#don't mind me i'm just whining

[ex0rin]

i see the @febuwhump prompt list is also trying to drag me back to spn 🙃

[arborix]

job searching is only making me more depressed :(

almost wish I was still watching the neighbor's dog as an excuse to drag myself out for a walk

I want to play Baldur's Gate 3 but then as of Patch 3 and hot "fix" #9 my durge's... let's call it, the aftermath of his first incident is not triggering for some reason the next day. All ready for Vincent to face the consequences but when he wakes up and looks around nothing happens. No cut scene at all.

I just want him to go, "Ah hello? Does anyone else here notice this disturbing mess? Nobody wants any answers at all? I'm ready to confess... anyone? Hello? Okay, now I know how Tav feels."

If I just go on and keep playing will that continue to mess everything up? What if I don't get the cloak from murder daddy? What if more morning-after scenes fail to trigger. This sucks.

Some personal vent under cut

Every time I get sick now, even if it’s some dumb cold, I get absolutely exhausted, like, could actually go to work if I push myself (and I’ve done it in the past), but would rather lie in bed all day exhausted. Over a dumb cold. Like srsly I find that more frustrating than the constant headaches sometimes.

Anyway I’m just whining because I did take off work today and thought I could take it easy and relax with some fic or headcanon post writing, but my brain is too fried even for that and I hate it. When it’s not work it’s my body, can I please get a break and be free to do my hobbies in peace for once, please 😭

have you ever read a fanfiction you disliked so much it put you off reading for the foreseeable future?

I feel bad because it wasn't even badly written, it just gave me such ending fatigue. In my personal opinion, it was four whole chapters longer than it needed to be, and not only did the author have many writing tics that kept showing up, up to five times in one paragraph, the plot itself got intolerably repetitive, too. But I guess there are only so many ways you can describe people boinking when you don't have much experience.

Anyway, I'm just letting it out into the void bc if I don't express it I'll explode, but I don't want to be mean to the author for no reason. Getting upset over too-long endings/epilogues/repetitive sentences is my issue and I don't want to accidentally discourage someone from writing.

um...

is someone going to tell them or...?

[crownedwille]

For once I'm begging for fics with crown prince Wilhelm in it where that's not just portrayed as a bad thing where he is miserable and he and Simon are struggling but where it can work out and be good 😩

Or give me fics where you have the s3 ending but it didn't solve everything and they don't live a happy 'normal' life and have struggles. Both should be possible, there is not just one option for the way you can write those two outcomes. That's what fanfiction is for - to create and explore different alternatives. I see so many s1 or s2 canon divergence fics but where are the s3 canon divergence fics? Please, I'm begging 😩

i need the day to be long, 24 hours is no longer enough

[storiesbyjes2g]

Back to work tomorrow and very mad about it as I shut down this pc and get ready for bed. 😭 I've been off for two weeks and feel like I've barely had any time for myself.

It's still fucked up to go "why can't people accept trans men as men when they act JUST LIKE cis men," and it (at best) is putting trans men in a shitty position wherein we have to prove ourselves suffieciently enough and at worst is actively just transphobia reliant on gender essentialism, which affects all trans people and then some.

If I decide to post something to ao3, that means I actually have to come up with a title and a summary. Uuuugghhh

I’d love to try Disco Elysium sometime, but man... whether I pirated it or not, it needs TWENTY whole GIGABYTES of space!!  For comparison’s sake, EVERY SINGLE official Silent Hill game-- ALL of them (not counting I guess the HD collection or whatever the pachinko thing was)-- is about 27 GB on their own.  I get that most people apparently have supercomputers these days, but 20 gigs is just kind of absurd for one PC game even if it’s a big open world one, and I feel more than a little unconsidered... there had to be SOMEthing that could’ve been optimized more...

Convulses dies throwsbup cries on the floor pathetically. Y'all have no idea how much I wanna bully my brother but my hands don't feel like doing the job on drawing it out.

Trying real hard not to take something as a slight and trying real hard not to take that perceived slight personally and failing miserably bc I've made a couple mistakes at work recently and it doesn't matter that I caught them and one didn't even cause any issues once I fixed it and the other one I took all the steps proper to address it once I noticed it bc every time I make a mistake it's proof that I don't know what I'm doing and am terrible at my job and the guy who got hired after me is now in a role in which he'll be quality checking my paperwork and data entries and I've been really phoning it in at work bc I'm trying to stave off burnout and still dealing with grief over losing my grandmother and dog of 14 years within days of each other a few months ago

But I'm fine I'm totally fine even though my boss just told me to edit a form but the form is a PDF and I don't know how to edit it without messing up the formatting so I'm just gonna hope he forgets he suggested I do that like he forgot he suggested I make a new form for a different monitor bc I was frustrated that we didn't have a standardized form for it and thus no way to keep track of maintenance checks on it even though we report data to the fucking government and every step of the way of everything we do has to be written down somewhere

I showed my housemate a picture of all of the available babies together and he was like that's a lot of babies and I was like well I'm not getting All of them that would be too many and he was like "honestly if you were getting all of them I would tell you no" and I know he was probably mostly joking but I'm still like. excuse me
