ya boi almost just got kidnapped 😎😎

#i was walking my dog with my brother and having a lovely old heart to heart about his SECRET GIRLFRIEND (???!!??!?!?!!!)#and we were walking down the road the rinds parallel to the beach which is blocked to the public by a bunch of cones #and a car pulls up and stops directly facing at us like 100 feet away #headlights full in our faces #so we like stop and squint and i waved and we turned the fuck around #and my brother turns around and was like oh they’re moving the cones #so we walk faster #and then they start DRIVING TOWARDS US #so we fucking book it and they catch up obviously because they’re in a car and we’re two high schoolers and a dog #and they STOPPED right behind us and got out #we barely made it to the path off the road which like has a blind turn so we just went through our neighbor’s side yard and ran home #‘twas fucking Terrifying

small shinedown inspired doodle <3

#tf2 #team fortress 2 #tf2 engineer #i mean hes kinda right #we evolve really slow in biological way so its much faster to just replace some of your body parts with undying mechanical ones #and then replace even more so you can one day become a walking theseus paradox #but a ROBOTIC ONE

A video showing Rory ranging very appropriately to find a blindly planted quail. Really pleased with her pace and distance here!

#dogblr #rory borealis #bird dog training #this is a gorgeous video thank you miles!!!#unfortunately she got a full head of steam and got much much faster and much much further as we progressed #she is going to be a great bird dog but she is also going to give me a heart attack #im gonna try some strategies to reign her in without ruining her enthusiasm so wish me luck #blind planting btw just means yeeting without looking where it goes #so none of us really know where they are in the field so no one can really help her find them #i just walk in a semi straight line through the field and trust her to play the game properly #(she does she loves this game very much).

Hero of drivers license

#I’m playing spirit tracks for the first time and I’m not going to apologize for the person I become while I’m obsessed with it #it will happen again. also makes me think they will make link a 12 year old who drives a train instead of saying he’s aged up #i guess it would fuck it with ppl because wind is also 12. but i love the idea of a 12 year old with a drivers license so whatever lmao #If this link comes right after wind it makes me think about how link would have some sort of resemblance to his previous incarnations #like. we can safely assume tetra is spirit tracks Zelda’s grandma because spirit tracks is 100 years after wind wakes #so I’d like to think Zelda has some of wind and tetras genes. but link can look like whatever since I’ve always thought of it as his soul #changing bodies and then zelda is like always royal blood because they’re descended from hylia #this would probably be better explained if I drew out how I see ww link and st link #ALSO I LOVE HOW U CAN PLAY AS ZELDA AND TALK TO HER.. she is so sweet u guys #apparently if u whip her when she’s a phantom it makes her walk faster but. i don’t want to hit her :(#my art #myart #doodles #legend of Zelda #loz #loz spirit tracks #spirit tracks #loz st #hero of trains #loz link

Not gonna lie, both vindicating but also deeply sad that every single literary magazine I've looked at recently, having visited those site in the past, has edited their submission requirements to specify that AI work will not be considered.

And at the same time, I'm extremely fearful of how many writers are going to give up writing when it becomes impossible to tell AI from real anymore, and markets are utterly saturated with content to the point that getting anything published is nearly impossible as scammers try to make some quick change.

I imagine it wouldn't be worth it in the long run as a scam, because it doesn't exactly pay to write these days even prior to this, so it may then die out within a couple of years, though that might be optimistic given the plagiarism that makes it into the Amazon self-publishing realm. But even still, I do worry that in the meantime it's going to push writers out and force already struggling lit mags to shut down, and I'm so, so worried about it.

#I have not been submitting anywhere for a few months cuz mental health hit me weird #but I've been going back to look now and it changed SO suddenly with the release of chatgpt #I hate it I hate it I hate it I hate it I hate it I hate it—#like I REALLY do spend a lot of time thinking about this kind of thing. straight up where does art go from here.#like that question was bad ENOUGH before this but now #also this also applies to book publishing but I mention lit mags especially because they're actually a VERY low entry point #and also—and perhaps more importantly—this will only further cement the monopolization of the publishing industry.#which will then mean that any moves toward diversity will be instantly walked back #because you don't have to worry about the backlash queer authors get for writing anything besides fluff gay romance.#you don't have to worry about controversy about your writers of color being harassed on twitter.#you can outsource your content to a false faceless entity who doesn't need to be paid and create whatever you so desire.#I know it's been said constantly but we grow ever closer to the most sanitized and pacifist destruction of culture and story possible.#that sounds dramatic but it's legit the cliff in the distance and the car is hurtling toward it faster than you'd think.

i did a thing

#crocheting #it was a really shitty day and i don't want to talk about it. i just need to yap #i will probably unknowingly say some borderline deranged traumatizing things further but idk its just the way i am #my existence itself is a major trigger warning so be aware #the only highlight of the day was the (i suppose) wlw couple i saw at the subway while pulling out shit like burdock out of my dress #i won't elaborate on the last piece can i be a little mysterious and less pathetic #so the wlw couple. one girl hugged the arm of the other girl and put the head on her shoulder. i saw that and was like “damn”#if you have a person you can willingly do things like that with you should know i would kill god just to be in your shoes #please cherish it #i didnt really look at them that much but then we got off on the same station and somehow they managed to overtook me #they were right ahead of me still all over each other and then it has striked me #that the girl hugging the arm of the other one was actually disabled and she needed help to walk properly #actually they were faster than me because my legs today are a total mess lol it hurts like hell just to make a step #but this is obviously just a temporary inconvenience and its nowhere near the problem that girl has #i don't compare myself to her in this regard but ive found this parallel kinda poetic #like how i as a relatively healthy individual with no major health issues was envious as fuck of those two #how i was walking in 0.25x with a shit ton of thoughts in my head while she was limping happily with a girl in her hand and smiling #no pity just envy and pure admiration. i want what they have #but im not sure if I deserve it. or actually need it #if i actually had something like that in my hands i don't know whether or not i would crush it into pieces #and then cry over it to the day i die. do you get it. am i too dramatic or too shallow as a person #originally i planned to talk about another thing entirely but this day has crushed my head and heart like a hammer #and now its turned to mush #no i guess it was a mush since long ago. then lets say this day was just crap. or life itself #nothing really happened to me but it reminded me of how helpless i am as a person vs the world and i hate being helpless #maybe ill tell you the story of how i lost the sensation in my fingertips another time when im not that traumatised by life events #(i lost it by saving a damsel in distress after walking out of the night bar a year ago. its a clickbait)

me and the work girlies having socialist convos at the end of the day

#funny as hell like. we finished our workload about half an hour early #because they've hired so many of us temps. who are improving at the job each day #that there's just been less to spread around #yet bc work culture is dumb our manager suddenly told everyone to push the carts we'd already sorted #into a square in the middle of the floor? which we've never done before #and the permanent staff had no idea why either. they were also confused but resigned #I passed one and said ''hey so is this just because we have 20 minutes of the shift left''#and she just laughed and shrugged and was like idk ask him lmaooo #definition of busywork #so we're all just standing around for 10 minutes until the manager starts calling people over to move... other stuff idk.#and I'm walking to join them when this small group of coworkers behind me goes HEY #you don't need to go. look he's got enough people and he's not looking stay heeere #so we just end up swapping stories about the managers giving us tips to process the conveyer faster #even tho we uhhh work SO hard already. :)#and one woman went ''I was thinking. ummm. I could go faster. but you gonna pay me more??? so I worked slower ❤️''#nothing but respect for us grunts here tho vs the management. I've never known a single person in the 3 weeks I've been here #to not come and help someone who looks busy on the opposite conveyer when theirs is slow #turns out people are naturally nice and helpful when you don't take advantage and try and make them work harder #bosses will never learn this <3

Look, I understand the ever-present fear that you're not good enough or that you haven't done enough with your time, but can we PLEASE not feel discouraged when seeing amazing work made by young people? Can we please stop seeing art in general and thinking "I'll never make something that good"? Beyond even art, whatever it is- looking at something and saying "I'll never be that good"? I decided I wanted to do art because because I was inspired by media I love- and I want to make things that do that for others- that drives them to pick up a pencil and start sketching OCs or writing a story that brings them joy and makes them feel proud of themselves. If someone genuinely felt bad seeing my work because "I'll never make something as good as that," I'd be DEVASTATED. That is the OPPOSITE OF WHAT I WANT. Please! Go, Make Something! Join in this thing I love! I want you to love it too! I want you to make things you love! Make characters you love! Make stories you love! Join in the joy of creation! Because it's fun! It's wonderful! It's expressive! And what you make, no one else will! It is yours! Love yourself! Love your work! Make things you love! Tell the stories you want to hear! Because if it's something you want, others will want it too.

#art #rant #Apologies if this is a weird one #I genuinely love it when I see drawings from my friends who don't usually draw #I want them to do it more #I want them to write more #I want to see them doing crafts and coding #When someone says I inspired them to do something- well #I don't think there are many higher compliments #It's never too late to start #and if you keep at it #you'll keep improving #Don't lose sight of that #Don't run yourself into the ground chasing “better”#don't stand at the starting line because the finish seems so far away #and don't sit on the sidelines because the people around you are faster #This isn't a race #It's more like a hike #A road we can walk together #Some people like different paths #Some like to run up the mountain #Others like to examine the flora along the path #But we walk it together

aughhhh i feel sosick i hate having a body i wish i was a robot and there was a butch mechanic who had to do maintenance on me who said that last part

#alex talks #i should covid test and i'll check if we have any that aren't expired but i feel so ill that i don't want to walk to cvs #my head hurts i think we have a liquid iv downstairs that could hydrate me faster but i dont want to get up. at least i can still moan loud #and piteously from my bed that makes me feel better #it makes me feel like im a malady afflicted little boy from a village in the 1800s and they've gotten the town doctor to do a house call and #he observes me and my miserable pallor and deduces i am dying from the wasting

alright i’m done sorry

#but like #teasing both sam AND danny by flirting with some rando at the bar #when you get back to the table sam is HEATED #questioning what you were doing in that same tone he used in that tiktok #they’re dragging you out of the bar faster than you can think #sam is still digging into you when you walk through the door #but danny ever the sweetheart stops him #he knows you only did it for the attention #so he leans in real close and he uses that condescending little voice #‘sweet girl was just upset we weren’t giving her what she wanted right’#‘she wants us at her beck and call. ready to please her whenever she likes isn’t that right’

Just posting this so I can find it again

#dogblr #for reference #rory is stuck at a default pace #and i want her at a default trot #im exploring strategies to get her there #(default while on leash - default offleash is a canter)#(but we do 4x more onleash stuff so you see my problem)#(ive been conditioning her to pace despite my absolute best efforts)#its crazy because mav had a beautiful default trot and pike has a beautifuk default trot #i didnt even try eith mav it just happened #but mr laundry and the tollers all default pace and i hate it #its such an inefficient lumbering movement #i do not want it for rory #anyway new strategies include even longer leash and me walking even faster #and if all else fails ill fix it in the summer when the snow and ice melt

GOD my heart aches every time I see the black Dartmoor

#it looks so much like my heart horse that never was (except the Dartmoor is missing a little white marking he had)#he was at the barn where a family member had their horse. a little too poorly cared for... he refused to be rideable (past abuse probably)#and they just didnt bother with him much. he was so so so pretty but his mane was always tangled and hooves out of form and stuff #whenever I came along I'd spend the whole time there just caring for him. brushing out the tangles. braiding his mane. oiling his hooves.#(just braiding the mane could take 20-30 minutes. it was so long and beautiful)#i brought him along for hacks in a halter and lead rope whenever i could. the lazy fuck (affectionate) REFUSED to go faster than a walk #but I am also a lazy fuck so it fit me pretty well tbh #in the beginning he was really tentative towards me and the stable owner had to help me go get him. but eventually he started coming to me #wasn't much of a cuddly type but you know in your heart when a horse enjoys your company don't you #my life got in the way too much because I was in high school commuting 90 minutes one way #but. sigh. what we could've had if I wasn't so freaking busy all the time :(#I'm not even sure he's alive anymore. I think it's been four years since my family member moved their horse and his fur was graying then #wasn't a dartmoor though #papers claimed him as a dole horse but his papers were untrustworthy loll. he looked more like a fell or maybe dales pony #z talks

had a nightmare where my dad and i were stalked by the ghost of a serial killer called "bonny john" aubrey

#did we die? not sure. debatable.#i'm like dad all the locals are saying that bonny john's coming out tonight. we should leave #and he's like ok [does everything so it takes the longest time possible]#all the lights on the street we're walking on go out at once. he sees no reason to get to the van any faster #the van starts by itself before we even get there. he's like welp hop in #nope we're going to this house to try and ask for help. the van starts making unnatural sounds when we cross the street.#there's definitely a figure back there. i think it has a chef's knife.#nobody's answering the door. we go around to the back yard just to put more distance between us #and suddenly the brightest lights are shining out the back windows. there's a man standing at the corner of the house.#someone is screaming. or roaring. the windows shatter. there's a paper-white face in front of me.#the only thing i remember after that is watching a cat jump out of a broken window and run off into the night #so yeah i probably died but idk #bonny john also had his own folk song. i heard it on a record player in an old thrift store where somebody told me to watch out for him #i can't remember the tune or anything but it was a good song #cornelis appears nonetheless!

absolutely wild to me that i will see the takes “mass effect andromeda is just a rewrite of me1″ and “mass effect andromeda just isnt a mass effect game” side by side do you not hear yourselves

#its n7 day i get to talk about mass effect all i want #i see the 'mea isnt a bad game its just a bad mass effect game' take so often #but like!! what does that even mean!! no one ever explains what they think qualifies as a mass effect game #i agree that elements of mea are similar to me1 #but i dont necessarily think thats a bad thing?#it gives people something familiar to attach to when theyre surrounded by a new cast and galaxy they have to get to know #andromeda definitely qualifies as a mass effect game #and i especially respect it for trying to go back to the original roots of mass effect which was supposed to focus on exploration #does andromeda have faults? absolutely. disappointing is the best word i can use to describe iy #but my disappointment mainly comes from being able to see What they wanted to accomplish with mea and how they really fumbled it #due mainly to poor management #which is the saddest part #theres a lot of good ideas there!! especially with what you learn in the last like 5% of the game lol #people will compare mea to the entire completed me trilogy when thats not fair and should Only be compared to me1 #in terms of its story and characters at least. and i think the mea cast developed much more by the end of the game than the og crew did in 1 #like we all remember liara being a weird fangirl and tali being a walking dictionary #mea combat is the me series at its best even if youre one of the people who Hates that you cant control squadmates #having mapped powers makes the combat sooo much faster and more fluid and theres no way to have that while keeping the power wheel #i was sad about the loss of it too but your squadmates are pretty good at comboing your moves it just takes getting used to #also people who say the pacing is bad when they follow one mission across multiple planets when youre just supposed to focus on one location #like i said mea disappoints me but its still rated a 7/10 like thats not a bad score by any means?? i agree a 7 is fair #anything below a 5 is dubious but people think if a game is anything less than a 10 then its a failure #really the biggest hurdle to get over is the fact its a new cast in a new galaxy with a pc that is young and inexperienced #just such a shame that it got dogpiled and memed so hard that we'll probably never get a direct sequel it deserved a 2nd chance #mass effect andromeda get behind me #rant over andromeda deserved better #it speaks #ALSO the 2 player characters were twins thats GOLD and was underutilized i just want the ryders back
