hi mod!! do you happen to have any tips for those of us who are masking at work and still want to stay hydrated?? i wanna be safe, but water is a MUST ;; even if you can't think of anything, i hope you have a good day!!
okay so I admit working from home gets me out of this situation a lot, BUT. on the occasions I've been on a train and been Thorsty I used this! when I went to Costa Rica one of the most wonderful things I purchased and have kept ever since is The Bitey Woter Tube
What the Fuck is That you ask, well it's a Platypus Drink Tube and all you do is screw it onto your platypus waterbottle or plastic bag. thing. whatever. turn the bottle upside down, 'bite' lightly on the sucky part (which opens the end of the weird straw) and then use it... like a weird straw.
I survived hiking around in a rainforest for a month with this sucker (literally) and I've found it oddly useful ever since covid hit, bc you can sorta shove it into the side of your mask for a sip when you are dying from dehydration and not have to take the mask off fully.
If you want to look marginally less bizarre (and you have the option) I'd suggest simply leaving the crowded areas to go have a drink break outside or in a corridor, but if you can't leave and don't mind people asking what the fuck that thing is, this has been working for me!

Headcanon: Deep down they both want to be their fairy godparent/godkid again after losing them, but don't believe they deserve each other and feel like they aren't worthy to be their companion anymore
They both need counseling and therapy as a whole package
#fairly oddparents#fairly oddparents a new wish#peri#peri fairywinkle cosma#dev dimmadome#fop a new wish#peri fairly oddparents#a new wish#periwinkle#the fairly oddparents#dev#my art#fanart#I like how both Peri and Dev is the type who prefers not directly express their feelings because they want to be seen as cool/independent#and be loved by the people that they care of#in other words#a tsundere//hit#jokes aside I like to think another reason why Dev cried during that scene is because-#he realized he's doing the same thing that his dad has done to him but on Peri#and yet Peri still cares for him despite his treatment towards him#like how Dev still loves his dad despite being a terrible father#and just..want to do everything right by him to earn his dad affection#man#Also ngl I have a hunch that Dev might still remember since Hazel's ''no rule'' wish was pretty vague#so maybe he counts in that wish?#plus he was wearing sunglasses before the memory wipe which maybe that won't affect him as well?#you can see I'm coping rn#I do hope this is only temporary and we will see them being back together in season 2 tho#giving them both some time to reflect and growth#because Peri clearly needs more experience in his job and Dev needs his character development for season 2

"I remember seeing a post here on Tumblr (or Twitter) where someone zoomed in on the rules of the wall and one of the rules that someone pointed out was 'no swearing'"
"And thanks to that I can't stop imagining Dmitri, Grigori or any guard on the wall saying like: "what the fudge?" Or "holy moly" whenever they are angry and want to swear"
"So, to the person who made that post. THANK YOU AS I LOVE AND HATE YOU, YOU ARE THE BEST" submitted by anon

but also literally the fact that jack manhattan stands up the hotel gift shop like right after/before she gets mad at liv. Paula baby be an adult. I love to watch them all spiral but i really do hope we get a liv confrontation moment
miss paula "slams screens down laptop style the moment she sees something she doesn't like to confront on them" donvaldson we can one day get there together I believe in you
#not art#ngl I also hope she never gets a win I hope if she and liv comes to a head liv wins soundly#I know thats not how emotional conflicts work but I just think liv should get this one. shoplifting from walgreens is epic#I get the impression before her time at the mall paula's life is very like. uneventful. like she finds it great overall but like every othe#adult of that generation I've seen straight married she was glossing over some fault lines to get to be a ''normal upstanding citizen''#and the fault lines get deeper and things fall apart and she refuses to confront that it's something long in the making#it's instead this disaster that came upon her and her family out of nowhere and thus the Worst Thing On Earth#her life's irrevocably upended when she's already a decent streak of perceived stability into it. and now she loves order and justice#or not! I'll admit on sight I'm not as familiar with the Midwest Gothic and adjacent genre as much as uhh#East/SEAsian Parent Who Is One Child Out Of The House Away From Joining A Cult genre#maybe thats why paula fascinates me lmao#I say she should keep losing bc I think an arc of accepting that life is chaos and people are more important than rules would be#great for her. esp with her being in her late 50s. but also just bc she's SO good when she's cringefail. Im so sorry women#she Should explode at liv and she Should be so wrong. she's spiritually my cody for nsbu. I love her. lets get u some initiative ma'am#nsbu spoilers

aaaa this weekend my friends took me to the cities to hear Alexander Rybak (and like the best pianist from Belarus/Norway) play classical music!! they were fantastic, holy shit. godddd I miss playing and being around musicians who are Genuinely passionate about music. and he seems so down to earth. I think the pianist, Stefan Zlatanos, is probably one of the best pianists (&by far the best accompanists I���ve ever heard, WOW).
if you ever have a chance to hear them play, please go see them! they like small venues which is sooooo nice, and they rly wanna support these local places. I want them to be my friends, lol.
#also mr. rybak .... you are literally pursuing the career I wanted after college lmao#we had the same degrees: film score composition#rip that future but I sincerely wish him well !#the eurovision fanatics in the crowd were SOOOOO annoying tho#srsly go watch youtube if you wanna scream#especially WHILE he's in the middle of a piece ;A;#there was one where he was super stressed about playing#(they were supposed to be joined by a third--an opera singer--but his stalker appeared and made her feel unsafe to appear onstage :S )#and they scrambled to fill the concert#so he added a piece that was rly tough#and he was nervous for it and admitted it to the audience#and ppl SCREAMED at him during tough passages ;__;#and he turned and was like ''huh??''#and fumbled#ngl I honestly think concerts like that (esp where artists play both pop/contemp & classical)#a few rules/concert etiquette so#should* be read aloud b4 the concert#just so things like that don't happen & freak out the performers#(like this isn't a *snobbish classical music major* opinion--it's genuinely so things like that don't happen)#nan.text

🖊🖊🖊🖊 for diana ofc
a fun little fact about diana is that she wears her watch with the face on the inside of her wrist
while working for umbrella (well, undercover for the rival company, that is), diana's employment was never common knowledge to the public – because why would a pharmaceutical company need a herpetologist? instead, she simply held a position as a researcher at raccoon university, and would occasionally do lectures, but for the most part she would just take the cable car underground to the nest
when diana collaborated with the connections through h.c.f. in the early 2000s, they named one of the d-type bioweapons after her
diana saw a lot of her younger self in sherry when they first met due to the similarities in their situations with their parents, and the way she behaved around both herself and albert. despite her dislike of children, she couldn't help but feel for her and even came to enjoy when she would stay over on occasion (i'd love if my brain would let me finish the rewrite of their first meeting because i touch on all of this in there and diana's thought process ough)
#asks.#denerims#oc: diana#thank youuu emily!! ilysm 💖💖#i think for the diana asks some things are going to be like things i have probably mentioned before but just like a lil more in depth...#you know how i am. or like things i've deleted since posting them. it's fine. i'm normal about her!! but many lil tidbits in my brain i can#share about her too. just not sure if i have enough rn for the couple of asks i got with lots of pens lmaooo head empty and i've talked#about her SO much that there's not much that's not around here somewhere on my blog in previous ask games oopsies or on her page#also ngl i'm forever mad that in the 3 remake they made nest 2. because the university lab was where the vaccine research for the#t-virus was done when things went to shit and they named that daylight. and then for the creating weapons to combat the b.o.w.s and also#test the bioweapons against one another was done at the r&d centre... i'm fine i'm okay it's okay. capcom can i pleaseeee have an outbreak#remake!!! i miss her!!!! but yeah that's weird cause nest 2 didn't exist originally and the nest was a lot bigger?? it's fine.#anyways she just did her typical like Legal research with herpetology and virology there as a front but then she'd take the cable car#underground to the nest because my rules. if travel to the nest was available by cable cars from the waste facility / treatment plant /#arklay labs / rpd sewers & training facility then i can add another one beneath the university :) ALSO in outbreak they travelled to the#actual nest from the hospital and not nest 2 :) so yes. underground system for employees to access all facilities basically 💅🏼#i originally had her work at the chemical plant as her front but then i went no that would make no sense for her background and like both#of the birkins were already there so it would just be too much going on there and needed to split them up#OH also. sorry omg i talk so much but you know me <3 the part about her working at the university. i literally had this mentioned in that#fic where she went over to the s.t.a.r.s. office and um things happened but i cut that off early cause i liked it ending where it did

The worst thing about my brain being an autopilot grammar nazi is that every single time I see people misuse “it’s” and “its” as well as apostrophe placements is that I don’t want to be rude and correct people... but my brain still is like UGH THIS IS THE WORST.
“It’s” and “Its” are more just my brain going weeo weeo on me when that’s a more understandable one bc “its” is literally the exception to a rule (because “it’s” actually means “it is”, so to avoid it being used for two meanings the apostrophe is removed for ownership cases), but when I see apostrophes before an S for plural wording and I know they speak English properly I’m just like. ugh. damn. bruh. please. go back to school.
Less severe cases of incorrect apostrophe use tends to be like, when people are playing Heroes and have duplicates of units and are like “my Ike’s” instead of “my Ikes”, because I think people are trying to... make it more clear that it’s referring to more than one? I think? Maybe? Or they literally just don’t realize it’s incorrect grammar, idk lol. Still can’t get past my weeo weeo autopilot brain though sadly.
LIKE. IT’S NOT ANYONE’S FAULT THAT MY BRAIN IS WEEO WEEO, IT JUST IS.
Which speaking of Heroes, FE in general seems to have its script in every single game ever coded to always use apostrophes for ownership cases even when the word ends in S, so don’t worry folks. IntSys isn’t getting off scot free from my brain either LOL. No amount of “princess’s” is ever gonna fly with my weeo weeo brain.
this has been a psa
mainly a psa of my brain weeo weeos
#DCB Comments#but the absolute worst offenders are people who overuse apostrophes and like#don't know how to write the plural of a word. today I saw someone write horse's to indicate more than one more horse#and I think the darkest depths of my soul finally cracked at the sight shjfgjhgs#this wasn't someone who speaks in broken English either or anything. they know how to speak the whole language just fine#also the other worst thing about my grammar brain is that I could absolutely get a job teaching English based on my knowledge alone#but I don't have an uwu master's degree uwu so getting teaching jobs even as freelance work is basically impossible#the world decides your worth based on how much you were willing to pay an institution for a certificate#and doesn't base you on your actual worth or knowledge so yeah that's great#can't wait until we're in an anime or video game where society's young decides that's bullshit and we're totally over it and rebel sjkfghju#also you know how you see those posts of ppl being like forget what you learned in school? yeah no don't do that with grammar#to an extent it's one thing (the really stupid ''rules'' like don't start a sentence with x word) and some of it was over the top#but there ARE actually legit reasons for some of those grammar rules; it's just that schools fail to teach them properly#I was extremely lucky to have very amazing English teachers for the most part ngl bc most schools don't teach even basic shit well#at least in my country. even in my school the stuff they taught was shit lol I just got very lucky to have great English teachers#but like for instance run on sentences are usually seen as an issue in writing because people lose their understanding of the sentence#if the sentence goes on too long with too many thoughts you'll probably forget what it was even about in the first place#if it's a WRITING style like a book or a fanfic or whatever it can make sense in some cases you just have to be thoughtful abt it!#but rly like I see people who can't even write basic English grammar who can speak it fluently and I'm like#what the fuck are these schools doing??? bc I can tell you what they're NOT doing e.e#this isn't limited to gen z btw I see ppl around my age who do this stuff with grammar too so... yikes#in fact I see people OLDER than my generation doing it too like... my own mom lmao#I'M SORRY I JUST HAD TO GET THIS OUT IT'S BEEN EATING AWAY MY EXISTENCE FOR MANY YEARS

man i have soooooo many thoughts abt the sasaki to miyano authors rules on reposting their manga panels 🥲
#because like .. at the end if that’s what the artist wants then there’s no way you can go against it because they Made the manga you Have to#respect their wishes because it’s their work and that’s obvious#but also . idk it diminishes all the excitement abt the manga#like you can no longer talk abt specific scenes or expressions or cute panels etc#this is what kinda made me lose interest in this authors works ngl it just .. doesn’t hit the same#but that is the artists wish so nothing can be done#like i get altering panels even by colouring and stuff but not being allowed to repost (without the official hashtag ofc) is rly sad. 😭#and i’m not talking like the entire chapter ofc but rly just little panels etc to help when you’re talking abt a specific scene#i do that sm with witch hat and jjk lol and it really elevates my excitement and love ?? and i love when other ppl talk back to me abt those#scenes#i think it’s also jarring because i’ve never seen other authors post abt this many specific rules but ig it’s common in japanese fandom but#we’re just not exposed to it#it’s like when you read a book and you wanna post abt certain quotes and lines#like how else do you reference that exact thing yknow other than showing it when it’s manga panels 😭

Is my mental health the worst it's been since leaving uni and being diagnosed properly? Yes! Are me and jo trying to do everything to avoid becoming homeless and placed in emergency housing even though no other authority seems to care very much about that? Yes! But did I have the ingredients for a mountain of bruschetta and did it make me feel a little better? Also yes!
#Blog post#Things have descended in the housing front ngl#The council is refusing to allow us to apply for council housing together bc I don't provide 24/7 care for Jo even though I do a fair bit#And we will both be much worse apart#We asked them to send the report and the name of our caseworker so we can appeal it#And turns out there's no written report and we don't have a caseworker 'bc there's just the 3 of us' which!!!!#Don't even know where to start with that!!!#We asked them to send something to us so they sent and e-mail saying that they're refusing our joint application bc it's not in the policy#And then attached the policy#Like!!! Not even citing specific paragraphs or rules!! We had to go through it#We've had one viewing in like a year/year and a half#And apparently we were in the final two for consideration but they chose a family so the kid didn't have to change school#Which like yeah changing school sucks especially in the middle of the year#But they would survive!#70% of landlords will not rent to people on benefits!!#Also many landlords won't allow basic accessibility changes to the property and she would#Yes I am bitter about a child's welfare and no it's not a good look#It really sucks me and jo are trying everything to not end up in emergency housing and like everyone else is trying to do the opposite#Can anyone just like real quick systemically change the entire housing market or the council house system? Like as a prank??

Your cousin???? Why
My new years fortune cookie did not tell me if be answering asks this year about newfound parent hood.
Uuuh how about a tl;dr?
Op, being in a bad situation previously and recently got out with sib, realized cousin was in similar bad situation and about half a year ago got custody of them.
There's been a bunch of challenges but what else can you expect?
Also parent-teacher conferences on this side of things are just as bad. Especially when the teachers say hey I need you for this time and I'm like Is there a way we can contact each other when im not at work???? (I work second shift, until February where my boss said that I can switch) And their like no choose from this paper or else.
Luckily my boss let me come in late that day.
#meowing to the abyss#parenthood#new to parenthood#Also kids now a days just straight up cussing at their guardians#I was trying to ask why they were up really late on a school night#and get told to shut up#like cuz#we suffered two different kinds of abuse#ngl I was maybe a jerk#I shut off our Wi-Fi and#told them Wed talk about that behavior in the morning as it is not okay and the rules#clearly stated on the whiteboard on the fridge#do State that there is no computer time past 7 like I get the whole#and some people are better suited for nightshifts#but school is during the day so I'm sorry it's unfair but you yourself helped pick the time to stop#if ppl are worried about schoolwork help#don't be#my lil brother is really good at all of it and works first shift so he helps them and I make lunches and prep dinners and things.#asks

#the INSTANT i saw this in the sidebar my alarm bells went off#its the lighting and the oddly generic style and how... strange... the shading and the folds in the fabric are#theres this generally unmoored look that ai generated images have to them. theres a stylistic internal consistency within the drawing#but when you look at it as a composition overall its perplexing and bizarre#i'd say the biggest tell for this one is the very odd fabric shading on the sleeve and the way the fabric folds look in general#the super generic ''pretty'' style and strange lighting being the second and third#artificial intelligence#anyway i loathe this stuff but for those of you who aren't aware. also shame on u tumblr (via @kkoraki)
He @radar, let's maybe not promote AI art that is not, at the absolute very least, labelled as AI art.
(To be fair, I can believe that the tumblr team just straight up did not know this was AI art.)
Secret Book Of The Arts
#I don't want to say at all because I do remember when that one 'gay 19th century navy officer' thing was going on#before the ethics started coming into the public consciousness. and I did like that post because the creator was 1 very clear on it being A#and 2 was much more interested in doing a tumblr collective analysis on the accidental symbolism of the piece.#and that was a very interesting play with how AI art and symbolism and tumblr culture work#this? just posting AI art and promoting it as your own? nah#also NGL the whole reason I clicked on it was to see if anyone else was critical/confused about the lighting on the woman's face#because it's just. questionable. the contrast with the clothing and the lack of highlight on her cheeks or reflection on her eyes#makes her a dark hole of murky features that you need to squint to see#because none of the planes of her face or reflective (wet like eyes or oily like a nose) are lit in a way that makes it easy to see her#she struggles to be the subject of her own damn painting both due to lighting and positioning (she's not rule of thirds or anything)#reminds me of those posts that talk about white photographers not knowing how to do lighting and capture for black models#tl;dr the thing that made me suspicious was the seemingly high-effort and seemingly lovely art piece of a black woman#that did not do the absolute most basic level of image design to make her the center and subject of the image#ai art#artificial intelligence#tumblr
