#tapetum lucidum my beloved#i totally think that Peter has it and it freaks people out every now and then#also i've had that thought every time i go to the grocery store and see the cereal prices#it's absolutely insane#cereal should not be more than $3 in my opinion#peter parker#he would also sleep in the weirdest places and New Yorkers just find him in the most uncomfortable positions but he's fine#i also found out that spiders dont have a sleep cycle like we do and essentially just doze and go unconscious when it suits their needs?#wild#it's been a rough year for him#spiderman#marvel

to preface this post i am anti-advertising i think we should explode the entire industry but it's sooo funny when you people make posts like "and they don't even work!!" like. sorry to be the bearer of bad news but yes they do. that's why we have to put up with so many despite everyone hating them and thinking its annoying. because they actually work really well and make a shit load of money
#it actually would be way better if they didnt work and made no money bc businesses would abandon them#this isnt like stocks where everythings abstract and is essentially gambling (i dont understand stocks)#like ppl in the ad industry create things. that make a tangible and quantifiable impact on the business#which is then used in further ad planning. it is NOT all smoke and mirrors#like its fake in that the industry is not providing a necessary service the way like. grocery stores are#but its not the level of fake where everything is abstract like theres deliverables#moreover there is an extensive body of academic work specifically on how to make ads more effective#ALSO i think some of u views ads like. as if they have a win condition. which is you buy product#but in current advertising this is pretty rare and comparatively ineffective#which is why you see MANY ads which dont seem to be selling anything in particular. or which have nothing all to do with the product#the 'win' condition for THAT kind of ad is something more like 'viewers remember our name'#like. ex i would say ads for temu have not been effective on me bc i havent bought anything from them#but temu probably thinks they were SUPER effective on me because i talked abt them like 5 different times at work#and i do in fact know exactly what the company does and what they sell#and they were able to capitalize on the reputations of existing companies (wish shein etc) to build their own brand#good idea generator

thinking about how video games usually have you buying items at a shop that has a grocery clerk sort of model. or like a merchant’s stall.
no… show me a video game that makes you wander through a life-size supermarket instead. oh you want a health potion? gotta figure out what fuckin aisle it’s in. pharmacy? sports drinks? condiments? walk around and find out. also you have to spend like 5 minutes standing and staring at the dozen or so options. there’s different flavors and some of them might be cheaper but you gotta factor in the quantity…. and multi-packs…….. should you get a 6 pack of blue raspberry +50 or a single espresso full recovery?
and how about fantasy costco? you want 200 shivs???? that’s wholesale babey
#shhhh it’s for the immersion#very essential gaming experience#btw 99pi has an episode about grocery stores. if you even care#it’s number 411#what do I do now? tag a bunch of popular video games?#the legend of zelda#skyrim#pokemon#baldur's gate 3#hades#stardew valley#yeah that’s enough

sometimes looking at like Self Help Strategies lists for the symptoms I'm having is always just like:
thing that I already do
thing I have tried 10 times
thing I already do
thing that I don't have the money to do
thing I already do
thing I've been doing since I was 10yrs old to no avail
thing that is impossible given my situation
thing that doesn't apply to me
thing that I already do
thing I have already tried
hrmm, oh wait, maybe finally- OH, yeah.. okay. thing that I already do but it was just phrased slightly differently
thing I have already done
#I think maybe productivity tips help less if the reason you're unproductive is partially like.. physcial health and other extenral things#out of your control. rather than just like having trouble paying attention or spending too much time on tiktok or whatever#all the strategic to do lists in the world are not going to somehow prevent me from waking up with a debilitating migraine or whatever#or having external stressors or lacking resources and connections or other Productivity Essentials etc.#especially many tips involve stuff like 'cut off from social media' since thats the modern day time waster for so many poeple#and it's like.. lol.. i can hardly even maintain a blog even thuogh i actively WANT TO DO SO. 'shut off your smart phone!' already#done babey i fucking hate smart phones i shall never use an app unless i am forced to. 'delete tiktok' yep. already covered. tiktok and#all of those thinsg are my enemies. 'save money by cancelling some of your services' cool. already ahead of you.#who the fuck is out here paying for like 10 different subscription services. pirated videos uploaded to google drive and youtube to mp3#my beloved. etc. etc. and so on. 'socialize less' .........LOL.. if only you knew.. mr.writer of the article. i can barely muster#talking to friends more than once a month and even less if I'm actively sick (often occurence) etc. etc. ... hewoo#I think maybe instead of generic productivity tips I need more like.. how to refocus and be productive anyway even if you have a headache#or are nauseous or etc. Not that those are always things to ignore. and of course you should let your body rest and etc. But plenty of peop#e have mild physical symptoms and just work through them. Ithink something about the way my body/mind is SOO hyper attuned to all#sensory information just makes it like... constantly 'GRR well I cant focus on WRITING right now because my lef#t ear feels weird and my socks are too itchy and my back has a strange pressure and I'm vaguely warm and my eye feels some ssort of#way it doesnt normally feel and I'm hyperaware of my breathing and also nauseous for no reason' and like half of those things I#think '''normal''' people wouldnt even notice or at least would be able to just live through. but for me it's like.. nealry impossible to i#gnore and soooo distracting always. like 'wahh.. nooo we can't draw or get anything done.. my legs feel slightly heavy or something!!'#like............. ok......... who cares. thats not even a PAIN sensation it's just something weird. but it's just like.. NO. constant#mental alerts about the 'heaviness' of your legs be upon ye. Though Imean like.. yes.. 70% of the time I am in genuine pain#or having some sort of actual ailment with trackable physical symptoms. but sometimes it's just like... we could totally be working right#now and ignoring this silly thing but my brain is fixated on it for no reason uncontrollably. etc. etc. I guess it's the same way that like#most people can go to a grocery store without the whole experience being so overwhelming and so much stuff going on at once#that they have to rest afterwards but like.. in my own HOME doing NOTHING i feel like I should be able to not get overwhelmed lol. ANYWAY#Rolling my bastard little rock up a dumbass hill and so on and so forth

#hush n shush wifi#just a tad sad#actually more like angry as shit#okay let me TELL YALL about my day#first: the annoying#i was going shopping at a grocery warehouse and you know how those parking lots are always super crowded?#well it was. there were no parking spots and there were so many cars and people trying to go everywhere#i scraped my wheels too which is fine but one of my relatives who likes cars acts like it's a sin#so that shook me up enough that i didn't go outside for the rest of the day#and THEN#OHHHH AND FUCKING THEN.#if anyone remembers the absolute ass of a person from last year who i thought was my friend but said horrible things to me out of the blue#WELL THEY CAME BACK#i never got a chance to block them initially because they blocked me first#BUT I GOT FUCKING MESSAGES FROM THEM TONIGHT#AND ALL THEY WERE SAYING WAS ESSENTIALLY THAT THEY MEANT WHAT THEY SAID#they said some bullshit about the execution being wrong and that their ex wrote it for them#which by the way is just scummy on its own#and that they get mad emotionally which is a horrible excuse#and had the AUDACITY TO ASK IF I HAD ANY QUESTIONS#IN WHAT DELUDED SELF CENTERED WORLD DO YOU HAVE TO LIVE IN TO THINK I WOULD EVER WANT TO TALK TO YOU AGAIN#my trust is a VERY VERY FRAGILE THING#AND THIS IS A VERY LARGE CONTRIBUTOR TO IT#this isn't an apology. they regret none of it#this is a way for them to make themself feel better#the scariest part is that this person by now is almost/IS an adult#which is terrifying if that means there are more people like that out there#i try not to wish ill will but i genuinely hope no one ever has to suffer through being their 'friend' ever again#anyways they're blocked on all of my platforms now.#if the person is somehow reading this. hi! never talk to me again. you're a horrible human being with no consideration for other's feelings

#“i'm shopping for essentials :)” YES I LOVE THAT FOR U#now let me tag along :")#sdv harvey#i'm mostly content with being alone but just now i felt a pang of loneliness in the middle of the grocery store#it was really weird like i saw kids with their parents#groups of friends#teenagers#and i was just… there#zoning out in one of the aisles

Lmao. i could have just successfully completed thee most demanding series of tasks at work, saved a bunch of babies + nuns from a burning building on my lunch break, fixed a longtime family relationship that was irretrievably broken, and not missed a single run or swim all week long
but when i get home and wanna cook something i been thinking about all day long, and find im completely out of some basic ass ingredients …. i feel like a complete failure at being an adult
#how tf you let yourself run outta these cooking essentials o??#are you even trying to adult?#virgin olive oil#garlic#diced tomatoes#diced onions#eggs#butter#arsenic#old bey#sodium free chicken broth#cooking#grocery shopping#a post about me

#image.txt#the rent i currebtly cannot afford is getting raised again for no reason#my essential grocery trip i just took where i got max 11 items was 64 dollars#forgot to pay this months insurance so instead of just paying a late fee i have to pay double next month#i cant fucking afford anything il#i got a flash tat with my tips i saved for weeks only for my mom to say that money could have gone somewhere useful#like thank you i know i just wanted one little sliver of happiness because i missed last years flash#like what if i just killed myself what would you do then#was it worth it was it all worth it just to keep a roof over my head and consistently eat dinner 4 times a week was it fucking worth it#i want to just give up i really really do

“Why are Canadians not having children anymore??” Too expensive to live here, next question
#you wanna know the cost of a house in the capital of the poorest province in Canada?#it’s 800k#if you want it in a good area#if you want a duplex or bungalow in a mid part of town? $600k#I’m talking average baseline cost of a house in Halifax NS#my grocery bill of JUST the essentials (4-7 items) is like $50#I’ve got friends splitting a 2k rent for 2 bedrooms#Canada kinda sucks man

#i also had to buy. you know. people food#but those are the items that cost more and really add up oof#i spent less than $20 on not-absolutely-essential items and still#sorry i keep complaining about grocery prices but. what else can i do#i have to feed my family. i have to feed the cats. we have to have basic hygiene products#like we're ok enough rn don't worry about us too much but the prices uuuuuuugg#uuuuuuuuuuggggghhhhhhhhh#i keep thinking 'ok well with this grocery order we'll be well stocked and won't have to spend as much next time'#but then we inevitably run out of something else T__T#mod post#groceries#grocery costs#financial stuff

watching alfie become catastrophically enamored with lunter over the course of thanks to them was so fucking funny i LOVE showing toh to new people. everyone gets something slightly different out of it. and it is Literally Always Hilarious.
#there's nothing funnier than a relationship that has half your friends going 'oh theyre like brother and sister :3'#and half your friends yelling 'KISS. KISS. KISS. THEY NEED TO KISS RIGHT NOW OH MY GOD WHEN WILL THEY KISS'#me? i'm right in the middle baybey. best of both worlds i write them being super weird in ways that defy the usual dynamics.#the most essential thing in my luz hunter writing is that no matter where u stand on the sibling-to-romance spectrum#i want it to feel weird. not like i tripped and ended up in some boring '''just friends''' territory between the two dynamics#but that they are far too bizarre and tangled up together for both the romance And sibling truthers. gotta feel a little wrong for both.#and also a little right. their secret fourth thing (being completely fucking crazy people together. something is wrong with them)#i should get up and go grocery shopping now that ive napped a little. is this a risky post. we're not still doing bad faith ship wars right#lunter is good honestly i'm just never going to ship it without amity and/or willow there too. i dont do monogamous ships when i could not.#toh#horrible mindscape trauma pals
