“Nothing lasts forever….”
Day 2 - Spiders
#m draws#good omens#good omens 2#inktober#y’all I SWEAR I was gonna do something cute#but then I drew the chair#and I was too scared to add Aziraphale in immediately so I was going to add Crowley in the back#then I realized my perspective is wrong for what I wanted#but I did too well on the chair#so I started on a bookcase#and suddenly perspective just CLICKED#literally so sad I didn’t do this digitally so I could get exact angles#because y’all have no idea how excited I got when I realized I finally understood perspective somewhat#anyway#here’s an abandoned book shop#I also got way too tired to put in details after I got some of the basic shapes so I gave up#same with adding the desk and the clock#we’ll just pretend they were sold or Aziraphale or Crowley took them

not my most audiophilic setup but my apartment finally feels like mine 🎧🎶🏠😎
#i was starting to lose it not having my turntables set up/not being able to listen to my records so i finally just went and bought another#bookcase; might end up taking everything out and painting the insides of the cubes like i did the other one (the other one has orange cubes#so i might do dark green on this one if i end up going through all that again lol)

i really am the kind of bitch who loves reading textbooks huh
#not to be obnoxious but i totally do#i keep saying i don't have time for recreational reading but my biochem textbook? organic chem? physics? psych? chem????#i WILL get burned out eventually. i will. but rn i'm having sm fun w my full study days.#absolutely salivating to start sarah bakewell's at the existentialist cafe soon#a stack is sitting in my bookcase waiting to be read. i miss reading like i used to. i miss it sm#but i just got done w an intense study session and so. much. serotonin#i've just been studying and working out and taking walks and applying my lip balm and spritzing on a yummy perfume and vibing to music#and. as always. minding my own fucking business#studying and consuming knowledge is actually part of my self care routine. if i don't i feel like utter shit#someone talk science w me i would literally fall in love w u#p

fun guessing game you get to have with your family when you're mixed: was the shit they pulled racially motivated or not
#they brought home a job app for me for a hibachi place#i am pretty happy with doing my cleaning + art tho and i don't really want to do anything culinary or food service related#i'd rather just get more hours again cleaning :/ idk i'll think about it but i don't handle time-pressure well#cleaning is good for me because as long as i accomplish the tasks i am okay and i can do them in any order i want#anyway i have to be careful though because if i go too long without 'working enough' for their tastes they start taking furniture out of#my room lol#thankfully i finally was able to buy most of my own furniture though during my job so the only things they could take now are like#the tv bookcase and fan#i guess they could take the computer too but they gave that to me years ago so it would be kinda weird if they did#i am a grown ass man but i'm probably not gonna be free from this shit until i can finally move out#gahhh it is what it is#i'm gonna text my boss on monday and see if there's any open buildings i could take for at least another day of work#if not then i'll pick up something random i guess#but i honestly like having more time/energy to work on my art even though being home more sometimes sucks#i might try to do longer days to make up for it?#idk. lots to think about.

trying to sort our simplyplural but there's enough of us that we need to use smthn like a spreadsheet to do that. but also. how tf do we sort source categories when we have so many multifictives
#like. we want to organize all of this stuff in a table and be able to sort each column to return them in alphabetical order#that way when we want to make sure a source folder has everybody in it we just sort for that particular source#but when so many of us have multiple sources how do we. sort for that#i dont want to make multiple source columns bc that will make the sorting uneven between columns#i don't want to put all the info in the same cell bc stuff that comes later in the cell won't get sorted at all#we can't just sort sources by category too bc a lot of our multifictives are entirely sourced from the same category#like our minecraft fictives who have travelled between smps in their source memories (SAUSAGE. FUCKING SOURCES GEORG)#and don't even get me started on the various tag categories that we all sort into as well like species and magic types#so many of us are hybrid species like i think a huge majority of us are multiple species at once#the easiest way we found out to do this is. write books in minecraft and copy the books into multiple sets of bookcases#but that gets so hard to keep track of after a while#and if we miss some info in a certain book we have to go through and edit or replace every single version of the book#which. oh my god. SAUSAGE. IS SO IMPOSSIBLE. SOURCES *AND* SPECIES GEORG SIR STOP#WHY ARE YOU THE ONLY AFTERLIFE FICTIVE WHO DIDN'T SPLIT OFF INTO MULTIPLE VERSIONS OF THE SAME GUY#literally the only minecraft fictive we have with ZERO doubles. even Grain has at least one double 😭😭#oh Eth also doesn't have any doubles somehow he just simultaneously exists in all worlds at once#he doesn't even have a whole timeline of where he travelled like sausage he just Shows Up Places.#how the hell did you get to the Seaside au. most of those guys are literally post-fictives and have migrated to parative instead 😭

look at my cute studio. very pleased with the hanging zines! won’t lose any pieces now and they won’t get all marked up
#my own THGW fan art framed. god bless me#in the process of hanging all my loose art etc up!!!!#going to perhaps make an oil painting today#and definitely going to start repainting a bookcase i have!#it’s ugly tan i’m going to make it sky blue and add clouds#make the shelves primary colors#and the inside of the whole thing Yellow#i want Posca markers so bad. i think those would Tie It All Together for outlining and details#but they’re expensive and i have nooooo money#i do get a 30% disco at work BUT :/ :/#bweh

this entire trip back to texas for the wedding i have realized my dad is so autistic and that's literally the only thing wrong with him
#last night i was so stoned and he came up to me asking where my mom was and pretended to be angry at me and when i almost started crying#he laughed and said he was joking#and i was standing there paralyzed and shaking like a tiny dog#this man has absolutely no self awareness or any idea how his emotions affect others#i'm terrified of him#(he also has a huge train collection and MASSIVE comic cook collection that takes up easily four huge bookcases)#how did i not see this before

#venting:#i am now the sole person looking for a job in this house because my gf is too depressed to muster the energy for it.#which I get but its still frustrating when I have made her resume like mone thats been working#and sending her jobs that are easy to apply to#i am also the one that cleaned out our bookcase for books to sell to get some extra funds hopefully even if just a little#i feel like i cant air this shit though because shes curled up witherinf in her chair and if i start to freak out she will go into crisis#and there are some things ahe just needs to be agressive about to get fixed but wont do and she just lind of laments over it instead#which isnt going to fix anything#i am so tired and needed to vent somewhere she wont see it though

Give me opportunity for minimalism and I will kill it with clutter and color. My room was driving me crazy while it was empty, I'm so happy to have it (mostly) put back together now
#so pumped to have all my bookcases back in my room#got a new shelf/drawer combo from the antique store#probably increased hobby storage by 50%#room feels cozy and full again#need to find a sorting solution for my bits#I want to get something like the sets of drawers my uncle uses for screws and washers#let me categorize my bits again instead of having things all loosy goosy in baggies#need to finish more mini projects so I can free up space for quilting#they had a sale on fabric at the antique store#so I've officially started my quilting supply pile

Being a very unfit and moderately small person trying to build bad quality flatpack furniture is like do I take the lower back pain from trying to bend myself into bizarre positions or ask for someone else to help, bearing in mind that it will end in a lot of shouting
#I'll take the back pain but I'm starting to regret it#What is it about asking people to help build flatpack furniture that makes them so argumentative though#I just asked you to hold the wood in place so it doesn't get bent and scratched while I put this screw in four feet away#I did not ask for a panicked shouting match as if we're trying to save a beached whale#Like it's ok there are no lives at stake#You can just hold the wood without worrying loudly about what I'm doing#But my baaaaack#It's really the flatpack wood that's the problem it'll pop out of shape or snap or scratch or end up lopsided with the slightest provocation#So I have to try and put my whole body weight on one end while screwing in the other#Or get creative with stacks of books but in the most recent case I didn't have space#45 minutes my ARSE not when you're doing it alone and the diagrams aren't very clear#Just to make it clear by the way I do ENJOY building flatpack furniture; I understand the instructions and the process#What I don't enjoy is having to choose between back pain or having someone panicking during my quiet furniture building time#As it is I've had to leave the bookcase I was working on upside down overnight unfinished#And I bet the back panels are going to bow and warp because I've had to stop as it was too late to start hammering at 10 pm#Earth & Stone

Tagged by @ravenkings (😘😘) to post 9 books I'm planning to read in 2023. I am also concentrating on making some progress on my To Read pile this year, so most of these are books I've already gotten my hands on, but haven't gotten around to reading (or just haven't finished) yet.
tagging: @kecharitomene, @thelovelygods, @a-story-teller, @iskarieot, @morgainelefaey
#second year I've had essex serpent on this list lol#and I haven't made any progress on the master and margarita since I got interrupted in 2020#it's one of those books where you have to read it all in one go or you get lost and can't start back up without a lot of rereading#hopefully I can force myself to go through that this year#started book of dreams last year but didn't finish it before the year's end#and peshawar lancers has been on my bookcase for almost as long as Gloriana so I really want to get that read#tagged#ravenkings#books#reading

Slowly accepting I am worthy of aid and crying outside the food bank bc I get to have dried fruit and nuts and enough milk and things I haven't been able to afford in ages
#ive been using other free food resources but theyre very seasonal and in a different town#ive been trying to be vulnerable about how bad shit is and people have been reaching out being really loving and supportive#its almost like i am not an island that must survive alone by the skin of my teeth and hide in shame#people really care and i am not alone and the world is terrifying but people are right here loving you outside your shaking fetal position#i also found my meds that have been missing they fell BEHIND A BOOKCASE so no wonder i coildnt find them#and my body is Wrecked but we started redoing the bedroom wall so we can Have a bedroom again#and i have food from the garden saved in the freezer and food on my shelves again and wonderful people in my life#and my brain doesnt feel like its on FIRE anymore like mind numbing intense pain its starting to lessen and i feel Hope again#huge advocate of just let yourself be loved huge failure at taking my own advice but we're getting their folx i am Trying

clear files are such a good merch idea. I accidentally got some at miku expo thinking they were posters (the person manning the merch table didn't correct me lol) but now I put the documents I need for top surgery in one of them and it's giving me +1 morale
#tomorrow I need to finish building the bookcase and then I can properly start displaying my merch#i need to figure out how to display the glowstick inserts because it would be a shame not to#also I'm very glad I ended up with the clearfiles because I absolutely don't have enough space on my wall for the posters#I got so many postcards that all need to get on there somehow#most of them from the van gogh museum but also a set from the expo

Hm keep having the same...Dream? Nightmare? Anyway maybe I should take it as a warning...
#in the dream/nightmare a stranger opens the door and throws a small explosive device into the house and then runs away.#in the dream this time at least he had other people with him behind him but they still left afterwards#hm this time we needed to go drive somewhere for some reason and everything in the area we drove thru were Weird. all the people were scary#like we knew they were a threat and it was palpable#they were also dressed like somewhere between rennie and appropriated and twisted native american outfits#or vikings too but i guess thats why i thought rennie#uh and i hid my star of david. so you can get that the overall tone of the nightmare was antisemitism is a threat#since its a dream things kept changing etc#like it started totally differently jt started w me and steph waiting for a table at a small restaurant and for some reason like#we were kept waiting all the way until they closed#also at some pt i was outside and saw a kitten and it ran up to me and i picked it up#and then i was back inside the restaurant and hm somehow put the kitten down in a space where it wouldnt be able to jump out and run around#and then when dream us realized we weren't going to be seated before they closed for the day we left and walked home#and at some pt later realized id left the kitten but coulsnr go back bc they were closed and went oh i hope it becomes their shop kitten w#and then the scary parts started and it was... hm. and also the restaurant had the same thing happen to it but was damaged but magically w#we were lucky but then the thought was next time it could be much worse if xyz happened and then i pushed my mind to move on#hm but i do remember yelling in the dream that we should do x so it cant happen#and then i started thinking we should have a back door for emergencies but where woukd it go without us having to remove the radiator or tbe#bookcase but we cant do that and then i was like ooh moving bookcase that hides the door frkm the knside idk#anyway weird and disturbing scary dreams

im not booktok’s intended audience and am a hashtag hater for many reasons but jack edwards is doing something right
#to that point i think a lot of individual creators who contribute to booktok contribute in a productive way to#literature and fostering passion for it and helping the masses find the interest to improve their own#critical thinking skills but the hive mind of it all does 10x as much damage as the good#but regardless jack edwards taking his education and his love of literature and speaking booktok’s language while being critical and#uniquely funny and finding a new way to make a living off of a literature degree is compelling#very genuinely he’s an inspiration to me career wise#and i want his bookcase sososososo bad not only the shelves themselves but his collection as well#forgot he existed for awhile but we’re so back#which is to say in an unforeseen incident i finished reading all the books i had set aside for winter break and winter break has not even#started yet so i am looking for recommendations and i trust his
