Made a height chart of my main 5 characters!

Odypen definitely and equivalently adore each other BUT I weirdly can't see them as the type to actually say "I Love you".

They still definitely vocalize their love for each other but it's more so in "My Joy", and "Extraordinary Woman", "Strange Woman/Man", etc. And very cheesy lines (both say some cheesy shit in the Odyssey, and he definitely does in the Iliad as well. "Joy like a drowning sailor seeing land" bit???)

I could see "I adore you" but even then, that's probably during very specific moments but the actual "I love you"??? I just typed it just now for fic shit and... It weirdly just didn't feel right and I don't know why. 😅

Idk maybe it's kind of because I see them as over the top in ways, they love wordplay and riddles and I think they'd almost think "...That's not good enough >:( " about it??? I don't know???😂

I don't really know what else to do. I'm finishing up my Merit America job training program. I'm applying to jobs in my field with no luck. I'm applying to retail jobs with no luck. I'm reaching out to local mutual aid groups (too soon to tell if that'll be any help). I'm waiting for a $100 microgrant I earned through Merit to come in. I've talked to my therapist, I've talked to my job coach, I'm doing everything I'm supposed to be doing and none of it is bearing fruit.

I have enough to pay my bills in November but nothing else. I'm rationing shampoo. My bank account will be empty by December 1st. At this rate I'll be getting my car repossessed for Christmas. I have no other support. If my mom hadn't paid her house off years ago I'd be living in my car right now. My parents live on a fixed income; they have nothing left to give.

So if you have money to burn and this silly blog has brought you any delight at all, could you toss some spare change my way?

ok... i have a question.

i'm working on the taglist for iwtky, and some blogs are no longer linking. will these ppl still get notified if it's published? 🥲

[minty-rbs]

Ack. So I used my school google account for my main @minty-bubblegum . I never thought to change the Gmail hooked to it or to set an email and password. So now I'm locked out. I have no idea what to do and I'm stressing really bad bc I do not want to lose my blog and I can't access it to change my email. For now I will be alternating between this blog, @mintys-losthermarbles and basically all my spam reblog accounts. If anyone knows how to contact support of such please help :((

Tagging mutuals from what I remember:

Have you heard about the news with Nicholas Braun?

yup. it was all over twitter and i was so disappointed of him and i hate him for that. i hope everyone who was affected by his disgusting actions, especially those who are brave enough to come out and speak up, are doing better now.

personally though i will still continue watching succession because this is one of my favorite shows for years and i can't let one horrid man ruin that for me. it's going to be a weird couple of weeks and consuming this show wouldn't be as fun as before, especially as someone enjoys making art of greg and tomgreg in extension. but we move

this is a stupid question but how do I come to good terms with people who nearly got me to commit suicide

looking into some self-publishing options..... because i’m Insane.

[fnafawoundleftbleedingau]

Are you going to be drawing any of the human characters for spirits AU?

Also what are the spirits just wondering?

I plan to eventually, yeah, I'm just having more fun drawing non-human characters right now. XD As for what they are, I still only have a really loose idea for this AU, so things are definitely subject to change as I decide on story elements and plot lines and etc, but the simplest way I can think of to frame this AU idea, is just, inspired by things like Spirited Away (And Studio Ghibli movies in general to an extent), Over the Garden Wall, and so on. Rather than Animatronics, Freddy and co are whimsical and mysterious "spirit" or maybe even "crypitd" like creatures to an extent. :3 Likely with different magical abilities, and/or different elements and/or concepts they have sway over. It'll likely be some time before I can really devote much into the writing and story elements of this AU, since I have my current fic to finish, and again, a lot will likely change between now and then with the unnamed "Spirits AU", but that's the general vibes rattling around in my head for now. Don't have a lot beyond design ideas and vibes at the moment though unfortunately. ^^;

had a trans meetup today and a mom who recently learned her kid was trans and was clearly in distress about it came to ask for advice and all and ough my heart

[lightningfilledsaber]

sometimes I feel... silly. for saying I have the disorders/illnesses/etc that I have because I’m not diagnosed and the little internalized ableism monster in my head telling me it’s “too many” but also like. I’ve taken a VERY long time sitting down and evaluating these things about myself and I still don’t like. allow myself to use certain diagnostic labels despite fitting most, if not all, of the criteria. It feels like a fine line to walk, understanding that self-diagnosis is in a lot of cases critical, just as a professional diagnosis can be! I have my reasons for using the labels I do and identifying with what I do, just as I have my reasons for not seeking diagnosis, and I think at the end of the day whether I choose to use them or not, I know I’m doing all I can to use them with respect.

in today's installment of "I have personal conversations with my parents once a year" I learned that I was a twin and may possibly have chimerism

[shadowed-yet-vibrant]

Sometimes I forget that I'm actually a music journalist. Not just a music journalist, but a professional. A professional with a strong portfolio and more than three years of experience. I'm paid to write, which was my dream for years. I'm paid... to write. And not just to write, but to write about something I love.

It doesn't often feel real. Maybe because I love it. Maybe because I'm always a fan before I'm a journalist. I still get butterflies in my stomach when I interview a musician and get to hear their voice, hear them greet me by name, and hear them answer my questions with the professionalism expected in that exchange. I still get flustered when my content is used for promotional posts. I still flip back through the first print magazine I was published in, and I savor the feeling of glossy pages beneath my fingers. I still smile

I hope the universe knows I don't take a single moment or opportunity for granted.

I think something ive been pushing off so much that i keep forgetting how big it is, is the fact that all (or all that ive talked to) of my coworkers/bosses are transphobic
