thinking thoughts and idk about y'all but there's a world of difference between 'you should go along with the toxic boss's bullshit' and 'please don't unnecessarily antagonise someone who is in a position of power over you' and while i don't think the first will happen for obvious reasons i can kind of see the second for reasons that feel equally obvious to me. idk if it's an age thing, an experience of toxic workplaces thing, a growing up under section 28 thing or what but 'protect yourself where you can when you have to' is like...the queer experience 101 for me. and like, i LOVE that for some people that isn't it, but it's okay that for some of us it is.
idk, i don't think i'm expressing this well, but i think what i'm trying to say is that gerrard could be a source of conflict for them without either of them being in the wrong
#911 abc#bucktommy#i can't stop thinking about this#me: why am i so invested in this fictional pairing why is this the thing that's got me back into fandom after so long#also me: was my wife's bisexual awakening and had to move workplace to feel safe being out by default and missed out on#some formative experiences because the closet is a nightmare that keeps you safe and you'll feel complicated about it forever#lol I'm so fuckin predictable

Folks I really need to [remembers suicide jokes are detrimental to myself and others] book an emergency psych session
#personal#raven rambles#im really struggling#found out today that if my dad's workplace bullying lawsuit doesnt go in his favour next month#that my nesting partner and the labrador and the mini foxie and I would be kicked out of the granny flat#and we would have to rent the back room of my parents house#which is basically the situation we were living in seven years ago#so essentially my nesting partner and I are looking at marie kondo-ing our possessions and packing them#because the moment my parents find out is when we are being told we either get to stay or have x amount of time to get out#and i am NOT about that life I hate my parents having so much control over where I live#basically hes looking at selling his car so that he can buy us a place to live that moves#silver lining is that maybe if we live in a caravan or a kotorhome#also lmao i cannot schedule an emergency session because I have $5 left til february 10th#ya know what that means!!!#i dont have enough money for chicken nuggets :(#anyway im fine like im not at all okay but im fine#i am not going anywhere at all i am safe i am just venting

Enrique looks kind of... not as collected as usual, today. Instead looking as though tired and a lil annoyed as they seek out their friend Rika. When they find her, they kind of wordlessly slump against her shoulder as if they were a grouchy garchomp, and kind of. Just start carefully gnawing on her shoulder thru the woman's shirt, grumbling.
((jfdhdf henlo have them being kinda non verbal to match rikas feral :D))
☠🌏– She's sitting on the grass outside the League building, head lifted and eyes closed as she took in the gentle sunlight of spring. She breathes in and out as she basks in it, enjoying her current state of silence. That's when she feels Enrique sitting by her side and-
She jolts up slightly, not out of surprise from feeling them sit by her (as she's heard them approaching for a bit now), but because of what they did next, teeth nibbling on the fabric of her shirt.
What... is this? Why are they doing this?
She's more than used to displaying that kind of behavior herself, but she's never seen anyone else doing that. However, because of that, a few questions come to her mind...
Have they seen me do this? Did they know what that meant?
Do they know?
Unfortunately, she's unable to respond verbally, so she simply... takes one of their hands with the one whose arm wasn't being nibbled on and simply holds it reassuringly. They seem a bit exhausted and irritated, she can tell that much. And she can relate, let's be real.
#( ic );#v: ( the workplace );#( ask );#exnusquam#( nonverbal time yippeeeeeeeee )#( rika's not used to seeing someone 'speaking in her language' so she's a bit nervous LOL )#( but she appreciates that enrique feels safe enough to be vulnerable like that around her- )

People keep complimenting my clothes ???? Confused. It's a plain dark green cardigan. Why.
#yes it's nice kind of it's not a negative but this is not standard workplace conversation and idk why it's happening or how to respond#(some form of thank you)#being looked at enough that people notice new or rarely worn clothes on you is a potential risk factor for some type of trouble#makes me nervous#people can say a nice thing about you to you and a bad thing about the exact same thing about you to a coworker or friend#being ignored is the safe zone and i am apparently not inside it in this workplace#ridiculous thing to be nervous about but someone who hates your personality notices details about your personality#other people generally do not notice or care to find out things about you. people only do if they have a reason to#i can't just turn the danger radar off#but also it's a pretty standard social script for people to compliment each others clothing and it can even be considered polite#so it's not reasonable to assume it's a bad sign or discourage it#the brain works in mysterious ways#i need to find a way to turn the threat radar off

LOOKBOOK: SABLE HART
Although technically an academic, Sable is always ready to be onsite at the drop of a hat. Comfort and practicality are her priorities every day -- most of her clothes are loose fitting and flowing, held up with suspenders. She has a couple of more form fitting things (see bottom right) for when she needs to dress up, but her students are more used to seeing her lecture in practical clothing.
Her hair is worn braided for practicality, and when she needs to get it out of her face she will tie it back with a cute little bow - which is one of her only daily nods to girliness.
Daily vibe is: sensible workboots caked in years of sand and mud (the mud is probably all that's keeping them together); a giant bag filled with books, equipment, water bottle, first aid kit, snacks, anything useful; long sleeves and trousers for protection from the sun; waistcoat and a bow if she's trying to be a little bit fancier.
#inspo.#sable turns up to a council meeting in dungarees with dirt on the knees and leizu wants her DEAD#this is 100% opposite to her younger self#in her twenties she was princess girlypop everything was pink and pretty and ultrafeminine#her cute lil bows are so she doesn't forget the little girl she was#but the comfy clothes are so she is SAFE and COMFORTABLE in the WORKPLACE

watching hush and the lil "it could be one of your prophetic dreams or it could be part of the eternal mystery that is your brain." he says that soooooo lovingly like u can Hear the <3 emoji @ the end of that sentence
#i am having a normal one#something abt their relationship in season 4 in particular!!!!#it is like. giles is no longer in the workplace and buffy isnt answering to the council anymore#so they are reaching out to each other so much more deliberately now!!! they are choosing this!!#and we have the costuming here too like hes not all tweeded up he is at home in his cozy sweaters#like yes he is in a deep depression and midlife crisis rn but also#i think that is Part of how their relationship is the way it is this season bc he and buffy both feel out of place#between unemployment and college#but they are familiar to each other and they are a safe place to go back to#so they are just. Comfortable acting like family and having thanksgiving dinner at his home and dont get me started on something blue#this is a tangent i didnt plan to go on. but here we are#i love s4 i am tired of being silent (i was never silent)#just bc the adam and initiative arc didnt hit i dont care. this is Cozy this is a comfort season.....to Me.....#buffy brainrot tag

I'm so glad your friends are both okay. That's so horrible.
Thanks, anon. It was about a decade ago (although the incidents happened in different years), so time's marched on. They're both doing well now.
#it was actually at the same festival#i volunteered there for a year and worked there for another two#and the assaults happened in that time#it's actually part of why i left the festival#it was a bunch of artists basically descending on a regional aus town every year to create art and learn and develop#and the nature of it was that the festival wanted diverse artists to attend#particularly lgbtqi+ artists#and then did nothing to protect them once they were there#i had huge issues with it especially as at the time i was working in marketing / publicity#and felt we were marketing to audiences we would be putting in danger#it didn't help that everyone who worked at the festival was extremely young#like god#i was about 21 or 22 i think at the time and i think the festival director was only 25#and i was not very good at advocating for my own opinions although tbh i also don't think i had the vocabulary for it that i do now either#but y'know#it's given me a deeply rooted passion for artist safety#which sounds extremely uncool lol but i've worked in and out of the field ever since#a large part of my current job at the theatre company is in safe and equitable workplaces#actually right now even i'm working on a safety strategy for working with deaf actors and artists#as we're developing a new show which has a lot of them#so i've been doing a lot of training and interviewing deaf people and advocates to develop it#work's even paying for me to learn auslan which has been amazing#and like the fact that my job even exists now i think is a sign of how far we've come over the last decade#but still#probably revealing too much about my real life here right now haha

s. s ave me, meoto…
#n o t me clinging to meoto to retain my sanity bc g o o d l o r d today was the worst#today was truly a very bad; very horrible day indeeeeeeed#man. today truly was a comedic tragedy in every way possible. i’d laugh if i were anyone else tbh#first i couldn’t start my workstation bc we were out of this cleaning acid thing.#t h e n this other branch lab sent over a precise amount of [reagent] that we needed to make the cleaning acid thing#*and* what’s worse was that they also demanded like. 1/5 of the acid we mixed. like bro. make it yourself mans.#but the worst part was when i tried to use a dropper to poke this sediment out of [tube i was supposed to be cleaning]#bUT THEN HALF OF THE DROPPER MELTED BC THAT BUGGER CAN’T HANDLE HIGH TEMPERATURES AAAAAAAAAAAAAA#stupid new droppers man. the old droppers could handle 100 degrees just fine. s o now the tube is clogged with melted plastic and it’s just.#life’s *really* great sometimes yk~~~~? (ʘ‿ʘ)#and so the night shift dude who came to take over the workstation against expectations seemed kinda pissed that i hadn’t started anything#and im just there. with my intestines wriggling about like internal abdominal worms. tryin not to cry in the face of my mistake.#while he’s fumin’ away like a freakin’ chimney or sth. like. man. no one asked you to take this workstation. you came here on your own. :(#anyway i ditched him and left for my break to calm myself down only to be approached by some random terribly lost middle aged to old lady#who was looking for directions to *somewhere* but she only spoke chinese aaaaaaaa#and i can’t read maps/i don’t even live in the area of my workplace so i have no idea if the lady managed to make it safely#but. lol. the lady showed me her message screen when she asked me for directions to her destination#and by pure coincidence the person she was texting is apparently related to someone with the same first name as me#the cons and cons of having common names man. i hope the lady managed to find her friend with the same name as me though lol#anyways. pls hw im begging. pls drop the crossfade for lxl birthday tmr i n e e d more meoto to carry on—#s o b s this is what im living for now ig. meoto………..

Health and social care students don’t make fun of disabled people challenge !!!!
#I’m sick of being insulted and degraded for being autistic actually it’s not very nice#Especially when you know these people are going to be going into professionals where they will be responsible for keeping disabled people#Safe and empowering them it just feels so disgusting.#Cause I’m scared to speak up! And nobody else will. So I’m just sat here hoping that they’re not gonna bring this sort of attitude into#Their workplace in the future.#Man fuck this so much I had verbal shutdown today and I didn’t listen to my boundaries and leave the classroom as much as I know I should#have and I was lucky enough to get permission to leave early and get the quieter bus#Only for these people to make fun of the way I walk and act on the way out. Yeah thanks exactly what I needed#Same ppl who were really not it in the caring for ppl with autism and Down’s syndrome lesson ofc! Fml#The fact that these people want to be mental health/psychiatric nurses actually horrifies me tbh. I really should say something
