every time i walk into my local library i make sure to look at the receptionists with big wet eyes before heading to my corner to study bc i really want them to hire me as a part-time aide
#not even bc i need the money like it would just be so good for my mental health#extra cash would be nice but i also just like existing there#i don't need another thing on my plate but this feels like anxiety relief more than anything#esp bc w all my pre-med stuff sometimes i feel guilty for reading recreationally. this would force me to be somewhere i love to be#i WANT to be around books for 6 hours at a time. stacking. shelving. cleaning those precious books#i will burst into tears if they don't let me#i literally know the dewey decimal system by heart i'm perfect for this#p

Hi!
I'm a fellow artist whose trying to start a Patreon, but I'm feeling conflicted because of the payment options for non us content creators being basically only paypal and payoneer, both on the boycott list.
first of all, i was wondering if you're pro-palestine: second of all, if you are, i was wondering - since you have a patreon - how do you deal with that and if you've found some compromises (giving out some money in donation or similar things).
I really like your art style and look up to you a lot so I'm trying to ask this to all artists I genuinely get inspiration from, also to kind of build a sense of community :') no pressure in answering tho!
-🐈
Hello anon ❤️ of course I'm pro-Palestine, I don't think I'd be deserving of any respect if I wasn't. And I understand your concerns.
(For what it's worth, Paypal and Payoneer aren't listed as boycott targets on the official BDS boycott list, but other activist groups have called for people to boycott their services after Paypal made clear it's zionist bias. However, I know that third parties still often use it to fundraise for their Palestinian targets so...not sure where general sentiment is currently at.)
An unfortunate part of operating on Patreon is acknowledging there's some parts of it you simply don't have control over. Their management is fickle and frustrating and they offer very limited payment options. I don't publicise this often because I think it'd come off as like I'm looking for praise, but yes, I donate a significant percentage of my income every month to various causes and that's how I operate within these limits. There are some people who'd say its unethical to still use a platform on the boycott list, which I can understand, but working within these parameters allows me to donate thousands of dollars to people in need, which I wouldn't be able to do at all if I wasn't on this platform.
I've opened commissions before to fundraise specifically for Palestine, which is an angle you could consider if you really don't want to use Patreon. I'd do it more often, but I've realised that commission bursts like that burn me out really fast, and Patreon is a way that I can consistently put aside a portion of money to donate.
I hope that was helpful ❤️

Behold. A tangible representation of 8+ hours of my life: crochet pumpkins made for my sister
#crochet#pumpkins#fall#i am so tired dude#the big one alone took more than 5 hours#it uses a very labor intensive stitch#and obviously it's quite large#also I got like 1/3 thru it at first and had to undo it bc i made a big mistake#but i didn't factor that into my time calculation#just the one I'm giving her is like 5-6 hours of work easily#while I love doing things for people I love this was a good reminder why i don't work freelance#and why I don't set up an Etsy shop like people keep saying i could#this was a lot of crocheting in not much time and I'm really happy to be done with it#i wanted to do other things during this time but didn't feel like I could. and i got really tired of it#which is a bummer bc i crochet for enjoyment not extra cash or anything#so I'd prefer to enjoy it#I'll have to do a different hobby for a couple months haha#anyway admire my pumpkins!#soon they will be on their way to a good home#and if you're about to ask if you can buy some#the answer is no. sorry#😅 I'm not doing this again until next year at least#id in alt text

Ask: A pirate's first kiss! 🤭💕
Anonymous asked:
Oooh great taste in questions already! I always love reading kissing headcanons myself, never made them before though :p
Pirate au as kidnapped depicted from @mega-punani ! Go check 'm out, there's cute skele pictures there too~
In this case, you and your skelle are both into eachother and you both kinda know it, but this is the first proper kiss on the lips! ...teeth?
Uuuuhhhh you're smoochin! Enjoy <3
Sans
First kiss huh? If he initiated it, it probably came paired with a pun. In fact, he would be making hundreds of kissing and relationship puns to try and help you catch on to what he's going for. When you finally realize he is asking for a kiss, he gauges your reaction, looking to see if you're up for it. You can be as shy about it as you want, with his judgement eye he can see right through it!
"Well, if you insist~"
It's a very sweet kiss, and he has a dreamy, almost smug smile on his face afterwards, teasing you a little bit if you look very flustered. Don't be fooled though, the smug smile and teasing are there to hide his own bashfulnes. You don't need a devil fruit to realize it though, seeing as his entire face is bright blue: he absolutely adores you.
If you catch him off guard by initiating first and out of the blue, he buffers for a few seconds before blushing hard and hiding his eyes with his hat, not able to stop smiling all day. You can watch him trying and failing to come up with a pun about it the first minute after.
He'll probably find you at some point during the day to return the favour.
Papyrus
Oh dating manual my beloved...
So papyrus is casually suave and totally swept you off off your feet when your relationship was still completely platonic, but now that you both feel the romance growing... he gets kinda flustered lol. He has no idea of how much natural charisma he has, so now that he wants to impress you he sticks to the book... the Dating Manual!
He meticulously searches for the right place, time and circumstances to have a romantic first kiss to, which we all know means it's highly unlikely to happen anytime this year. He does, however, loudly proclaim romantic expressions of love to you when he deems the time to be right (or on accident) and he is always hiding the little book behind his back when you walk in on him reading it. It is very, very clear that he wants a kiss. Please save him.
If you want him to take initiative, you'll have to make it very clear you are expecting a kiss, *right now*. You read somewhere that uhhhh seeing two seagulls fight over a scrap of bread after having sailed north for at least two hours means a romantic kiss is bound to happen! Oh, if only something that romantic would happen to me...
There is a 30% chance he'll both take the hint and take the step, but when he finally does, well...
"Wowie...."
If you happen to kiss him somewhat out of the blue, he short-circuits- trembling a little and glowing pink and orange. Tell him he looks like a beautiful sunset and watch him flounder. Will excitedly tell Sans about the whole thing. Multiple times. (Sans is a very supportive bro and is very happy for him)
Blue
Your first kiss with Blue may have been a spontaneous, spur of the moment kinda thing, like many of your adventures with this man.
As he held u princess style in an epic rescue from something very dangerous (you slipped), you aimed to dramatically smooch him on the cheek as thanks. But then he angles his head in an unexpected way and oh my...
He freezes, eyelights expanding, and slowly becomes completely blue. Before you can apologize, he starts running around the ship with you, holding you tight and loudly giggling as he is overtaken by excitement and glee. You are so sweet he is on an artificial sugar high!
Even if it's not a spur of the moment kiss, it will likely still be up to you, to some degree, to make the first move. It's not that Blue doesn't want to kiss you! Heavens no! It's just, well... He knows that he can miss the occasional social que and he doesn't wanna fuck this up by hurrying you or misreading your intentions, so he just flirts dramatically and hopes you take the hint to take initiative. Just for the first time though, after that he has a free pass and boy is he gonna use it.
The flirts are pretty forward, you can't miss em: things like kabedoning you and looking at you expectantly, or showing up with a rose in his mouth. Even if it doesn't lead to a kiss, he hopes it will make you laugh!
Stretch
With Stretch, it pretty much happened on accident.
You were sitting next to each other, your head against his shoulder, listening to him softly playing some tunes as the sun set on the sea. The boat was anchored, and the others were busy or tuckered out after the long day. It was just the two of you, the waves and a soft melody.
He looked to his right and found your face just- so close to him. You both just kinda studied each other for a while, lost in thought and completely at ease...
When did you start kissing?
His reaction to it is fireworks going off in his head, but definitely the kind that fitted the occasion. He didn't even take the time to be embarrassed about it, instead just basking in the moment of having you so close.
Red
As flirtatious as this man is, he will pretty much never initiate the first kiss. He'll initiate after the initial kiss for sure, but he has a lot of respec juice and since he knows he's a bit much sometimes, he doesn't wanna overstep or pressure you into something you are not ready for. He's pretty used to being rejected for being crude so might as well let you come to him.
If you are having a rare tender moment, and you initiate a kiss from there... this man will be in the clouds for a few days: very distracted, uncaring even for his more interesting duties and sporting a huge dreamy grin which grows when you are in the same room with him. His brother is worried he's going to melt.
If, however, you decided to kiss him because you are sick of the teasing flirts he keeps throwing your way, he will be VERY smug about it. Also it will not actually stop his teasing flirts. But you do both get a kiss out of it so it may have been worth it.
Besides the tender moment, there is no way to surprise him with a kiss. He is always waiting for you to kiss him. Always ready for a kiss. Bring 'm in, those kisses! A huge simp, this one.
Edge
Edge does, occasionally, take a break. When most chores have been done, someone else takes the lead for a while or when the crew is simply having some down time, dear Edge gets to relax with some tea and a good book as well. And if it is at all possible, he shares these rare moments of downtime with you.
He usually distracts himself from his crush on you by being busy, so now that he is sitting down and taking his time... he may actually be forced to confront his feelings, at least to himself. After heaving a heavy sigh, he steels his nerves and decides this should be the moment to kiss you. What other times will be as appropriate as this?
Edge takes the time to tilt your face towards him, looking you in he eyes and glancing at your lips... and that's where he reaches the edge of his courage. Luckily, you feel the same, and his set up makes it easy for you to simply close the small gap left to kiss him. Edge remains quite red the entire evening, but he tries to keep it cool. Please think he's calm and collected and that he doesn't get desperately embarrassed and infatuated upon receiving a single wonderful kiss. He's cool! He's never been more collected!! Don't look at him like that!!!
Razz
Ah the tsundere. Let's see... Maybe after a long tiring day, when everyone save for you and him has finally gone to bed, you find him still buried deep in his maps, clearly trying to distract himself from everything that happened. You softly convince him that the quality of the map may suffer if he keeps going when this tired. You even hug him close and he lets you, just this once. You give him your first kiss to his forehead as he is in your arms. As he slowly turns purple you expect him to turn you away, yelling or mumbling something about you being a distraction. Instead, he simply grumbles something along the lines of "not even doing it properly if you're going to do it at all" as he smashes his face into yours. It's actually very nice, and you guys keep the sweet embrace and kisses up until you decide to leave his little mapping office and go to sleep. He seems well rested the next day, if a little purple, and the crew is blessed with some lovely weather after the heavy rains from the past few days.
He won't do much pda with you after, almost making it seem like he doesn't care, but he only shares this with you when no one can disturb you both.
Cash
May have been a little shit who tried to dare you into kissing him, or to make bets in which you'd have to kiss him if you lost (and he'd have to kiss you if he lost). He didn't expect you to actually accept his dare, especially if you have declined his dares before, but now he's sweating bullets: he likes having the excuse that it's just a joke or just to tease you, but now that you're standing in front of him expectantly he is once again forced to recognize that he genuinely really wants this... and he's so scared to fuck it up. He genuinely believes he doesn't deserve something like this.
He teases you again to divert his attention but you take that as a sign to just get this over with and kiss him. The kiss melts away any doubt he just had, and when you release him he's just kinda standing there, buffering.
You're kinda disappointed seeing no reaction from him. Maybe he did only mean it as a joke... but as you turn away to do literally anything else he finally loads back in and starts asking for increasingly dumb bets and dares trying to get another kiss.
Bear
Bears first kiss, if given, was probably to calm you down. It was almost instinct: you were upset, and he was already swaying you side to side gently, waiting for the flow of tears to stop. He wants to help, to do more... so he lifts your chin and gives you a gentle but firm kiss on the forehead, as he remembers someone having done for him when he was younger, one of few sweet memories of days long past.
You look up at him with wide eyes, now still, and he notices the crying has slowed to a stop as you watch him in fascination. Neither of you remember who leaned in after that.
Cinnamon
Gosh he wants to kiss you. He wants to kiss you so badly!! But he is very nervous to initiate. Is it the right time? The right place? Do you feel the same? He thinks you do, you are always so sweet to him! You help him out when you can! And you are respectful of his boundaries- but oh please take initiative and put an end to his suffering!!
He'll make plan after plan to initiate, even asking Papyrus and Blue for help, only to chicken out for some reason. At some point the rest of the crew gets involved in trying to get this over with, so now if you don't initiate, the way your first kiss goes may depend on them:
Cash would trip Cinnamon into you repeatedly, Red locks you both into a room until you make out, and Razz just straight up tells you to get it over with so Cinnamon will stop nervously tapping his cane on his cabin roof.
How he reacts when you finally initiate depends on your intensity: if you are soft and sweet with him he is blushing hard but mostly just heart eyed, but if you are, *ahem*, intense with him, he pretty much faints in your arms, anime-comedy style. It's very cute ;)
Thank you for reading! If you enjoyed this and wish to send an ask as well, please read this post and maybe my pinned post as well! See ya around <3
#sans x reader#papyrus x reader#pirate au#papyrus au#sans au#homemade fanworks#undertale au#homemade answers#ohhhh to kiss a cute skeleman...#Cash *joking but also down hard*: so if you lose you have to kiss me and if you win i have to kiss you#Reader without hesitation: aight bet#Cash: ???????Cool??????#Also if you kinda randomly kiss Bear first he'll stop working for a bit and then very shyly ask you to do it again. It's very sweet.#didn't want to break the flow of his piece though so it's here in the extra's menu <3

People would call you communist for this (lol) but the solution for the housing crisis we have all over is to set a minimum and maximum price per square meter that you can rent/sell a place for and that maximum price per meter should be adjusted so that it never exceeds a specific reasonable percentage of local salaries. Also, governments should be tougher on places not being fit to rent. No, you shouldn't be able to rent anything less than 45m² as 'a flat', that's either a room or a storage unit.
#liveblogging my life#the actual communist answer is that we shouldn't have to pay for housing or food at all#and if we want to go on vacation there should be communal resorts that people can stay and do activities in#but since that's utopian and far-fetched#something else that i would do is to implement this same policies for food prices#food prices shouldn't be able to rise padt a certain amount#also each person should only be able to own 2-3 properties max#taking into account both stuff you buy and stuff you inherit#(idk how you factor split inheritances into that but we'd work it out)#and you should only be able to rent out one of them btw#and your rental income is split 50/50 with your local government AFTER taxes#no hoarding that money to yourself you hand some of it over to the community#you shouldn't be able to be a landlord like as a job#it should be like a side hustle that brings you some extra cash a month#but it's not able to buy you a whole house or several#oh there should also be a cap on the number of rental properties per town that are allowed to be rented out to tourists#anyway vote for me

Hello my loves I'm sorry I dropped off the face of the planet right after opening commissions!! A couple of very stressful interpersonal problems and a really gnarly URI/chronic illness stuff stopped me in my tracks but I'll be back posting art soon! I'll likely take down and remake my commission sheet because for now I'll have to close my commissions and focus on personal art until I'm stronger again. I'm so sorry for the confusion and I hope I'll get to make stuff for you soon!!!
#itll be more organized next tim#i rushed to post it because im getting ready to move and wanted some extra cash but...the time for that was swallowed up by sickness#and now ive gotta pack!! ugh#anyway thank you so much for your patience and interest it means the world to me 😭#art tag

#fuck this man. i just need extra cash and you're telling me i can't fucking do doordash#because too many other people are doing doordash#go fuck yourself#does someone want to come to the Denver metro area and start sniping doordashers

well, Life By You has been officially cancelled so
😭
#salad's gaming corner#non writing#non valiant#i can't speak to things going on at paradox internally#but as an outsider#i love their games but i have grown more and more concerned about their movement towards cash grabs in recent years#they can give any reasons they want in a forum post about the cancellation#but ultimately i think it boils down to the fact that they weren't willing to spend the extra money on more development time#another factor might have been the very rocky start of cities 2#as a publisher they've also kind of been shitting the bed on some of their more recent dlcs#i was really looking forward to the vision of the developers though#but also i dunno what kind of layoffs they experienced if any#but maybe they didn't have a big enough team to complete work on the timetable they wanted#either way i'm very sad#i was looking forward to it#and the sims still desperately needs a competitor#lets hope paralives still makes it
