Petition to change “money can’t buy you happiness” to “money can’t buy you love”
Because money can’t make people love you, but not being in debt definitely makes you happy.

Money can’t buy you happiness, but happiness sure is a hell of a lot easier to find when you’re not worried about where your next meal is coming from. Christina Lauren, Dirty Rowdy Thing

if you’re buying bound fanfiction, it’s malicious. no one is entitled to owning a bound copy of their favorite fic.
the list of authors pulling their work from ao3 is only getting larger by the day. and it is a direct result of buying bound fanfics. buying bound fanfiction opens up authors, who did not consent to the selling of their works, and are not seeing any of the profit, to being sued.
there are so many free resources available to learn how to bind, there is an actual option on ao3 itself to download a fic as a pdf, there are free typeset drives and blogs dedicated to learning about bookbinding, so many warnings all over ao3 and fics themselves about how we’re toeing the line on copyright laws. how fucking despicable to see that line and just jump right over it.
capitalism assumes that everything we do has to have profit, has to create money, create monetary gain. you can just enjoy things. you really can. you can get into bookbinding and simply enjoy having the books. you can gift your books to people who will appreciate them. you don’t have to make a profit on things you didn’t even write.
if you’ve gone all the way to learning how to bind books, you can’t play dumb and pretend you don’t know the legalities of selling fanworks. i hope you’re happy with what you’ve created.

Back on my meds, making a damn decent paycheck despite how many days I had to take off this month, my mom’s feeling better now that she’s home and we’ve figured everything out, our neighbor’s gonna build us a wheelchair ramp for cheap, and my dad miiiiiiiiight be buying a new car as we speak 🤞 (my mom just can’t get into the truck anymore, and she hasn’t wanted to drive her two seater for a while now, so we’re trading it for something practical). Things are finally going fairly well, all things considered ❤️
#she speaks#after the absolute hell we’ve been in all October I think we deserve a fucking break#hopefully this post doesn’t jinx the car lol#we’re keeping the truck obv cuz like we got livestock#but the lil beamer has got to go unfortunately#sad it’s a fun lil car#but it hasn’t been getting the love it deserves and it’s time for something more suited to our needs as a family#kinda exciting really I hope we get it#we all fucking hate spending money so both my parents have been waffling on it for a couple of days#but like I told them mama you got a doctor’s appointment next week for your g tube#and then a hospital follow up with our pcp the week after that#and you’re gonna have to see a gi and a nutritionist pretty regularly#and there’s gonna be more surgeon follow ups I’m sure#and eventually we’re gonna need to take you to outpatient pt cuz we can’t have a home health pt forever#cuz insurance only pays for it for like six weeks#so either we’re gonna have to rent a car every time you go to the doctor#or we gotta buy one#and like this isnt going away you’ll have to go to the doctor often#cuz you’re missing like half of your small intestine#so getting a rental all the time is gonna suck#it would be better to have a car you can get in and out of easily just on hand#not to mention eventually you’re gonna wanna get out of this house just for the hell of it#and it’s not like we can wake up one morning and decide hey let’s go on a day trip#and then waste two hours driving back and forth from the nearest enterprise#which is on an extremely busy two lane highway and is FUCKING terrifying to get to lmfao#so with any luck my dad will keep that in mind and not back out at the dealership lol

ROPE OF THE WEEK (1):
Tumblr media
T W EVANS CORDAGE - STAR MANILA ROPE
FROM HOME TERMINA-L
(Real world equivalent to Home Depot)
WITH OVER 110 REVIEWS AND RATED AT 4.5 STARS
THIS ROPE IS BOTH BRAIDED AND TWISTED
THATS SO AMAZING!!!
THE MATERIAL OF THE ROPE IS MADE OF BOTH MANILA AND POLYPROPYLENE
I LOVE THAT IT’S MADE OF TWO MATERIALS THAT MAKES IT COOLER!!!
THE THICKNESS OF THE ROPE RANGE FROM 1/4 IN. TO 3/4 IN AND CAN BE AS LONG AS 100 FT!!!
THAT MEANS MORE ROPE TO HOLD!
BUT I’VE BEEN TOLD BY KING DEDEDE THAT I SHOULDN'T HOLD MANILA ROPES ANYMORE BECAUSE THEY’RE SCRATCHY
I’M STILL GOING TO HOLD MANILA ROPES BECAUSE THAT FACT IS FALSE! MOST MANILA ROPES ARE ABRASIVE RESISTANT
SO THAT MEANS KING DEDEDE HAS JUST BEEN BUYING SCRATCHY ROPES FALSELY ADVERTISED AS MANILA ROPES
IF I HAD TO GUESS JUST BY LOOKING AT IT, HE HAS BEEN BUYING STRAW ROPES
ISNT’T THIS ROPE JUST BEAUTIFUL?
WELL THAT’S BECAUSE IT WAS MADE FOR DECORATIVE AND LANDSCAPING PURPOSES!!!
I USE IT AS A WRAP FOR MY OUTDOOR FURNITURE AND FOR HANGING ROPES ON MY WALL BECAUSE I LOVE HOW THIS ROPE LOOKS!
I ALSO USE IT TO MAKE MY FENCES LOOK NICE
THE FENCES I USE TO KEEP OUT ANY ROBBERS WHO WANTS TO MESS WITH ME BY STEALING MY ROPES (DAROACH)
(+Some random waddle dees, Daroach only stole his rope one time btw, never again)
I HATE IT WHEN PEOPLE STEAL MY ROPE!!! IT MAKES ME FEEL SAD!!!
THIS ROPE IS ALSO VERY STURDY! HOLDING UP TO 300+ POUNDS!
THAT MEAN I CAN USE THIS ROPE TO HOLD 300+ POUNDS OF MORE ROPES
I RATE THIS ROPE A
10/10

me and the generic extra strong Tylenol and the pure rage in my system
#Every once in a while I think. It’s not too bad home. I’m over dramatic. It’s not bad and it won’t be bad when I go home and never been bad#Then actually think and remember#I shouldn’t have been hit as a small child. I thank god that my parents stopped that with me.#But also. I should have been taken seriously when I went To them with concerns and shouldn’t have been brushed off.#But also to be a 14 something year old and to realize your parents aren’t in love is a crushing feeling#Since that must have been when. 13-14. Appa passed. Pandemic times. I’m sure my father. Since this would have been the last time I saw Appa#We went down to visit. Dad didn’t go he had work. He sent us off. I remember sitting in the passenger seat by mom in driver#Dad praying for our safe travel and for him going in for a kiss and the moment of hesitation and unwant from my mother#And the awkward silence and the way everything seemed to just shift to the side#That was summer of 2019. My first time realizing my parents weren’t both in love happened when I was 13-14.#I wouldn’t wish that on anyone.#And going to college has me feeling so guilty. Like I fucking ditched my siblings? The kids I raised as a child myself?#(I had to go. I don’t know if my scholarship would have held I don’t know if my financial aid would have held. I couldn’t have waited. )#(I would have likely done something bad to myself. Genuinely. If I weren’t able to be here. If I had to stay. I wouldn’t survive that.)#my siblings are fine. They have no responsibilities. My sister is manipulative. They will manage. They want me to get the education I need#They aren’t going to have to use their own college money to pay to be able to eat because the parents won’t feed them for the summer#I went into college with at least a couple hundred less than I should have. Because I had to parent. I had to feed my siblings.#And I had to pay to fill the gas tank on my father’s gas eater truck. We couldn’t be home because of the selling home situation.#I had to do something to get us out and to feed us but I didn’t get paid back for anywhere near all of it#I don’t regret it. But a kid shouldn’t have to pay for them and their siblings to live.#But then I remember the dread I have for returning ‘home’ for the breaks. I don’t know what I’m going to do.#If I can’t work all of the breaks then I either won’t be able to pay next semester#Or I’ll have almost no money in savings. Like nothing to my name. Can’t buy gas. Can’t do anything. Can’t buy food.#Unless the next scholarship stuff I’m doing pulls through. But I’m willing to work the whole break just to get away from either house.#I want to violently shake my parents and get them to comprehend#Father you have dropped 260$ into my bank account in the last two weeks. Why could this not be earlier in the semester.#Why couldn’t that be in the time and fashion you FUCKING PROMISED for helping me pay my schooling?#You have money to spare. Stupid. Why couldn’t you help like you promised.#Mom you fucker. I get that you are kinda with a new man now. But you’re leading yourself into a relationship with a man you said yourself#You don’t want to date because he wants to move away with his sister and because he hates it here

for decades, I’ve associated any form of wealth with the absence of connection, and with hierarchies and status and anything that gives me the ‘ick’. I’ve told myself, if I had less, I would have more autonomy and I wouldn’t feel so overwhelmed when I was forced to find a home for a present I wanted for about 5 seconds once and then got over before it got into my hands—but I still needed to be grateful for. but I never had any money of my own, and the middle class facade was, well, a facade. I didn’t find out til much later.
now, I balk at the concept of money and self sabotage any time I’m given the opportunity to make some unless I’m specifically saving up for some (vaguely altruistic) thing that has a turnover time of a few months: I can see it on the horizon and I don’t think I can live without financing whatever it is. but any spare money?? I was raised Anglican among social justice causes. I feel guilty and I can’t rest until it’s gone. I complain when I don’t have enough money and when I have just enough for the occasional treat but it feels wrong and I don’t feel worthy of it because the economy has so much injustice and I can’t just. have no money to know I’m not contributing.
in the end, I’ll do what I have to to keep myself alive even with this brain even if I end up being broke all the time and constantly living on less than I should. but I don’t know how to not restrict how much money I’m allowed to have. and I know I’m causing myself extra stress and jeopardising my future but it’s something I feel like is being forced on me: money that I don’t have any control over, and physical safety. I’ve got issues with both of these things that make me act like a petulant and self destructive child. and for once I don’t know what to do—I’ve never seen someone experience this before. I’m scared I’ll never experience the happiness of having spare money. because I don’t have a lot. but when I have what seems like a lot to me I freak out and I don’t think I’ll ever be able to convince myself I deserve it

tomorrow is my first day of classes as I go back to school for the first time in eight years and my family has picked today to blow up at each other and drag me into it
#VERY long story short#after my Papa died my dad buying the house out from my mom became a real possibility again#so all of us slowed down on the house sale stuff#and that included me shifting my focus from packing and looking for a place to getting ready to start school#but as of about two and a half hours ago my father is again freaking the fuck out#and saying we need to have the house ready to go on the market in seven fucking days#bc my mom has asked for a downpayment which he says he can’t afford#(when I asked him how much she was asking for he said he didn’t know. so it’s less ‘can’t’ and more ‘doesn’t want to’ but whatever)#anyway I asked him to ask bc if it comes down to it I would prefer to loan my dad the money for the downpayment#bc in exchange I get stability while I go back to school and the money I lose in interest would just be going to increased rent anyway#so now I get a text from my mother saying ‘do not give your father money for the downpayment’#and I’ve been trying so hard to be supportive of them both without it seeming like I’m ‘taking sides’#but I kind of snapped and said ‘I love you but don’t tell me what to do. I’m not doing this to ‘bail dad out’’#‘I’m doing this bc it’s the best option for me right now.’#and now she’s not responding to me#I fucking hate this#she needs the money. I need a stable place to live. let me loan him the money so YOU have the money mom!#I know you’re worried he won’t pay me back bc he’s proven to be less than honest with his finances in the past but also.#I’m his only kid. not to be macabre but I’ll be getting it back eventually one way or another unless he somehow writes me out of his will.#just fuckin. I’m supposed to be reading through my syllabuses and figuring out bullshit websites for school rn.#I don’t want to be dealing with family drama and impending homelessness rn pls chill#personal

MULTIMUSE QUESTIONAIRE
Tagging: @infernalight, @infernal-feminae, @heartsofhell, @questionablemuses, @because-i-simp, @frostworkxfiction, @deepspacevivarium, @hotelbitches, @voxiiferous
RULES: Answer the questions with the Muses that would best fit the answers. Bonus if you give details why. If tagged, copy and paste into a new post – DO NOT REBLOG!
1) Rank your softest Muse and your toughest Muse. (Personality-wise)
My softest muse is definitely Vick. He's a 0 on the toughness scale, he's a big teddy bear and he will choose kindness over anything else at any point.
My toughest muse is probably Barbie. Girl is tough as nails and will not be stopped if she puts her mind to something. She doesn't take pain as a reason to stop and will go harder when it hurts.
2) Which Muse would blow through $1000 quickly?
Valentino, hands down. He spends $1,000 every day easily on things he doesn't even need. He loves to buy expensive things and will do so at all hours. He especially loves spending Vox's money. $1,000 is a drop in the bucket for him and he doesn't even notice spending it.
3) Do any of them have nicknames? Is there a meaning behind them?
Quite a few of them do!
Valentino answers to Bunny from his lovers, it's a subspace trigger word for him. I assigned him Bunny because he's Cute And Horny, aka a rabbit, and a bunny sub is fairly common.
4) Are any of them up-to-speed on the latest trends? Anyone more old school?
Velvette, Vox, and Valentino are obsessed with always being on top of the next new thing.
Alastor hates new things and will fight them as much as he can.
5) Who has the best relationship with their siblings?
Valentino had a fairly good relationship with his siblings when he was alive. He had seven of them, plus three live-in cousins that were like his siblings.
6) Karaoke night! Who is likely to grab the mic first and bust out a tune?
Beelzebub, Ozzie, Valentino, and Ostello! They all love to sing and party, and they're all pretty good at it. Ostello was a pop-jazz singer when he was alive and before he died in Hell, too!
7) Who is least likely to enter a beauty pageant/model?
Gretchen. She doesn't think that she's very pretty, and would just feel embarrassed even going to watch.
Travis. He is constantly told he's very ugly, and he doesn't have a very high opinion of his looks.
8) If your Muses visited a haunted house where actors scare you, who would panic and who would be unfazed? 
Chazz, Gretchen, Charlie, Anya, Magpie, Summer, Travis, and Vick would be the easiest to scare!
Valore, Dimas, Cash, Glitz, Stu, Paimon, Alastor, Darío, Niffty, and Vox would be the hardest to phase.
9) Are any of your Muses particular about taking certain modes of transportation?
Vox prefers to be driven around and doesn't like driving himself.
Valentino only likes to drive occasionally and prefers pretty sports cars when he does.
Anya and Darío are motorcycle people.
Emily enjoys bicycles!
10) Share a little-known fact about any Muse.
Adam is actually a very good father and he loves kids and babies. He is very tender with children even if he can be harder on them once they have grown into adults.

I feel like such a bitch for saying this but like getting gifts from my mother is always so awkward and I feel like a spoiled brat saying this but she just doesn’t know me that well or listen to me when I say super clear things so she always ends up getting gifts that are really expensive that I don’t like and idk how to tell her that because I can’t correct her for doing something nice but also… please talk to me before spending your money because this $75 Taylor swift hoodie is so ugly and I’ll never wear it and I’m so easy to shop for because I’m very clear and predictable
