“Between 8 am and 8 pm” is a doozy of a range for home service showing up. I suppose it’s still better than “between July 17, 2024 and July 17, 2025.

Evening Prayer - 7 May 2024
Sometimes I think it’s good to have lowered expectations. For instance, today, I lowered my expectations of what I could get done, and as a result, I was able to be a relaxed blob tonight, something I haven’t done for weeks. I don’t know why I lowered my expectations this morning, God. Was it you? Whatever the reason, I’m sure glad I did. Amen.

This is the most heartwarming thing. And my heart just doesn’t get warm anymore.
I can’t think of a more winning ending than shuffling around in slippers with two dogs in matching knitted sweater vests tagging along.
I guess I don’t aspire to much.
Doggies wanna play

YUUJI#th char development the emotional maturity..#the willingness to put aside his gojo voice personal feelings in favour of giving megumi agency over his own life#rather than burden him with expectations the way every1 has done fr both of them over the course of the series...#tears in my eyes thats my mc!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!#anyway art notes i think lower one is some of the best yuuji hair ive drawn 2 date#it's kind of similar to one of my 265 redraws but i think i struck a better balance in how thoroughly i rendered it here#proud of my me but also SO grateful tht yuuji has not been fighting me lately#so much yuuji content these past chapters i cant imagine th frustration having to Also fight him in order 2 create content fr them#anyway itafushi kaisen is real and canon and alive and yuuji singlehandedly discovered th cure 2 my mental illness w this line

I’ve now got the lowest expectations of humanity possible, I think. If I have any interaction with you and you haven’t set my dog on fire by the end of it, I’ll call it a win.

In the shape of you, something new.
[First] Prev <–-> Next
#poorly drawn mdzs#mdzs#wei wuxian#lan wangji#Better drawn mdzs#Yeah let's toss this in the 'mixed' category. Keeping you all on your toes with the quality of my work in this series.#I had to fire off some expectation-lowering shots to rebuild my energy.#I enjoy opportunities to experiment with formatting and challenge myself B*) I really like how this came out!#In this case; I have been thinking about this comic for nearly a year! The reunion scene!#The start of the festering! The longing LWJ feels contrasted against the reality that WWX has been fundamentally changed.#This is the shape of someone you knew. This is no longer the person you had in your head. Maybe that person never existed.#We build up expectations of who we want people to be - but they are never *who* that person is.#Loving the JC & LWJ parallels with this concept as well; they are both self-inflicted victims of pushing their expectations on WWX.#But we are who we are. We cannot become the idealized version of ourselves that lives in another person's head.#And I love how WWX comes back a little (a lot) horrifying. In his actions and appearance - he has changed. Maybe for the worst.

if you expect a driver to be world champion material (ruthless, ravenously ambitious, selfish, psychologically manipulative, killer instinct, able to be cold hearted to hypothermic extremes, competitive to the point of aggression, values winning more than anything and anyone in their lives) and also be a completely likeable person that is entirely a you problem
#f1#formula 1#reality check#it’s not that fucking complicated#this isn’t fiction#this is NOT FICTION#i hate to break it to you but real people are not designed for your perception#REAL PEOPLE ARE NOT DESIGNED FOR YOUR PERCEPTION#fucking hell#don’t like don’t watch#double standards#this is not an excuse for anyone’s behavior#it’s a reminder to lower your expectations#or set realistic expectations in the first place#how can you be a sore loser you’re not even the one losing#why is being a hater such a necessary part of being a fan#unfollow if you wish#this is about lando norris today#and max versrappen in 2021#and nico rosberg in 2016#and sebastian vettel in 2013#do you want me to keep going

My sort of future au designs (traced/edited their psychonauts 2 renders for this) :] they are like 13 here
#art#illustration#fanart#psychonauts#psychonauts au#future (teens) au#razputin aquato#raz psychonauts#lili zanotto#lili psychonauts#btw there's a lot of stuff about this au in my head rn so probably you can expect more posts about it. this is all I've got rn though#also. Lili is exploring gender stuff in this (my transmasc Lili headcanon :])#she's still going by she/her at this point but that probably will change#Raz also has gender stuff going on but will not figure any of that out for a while. too focused on psychonauts stuff at the moment#also (again). sometimes I forget what they look like normally and start drifting off from that when I draw them..#Raz has kind of little eyes and they're lower on his face. I always forget that when I draw him..#Lili. your eyes are so big and far apart like a horse. and your head is so wide. stop that#outfits#<- I mean. sort of

changed a username in the uptime monitoring tool but now every time there's an incident, the girl on call gets an email starting with "hello cutie~" and she gets too flustered to actually triage the issue
