Emang dasarnya moody-an? Atau ...

Seringkali, hampir setiap saat bahkan, rasanya malas melakukan apa pun. Tubuh tidak mudah bergerak, niat tak kunjung terkumpul. Seakan setiap tugas dan pekerjaan hanya bisa diselesaikan saat ada mood.

Itu hal yang buruk? Tentu saja aku tahu. Aku sadar betul bergantung pada mood adalah hal yang buruk. Bisa dibilang, aku pemalas luar biasa yang tak jarang membuang semua kesempatan yang pernah datang padaku.

Mimpiku banyak. Wishlist-ku terus bertumpuk. Mulut selalu craving makanan-makanan yang belum pernah dicoba, atau yang ingin dimakan berulang kali tanpa henti. Harusnya semua itu sudah cukup untuk jadi alasan bangkit, memulai sesuatu. Buruan gawé biar yang dimau bisa dicoret satu-satu.

Harusnya.

Di satu sisi, aku sadar kalau aku hanya melempar semuanya ke mood, padahal aslinya malas. Namun di sisi lain, aku juga sadar kalau aku sudah berusaha terlalu banyak selama beberapa bulan terakhir.

Skripsi, sidang, revisi, bolak-balik kampus untuk mengurus sisa administrasi, hingga akhirnya wisuda. Selama lebih dari lima bulan aku mengerjakan itu semua hampir tidak berhenti. Aku masih berusaha meluangkan waktu untuk sekadar login game, nonton anime, atau baca manga. Semua coba kulakukan se-seimbang mungkin, berharap tubuh dan kewarasan tak tumbang. Namun ternyata, layaknya botol sampo yang masih terus diisi air dan dipencet berulang kali, akhirnya habis juga, tak bersisa.

Niatku untuk memulai lembaran baru, habis tak bersisa.

Sebut saja aku pemalas yang berlindung di balik kata moody-an. Sebut saja aku pemalas yang sedang mencari-cari alasan untuk membela argumenku saat ini. Namun nyatanya, tubuh, hati, bahkan semangat juangku membutuhkan waktu. Waktu untuk beristirahat, dan waktu untuk membenahi semuanya sebelum memulai kembali dari nol.

Mungkin, aku emang dasarnya "moody-an." Apa yang sudah kutulis di awal, rasanya sudah menjelaskan kalau aku memang orang yang malas dan menggantungkan semuanya pada "niat." Namun, mungkin juga aku memang hanya butuh istirahat, setidaknya untuk sekarang.

Manapun yang benar, sekurang-kurangnya aku tidak berniat jadi beban keluarga dan ingin menuntaskan semua wishlist yang sudah menumpuk itu.

I think that one thing people fail to understand is that unsolicited literary criticism coming from an online stranger who is reading with no knowledge of what the authors intended goal is, is not going to be received the same as say: the authors beta reader or friends who know what the authors intended goal and has the sufficient knowledge and input to help the author reach that desired outcome.

"But I'm only trying to be helpful" How do I know you have the knowledge and literary skill for you to be able to actaully do that when we don't know each other and you are essentially a stranger to me? Are you applying this criticism based out of personal biased experience and desire to see the story or characterization be driven in another direction or tweaked, or do you know the author's intentions for the character? If the story is incomplete, are you basing your criticism of a character on the incomplete narration with only partial information available of them or are you building up a report until the story's completion? Did the author provide you with the information needed to make a fully informed criticism?

Have you discussed with the author what their plans are or are you assuming them based off the narration, especially if the narration is proven or implied to be unreliable or missing key points of the plot? Are you unbiased enough to help them reach their desired outcome for the characters and story regardless of your personal feelings towards the characters/antagonists and setting? Can you handle being told your specific input isn't wanted because you're a reader and/or have no written anything relating to their genre or topic? Do you understand and respect that the author's personal experiences might influence their writing and make it different than how you would have done it personally? Do you understand if an author only wants input from a specific demographic relating to their story?

If it's for fanfiction or other hobby media, are you holding a free hobby to a professional standard? Are you trying to give criticism because you feel like the author has produced 'subpar job performance' of their fic? Are you viewing their work as a personal intimate outlet or something that must conform with mass media? Are you applying rules and guidelines when the fic is shared for simple sharing sake? Is your criticism worded appropriately and focused on the parts where the author has requested input on rather than a general dismissal and or disapproval?

Have you put yourself in a place where you assumed you have the input needed for the story to evolve better, or have you asked what the author needs and what they're having trouble with? Can you handle having your criticism rejected if the author decides their story doesn't need the change and not take it as a personal offense against your character? Are you crossing that boundary because you think you are doing the author a favor? Are you trying to be helpful, or do you just want to be?

I think sometimes when people hear authors go 'please don't give me unsolicited writing advice or criticism' they automatically chalk it up to 'this author doesn't want ANY constructive feedback on their stuff at all' and not "i already have trusted individuals who will help me with my writing goals and- hey i don't know you like that, please stop acting so overly familiar with me'

These little fuckers are round gobies. They are a freshwater goby that's invasive in Michigan, and they're in the nearby lake. They're distinct from the four native species due to their fused pelvic fins (middle pic) and a big black dot at the rear of their front dorsal fin. Though some other gobies have spots on their fins, NO Michigan-native species has a fused pelvic fin. These guys are very aggressive feeders and are very good at outcompeting native gobies.

They're also extremely good at stealing bait off big hooks as people on the docks reel in their lines. In particular, the bastard in the bottom photo stole my bait two days ago, so I caught him and filleted him for Bug.

Today, after acquiring smaller hooks, I went back and got 16 more, and educated several other fishers about their invasive nature. I got two turned over to me by others, and caught 14 more myself.

One man wandered over and asked why I was catching them on purpose. It was too much trouble to explain my feelings about invasive species, so I just told him, one of them stole my bait two days ago. He stopped watching my bobber and boggled at me and goes:

"You're doing this for revenge?"

So now there's some guy in town that thinks I am exacting revenge upon fish kind for a single stolen worm.
