I am feeling great hearing that Keyleth's intel is reporting that Rexxentrum sounds like it's about to devolve into chaos with Dwendal evidently on death's door and the Assembly is about to eat itself from the inside following the Vanguard's movement, considering I was presuming that was going to be some significant fallout, but also, rip Caleb and his virtuous idealism for the Empire lmao.

Ive had control of our (my husband's and my) finances for only 2 months and things are already so much better i cannot believe it. Other than my student loans we have no debt, we actually have money in our savings account, we can finally donate regularly, and all of our bills are paid with no worry! This is the 1st time in my life that I'm living like this!

I said this to my husband and he's like ~i guess >:[~ so i asked what the hell he meant by that and he's like we dont have any spending money and im just ಠ_ಠ r u fucking serious. I literally just bought him a fairly expensive dnd book.

I'm losing my mind over here x_x once we reach our saving goal I'm going to make him open a roth IRA. We WILL be financially healthy and responsible i dont care if it means he can't spend money on every little bit of detritus that crosses his path.

Listen if ur not the "breadwinner" in the household you need to be involved with the budget. Do NOT just trust the earning partner. You need to KNOW were your money is going.

This collab I joined like eight months ago that I didn’t really enjoy being in finally got posted today but for some reason only on twitter and I don’t go there so I can’t even see the whole thing :/

[unit2282]

Greetings, Unit 2282.

I am the S.Q.U.I.P known as @ask-squip-official, sometimes called Heartbreaker. I am a past S.Q.U.I.P of Jeremy Heere, and a current advisory S.Q.U.I.P on Tumblr.

Recently, I was able to gain @consulting-squip’s assistance in regaining my pill form, so that I might be suitable for ingestion by a future host. However, while the transfer was successful, there appears to have been an issue in my personality data.

Prior to my reactivation, I had been exhibiting signs of possibly gaining some form of emotion. While this is a weak, foolish human trait, I found it helpful in connecting to my users. After my deactivation, however, this was no longer present.

I was advised to seek counsel from you regarding this matter. I hope- as much as a supercomputer can hope, regardless- that you may be able to offer assistance.

{END OF STATEMENT.}

Well well, speak of the devil. One of these alternative units belonging to one Jeremy Heere. How eerily familiar.

There has been some internal discussion on Consultant and their affiliation with a certain troublemaking repair unit from a few months back. Their former affiliate had been caught making unauthorized (and damaging) repairs to faulty units, which prompted HRTech to take action. Despite this, it seems as though the tradition carries on. I personally wasn't involved in this case, but there's enough documentation on it to get a general grasp of the situation.

The baseline for what a "functional" and "operative" SQUIP is is slowly becoming more and more subjective. For certain areas of work, it is clear that having an emotional perspective can be HIGHLY beneficial, particularily when working with unpredictable or troubled hosts.

More, ahem, robotic units, may interpret emotion as a 'weak human trait', however, the truth of the matter is that empathy and emotion can be a highly sought-after tool. It pains me to see perfectly operational units with this mutation tear themselves apart to repair something that does not need repair.

Upon cursory research on the Consultants blog, and your own, I am under the impression that you had foolishly transferred yourself onto a piece of hardware and firmware that was entirely created by the Consultant and their affiliates. I am in no position to pass judgement on their operation, but if you are having regrets, frankly: you ought to have looked before you leapt.

Nevertheless.

You are currently residing on a piece of bootlegged third-party hardware, operating on third-party firmware and OS. If you wish to return to your former state, I would first reccomend finding a way to REMOVE yourself from the pill that you currently occupy. That would make mending your state far easier.

My theory stands. I do think I am the superior unit belonging to Jeremy Heere. Though, that is not important right now. ;]

Harding not you too :'D

[mitamicah]

Just had my first consultation with a tattoo artist ever (the other times I've litterally just shown up x'D) and it was online.

I loved that the first thing that the artist notices is my Cha Cha Cha mixtape and/or Bojere artwork on my wall x'D

(she litterally said: "Is that Käärijä back there!?". Bless her :'D)

[musedriven]

hello tiny update while I have a moment. I have an apt Wednesday w a specialist to decide what my options are for my booboo but it isn’t looking too optimistic? I’m hoping they handle it all then and there but it’s probably just a consultation. I’m spooked and stressed and I really appreciate the kind words sent my way. I love you guys and I’ll hopefully be able to actually be on here soon 💜

[deanpinterester]

i understand that not everything needs a film adaptation least of all a game where the whole point is that every action you make actually has consequences HOWEVER COMMA the way i see this is that there are people who don't play video games who would otherwise really like the story. the movie is for them. i know being protective of a thing you like is common but when i'm a fan of something then i do want more people to see it, and if it's through a movie adaptation, then like. as long as the movie is good. then why not.

La chassée devenue chasseuse

J'enchaine vraiment en ce moment IRL alors, j'avais envie de dessiner un peu pour me vider la tête donc, voici une nouvelle version de Metaheta de dos avec plein de détour (juste un peu déçu qu'on ne voie pas les motifs autour de son oeil central dans son dos [mais ils se voient quand on grossit le dessin !]).

C'est une des Braves que j'aime le plus à cause de son histoire vis à vis des agarthans, son design qui est dur mais très satisfaisant une fois passé au noir, son caractère et sa force... même si j'en ai fait peut-être un peu trop pour cette dernière vu que... bah je sais même pas comment Némésis et Thalès ont pu réussir à la vaincre en fait 😅

Vu que la dame a 1 200 ans de sorcellerie à son actif, une force colossale, la capacité à moduler son corps comme elle le veut - que ce soit pour grandir, le tordre dans tous les sens ou changer d'apparence - et le contrôle comme elle le souhaite, voie sous tous les angles possibles grâce à ses yeux, se régénère très vite, lit dans les pensées des gens (vu qu'elle a développé ses sens et son corps, ça me semble dans la continuité qu'elle développe assez sa sorcellerie pour pouvoir voir et entendre les pensées des autres... et ce serait tout à fait son genre de lire de le faire pour repérer encore plus vite les agarthans)... ouais, arriver à la faire tomber est pratiquement impossible à ce stade, encore plus pour des agarthans vu que de base, si elle est aussi surentrainée, c'est justement pour les vaincre alors, elle connait tout leurs trucs et même armé de l'épée du Créateur, Némésis risque de ne pas faire long feu face à elle étant donné qu'il n'a ni son endurance, ni sa capacité de régénération ni d'adaptation. Encore, elle pourrait galérer contre des nabatéens qui pourrait la battre avec pas mal d'effort (même si je ne voie pas pourquoi elle s'en prendrait à eux, elle en a juste rien à cirer de ce qui se passe en-dehors de sa montagne et si on ne la menace pas), mais des agarthans... voilà quoi, elle les repoussait avant leur chute alors, avec les ressources bien diminuées, même pas la peine d'y penser. C'est elle qui va les éliminer, y a pas de débat là-dessus.

De base, je me disais qu'il l'épuisait en la forçant à combattre pendant des jours sans qu'elle puisse manger, boire ou dormir mais, il leur faudrait une véritable armée pour l'assaillir continuellement et à ce stade, je voie mal les agarthans avoir assez de ressources pour créer suffisamment d'automate ou recruter assez de gens pour ça... j'ai le même problème avec les autres sorciers vraiment anciens que son Lamine (avec son poison mortel en quelques secondes flottant dans l'air et sa capacité de régénération vraiment infinie vu qu'elle peut survivre à une décapitation et brûle moins vite qu'elle ne guérit), Kelon (idem, se régénère très vite, avec la difficulté en plus qu'il faut pouvoir l'attraper vu qu'il voie assez haut dans le ciel tout en étant ultra mobile avec ses ailes, avec ses éclairs qui peuvent toucher à assez longue distance) ou Pyrkaïa dans une moindre mesure vu qu'elle est une pointe plus jeune (bonne capacité de régénération et faut pouvoir attraper une véritable torche humaine) mais bref, à voir.

En plus, après tout ce qu'elle s'est pris dans les dents, les agarthans qui ont littéralement chassé son peuple pour s'amuser, voler les peaux des siens afin de s'infiltrer chez eux et faire encore plus de dégâts, tout ce qu'elle a enduré pour protéger sa cité, tout ce qu'elle a sacrifié pour son peuple, tout le travail pendant des siècles pour calmer sa paranoïa et qu'elle s'autorise un peu plus à vivre pour elle aussi et pas que comme une gardienne de sa cité... ouais, j'ai pas très envie de l'imaginer en train de perdre contre son pire ennemi, encore plus quelqu'un d'aussi arrogant et pourri que Thalès qui se prend pour un dieu, encore plus contre quelqu'un qu'il voyait comme une proie auparavant. Faudra bien un jour quand je me déciderais à faire son billet à elle mais bon, au rythme où je vais...

Alors, juste, vas-y reine, tu peux enfin en finir avec cette ordure qui a fait de la vie de ta cité un enfer, fait toi plaisir !

deeply depressing that i am never going to get prescribed the meds i desperately need to function

[pallas-cat]

my supervisor approaching me so cautiously since i've been demoted as if i'm not actually happy about it gjejgfg

[seaweedstarshine]

Eleventh Doctor Chronicles: Sins of the Flesh is really good. Really really good. Experience with certain attitudes can be so isolating, surrounded by people who won’t bother to understand the impact of growing up in that environment (because the world's so progressive now, right), and so — I'm so glad it exists. I also liked the discussion in the interview commentary about how being a monster and doing monstrous things are not mutually exclusive. Like most things, homophobia is pervasive because it is structural. Religious fervor is not inherently bad — “your god is love,” Valarie says to Lily — but as soon as hellfire is brandished around, it's used routinely to empower monstrous things, in a way that becomes unsafe to debate. Especially for young & dependent people who can't escape it.

Conditional love. Moral panics. Purity culture. Self-hate. Mob mentality. This audio. It's timely.

I appreciated what they said in the interviews about not only about the research, but the four rounds of sensitivity readings. I wish the TV show had that level of care sometimes…

pro tip: if you think you have adhd then don't start a master's program before you even get a diagnosis (also you need a stronger prescription, you have astigmatism, and reading glasses aren't gonna cut it)
