Superman would not snap and go kill-mode because of a loved one dying, or seeing himself as above us, or any of the other reasons comic-makers always say.
Superman would snap and go kill-mode because living your life with super-hearing on planet Earth would drive anybody right over the edge.
#superman#I sit directly in front of my office's printer and by the end of an 8-hour day I'm ready to carve faces off#Imagine hearing every grating and unpredictable noise in the world with perfect clarity all the time forever#It's a miracle he made it out of childhood sane#Evil Superman's signature phrase should not be anything in the vein of 'Kneel before me' or 'Face true justice'#It should simply be 'SHUT UP'

four blokes who do fuck all
(top to bottom) Dedun, Sucré, Dentro, and Craine
they're all in severe debt with giratina and other legendaries due to their past life shenanigans involving hexing, cursing, and jinxing each other out of pure pettiness <33
#pokemon#anonslash’s once in a blue moon outings#pokemon oc#art#my art#dusknoir#trevenant#aegislash#cofagrigus#Theyre all forced to hustle for money#or work dead end jobs#seeing terrifying entities doing everyday activities is so funny to me for some reason#like#imagine going to your boring office job and seeing a literal coffin trying to figure out how a printer works#but its pretty normal in pokemon lol

btw etsy is doing this incredibly annoying thing that, unless i add tracking to my orders - Which I Do Not Have The Resources To Offer And It Would Increase Shipping Prices Considerably - they're gonna hold on to a third of the money i make from sales for an additional 45 days after :') just because i haven't been using my etsy shop for a while, so it's "suspicious" - even though i HAVE used it in the past and never received complaints about my orders. haha!! what a user friendly platform!!!!!
not to mention all the recommendations like "you know, if you offer free shipping you'll sell better :)" "1-3 days processing time is worse for sales than 1-2 days processing time, you should REALLY CONSIDER going for that one instead :)" "you should add videos of your wares, it'll sell better :)" when i just. i just wanna sell my little pieces of paper i have been drawing on. i just want a convenient and accessible storefront and sell things in a way that is convenient and accesible to me. is it really So Much to ask for
anyway does anyone know if ko-fi store is any better to use? switching to a different storefront may be a hassle but i'm not sure how long my tolerance for etsy's bullshit will last
#i can wait 45 days for my money it's FINE <- through gritted teeth#any advice/experiences welcome#i do not have the time or resources to allocate to Selling Art on Etsy so i need things to be very low threshold and managable#all the post offices are really far away and i don't have a printer#and truly. what do i have going for me if not 3 dollars international shipping.#sending 1 envelope of mail is very nice easy and good i can do that so fast and so well#also i have made a total of like. 2 sales this entire month#one of which was my discounted pixie#does a little twirl and a wink. would u like a piece of Unique Original Art......... Belonging To You...............................#i know everyone is probably a little strapped for cash this month i Understand

guys i caught a mouse at work today
#i was walking the tech guy back because one of our printers broke#and i opened the door like yeah its right back he- thats a mouse. thats a mouse sitting in the middle of the room#he was very small and i think very confused/freaked out because he just let me. scoop him up. into my gentle loving arms#like he tried to run a little but he didn’t seem to really know where to go#so i was just on the floor like trying to get ahold of this very tiny very pathetic mouse without hurting it#while saying hey um. dont mind me printers right there with a mouse half in my hands#printer guy brought me over a little basket he found and i scooped mousie into the basket#and then i had a mouse in a basket. so i went back into the lobby and went Guys i have a Mouse in a Basket#and then my supervisor escorted me outside and we found a nice little tree with some shade and little plants to dump him at#except hed been scrambling up the basket the whole time and i think hes just accepted his fate to live there forever by then#because he would Not get out of the basket. i had to very very gently scooch him out#and yeah. maybe i pet the mouse. what do you want from me. he was very small and cute and very soft and rabbies isnt real and cant hurt me#he was so fucking cute. oh my god he was so cute. i hope he does well for himself#coworker was like ‘youre just gonna put him outside to be somethings lunch?’#and i said well. better he be lunch for someone than die in a gluetrap in some dark corner of the office#slightly more dignified way to go. benefits something. but i will be praying for a long and happy life for him regardless#every single time ive seen a mouse in my life ive immediately gone ‘oh im fucking Getting You’ <- lovingly and adoringly#so far im 2 for 5. 40% accuracy rate of Getting That Sucker#which i dont think is too bad considering mice are very small and quick and good at not being getted

The passport application process as a first time passport applicant is so daunting to me. Worst $300 I’ve ever had to spend and you don’t get that money back if your app gets denied?! What the fuck?
#personal#My printer doesn’t have a copier so I have to make copies of my birth certificate and license tomorrow on my lunch hour.#And my appointment for my passport is TOMORROW after work at the post office. I’m so scared they’re gonna be mean.#Eveey post office I’ve walked into the workers are either total sweethearts or are so rude. No in between.#And you can’t smile in your passport photo so I’m just gonna have my very bad RBF staring back at me for the next 10 years… Lovely.

#random personal stuff#personal whining feel free to ignore#why forward me an email with additional information#when you could PRINT the email and scribble your additional remarks on it and highlight what you want me to do like I can't read#and hand me the printouts#that's so much more efficient#and not at all wasteful#this man prints every dang thing whether it needs it or not#it was like pulling teeth trying to get him to email me book order requests at all#and now we're back to square one#(it's the guy with the humming & loud videos & p o l i t i c al cartoons & questionable book orders & using my printer for pointless things#& the whim vacation which of course he got permission for with no problem)#(he'll be out the rest of the week leaving just two of us here and I am struggling to exist in the same office with him right now)#(I have been putting up with the nonsense for seven years and I am losing patience & I don't know why he won't retire because he's like 80)

I'm gonna try really hard to organize my room tomorrow
#my diary#I'm newly motivated I need more space#all the clutter is depressing me#I literally opened paint dot net and sketched out a layout lol#I have stuff I haven't even unpacked yet it's been two months#I'd like to also maybe get a chair and macguyver some kind of office space for myself in there but idk man#I definitely don't have room for a desk#it wouldn't be comfy but I could use my printer cart as a desk

Fuuuuck i put off printing important documents for my appointment tomorrow morning until the last minute and now my printer ran out of ink and Everywhere is closed i am so royally fucked!!
#i worry that if i ask the guy to print it while im there he will be pissed at my lack of preparation and deny my visa renewall#i might be able to skate by with the 2 documents that i was able to get before the printer pooped out on me#but thats banking on them having the aplication form at the office for me to fill out#and also he didnt say which proof of registration form to bring so i might need all 3#good god i am Anxious

Should I put in a request for home office if/when temps are expected to rise to 30+c? Poor thermoregulation and heat doesn't really seem like a good combo when it also involves an office with a southfacing wall of windows...
#Ngl our shared office is a heatbox... Fucking sauna.#I do have a private office on the north side of the building as part of my tech support job#but that place is freezing (bc north) & also has one of our two printers & sees a lot of traffic so you can't work in peace...#So between the oven and the fridge.... Neither really is optimal for my iron deficient ass...#And nobody wants me passing out at work. It creates unnecessary paperwork. Especially if I get hurt.#And this doesn't even mention rush hour public transport. If the office is a sauna; public transport is hell.#damie talks

keep bringing new cool decor and stuff into my office/studio except I don't put it where it goes so now the floor of my office is covered in cool stuff and the walls are completely bare
#its kind of a chain effect bc my framed art is on the floor along the wall#which stops me from assembling a stand for my printer there so my printer is on its box in front of the framed art#and i cant get to my office closet to hang my newest lolita dress so its sitting on top of the printer#the whole thing is giving hoarder vibes but it literally all gets solved in an afternoon if i hang the art#personal

My office divvies up part of our caseload alphabetically, and one of our secretaries just sent me a new file that's not in my part of the alphabet. Because I'm so very helpful I responded:
Moments later, the printer in my office fired up and spit out this piece of paper:
#god i love my coworkers#our secretaries are great i adore them#to be clear this was a joke and was taken that way by the secretary in question

there is no greater feeling in the world than finally getting a printer to connect, especially when you're trying to install it in a hostile environment (connected by usb to a windows computer but needs to be accessible by a mac on a public network)
#i am the queen of printers i kicked that printer's ass#and it only took me 3 hours#with a small hiccup at hour 2 where i got my mac connected but it would only print blank sheets#anyway my resulting scream of triumph when it finally worked was so loud#the woman in the office across the hall waved at me and then shut her door lol

oh so crazy my coworker friend was asking about my date and we’re discussing that i mention the location another coworker jumps into the discussion starts talking at length about his old job there so i talk to him about that for a bit and then go back to my original coworker to talk about my date he comes into the convo again showing photos of said job and it was like uh? oKay????
#personal#my friend coworker did not engage and left when he was showing photos and came by when he walked out but it was weird#like we were talking amongst ourselves about a specific topic he comes into the conversation and just dominates it with his thing?#and not to pull my autism card but pulling my autism card yeah that was off!!!#i want to like this guy but he pisses me off sometimes#like sometimes i’m at work with headphones in and he’ll start talking at me at length about something of his#which would be chill if we were hanging like that like i love a good dump session#but talks at you doesn’t rlly. expect real input? and dips#also complains a lot#oh and the other day i’m at my desk doing work with headphones on he comes up and is like hey graham#i’m like oh what’s up? and he starts asking questions about the printer and i’m like ? and answer them#which btw most questions where in regards to soemthing discussed in the teams chat#but i tell him and he’s like okay and goes and check to see if anyone is in line for the one working printer on the list in the other room#someone else comes to the printer i’m like woah hold up he’s checking rn but he was there#he comes by like oh hey no one is on the wait list! :) so i’m like okay? you. you can use it then?#and then him and the other coworker were looking at me and were like but who gets to use it first#and i should mention we all get paid the same and one of the two trained ME#so i’m like oh yall work that out and i put my headphones back in but it was weird#another dude in the office did something similar i was working on stuff with headphones in#he comes up to my desk like hey graham the specific machine is giving me an issue and i was like uh? i can take a look?#and he’s been here a minute before me#anyway i take a look and i do fix it for him but that was weird too like we are in the same position do you know this#the coworkers i eat with one was like have you guys noticed the white people at the office are like? a little helpless? and they are!!!!!
