my grandparents somehow heard about the school situation and about the time i got sort of kidnapped by the penguin and now they want my brother and me to move in with them in metropolis because they don't think gotham is "a good environment for children" so now they're fighting with my parents on the phone
#i don't really want to move in the middle of high school#but maybe my brother should do it next year#he would have to change schools anyway#and my grandparents are sort of right#but we've all been fine so far#and this is our home#i honestly don't know what would be best#but it's not like they would ask either of us anyway#just gotham city things#only in gotham#gotham city#metropolis#the penguin#unreality

guess who's colorful markers showed up yesterday *unhinged panting after coloring for twelve hours straight*
#now we just wait for the pastels which havent even shipped.....#we ordered all of this stuff before the snow storm which caused a huge annoying FOMO enducing delay and then ohuhu suddenly blew up and#my markers got delayed even longer ):#but i love love love them so far. we've been using the chisel tips. cant wait to get my hands on the brush tips#(i got them with birthday money which obviously doesnt count as real money and thus can be used on nice markers)#(*stares at my bank account nervously* it's fine. im hyperfocused on coloring so it's fine.)#(.....*colors my bank account*)#my art#coloring#coco wyo#*inducing

when your main characters start dating after years of writing so they finally get to be like this
#rare WIP preview from me#this is in like. 10 episodes. lmfao#its been really hard working this far ahead#my editor isnt giving me any feedback and my friends are very busy so it's felt quite lonely#which is fine! for my friends I mean. but its my editors job to give me feedback...#but the webtoon editors are extremely extremely extremely overworked and my series is set to end so I understand its low priority#its not her fault its webtoons fault. however. its still demotivating...#oh well l m a o#I should be much further ahead ngl LMFAO I want like 12 done but I come back in 2 weeks.#we'll see#when I get really stressed out I go full gamer mode#and usually I'll sink like 60 hours (like 5 days) into a game and then I'm good and move on#but this recent game that grabbed me is. its too much actually#bit uncontrollable ngl I think its an ADHD thing I mostly have just quit playing videogames at all#cause its like yeah being stressed cause theres too much work to do is not going to be helped by losing a week and a half to a game...#and yet.#anyways the game is satisfactory#my friend bought it for me and we've been playing together#and our shared file has. 100 hours on it. and we still havent beaten the game#we're close to beating it and it's not like we're rushing or anything#cause its fun to fuck around and zap eachother or whatever#but it's got me doing math. the exact kind of math I love to do. optimization#and its reminding me yeah in another life id have been an engineer#I'm glad I'm an artist but its always weird like yeah this is easily a path I could have gone down#'artists hate math' speak for yourself doing math calms me down! I love math!#I love math and I love business. I'm almost the perfect artist but I hate advertising so. we can't have it all#anyways theyre so fucking cute its sickening. I love them so much. I could cry#WIP#lineart#time and time again

having sally yell at baby percy feels so fundamentally wrong. i didn't mind when she got frustrated with him in the pool because that was just one instance of sally losing her temper but now it's like oh. this is just how the show version of her is.
like. idk. one of sally's defining traits was that she never got mad at percy. that didn't mean she was weak. that was her strength. that she could pull through tough times by putting a smile on her face, so that she didn't scare percy, so that she could protect him.
i just feel like it would have been a much more well-defined scene if we got to see how sally manages to talk percy out of the car by. being nice?? coaxing him??? explaining the situation in a way he would understand instead of just saying "there are things i have to do that you don't understand" (if you say that to a kid they are 100% not going to listen to you bc. yeah they don't understand!! so you have to explain it in a way they WOULD understand!!)
if sally had already been dating smelly gabe at this point, she could have leveraged this. she could have put a funny spin on it and said "i'm just trying to get you away from smelly gabe's stinky gym shorts." if she wanted baby percy to not feel like she was abandoning him and separating him from the rest of society, she could have said "the kids in there are just like you." she could have given him a keepsake, to show she will always be with him. there are SO many ways the writers could have spun this and they just didn't. they went the easy way out.
all of these flashback scenes are painting a very unfortunate picture that percy didn't actually have a good relationship with his mom. and i know that's not the vibe the show is trying to go for, but they've got to understand!! that not everyone who's watched the show has the read the books! we don't all automatically know that sally and percy have the bestest mother-son relationship ever! if you only show sally being frustrated at baby percy, we start to think oh dang, maybe this whole time percy doesn't actually have a good relationship with his mom!
#uhhhh me#i think the tag is:#pjo show crit#also i don't think 'it's a character flaw' is a good defense#because sally DOES have a flaw. her flaw is that she bottles up all her problems!! she acts like she's fine but she isn't!#at the end of book 1 this is something she has to overcome when percy gives her medusa's head and tells her it's time to save herself!!#i don't see a need for this to change#i generally don't mind if an adaptation changes things but the change has to make sense and. like. be good??#and so far all the changes in the show have either been baffling or poorly executed#like idk maybe you shouldn't have marketed the show as the most accurate book adaptation we've been waiting for-#-if you're gonna make the most perplexing and unnecessary changes ever

as someone who normally reads a script over on the tv writing site every day while eating breakfast like it's the morning paper, but who didn't have time today because i'm trying to meet a deadline on my own script that i've been slow to work on due to an assortment of fire related stress as a resident of los angeles this week........ i am experiencing some severe fomo over these new spn script drops
#waaaaaa i want to read them now ;-;#but i'd have to speed read to get through a whole one while i pause work for lunch#and i prefer to take my time#also i don't think i'm allowed to call myself an angeleno yet#i've been living here five years and i think i have to hit a decade before that's allowed#hence using the awkward descriptor of ''resident of los angeles''#also if anyone is worried -- we're in a little pocket of the county that has remained safe thus far#so we're fine though we've had go-bags ready all week just in case#but i know multiple people who've lost their homes#thankfully they all evacuated in time but the loss is devastating#and i've been glued to the watch duty app any time i haven't been writing (read: attempting to write)#constantly checking against google maps whenever it looked like something was getting close to people i know#it's genuinely horrible and i don't think anyone here has slept much this week#one thing we *are* dealing with directly at our place is the hazardous air quality. it smells absolutely toxic & is full of ash#enough that it looks like flurries of snow in the air#luckily i never stopped masking so wear an n95 whenever i've had to go outside#cass says things

you've heard of: aroacespec "is this person flirting with me" confusion, now get ready for: Does this person think I'm flirting with them (and also are they flirting "back" with me) because I accidentally bumped into them a lot?
#new jersey girl seems to really like me that makes me happy#nobody's been attracted to me before#but it'll make me sad if she asks me out#because even though I LOVE her i think i'd have to say no just because i really imagine myself#with a boyfriend far more than a girlfriend lately and i don't want to put her into a relationship that might end up feeling like#misgendering...#aro#ace#aroace#aroacespec#aromantic#arospec#greyromantic#greyro#I said this#we've been walking all over campus together and she's um. not a very considerate walker i keep#almost getting pushed off the path so that's whyh i keep bumping into her lol#but also she seems to like standing/sitting near me?#and i said 'i think my face is a little...' because i was thinking it felt like it got too much sun#and she was like 'i think your face is a little too-- wait what did u say?'#and i said i didn't even use an adjective but said burnt/red was what i should have siad#and she just said 'i think your face is a little'#like is that an oblique compliment??#okay the funniest part is yesterday she said some random girl came up to her and said she looked pretty and she wasn't sure if it was#flirting or just a compliment so she doesn't even know what flirting is either lol#also she calls me Data now bc i told her about hwo my uncle said my parents consult me like picard consults data lol#tbh maybe i gave her the wrong signals by moisturizing when she was in my room last night?#(kept sticking my hand under my clothes. my roommate brought her in right after i showered)#i asked my roommated if that was weird and she thought it was fine but she might not be the best metric

Why have you been thinking about that.
#panels#bonemeal says silly stuff#tim drake#dc#I mean I know WHY. it's just kinda funny#all his like other thoughts we've seen so far have been vivid day dreams and nightmares of worst case scenarios#(that he almost experienced irl!!!)#and he's also KINDA been doing the Everything Is Fine! but to a much lesser extent than last time#I dunno. it's much funnier for me cause like. we know it all ends up ok. (and cause im. so tired. I should sleep more)

kinda disappointed with how this weekend went. I mean, it wasn't bad! but it was our first weekend in the new apartment, and I/we wanted to get a lot done. I already did a lot during the week (a lot for me, not a lot for most people I guess), but there's lots of things that I can't do/can't do on my own, either because I'm too short or not strong enough or I need someone else to hold something or whatever. which realistically just won't get done during the week because my husband works full time, so. it sort of sucks that only one very small, unimportant thing got done. 😔
#like. there's no rush. not really.#I mean we do get our kitchen in two weeks so we'll have to have space to install it then lol#but other than that it's fine#except everyone constantly makes me feel like it isn't.#they're so judgmental and shitty about it#yeah it's chaotic and messy as hell. there's boxes everywhere. we've only found some of our kitchen stuff so we're mostly eating microwave#meals with plastic utensils. all of that stuff#so fucking what? it doesn't affect any of them! I wish they'd just stop commenting on it but they don't.#well. at least it's just over the phone now. I haven't seen my or my husband's family since we moved in and I'm not planning to anytime soon#precisely because they will not stop doing this no matter how I react to it#like in what world would that ever do anything good? it doesn't motivate me to get shit done any faster. because guess what? I'm already#going as fast as I can.#like. I've had (maybe still have) a middle ear infection and been on antibiotics all week and I still got so much done! that's good enough#and this part is fun to me! I like that nothing is finished and everything is possible and new and different#it does also stress me out but so far it mostly feels like an adventure#anyway. I'm just venting but seriously why is everyone I know irl so mean all the time?!#personal

i'm the only person in the house without COVID so far.
never felt like a final girl in a horror movie before, not sure how i feel about it now lol
#i jest i jest it's fine#we've got a pretty solid plan of attack for keeping me safe from the Goo and making sure everyone else is properly taken care of#i'm very excited to have a Job and have that job be Bring Things To People it's my favorite task-type#we're taking all the necessary precautions to make sure this doesn't get outside of the house as much as we possibly can#i've been super productive today so far though#and i've got a quick trip to the store tomorrow planned for groceries and necessities that CVS didn't have today#and the goal is to stay healthy.#*crossing my fingers*#vaccinations my friends - get them#i'm pretty sure it's the main reason we're all doing as well as we are so far

Been trying to move my stuff out of my friend's flat since Monday and have had no such luck. We were hoping to finally get it sorted today but that doesn't seem possible so now we gotta try wait until Saturday unless we want to carry on moving everything box by box on the buses
#student living#ace is a mess#we've made two trips by bus so far but its two buses to hers from mine and then a ten minute walk from the bus stop back to my accommodatio#which isnt fun with the smaller piece of storage but with the bigger boxes? its just not gonna be feasible theyre like 30kg#and some are fragile as well that its just not really worth the risk of pssing of the bus drivers even attempting it even if it was feasibl#i moved everything by accessibility taxi at summer just fine but theres apparently not any available currently#ive called multiple different taxi services and theyve all said they dont have any so thats been fun#went to reception and she suggested a man with a van service off of facebook so gonna see if we can sort that for saturday#which is my next day off but today was the only other day we both had off so gonna have to be before she starts evenings#also dont have any wifi or cell phone reception in the actual halls so just calling has been a nightmare

I know hex said she didn't expect anything for the vector graphics I used in breaking stasis but that just didn't sit right with me... I know I've literally said those words as well years before when I was in a similar situation and like. I did mind. a little bit. you know. and I think I care more about maintaining a good relationship with her than saving this handful of money that won't even matter that much later on
#just thinking thoughts...#AND I JUST??? LOVE HER ART SO MUCH...#and like... I'm still sad abt my like. not really a falling out but like. idk. we've never been as close as we used to be...#honestly relieved they aren't really doing content creation anymore as far as I know#I guess it's fine for just fun and games but like. idk. idk.#I think like. it's fine if like you're like hey I need help with something#let's all hang out and like. punch holes in my merch or whatever#and you treat them to something nice but it's mostly a friend hangout and stuff#but things like art and video editing where the other person is just quietly at their desk doing work for you somewhere far away#you're not even keeping them company... you're not even showing that you're putting the same amount of time in.#IDK! ! ! !

more neighbours have put up a Fuck Trudeau flag it's time to move
#my parents have been talking about selling the house for years#and being surrounded by far right whackadoodles who are either explicitly homophobic or just don't mind aligning themselves with an#inherently homophobic movement and also totally fine with aligning themselves with a group that tortured me for a month#yeah. sounds like a damn good time to actually put the house on the market for real#we've lived here since 1989 so as much as we're all done with this house it's hard to pull the trigger#but this might be the final straw#the only saving grace may be the new neighbours who haven't shown up yet#(even though they're just flippers they might be sane)
