#during a 10 minute break

the purely technical issue i have with genshin is that they have started to prolong dialogue sections into awfully large bits. it means that if your game crashes or you have to step away from playing or lose connection, you will have to replay a big chunk of unskippable dialogue that you already know, until you get back on track. i really wish we had more stops in between for the game to save and reload safely, even if it’s just teleporting, walking a bit with the character, moving time, anything at all to get out of the dialogue for a break without losing your progress.
#—gaming.#i have noticed it first around the latest lantern rite — unusually long conversation between some npcs and then zhongli#where i feel like there should be a pause before zhongli’s arrival if it were to follow the past tendencies#it was also quite annoying during some story quests in fontaine (especially when many characters from there are quite talkative)#hmm… natlan tribe chronicles etc. seem fine tbh but i’ve only done kinich so far so can’t really say much#but they also don’t feel like story quests and i think that playable characters deserve separate story quests anyway!!!#archon quest is quite yappy too and i really want a break to process information and walk away from pc without leaving the game open lol#my friend had to tap the dialogue button constantly for 10 minutes after their genshin had crashed in the middle of the quest

Last day of graduate school until September. I'm so exhausted. Pushing through one last assignment when I want to be obsessing over Arthur and writing. I'm sorry for the lack of Arthur posts lately. I'm hoping to be posting more original content soon.

Would Jed or Octavius drop kick a transphobe
pov you say a transphobic slur and these two instantly appear behind you to boot you full force into the sun
#sorry i drew this with my finger during my 10 minute smoke break at work today#the answer is yes#of course they would#but also like octavius’ best friend is trans you think he hasn’t had to deal with transphobes before#he’ll fucking destroy them#down then left

im so annoyed with everything today, i think i need some tasty food and a million hours of sleep and then I'll be back to normal
#the teacher at the first class today was so dibsjdhdhdhdhsgs 😫#like she was teaching us things that are like unrelated to the class that shes teaching so idek why she was teaching it#but also its things that we have been learning since the 1st semester and we've done them in at least 10 classes and she was acting like#this was the 1st time we were hearing about it#like oh yeah we're on the 7th semester of studying nutrition but no one bothered to tell us how many calories are in a gram of fat#and she gave us homework 'to see if we know this' like#oh yes i can make a meal plan for a child with crohns or cystic fibrosis or celiac disease or everything else we've done this semester and#all the other semesters but i guess i cant tell you what micronutrients are in this one breakfast meal#like fuck off and stick to what you're supposed to be teaching#anyway i know im getting more annoyed than i should but she was just even more annoying than usual today#like she interrupted the lesson every 5 minutes to yell at someome to be quiet i wasnt even aware there were people talking until she yelled#anyway#also my new earphones aren't working well idk why ive definitely not been mistreating them that much for them to break in less than a month#like i had my old pair for at least 4 years until the broke and i dont think the wire got cut in them like the sound was coming out weird#but there was sound coming out. in the new ones you need to hold them in a very specific angle for sound to come out#and like im careful with how i put them away so what is up with them?#my theory is that they make wired earphones shitty on purpose so that you will spend a lot of money and buy wireless#also we had said from Tuesday that we would hang out with my friends today but i guess they forgot or idk and they made other plans#(to go home and sleep) and during the weekend the one friend wont be here and next week my family will be here so we probably wont hang out#again until next year and we have exams almost immediately so we wont be hanging out much then either#also my period is supposed to come soon and i hope that it will either come today or it will wait until after Christmas#ideally it will never come ever again but we cant always get what we want#anyway im gonna go eat the rest of my μεσογειακό and go take a nap#jo says stuff#personal ramblings

Cincy's schedule for tomorrow is a mess for Carlos. who planned that? its literally terrible
#tennis#tennisblr#I mean if he closes the match against gael with the tie break (in less than 10 minutes) its fine#but if Gael wins the tie break they will have to play a 3rd set and not even two hours later the winner will have to face Holger#the possible runeraz match should be played during night sessions as they will do with Quinwen and Casper/Felix vs Jack#this is terrible tbh#Cincinnati Open#Cincinnati 24

Boss makes a dollar, I make a dime, that’s why I read fanfiction on company time
#for legal reasons this is a joke#I only read fanfiction during my government mandated 10 or 30 minute breaks in which I have to clock out#boss makes a dollar i make a dime#work#retail#fanfiction

my lead telling me to start doing something i do during my messiest part of the day in a deeply inefficient way and also do More work and me smiling really politely knowing there is No Fucking World where i do what she tells me to.
#im sorry but i am Not doing all that effort to avoid putting Slightly Damp dishes on our racks.#theyll dry in literally like 10 minutes on the shelf i am NOT putting them Up in dishroom and then going to get them 15 minutes later#especially not when im SUPPOSED TO BE ON BREAK during that time.

no fr i worry abt globalization too. like i 100% actually admire and respect the cultures who value taking it easy and relaxing a little more. the US is basically my own personal hell ^^; i have a very low desire to work and just enjoy doing what i love and spending time with people i love, not slaving away to some corporate overlord that doesn't care about my life. i'd love to skip and get coffee with friends, or relax a little more rather than worrying about grades and constantly go-go-going all the time. but alas.
that's just my take, though ^^; (plus i just hate how everything gets made for americans... even being one i always feel kinda sad when cultures adapt to the us, rather than the us adapting to others... there's so much to be learned from other cultures! but you lose so much when everyone starts catering to the americans...)
Yeah, there's good things to take from America (like, okay okay, i shit on the US a lot, but like looking at the past and how it really was seen as a place of opportunity because you could start from zero and still make it - it's no longer a thing, but when it was it was inspiring, or i think we specifically mentioned "fighting for your rights" and "activism" as "good sides of westernisation" while studying it in high school), but the protestant work ethic.... is not it.
And maybe my own people take it too far in the other direction, i know we're stereotyped as excruciatingly lazy even in the north of the same country, but i just believe there's no reason to... put your entire soul into your career. Sure, if your work brings you joy you can allocate your hobby-time to your job-time, but... friends, family, entertainment, art are all things that need their own time. Imo "job" should be pretty low on your priorities (again, unless it brings you joy on par with a hobby. Like, if i manage to find work as a translator, i'll treat that job like my world, but that's bc it'd be on par with a hobby). I think we also use "work to live, don't live to work" to explain it. But we live in such a world :( it's hard, you need money to live, but you have to work so much now that you don't have the time to live anymore.
#i love that we're always waxing poetic about random subjects and philosophising lmao#but right stereotypes. northern europeans and western europeans see southern europeans as lazy#like really lazy. it's a Thing. spend 10min in the /europe sub and you'll see it#spend 10 minutes in the /croatia sub and you'll see two threads talking about how lazy dalmatians are#''the souther you go the lazier the people''#i'm pretty sure even northern italians will say southern italians are lazy and useless#but the thing is that the souther you go the hotter it gets#and the hotter it gets... the less sense it makes to work all day#in the north you work in the day and sleep in the night#in the south you can't do that without getting heatstroke. you work before and after sunrise and you sleep at night but also during the day#hence the birth of the siesta (or fjaka as we call it in my dialect)#it started as just our programming but. it bled into our culture#we can survive without having to work 24/7#look at how hot it is - you can't do anything even if you wanted to#so why not take a break? why not sit down and just talk with your friends? why not just enjoy life for a minute?#and i like that and i don't wanna see that part of our culture destroyed#sure i don't help the stereotypes - i got the weirdest looks when i said i treat my absences like vacation time#(bc it's not like if i'm not absent i get 6 allowed absences next term - it's always 3 so i might as well use them)#but like. it's important!!!!! if i do nothing but work i'll go insane!!!!!!!!#and frankly i think we need to start pulling ''it's actually xenophobic to make me work all day'' at this point#you need to do it to. say your Dalmatian friend adopted you into the culture. it is now your Korka-given right to take a break from 3-5pm#preferably used to nap but you can also just hang out#all this to say there was a graffiti here that said ''THIS IS NOT AMERICA'' and i think of it everytime people try to adopt the US work#ethics like. we don't need that!!! this is not america!!!!!!! don't do that!!!!!!!!!!

Also if you live in the USA
Check to see if you're in a "no boycott Israel" state/territory because if y e s, just a heads up cops are being encouraged to use more force across 30+ states.
Have a plan and contacts set up if you do get arrested or are expected to be arrested. Learn and take things with you on the off chance mustard and tear gas is used. And I strongly urge traveling in teams of 3 with at least 1 white person/1 passer (ideally male).
Be on your best behavior and know your individual state laws before you head out. Collectively as a nation, we have less rights than the rest of the world when it comes to protests being respected by law enforcement and state governments so I cannot stress this enough, be responsible & aware of your surroundings to avoid getting hurt or killed by cops who will escalate if given the opportunity.
AND DONT POST YOU WERE THERE ON ANY SOCIAL MEDIA PLATFORM
YOU CAN & WILL EVENTUALLY GET ARRESTED AFTER THE FACT IF YOU ACT UP AND ARE NOT WHITE
Gentle reminder to anyone able to make it to any protests coming up please practice proper protest etiquette both for your own safety and that of others.
Wear a mask, cover any tattoos, and don't wear clothing with recognizable logos or branding. Don't take pictures of yourself or others. Don't talk to cops.
Protests aren't a fun event to post about on social media, we are trying to make an real change. Be safe and responsible
#mun post#and if you got medical insurance- you tell them you were driving past/at a restaurant near by that led you to the gas exposure#they wont cover you if you tell them you were at the protest 9 outta 10#and yes we are the bad place#if you cannot find at least 1 more person to go with - i beg of you to switch to bail out aid assistance and protesting over the phone/emai#with representatives as a “concerned tax paying citizen” doubiy if you present or are more feminine and not white#protest#also take an extra phone battery or phone that have have the battery removed + ear plugs#and leave an hour before the protest is expected to end because cops like to last minute switch up to start arresting people for ignoring#them and loitering/trespassing- you gotta fully assuke every cop you can see can and will turn on you during the last hour#i am dancing around the tx version of the no boycott law loopholes and i am worried about protests here#blm & copcity protesters have been put on lists that cops use to low key track them so if they break the law they can crack down- safety 1st

Saddest thing in the world is choosing to sit in your car for lunch instead of sitting in the store because you’re just that over it
#I don’t like closing shifts#I don’t like working multiple closing shifts in a row#and I certainly don’t like having a week of staying till close#not only am I BORED as hell during our down time and I’m not even allowed to sit#I also can’t Stand the way it’s impossible to get anything done with people breaking our entire set up down at NOON during the RUSH#like what is the point of this for real#you could clean all this when we have excessive down time after 4pm#like come the fuck on#how the fuck am I supposed to make 10 drinks and cash people out by myself when you’ve got all my counter space taken up by fucking syrup#bottles that I have to sort through like legos to find the one I need#and then I have to move the shot you’ve put in MY WAY to do my actual job#meanwhile it hits 4 and we can go like a whole 30 minutes without seeing a single customer
