#new tags time yippee#cj updates#so there's some old-ish tags here lol#i had this saved for a while actually. just didnt know if i wanted to post goofs yet#old tags:#i will say i personally cannot make fun of him for that#as i was [still am even] overly invested in drinking mnt dew#they used to sell a full liter mnt dew bottle for like a dollar at the stores near me & id take one to school a lot an drink the whole thin#[Sometimes id be able to get a whole 2 liter. Tho I couldn't drink the whole thing during the day [mainly just to save it for later rlly]]#which i would then have after the can id get every morning.....#im better now i swear#tho it was always very funny when i had a class with a friend where id slowly pull the very long bottle out from my bag#the face they would make is always so funny to me still#so i have a feeling i know *exactly* what face his teacher made#either like a mix of astonishment & confusion or its just disappointment#a “why are you like this” typea look#its great#however his story is still horrifying#i drink monster a bit & like one can is enough for me for a day [if i can finish it even]#maybe if i clutched onto that instead of mnt dew during school years id be just like him then#im in the good timeline thank god#rant over lol my bad

holy shit. just saw christ and yogananda during meditation—i was on the cusp of consciousness, about to fall asleep—and they said “you already know how to do this,” referring to the void state. and i had this sudden clarity to just resist nothing—nothing i feel, nothing i experience, no judgments on what i think i “should” be doing—resist none of it, and to simply allow the experience to take me.
i didn’t enter, but i did feel this astounding clarity and conviction that this is who i am and that i have been victorious, with a resounding feeling of “i did it”. what an amazing experience. i feel so clear now. set the intention, then resist nothing.
#void state#i’ve been focusing so much on who i am these past few days and im seeing astonishing changes in beingness#i don’t even really care about the exterior manifestation. like i am who i say i am.#i am the ultimate prize baybeeeeee#isn’t it tiff grande who says that the physical manifestation is just a bogo anyway?#you be it here and now and reality takes care of itself lmao. it literally has to.

I JUST LISTENED TO HITS DIFFERENT FOR THE FIRST TIME IN A WHILE—-
#speechless at her ability to take a feeling bottle it and recreate it in song/verse form#the tightness of the structure (and literally I don’t think there’s another songwriter in the world who has song architecture on lock#the way she does)#Somehow the perfect outlet for the explosion of emotion#like this is what the people don’t understand. Taylor Swift is the HEIGHT of craftsmanship and discipline#combined with the most uninhibited emotion#she’s the fusion point between structure so strict it’s almost cold and emotion so unbridled it’s almost embarrassing#but she holds both at the same time#it creates something that’s so hard to look away from#I sometimes think people only hear the one or the other#but it’s the meeting point that matters#Sorry but Taylor Alison Swift is a little more Johann Sebastian Bach than any of us realize#anyway. Like sometimes I fool even myself into thinking she’s normal#and then I wake up and remember she’s a genius#Anyway anyway I am sooooo scared of tortured poets department#because Taylor albums scare me before they come out#where is she going to drop kick me to next time#what preconceived ideas of her is she going to blast into pieces#like I just. She is astonishing. no other way around it#and it takes all my breath and energy away

When "he would not fucking say that" escalates to "did we even read the same book?????"
#i have just x'ed out of an svsss fic because it was...truly and genuinely astonishing to me to find a fic writer#who understood Luo Binghe so little and yet was writing SVSSS fic#I feel like I have never understood Shen Yuan more incidentally#what could be more in line with Shen Yuan's personality than wanting to write an extensive comment about someone not understanding Binghe?#shen yuan is fictional but nevertheless we are high fiving#and it was to facilitate shen jiu apologism too!!!! it was a fic where Binghe found out about SY's transmigration and was like#I hate you. I want my real Shizun back. give me SJ that's who I thought I married#broooooo. broooo. if you are picturing a world in which Luo 'has been fervently imagining himself as Shizun's wife since age 17' Binghe#Luo 'I literally don't care what happens to the world I just want Shizun to love me' Binghe#chooses anybody but SY#then I am just shrugging at you. I am so so baffled by you. bro

Me: yeah I'm just doing some coding-
Like everybody for some reason: YUCK!! Ugh! I'm sorry! That sounds boring and dry as hell. Ew. Get well soon
Me: 🤨🧍
#i am exaggerating obviously but#the number of comments I get from people assuming that coding and reading anything about coding is just boring is. astonishing#like one time i was like 'sorry I'm late. was coding and lost track of time' and someone responded 'said no one ever' lmao#i feel like I'm getting a taste of what math enjoyers experience#it's especially funny bc i didn't go to school for this or anything. I'm teaching myself#it's not even the thing I'm best at or anything i literally just enjoy it enough to make it a career#someday hopefully if the job market ever turns around under a blue moon or whatever. no I'm not salty about the job hunt why do you ask#anyway it's just funny#as if I've literally ever been able to get myself to do something that's boring. especially off the clock#yes I'm putting myself through the most boring ordeal on the planet. why? well. to do something i hate for a career of course#get real i have ADHD and an interest based nervous system or whatever lol I'm doing this bc i like it. and incidentally could make money#I'm not actually mad I'm just confused lol#anyway. coding is interesting and there needs to be more exposure to it#so people like me can get started with it earlier in life and so that people stop saying weird crap to me about it lololol#coding#stem

How to write a funding request that is like "Look, for the sake of my work, I can't be on campus but I can't be at my normal non campus accommodations either. Please pay for me to be as far away from both as possible. Preferably about 3000 miles away, in fact. I will accept goat herding on the Aran Islands as an alternative."
#i was away with a friend for three days#it was great! I was happy#but more importantly for capitalist purposes I was PRODUCTIVE#ideas were coming to my mind#i was writing#I was THINKING#...and then I got here and it's like my brain matter got replaced by mush#it's astonishing#i really am NOT stupid it's that i'm literally having to fight ten other battles in either location

oh i’ve about had it lol
VENT TW
i posted my fourth chapter of in the midnight hour on ao3 (5th chapter on ao3) and the first comment i get is just… so disheartening. it wasn’t necessarily mean but it wasn’t very constructive either, it was just sort of rude. obviously i fixed what they were upset about (i forgot to mention the readers pronouns in the summary) but i really don’t understand why they had to say it the way they did.
i can really understand what it’s like to read something that you really like and then be pulled out of it with wrong pronouns or a description of the reader, but you have no right to tell someone they’re wrong or bad or gross or evil for writing it. all you have to do is either ask politely for them to specify in the description/summary, or don’t say anything at all and just click off the post. you do not have to read something that you don’t like or makes you feel bad. (and the readers pronouns were being used right from the beginning of the story and the summary so i don’t know why it was a surprise for them)
the readers pronouns are mentioned within the summary itself, but since i had afab as a descriptor for the reader this person decided that i was co opting trans language. i am not cis. i have been using afab and amab as descriptors for readers for a very long time, as well as trying to specify pronouns as well. they told me to use fem reader instead or cis fem reader but that’s not always the case! what if i want a reader who uses she/her, is afab, but isn’t cis? like i don’t understand why that’s a wrong label in this context?
am i in the wrong here? like can someone actually tell me if i’m the asshole right now because i feel so bewildered
this just makes me feel so horrible. first thing i’ve written in over a month and i can’t even fucking do that right it seems. i’m so just horribly sad right now.
#tw vent#lily talks#i worked on writing all day today and the first feedback i get is the most passive aggressive comment i’ve ever received#i feel like i should just stop writing like nobody fucking likes it anyways#what the hell is the point#am i just too old now like i know i’ve been here since like 2016 but when did being polite go out the window#like if they had just worded it differently i would’nt be feeling this way#like they literally feel like the kind of person who would tell me to kms and then act like they’re normal for it#this isn’t gonna leave my mind for a while#i should probably just block them to ease my brain or something#also the person writes harry potter fic. i’m astonished

I told myself I would brainstorm and start writing today but honestly I’m too fucking depressed and in physical pain to do shit
#elle stop talking#the amount that I don’t wanna be here is astonishing#everything I do isn’t fucking good enough#no matter how many part time jobs I have it’s not good enough#like my worth is literally rooted in whether I have a 9-5#or having my own place#which I have neither#so not only am I so fucking broke and no decent job#I’m undesirable BECAUSE of those things#my degrees are fucking useless all I’m good enough is for dog walking

okokokok so on the topic of botw/totk link having little to no emotion in cutscenes. ive said it in other posts but in botw it honestly makes sense given his present scenario and you are given a pretty good reason for it in the past. he's under a lot of pressure and he's just trying to do his job. in totk it does not work because he should have new memories now and he has memories with these new sages and with zelda and yet he's all but stonefaced with this people. there are some micro expressions and that's fine. but to me the problem with his lack of emoting in cut scenes is that it makes him very devoid of personality. he doesn't talk, so you're going to get the most of his personality from the way he moves and emotes, but in the cutscenes he just comes off as... dutiful stoic knight. with no meaningful feelings towards these people supporting him.
i'm not asking for him to be animated with all of these flourishes to give him some bombastic personality, but i just want to see him... react to stuff. see him express some extra emotion asides from determination.
people argue against botw/totk link having no expression by pointing out that he DOES emote quite a bit in gameplay and pointing that that there! there's his personality! and yes! i see it! and that kind of makes his lack of emotion in cutscenes worse! he can be and has been animated with personality and preferences and reactions and for some reason none of it is in the story important cutscenes! normally it's the other way around!
this isn't even fully about him having minimal expressions: i get it when people say it's maybe an autism thing, and that makes sense! i personally don't do a whole lot of expression when i'm under pressure, so i get it! that makes sense! i don't necessarily want him to have the facial expressions that skyward sword link had, i just want to see some shred of visual personality out of him in these cut scenes.
i mean... in ocarina of time, when the great deku tree is done telling his little story, you see that link has been sitting down. that's... something! stuff like the way he gets out of his bed and the speed at which he walks or runs in cut scenes... the engines oot and oot3d were done on can't allow for the same kinds of animations as botw/totk, but we still got little bits of personality just out of the way he moved his body. you emote with your body as much as your face. i may have a fairly straight face, but the way i may move gives away how i feel and how i act.
i wanted something like what we got in that first scene under hyrule castle- i wanted more of the moment when he gently takes zelda's torch because he knows her, understands that she may need both of her hands, and is willing to hold this torch for her while she grabs her stuff. you get a bit of personality out of that, you get that he knows zelda and how she works to some degree, and you get that there is trust between them because of this.
as far as i remember, this is the only instance of link being animated in such a way that suggests personality and his relationships with others. he emotes and is animated plenty outside of story beats, so he's very lively in dialogue options and little extra cutscenes, but in story beats, where he is interacting with his friends and discovering history and incredible secrets and trying to help the people he cares about and the world he cares about- it's all washed away, and it's kind of frustrating. i don't want anything big, just subtle little things, like his taking zelda's torch for her. something that isn't just him interacting with his environment and tepidly reacting- something that suggests little things about him and his opinions.
#second place to the torch scene is link getting recall i will admit. that was also good. his hesitation and astonishment.#loz#legend of zelda#totk#botw#link#like. it's not that he doesn't have facial expressions its that he expresses literally nothing notable when it matters#most of his personality is gleaned outside of the fucking story and sure it's there but come ON#him having his normal gameplay face when he finally gets his friend back is FUCKED i am sorry but my guy expressed literally nothing#salty talks#if you reply to this arguing with me its useless. yeah? i'm not going to argue about this this is my opinion on botw/totk link's animations#like. im going to bring up fucking ph. each character had a handful of face textures and my god the personality you got from their movement#i dont want link to have wild expressions i want him to move in a way that reveals his personality even slightly#rn he mostly moves like the character you control in a video game. he moves like a soulsborne customized player character#totk spoilers#i guess#btw this is the post that im pretty sure got eaten so uhhhh hope this one isnt eaten#bitching abt totk
