They lost their cat to old age and little miss was distraught, so she gets a horse to cheer her up. Best daddy ever?
Meanwhile:
"Daddy where my horsey? Waaaahhhhh!" Little brother wants one too.
Daddy and uncle try to explain that he's too little to have a horse, but he has a counter argument!
"A pony then!"
And:
Little cousin is also feeling aggrieved, "How comes I no get horsey either?"
"Gimme a break! I'm your uncle, ask your own daddy to get you a horse kid!"
#ts4#sims 4#the sims 4#ts4 horse ranch#sims 4 horse ranch#the sims 4 horse ranch#when you get your daughter a horse#everyone else wants one#your son#your nephew#the folks next door#a lesson learned perhaps

Snoopy #19
20/10/2024
#peanuts#snoopy#art#19#snoopy crawlies#if you've ever read louis sachar's wayside school series then you might remember a story about bebe in art class#where she would spend every art class trying to draw as many pictures as possible without caring about how good they were#& then the teacher mrs jewls points out that you can make a lot of art without it being good or you could spend ages making one good piece#and then bebe goes home and doesn't come back until she's made one really good piece of art#or something like that. i don't remember the exact details#but anyway. me with this blog = bebe at the start of the story#perhaps one day i will learn my lesson

the ‘why would anyone entrust Akutagawa with Aya remember what happened the last time he took care of a young girl 🤔’ is such a dogshit take. like bro are we gonna just forget his whole-ass younger sister who he dotes on or, idk, perhaps literally the fact that his villain origin story is that he COULDNT PROTECT HIS FRIENDS IN THE SLUMS i am killing all of you with hammers
#when oda loses his mind and goes on a murder spree when the kids he so desperately tried to protect are murdered it’s cool#but when fourteen year old akutagawa does it he’s a villain#okay#it’s not even subtext that Akutagawa treated Kyoka like that because she reminded him of himself#and Dazai gave him a ‘reason to live’ so he passed on this ‘purpose’ to her as well#don’t worry about why I’m awake at 2am akuposting#bsd 117#HE chose to spare aya even as a vampire#HE chose to keep his promise not to kill#HE chose to die for atsushi#if y’all don’t see the fact that Aku is undergoing perhaps the most character development in all of bsd#then I don’t even know what to tell you.#also cmon anyone gonna believe that Kunikida is actually a milkshake#from Kafka ‘deathbait’ asagiri#he has ‘killed’ everyone in the series already bro#it does not stick#… also I love bsd but. dude.#did you skip the ‘cry wolf and other ways not to write stories 101’#if ya keep ‘killing��� characters and then always bringing them back#no one is gonna believe you and the emotional impact is going to lessen#like we haven’t learned our lesson from: dazai chuuya fyodor sigma akutagawa mori#fukuzawa Kunikida tanizaki naomi#uhh Nikolai Kyoka Fitzgerald#Katai gin hirotsu#mushitaro etc etc etc#… actually it would be funny if someone put a flowchart of this together#oh I am getting so off point. okay.#anyway… dazai you bitch-ass you could never make me hate akutagawa

So the guy who rainchecked on Monday saying that he wasn't feeling well wrote back after I'd already gone to bed last night, saying that he was feeling better and apologizing for not replying for a bit. I wrote back mid-morning today and now once again... nothing. I think if I don't hear back from him by sometime tomorrow I may just unmatch and move on. As always, I'll lie to myself and say it was his loss 🙃
#dating nonsense#i just wish motherfuckers would say what they mean#if you're not into it just say so like damn don't waste my time#and i was trying to give him the benefit of a doubt because he seemed super earnest and enthusiastic#but maybe that was an act#or maybe he just realized after the date that I'm awful#because that seems to happen pretty fuckin' often#someday perhaps i will find a way to break the second date curse I am under#or perhaps not#damn man I was ready to go with this one too#so tired of this shit#dating app hell#every time i let my guard down or start to hope even a little i fucking regret it#mr. gr#when will i learn my lesson and stop trying

hrgh every time I think I've come close to forgiving lance fucking parkin I skim the gallifrey chronicles. and then I remember the Horrors.
#listen bc when I read through and play around with AHistory I'm inclined to enjoy and respect his work as a curatative fan historian#but his actual prose writing#it. it beggars belief it truly does it's just atrocious#megan whines into the empty abyss of cyberspace#everyone in the EDA discord who thinks father time is the worst of it oh boy babes the worst is absolutely yet to come#like I get *why* they gave him the last book of the line because he does (mostly) know his lore extremely well#so it kind of makes sense that he'd be picked to wrap up all the myriad loose ends#and also he's well liked and afaik pretty personable unlike some fuckers I could name and didn't spend years burning bridges#but oh my god oh my god literally everything to do with Fitz and Trix is just. awful. terrible.#guy who absolutely does not understand or respect any of the three of that team TARDIS but especially Fitz#also The Thing With Sam#never happened fuck you lance#also given just how many asspats he gives himself over his command of the lore he fucking got Sam's middle name wrong?!#also it's soooo obvious how much he loves Anji because she's a Capitalist GirlbossTM#he really does not grasp her character development or personal arcs but he thinks he's killing it#like she *is* a Capitalist GirlbossTM but that's not all she is but he's not actually interested in her interiority at all#he just enjoys that she's a fiscal conservative#god the fact that trading futures is the literal very next book after Anachrophobia#one of the best books in the series that explicitly calls out Anji's pro-capitalism stance using time-war-for-profit played for utter horro#immediately followed by...almost the exact same premise but Zany RompTM#it's not that capitalists misusing time travel for profit is inherently bad it's just *these guys* who suck#no lesson is learned! then you fucking get to the fucking gallifrey chronicles and Fitz actually deciding that this very same scheme#'wasn't perhaps unethical' just because it's Trix and Anji doing it#like yeah sure Anji and Trix can have a little insider trading. as a treat. but that is literally the definition of unethical lol#the only reason time traveling to acquire stock tips isn't massively illegal is because it's not fucking real like??#of-fucking-course it's unethical you walnut#parkin you smug annoying self-obsessed lore-obsessed pregnancy-obsessed just barely-plausibly deniably not homophobic asshole#I'm avoiding even bringing up the actual beef with TGC because first of all everyone fucking knows but also it's just.#it's such a goddamn shit awful trainwreck#if parkin wasn't a Fitz-hating homophobic coward he would've ended the gallifrey chronicles the same way he ended the dying days. wink.

When the Library of Vivec doesn't has all 36 Lessons of Vivec.
#tes#morrowind#library of vivec#nerevarine#tes oc#oc: sundros#i draw a meme#perhaps the archives are incomplete#i thought this place will filled with books written by or about vehk#we only have 1 of the 36 lessons#what if i didn't learn the lesson#the other thing i love about the library is some book has more than 10 copies#stop! this is not a book store! you don't have to stock them!!!

preaching inclusivity is great but you rly gotta watch who's preaching bc a lot of the time its someone who thinks some shit like confirmed claims of grooming children and animals are "drama"
really the lesson is "think for yourself" but a lot of ppl just. dont wanna do that and so it becomes rly dangerous the things ppl slip into whats acceptable when posting those strong opinions that carry this vibe of "fuck you if you dont agree"
#lost a lot of respect for ppl who follow and share content from eevee/lexyeevee bc like#what the hell is up with that#cohost had a huge problem w that bc they were basically friends w the owners#theyre gaining traction on bsky as well and its becoming clear that that rly is just The Pattern#also the issue w all new platforms is that everyone who got exposed and blocked and forgotten#suddenly they get their shining new chance at new people to exploit#including ppl who knew better and perhaps even still do#you can claim “its in the past” all you want but if you commit that kind of crime and dont turn yourself in#thats perma-unforgiveable sorry#like you clearly never learned your lesson bc you can still bear to live with excusing yourself from the consequences#ppl just writing themselves blank check forgiveness like its nothing#and like clearly there are plenty others like it but they make a good case study of this issue

"Setting your daily usage limit higher is cheating" well did you consider I miss the people in my phone
#i needed to stop the hours long anxiety building scrollfests but i do like seeing you all so we strike a balance 🙂↕️#and trying to actually donate to people instead of just reblogging is hard when your daily limit says hi! you were going to read something?#perhaps click on a link? no you weren't :)#so i have learned my lesson.

boss wants me (an in-house corporate english teacher who has been teaching one 1-hr lesson a week to each employee who is supposed to be learning) to think of a better way to teach english
anyone have any ideas?
#for context we currently teach from Oxford Business Result textbook series#i've thought of assigning a WHOLE BUNCH of extra hw#or making everyone take 2 lessons a week but i feel like that won't really do anything#unless the second lesson was like a book club so they had to do a couple hours of reading outside of class every week#perhaps doing a monthly speech contest to make them practice what they've learned#maybe doing fifteen minutes per day (on the clock at the office) of english study time#llu

it took me 200 years but I finally understand why there are no new Electro Visions given out...
#* . ⊹ 𝑇𝐻𝑂𝑈𝐺𝐻𝑇𝑆 𝑂𝐹 𝐿𝐼𝐺𝐻𝑇𝑁𝐼𝑁𝐺 › ooc .#and the reason has been obvious but not so obvious! having neuvillette though.. it certainly helped me get to that knowledge#so! .. basically why there are no new electro visions is because the authority over electro was inherited by the shogun puppet!#it's no longer in the hands of ei given she had given up her physical form. and without her physical form new visions cannot be manifested!#so. in a way.. she acchieved what she envisioned with reaping away visions! and then she continued to take them away from people to stop#the wheels of fate from going any further. which is what her eternity was! it is in the single still moment that wouldn't move them further#in fortuna's plans.. but in the end we learn an important lesson. that humans are stronger than their gods#and they have the power to resist fate perhaps. or to turn against fortuna in some capacity. which is probably why khaenri'ah was decimated#in the first place! so ei effectively discontinued Electro visions being given out after creating her prototype and unknowingly made him th#part of the fortuna's plan.. damn! ;;; also its very interesting how we thought inazuma's arc wasn't good but with each another region#introduced we got to decipher the true meaning of ei's plans towards her people and her nation. which.. is super ironic. but i'm glad

with the caveat that i am not a computer scientist or in any way qualified to speak on machine learning. i think perhaps googles ai summaries are bad because nowadays when you google a question, most of the results are themselves already ai generated. which smells like. a real big problem to me. who is, again, a person who not qualified to smell it.
#i have been doing a lot of paint pouring art recently (perhaps i will post some someday)#and the biggest lesson i have learned is that#there's a hard cap on how many times you can reuse the same pile of paint.#after one pour you can easily collect the leftover paint and pour it over another canvas and it often looks really cool#but if you collect the paint after that one and repour it again#it will start to look pretty bad.#and if you repour THAT leftover paint . all the contrast & definition in your pour will have been turned to slop.#bc youve remixed it so many times that the original work & intent you put into colour selection technique etc etc#is pretty much irrelevant. and you just get mud on your canvas.#theres only so many times you can run things through the blender before they stop being worth anything.#anyways i think maybe these concepts are connected. computer science girlies if you are so inclined please tell me more. im chewing.

One interesting thing in Timeless is that at different points all the main characters (or at least the trio and Flynn. I don't know about Jiya precisely) have as their driving motivation this idea of doing absolutely anything to protect/save someone they love. And they range in how far they go with that, but they all at least push boundaries. And in every case the show takes this sympathetic but firm stance of saying no, that's not it. The impulse is good. It is good that you love so fiercely and want to protect this person. But it can't be at all costs. And it shows the harm done when that love is allowed to justify crossing lines and disregarding others.
Instead that impulse gets channeled rightly into courage, and acceptance, and giving of yourseld sacrifically.
#timeless#rufus learns the lesson first and perhaps best#and maybe ends up a christ figure because of it and through him the others figure it out

if i didn't have to eat then i think I'd spend the entire day just working on digital painting tbh,,, it feels like sculpting and i love it sm :]
#cannot wait to start working on it again after i get some dinner :3#its so fun idk its like... moulding smth under ur hands almost#u get to create the shape of the face and everything... watch it come to life as u add the right colours... its so cool#im a bit puzzled rn w it though bc Chase did Guz and I did myself and I feel like they look a little different somehow#and idk what we did differently so i dont know how to make them look the same fjdkdl#smth is different btwn the two though... i think maybe he did a little less detailing perhaps?#but my face is scrunched so theres more lines on the face... and his isn't so theres less... so it is kind of less detailed#but not necessarily incorrectly so :/ hrmm !!#difficult to do this when i have genuinely no real idea what im doing dhdksl#i wonder if i could find some lessons somewhere that i could listen to or watch online abt realistic digital painting#i wanna LEARN#dandy.cmd
