving to accomplish any huge goals here but the tiny ones, are also excruciating,
#why couldn't i have been born with a fixation that makes me incredible at math or computer science#then i could at least keep the money rolling in#who cares if you eat dinner at 1 am or struggle through basic decisions and interactions if you've got that cash money.#then you're just eccentric#there's like whole social & economic theories devoted to this i'm aware#but sometimes it's like. okay i understand that socially we have decided to do things earlier in the day not my fault for hating that#but i also would like to see the sun. i would like to visit coffee shops and take pleasant strolls and have friends in my area#and do little tasks and contribute in some way to my society#and i would like to do all of this without playing 5d chess to work around the whole way that i am#i have projects of my own you know! and then i'll do one social thing and just be like a zombie the rest of the day#i forgot to get a working microwave today. how do you forget to solve the same problem you've been having for a week and a half again#what? it's just empty space in there#sometimes it strikes you eating dinner at 1 am that maybe you are the messy bitch#self love through the other or something

If I can like. Get good at it + get over my issues with talking to people I might just become a barista idk.
#art talks about stuff#there's a good number of both chain + local coffee shops/bakeries in my area so#the biggest issue is the whole standing up for long periods of time which is kind of impossible for me at least rn

Looking at the rich girls from my school having their own party buses for their birthdays and going to fancy restaurants 😭😭 last year I invited three people to my house and we played Mario kart with my drifting joycons and had to peel out wax paper from in between the cake layers because my dad accidentally left it on while he frosted it and I had the time of my life.
#it’s so odd being surrounded by rich people#it kinda comes with the area I live in tbh but like. good GOD#girls who get seven dollar coffee every day and don’t have a job. girls who can buy 300 dollar concert tickets.#it just makes me kind of bitter. like I see these girls in the thrift shops where I get my clothes and it’s like#oh so now thrifting is cool and stuff. let me get my three dollar jeans ok. I can’t afford new ones like you guys can#sorry this is a total bitter rant#I’m friends with some rich people that r really awesome but it’s so strange
