I just think that if you pay a subscription for a service it should be illegal to then have pop-ups asking you to pay for more stuff. I want to kill intuit with hammers
#this is about quickbooks#intuit most evil of companies#unfortunately if you want to have your accounting work with pretty much any other person#like accountants or tax people#you just....have to have intuit!#and every time I log in they're like WOUDL YOU LIKE TO PAY A MILLION DOLLARS TO HAVE US DO YOUR TAXES#no intuit I would not!#I have your stupid service so I can have smart humans do my taxes!#I guess I could personally do my accounting by hand#but....my god I would fuck up so much#the ONE year I did my own taxes I got audited lol#(this is not to scare people about doing their own taxes - if you have a normal ass job you can do it)#(my taxes are decently complicated)#(and pls use the government's new service instead of evil intuit's dark patterning)#lauren says things#anyway

everyone has to be a little less mean to themselves about not reading enough books. letting go of reading as a pride thing is the first step to relearning how to actually enjoy reading for pleasure again. it's totally fine to start with a novella or with a comic or with a field guide or with literature meant for someone younger instead of being mad at yourself for not grokking ulysses in a week. just vary your diet and you'll be good.
i'm a literature scholar, i'm the one who has to be strict with myself about page counts and citations. you all? do what you want, just read and have fun.
#seeing so much “no one reads anymore! i don't read anymore!” doom and gloom everywhere#stop that! go read a 50 page novella as slowly as you want and sleep soundly at night.#none of you are stupid. fake concept.#however: many of you are wrong#victor text#also: i was assigned ulysses. had to read it in a week#it was basically fine as long as i used the big annotated guide of What Aspects Of Contemporaneous Irish Culture Were Being Referenced Here#with a big helping of 'oh okay that would have been impossible to intuit on my own i'm so glad i looked it up'

i am aware this would most likely never ever happen but can you imagine spock giving kirk a back/neck rub - as he so clearly expects - and accidentally vulcan pinching him. slumps. ah. i did not intend to do that. bridge goes silent. cap's down. someone douse him with water or something
#listen i KNOW spock is too calculated and precise for that but just IMAGINE FOR A SECOND#'my deepest apologies captain' whilst kirk is waking like a cryptid at 5am. frog blinking.#i KNOW spock would never let that happen BUT LISTENN#not equipped for rambling#spock gets too distracted by the colour warmth sensation feeling intuition that is kirks human mind n accidentally does it a little too har#shitposting#tos kirk#tos spock#spirk#james t kirk#kirk#spock#star trek#star trek tos#star trek the original series#jim kirk#captain kirk#edit: spock with an arm across kirks chest and a hand gently pressed against his forehead so he doesnt fall over :]]#reflexes kick in QUICK#ofc he looks calm and neutral as ever but on the inside hes like aoughhh fuuuckkkk shiiittttt#did it by accident but the imagery is nice....holding him.....#ever so gingerly#kirk blinking awake like '...??'#'please accept my deepest apologies captain'#'...did you vulcan pinch me?'#'on complete accident i assure you. i began to...reminisce and utilised muscle memory. it shall not happen again.'#kirk whilst laughing: 'awfully roundabout way of saying you got distracted mr spock'#'...indeed. would-'#'oh nono no stay where you are. if you- wouldnt mind. that kink in my back- its still-'#'as you wish captain.'

Thinking about the weird camaraderie that exists between demons but not angels in GO.
Have we ever seen two angels who are actually friends? Or even friendly to one another? We have met angels with a capacity to be friendly in general, but I think the closest we've come to two angels actually getting along would be Gabriel making a point to laugh at Sandalphon's terrible "can't have a war without War" line in S1.
Most scenes between the angels actually seem to have an undercurrent of absolute hostility. Teeth-clenched teamwork. No wonder it took them so long to notice that Aziraphale wasn't on the same page as the rest of them! The rest of them are barely on the same page as one another, either! When Gabriel goes against the majority vote, no one bats an eye at demoting him and wiping his memory. Michael and Uriel immediately begin vying for his job. The only times we've seen angels team up is when they're working together to bully someone else, like when they're trying to intimidate Aziraphale in S1 or going to the aftermath of the bookshop raid in S2.
Saraqael's overall neutrality towards Muriel is the closest we get to two angels in Heaven getting along, and it's more a lack of hostility than any kind of friendliness. At least until Gabriel loses his memories and Muriel shows up to spy on Aziraphale, and Aziraphale decides to be kind to both of them.
Demons, on the other hand, actually seem to form alliances and even friendships among one another. Hastur and Ligur are awful, but Hastur seems genuinely distraught over Ligur's death, not just fearful of suffering the same fate. Shax and Furfur conspire together and even though the 1940's investigation into Crowley's fraternizing doesn't work out for Furfur, it's not due to any double-crossing on Shax's part. Unlike the angels, who stick almost exclusively to making threats until the Metatron decides to try dangling a carrot at the end of the season, demons actually offer rewards to other demons when trying to work together. Beelzebub offers Crowley a promotion if he can bring them Gabriel, Furfur offers to back Shax up politically if she goes for the Duke position opening, and Crowley successfully stalls Hastur in S1 by pretending everything was a test and he's going to be put in charge of a legion as a reward for passing. They're still not great at socializing, but they're significantly ahead of the angels.
Of course, it's a fact that demons are awful to one another (Eric's treatment is really bad, they throw that random demon into holy water just to test it, "it'd be a funny world if demons went around trusting one another", etc) but they still seem more capable of forming friendships than the angels do.
I think that's because Hell cramps and crowds everyone together to try and increase their suffering and hostility, whereas Heaven isolates angels to decrease the odds of questioning or rebellion. Hell's methods are unpleasant, but it still ends up putting demons together, and some of those demons inevitably forge alliances and make friendships. Because as Crowley and Beelzebub demonstrate, demons are still social creatures with the capacity for love and affection, even if it's strongly discouraged and buried under nine million layers of trauma and a cultural mandate against kindness.
Angels are the same, but isolation makes is harder to form connections than overcrowding. Muriel and Jimbriel are both so eager to make friends, but Muriel's spent the past millennia shut in an empty office, and Gabriel has been distanced from his peers both through his position and also through Heaven's culture of fear and surveillance. He only breaks away from it when he finds something that's stronger than "choosing sides" (stronger than the fear of being rejected by Heaven and Falling, in fact strong enough that Falling seems worth it if he gets to be with someone he loves). Both Muriel and Gabriel are only able to start forming connections when they're away from Heaven.
I just think it's interesting that demons, despite being supposedly devoid of love, have an advantage in forming relationships compared to angels. Angels are supposed to love, but have far fewer opportunities to actually do so. Demons aren't supposed to love, but they make connections anyway.
#good omens#ineffable bureaucracy#both angels and demons are suckers for a bit of kindness too#even if they pretend otherwise and even if there are exceptions to the rule#like yeah you're probably not gonna win over the likes of hastur or michael with a nicety#but according to word of god furfur would be highly susceptible to a kind word#and well we see how it is with muriel and jim#i think this is why shax also weirdly toes the line between getting crowley destroyed and being almost-friends with him#that's just how it works in hell when you don't actually despise somebody#you can't be nice to them but you're still also kind of helpful and non-hostile a lot#don't let it interfere with your goals but sure deliver their mail and get their help with your boiler issues why not#maggie took the wrong approach to confronting the demons#if she'd been nice instead of telling them off they wouldn't have known how to handle it i bet#they're USED to being mocked and yelled at#should have given them jim's tray of canapes and offered them tea and stuff#not that I expect anyone to intuit that under the circumstances just that it might have actually held them off a lot longer#bunch of demons sitting outside of a bookshop passing around a tray of tiny little dinners and listening to records playing from inside

Despite losing their memories, I always imagined Hero had some instinctual feelings regarding the world. Namely, that somehow something simple like a sunrise was a rare treasure that they never got to experience before
#Treecko#skitty#pmd#pokemon doodles#original art#Idk it just felt like they would have an idea of how the world (as they know it) works?#Like if you lost your memories and saw all leaves were purple instead of green#I feel you’d have an instinctual feeling something was…off#Bc hero knew things it wasn’t like having a newborn’s brain in a child/teen’s body#And they did have some basic intuition like having been in a place before or knowing a place#But the rolling waves the wind the sun……#They never had any of that before!

my not-so serious theory on what's up with Whit is that he's not the traitor, nor the mastermind, nor is he timelooping, but he just does not have the same amnesia as everyone else. however at this point it's too late to bring this up without it seeming Extremely suspicious because no one else seems to share his same predicament. so he just keeps it to himself until he finds a good way to share it. bearer of the curse and all that. this explains exactly three things and nothing else
#drdt#danganronpa despair time#whit young#drdt spoilers#the three things in question are:#1) 'hey redhead ! long time no see !'#2) him getting close to and trusting Charles very quick#3) his' intuition'#you can also put him keeping David's secret under this if you want. as in he knew of David's insecurities pregame#and was like. 'you know maybe revealing this to the world be bad for him'#'hm. maybe it'd be weird if I knew why this would affect him so bad. I'll just say its for his career'#nooty lore

A nominally useful but mostly just-for-fun little project, using wool from the Shetland Islands kindly brought back for me by a family friend this summer. The pattern is Beeswax Mitts by Amy van de Laar on Ravelry.
#i really liked this pattern; it was largely intuitive after you got the hang of it and i appreciated her trick for crossing the#single-stitch cables#i think the only thing i changed was the number of stitches picked up for the thumb because why oh why do pattern designers insist on#telling you to pick up a tiny number of stitches that is sure to result in holes#when instead they could. not do that.#knitting#unblocked but i'm not sure i will; it would even out the ribbing a bit but the design came out neatly and i'll just be wearing them around

forget about fatal flaws or mental illness or whatever. how does your blorbo feel about math
#taylor.txt#im a self-projector first and foremost but unfortunately i have to accept that goh would not have failed calculus class JXLSJXZKNX#hes NOT just like me for real. not this time#shigegou are a math couple to me they bond by like finding the most fuckass integrals that no one can solve on math stackexchange#and then they see who can solve it first. and thats how they resolve arguments. but then they argue even more#as an aside ash isnt a math person on paper like dont ask him to do algebra cause he’ll be like whats tbaf a pokemon?? but he does have an#INCREDIBLY intuitive understanding of spaces and forces and thats not me projecting my love of physics on to a character thats canon#one day i’ll write the essay complete with all the anime physics formulae and everything

Today, when I was putting a quilt on a quilting frame, my mind wandered to Dragon Age and I couldn't stop thinking about this question because I couldn't answer it, even after like 15 minutes of hard thought. So I turn to you guys.
Why do you think Solas likes Mythal?
#Dragon Age#do you have like an intuitive idea about why he approves of her?#if anyone else did some of the things she did I think he would hate them#so what is going on there?#DA replay

"strongest sky"
#star's shinies#khr#luce khr#skies are so broken in khr and the fact that we only hear that the GN skies are strongest is so freakin sad#like their future vision isn't really touched on and is put on a similar level to like hyper intuition#and the fact that they can resurrect the Arcobaleno isn't portrayed as a feat of insane strength but instead a wishy washy#“the pacifiers let them do it” (read: its not really their power) and isn't it so sad that they sacrifice themselves like this?#like#if they were just non combatant but still the strongest that would be one thing- that would be cool#but they don't get to demonstrate their strength as being anything but similar or weaker then other skies like Tsuna or Byakuran or Xanxus#who are absolutely powerful skies#but I want to see the same power scale that we do with the others#there is no sun comparable to Reborn#no mist comparable to Mammon (discounting the cheating that takes place)#there should be no sky comparable to Luce Aria Yuni except each other#Luce bound the Arcobaleno! that's gotta be a feat of insane strength#maybe that takes most of their power and energy? ofc that's not the in story reason but I can headcanon#katekyo hitman reborn

The "robot/alien learns how to love" trope is just aphobia btw.
#i could write a whole essay#i mean i did talk about this in my pinned essay but it's not the main thesis#but fundamentally if this was any other orientation. if this was a gay non human who learnt how to love the opposite binary gender-#you would all understand intuitively#but aromanticism and asexuality aren't viewed as real orientations so people don't care#like if someone uses the labels you go “oh alright i'm a queer/an ally i gotta respect that” but this is fake acceptance#bc if someone shows a lack of interest without using those labels the default response is “there's something wrong with you”#“you're lying” “you just haven't met the right person who will fix you” “you're repressed”#and this attitude makes it into fiction where they make fantasies of fixing the poor non human aroace so they can be a real person#aro#ace#aromantic#asexual#aroace#aphobia#foenixed.txt

y’all i was thinking about the bees last night while falling asleep and imagining a scenario where they actually get to discuss their feelings post-confession, now that the cat’s out of the bag and they’ve had their tongues down each others’ throats
and i just imagined yang confessing that she’s liked blake since beacon, but knew that blake was going through some shit and didn’t want to come off too strong or catch blake at a bad time, instead just wanting to be there for her however she could. and also, yennow, the sun of it all, and yang worrying blake might not even be into girls, before blake reassures her by saying something about having a thing for “hot blonde bombshells”
and that got me imagining how fucking adorable yang would be if she heard blake call her hot and be all “you think i’m hot? 👉👈👉👈” god i need this
#rwby#bumbleby#rwby volume 9#i thought about writing it as a fic#but dear god writing is so hard these days#and i can’t really imagine in my mind how i would write it#i���ve lost the intuition of prose#plus i’ve got waaaaaaaay too many wips to start a new one#but also what if 👀👀👀
