When school starts back up again im gonna search for people who will want to hang and watch movies
#twirls mustache thiughtfully#i need to get better at being comfortable with doing mundane things#hanging out makes me anxious Like i gotta show up with my best#i gotta chill out#whenever im hanging with someone new the same 3 things go through my head#1 Is this person getting bored 2 Do they think i dislike them or 3 the worst one that haunts me Do they think im just some clueless twerp#i hate the thought of coming across as clingy or childish#i feel like it;s so obvious when i like someone or want to be around them and That means i need to be shot or something#i feel like#the people i want to hang out with the most are the most likely to raise an eyebrow at the fact#i saw a group of people with skateboards heading out late one night and was like god damn i wish i could go#i know that the the only one stopping me is myself#but idk. i feel like i’m not cool enough for most people#so just being Me isnt enough to convince someone to want me around#kinda had a cool experience that night my roommate invited me to hang with her friends#it chipped away a little at that fear#because i thought everyone in there was so cool and they seemed to like me just as much#and i was just being myself. certain things made it a little easier#they told me i had a bed whenever i wanted it And to come over whenever i wanted to#the guy who intimidated me the most ended up coming to the park and feeding ants with me and it was great#i saw him again later that day and he went eebieeee!! and he sounded so happy to see me#i feel like i’m being socialized from square one. i’ve been such a recluse up till the last couple of years#IM BAD AT SMALLTALK TOO. ABNORMALLY BAD. i feel like im reading shit off of a card#can we just skip all that#i miss my friend from highschool who tried to sell me on cannibalism when we’d barely spoken#here i stand 5’4 psychologically naked and trembling in my jesse pinkman ass getup#does anyone want to fix me#even after trimming ghis down it still feels crazy vulnerable. whatever#i’ll probably just delete this all later anyways

You know what day it— V-Tamer?! Happy Odaiba Memorial Day! 🎉 And Happy 25th Anniversary V-Tamer! ❤️ [Odaiba Memorial Redraw 2022] [Redraw 2021] [Redraw 2020]
#Digimon#Odaiba Day#Odaiba Memorial Day#V-Tamer#Screenshot redraw#My art#If it wasn't V-Tamer's 25th anniversary this year I might've done Zero Two (since the movie's happening) or something else#But I like those nice round anniversary numbers so I figured I'd take advantage of it while I can#Which is also why I didn't do Savers this year#To be fair some seasons have overlapping anniversary years so I can't do nice round numbers for them all#At least not without skipping years lmao#So this will just have to do-- but it's fine besides we love and appreciate V-Tamer in this house#This bizarre story just continues#I'm gonna have to start making that calendar bigger so I can fit everyone in there 'cause it's getting cramped#It's funny how all these redraws despite my attempts look nothing like each other

There's something about like. A certain genre of posts / Online Opinions about insecurity/depression/misery/complaints that are so unhelpful that they wrap right around to being straight up hilarious. and it's the ones that are more or less written to the tone of "Feeling bad? That's gross!" Like, just so you know, don't voice your insecurities/ have low self esteem, because that's offputting! You're gross and weird. Don't be insecure about that, though. That would be stupid if you felt insecure about people disliking you for being insecure. Not attractive. You should be thinking about being as attractive as possible. You shouldn't make comments about suicide, even if you're suicidal! Keep those thoughts entirely to yourself. Make sure nobody around you knows you're thinking about this. It would Make Them Uncomfortable. It's better to keep these thoughts in your head where they can fester. Don't post OR talk to friends with complaints about you feeling miserable or depressed. Tbh people who are sad/upset a lot? Kinda a red flag! You are probably miserable because you're a bad person and you've brought this on yourself. If you don't have friends, it's because you're awful to be around. Easy! Solved the problem for you. And no, there is no nuance to this, got it? So, make sure to feel bad about feeling bad, but don't feel bad about it, because, well, that's just gross. And annoying! You might've wanted your brain rotted thoughts to be Peer Reviewed, you might have just needed to vent- you might've been hoping for some comfort, to get things off your chest. Well, don't! Don't talk about thoughts or feelings that are negative with your friends, you'd be burdening them and that's only meant for THERAPY. #SponsoredbyBetterHelp #MentalHealth like, DAMN. that's so helpful. you're so good at helping. I um really liked the part where these are all hard and fast rules that encourage keeping feelings bottled up and keeping your friends at arm's length. That's really funny of you.
#I FEEL LIKE COMPLAINING RN in the context of this alternate universe these posts live in. that makes me evil rn. I may not even keep#the post up. but I Needed to complain about these bc I hate seeing them#really funny and good because it very much feeds into that part of the brain where you go wait am I stupid? am I horrible? am I annoying?#before you express any kind of personal feelings. from feeling insecure alll the way down the spectrum to feeling like your life is over#before anyone How Dare You Say We Piss On The Poor-s at me YES there is a nuanced version of this#which is. you can make someone feel like shit (A Fellow Sufferer Of The Mental Eelnesses) by using them as your dumping ground#in excess and usually with no regard for how they feel and without Regular conversations inbetween#and in a one-sided way where they can't do the same and complain with you as a sounding board in return#don't tell new friends you hardly know abt THE MOST personal shit you can possibly think of. there are steps being skipped here#right? we know this. we all know it. setting a boundary is a thing. overwhelming a person is a thing#on the other hand there is such a thing as a friend who IS okay to listen and wants to help. and friends who relate.#maybe talking abt personal stuff makes ppl feel closer sometimes. just a thought! maybe not everything is Emotional Labor. maybe just maybe#but like come on. these are almost intentionally unhelpful posts#long post

the worst part of tybw is how much of it is about killing off women for Man Pain (tm)
#there's just! so much of it!!#and for what?? earlier bleach has a couple of dead wives but largely isn't like this!#what if we had skipped it all and just done more cool fights like renji vs uryuu?#what if we had skipped it all for filler episodes where they went to a hot spring or they had an idol contest or something????#or at the very least like--could Kyouraku have more than 1 microsecond of Main Pain for his bestie/soul mate?#can Rukia have some Woman Pain from her captain dying?#can someone give a single shit about Kira?#god it's just SO TEDIOUS i am just SO SO TIRED#at least we have fanfic#Kubo couldn't even bring himself to write scene a where Mayuri showed a single crumb of affection for Nemu he had to filter it through AKON

did you think act 2 had a dip in quality when in comes to writing? i've seen so many people complaining and i can't, for the life of me, understand why, apart from people having these really personal expectations that weren't met (vi's pitfighter era being just the montage, caitlyn not spelling out her inner turmoils, isha's entire existence, jinx being family oriented instead of a freedom fighter, sky is also pissing people off lol), and I'm just so confused bc idk if I'm just easier to please, or if my lack of expectations just allowed me to enjoy the story plain and simple
I think there's a fair chance that many of the people complaining didn't watch season 1 until all three acts were released and aren't used to watching Arcane as a week to week experience; a huge percentage of the people in this fandom only joined it around the time they saw an "oil and water" gif set. No shade, of course. I can understand why people weren't jumping to watch women written by Riot, but that does color how you're going to view the pacing of a season.
This very well might be the first time a lot of those complaining built up expectations of where the story would head next, how they'd watch the struggle play out between Zaun and Piltover, only to see things they wanted to watch in depth get covered in a montage.
The fact that a single montage tells us everything we need to know about where Vi is at and what she's been up to is actually good, economical storytelling, but that's not the kind of thing people are used to in most shows. If you go back and watch the pilot of Arcane, so many things happen in that one episode. You get almost a full season of TV in a single 42 minutes of Arcane. A lot of other shows are just filling time, running in place until one of the two or three big moments for the whole season can happen a few episodes later.
That's not how Arcane works now or ever.
I imagine if some people had watched season 1 week to week — with lots of time to imagine what came next while at the edge of their seat �� they would have been upset that we never saw the three youngest girls growing up. Act 1 ends with this huge cliffhanger and then we jump an unspecified amount of time into the future. We don't spend time with Vi in jail, we don't actually see any of the trauma alluded to. We don't see the tension in Caitlyn's relationship with her mom and how that plays out over time, which is a pretty huge part of season 2. We don't see Jinx's transformation into the damaged girl she becomes. All of that happens off screen and is only implied.
The techniques people are complaining about this season are exactly the same as last time, when they loved the show. But if you watched everything all at once before — no time to build up an imagined result that didn't pan out — and were reassured by how much you liked the payoff, then maybe you didn't even notice these things that you can hyper analyze while you wait 7 days for the next drop.
Hell, I saw multiple people surprised that introducing tension into Vi and Caitlyn's relationship has already paid off so well because it led to, you know... tension. Some people are so used to shows not doing anything that they are surprised when actually doing things can turn out to be interesting.
I think a lot of the things you say people are complaining about are probably going to be covered in act 3. Jinx has always been family oriented. She only cared for the found family she had with Vander, and then Silco took that place. She didn't give a shit about anyone else working with him, and actively made their lives harder just for fun. It's going to take some effort and time to move her from that pretty self-interested place she's always occupied to being some kind of freedom fighter risking herself for strangers, and Isha was a vital part of getting her there.
I also think there's a really strong chance that isn't even Sky, but rather a manifestation of her created by the Hextech/Void/Whatever that consumed her using her as a puppet to manipulate Viktor into spreading its influence further and faster. But who knows! There's an entire three episodes left and, again, a single episode of Arcane covers so much and always has. None of us can actually know where the stories will be one episode later, let alone three.
Look, for all I know, this might not pan out. We never know if a show is going to stick the landing one season to the next. But they're not really doing anything differently from last time, so I don't see a reason to panic or complain yet.
#arcane spoilers#arcane s2 spoilers#arcane#i know so much of fandom now is also meta#predicting things based on trends#and there ARE things you can predict with this show#but arcane will also just skip far into the future and ignore all the things you were pretty sure you were right about#and i think that's a thing that bothers people too tbh#how can you prove you love the show most if it won't even let you be right about things!#and hey when i write fic i want to think i get to understand the characters enough#that i could theoretically predict their actions#we all get like this#but arcane changes up the circumstances so much so QUICKLY#that suddenly the characters are doing things you never predicted#anonymous#answers

kinda fascinating to be in a situation where I've had to call / online chat with insurance representatives during the whole UH CEO fallout. I have BCBS and maaaybe they're always this helpful but idk, they just seem so responsive and taking extra steps to help me out and it turns out the issue I'm having isn't even on their side, it's the dentist's! also their online chat is a real person??? I don't have to work around the AI before it finally transfers me??? Incredible
anyway turning this post into a psa to 1) ALWAYS check that your medical bills match what your insurance's Explanation of Benefits (EOB) reads (you do this by checking what amount your insurance says "patient owes" in the EOB and if your bill doesn't match that, your provider is overcharging you) and 2) DO NOT Get Your Dental Care At Great Expressions Holy Shit I'm Pissed
My wife and I went to the dentist in fall 2022 for the first time since the pandemic started, and the bills we both received were so high i've never gone again since then, because i don't wanna spend 500 bucks on a basic cleaning + X-rays. But my wife has continued to go twice a year cuz her teeth suck so the frequent check-up matters more for her.
And lordy, we've been naive lol. We've heard dental is expensive so we've just been resigned to the high costs; we also both have terrible executive functioning around all things financial and are woefully under-educated about how bills and insurance work — but the latest bill we got was just too damn much and I finally mustered up the spoons to figure shit out.
Aaaand it turns out that, while the dentist charged nearly one thousand dollars for her three fillings, the EOB shows we only owe $128. Buck. Wild.
So I've gone through every charge we've gotten over the years and they are all hundreds of dollars higher than the EOB. Great Expressions has been taking advantage of our ignorance and naivety to rob us for two fricking years.
If I understand what one insurance rep told me, since Great Expressions has a contract with BCBS they're supposed to charge us an in-network rate, which is far cheaper than out-of-network rates. Basically they send their proposed bill to our insurance, who send back a fraction of the money proposed as decided in the contract between them; insurance also tells the dentist the cost the dentist can then charge us.
But Great Expressions is pocketing the insurance money and then charging us the remainder of their original proposed cost instead of the contracted rate. So they're clearly aware that we are in-network, but still charging us like we're out-of-network. WTF
Anyway thank you BCBS reps who helped me figure all this out, incredible to actually have some non-AI customer service in this age lol. And everyone else please wish me luck as I make a chart of each dental bill we've gotten since 2022 versus what the EOB states — and then take it to the dental clinic in person because they are Not Helpful over the phone lemme tell you
The plan is to try to talk it out with them myself, and if I can't get them to listen to me I'm going to call an BCBS insurance rep while in the clinic with them so they can talk it over lmao. And if that doesn't get me the past years' charges back...idk if i can consult a lawyer or whatever but I'm gonna get this damn money back.
also we're going to get a new damn dentist. obviously
#log#if someone reading this Happens to be a legal professional of some kind#and wants to let me know how likely they think it is i can get all this money back...pray tell#i'm just SO furious because that fall 2022 we weren't as financially stable as we are now#and our dental bill made things more precarious#and i just think of how many people are barely making ends meet#who might go into debt or have to skip meals to pay a bill so unexpectedly high#and i RAGE. if they're doing this to other people too i feel like i need to idk#get a lawyer?? tip someone(??) off to look into it??? they can't keep doing this

I'm saying this right now anyone speaking new Pokémon content into the world at tomorrow's Nintendo Direct better SHUT THE FUCK UP that IS A THREAT
I need the Pokémon company to learn that we can go a year without a Pokémon game without the franchise imploding so they'll fucking take their time with the games again so I'm going to need people to stop being like "oh maybe there'll be a Pokémon announcement that'll be nice" I AM BITING YOU I AM BITING YOU I AM BITING YOU I AM BITING YOU
we're fine! We'll live! Go play Pokerogue, it's fine!
#this is mostly exaggerated for comedic effect#obvs if a different team or someone they sub contracted us working on a new Pokémon game that doesn't mean it or legends ZA will be rushed#and if they just ported all the old games that'd be fine#but also I think it will literally not kill anyone to not have a new Pokémon game until 2025#god they literally have not gone more than a year without a main series game or major DLC since the series started in literally 1996#and if you include spin-offs that aren't mobile Jesus Christ#the last time there wasn't ANY spin off or anything going off JP dates was 2001#WE CAN SKIP A YEAR IT'S FINE

isnt it great when u take your adhd meds and instead of using that brainpower for stuff like ASSIGNMENTS. AND PROJECTS. your brain decides the next 6 hours will be brainstorming ponysona names and making oc playlists
#IM LITERALLY IN HELL. IM SCRATCHING AT THE WALLS IM ON MY HANDS AND KNEES HERE PEOPLE#im having fun. but i also hate it because i should be focusing. but im so bored. but i need to do SOMETHING interesting or ill DIE#i want.. to make a character with a cupid theme.. name ideas i have rn are 'heart throb' 'love letter' and 'yours truly'#and i have an idea for a ponysona. its name is ripple effect and its special talent is skipping stones#but im also in class rn and we're going over the next project and i KNOW i have so many ideas for it and i want to everything ALL AT ONCE#for the assignment we have to redesign a brand design system and im going claires because i fucking hate the shade of purple they use#but even if theres no problem energy wise my motivation levels go up and down. its so over its so back#ill be like i can get some of this done rn. and then ill be like oooh i got plany of time. and then ill be like what if i lied to#buy more time. and then ill be like there are so many steps this is too much. and it just. constantly switches between those rapidly#and because i hyperfocused on playing tetris yesterday i now have tetris running in the back of my head. wtf#yapping

Being a Jason Grace truther is bracing yourself everytime you see videos talking about "unbearably boring character povs" knowing dam well who the comments are going to be talking about and skipping the video all together because of that reason
#I'm just a jason stan y'all 😔🎀#A day in a life of a jason grace lover on any platform#My biggest green flag is that I'm loyal enough to my pookie fictional characters that I skip videos for them if I sense bad comments abt it#it's at times like this where I wish the pjo fandom hadn't gotten so mainstream popular on book tok#bc jason hate is so normalised and glorified there that we truthers can't even go outside the pjo fandom without seeing hate#that it becomes a trend where everyone wants to join in to look cooler and fit in with the majority.#and the very fact that I can sense that the bad comments r going to be about Jason based on a single video says it all tbh#before I used to want like start fights w all of them but they r so dam dumb that I'd rather advocate for pro jason over here tbh#And funnily enough it worked lol I have been told that I changed many ppls perception of Jason's character positively#Also dear followers and moots I'm sorry I've been kinda dead on Tumblr lately#I will respawn with more jason content I swear#pjo#pjo fandom#percy jackson#pjo series#jason grace#pjo hoo#pjo hoo toa#annabeth chase#leo valdez#piper mclean
