#get to know your districts

My manager was supposed to do evaluations with all of us in December. Technically I think he’s supposed to do them like. Once a month.

But *shocked pikachu face* it’s been six months and I haven’t had one. Didn’t get the December one. Never see him. Just work in the tiny store and get ignored.

What if... Who Killed Markiplier... but it's Ace Attorney Investigations...

"Ace District Attorney Investigations", if you will.

(Everything you see here was drawn by me, with some backgrounds/that one evidence photo being either screenshots from the show, or edits of official photographs of Mythea Castle, where WKM was filmed)

Ume never found out that her brother's one regret was her.

I like to think that Gyutaro, who was raised in the entertainment district where beauty was valued above all, kept emphasizing Ume's beauty because that was the closest word to love for him.

He didn't need to be beautiful because Ume was his beauty. His grandest treasure. The only person he ever truly loved.

And he thought he failed her.

He couldn't give her a better life. He couldn't protect her. He couldn't shield her from hunger or the cold or leering eyes or grabbing hands.

He was okay with being damned for eternity if it meant his little sister could experience the light for just once in her life.

And that's something he'll never tell her.

I’m so glad I was born before the advent of Zoom and e-learning days because my town just got smacked with like 7 inches of snow and *boomer voice* back in my day that’d be cause for a snow day but noooooo the kids just have e-learning when schools are closed

TIL: The person that picks up when you call your representatives isn't always going to simply listen, take notes, and pass it on for you. They may try to argue with you and gaslight you about your concerns! 😃🙃

So this is friendly reminder to take care of yourself if you're marathoning calling representatives! Take breaks if you need to, drink your favorite drink, eat your favorite snack, take deep breaths in between each call! And if you have an audio recorder feel free to keep it close to your phone in case the person you're on call with tries to say some slick shit 🤗

Hello miss Marker Bills can I help you…?

[w-corp-clerk-anon]

No, im not dead I was stuck dealing with traffic and a giant-ass sentient coffee monster. We had to put down the monster despise being negotiable, but their offers weren't reasonable. I mean... sacrifice the company's van for a cup of coffee? seriously? It didn't took long for it to try and eat a bystander... And our dealer? turns out he was among that monster's first victims... shame... they were a nice guy Anyways, we got the coffee, i hope the others won't mind the taste of blood on it, but we are going to make a new contract with a new dealer because, as you guys now know, our old dealer bit the dust.

❝ careful - you’re in very real danger of hurting my feelings. ❞ ― @gamehaunt.

The bonus about being tenured is when a parent asks for details on a situation and you know the details will 100% throw your shitty new principal under the bus, you speak freely and give all the details without having to worry about big career-altering repercussions.

So I was back to subbing at the elementary school today, which as I've mentioned is my favorite place to work. In some ways it's just the most comfortable to me; this is now my fourth year in a row I've had some kind of job associated with kids of that age group who attend that school, so I know a lot of the students and faculty. Actually, a lot of the faculty who work there today have been working there since I was a student.

Most of them recognized me immediately when I started showing my face there, like I didn't graduate from there over a decade ago, age 11. There was one para, who now works as a library assistant, but who used to monitor lunch and recess. I didn't remember her name but I knew her face. The first time she saw me subbing she was just like "oh, hi Diana."

I was talking to her this morning before school started because a first grade teacher unexpectedly called out, so I filled in for her for the first hour of the day before I started the job I clocked in for and a replacement could be found. But this library assistant usually leads the morning meetings with this first grade class and would help me with attendance and all those other beginning-of-the-day responsibilities.

She was saying to me "You know, why don't you work here full time? You're good with kids. You'd be good at it." In other small talk we'd had last year she had asked me similar things, like if I'd ever consider taking up a steady job at the elementary school, how my school was going, etc. I'm in between college right now but currently not taking classes. And I mentioned how I'm trying to take more sub jobs at the middle and high school so I get more well-rounded—that actually is the age group my education major is in. I've been working with the preschool-to-fifth-grade age range but my plan has always been middle-to-high school English.

And I was telling her about that, and I was like "You know what? When I tell people I want to teach older kids, some say to me stuff like 'oh you never know, you might change your mind'—and only recently I've been wondering if I really would. But I hate it when they're right!"

And that made her laugh. But it's true! I do really love working with the littles, as it turns out. Been doing it several years now. But in terms of anyone who's ever mentioned that to me unprompted, I wanna be like... hey, what do you know?!?!
