#also thinking about the times ive trained people are my job and my friend who is a Trainer for their job

[arts-i-enjoy]

Something I've noticed from subbing to just a couple of very small patreons (like fewer than 50 members) is how SHY people are about talking to the creator that they are paying! What's up with that? I wonder if it's because most of these patrons come via tumblr, where there is the culture of talking in the tags/reblogs and comments being your "outdoor voice"/basically it being RUDE to talk to people.

I think that's fucked up, especially in the context of artists (just to be clear every time I say artists that is inclusive of writers). Like these are people that are making a thing and showing it to you, they don't just want silent nods of approval by way of reblogs/likes. They want FEEDBACK. They want CONNECTION. I think a fundamental part of creating and sharing art is the goal of connection. And I don't think people realize how truly disheartening it is to post something and then get completely silent likes/reblogs.

For the love of God they are TALKING TO YOU. TALK BACK!!!!

Break down your thoughts on the Amari live

i'll try to make this as in depth as possible. sorry for how long it is. tough read i know...

the thing that really sticks out to me in this live is how everyone around them is acting around them. in what i believe is their time line, this would've been before they started dating officially but they're most likely exclusive. i think everybody kinda knows they're gonna end up together but they're still keeping it on the dl.

first of all paige's extra ass was annoying the FUCK outta my poor girl azzi the whole time. azzi keeps getting onto her and p seems so emo about it. shes like bae u said you liked my crazy, ipad kids ass side 🙁 i think just that's a cute little takeaway i had from the live 😭

this live makes me miss amari so much cause she has as much media training and ability to keep a secret as ice or even pazzi themselves...she had pazzi on LOCK in the corner of her eye the whole time.

the famous, "paige someone is gonna take u to breakfast." and azzi responds "no they're not" under her breath. BEAUTIFUL! PERFECT! AMAZING JOB AZZI! 10 points im so proud of you thank u god for giving us this moment. first of all, i can practically hear the pout on azzi's face. everyone kinda giggles at her being jealous cause im sure its not often azzi doesn't really seem like that cause she know p's LOCKED. i bet ms i love my girlfriend please leave me alone bueckers is just eating it up but also so quick to love on her girl and tell her she'll take her to breakfast. i hate them so bad i cant even finish this they make me SOOOOOOOB.

next big thing in the live, also one of my favorite parts. everybody's just kinda sitting around minding their business talking about lebron. p off doing her weird i pad kid yelling and cheering. amari reads some comments and at first shes talking about a comment in regards to her being single and asking if she has a bf. THENNNN it really seems like a slip from her but she says "yeah someone said i have a bf and paige has a gf." eeyupppp and for the rest of my life after this i needed to be in a padded room. CAUSE THE SILENCE??? THE WAY P IS COMPLETELY SILENT NOT EVEN MOVING. most telling thing ive ever seen. also ines trying to save it with her shaky ass voice saying "whattttt?? paige doesn't have a gf 😀😀😀" nezzy baby.....you tried i'll give u that. and then everyone is just looking at every surface in that room besides pazzi. he's right behind me isn't heeeee type shit. then amari kinda realizes and awkwardly moves on. so very telling. like everyone's reactions are so weird if pazzi are just friends. and yes you could make an argument they reacted like that cause people were insinuating p's gay but like....let's really be adults and think about this. p would not give a fuck, they would be laughing. BUT NO pazzi nation! pazzi knows she has a gf or a girl who's close to being her gf and everyone in the room does too. case closed.

final thing and second, honorable mention. the way p and a start playing on the bed in that one part feels soooooo....wooo tension. i think everybody feels it too cause ice looks and then gives amari a look and she covers them. from what i can see it looks like p is bent over azzi and a's laying down looking up at her. it looks like paige wants to touch her face or fix her hair or sum. that's just what it looks like to me. debate me if you want. i hate when gay people gay. i fear it's sooooo over for paige atp 💔 she's never making it out that azzi hypnosis. i've been there too its a maze ngl.im still there.

while this isn't one of my most favorite pazzi lives it's very significant and i did enjoy rewatching it cause amari is literally so funny. the biggest thing about this which also makes me emotional is u can see them starting to be comfortable with affection and also just loving on each other. they will never be anyone like p and a again. their love heals souls 💔💔💔💔

Phillip Graves is cursed forever to sleep on a twin sized mattress (feat. soap)

aka line by line breakdown of twin size mattress by the front bottoms and how it relates to gravesoap because i made a joke about it on tiktok and i cant sleep

“this is for the lions living in the wiry broke down frames//of my friends bodies”

a key part of being in a non private military is that the people you’re surrounded with are literally stripped down to being a fighter and to their aggression and how good they are at killing people. having a genuine connection with anyone is hard when basic/SAS training guts you of most of your personality when youre on the job. the 141 in general are good examples of people who slip through the cracks but other examples of people who arent like that that theyre around is people who are part of pmcs like the shadow company who dont have SAS training exactly.

“when the flood water comes it aint gonna be clear//its gonna look like mud//but i will help you swim i will help you swim//im gonna help you swim”

one of the reasons i hc soap putting up with graves’ toxic behaviour is because he sees his past self in him. he sees the internalised homophobia and the self hatred and he wants to help because he knows from experience exactly whats coming, what itll look like and what he wished he had when he was going through it.

“this is for the snakes and the people they bite//for the friends ive made for the sleepless nights//for the warning signs ive completely ignored”

soaps aware hes getting hurt, hes aware that the most graves will let them be seen as is really close friends but hes also aware of the night hes spent lying awake wondering why he went back to graves’ room knowing hes wake up in his anyway. hes seen the warning signs and they are yet to stop him

“its no big surprise you turned out this way//when they closed thier eyes and prayed you would change//and they cut your hair and sent you away”

soap understands why graves is like this, he might not have grown up in southern America but he’s no stranger to the Christian culture surrounding being queer. the military is often seen as an escape from society or the people in your community, they might not have sent him away as such but they definitely pushed him in that direction

“you stopped by my house the night you escaped//with tears in my eyes i begged you to stay//you said ‘hey man, i love you, but no fucking way!’”

while graves’ betrayal was a complete shock to soap i think they both fantasise about what couldve happened if graves told soap beforehand. i personally think that if canon compliant graves ever did confess it was the night before he betrayed them because he knew it would be the last time

“im sure that we could find something for you to do on stage//maybe shake a tambourine or when i sing, you sing harmonies”

in an AU where soap finds out about the betrayal before it happens i think he would try and convince graves to stay and try to carve out a place for him in the 141 so he could switch sides despite them both knowing its not feasible

“it should’ve felt good but i can hear the jaws theme song//on repeat in that back of my mind”

in the lead up to the betrayal i think soap realised something was wrong, graves was making the most of their time together and trying to appreciate what they had while they had it but soap could sense something was wrong even though graves kept denying it

“make sure you kiss your knuckles before you punch me in the face//there are lessons to be learned//consequences for all the stupid things i say”

graves knows that soaps gonna be pissed, he knows hes ruined it and worst of all he knows that the anger soap shows him will he more emotion than graves ever gave him back

“and it is not big surprise you turned out this way//the spark in your eyes, the look on your face//i will not be blamed”

whatever soap thought he saw in graves is gone the second he betrays them. and then it hits him that this was always what was going to happen, this was always the plan and it kill him because he had to convince everyone (cough ghost cough) that they could trust him and he was wrong. thats gonna leave a stain on his reputation

“i wanna contribute to the chaos//i dont wanna watch and then complain//cause i am through with finding blame//that is a decision that i have made”

soap has a bit of a moment after the betrayal where he decides he either wants to never so much look at a man again or just become THE worst person ever when it comes to dating

“she hopes im cursed forever//to sleep on a twin-sized mattress//in somebody’s attic or basement my whole life//never graduating up in size to add another//and my nightmares will have nightmares every night”

soap is PRAYINGG for thjs mans downfall

[millionmaggots]

did/osdd/posdd/etc havers, can i mayhaps get ur opinion on something please?

i havent rlly been posting abt it bc the plural/system space online is HELLA SCARY with all the fakeclaiming n discourse n shit, but im realizing i proooobably have some kind of dissociative shit going on 😭

- can't remember the first 10 years of my life with any detail, then it gets a little clearer until age 15 or so when i can remember pretty well / maybe normally (idk what normal really is tho)

- i lose hours at a time

- i don't have distinct people in my head except for this one lady who's basically the ceo of violent / upsetting intrusive thoughts (i don't think i experience switching)

- but i do have a very disorganized train of thought, with a lot of different things going on at once / overlapping (i also have adhd tho)

- ive heard voices (that don't sound like me) on and off since i was like 8 or 9

- ^ i got tested for schizophrenia and i do not have it

- my parents get annoyed with me bc apparently i take / move their stuff, but i often have no memory of doing it, and little/no reason to have done it, despite evidence that i did. i usually just say that although i have no memory of doing it, i guess i did and im sorry. this one happens probably at least weekly and causes me a lot of distress bc it's scary being told that i did something i don't remember / wouldn't do

- people (esp my parents) sometimes tell me im acting off / different, and it's really confusing, bc as i see it, im always acting like myself

- i have a history of acute dissociation / depersonalization, especially when i was working a rlly stressful job

- i have an absolute dogshit short term / working memory

- i space out and fail to process things ALL THE TIME, especially auditory information. i need about 20% of everything said to me repeated.

- i get inexplicable feelings of dread from things i have no (conscious) emotional connection to

- i have cptsd symptoms and at least 2 distinct triggers associated with bad experiences ive had

- accidentally called myself a 'we' when talking to my psych? i remember everything about the appointment except the context around why i would've made that mistake

- like i said, i have adhd, and my adderall helps me focus, but doesn't do anything for my general inattentiveness / spacing out / forgetfulness

- my childhood was like. fine? in terms of like parents/housing/money/friends/etc, but i grew up not knowing my gender identity or that im disabled, and i had a severe undiagnosed anxiety disorder dismissed by adults as me being "shy" and "sensitive" so there was a constant ever present feeling that i was just inherently a bit off / wrong / broken

- nothing bad was directly done to me when i was little (as far as i know?) but i was, in hindsight, emotionally abused by my principal and homeroom teacher all throughout middle school (severe depression and anxiety, i was told to "stop being so negative" or i would be put in a different classroom without any of my friends <- the people who helped me and made me feel at least a little bit safe)

tl;dr: if anybody w osdd/did, etc, took the time to read all this, i would REEEEALLY appreciate u guys giving all this a sniff test 😭 not asking 4 a diagnosis obvs just kinda a peer review

i have a psych appointment abt this in about a month but in the meantime i would love to hear from systems who know abt this kind of thing. what do u guys think is up?

(PLEASE don't drag syscourse over here bc i know it'll just make everything im dealing with worse and more confusing /gen /srs)

vitya was celebrating after the banquet with some other skaters, drunk after winning gold in the olympics for the second time. he black out. he then woke up in the next afternoon, after missing his flight back home, with four other figure skater and three hockey players, all of them in the ground, wearing only underwear. his hair was a mixture of vomit, alcohol and dirt from the floor. there were even a few gum stuck to it. he was not the only one.

so he had to cut it yeah

https://www.tumblr.com/puppy-steve/759647379768082432/ive-only-seen-like-2-photos-of-jq-with-doja-cat

You’re not insane. I thought the same thing, but people get real mad any time anybody even suggests it’s a stunt so I’ve just been in my corner Lolol.

i think it comes down to people not really understanding how celebrity industries (movie and music, alike) work. i'm not saying i'm an expert but i was in the 1d fandom for a good chunk of time and was friends with a few people who had jobs where they interacted with either the celebrities themselves or someone from their teams.

i'm not the best at explaining things, so bear with me. jq is an established actor in the uk for various roles, but stranger things gave him his us break. he's now being offered bigger roles in bigger us franchises, and that means the general public needs to get to know him. meaning, he needs to be seen with high profile celebrities and get a few articles in people's or whatever shit tmz wants to spitball in their writer's room.

yeah sure, he's been seen with that one dude from the bear, but people aren't going to really look at that. they're gonna glance at the photos and then flip to the next page.

however. PR teams know that we as a society are, unfortunately, obsessed with celebrity relationships. doja cat is a very high profile celeb and the general public's eyes have been on her for a while for her controversies. most of the time, PR stunts are mutually beneficial, and sometimes they're not. this one seems to be the former. jq needs to become a household name and doja cat needs her image cleaned up for whatever reason.

this possibly could have been in the works since 2022 when she asked NS for jqs' number, who knows. but give both of their teams time and a few pap walks, and you have what is a very well-crafted and believable love story.

"jq doesn't need the hype" you're right! he doesn't! but he's still a rising (foreign) celebrity and he has to pay his dues. they're literally trained for these things. you might not think A list celebs have to do PR stunts, but they do. even if doesn't look like it. i'm sure joe keery has also done a few runs in the past couple years.

also can we talk about that pic with his hand very strategically placed on her ass i cackled so loud he's trying so hard

[micamicster]

Hi! Do you have any romcom (movie) recs? I feel like i hypothetically like the genre, but have a lot of trouble finding ones i enjoy. So many romcoms feel so formulaic (in a dead way) and misogynistic and stale to me. I think they’re a lot easier to do well in the context of a series because there’s actually time to build. Recently i thought rye lane and fire island were fun. I like kdramas when i have the time for all the episodes because i appreciate the build. I need chemistry— people who both convincingly like each other and seem like actual human beings. I thought you might have some good ideas! Thanks <3

HELLO LARGE VOICED ANON <3

I hope you weren't waiting on my recs all day haha i have been. hm. hungover af <3 (i'm going to leave kdramas off this list for now but if you would like specific recs for kdrama romcoms send me another ask and i can try to do them justice!)

I think this is a genre with underrated range! So one thing that I find very interesting about the genre of romcoms is that I think there tends to be a split between romcoms whose goal is, like, to be a fun lighthearted movie with a central romance, vs romcoms whose goal is to Say Something About Love in the vehicle of a funny movie. Both of these categories are represented on this list but for giggles i will not be saying which i think are which <3

anyway recs under the cut <3 i will link my tags for these movies if you want to take a look but be warned for spoilers ofc

I think for your purposes my primary rec would be Lovesick (aka Scrotal Recall). It's a (short) tv show so it would likely give you the chance to get to know the characters and see a slower build. In contrast to the frustration you've had with some more "formulaic" romcoms the writing in this show is very deliberately in conversation with romcoms of the past. Also it's just one of my favorite romcoms ever made so I rec it to everyone. The premise is that a young man, Dylan, is diagnosed with chlamydia and instructed to tell his past partners. Being a hopeless romantic (emphasis on hopeless), he decides to try to turn this into an opportunity to revisit relationships that didn't work out, and try to figure out where he's been going wrong. Two simultaneous storylines play out in each episode, the flashbacks to the exes (and breakups) and the present, where Dylan's best friend is getting married.

Older romcoms: When Harry Met Sally (ive heard this is divisive? but idc its SO funny and so well made), Moonstruck (a romantic-comedy in the operatic sense. also cher <3), The Philadelphia Story (katharine hepburn the woman u r. tw for a classic 1940s gag about punching ur wife in the face), Bringing Up Baby (screwball comedy my beloved), Roman Holiday (audrey hepburn is lethally charming in this movie), Dirty Dancing (someday ill write something this good and then You Will Realize), Much Ado About Nothing (i tend to enjoy either the danielle brooks shakespeare in the park version or the classic tennant/tate combo)

Teen romcoms: 10 things I hate about you (young heath ledger and young julia stiles ur welcome), to all the boys i;ve loved before (lana condor is ADORABLE), The Half of It (my other favorite sort-of romcom of the decade)

More recent-ish: Speed (like its keanu and sandra what more do you want), Strictly Ballroom (i used to watch this literally weekly as a child and I WAS RIGHT TO), Miss Congeniality (sandra bullock what u did for us all <3), Fire Island (thank u 4 my LYFE), The sandra bullock/channing tatum movie that came out last year (i forget what its called but he's so funny in it), Mamma Mia AND Mamma Mia Here We Go Again (beautiful greek islands, abba, cher, what more can you ask for?)

Indian/bollywood: Jab We Met (after dramatically quitting his job, Local Man somehow ends up escorting a woman he meets on the train while she attempts to elope with her boyfriend. aka classic screwball comedy heroine and Guy She Dragged Along For The Ride), khabie khushi khabi gham (multiple generations of romance and family drama featuring Kajol, the Most Beautiful Woman In the World), Band Baaja Baaraat (two wedding planners fall in love--great choice if you want to watch idiots ambushed by their feelings)

Other tv recs: Selfie (john cho and karen gillian in a show canceled far too soon)

idk ur ocs who are they .........................................

ohhh welllll i have a lot of them and most of my main (?) ones that italk sbout are on my toyhouse buuut i will give a synopsis of most of the ones from the “world” or story or whatever ive been thinking about alot recently i call it training wings but it doesnt rlly have an actual name because its nit like a specific story or whatever. just a world with guys in it you know.. the lore is overcomplicated when i try to explain it but basically all you need to know is heaven and hell and stuff exists but it operates alittle differently from like ur typical tropes or what evar

this is FRITZ she used to be human but she got turned into an angel and then she fell from heaven bc she hated it there. she likes grindcore music and other stuff like that. also shes italian american because lol. shes kind of currently on the run from like the angel cops or whayever who want to quash any potential resistance to their cause such as fallen angels and things of that nature. but shes ALSO trying to run away from a couple other people she used to know that she would rather not have in her life anymore for various reasons. one of those people being

EZRAH he used to be like the “main” character and he was the first oc i made in this thing but then i made fritz and liked her more. lol. hes an angel who likes humans more than other angels and spent a long time goofing around on earth before he killed a couple people on accident and as a result was punished for that and his centuries of slacking off. his punishment was being demoted to guardian angel duty and the person he was a “guardian angel” for was fritz! he cares about her a lot and basically sees her as like a daughter of his. but she hates his ass and also obviously had no interaction with him while she was alive (that she remembers) so the relationship is very one sided. hes currently trying to track down fritz to make amends with her and also try to protect her from the other angels trying to kill her atm. the people trying to kill her arent just angels thouvh, they also include people like

no name :) shes a restless spirit unable to pass on who wanders the earth bringing terrible storms and natural disasters wherever she goes. she has a name but nobody knows it, so we just call her no name instead. her and fritz are exes who had a really messy breakup after a very long and unhealthy relationship together. she came across fritz like directly after she fell from heaven and helped her adjust to like. existing in general outside of doing what heaven tells you to do and stuff. because of the amount of people harmed by her storms she has a fair amount of clout in hell and can come and go from there as she pleases but she doesnt work “for” hell if that makes sense. she just does what she wants. shes not specifically chasing after fritz but she is pretty bitter about their breakup and when they encounter each other shit usually gets messy.

thise three are the main ocs i talk about but theres also ones like

anise. shes a runaway that ezrah ends up taking care of and eventually fritz joins in and also helps with that because she doesnt trust ezrah to take care of another human child on his own lol.

and fionnbharr :) shes another angel who used to be a human and when she was alive she was a medieval catholic priest in ireland but then she died and got angel hrt and now she guards the gates of purgatory. its a job that keeps her separated from most other angels bc shes gotten a little silly after being around in heaven for so long BUT her and ezrah are friends ^_^ she has a bit of a falin dungeon meshi chimera body type deal shes like 11 ft tall. and she is a sweetiepie

and there are others but these are the ones i draw and think about the most.. smioles at you

[itsbetterthananal]

as a team lead my shift is about to be an absolute disaster and my life is about to be hell bc the one competent person is going part time (“i’ll still be here!” she says, girl you’re gonna be here the hours they need you not the hours you want), the other full time person is the most vindictive spiteful bitch ive ever had the displeasure of being around who fully believes im out to get her and im not, she is just constantly making mistakes after being here for 6 months, and the person theyre bringing in to fill the full time position, as much as i think hes a good person and does okay work, refuses to take notes and forgets everything i train him how to do and has an attention span of like 5 minutes until he gets bored and talks about all the famous people he knows. like. ive trained and worked with at least 8 other people on this shift since i started here and ive never had a real issue with any of them (one of them annoyed the crap out of me but that was just a personal issue) they all worked fine and understood our tasks pretty quickly and adjusted to the workflow of the office. and now you’re gonna give me this shit and expect me not only to train but uphold what needs to be done every night with people who refuse to work with me, to the point that i am forced to make tasks so basic that i cant even just make a list of closing tasks and say complete this list by the end of the night, i have to break down the list into sections and assign it because these grown ass motherfuckers cannot just PICK STUFF OFF A LIST AND PUT THEIR INITIAL NEXT TO IT. like. its so ridiculous. my mental health is actually being stretched thin and i swear my managers are looking at it like a test of “can she handle managing people” bitch ive been managing this shift since a year before i became official lead, before the actual supervisor was hired, i just hate being micromanaged or micromanaging, just be a grown up and do your fucking work and work as a team, is it that hard????? the walking on eggshells around my one coworker is actually causing me stress to the point that my eye started twitching cause she will switch on a dime, i will put forth the effort to have a friendly rapore with her and the moment one stressful event happens that she interprets as a slight, its over. suddenly she “knows what im doing” and how “im in a bullying pact against her” girl all i said was “i think so-and-so is on break” and she literally confronted me over the bullshit she made up in her own head. im done with it but no matter how many times i speak w management or HR they do nothing about it. i dont want this to be the end because i love my job and i really really love the friends i have made there but they are testing my patience fr

also, for the record, this lady is 62. why are you beefing with people in their 20s. how are you in your 60s and this immature

[xzaddyzanakinx]

GURL i neeed to ask advice. ive talked to my friends about this and i feel as though who better to ask than my favorite tumblr account.

ok, so i’ve never had a boyfriend and i had been on a dating app for maybe a year or so and i didn’t really use it, i talked to a few people but it never went further than that and i would eventually stop talking to them because i would get overwhelmed.

and back in august for school i had training for my on campus job and this boy was also doing the same job as me. when i would be working the shift after him he’d always talk to me for a few minutes and i got the vibe he liked me, but it never went further than that (and i was lowkey grateful for that).

and now about a week ago, he liked me on the dating app and i thought it was insane so i called my friend and told her and she said oh so we’re gonna message him! and at first i didn’t want to because i wasn’t really sure if i liked him. but after some convincing i replied to him.

we started talking and he’s really sweet, he genuinely wants to get to know me. and at first i was a little excited about it, but then i just feel like texting him is a chore, and when i would be with my friends they’d help me on what to say to him and it was kind of enjoyable.

and he had asked if i wanted to go to the library with him and study, and i said yes. the day we were supposed to do it i had woken up feeling really sick and also kind of like i was having an anxiety attack. so i asked if we could reschedule and he said yes. so we met today, and it was alright. we didn’t talk much because we were at the library. i just didn’t really feel a connection and i know it wasn’t a real first date or anything but im feeling so stuck on what to do because he asked if i would want to go to the movies with him and i had said yes.

also before meeting him at the library i had seen him where he works and i had said hello, and hoped to talk to him before our first time hanging out and im not sure if he even recognized me (but that seemed impossible because you need to tap in and my name and photos pops up on the computer) and i stood there for a few seconds like umm are you gonna recognize me???? and then the night before we hung out i had a friend come in while he was working and he did the SAME THING and it was so awkward! and it just was odd to me when we actually did hangout because he was so talkative on text but in person it was just weird.

i just don’t want to lead him on, and i don’t want to force myself to do something i don’t think i’m ready for. i thought i was ready to do this type of them but i really don’t think i am and i feel like im in too deep because he texts me all the time and he replies so fast and sometimes i take a few hours to reply because im just not in the mood. and i realize that’s kind of a red flag for me, but im really stuck.

this was so long but i appreciate you if you do end up reading this! 😙😙

lowkey wish i just had stalker!ani to do all the work 😔

Ah man dude. Sounds like one of those ‘idea is better than reality’ scenarios. I hate that it’s not working out for you but you’re totally right, that’s weird as hell.

If he were really interested in pursuing you, seeing you randomly out in public would be like the highlight of his day. Acting as if he doesn’t know you screams suspicious to me.

If you feel like texting him is a chore, your heart is not in it. I think you should just politely ask that the relationship stays platonic, tell him that you had a nice time and you’re thankful for the time spent with him (even if it’s not true bc men are fragile and need their ego stroked). It sounds like things will end relatively easily considering that he seems kind of uninterested in pursuing you.

You’re def not in too deep tho. You should never ever feel that way. You are allowed to end any relationship, any conversation at any time you feel like it. Your comfort and happiness comes before anything else.

[chronotopes]

about me meme spotted on the dash board what a great excuse to use up too much time answering questions

What's the origin of your blog title?

my favorite poem, "the idea of order at key west" by wallace stevens

OTP(s) + ship names:

help. not really in the stage of my life to have multiple otps, vriska/terezi homestuck + "vrisrezi" (or 'scourge sisters' if you're old school but i'm decidedly not)

Favorite color:

green and burgundy, though not together

Favorite game:

i so don't play video games, i find them fun when i do play them but i do not have the time. ive been known to engage in a Star Dew Valley in the past, which i am still fond of, even though my habit of ignoring the farm to go to the mines all the time maybe indicates that i should Play Another Game. the video game i have the most affection for rn is elden ring tbh which i do nooooot have the time or skill or dedication to play myself but i really liked watching jenny do it. maybe one day.

Song stuck in your head:

i'm listening to posing for cars by japanese breakfast rn so nothing is really stuck in my head

Weirdest habit/trait?:

i feel like my bad habits (picking at my cuticles, not refilling the water filter) are not necessarily weird and i can't think of anything else

Hobbies:

writing (though that might be more of a 'lifestyle' than a hobby), art when i feel like it, piano again lately (YAY). one day fencing will be on this list again but i'm still broke so it's still a no go lol

If you work, what's your profession?:

I write immigration law petitions (and mainly request for further evidence responses these days, which are little customized little letters where you yell at us immigration services for not reading the original petition) for stem researchers

If you could have any job you wish, what would it be?:

creative writing or literature professor at a small teaching college. sigh. oooor writing center director but that one's more complicated. i think i would also be good at working in publishing but i feel i would hate it so there is that.

i don't mind my job right now though, i just wish it had the kind of structure that allowed me to like list people as references.

Something you're good at:

writing (with room for improvement), cooking (both from recipes and on the fly), packing, summoning the energy to do important stuff (like packing, or a long drive), gift-giving, navigating train stations and airports, befriending my friends' gen x moms

Something you're bad at:

navigating things that aren't train stations or airports, being proactive about completing objectively easy work tasks fast, writing-related research, deciding what to eat for breakfast, emotional self-regulation (lol), inviting people i like to hang out, starting new hobbies, refraining from posting through it

Some( )thing(s) you love:

watching my girlfriend and friends' improv practices, the moment when writing goes from One Sentence At A Time to 'trying and failing to keep up with what your brain knows comes next', cold winter days in dc when downtown is empty of everyone but people who live in the area, the river in my hometown, green perfumes

Something you could talk about for hours off the cuff:

late 19th-early 20th century american tomboy literature :] also, adaptations as a whole

Something you hate:

there's plenty of serious things i could say but my first thought was 'how fast bathroom floors get gross'

Something you collect:

perfume samples lol not in the sense that i think of them as 'a collection' i just. happen to have a bunch

Something you forget:

periods of my life where nothing explicitly horrible is happening but i'm still too busy or sad to write in my diary

What's your love language?:

"I don't believe in love languages because they're Christian propaganda about how men don't have to love their wives." SO TRUE SEREN!!!!! that said um i do all of the love languages and like all of the love languages because they are all important to a good relationship. however 'quality time' is the one that i most profoundly need from people to not go insane, while that one and 'gift giving' is probably one of the ones that comes most naturally for me to offer to others.

Favorite movie/show?:

little women (2019) and star trek deep space nine.

Favorite food:

they tend to fall into one of two categories: Stewed Or Slow-Cooked Cozy Thing With A Great Depth Of Flavor (brisket, most beef braises, french onion soup) or Bright Acidic Summery Thing (most forms of tomato salad, any and all mango- or peach-based savory dishes, etc). man idk i like a lot of foods.

Favorite animals:

kity.......

What were you like as a child?:

ages 1–5 who tf remembers. ages 5–11 - quiet, shy, bookish, artistic, Sensitive Soul Whos Been Stomped On By The World (learned english by immersion in a very poorly classroom-managed kindergarden class a month after moving countries). ages 11–13 – LOL SO RANDOM warrior cats enjoyer writing one million novels at any given moment, insufferable know-it-all, seriousgirl who wants to be a funnyman so bad. as you might guess the last category is the one i feel the fondest of.

Favorite subject in school:

In middle school, consistently literature and science (we had separate english and literature classes). from sophomore year of high school onward, i knew i was Going To Be An English Major but that made me a lot pickier about teachers, and i hated both my ap lit and ap lang teachers intensely. so in sophomore year it was english, in junior year it was us history, and in senior year, it was..... good lord, it was probably calculus lol

Least favorite subject in school:

P.E. in middle school easily; in high school, health and wellness followed by algebra ii followed by ap lang followed by ap us government

What's your best character trait?:

Good lord I don't know. I think I'm a good listener and a fairly thoughtful and self-aware person, which makes me good at advice. I am also a very proactive and dedicated person when it comes to acting in collaboration with someone or on someone's behalf. So I was really good about setting up housing and utilities and logistics when Jenny and I had functionally a three-week window for moving across the state. On the other hand last year I waited until April 12th to file my own taxes so ymmv.

What's your worst character trait?:

I still have kind of terrible emotional self-regulation, and it gets worse the closer with someone I get and the better they treat me, so not to be a dramatic ya protagonist boy but the nicer you are to me the greater your chance of one day seeing me be truly stupid and evil about something.

If you could change any detail about your day, what would it be?:

I dropped an egg on the floor this morning which I would rather not have done.

If you could travel in time, who would you like to meet?

Virginia Woolf.

Recommend one of your favorite fanfics (spread the love!):

Homestuck: Read Vinbre the Novel, obviously. Or CHARGING THE VOID. Or And the handmaid shall take the hindmost. Or my most underrated non-Aivide fic, the truth must dazzle gradually.

Deep Space Nine: Read Scenes from a Disaster Zone, and then read it again.

[back2bluesidex]

Idk if this is something you’d want to read but after reading your post about being lonely, i definitely feel the same way 😅 albeit probably a little different. I dont really have anyone to talk to about this feeling so i thought maybe i’d share this. I just started a seasonal job in retail at 22, ive never had a “real job” because since i was 14 i was considered the “family babysitter” & once i turned 16 i kept applying for jobs so i didnt have to keep babysitting, nothing worked out because i was always met with “you need more experience “ & i kept getting that until i was 20 (when i just gave up & accepted I’ll probably be a babysitter for family/family friends forever 🥲). Ive only really been surrounded by kids & family, my mom took me out of highschool in my 1st year because she hated the public school system & decided to “homeschool” (which was go get my ged at 18), so i never got to experience the highschool life & friends, i was pretty isolated. Aside from getting rejected from jobs constantly, i wasnt able to go to college after either because it was too much money & that “nobody would be at home watching kids”. So ive just constantly felt very alone & whenever i would mention it i was met with things like “dont be selfish. you should be thankful youre not out there in the world, it’s evil” etc etc. Along with the fact i dont know how to drive, i had a huge fear whenever i was 15/16 so i never learned then but when i was 18 i didnt have that anymore & wanted to. I was constantly trying to get people to teach me, but no one would and driving school costs a ton which i didnt have bc no paying job. That added on to that feeling & i kept feeling behind

So fast forward to now at 22, i was finally able to get a seasonal job at victorias secret and nov 4 was my first training day. I still have that feeling & now im just stressed about everything. They immediately put me on cash register & very vaguely explained things to me, so i wasnt the best when trying to check people out & i know in retail you’ll get horrible customers sometimes and that’s literally all i got. I was so overwhelmed & i did accidentally mess up someone’s change (which was fixed!) so i had them screaming at me 2 hours in my first training day. And i cant stop thinking about how inadequate i felt during that & that whole day really. I would get judgmental looks from the other workers when i would ask questions, because ive never done anything like this before. I kept getting looked at like i was stupid for not knowing things & that messed with me (still is). I dont think itll be like that entire time im there, im hoping at least.

And i still dont know how to drive, i tried once this year from my older sister but she started grabbing the wheel when i was trying to drive because she panicked (i was going in a straight line in a empty parking lot) & stated she’s never trying to teach me again. My younger cousins learned how, have their license and new cars already & i hate that i feel jealous and angry about it because it is family, but everyone who helped them constantly told me they couldn’t with me year ago & still now. I get subtle remarks of “your cousins can drive already/youre 22 & relying on others to drive you” etc. (they also all have jobs already & not a seasonal one like me) But yeah, i feel so alone & inadequate at literally everything, have for years. Breakdown all the time because i have no clue on what to do & i have no one to talk to about it.

Rant over, sorry for how long it is, im probably being dramatic too, there are people who have it worse than i do 😅 but yeah, i get that feeling! I do hope you feel better better about it 🫶🏻🤎

Don't say sorry! It's alright. Rather I am glad that you found me and my blog safe enough to share your troubles with.

and let me tell you that you are just 22. You still have a whole lot of time ahead to make money, to learn driving, to make friends, to enjoy life and do everything you want to do.

Don't ever think you are late or that time is slipping away from your clutches! It's not.

I am 25 and I can't even cook. Can you believe it? a 25 year old woman who can't even fry an egg properly while cooking is a basic survival skill? my friends can make a whole feast if they want to and I only know how to boil some instant noodles. At times this made me feel like an inferior too but no, none of us are inferior to one another because what I can't do - you can and what you can't do - I can. we are all lacking and it's okay.

Also, if those people made you feel like a fool just because they didn't train you properly then it's their fault, not yours. when you start working you need to learn one thing that is to make you skin thick. It's only you who needs to know the truth - that it's not your fault - and the rest of the world can go fuck off.

and what if you did some mistakes? we all are allowed to do so. mistakes are the only way we get to learn, isn't it?

So, please, darling. Cheer up! You have a ton of time to buy that car or get that job or tell people to fuck off when they ask you to watch their kids. Things aren't over yet. You are doing good. You will do even better tomorrow and one day you will be the best! I believe in you and I am proud of you!

even though I know we are basically strangers but just know this person right here, an elder sister to you, will always be proud of you no matter what!

if you want to talk, slide into my inbox any time. I will always welcome you!

Love you!! 💕💕💕💕

P.S: You should have charged for those babysitting sessions.

P.S.S: I, too, don't know how to drive. LMAO!

[dirtbag-linecook-kyloren]

because i basically also use tumblr as a diary we're going to do some SMALL real life posting below the cut feel free to ignore it i'm just talking lol

I have a friend IRL who also writes fic, though she's relatively new to publishing, but I mentioned my Fandom Trumps Hate stuff to her because she has the background to get it and I was excited. When the winning bid changed, she asked how many words that was and I said "127k" and she was like, "that's more than I wrote last year." Which is fine and fair, she's an english teacher she has a job that requires thought and not just mindless stress

but in my head this was a "oh we're sharing how much we wrote last year situation," which looking back I think I misread In the future I'm going to take a "you still wrote something" approach, but I said I wrote like 250k last year, because I did the math and i did. but her first, IM CERTAIN instictive reaction was the this look and i don't know how to describe it but it was WILD and not envy but gave the impression of "i wish you hadn't said that" and maybe a tinge of "im not sure how i feel about that" and in my head I was like

hey like i get that i dropped out of college and you were an english major but a few years after I dropped out I was working at a diner and spent a whole year basically training myself like a dog to write whenever

and now im breaking my process down into pieces so small that no matter how fogged my brain is I can work and like

i worked really hard to be able to write this much you cannot just expect that from yourself without work?? like i found the methods that are effective for me because I took the time to try out DOZENS OF METHODS and I failed at a lot of them but now ive got one and its why after a decade of not finishing long things all i can do is finish things

but i can't say that to a person so we just moved on but like

writing isnt a calling its an active choice you make??? for some people its a hobby and that's fine but my intent is to move into traditional publishing, so i treat fan fiction like a job because at some point i INTEND FOR WRITING TO BE MY JOB so i have to take it seriously now so i dont burn out?? so i don't get advances and then find myself incapable of meeting deadlines?? like

anyway this was my warm up in a weird way but thats a small bit of real life posting behind every authors word count is the time they practiced to get to it i wrote like 100,000 shitty words last year that never saw the light of day and 250,000 that did and that's just how writing is??

- cassidy i played as a laid-back popstar, for genuinely no other reason that nothing else fit and i really wanted his hat 😭 also i thought itd be so funny to have him of all people be the like. relationship fixer 💀

- genji i played as a cool imp i think . ya. i would've gone warrior with him because of the sword but i really did NOT wanna repeat jobs it makes me so 😿😿AUEEUUgh repeating them so i ended up going with imp for him ?? it's really funny to be honest 😭

- aaaand moira i played a cautious scientist :] cautious not so much because it matched personality wise but moreso for the quirks that it has, i felt they'd be fitting !! reasoning for the scientist job though i think is obvious HSJAHAJAJ

realm of the fey

again this was supposed 2 be the blackwatch folks but i had to swapsies bc im crazy picky with my jobs 😿 ueueue

- mercy i played as a kind cleric, kinda because like. Woah. The Healer . but also the opportunity for the resurrection ability with angela gawddamn ziegler of all people is way too good to pass up on 🤨

- torbjörn i think i made a stubborn tank?? my friend violet suggested the tank job for him and it made me giggle bc it reminds me of his turrets HEHAGSGAJSJSF i also thought itd be really funny for him to straight up launch teammates

- tracer i chose to be an energetic cat i think . YA . energetic because like. this is lena oxton we're talking about . and i think i went with the cat job because of it's like. IDK it feels fast/agile and the claws reminded me a bit of tracer's double guns so 🤨

for non teammates i don't have many npcs who are ovw folks, but the process behind deciding the first dark lord was really funny HEHAHAHAJAJ

legitimately my train of thought was like... who in overwatch is just incredibly pathetic . nobody came to mind. thought harder. reach an epiphany.

and then we got here <3 (mii by @violetspark14 btw !!! they're fucking CRAZY)

and great sage ramattra followed shortly after, i think it's the way they dress + the staff and sorta the general vibes of the sage?? IDK. i remembered i had to assign a mii and like.

(VINE BOOM)

(AGAIN, MII BY VIOLET :] they're responsible 4 theeee ramattra + maximilien + torbjörn miis :])

you can't see everybody here properly but!!! the gang :]

and of course i can't just NOT let you all see this video when i managed to capture it in time ❤
