Some of the roughest patches of my life have always given way to some of the most joyful periods of creation. I feel myself on the verge of one such breakthrough which is great! But also means I may need to turn down a store manager position to get there which is a bitter pill to swallow
#realistically I’ll probably end up working three days a week at the cafe#but it kind of sucks to accept that the promotion I’ve been working toward doesn’t work with my writing goals#I want to run my own store#but the current 40 hr week at my position is creating havoc#on my feet 40 hours a week#cleaning and customer facing#is also pretty hard#I hardly go to the gym anymore#the tags are just me having the same debate over and over again#I want my own store but my other goals would be sacrificed for it#if I have to choose I choose writing#scary stuff

Think I've finally mastered she's an angel on accordion I'm so happy
#meaning i can finally get through the whole song without going Wait fuck cos i pressed the wrong key#so . so . so many tmbg songs i want to learn but the problem with practicing accordion is i find it hard to justify it to myself time wise#because like practicing guitar working on songs practicing recording is all stuff i need to do to keep working towards my goals music wise#even practicing piano is like i can justify it to myself but i do not need to be learning to play accordion its truly self indulgent#which is Fine because All of this is self indulgent anyway i dont need to be doing anything#i just feel guilty continuing to put off working on songs ive been meaning to finish so i can go play them and like stuff like that#and theres no way im putting accordion in my own arrangements ever that would be way too on the nose so its really just .#so that i can sometimes play tmbg songs and go Omfg this is so fun. which is okay it IS fun#after all why not . why shouldnt i learn to play accordion on the side just because that guy from my favorite band plays accordion. really#i also figured out how to play the third processional from house of mayors and now i wanna practice it til i can play it up to speed but#that feels like such a useless endeavour but isnt that true of almost everything we do in life...so ill do it anyways for fun

[CN] Victor’s Carbon Pen and Glass Bead Event (Day 3)
⌚ This post contains detailed spoilers for content yet to be released on the global server! ⌚
✦ thursday || friday || saturday || sunday || monday || tuesday || wednesday
【High School Affiliated to Loveland University Second Year (Section 1) Semester Schedule - Saturday】
✄┈┈┈┈┈┈
[MATH TUTORING CLASS]:
Being ahead by almost half of the semester allows Victor to have ample time to tackle all the knowledge points he doesn’t yet understand fully. Since he already dedicated himself to it, he must always ensure to obtain substantial returns.
If his requirements aren’t met, he will opt for another option.
Victor sits in the third row and calmly takes out the study materials. As the tutor steps onto the stage, he feels an inexplicable shiver run down his spine.
—
[BREAK]:
Cooking serves as a perfect stress-relieving activity, as it not only helps release pressure but also allows one to enjoy the delightful dishes they prepare.
Victor hums a tune softly as he tastes the chicken soup he has prepared. Ignoring the subtle shimmer of oil on the surface, the clear broth emits an alluring aroma that tickles his nostrils. The seasoning is perfectly balanced, with just the right amount of saltiness and freshness, making every mouthful filled with a burst of umami.
Perfect.
After having his meal, he plans to spend the entire afternoon completing all the weekend school assignments.
──────
✧ next stop: Sunday
─────────
#(。ノω\。) i wanna say i can actually relate but the way he works so so so freakin' hard-#i’d be more than grateful if i can have even 0.5/10 of the achievements he has today when I’m 28 🥲#really makes you realize greatness is not and never genius. it’s the efforts and extreme hard works you invest towards your goal/ dreams 🫠#also - the way my first thought was “chicken soup for the soul”?? 🤣🤣 btw the way he hums tunes while cooking 🥺#remember Mr. Mills mentioned it too in the r&s. how he'd hum and check on the oven at Souvenir in every few mins like a little kid🥹#mlqc victor#mlqc li zeyan#mlqc#mr love victor#mr love queen's choice#李泽言#恋与制作人#love and producer#mlqc cn#mlqc spoilers#mlqc translations

ughhh they have me scheduled to close next weekend and the weekend after that and I just. don't want to.
#I don't even know why it's so distasteful like I'm already a night owl. being up to 11:30 isn't an issue for me#I guess it's that nighttime is sort of an escape in my mind and it feels wrong to be stuck at work until nearly midnight#particularly when it's work that like. doesn't really fulfill anything?#like if I were at an FX shop doing moldmaking until the late evening I might not enjoy it but at least I know it goes towards a film#doing inventory at sephora until nearly midnight just doesn't feel like it serves any sort of end goal and that makes it hard to motivate

im out rn and taylor swift's antihero is playing and one of the lyrics is genuinely "ill stare directly at the sun but never in the mirror" which is incredible since she seems incapable of self reflection
#ari opinion hour#i picked that one up because of the first half of the line to which i was like omg hellmouth sunbeams blaseball mention#anyway the lyrics arent well written there are some interesting things in there but theyre not used well#certain lines about Half of them are great and then the other half is like Okay what are you going for here#like of the line i doubt theres any lines that the WHOLE line is like actually good#the problem is not clunkiness to be clear musical comedy is great have you listened to flight of the conchord#there are many many good applications for clunkiness it can give a sense of awkwardness which can be very useful#the problem is that she does not know what her own goal is#it really seems like part very self-aware lies part actual insecurity part intentional acting and it doesnt work#theres just very little sincereness here it very clearly comes across as someone who never gets told no#like she just completely whiffed so hard on all of this metaphor#god thinking about it now and its not even like itd be HARD to do basically any of it well it would be EASY#especially there's a bit about feeling like a 'monster lurching towards your favorite coty'#which like how the fuck do you whiff THAT#itd be SO easy to use that as a metaphor for being famous and feeling like you stick out#but nah that whole like kinda sucks its clunky

Hi.
How did you get over your quarter life crisis?
Because I’m trying not to fall into the vast unyielding void. And I’m failing hilariously.
#TAG RANT. CAN IGNORE. YOON JUST NEEDS TO GET HER THOUGHTS OUT.#filler tag to push the rest of the rant down past the cut off point.#i literally don’t know what I’m going to do with my life and I can’t decide anything.#do I stay in flowers#do I leave flowers#do I try and get into film again#do I move to Europe#or delay that and go back to school for the one thing that’s always brought me pure happiness#or do I move out of my city#but in all of this I have to consider my partner and what he wants#but I don’t know what to do. i don’t know what the right thing for me is and I can’t afford a therapist so I ramble on the internet in hopes#of a shiny beacon of something rings into my head and figures everyhting out for me#like. I’ll be 25 in April. a ways off. but I’m 25 and I haven’t done anything. i don’t know what I’m supposed to do?? i had a life plan that#was derailed so hilariously hard by COVID that cannot be mended. and this is the first time I haven’t had a plan or a solid goal and so now#I’m floating in the middle of the pacific wondering which direction to turn in hopes of finding land#i have nothing to work towards and I miss who I was. i want to be that again. i wanna be her again. but it’s so difficult to do that.#anyway. rant over. needed to get that out. thanks for reading if you did.#this actually made me feel a lot better hope moly.

I love taking care of people omggg 😍😍😍
#i love when i can go into nurse mode and get people what they need and run through the checklist of what helps#especially if i know the person because then i already have a handle on preferences or what they typically need#i have like. half a degree for a few things and i have a specific interest in physiology and psychology#i also used to really enjoy crisis management and peer support stuff but theres a lot of elements of that i cant do anymore#because the toll that shit takes is more than i can pay#specifically crisis related events#theres a lot I have to work through yet before i can manage those situations#anyway. my dream situation would be to work with someone to help them figure out what they need#like. assess the situation. find resources if needed. check on their ability to address basic daily tasks. make crisis plans.#start some basic dbt conversations and try to figure out what help they need and how to get it#i know some people dont want to go to a traditional psychiatrist or psychologist for whole host of extremely valid reasons#so being able to help them with self help or finding other alternatives. or just like. being a person they can regularly talk and vent to#because sometimes people don't have anyone. and just one person in their life can make a major impact#and like. its not exactly like therapy in that way. like i have the knowledge base to incorporate aspects of it in if wanted/needed#i think some people just need to be heard and that can help them move forward#and my goal isnt to like. transform you or whatever. there are people out there who need help but its hard to start#or it's difficult for them to access what they know they need#and i just want to meet people where theyre at and help them take enough small steps to being able to live how they want#like. harm reduction type shit. if you just need clean needles thats a step forward. and maybe its the only step they feel they need#to be happy. and now they can have a little bit of a safety.#like. a little more agency over how they want to live their life while improving quality of life#a step is a step man#anything that moves you toward the life you want counts#you deserve a win#the edible hit part way through so sorry if theres incomplete and tangential thoughts#also how can i do this shit for profesh??#i know similar jobs exist but theres a huge foundation of shit i just dont agree with built into them

"you can't be mad at people for not knowing" i'm not! i'm mad that you haven't made any effort to learn while you spread harmful bullshit and claim you're a poor innocent baby who can't be expected to know any better whenever you're called on it!
#text#'people just care so much they can't help being antisemitic by accident ://// why are you being so mean'#well the rhetoric you're repeating has literally gotten my people killed so there's that!#if you want to help instead of hurt you have a responsibility to know what the fuck you're talking about#if that's too hard you can always shut the fuck up! that's always an option!#like you can actually you know. listen to organizations that have been working towards peace for decades? figure out tangible steps to take#posting is not activism. posting misinformation isn't activism. spreading antisemitic rhetoric definitely isn't activism#unless the goal of your activism is to kill jews i guess. then i suppose it's helpful to your cause#ilana says stuff#i/p#antisemitism

for real though that post is so true on the love front i think about it all the time like why is everyone so LOVELESS not even just in like cishetero marriages where they hate each other just in general like platonic too. it drives me craaazy when im exposed to it like why are ppl like this !! why dont you love your friends and partner!! its like everything is a social game that theyre playing just for validation and lacking real connection and its a game where theyre always about 2 steps away from being bitter and hateful towards their friends/lover like STOOOOP! im someone who values love and kindness so much and it baffles me. why do you hate your partner! why do you talk about them like theyre an object of validation! why are you dating someone you clearly dislike! why are u so mean to ur friends behind their backs im cryin. why do you up and abandon them the second you get a partner bc you dont value them over the romantic validation you get. ive always been such an affectionate person at heart and i value what my friends say so much and i always find myself feeling so distant from people in relationships because they just feel?? so shallow?? and distant from me. like i think oh this preson gets me but theres ppl who say the same things how they value kindness and love but its always like, immediately clear they are actually a deeply mean person and just enjoy feeling like theyre 'good'. the way society functions with relationships feels so intensely shallow and i cannot connect to it at all. i love my friends and i love people and i always want to understand them and reach out with compassion and be close to them physically and emotionally speaking and talk a lot and listen to them. however im cursed to live in a world of 1 word responses if any at all and shallow relationships where no one gaf about each other and then i get told i talk too much. hello? *tapping mic* hello? is this thing on? be filled with whimsy and love going forward please. anyway does anyone else feel this way or is it just me feel free to talk about it if youd like
#thank god i finally found some friends who are like this too it was so rough before#it sucks tho bc ive been so tired lately its hard for me to live up to this#which i dont hate myself for its valid its just like waaah i wanna have the energy to really put my all in friendships again#for half my life my biggest want and goal in life has been to be someone approachable and who seems kind#even to people with anxiety and i think growing up with anxiety greatly shaped that#i value being kind and compassionate and understanding to such a degree that i spent and still spend time actively working#towards that goal and unlearning being judgemental and bitter#bc i want to be kind so badly and to put kindness in the world...#no but seirously why do people date ppl they dont like#wym you guys arent so unabashedly in love that you practically see hearts thinking of them#wym your entire chest doesnt fill with joy and the simple prospect of them experiencing lifes small joys no matter how little and mundane#to love so wholly that you strive to be a good person not out of guilt or feeling like you are bad but because you desire so deeply to be#good for them and put as much goodness in their life as you can because its what they deserve...💙💙#ANYWAY LMFAO! im sappy asf as a person sorry everyone but also not sorry#pers

For the ask game ❤️💛
// Ladybug thought she had had everything handled; it was only when the blond cousin revealed his true nature that she realized she'd tied up the wrong one!
Ladybug thought she had had everything handled; it was only when the blond cousin revealed his true nature that she realized she'd tied up the wrong one!
'Damn it, Félix!' Ladybug exclaimed. 'Why didn't you say anything earlier?'
'I was curious as to why you needed my cousin so desperately as to kidnap him,' he replied from his position slung over her shoulder, still bound by her yo-yo, looking as infuriatingly calm as ever. 'You know if you just asked him that he'd go anywhere with you, Marinette. Besides, he's in London right now.'
Ladybug growled and put him down on his feet, recalling her yo-yo as she pinned her boyfriend's cousin with a glare. She was tired, and now that she got a proper look at him, he was obviously in his pyjamas with bed head, making his hair look more like Adrien's. She knew Adrien was in London, but as she swung past him earlier, he looked too much like Adrien that Ladybug couldn't help but take the opportunity to rescue what she thought was her boyfriend, too exhausted to think straight and realise it wasn't him.
'You know perfectly well why I'd go to such drastic measures,' Ladybug retorted. 'Speaking of; why did you decide that a theatre performance was the best way to tell me everything? Why didn't you and Kagami just talk to me? Preferably before Adrien was forced to leave Paris?'
'That's the way Kagami wanted to tell you,' Félix admitted, 'but I thought that the most optimum way of delivering all the information was through a storytelling medium - we figured that us performing the story would hold your attention long enough to give us a chance to make you listen to what we had to tell you.'
'Well, it did work,' Ladybug conceded, 'but I also thought I had dreamt the entire thing and struggled to put it all together. But that doesn't answer the question of why you two didn't tell me earlier.'
'Rehearsals,' answered Félix with a light shrug. 'Kagami is wonderful, but a theatre major she is not.'
'How did you convince Kagami to perform, anyway?' she asked curiously, before shaking her head to refocus. 'Ugh, tell me later. Anyway! So - Gabriel Agreste is Monarch, and you and Adrien are both part-sentimonster?'
'Correct on both counts,' he confirmed.
'And does Adrien know about any of this?' she pressed.
'To my knowledge, no,' said Félix.
Ladybug groaned. Poor Adrien was being left in the dark about, well, everything. 'Why didn't you tell him all this?'
'We couldn't risk it,' Félix answered. 'Gabriel still has possession of Adrien's amok, and therefore has control over Adrien. Telling him could jeopardise everything, including any advantage we have to defeat my uncle.'
Ladybug nodded thoughtfully. Unfortunately, Félix was right. But sooner or later, Adrien deserved to know.
'Fine,' she agreed, 'but as soon as Monarch is defeated, you have to tell Adrien everything. And you won't disappear on him like you did with me - you stay with him and answer every question he has for you, and you will comfort and support him so that he can come to terms with the bombshells you'll be dropping on him. This is your shared history - I can't be the one to tell him. Got it?'
Félix grumbled, pouting. 'I was hoping maybe that you-'
'No,' she immediately cut him off. 'Not me - you. Copy?'
He sighed. 'Fine. Now, can you take me back? I'm kinda cold.'
Ladybug shot him a deadpan look.
'You and I both know you can transform into Argos and get yourself home,' she retorted.
'But you're the one who kidnapped me,' he fired back, smirking playfully.
'I wasn't- I was trying to save Adrien-' she blustered, before sighing. 'I'm too tired for this.'
'Maybe you need some melatonin if you're struggling to sleep?' Félix suggested.
'What I need is to stop my father-in-law from destroying the universe and for him to let my husband freely live his life,' Ladybug muttered dully. After a moment, her own words registered in her mind and her eyes widened. 'I- I mean- to stop Gabriel and- boyfriend not husband-'
Félix laughed lightheartedly. 'I understood, don't worry... cousin-in-law.'
'Go home, Félix!'

I had a pretty good morning...then my coworker texted me and told me to sign in and check my salary.
I got a really big raise! Well, .75 cents is pretty big for this shit company lmao. But I got $1.50 last year so to have a raise this big on top of an unheard of amount last year is really crazy....
I'm only 40 cents away from my goal with this company. Which means I have to start deciding if I stay and hope for future financial stability with a company im admittedly fairly loyal to, or start looking to push my salary higher elsewhere.
And my partner who sees how hard I work and supports me has me like 🥺 he is amazing.
#personal life#im excited i needed this good news tbh#i almost cried#its nice to work hard towards goals and watch yourself move to them

The idea of 'The Sovereign' and this storyline in Wonder Woman by Tom King reminds me of Hydra Captain America and the Secret Empire by Nick Spencer.
#wonder woman#i didn't want to discuss this but the sovereign really makes me angry in just how lazy he is as a character#and this whole idea of a 'secret king' running America#reeks the same as 'what if Captain America was a Hydra agent all along'#not only does the conspiracy that's been created upend a lot of what's already been established in WW lore#but this is also just a lazy kind of character creation that just takes everything Diana is and makes it opposite#the Sovereign or is he a Bizarro Wonder Woman?#like Superman and Lex aren't wholly opposites their goals are the same it's their motivation that's different#Lex 'helps' because he wants to look good and get praise and money he does good for selfish reasons#meanwhile Superman does good because it's the right thing to do#the sovereign looks and feels shallow#it's trying hard to be edgy but it's cringe i mean 'lasso of lies'?#it feels like it's gonna be revealed that there wasn't ever going to be a history where the sovereign and his ilk ruled America#but someone gave this man the lasso of lies and he created his new reality off the old one LIKE when Cap was rewritten to be Hydra#and we know he gets locked up so what is the actual stakes in this story we know he gets defeated#so what makes this story important?#like wonder woman earth one did this whole arc better and the main villain being max lord aka ares made more sense#the first 6 or so issues should have been on working towards unraveling amazonian influence and power in America because a group of men#see them as a threat to American superiority if this is the direction you want to go in#snapping your fingers and fastfowarding for a first issue is not the in media res you think it is#im ranting but ww has been one of mh fav series the past few years and now#for the first time in a long time#i have to not read it because this whole storyline sucks#dc comics#i can't wait for whoever comes next to undo what's happening now because if there's one consistent thing about WW is she will be reinvented

I think... people should cultivate a skeptical, questioning mentality towards news reporting, and perhaps especially if that reporting confirms your worldview.
#and like I get it--it's hard! and requires a lot of effort!#and it doesn't feel good to feel confused and not sure what's true and what's not#or to have a conviction shaken or to have actors working towards a goal you share commit actions you don't agree with#it's so much easier and comforting to settle into an understandable narrative that casts things in black and white terms#but if we're being honest with ourselves it's never that simple#people are complicated and messy and contradictory (aren't you?)#and systems--made by people--are complicated and messy and contradictory#and no. holding space for nuance does not equal “centrism” or “both sider-ism”#you can maintain a strong stance while acknowledging complexity#but to cast any information that complicates or contradicts your world-view as 'propaganda' or lies is intellectually dishonest#it might not be true--and perhaps verifiably so!#but it also could be true--and until proven one way or another we just don't know!#and truth should always always always come before ideology#because at the end of the day it is the truth that matters
