Milk ref sheet done yaHOOOOOOOOOOO lookit my big beautiful baby they filled with joy and happiness

#milk #digital #mogimage #the worst part of making this was their fucked up hands #lemurs gotta lemur and grab fruits and branches and small animals and bugs but y'know its fucked up that they have weird hands #at least i was able to euphemistically state how much fun they have with themselves and their girlfriend #robbie just has fuckin. hoof fingers. it don't work like that for her #very sad about that #ANYWAY i learned recently from a discussion on discord about putting tattoos on furries that scars grow white fur sometimes #so i applied that here to make it look less like just fur texture on milk's arms #might tone it down eventually but im not certain #a side story about that is that milk changes the story behind all of their sh scars every time they're asked by someone they don't trust #like “yeah i broke some equipment in a hs chemistry class and stupidly tried to wipe up broken glass with my arms”#“i tried to hug a big cactus when i was younger”#or “i used to work in a kitchen and i was really bad at paying attention when cutting vegetables”#generally they just don't like to think about it so they wear funny arm socks or long sleeves most of the time but sometimes they don't car

It's always interesting to hear about people's weird/unexpected "alternate life paths". Like, something that you could have done with your life, a job you almost took, a school you almost went to, etc - that was still actually realistic enough that it could have happened, but NOW it seems to not suit your current personality.

Like for example, I currently hate advertising (how manipulative it is, brands trying to be 'relatable', social media amplifying it to an obnoxious extreme, etc.) so much that even seeing a little ad before a youtube video is grating to even witness, but there was a point in time where I was genuinely seriously considering going into marketing/making commercials as a career lol. Or like, I have a relative who was very inclined to be a pastor when they were younger, even though today they're a super strong atheist, etc. etc.

#BECAUSE I knew I really liked filming and editing things and doing set design and costume design (from having done little bits of that #here and there in media classes and my own stuff - i used to be a lot more into making videos than I am now). BUT I was always thinking #that a movie is WAAY to big and long. even a short film. So I was trying to think of ways I could still like #have the fun of scouting locations to film and dressing up actors and etc. etc. without it having to be a Huge Million Dollar Production #on tv show or movie level. SO then I was thinking about like... just doing commercials. Or music videos. Like shorter things where I still #get the fun of the filming and everything but it's less of an intensive long term project.#So there is an alternate version of me (I suppose if i somehow did not end up having physical and mental health issues #as badly somehow.. or like.. randomly came into wealth and was able to pay my way through a nice college despite missing #days constantly being out because I'm sick or something lol) that works in some corporate advertising office coming up with commercials #and directing or filming them or doing the sets for them or something in that general vicinity.#I also was considering being a corporate psychologist. or whatever its called.. oh from google:#''Industrial and organizational (I/O) psychologists study and assess individual group and organization dynamics in the workplace''#I don't think I even knew what the job entailed. I was at the time just thinking like.. the type of person that comes into a business offic #and gives everyone personality assessments or does MBTI or big-5 testing crap for whatever reason that some businesses get that #done for people. Really i just wanted to be in a Corporate Big Office setting yet still do psychology. Because I used to be really fixated #on living in a big city. Like the ideas of everything being walkable. picking up a coffee in the morning. walking to my job in a Big #Skyscraper Building. people watching in a huge hotel lobby for lunch. flying frequently (I love airplanes and airports aesthetically).#living in an apartment with a giant window overlooking the city. etc. etc. BUT that was before i had really BEEN to a city. Then I actually #hung around a city a few times and went places and I was like... AUGh... The Sensory Overwhelm.. cars people lights loudness noise scary #everything happening all at once. etc. etc. (though even when I wanted to live in a city i NEVER strove for the Night Life. when i say I #enjoy city imagery I mean like... in the day time. Many people who like cities talk about The Night Life and post pictures of cities all #lit up at night and clubs and dancing and restaurants. none of that EVER appealed to me. perhaps a sign I am not a real city person. Like #I am NOT standing in a crowded bar full of loud people in the middle of the night lol.. get AWAY from me!!) but I do adore the #architecture of like bright white clean sterile modern spaces like huge airport lobbies or malls or etc. I think thats what reminded me of #city and what I liked about the idea of that life. Like I always LOVED the layout of schools and hospitals and trainstations and public #transport in general. Though even then I knew enough that I would not be a good architect/city planner. so I guess my adoration for those #spaces was merely to be channeled into LIVING there. but then I realized I didn't even really want to do that that much. I mean I still #definitely aim to live NEAR a city. like the little areas outside of it. I would never live in a rural place 4 hours from anything. I liter #ally just COULDNT since I need close access to hospitals sometimes lol. But I used to want to live in the CENTER of citites like high rise #condo. and now I'm like.... eh....... perhaps a smaller quieter walkable space nearby lol.. ANYWAY.. alternate me in my Business Suit eheh

I'm actually rather surprised that not a single one of the boys made top three. but then again, I suppose the large number of straight men that play this game are not as visible in fan spaces as us lgbt. That is...a fortunate thing, though, I'd argue.

#bg3 #thoughts about media #with how much you see of a certain little elf- I figured he'd make the top three. but I see I figured wrong!#the top classes do not surprise me at all.#I take great interest in strategy when it comes to dbd. so I pay the same attention to strategy in bg3.#the top three classes are some of the best classes to choose for combat.#theeeen the choices stray back into RP territory.#rogue has it's uses...but less so than warlock I'd argue.#I'd say wizard and cleric are stronger than rogue too.#hell. I multiclass star into wizard once he's gotten his lvl 3 thief perks. in part for tav lore reasons. in part to maximise his strengths #stealth just isn't consistent enough in this game to pay off. in my opinion.#like the best classes I'd say are sorcerer / paladin / bard / warlock.#fighter is good for multiclassing to gain action surge. and multiclassing into war/tempest cleric can be useful too.#but fully levelling either seems pointless imo.#the race choices are 100% because of RP reasons. the stats do not whatsoever show any influence from min/maxing stats and abilities.#if that were the case. half-orc would be the top. halfing. and drow. I think duegar is good too?#tiefling being up there isn't actually TOO bad either. they are decent for mage classes.#CANNOT believe evoker wizard is the most popular though. other subclasses have better perks imo.#I also think thief is the best subclass of rogue. extra bonus action? and falling damage reduction/cannot fall prone from falling? SO good.#also my sincere congrats to the 464 maniacs who've already destroyed honour mode. you people are bananas.

went running and can report i'm still not that person

#'running is the best exercise you can do for muay thai' please don't say that #lie to me #jk it was alright. went to the park at 9pm and i've got a route now #ran some sections and walked others #so hopefully if i do it again (and again and again and again) i'll be able to keep up the running for longer #got a method of noticing change that way #which is something i'm historically quite bad at #tw for weight stuff in the rare event anyone is reading these tags #i've definitely gained muscle since starting this silly exercise habit thing #and i don't check how much i weigh because i don't care #and it would hopefully just go up anyway #but checked today for drug trial reasons and i'm 4kg less than last time? alright #again. genuinely doesn't mean much to me (anymore)#i don't think i need to lose any weight and tbh i'd rather not #but its still . ig. a sign that i've been consistent with something #which is SO hard #because i get into phases that go way too intense and then stop completely #but this is a normal amount to change by and i haven't done anything crazy #also kept it up for 6 months #so apparently i have the ability to form and keep habits now #and the weight is an indicator of that even if it was unintentional #(also for muay thai i have to be in a weight class)#(fighting is a long way off but it's at the back of my mind to pay more attention to it)#anyway. who would've thought i'd be doing this #✅️ learnt how to do habits at age 22

now that i managed to get meds for my adhd a couple months ago, i actually find it quite funny how so many people who "aren't addicted to anything" will look down on drug addicts who are addicted to "illegal" drugs like idk heroin or meth or what have you

and then turn around and go "i can't function without my morning coffee, but I'm not addicted, it just gets rid of my common caffeine withdrawal symptoms like headaches, dizzyness, tiredness (fatigue), general irritability, mental fogginess, nausea and my general bad mood in the morning, but seriously, I'm not addicted at all, I can just overall function way better with coffee in the morning and also throughout the rest of the day!"

yeah i bet you can function a lot better in your day to day life when you're not actively going through withdrawal and can get your fix several times a day at work or for less than 10 bucks at every corner in every city with even some fancy stuff on top that makes it taste even better.

yeah, you're SO much better and SO above the people who DO have a drug problem and have to spend half their paycheck or even more on their daily fix because their drug isn't so normalized that it's even considered a necessity of daily life and therefore can be gotten for cheap and the price of which is even regulated by the government is some countries.

and when i said "funny" i actually meant " incredibly infuriating and two-faced"

#i always thought this whole “addicts as 2nd class citizens” thing was bullshit #but now that i take daily meds myself i get it so much more than i did before #the average coffee drinking person is very much addicted to coffee #they get just better and cheaper access to their drug #and their price STAYS at less than 10 bucks #imagine if for every cup of coffee you had to pay 20% more than you did for the last one #the first is 10 bucks #but the next one is gonna cost you 12 bucks #the next is gonna cost 12.40 #then 14.88 #then 17.86 #then 21.43 #then 25.71 #that's the price of your seventh cup #even if you only drink one cup per day the price of your daily fix has more than coubled in just one week #and it's gonna keep increasing #your 8th cup is gonna cost 30.86$#that's a whole lot more than the 10$ you paid for your first cup isn't it?#and it's only gonna go up #each cup will be 20% more expensive than your last #9th cup: 37$#10th cup: 44.43$#that's a lot of money to pay for just one cup how could you be so irresonsible with your money?#but you need it because it helps you function #and not having it gives you withdrawal symptoms which suck #so is 50$ really that much to pay for being able to function that day?#11th cup: 53.31$#12th cup: 63.99$#13th cup: 76.78$#two weeks in and you're getting close to spending 100$ a day to just be able to function

why is it that financial aid doesnt cover taking one class. why is it that having adhd and not having access to technology and not being able to afford a textbook and getting dropped from a class for lack of participation (because you Can Not and also the workload for the class is SO very heavy) suddenly disqualifies you from any sort of financial assistance suddenly making you owe almost $800 (which you do not have) which further distracts you from paying attention so you can pass that class and not waste that same almost $800 and uh yeah

anyway i am ever so very financially In Trouble uh if anyone wants to be a bud and have my eternal gratitude.. $lunchpunk

#as if i didnt ALREADY havr so many fucking Expenses i am paying and i am also trying to save up So much money to move out and also keep thi #this car and also have insurance and have food and take care of my cat and the love of my life..#i am. fwustrated my job is Very part time and whenever i do get hired somewhere else its still gonna be ridiculous #hrgrh ok im gonna stop complaining i need to try and clean and read for that class or someyhing #i am in. a not good place rn i feel uncomfortable posting this especially being Less Active but like. .. yeah

i fucking hate being black in america sometimes

#vent #i love being black and i love my body of course #but it’s so hard. we’re always brushed over and if we say anything about it #we’re demeaning other causes and causing an issue…#there has been bills passed for the protection of the lgbtqia and asian/pasific islander communities #but there’s still no bill passed for anti lynching #black women are still payed less than white women #and i know ; i absolutely am so glad those bills were passed #i myself am queer and my boyfriend is asian #but im just . im really upset and sad #i feel over shadowed and it’s already hard with discrimination and micro aggressions and #if the kids in my class are joking about lynching me now #wjo knows what my future will be like #jf.txt #tw vent #i wish living life wasn’t so hard man. like #let’s take a daily thing like school #the teachers think that i’m up to no good just because i “look suspicious”! i have to work extra hard to be nice to everyone #and have a great record but #i see kids all the time who get away with so much bad stfuf #but then when im the one who does it i get in trouble…#i don’t feel good at all really… hopefully things can change soon

I fear that culturally we're too anti-intellectual for this conversation, but I wish we could talk about how academics are in a similar position to writers/actors/musicians in that we do all the labor for institutions like universities AND academic presses and do not get the pay, treatment, or residuals that we deserve while it all gets funneled to the higher up admin and for-profit entities

#how long can we say 'email the author of a paper if you dont have access to a journal ' before we finally grapple with the fact #that scholars do not own or financially benefit from their work #and in fact often have to PAY for a greater number of people to have access to their work through open access #also I do not think that anyone who does not work in academia has any idea just hot little professors/instructors/lecturers/etc are paid #like as an undergrad I would have guessed that faculty make low six figures #and that felt very reasonable to me #now that i'm a phd candidate i know thats a DREAM number that most people will never see #we talk about how little public school teachers are paid and most faculty make less #if youre a college student think about how much you pay in tuition and know that your teacher would be lucky to make half that in a year #as an adjunct i taught two sections of 30 students each and made less than 4000 TOTAL for the semester #even as a phd candidate at an R1 I make roughly 15 percent of the tuition paid for each class I teach #and that's as instructor of record. not a teaching assistant #anyway there is no separate struggle. all labor is exploited under capitalism

So I could really use some advice
