Yeah, sorry, but it kind of frustrates me how few people seem to reach the conclusion that maybe they should just research things on their own.

The answers you are looking for are only a few clicks away thanks to the internet. There is no point in me writing you an answer for 30 minutes because the question has been answerd in detail many times before.

#God I'm getting old #even though I'm only 25 #I'm ranting about kids these days getting lazy #but my mother's students don't even seem to be able to use wikipedia so maybe they are getting dumber

On average, what is the total MONTHLY amount that you spend on dining out*?

*(This doesn't only count going out to restaurants, but also stuff like picking up fast food to bring home, getting a coffee on the way to work, getting a premade sandwich from a grocery store deli during lunch, buying a quick snack from a convenience store or food cart whilst walking somewhere, ordering a pizza or any other food to be delivered to your home, etc.)

*(If you often dine out in groups/as a household: calculate and divide the costs so that you get a Per Person average. This is for YOU individually, NOT the total household/group costs)

(I'm sure polls similar to this have been made before (very common topic), I just haven't personally seen one that I can remember, so, I was curious to do my own! I was discussing this with a group of people today and it was very interesting to see how widely the number varied between individuals. :0c )

(Reblog for bigger sample size if you can, and feel free to explain your answer in tags if there's anything extra to add!)

#polls #tumblr polls #I'm mostly in the 0/1 - 25$ category. Maybe the rare month is a bit over $25 if there's something specific going on like birthday.#Which I'm NEVER eating in an actual restaurant (erm... covid... plus I just hate restaurant environments. i would rather pickup #the food and bring it home to a peaceful quiet environment that I control lol). But more typically like stopping by a grocery store deli #section or something. I don't have coffee that much. And I can't eat fast food much due to my health issues/diet restriction stuff #so if I'm out like coming back from an appointment and I start feeling really sick and weak. I know that a hamburger will just #blow up my system and cause nausea or something. So I try to pick the breadiest most #neutral looking turkey sandwich at the safeway deli to eat during the hour ride home or whatever lol #I actually kind of wish I could do stuff like get food more often vecause it would take the burden of cooking everything off of me #but.. alas... Money... and Health Things... T o T #I still wouldn't do it ALL the time but like... once a week instead of once a month or something.. or maybe turning into a coffee #person.. I do love drinks A LOT .. i am a drink person who will have 5 different drinks sipping on at all times #But i just have to make them all myself mostly lol #And I cant really have too much coffee since it will make me sick. so like.. teas and juice mostly #When I inevitably become a millionaire by never using social media never networking and only finishing one #sculpture every 5 months which I dont even post about or sell - then I shall... get more drinks..#I will somehow wean my body onto coffee and drink one a day solely for the ritual of it #Though even then... I would still probably just like.. buy the mateirals to make it at home or something #Like if you had a million dollars you could just buy a kitchen grade ice cream machine and other stuff to make your own milkshakes and #coffees and smoothies and bubble teas. Genuinely I think even if I were a BILLIONAIRE I would still look at playing likr $8 for a single #coffee and go .. uh.... I could just buy the equipment to make this and then save that money. PLUS. its in my house now so no need to #have to leave. I can make my own drinks in the comfort of home. .. ideal..#Like no matter how rich I ever got I would still have the lingering scroogey stinginess. like i am NOT paying for that. I will jus #make it myself. Especially if it was an Everyday thing. Anythign thats part of my routine I try to optimize and make as efficient as #possible... ANYWAY.. In an IDEAL world I would get treats. but probably not that much. as on a daily basis it would start to get #to me and I would just save up to buy kitchen machinery if I was rich lol

No matter how much or little you care about the 'none of your choices (that aren't directly related to Solas) matter' bullshit...

The fact remains that they tried to keep it under wraps until release because they knew it was not going to go over well. So Epler being all 'weeelll it's Tevinter so it doesn't matter who the Divine is or who rules Orlais or what happened during the 5th Blight' is just exactly what it sounds like: a bullshit excuse. If they really stood behind this decision they would have been upfront about it and not only addressed it after it got leaked.

Honestly, BioWare's downfall is just incredibly sad to witness.

#and don't even fucking start with the 'you're not a real fan' crap #I've played BioWare games since I was 12 #which is 25 years #longer than some people defending this nonsense have been alive #all that remains of the studio I believed in are the name and a handful of people who have all apparently sold their principles #and the worst part is that I'll still check the game out to see for myself #not paying for it though #Dragon Age #BioWare #DA:TV #DA4 #eta: and yes I'm well aware this is most likely due to the fact that they had to scrape the game in its current state together in ~2-3 year #but that only explains so much about some of the decisions made

#feel like my relationship with my younger brother is changed completely forever not to be dramatic lol but i am sad #we used to b very close but he has kind of. found his faith again and gone full missionary christian which like. i knew meant the dynamic #was doomed lmao but actually acknowledging it makes me sad i feel like i'm grieving for the friendship we used to have even though #it is literally a me problem i think from his perspective he doesn't think anything has changed. but i feel weird about everything #also his new gf is nineteen and he is. almost 25 and i am the only one who feels weird about it like i know she's over 18 but! idk i can't #tell if i'm being overly cautious or if my gut instinct is right. my sister & her husband have a similar age gap but they met when they wer #both over 30 so like. it didn't feel weird. and i didn't feel comfortable actually seriously talking to him about it apart from the first #time he mentioned her over facetime (he went to another country to do mission stuff & met her there) so like an idiot i've just been #making jokes about the age gap becausee like. thats always been our thing lightly bullying each other lol but he blew up at me and said #i've had nothing positive to say about her since he's been back home and that he thinks i hate her and i'm out of line for constantly #implying he's creepy for dating someone younger. idk i felt like such a freak idiot horrible person about it. it completely blindsided me #bc yes the jokes were coming from a place of idk how i feel about this situation so i'm going to rely on the humour-based communication #we have always fallen back on as a safety thing but i guess i was wrong or the dynamic shifted or something anyway it's all fucked #& everyone is just telling me i feel weird out of some?? misplaced kind of jealousy thing?? because i'm 'losing' my brother to his gf lol #which does not feel right at all he has dated so many other girls and i have never had a problem it is literally the age gap like i haven't #even met this girl i'm sure she's very nice! i just worry about her being nineteen!! jesus. and yes maybe i do feel some resentment around #a brother younger than me who seems to be able to live his life with zero difficulty whilst i'm stuck being this unemployed loser who ruins #literally ever friendship & relationship ive ever had but i think thats ok right like i can't help feeling that. i don't fucking knowwww #am i just projecting all these sad feelings about our friendship dying onto his new relationship or like. am i right to be genuinely #concerned she's six years younger than him and still a fucking teenager!!!!!! i don't know

#currently on the worst road trip of my whole entire life! well. i don't want to jinx it lmao but #today i popped TWO TIRES at once in the middle of the Katy Freeway in Houston TX (the widest highway in the US; 26 lanes btw)#managed to make it over to the shoulder without DYING but then had to sit there for like an hour? and panic called a tow truck because duh #I know how to change a tire but I was – again – sitting on the shoulder of the widest freeway on the continent so #anyway I called a tow; a guy showed up. I assumed it was the tow! turned out it was not. but he helped me put on the spare and then was lik #“follow me to my shop I can do the tires for you” and I was like okay! 👍 but then the ACTUAL tow called me and I realized this was #just a random guy (very nice up to that point but then I got scared about following him to a secondary location?) and so I didn't lmao #I just kept driving and didn't follow him but the guy on the phone was then mad at me because I wasn't where I said I would be because #AGAIN – I thought the original guy WAS the tow company that I called? but anyway guy 2 on the phone was like “YOU OWE ME $200!!!!”#and I said for what? also how would I pay you? and he tried to get me to cash app him lmao?? I didn't. I hung up on him #he called me like 6 more times yelling at me until I finally just blocked his number 💀#however NOW at this point I'm driving on one spare tire and one rapidly-flattening second tire and I still have 3 hours left to get where #I was going for the night and to top it all off I'm in the middle of a city I've only been to one time before? so I manage to get to a hote #like a nice-ish one where I'm like “okay if I get stuck here this won't be the end of the world”#because keep in mind today is a national holiday so basically everything is closed!!!! btw!!!!!#but eventually I'm sitting there and it's literally 100F outside and I remember oh right lol I have car insurance which pays for a tow #(a normal one; not a random one I panic-found on google who calls me screaming at me to cash app him $200)#so anyway I call my insurance and the guy on the phone is very nice and is like “it's okay; we'll have someone to you in 45 min”#and I'm like okay. OKAY. 🙌💪 I am a strong independent woman who is figuring this out and no longer on the side of the highway #but instead in a nice calm neighborhood and all I have to do is wait 45 min and everything will be okay #one hour goes by. I call back. get redirected to the tow company that was dispatched. guy says oh! is my guy not there yet?#I say no. he says okay – I'll have him call you. hangs up.#okay. 20 more min go by. guy finally calls me. says “I'm 20-25 min away” at this point I've been waiting about an hour and a half #I say. okay? okay. 30 more minutes go by. I try to call the guy back. straight to voicemail. three more calls. three more no answers.#I call my insurance back. sit on hold for 15 min. eventually get put through to a different person who's like “okay let me check on him”#get put on hold. eventually she comes back and says “okay he says 15 minutes” I've been waiting over 2 hours at this point. I have to PEE #I just... burst into tears. on the phone with this poor random woman from Geico Insurance. I'm bawling my eyes out.#she was trying to get claim info from me but I'm crying so hard she's like “oh baby no. okay. okay. we can get that from you tomorrow.”#when you cry so hard that even the insurance company is like “you know what we're just going to let this one slide”#anyway guy eventually shows up. he's very nice even though I hate him a little for being so late. he drives me to an OPEN TIRE SHOP

I'm gonna continue with the requests later, but I also felt the need to doodle my two PVs with a little bit of gender on the side

They're both still very much genderless, but because not every non-binary/agender person will have the same perception/feelings regarding their gender and won't have the same gender presentation, I decided to mess around with it a little

Hallow is genderfluidv(though after some consideration I realised agenderflux describes them more accurately, but oh well, these labels don't even exist in their story so who cares), they're non-binary but their alignment fluctuates between fem-leaning, masc-leaning, something in-between and neither. They're fine with any terms and pronouns but mostly go by they/them.

Luna is genderfae/transfem, their gender fluctuates between agender and fem-aligned non-binary. They mostly go by they/them and gender-neutral and feminine terms, they're fine with she/her and some neopronouns, but any masculine terms and pronouns are a big no-no for them. Currently, I'm considering making them an enby lesbian, but that might change in the future.

#spooky arts #hollow king au #I swear this is the longest I've ever spent considering what labels would describe a character. I myself have a weird relationship with #labels so I only ever think about what people would a character be into and how their gebder 'feels' like and never go into details #I spent like an hour looking for a term that could describe how I imagined Luna's gender LMAO #Hallow is mostly me projecting. Luna is 75% me wanting to explore a situation where the pure vessel comes out as trans after they're found #out that they're not hollow. And 25% spite for all the people who call them he/him #So you know how some enby lesbians describe their gender as like. The only connection to womanhood they feel is their attraction to women?#That's kind of the vibe I get from Luna. They're enby just very sliiightly titled towards womanhood #They're also a teen and in a scenario where all the different AU hollows interact they'd bond a lot with Hallow as the only other person #who went through the same confusing gender feelings as they are going through right now.#They're kind of like 'man I wish I was a girl sometimes so I could be called princess and wear dresses' 'you know you can just do that #right?' 'I CAN?'#Also even though they're fine with different pronouns I'm still just gonna be using they/them on my blog for them. Bc I know some people #are weird about Hollow's gender and refuse to acknowledge theyre enby or keep misgendering them 🙄 I don't wanna add to that #We give a little bit of gender fuckery to the vessels though. They deserve it.#But yeah I still wanna be clear. Their genders fluctuate in alignment but they're still very much agender/genderless. Please don't treat #them like binary people 😭

putting yourself down is a bad habit and will not make your writing (which is good already) better

Maybe it's part of the problem, but I don't see what's particularly wrong with what I said or where I'm putting myself down in a way that would warrant this? Or how any of that correlates to making my writing better? I am expressing gratitude and surprise at having that many subs when I don't think I'm that good. (I like my writing! I like other people's writing better, too! And I'm pretty sure some people I consider to be great writers have fewer subs, which doesn't feel right!)

I wish I could see myself through your eyes, anon, and glad you see it differently! But I just don't like being told how to feel.

Once again: I'm thankful to all of my readers, whether they are subscribed or not! I'm even more grateful to those who read any of my stories and liked them enough to subscribe to my profile and get notified of new ones as they come out! It's incredibly flattering. When I started writing, I never thought I'd be brave enough to put any stories up on AO3, but… Now I actually have people who will be happy to see me posting new stuff? What.

#anonymous #asks #I'd normally not even reply but I'm tired #god I should've gone for the thumbs up emoji #it's! my! blog!#let's put this energy out when other people do it too! because it often feels like I am the only one not allowed to feel this way!#then again I hate policing other people's feelings so maybe don't #I was going to say more but I promised myself I'd not get into this kinda thing so. yeah.#could it be more than 25 stories? yeah but we'd get into other neuroses that are not just perfectionism. mostly that one but some others to #Idk what this message is trying to achieve though

every day, my new initiative to wait til a show is done airing to watch it seems more and more like the right choice. And it's not all shows mind you (I'm literally watching 3 right now), just shows that I have high expectations for, especially with plot and themes. It seems like pretty much every time I get my hopes up, the story inevitably fumbles so i'm better off waiting til it's over so I can get my expectations in order.

Like, I want to watch these shows while they're airing and join in the discussions and stuff but I also hate being disappointed when the show doesn't live up to my expectations and lately it seems almost inevitable that it won't, especially from gmmtv.

#last twilight was the worst offender because I initially did hold off due to lingering feelings from vv and then by like ep 8 it was still #strong so I thought it would be fine and then we all know how that went #the addicted remake which I really did want to be good #my love mix up thai which I should've held off on honestly because even watching a couple episodes of that made me so frustrated #and depressed #4 minutes #my expectations weren't as high as other people's but it was still kinda eh #I saw you in my dream #blank #debating whether the on1y one should be on here hmm because the announcement about the second season does have me feeling less annoyed but #also I'm still annoyed #I hear the sunspot #oh wandee good day cannot believe I forgot about that one #and peaceful property because that's what's inspiring this right now #only friends! though I don't regret watching that week by week #it was an Experience #25 in akasaka #there's probably so many I'm missing just because my memory is shit and I especially don't remember them if I end up dropping them out of #my watch list #which I've been doing a lot this year #23.5 #I'm trying to have no expectations for Pluto other than being insane #hopefully it serves me well

Vibrating waiting for 10pm bc polling closes which means 1. Can start the Watching the Results Come In gauntlet and 2. Mum will be home soon (she is working at a polling station and I have barely seen her this week due to other stuff)

#draco speaks #even though I'm 25 this is only my 2nd time being able to vote #and before I was 18 I paid absolutely no attention whatsoever to elections and shit #fun fact I was barely too young to vote in the EU referendum and I was glad bc it meant i didn't have to research it and have an opinion

What is it about me that makes old white men think I'm a conservative? I need to know so I can change that.

#like. I'm very visibly faggy as shit???#is it that they're trying to play chess and assume it'll piss me off #because i just play along #I'm fascinated by other peoples' points of view and will indulge them if i can get info #it's fun #but the washer dryer guys are stealing the units from my apartment's laundry room #and they talked to me about how trump is the only person i should vote for for 25 minutes #they said the current inflation is Biden's fault directly. even though it began like 20 years ago?#any pushback i did give (posed as devil's advocate) was met with some 'you're too young to know' bs #as if I'm not creeping towards 30 years old. as if I'm 12.#as if this man didn't tell me he flunked out of high school and i have a master's degree?#not that degrees mean shit. but this guy flunked out of public education in the 1960s.#he also called people in factories in south america and asia 'unskilled workers' and implied only whites can be skilled workers??#like dude. you lease washers and dryers to apartment complexes. you can't talk about unskilled labor.#he also said we should turn the post office into a private company and promptly shut up when i said I'm a postal worker 🙈#at some point he asked about my husband and i said i don't have one or any intentions of having one #and he used that as evidence of how biden fucked up america #said i should have a husband and kids by now #said I'd probably jump off a bridge if i had any of that and he said it's clearly biden era brainrot (in different words)#interesting conversation #still cannot fathom why conservatives think I'm one of them

One of the weirdest (?) HC’s I have for Dabi is that he’s extremely curious - sometimes in a cute way, sometimes in an intense way, and sometimes in an obsessive way. Like he wants to know everything about a person, whether that’s to use it against them or just to have that knowledge.

#canon Dabi definitely reads to me as desiring all knowledge #esp because he tries his damndest to be one step ahead #or at least have something in his back pocket he can levy against someone #like he did w/ Hawks' real name and revealing that knowledge only when it would be a detriment to Hawks #just not curious to the degree that my interpretation of Dabi is curious #if not absolutely obsessive in his pursuit for knowledge #yeah anyway idk #I'm editing the first 25 chapters of STIL to be more cohesive and shit #because the story itself was very DABI centric even though it is supposed to equally be about Abi #I noticed I was really writing it re: Abi as if the reader already knows her as a character #which.......... no only I KNOW HER as a character RIP

I still very loathe the Media Trope of ‘’cold genius man doesn’t feel emotions and never has relationships... UNTIL.. one random relatively bland Preddy Woman comes along and warps his entire personality and ability to think, his heart has grown and his seeming asexuality has evaporated, he is now Normal :)” or whatever like... AS a walking generic hermit archetype myself.. we would NOT act like that .... just let people be detached weirdos in peace, you cowards .. OR, don’t bother to write one in the first place if you find us too boring to exist realistically in our natural state lol.. pathetic
