What We're Looking For (Writer Edition)

Since writer applications open in 5 days, here is a quick explanation of what we will be asking of our writers. If you have any questions, please send them to this blog or through the questions channel in the discord.

The writing part of this zine will be broken into a sort of continuous story, sort of how cookbooks tend to have life stories in them. Each section should be at least somewhat connected to the rest, so the writers will need to work together for at least the planning stage.

At the start, there'll be a small story of Techno and Phil chatting and Techno reminiscing about the Potato War, where Phil says something along the lines of how Techno must have gotten sick of potatoes, and Techno says he didn’t, he actually knows a lot of ways to cook them.

Then, each category of recipes will have a small ficlet of how techno learned one of the recipes in the section (chosen by the writer), either by himself or through someone else teaching him.

Finally, at the end of the recipes there'll be another bit tying into the story at the beginning, with techno saying "I told you so" to Phil, and whatever else the writer for that part wants to wrap up the story.

I GOT AN INTERNSHIP YEEHAW

#WE'RE SO BACK #it's at a day nursery 🥹🥹 i applied last week and got the offer todayyyy without even needing an interview #i sent a quick email without a cv and called earlier this week to clarify the only requirement is that i see everyday kindergarten life etc #because i wrote tons of applications and only got a reply from two of them but they turned me down so. i prepared to die #microdosing on kids by working with them and if some of them annoy me i can give them back to their parents in the afternoon #now i can actually start studying in september 😭😭#mel talks

sleepy and v fed up w this blasted reading for japanese history class tomorrow. give me 45 minutes to finish this article and i will be back to talk about kissing or something

#for the blissfully uninitiated: hello i am history student #which is a fantastic thing to be but also a significant pain in the [REDACTED] when it wants to be #the professor for this class is almost unbearably terrible which does not exactly make me WANT to do this reading #but the exam is in like 2 weeks lol #so yk. i have the hardest life of anyone on earth etc etc #god forbid i actually do the degree i asked to do lmao #also i up early this morning to drag myself to the immigration bureau for a visa amendment #which meant a decidedly unpleasant hour on the metro during rush hour :(#its bc im applying for this english TA position in spring #its literally only for 5 days and tbh i wouldn't mind doing it for free bc i am sad like that and enjoy teaching for fun #but it IS paid - and paid work is Not Allowed under my student visa #so even though i literally have not even GOT the job (applications close today) i still had to go and apply for permission to work #watch as they dont hire me lol #oh i should mention - for those who may not know i am in tokyo this year #i am british and i usually go to uni in the uk but im on a study abroad year this year #i came to japan in sept of 2023 so ive been here for coming up on 5 months and i will be going back home in august on 2024 #its weird to think that im approaching the halfway point #tbh i should really just make this a separate post but whatever #coming to japan has been very strange but a good thing i think

I can go on that ramble about the future and housing and aromanticism though now. It’s like man, the future is already something that is so inconceivable to me. To then have the sexuality that does not allow me to slot in the cookie cutter you find a romantic partner that you end up moving in with is terrible. And like In this economy I sure can’t live alone, and I know at least when I’m sick I desperately want someone to be there. And then there’s I’m likely to move around a bunch how do you deal with that housing, other than the work having paid housing. like constantly having to find somewhere that’s looking for roommates and it isn’t terrible? And then long term, when I find a job I stay at for a while (that’s remote so I’d love to live in a remote place) is it like I find a place to stay and then I’m stuck there forever and I just have to hope that I make good friends at this new place. (Friends that don’t want to live exclusively with a romantic partner no less.) I want to live with close friends so bad and I’m not sure if that’s a feasible thing for my future. I’m a person that has so much hope so I have to assume that yes it will work out, I do believe that. But man just hearing someone mention it, sparks that hope.

Oops i slipped and fell and read flwogb for the thousandth time :)))) praying to the Gods for more <3 no pressure <3

buddy you should get that checked out [ba dum tiss]

no but in all seriousness. i am 7 months into a career that pretty much consumes most hours of my working day, and on weekends i slump in bed and watch netflix because i am turning into an old hermit-- no wait, an old potato

ye gods i am living up to my username in the worst possible way

anyway i wish i could say that i can see things changing but frankly my workload only increases with every new day :( but i'm getting a severe writing itch that will end up being scratched at some point soon [she says through gritted teeth as she gets yet another notification on her work phone, resisting the urge to hurl it into the wall]

#you know what? i did actually write today. 2k words for an article for the journal of intellectual property law and practice #on a bullshit judgement that carries very little real-life applications or implications but here we are. the partner wanted it #apologies friends but after that much writing in my day-job i have very little energy to do writing for fun :/#but! i never plan on abandoning flwogb so worry not we'll get there eventually #flwogb asks #asks

*inhales*.....................DEEP SIGH

#i'm exhausted #i have a job interview this week which i should be grateful for but i'm still so unsure about what i want in life #and i'm so scared of making wrong choices like i'm terrified #and the company seems kind of conservative in its structures and culture i mean apparently there are low hierarchies but #they make their whole deal about 'family' and then there are almost only men working there which is like ughhh like the ratio is ridiculous #and the thing is i found another job offer at my local library and i would just so love to work there!!!! i will definitely apply this week #i'm just scared that i'll do well enough during the interview that they will actually want ti hire me and then i can't say no #bc i didn't even expect them to reach out to me in the first place so i guess my application was better than i thought #so now im'm debating whether i should take the chance or sabotage the interview so that i get to try really hard for #the application for the library job instead #i sound ridiculous being upset that an employer is showing interest in me like what a privilege to be able to turn that down #at the same time. like thankfully there is financial support from the government so i'm safe in that regard atm but it's really not much #and i also don't want to be in this state of unemployment for too long #and yet...i want to just spend my days doing something worthwhile? maybe i should just be grateful that i have the privilege to choose betw #different jobs and try to take advantage of that fact and opt for the offers that speak to me rather than cry about it #god i'm so stressed this is my first time in life where i can't rest assured that the upcoming years will follow the same routine #like how it was when i entered uni like i just knew 'alright i'll be studying for at least 5 years and then we'll see' and now #it's like i don't know what i'll be doing next month or in half a year or next year or in five years #the uncertainty. killing me. that's how i know i grew up way too protected cause i break under the slightest inconvenience god #alright crying rant over from now on i'll be growing up for real 👍#personal

Merry Christmas to those who celebrate, and for those who don't or can't, happy Monday, hope it's a good one

This season's been a bit of a rough one for me because reasons but we have more holiday curry planned tonight and I have plans to actually try and get my shit together in the future so that helps I think

#tapu irlposting #sorry I don't have a nice cozy holiday post to make #gf and I had a huge argument yesterday and while we're good now I have a Lot of thinking to do #about a lot of things #like I need to start writing again and get back on the therapy train and actually finish filling out those job applications I started #but getting life together is hard #and it gets even more rough when I have to go home and see my parents and deal with their complete lack of basic fucking empathy #and it hurts #I try not to let it get to me but it hurts #and I cried most of it out yesterday but thinking about it still hurts #anyway hi I got a little too vulnerable there ignore that #bottom line is I hope everyone has a nice day

bagged a trial shift at a new pub just for my manager to immediately put on facebook if anyone wants an extra shift on wednesday. he knows what im doing

#he said GET YOUR ASS BACK HERE RN #lmfaoooo the notif came through literally as i put the phone down i was like 😳😳😳#like that 'CONNOR' tiktok audio like no king im not doing anythinggg haha wdym #anyway im a bit annoyed that the first place to get back to me from my applications was this one #bc im pretty sure their pay is still minimum wage and also my cousin worked a trial shift there once #and not only did they not pay him but they also never called him back or even emailed to politely turn him down #literally just used him for free labour and that was that #word of warning from a very tired waitress if ur thinking about starting: always take trial shifts with a pinch of salt #if the trial shift is longer than 2 hours they really really should be paying you and if they dont the odds are you got mugged off #also the woman on the phone after i said i worked at the place i currently work at was like 'and do you still work there?' SHE KNOWS #and when i said yes she was like 'would you be willing to leave?' HOW CAN I BE TWO-TIMING BOTH OF YOU RN #LYING TO ONE JOB ABOUT SEEKING ANOTHER JOB LYING TO THE NEW JOB ABOUT LEAVING THE OLD ONE COME ON NOW #IM NOT BUILT FOR THESE LAYERS #but yeah summary here is i have a shift at my actual place on wednesday (thank god i havent had work in over a fucking WEEK)#and i have a trial shift at a new place where i'll most likely be offered a job. life is picking up #ALSO i have enough money to change my america flights bc basically something came up with that and i need to change my return flight #and i was originally rlly worried bc the change cost was £161 and that piled onto my current no-shifts stress was Not Fun #but ive been working a lot for my mum and i got paid for the shifts i HAVE done and it all kinda fell together anyway #the way everything is sorting itself today within the same HOUR yet ive been stressing about these things for days now #hella goes home #hella slaves to capitalism

have officially hit the point where i kinda wish people i would like to call friends drifting away for the millionth time in a row actually WAS personal so that then i wouldnt feel so fucking stupid for getting so upset about it every time

#dont read this its just for me #shoutout to every single one of my goddamn roommates not telling me they weren't planning on living on campus next semester til just now ✌#housing applications start next week . thanks guys #it'll be the same drill as every other friend i have had forever i can already tell #we wont have school keeping us seeing each other every day but say we'll hang out when we have time and then never speak again 👍#maybe thats too pessimistic but its always the fucking same. as in there is not one person i have called a friend that hasnt done that 😁#it already happened over winter break anyway #but of course this time its right when im finally opening up about the shit i genuinely enjoy for the first time in my life #actually beyond the most surface level “yeah i write fanfiction and draw undertale fanart” bs and keep everything else to myself #because for the first time ever it feels like someone actually halfway gives a fuck #and im just supposed to be normal about this information now. alright!#i'll just go back to writing my essay about how isolating my home growing up was. thats fine #i can get new roommates i can make new friends but im so sick of restarting. i dont want to fucking do this anymore

idk myb im wromg but i feel like the more the user base ages the more if you're 14 trust me it doesn't get worse than that if you're in ur 20s ur life sucks it doesn't get better till 30s etc posts there are n yh on one hand it's supposed to be 'positive' n 'reassuring' but on the other hand it's like can u not? can u just hush n let ppl live whatever stage of their life they're living without ur optimisticly disguised pessimistic sentiments

#idk it's just like such a pet peeve for me #like ok yh im overreacting #n not every post on the internet is applicable to u #scroll n move on etc #but like if u remember being 14 or in ur 20s or whatever else #you'd remember tht no somedays if any day u dont want to or need to hear tht oh #ur life rn isnt the sunflower n rainbows u think it is #ur life is actually shit #u dont start living till 40s UwU #idk i feel like there's often no middle ground in these things?#or anything #it's like from one extreme to the next #whatever #ignore me #cloud nonsense
