I feel the guilt of not caring.

It goes against my grain

to see a problem and choose

to walk away,

but this is the box they want me in.

I'll lie around pretending to be busy,

and yawn and sigh and continue

to wish for

a cause worth caring for.

#sanddollarpoems #spilled ink #poem #poetry #quick write #i really wish I could work somewhere that I felt mattered #not just a job #sigh #corporate exhaustion

#adhd #autism #Dad: Don't worry little man it's super simple! Just let me - the figure you seek support from - tell you to not be afraid #and then - stay with me here! - juuuuuust do it!#voila. my job is done you're welcome have fun doing all the research and figuring out without issue now <3 no problem #(and no of course I won't acknowledge your previous adulting accomplishments bc that's just expected stuff anyway)#||#vent #i guess? man #i don't have opinions or feelings on the internet often but man

please i love you i'm begging you bring back suspension of disbelief bring back trusting the audience like. i cannot handle any more dialogue that sounds like a legal document. "hello, i am here to talk to you about the incident from a few minutes ago, because i feel you might be unwell, and i am invested in your personal wellbeing." "thank you, i am unwell because the incident was hurtful to me due to my childhood, which was bad." I CANT!!!!

do you know how many people are mad that authors use "growled" as a word for "said"? it's just poetics! they do not literally mean "growled," it's just a common replacement for "said with force but in a low tone." it's normal! do you hear me!! help me i love you please let me out of here!!!

#i am so sick of writers having to anticipate the most boring #bad-faith readings of their work. i am like - if you use cheese as a currency #okay! as long as the world makes sense to me: cool. cheese tax. moving on.#my job as the reader is to suspend my disbelief and say okay! i am so sick of like #fanfiction authors having to write dissertations #because they had an interesting idea they'd like to try out!!!#just write it! if it doesn't make sense that's someone else's problem!!!#PS OP is autistic. yes sometimes i take things literally at first glance. then i think about it lol #this is so clearly not about accessibility etc. it's about like. girl even i an autistic person #am able to understand ''they probably didn't mean his eyes darkened LITERALLY''

do genuinely find it fascinating how indeed.com is like the biggest job-hunting website out there and yet manages to be profoundly useless in every possible way

#i'm not even being bitchy i'm just genuinely bewildered by it.#like everyone will need to search for a job at some point in their life #and everyone will need to use a job-hunting website to do it #so why are there so few options and why are they all so awful

No one tells you when you get a Big Serious Job™ how many fucking abbreviations you’ll be forced to learn.

#or how many abbreviations that you’ll come across that mean something different from what you’ve always known #I stopped reading a requisition to make this post because I read a sentence that was like #‘something something the COR and the contractor POC’#and I stopped like ‘contractor person of color???’ before remembering Point of Contract #also no one at my job tells you what any of this stuff means. they’re just like Morgan can you take care of this DOA?’#and I gotta sit there like Dead on Arrival??? before figuring out it’s a Delegation of Authority spreadsheet

I love you Safety Wizard.

(Inspired by @keroascrazy)

#safety wizard #wizard #Tumblr wants me to use the wizardposting tag so badly and I'm tempted. It's a good tag.#Shout out to stackedbirds for sending me the safety wizard post. Beloved mutual and beloved supplier of good wizard posts.#I will make it an open secret that I love me some good goofy wizards.#Safety Wizard has a special pizzazz that just gets the gears turning.#I like to imagine Safety Wizard began their studies as a traffic wizard. Then took some courses in roadside hazard magic.#This sparked an interest in safety magic and resulted in an eventual change of major - but the outfit stayed true to their roots.#All that said and done; The original costume is really good and I hope OP keeps up the good wizarding work.#Remember that distracted driving is extremely dangerous. Do not drive tired or in altered states of awareness.#It is always morally correct to call a friend of ride service if you have even the smallest doubt you will be a safe driver.#And *please* wear proper PPE on your job site. Do not put yourself or other's at risk!

the mutual aid los angeles network (malan) has put together a spreadsheet with valuable resources for people affected by the ongoing los angeles wildfires and wind storm. the sheet is constantly being updated with resources such as shelter info, animal boarding info, addresses for distribution centers, volunteer opportunities and so much more.

please share this spreadsheet widely

#los angeles #palisades fire #eaton fire #hurst fire #lidia fire #new fire just erupted in the Hollywood hills #my d*ds job burned down this morning my moms job is so close to one of the fires #i need to get back home #i see some ppl in the tags saying 'this happens every year' no this is on a completely different level #we are not in our fire season this is incredibly unprecedented and have never seen something like this #whole communities have been wiped out

the new normal

#artists on tumblr #it's just how it feels you know #trying to work and do your best #while the world is on fire #just don't look #keep your eyes on the job #but it's impossible #even if you close the blinders #you can feel the heat from the fire

David Tennant for Prime Minister, please.

edit- Since this is getting so much attention, edited to include descriptions of screenshots.

This woman has lost her fucking mind.

Jo, are you okay?

#Fuck your Rowling #Fuck terfs #David Tennant #Fuck Harry Potter #And everyone who watches Rowling’s new Harry Potter show #little whinging fuckers #gender taliban?#have you completely lost your mind JKR #maybe just stop being a little whinging fucker JKR #if he's smart he would never want this job because it's a horrible one but we'd be so much better off with a sane person in charge #But seriously Rowling are you okay?#does she look tired to you?#well I guess this has broken containment #He didn’t actually say you’re name JKR #he just called out transphobes and you assumed he was talking about you #which says you know exactly what you are and identify as a transphobe #says a lot #described

Hi I'm one of the Americans that transferred to Rednote as word of Tiktok shutdown got around. I just wanted to drop by and show everyone a comparison that is WILD to me.

These are all in Yuan, the local currency. A buck, two bucks, six bucks... that seems really nice.

And then you pop it in U.S dollars.

14 cents. 14 cents for food.

So seeing the difference there, I got curious and made a post asking the netizens how much they typically pay for things, and I asked for how much my meds would cost. These answers are eye opening.

Eleven Yuan.

A dollar and two quarters.

Without insurance, my meds are 400 bucks in U.S currency.

There's no excuses for this. No excuse for why anyone should have to live like this.

#they were baffled some of us work two jobs just to get by.#human beings are not meant to live like this #like im not saying theres one true spot thats better than everywhere else but this spot could atleast be fucking liveable.#rednote #tiktok

"when i was your age, i was working three jobs to help support my family" and "when i was in college i was sleeping on a mattress on the floor and living off of soup"

YOU SHOULDN'T HAVE HAD TO DO THAT. NO ONE SHOULD HAVE TO DO THAT. I DON'T KNOW HOW TO EXPLAIN TO YOU THAT THIS ISN'T A CHARACTER-BUILDING LESSON, IT'S JUST BAD

#have you maybe considered even once that an 8-5 job is not the natural human state #'i never had a job with so much leisure time'#YOU NEVER WORKED A SHIFT JOB #EVEN WHEN YOU WERE SCRAPING BY IN COLLEGE #I DON'T KNOW HOW TO TELL YOU THINGS HAVE GOTTEN EVEN WORSE SINCE YOU WERE MY AGE #screams forever and ever #sorry this is literally just incoherent venting

so this summer i am nannying a 5 year old who loves miraculous ladybug (my dream) & every day she asks if we can play ladybug and chat noir at the park. these are some comics based on our various games<3

#usually she is ladybug. and i’m hawkmoth #adrien is sometimes a random object or we just pretend he’s there #or sometimes i’m adrien #one time we played where she was ladybug and she betrayed me(adrien) and gave both our miraculous to hawkmoth #and i just collapsed to my knees crying from the betrayal #i’m really super normal about it.#anyway i love my job it’s great #ml #miraculous #miraculous ladybug #my art #ladybug #adrien agreste #marinette dupain cheng #it’s so funny bc i can tell by now which episodes she’s watched bc she’ll want to act them out #usually she wants to act out dark cupid #which is a banger episode. so good #or the paris special #again. banger.

Origins: the world is ending and you and your one remaining coworker are the only option left to save it.

II: the unavoidable tragedy of a queer friend group/polycule trying and failing to save their fucked up city

Inquisition: you went to a conference and accidentally ended up in charge of saving the entire world (again) with a team of colleagues who are (mostly) professionals and outstanding in their fields.

**

Veilguard:

Rook: hey, I suffered from “sudden field promotion” after “fucking everything up worse than it already was.” I’m putting a team together to kill at least one, maybe three, Gods

Seven of the most unwell people in Thedas: say no more, I’m in

#dragon age #I have to just live here for the next [checks notes] four years so #they did a really good job giving Rook my favourite aspects of the HoF and Hawke’s set ups #I mean. it is probably too soon to state this officially #but it miiiiiiiiiiight be my favourite da game???????
