That part of the year again when I think about shaving my hair…
#idk I miss the confidence#like yeah it looks good this length but also I look like a girl no matter what I do#idk if it’s worth it if I’m not gonna go on T for at least another few years yknow?#it’s just hair so it’ll grow out again. and this time ik what the process is like#also it would be fun for the summer#just walking around looking like a hot butch#I’ll think about it some more#maybe even trim my hair now and see how I feel#if I shave it I’m gonna wait until after exams I think tho#or wait until I finish school#hmh#txt

One thing that caught me off guard about guardian was how thirsty zyl was, like for 90% of volume 1 he was a thirsty little flower begging for just 1 chance with sw 😭
#my art#scribbles#guardian#zhen hun#weilan#zhao yunlan#shen wei#镇魂 guardian#镇魂#I have. some other doodles in my head#I’m so tempted to just read the rest of it in Chinese I can’t wait until august#but I just know my brain is gonna overheat if I try…..#very upsetting how 10 yrs of Chinese school did not make me 100% literate#to this day idk how tf I finished mdzs in Chinese I was on sum shit back in 2018 LOL

I made a fren.
#was making this for some friends who are expecting#then I realised that the relatives we might be seeing today#haven't received a gift for their kids since the baby shower for the first#so I finished this quickly#my friends can wait#I'm not planning on having their gift until January anyhow#I can have fun confusing the mom who's been asking about my progress at school pickup though#she saw me working on socks and was shocked that I'd finished the pepper#I'll bring the new one in and she'll notice that there's less#knitting#amigurumi

I’ve got some friends and my betrothed doing a little book club. It started with one friend and we’d leave a comment in discord with the percent we were at and then our thought under a spoiler. When we read that far we’d go back to read the spoiler and respond. Then their hubby wanted an excuse to read more, and my betrothed heard about it and wanted in.
At which point I slid forward The Scholomance series, which I’d been pressuring my betrothed into starting and so everyone took it up. It’s been like crack. I have always loved this series and my betrothed was like, “This sounds like a horrifying depressing setting why do you like it?”
But now they’re all voraciously consuming it and I’m living my absolute best life. I try not to comment much as I don’t want to color their perception but these books are so fucking good and now I get to share thoughts with several other people who are having a wonderful time.
#ramblies#the scholomance#a deadly education#the last graduate#I’m pacing my rereads to their percentages#but I’m a really fast and voracious reader so I’m finishing several books at once and trying to put off my reread until my betrothed hits#about the 20% mark#everyone’s around 1/2 to 3/4 of the way through the second book so I can read my library books while I wait#every reread I get more out of these books and I don’t generally give recommendations on a broad level cause I like to tailor them#but I feel like most people would enjoy these#if you want a better more realistic magic boarding school that is about hope and cooperation#these are good

Actually, on the topic of the baby fever. God it's so frustrating. Bc when I was like 14 ish I was Adamant that I never ever wanted kids. And my dad said smth around the lines of "that'll likely change" (probably from his own experience with this) and I was like NO. it WONT.
And then eventually, age 21-22 ish, I admitted that Okay, I still don't want to have my own kids, but someday maybe I'll adopt...
And Now, 27 years old, I got the general baby fever on occasion. It Did fucking change. And I don't know if I actually WILL bother with having my own kid (I still don't want to go through the hassle and massive body changes). But god. I do see a fucking baby and feel that stab of longing. It's almost like my damned hormones betrayed me or smth. Maddening!
I shall simply write fanfic about it.
#speculation nation#pregnancy ment/#honestly though i hadnt felt the wish to have my own until after my dad died#and i realized just how small our family is getting. and just felt this stab of NEED. to continue the line. continue the family.#my family's fucking dying around me i need to add to it. need more family. yknow?#so i dont actually know if this is. because of hormones or because of grief or What#but it was enough for me to put the hysterectomy idea on hold. bc id been genuinely considering it back in like. april? or so.#but then this happened and now im like. fuck dude. i dont know. but the uncertainty's enough to keep me from doing it.#yeah i dont wanna deal with periods anymore. but also. i need more time to decide.#i think no matter what i do want to raise kids someday. once im more stable (financially and emotionally)#but whether thats adoption or putting myself thru fuckin body torture. well i'll just have to decide. later.#maybe the deciding factor will be my own body aging lol. if i wait too long. my body will decide for me. who knows!#i Have thought about what id do if i got accidentally pregnant. especially relevant back when i was sleeping with a trans woman#and used to be id abort no hesitation. but well. i mean abortions illegal here anyways rn so id have to go to another state#but if i decided it i could make it work. it's not That far of a trip.#but. when i thought about it. the concern was less about the theoretical baby. and more about finishing school.#thinking 'man itd be fucking awful to finish school if i got pregnant right now'. but not. hesitating over the baby.#if i was out of school and relatively stable and i got accidentally pregnant. then. well. Maybe.#so me doing my dad vash au where he gets accidentally pregnant and goes all in with it#thats me. sorting out my feelings on it i guess. putting them somewhere.#idk. it's a lot to think about. i dont want to condemn a child to my genetic problems. but at the same time...#i dont know. To Be Decided Later.

#i lost one of my grants for school because my mom got married and now we have to report her husbands income#despite the fact that he doesn’t even pay bills and every time we’ve ever gone out to eat he’s never paid#so i might not be able to live at school this year and i might have to live at home and commute all because she got married to a deadbeat#that they think is giving me money and contributing to our household when he’s not#he’s never even gotten me a birthday or christmas gift lmfao he’s not giving me tuition money or money for rent lmfao#anyways i’m getting in to bed i can’t do this rn#edit: and the worst part is i told her this would happen and that she should wait to get married until after i finished school#which i know isn’t reasonable and it’s very selfish but .. at least i was right#i hope i die btw

Got my new record cabinet set up just in time for my favorite band, St. Lucia's new album to arrive! Grandpa made this new smaller cabinet for Christmas, to go with the one he made for my birthday a few years ago. Dad made a top for it so I could also use it as a table. I stained it and added the legs. Now to fill it up!
#it took so long to finish cause i made the stain#dad forgot to add the hydrogen peroxide to the mix so i was waiting for the steel wool to rust for weeks not realizing it wouldnt#anyway steel wool vinegar and hydrogen preoxide makes a really nice stain!#or if you want a grey wash just leave out the peroxide#learned that in art school#grandpa made a mistake when building it but i think i made the most of it by having dad make the top#ill just use that part for other things until i have enough records to fill it#and then ill just put less listened to things there so im not constantly having to move the top on and off

tbh that last ask reminded me...
#i finished arcane's new season not last night but the night before#and i don't really do “fandom” shit#but yesterday i was just watching some videos and looking at art and stuff#and i was kinda surprised that people interpreted jayce and viktor as being gay?#i personally always interpreted them as just being friends?#just reminds me that men cannot show any kind of intimacy or affection without being presumed gay#and i'm not saying jayce and viktor aren't gay -- i have no idea what the canon says#i'm just speaking more generally#i just remember moments in my life when i wanted to show affection to my bros#and i didn't or i had to wait until no one was around#because i knew we'd be called gay and like i don't give a shit but i wouldn't want to put my friend in that position#like in high school on the football team#one time my qb wasn't playing his best and we lost a big game and he felt a lot of guilt#the whole team tried to comfort him -- placed their hands on his shoulders#told him it was okay#but once everyone was out of the locker room i approached him#because i was a lineman right? he's my boy. i protect him every day.#and he was just one of my best friends at the time#and like i knelt beside him and put my forehead to his#told him reassuring shit and that i love him and everything#and i just know for a fact that if any of these tumblr girls saw that shit they'd assume we were gay#and it's lowkey annoying as fuck#lmao#like bros go off to war and die for their friends all the time#bros have been doing that since the dawn of history#it doesn't necessarily imply romantic/sexual feelings#you can have strong passionate love for people of the same sex without it being romantic/sexual

Years ago, I asked you what the different alternate universe Maria’s were doing with their lives. Are the answers still the same?
OOOOOOF yes.
but now I’m in the period where I have to face that I do not, in fact, have multiple lives so I have to figure out what I’m doing with my one wild and precious life and the sort of (for me, at least) ease of following a particular school-related completion course that wasn’t too hard to commit to or finish has come to an end and I am at a crossroads where it’s just like—you could choose. And on some level, in the next few years, you need to. Low-key terrifying and I hate it.
#like. when I started college it was like. okay well now finish it and then I did. and then it was like well you need training for a job#so I did my two year master program in teaching and then I just did that.#and then it was like ‘get job’ and then increasingly ‘adjust to job’ and I did both of those things#but all of those were in the grand scheme of things easy choices#because they also came with clear opportunities that felt like signs#I got the job right after I finished the program! I got into college and was offered a (small) scholarship#even the transition from college to grad school felt easy. I didn’t even know for sure that I wanted to be a teacher#but it was a sensible gamble and it was the same college and I got offered a writing job at the same time that gave me work experience#and it all just fell into place#and even the first four years of teaching where I had to sort of actively battle to get better and adjust to it all#have just run out! The road of easy choices have run out. And I for one hate that so much#and on some level I am content to wait for whatever the next easy choice is. To wait until the signs align again#but tbh I don’t think I am being allowed to do that again#This is just. Different#anyway this is a lot thank you for asking Stacy aksksjjehe

I cant wait#Im also gonna get waxed again that day. third time babyyyyy#im gonna try to get back on that writing & tumblr groove soon#probably when i go back to school in august#pray i am able to power through and finish these fics soon. peace and love bless

Congratulations on graduating! That must be an amazing feeling.
thank youuuu <3
technically i won't be graduating until the end of the year because i finished past the cut off date for my uni's mid-year graduation ceremonies, but i'm happy to have finished regardless.
it's been a really difficult and long process, and i had to delay finishing my degree by 2 years due to a long string of Life Events (Not Fun) that got in the way of me completing the last 2 courses i had left in my degree as of mid-2022, so i'm glad i finally managed to get to the end of a semester without some random bullshit stopping me for the first time in several years lmao.
i dropped out of high school after i got sick, and i thought i was gonna have to drop out of uni too, despite all the work i've put in to pull my life together. it really means a lot to me that i managed to make it through to the end this time, even though it was tough to keep my head above water sometimes.
#ask#thegrinninggametile#it feels nice to actually finish something for once#i've never really done it before#i dunno#it feels like i'm bragging and i hate talking about accomplishing anything because it feels really selfish and egotistical#but i'm really proud of myself#i know it's not impressive and most of the people i grew up with graduated years ago but still#i proved to myself that i CAN see smth like this through to the end even when it gets really tough yknow?#only vaguely related but i refuse to call myself a 'graduand' until december and act like i haven't already completed the degree#despite my encyclopedic knowledge of my uni's policy and procedure library#if they want to make me wait over 6 months after i finish before actually giving me my testamur and saying i've graduated#then i'm saying i've graduated anyway#i've got all the pieces of paper that say i'm done besides the actual testamur#so policy and procedure definitions dictionary articles 14/232PL and 14/233PL can huff my shorts :P#(i used to work at my university and part of my job was basically committing the policy and procedure library to memory)#(so i could teach other students how to navigate the school's systems and how things work)#(and also to hold members of staff/departments accountable for failing to follow university policy when interacting with disabled students)#(i really enjoyed that job sometimes)#(plus i'm just autistic and liked learning about how all the systems of a large university are developed and interface with each other)#sweet.txt

In the beginning of the month I started to post my PonyxMuffy fancomic on The Duck Webcomics, after discovering that I can still access my old account, and I got featured~! They even wrote a little blurb about it!
It's always fun to see people describe my art hehe
#you can ignore this post- i just made it since i'm happy to see this haha#i still call this website drunk duck in my head since that's when i joined and was super active on it#i recently remembered some webcomics from it and decided to see what became of them#one actually finished (simply sarah) so i have new reading for me in the new year#and i'll probably check out the other webcomics that are currently popular on it at the same time as well#since the site still gives off old-school webcomic site vibes which i love#it all has to wait until the new year though since i'm a supermarket worker by day and the holidays are a busy time of the year in my job#somebody's gotta stock all the selves that the customer empty after all (+ i need to fullfill many e-shop orders)#busy times busy times
