I have this TAZ Balance modern AU in my head that I'll never write, but that's okay, because there's literally only two things that you need to know about it:

Kravitz and Barry both have graduate degrees

Barry and Kravitz are not using their graduate degrees even a little bit in their current career, which is running a really shitty, scam-adjacent ghost-busting business out of a garage together

#taz #taz balance #taz balance spoilers #kravitz taz #barry bluejeans #personally i think krav got a degree in something artsy that he knew he didn't have great job prospects in #and just studied for the love of the topic #whereas barry got a masters in an actually semi-employable STEM field #but got so burnt out within the first year of going for a phd that he dropped out not only of his phd program but the field altogether #it's purely up to reader interpretation though. hence not being included in the only two things you need to know

doing some research on parapsychology as a field. in short, it's the study of how the supernatural relates to psychology, and is largely regarded as pseudoscience with only a handful of people studying it, and very very few universities will even offer a parapsych program.

so… martin, buddy, did you just google 'what degrees do people get for paranormal research' and go with the first one that popped up? you did didn't you. idiot.

#i wanna know what other jobs martin applied for and thus made up degrees for.#*applies for job as a restaurant manager* ah yes i have a degree in. food and resource economics #*applies for job at amazon* i have a bachelors in packaging dw about it (actual real degree apparently)#til bowling industry management is a real university program you can persue. i don't even need to make the joke. you get it.#tma #the magnus archives #martin blackwood #original post

Reblog and put in the tags what your current career/degree is* vs the career/degree that, in retrospect, you should have gone into, knowing what you now know about yourself.

(This is NOT your dream job (who dreams of labor lol), but rather the career that your 18yo self didn’t know to explore/wasn’t encouraged to choose)

* please be as vague as needed so as not to doxx yourself 🙏 internet safety first always

#I’m in law and I absolutely love every single day of my life and my job #but if I was to start everything over from the beginning - I probably should have gone into computer science and programming #the thing I love to do most in my free time is code and learn about computer engineering #but I was labeled “bad at math” so I didn’t try for a STEM degree ¯\_(ツ)_/¯#alternatively: seminary/theology #shut up e #I’m actually curious in the responses and will probably be reading all the tags lol

Guyyyys, I got approved for partial funding for further education and I will be taking a 42hr basic voice acting class in november.

I am SO so so happy and excited. Working in voice acting/recording audiobooks etc has my absolute dream since forever and now its a big realistic step closer 🥹

#The program i applied for covers 50% of the cost for the classes #And you have to convince them that its in line with your job and degree and stuff so this feels very validating #Personal #Job adventures #Can this be the first W in my upward spiral from now on pls?

Hey, so for the Human Au, how do think Julie would go about her life? Considering her personality in the website, I would think that he takes up different part-time jobs, but mainly likes working at the community center, mainly for the summer/after school programs where they can come up with and host fun activities for the kids!

no yeah that's pretty much what i was thinking! she bounces from job to job - she probably has a roster of seasonal ones that she rotates between. Julie really does seem like an every-gal yk? doing just one thing all the time would be soooo boring

i like the idea of summer / after school programs a lot actually! since canon Julie is big on games and fun, i'm sure she'd be a great choice for those sorts of things. i bet she works a seasonal summer camp in their county!

#also it would be a cute frank-julie bestie thing #cause frank is a university professor #so then julie being in the education system as a camp counselor / school programs person whatever brains not braining rn #I Just Think It Would Be Sweet! and Fitting!#part of me wants to change Frank from university professor to like a uhhh elementary school teacher #but nah. but lets just say the local schools will have field trips and uh. idk a 'bug day'#yk how kindergartens and elementary schools would sometimes have a giant snake brought in or whatever #well i imagine that in this au frank keeps insects as 'pets'#(not pets as in companion animal but. he has a lot of arthropod tanks in his house lol)#so maybe a couple times a year he gets to interact with kids and julie's probably there too!#ohhhh maybe sometimes he'll go to the summer camp for like. education day or whatever #to talk about insects and animal safety or somethn #he's out there with a tarantula chilling on his head...#most of the kids are disinterested but one or two are so Intrigued and its. adorable. anyway this is about julie #rambles from the bog #wh modern human au #i like to think that both julie and barnaby have seasonal jobs at the county fair #it just lasts a few weeks but they have a good time! barnaby can put his clowning degree to Use!#but im having a great time picturing julie coming up with games and stuff and putting it to good use!#i bet she'd be great at finding compromises and solutions to those Schoolyard Problems yk #i said schoolyard problems and flashbacked to the multiple bad injuries at my elementary. & the seizure in hs...#hm. i saw a lot of serious shit. anyhow not the point #i bet julie is that one guy where whenever someone brings up an odd job she's like 'yeah ive done that'#slingin ice cream? catering? florist delivery? doughnut baker? budtender? running bingo night? Yes To It All!#i bet that in a way... howdy is jealous...

#im at such a weird point in my life. trying to choose between a phd and a doomed life as an academic and like just not doing that.#its crazy how not terrible i feel when im not in school. just give me tasks to do and i will do them. dont let me think.#but then im just avoiding my responsibilities. i dunno. i just feel like i would be happier with a structured job that ends when the day #is over. which is y my dad thinks i should get a government job. one of my former lab mates got a government job and he's settling into #spending the rest of his life out in Colorado. which is so weird. i dont kno how long ill be in the place im in now. will it b 4 more years?#or will it be only a few months? will i go back to school in the fall? its looking like yes bc i dont have a job lined up. but maybe ill #keep applying and dip out. let my dreams die in favor of balance and sanity. maybe some things arent meant to be.#its just so gutting. i was talking to my coworker this week. saying that im interested in so many things. i could have studied anything else #and traveled a completely different path. and a guy across the room was like: its never too late. but it feels like its too late. too late #to spend another impossible amount of money on getting a different degree. restarting on a second masters project. im almost 30.#im supposed to b saving money so that i can not work forever. but i cant do that if im just a student forever. so maybe i should just get a #job. god. but theres so much i still want to learn. and im in the perfect program for everything i thought i wanted. im in the perfect place #but everything's falling to pieces. whatever. i. just tired bc im on day 5 of work and have to go in for a day 6.#doing something i havent done before all day. but after than im going home for a week. so ill have lots to contemplate in the airport.#this is not how i thought things would turn out. but im glad im spending the summer working where i am. im learning lots on a human to human #level. and no one bleieves im 27 bc i apparently have a bby face lol. nope im 11 yrs older than u my 16yo coworker #unrelated

every day i struggle to make choices

#i should invest into some kind of education but cant make up my mind #mostly because options suck #i cant do trades unless my body sucks less which is sad because id love to be an electrician #cant even think about getting a pilots license cuz im not passing the med cert #i think id rather die than be a med assistant actually #working clinics at all makes me nervous tbh but probably where im headed in the short term #surgical tech would be cool but i cant do a Real program while working full-time #which is what limits most of my choices #i need to find more paid training programs i guess #if i had to pick a miserable but fulfilling job id go into education itself #but the teaching profession has always been in a downward spiral esp as of late #i dont want healthcare because i hate seeing dysfunctional glorified murder machines grinding around and around endlessly #acute care sucks id rather be in an icu for function but then im depressed because our patients are always dying #it was better as a phleb but this hospital doesnt have phleb and like i said im nervous about clinics #but i need to fucking commit to outpatient phlebotomy i think :/#the most fun ive had at a job ever #i wish i had more widely applicable skills but i cant be an emt/para even just for the training #because half of it is unpaid and the other half you pay for #and again #a job NOTORIOUS for being exhausting dangerous and traumatizing #if i was 17 again and wasnt escaping the tar pit of my mother id go for an english degree and i wouldnt even regret it #thinking about school in terms of a job i have to have forever vs for the sake of learning is so different #id like to know everything. i wanna read and write forever. and do research and have real technical skills that help people #im still riding off of the high of getting 5 ccs off of an oncology patient who desperately needed a port #they were able to run like seven tests off of it #i had to use a couple ped tubes #she only had to get poked Once and barely noticed it bc the doc team came in and im so happy i made her admission that muvh easier #labs are so miserable #checking back on the blood and seeing all of the results came through made me more pleased than anything else in the world

I have decided I am going to go to grad school in 2.5 years. If anyone would like to make a decision as to what I will go to grad school for. That would be great

#my issue. there are no good grad degrees for my job. and also I wouldn’t enjoy them. so I would have to. pivot careers #which is not a problem. but does mean I need to decide on one.#I’m also. tbh.#thinking about grad degree in hematology. bc I feel like it would make me feel better about doing it.#but again. does fuck all job wise. and also maybe I don’t want to do that.#etxt #and also if I do a grad program in hem I have nooooo idea what I would do for a doctorate. which I am. interested in #and then we run into the problem of just knock out a masters or bunker down for a combined masters phd

i've gotta program something soon...

#my posts #gets computer science degree #proceeds to do no programming for 4 months #i have like a few programming ideas but starting things is hard #i want to play with godot more it seems fun #i should probably also learn C++ for job reasons since i want to get into lower level/embedded stuff and only know C and rust #i guess the problem there is i'd have to like come up with a project to learn it with #preferably something lower level #maybe finally do that make your own file system project i skipped?#or like something with compression and parsing file formats #that's all pretty involved though so something like playing with godot would probably be better to get myself back in the programming mood #some sort of silly 2d game probably #i've had thoughts of making a silly little yume nikki-like for my friends to play that could be fun #or just any silly little game for just my friends idk #starting with gamemaker kinda made using other game engines a bit weird for me #so getting used to how more normal game engines work would probably be useful #i also want to mess with 3d games that seems fun too #but see the problem with all of this is that i suck at starting projects #and am even worse at actually finishing them #well i guess we'll see what happens?#also hi if you read all of this lol

grrrrr i have my graduation ceremony in two weeks and i’m both looking forward to it bc i’ll be able to catch up with all the people still in town but at the same time this year has been such a wash such a failure and i’m so not looking forward to having to tell my friends that not only do i still not have a job i just point blank have no leads or plans like how fucking embarrassing

#i have things i want to do but absolutely no energy for it #and that works as an excuse for a few weeks but it’s been basically a whole year #and i have fuck all to show for it im so fucking disappointed in myself #esp when my friends are all getting masters phds or have confirmed jobs like #it’s just so so so embarassing #personal #vent #i just got the program that’s what sparked this i’m looking over it and i just feel like a poser i don’t deserve my degree

This is a shameless pitch for my field of work but if you like biology and you like coding...consider bioinformatics as a career 👀 Especially if you live in the US, as it's well-known for its bionformatics scene.

#musings #bioinformatics #stem #computer science #python #biology #i was just thinking about how not a lot of people know that a career like bioinformatics exists #hence my little post #most people i tell my job too just look at me confused like they didnt realize you could mix these fields #and a lot of people studying biology forget about how important it is to have a quantitative skill like math or computer science or physics #simply because the programs dont teach those skills #to do any sort of custom data analysis its important to have quantitative skills #and if you're passionate about genomics especially...and dna and the genome...then this may be the field for you!#good money especially in the states #of course a graduate degree is needed #masters minimum phd preferred #i have a masters

something a little silly

(he's not actually angry at the "drugs" thing, just busy trying not to die)

oh i almost forgot

transcript of my bad handwriting:

Page 1 Panel 1: 2013, 1:38 pm (sfx: DING DING DING)

Panel 2: 9th period, 1:40 pm

Peter's internal thought bubble: "Oh shit my meds"

Panel 3:

Student 1: Hi, Mr. Parker!

Peter: mm-hm

Panel 4:

Student 1: Mr. Parker? Hello?

(Student 2: Huh?)

Panel 5:

Peter: Hm?

Student 1: What are those, tic tacs?

Student 2: No, he's doing drugs!!! (In class!)

Text pointing to Peter's hand holding his pills says "PTSD medication"

Peter: HKFGH (choking noise)

Page 2:

Panel 1:

Student 1: Are you okay?!

(Student 2: oh fuck)

Peter: COUGH COUGH

Panel 2:

(sfx: WHEEZE)

Peter: It's not DRUGS!

Panel 3, Peter cont.: Well, I mean, it is drugs, but it's prescription—it's medication. OK?

#came in through the window last night #peter parker #nadiart #fanadiart #rough art #comics #spiderman #always feel weird tagging the au stuff just cause it's so specific but... well i won't pretend i look at the peter parker tag lol #a post arguably still about a somewhat serious topic but with a more lighthearted mood #bright blue capsules = 5mg generic prazosin just fyi #he takes it starting in early 2013 to prevent flashbacks and nightmares (technically it's a blood pressure medication tho)#he takes it in morning. afternoon (at work). and bedtime. otherwise he can barely leave the house.#i was picturing this in fall after he's a little more functional but still kinda fucked #In Retrospect I'm not sure that him getting a job in 2013 makes sense though like it's a miracle he graduated from his master's program #on the other hand he strikes me as the kind of guy who works himself harder when stressed... but a few months is a very quick turnaround #maybe i should have him doing full time classes instead of pt and finish his degree over fall 2012 or smth... idk #i'll figure all that stuff out Later #anyway my approach to peter's shirts is generally anything that looks thrifted where he saw it in all its hideousness and said #''i love it''#also don't get it twisted the only reason peter even carries a water bottle is for his pills #accidentally pavlov'd himself into being hydrated but not into buying a reusable bottle lmao

dammit the only field ive really clicked with is archives/gallery work but everything ive seen is that GLAM jobs are all super competitive underpaid overworked and you need a masters degree so im like. ah.

#i applied for a newspaper tech job (aka my student job but Real) a while back #but they hired internally :(#i also applied for a document processor job and that ones still pending bc universities are slow af #and idk if im very competitive for that and i didnt tailor my resume/cover letter but im clinging to hope..... pleeeeease #it just sucks that to even Try for most glam jobs id need a wholeass masters degree that nobodys gonna pay for first lol #and granted uh. that is one of the Only fields ive tried working in lmao. i kinda liked web dev but also. web dev 💀#i dont have Quite enough tech skills to apply for most of the jobs i see at my university so i might try a boot camp or smth soon....#i found out northeastern has a masters program in compsci specifically for ppl w unrelated bachelors and thats sick as fuck #anyway! i need a job i like or im gonna die!

deciding to just give up and do the bare minimum to pass a class is sooooo fucking awesome i can't believe i spent four years of undergrad in agony trying to get As. why did i do all that.

#i was talking about school stress with my therapist the other day and she was like #well it's a master's program for library science your gpa doesn't really matter in regards to jobs #and i was like. oh. that's right.#Cs get degrees indeed!
