Ah, now I remember why I'm looking for a new job. My boss is a mirco-manager and routinely passive-aggressive.
Me: delivering useful links in an email about a subject. My boss, sending me a snide message: They already know that.
Yeah. We do asset management. Our job is literally to make it easy and set the stage for what's available? HELLO.
Also our ticket CMS sucks ass and it a rabbit-hole of inefficient project management.
Corporate woes.
#i really don't understand why ppl gotta be passive-aggressive#like#it doesn't cost anything not to be#jobs should be as peaceful as possible because they're JOBS#my boss is sick right now but i'm also like... hmmm#our org is shit at information architecture and you want to rain that on ME?#like seriously i should not get hives sending a simple email#or feeling like CC-ing my boss will get me a snide message because i chose to send/words things differently to how she would#like literally spelling and grammar isn't the end of the world either the only ppl who over-care are ppl with...not enough going on

There's some dude (derogatory) on FB who is PISSED people are pricing their farm fresh eggs at $2 and $3 a dozen instead of $4+, saying it's "disrespectful" and "undignified" and "I'm trying to feed my kids" like Sir, you are on a Facebook group page bitching about your neighbors egg prices because your pet chickens aren't earning you a living wage and you think it's your neighbors' fault, you do not have a leg to stand on here wrt dignity.
Also half the answers are like "I give them to friends and family free" or "I donate them to food banks" or "I'm making them affordable to folks who might not otherwise be able to get them now that they're so expensive in the store" and "if you think you're going to turn a profit keeping backyard chickens you have been wildly misled" and so on, and so forth, and I'm so living for it.
and I can tell you right now, he did NOT like my answer of "if you're trying to feed your kids, I hear eggs are edible."
#chickens#like buddy you are never going to actually make a profit#and if by some miracle you do#it's going to be VERY SMALL#Considering the money you put into building or buying a coop#plus feed and bedding and equipment (waterers feeders perches etc) costs#egg cartons and enrichment and gas to go get the feed#the cost you (personally) probably put into building the egg stand you mentioned#a 50lbs bag of feed will feed 12 adult chickens for 8 days#12 chickens generally lay 6-12 eggs per day#usually less in the fall and may even stop in winter#a 50lb bag of feed is usually $12-15#and you wasted the first 6 months going eggless until they were old enough to lay#and that doesn't factor in oyster shell or anything else you may need to do for them#like worming or treating for coccidia or anything#and doesn't take into account your time#like asjh;dsfkgdh you really thought you were gonna make a buck doing this???#wank for ts

In a world where assholes never hesitate to leave cruel comments, take a moment to let your favorite artist know you think they're doing a good job.
#this brought to you by an asshole comment left on something I made which I don't feel like turning into a public spectacle today#like it really doesn't cost anything to just shut the fuck up and not tell artists mean things about their work#original post

*Different Beast motif plays*
Odysseus: *raises trident*
Odysseus, in the danger voice™: You're going to be my b*tch now, Poseidon.
Poseidon:
Poseidon: ... Alright, please...!
... 600 Strike in a nutshell, right?
#Is that not what happened?#I AM SO SORRY FOR THIS Y'ALL#actually no I'm not sorry#Steven you didn't have to sound like that#simpseidon#<that's my tag for anything one-sided Poseidon x Odysseus#Bc that's the only way I like this ship#The fact that i could technically animate this scares me#Maybe i should#poseidon x odysseus#I guess I should tag it or sth#I still don't like the requited version of this ship but WHATEVER#All of you who do can enjoy this :)#epic the musical#epic odysseus#epic poseidon#Even as someone who doesn't ship them properly i must say Poseidon IS his b*tch now#There's no way he isn't#At least that means calm and favorable seas for the rest of his life?#At the cost of one simpy god trying to still act like he hates him#Small cost?? Maybe???

okay maybe a hot take but like. people going "spirk is canon now omg!!!" after that short film that just dropped - you do realize that like. it's not any more canon than it has been for like, forever, right?
they held hands and watched the sunset together. big whoop.
yes vulcans have a whole hand-holding thing, but like. kirk and spock have held hands before, this is not? any different? than any of that???
like people are out here screaming "OMG SPIRK IS CANON AFTER 57 YEARS" guys if holding hands and staring into each other eyes while the music swells is good enough to call it "canon" then spirk has been canon since the motion picture came out in 1979.
#to be clear: it was fine!#but like. this didn't 'make spirk canon'#either it's already been canon for like FORTY YEARS#or it's not actually canon#either way this short film didn't change anything?#so i don't know why people are freaking out#spirk#star trek#not tagging the hate rn#the thing with 'canon' is that it has to be UNDENIABLE#gene roddenberry literally invented a word so that spock could call kirk his lover without actually saying 'lover'#KIRK LITERALLY ONCE SAID THAT TO NOT SAVE SPOCK WOULD COST HIM HIS *SOUL*#and that wasn't fucking canon enough for some people#so y'know.#this isn't gonna change the minds of anyone who will claim that kirk and spock aren't gay and gene never intended it#and the people who already think it was there and intentional ALREADY HAVE MOUNTAINS OF EVIDENCE#quite frankly they need to either physically kiss on the lips in a way that no one can construe as pressured/mind controlled#or literally say out loud 'we're in gay romantic love with each other'#and EVEN THEN there will be people who don't believe it or insist it doesn't count because gene's dead!!!

klaus is actually my all time favorite tvdverse character because i love a homicidal ruthless villain, but if he got to Peace after 1000 years of terrorizing people then the morality system for that is extremely whack and landon should not have had to do a damn thing to get to peace. imagine how many gold coins klaus would've had to wrack up, he should've been just wandering in limbo for several millenia if there's some kind of neutral transactional economic system for which dead people get to find peace
#legacies#the originals#klaus mikaelson#he's my bestie but like...... 1000 years of serial killing must have cost a lot of gold coins#to be fair legacies doesn't take itself or anything seriously and was a disaster so i shouldn't expect... logic#expecting logic from any tvdverse show in general is a losing battle though

thinking about the genderbent marauders again. them all being in the same sorority other than sirius who's very anti-sororities but meets james/jamie one day and they become best friends within 5 seconds only for sirius to then find out jamie is president of a sorority
#hoping quinn sees this cause they GET IT#sirius is the embodiment of that song sorority girls by mommy long legs#btw yes remus/remy is in the sorority#u guys don't get her like i do. she wants to fit in and be normal more than anything and joining a sorority was her best bet for doing so#also im british so idk much about sororities soo like. ive heard it costs money to join??#but maybe if you're at uni on scholarship then it doesn't cost to join?? idk how else remy would join otherwise#unless like. jamie's family were all in that sorority and she befriends remy in first year and pays for her so they can both join#cause she'd SO do that fr#genderbent marauders#genderbent marauders sorority au

the worst part is i can't even say he's wrong. they certainly did figure out how to contribute the city by joining the wrgp. but like. this is one of those things where it literally does not make sense. this is insane levels of logic. "we're not sure how to contribute to the city. we think entering a magic the gathering tournament will help." like. imagine saying that fr when your parents ask what you're going to do after you graduate college. "idk. thought i'd play card games and figure it out, man"
#yugioh 5ds#yusei fudo#anya rewatches yugioh 5ds sub#i'm cackling over this#like dude you FUCKIN SAVED THE CITY#ushio calling this out too with like ''uhm. you guys kinda saved the city? you don't have to prove anything?''#and they never fully answer why they feel they have to prove something#they just do#arguably this implies an insane level of overachieving from yusei crow and jack#since they're not satisfied with JUST saving the city#but like. it does kinda suck that neither crow nor jack got to move on from playing card games with this set up?#yusei moves on to working on the moment - that works SO MUCH with this statement#and their statements made here#i suppose if you take jack's ''the team that wins will have glory'' statement at face value him continuing to do dueling also makes sense#but it also DOESN'T because like. he ALREADY HAD glory. he's the fuckin former king#this tournament changes nothing. he continues on as if he's still trying to reach it#and it just. there's a lot with jack's writing this season i WILL NOT get into#but oh my god jack atlas is a woman to me the way she was mishandled#and crow's... a lot of it falls so fuckin flat#the three boys were ROBBED but also yusei fully never gets to ever reclaim being a teenager#he ends the series forced into a role he never once indicated he wanted#following the footsteps of his father who he never once indicated he wanted to follow the footsteps of#yusei's character suffers because the show never bothers to address this constant hero complex he has#it's never confronted in any MEANINGFUL way like atem and judai's were#atem's hero complex cost him everything in the waking the dragons arc for example#and judai's led him straight down the path of becoming the supreme king#but for yusei? it's never like. deconstructed. ever.#and it feels like suuuuch a missed moment to go hey yusei. you do not have to be the hero of the city. you are a teenage boy.#what you have done for the city IS ENOUGH you do not owe your life to everyone

A new sculpture! Finally... I feel like I never sculpt anymore since I'm always sick or have some 500 other things going on or projects to finish, but I'm trying to schedule time to do it more often this year hopefully..! Just a generic fantasy creature as usual, but did try making the eyes a little more sparkly this time.. hrmm..
#sculpture#fantasy art#fantasy creature#art#elf#lol what are the tags I should use... I still never know.. EVIL social media.. hate the idea of tagging anything ever anyway. but alas..#I also would ideally like to start selling them again and open up custom commmissions and stuff again once I can hopefully get paypal#stuff sorted out. and find like.. a good way to do things.. etc.. I did still want to sell them through auction instead of agonizing#over setting prices being afraid they're either too high or too low. So being able to just be like. Here. this is $50. or more. or less.#negotiate. the worth is whatever you feel like it is so i personally dont have to make that decision. etc. lol... But etsy doesn't let you#do auctions or like pay what you want type stuff so.. then I was thinking ebay? but idk.. ANYWAY.. I want to set things#up so I can sell stuff again hopefully. I still haven't fully recovered from the costs of when I had to take my cat to the vet and put#them down last year and etc. So it'd be good to sell a few things. perhaps.. maychance... perhamble... so on and so forthe... ANYWAY#I was going for whiter more milky sort of hair that blends in closely with the skintone but after the paint dried it seems more yellowy kin#of. which is fine. But just not exacltly like my mind vision lol..#Also it's like... wow... someone with face spots and elf ears and a half open mouth with a gap tooth and wavy hair and kind of downturned#eyes... revolutionary... never been seen before... every sculpture I have ever made surely doesnt look licherally exactly like this... LOL#but maybe it's just a style. so what. People have their motifs lol.. Im just getting back into sculpting. I shall sameface in peace. huzzah#Just like the only thing I ever carve out of avocado pits anymore is eyes. Because that's just whats fun to do. I'm going to accumulate lik#25 similar avocado eyes and have nothing to do with them. I was thinking of stringing some together into a necklace of eyes or something li#like that but.. hrmm... ANYWAY.. Love to do the same things repetitively. :3c

Curious that in the wake of Süleiman's first campaign, both Hürrem and Hatice are scared of forever losing the people they've come to love and have latched onto in order to keep going and find new meaning for themselves after their seemingly dealbreaking past and recent losses, all the while Hafsa reveals her intention to marry both of them off all in the same episode, thus reinforcing the alienation they would feel in Süleiman and Ibrahim's absences and threatening to fully cement it, cutting them off from their actual loves and bringing misery to them both.
#they think the possible permanent losses would happen far away where they can't see it and can't do anything to stop it#they simply learn it's happened and have to forcibly suck it and move on#thus the cause is just outside forces they can't reach#and not that both of them won't experience stuff like that later (heey some Nenni Desem parallels!)#but now the people they know are the ones who'll challenge the comfort they lean on so much#it's happening right in front of them on their watch#of course there're also differences like it all happening more slowly for one and more suddenly for the other#and Hürrem striving to stop her marriage at any cost because if she doesn't save solidify her position she'll be done for#while Hatice not even thinking about opposing it as that would mean disappointing her closest#and standing against what she believes and should adhere to no matter how much it breaks her#there's also Hafsa wanting to marry Hatice off out of genuine yet misplaced care for her well-being and happiness#and Hafsa wanting to marry Hürrem in order to nullify the threat she represents and *pretends* to show care just to achieve that#(there we go - the first instances of people thinking they know what's best for Hatice while not knowing what Hatice herself thinks at all)#but you get the idea#magnificent century#muhteşem yüzyıl#muhtesem yuzyil#hurrem sultan#hatice sultan

btw if anyone cares, how I imagine 100ft!Donnie and Empyrean Weeping Donnie interacting is just
100ft!Donnie: Draxum doesn't deserve you. You go in there and you tell him you're gone.
EW!Donnie: I'm gone?
100ft!Donnie: Again!
EW!Donnie: I'm gone!!
100ft!Donnie: Good.
100ft!Donnie: NOW GO BITE HIS FINGERS OFF!!
(Empyrean Weeping by @cupcakeslushie which you should go read)
#100 feet and a world away#empyrean weeping au#this is silly but whatever#they have no chill but it's running in different directions#they would both do anything to help their brothers though#regardless of the cost to themselves or others#and make a brother mad at them over it#100ft!Donnie doesn't think biting fingers is the solution to all problems but he DOES think it's very funny

A fun thing you don't know until you have reason to be actually getting quotes is that furniture for public/high-use/corporate (or public-ish) spaces is heckin expensive
presumably because these things need to stand up to tons of use by people over and over and over, but like
I've spent the day researching and requesting quotes for rolling whiteboards and the prices I've seen from companies I'd probably trust are so far a minimum of $800 for a single whiteboard roughly the height of an average 8-year-old.
#my office chair—swiped from what used to be a setup for patrons in the main library area—is probably a $600 chair by itself#it doesn't look impressive or executive or anything (but I love it) (which is why I was looking to see what it would cost)#bought a $100 rolling whiteboard from Amazon once to tide us over because students use these things SO much#and it died in like. 2 weeks.#Normal furniture is not made to stand up to near-constant use all day after day after day#it's not just libraries; education and corporate places seem to be the same (since what I'm looking for is also advertised for them)#anyway the lesson here is please alumni give us money so we can afford stuff#Kayt.txt#tumblarians#working in a library#library life

"Money Tree"
All this Hell Branch talk and including the non-Soul bosses and well, suddenly I HAD to address the giant tree elephant in the room...!
[For Context]
Marx: "Before I slice you up and shove you in a wood chipper a piece at a time...what's up with the drastic personality shift?"
Crown: "...Do not mistake me, Jester. I remain exactly the object your broken king knows me for, as the pain I have carved indelibly on his soul whispers to him even now..."
Crown: "But...I have not the power to Control that I did before, this incarnation of myself having been felled by another version of HIM. Ahh, he was shivering as he struck the final blow. The hot tears in his eyes. How I would have liked to feast on them like I did your king's..."
Crown: "My physical form may be buried, to take seed as a harmless fruit tree, but...the memory of my terrifying and wrathful hegemony lives on forever in the minds of every Magolor..."
Marx: "You're back to torment him more?"
Crown: "You foolish clown. I am here to play. Do you know how many years it takes an apple tree to grow from a seed? ...I tire of waiting."
Marx: "Play?! As in HERE? Nuh-uh. You gotta be insane if you think we're letting you set one branch inside our theme pa..."
Magolor: "Every ride and game costs x 1000 the list price."
Crown: "...Deal."
Marx: "Mags!?"
Magolor: "What? Money is money. And we do need a way to keep up with all the competing businesses opening up down here!"
Marx: "So Mags, would you say hell's become a hot spot? Hohoho..."
Magolor: "Heh...Heheh."
Crown: "...I'm going to get some shaved ice."
#Magoland Branch AU#Marx Kirby#Magolor#Master Crown#Mistilteinn#Dess Sketch#It takes 7-10 years (according to Google)#Also first time drawing Mistilteinn! Woo!#I know Merry Magoland doesn't charge anything but...#...Hell Branch literally has Haltmann as a founding member#So yeah stuff probably costs. ('What?' Dunno. 'Time' maybe?)#This takes place before the thing I posted last night

La Oferta de Michel \ Los Planes del Futuro de Betty y Armando
#ysblf#yo soy betty la fea#betty la fea#mystuff#i wanna say this is self explanatory#but like#u know--let me explain anyway---#michel wanted to do everything for betty without really consulting her--'i'll take care of it' he says as soon as she says she wants discus#the costs. that is not equal partnership.#that is not her having a say. and she's already been through various stages of her life where everyone gets a say in her life except her.#when armando discusses their plans for the future--its implied that he and betty had a discussion together.#they talked about the cost (he's gonna sell his apartment) and its a house they saw and betty loved.#they made plans for their life together. michel's offer was if anything a step back fm the independence she gained at the end of her arc.#and michel doesn't moisturize. why would u want that in ur life?
