I just really hate sending my financal paper stuff to people I sometimes meet because then They'll Know and its not... There's nothing To Know, because my accountant says im doing fine and i have been able to feed myself and my dogs every single day since i started. But surely, in my mind, it must be going Poorly because I'm the one doing it and things that i do get done poorly. This is a fact of the universe. And now my best friends cousin whose dogs im on a first name basis with will know that. And she won't say anything (there's nothing to say) but she'll Know.
#this is also why#ive been way less anxious working alone than when i was in bigger store. at least now when i do things poorly#its going poorly for me and i dont have anyone around to know it so when something goes wrong#the customer can think maybe just had a bad day and not. you know. that this is a consistent pattern that is#at this point part of my personal identity#as a person who does things Okay At Best#like sure if i fail i'll face personally bankruptcy and life-altering debt but i wont be judged by coworkers for being shite at my job#you know?

My favourite part of writing longwinded (re: way too long) posts and character-study fics is when people tell me that I get the characters, that I understand them or wrote them in-character
Because!!! I don’t! Understand! Anybody!
I have spent my entire life being so fucking confused by human beings! I don’t understand people! I don’t understand why people do things, I don’t understand why people DON’T do things, I don’t understand these strange, inexplicable creatures, and I try, by God I try so hard to understand, to get it, to comprehend the why behind people. I spent my entire childhood watching people and talking to people and I read books with heavy emphasis on the characters and I just
Someone telling me I get characters is like, meaningful in a way they probably won’t ever even know. It’s like they’re saying “All those years you spent trying desperately to understand the human psyche were worth it.”
I just. Really appreciate it.
#the inane ramblings of a madman#this is also why#if multiple people tell me i’m wrong about something#generally i’ll delete the post#because like#if i’m wrong i’m wrong y’know#of course at certain times#people disagree with me#and i immediately pull up my internal dissertation on the character#my guy i pick these characters apart#i spend literal hours trying to comprehend fake people#because understanding fake people is a direct line to understanding real people#and this is also why i try not to read reviews on cnovels#because every other review i read#is absolutely baffling to me because most of them#question why a character is doing something they said they were going to do#‘why is character doing x’ because she said she would and explained why#literally any comment or review like this drives me up the wall on any type of media#like my guy#anakin skywalker is the least confusing character in terms of why he does things#i swear to god cinemasins if you would just watch the goddamn movie and listen to the goddamn script#anyway#thank you to everyone who sends me these comments#i am sending you a million great days and hope you have the life you always desired with as many pets as you’ve ever wanted

what is your podcast listener toxic trait
mine is fast-fowarding through anything that isn't the main story SO aggressively that i miss important announcements and the like
"it's a short series, but not really clear if they're making any more" "they literally said they weren't."
#misc#this is also why#despite listening to every single ep of night vale#i've missed the vast majority of the proverbs#i just didn't even know they were there#i hear credits and i'm like NEXT#foxtrotsicrra.txt

WHAT IS THE POINT OF A FUCKING EMOTIONAL SUPPORT DOG IF YOU LEAVE THE STUPID FUCKER HOME ALL THE GODDAMN TIME TO BARK HIS FUCKING HEAD OFF*
*this post brought to you by the little piece of shit downstairs who barks his stupid little head off all day long because his owners leave him home alone all goddamn fucking day because he’s not actually an ESA he’s a goddamn pet and this building doesn’t allow pet dogs so they paid a fucking doctor to write a fake fucking letter so they could bring this little piece of shit into the building so he could shriek his dumb little head off at 11:00 at night
#jbw behind the scenes#this is why i prefer cats#this is also why#i fucking hate dachshunds#such shitty little assholes#so obnoxious#dumb little sausages#they never shut the fuck up

>Join a union
>Hear people constantly complaining that the current union leadership is super corrupt, it's all just the same ten guys making all the decisions in secret and nobody else in the union ever gets to know what's going on
>Go to the monthly union meetings that are completely open to all 1200 union members
>The only attendees are the same ten guys every month, giving detailed reports about everything that's going on
#anyway this is why i'm the way i am about politics and people who advocate against 'participating in the system'#i am on my way to becoming one of the ten guys and frankly? it's fucking exhausting#i chatted with the union president afterwards and he got this haunted look in his eye#and was like 'i'm glad to see you getting involved but remember you can say no. you can always say no.#don't let anyone bully you into doing more than you want to. make time for yourself. YOU CAN SAY NO.'#which was good and much appreciated advice! but also. ominous

south africa was banned in the olympics in 1964, 1968, 1972, 1976, 1980, 1984, 1988 & 1992. a total of 8 times. for 28 years they didn't set foot in the olympics. you know why? apartheid. apparently the olympics disagreed with the apartheid regime in south africa. russia & belarus aren't allowed to take part in the olympics this year. you know why? because of their involvement in the war in ukraine. several countries throughout history haven't been allowed to participate in the olympics because of various reason from their involvement in war to human rights abuses. now if the olympics aren't blind to all that... why in the world are they blind to what israel has been doing to gaza for the past 10 months? why is a genocidal apartheid nation allowed to participate in the olympics when any other country in its place would've been banned?
#tbh the US should've also been banned for all their various human rights abuses throughout history#but isn't that the same issue? why do the US & israel get passes to behave this way when other countries are held to a particular standard?#olympics#2024 olympics#paris olympics#israel#palestine#keshika rambles

interaction i have with shocking regularity is when someone’s complaining abt someone they know and theyre like “ughh they’re 21 and dont have a job and refuse to learn to drive” and then they remember who they’re talking to (me. 21 cant work cant drive) and go like
#text#‘ur situation is different’ Do u know Their situation enough to say that lol#also like. be srs if u didnt know me ud think the same way abt me. Do u think this abt me subconsciously?? guessing yes#The only person who HASNT made me feel like this and has actually articulated what they meant in a way that didnt feel like a dig#at me was 💫 last night hence why its on my mind

i am a firm believer that ocs are a reflection of the self in the way that every character you create has to hold some piece of you to really feel alive. sometimes this is why all your ocs have certain traits, sometimes this is why you can track your various issues and traumas all the way from middleschool to now based on what your ocs are like. this is a feature not a bug
#this is also why im firmly ignoring that the biggest issues my current ocs have#all revolve around isolation and loneliness

the funniest meltdown ive ever had was in college when i got so overstimulated that i could Not speak, including over text. one of my friends was trying to talk me through it but i was solely using emojis because they were easier than trying to come up with words so he started using primarily emojis as well just to make things feel balanced. this was not the Most effective strategy... until. he tried to ask me "you okay?" but the way he chose to do that was by sending "👉🏼👌🏼❓" and i was so shocked by suddenly being asked if i was dtf that i was like WHAT???? WHAT DID YOU JUST SAY TO ME?????????? and thus was verbal again
#yeehaw#1k#5k#10k#posts that got cursed. blasted. im making these tag updates after... 19 hours?#also i have been told it should say speech loss bc nonverbal specifically refers to the permanent state. did not know that!#unfortunately i fear it is so far past containment that even if i edited it now it would do very little. but noted for future reference#edit 2: nvm enough ppl have come to rb it from me directly that i changed the wording a bit. hopefully this makes sense#also. in case anyone is curious. though i doubt anyone who is commenting these things will check the original tags#1) my friend did not do this on purpose in any way. it was not intended to distract me or to hit on me. im a lesbian hes a gay man. cmon now#he felt very bad about it afterwards. i thought it was hilarious but it was very embarrassed and apologetic#2) “why didn't he use 🫵🏼?” didn't exist yet. “why didn't he use 🆗?” dunno! we'd been using a lot of hand emojis. 👌🏼 is an ok sign#like it makes sense. it was just a silly mixup. also No i did not invent 👉🏼👌🏼 as a gesture meaning sex. do you live under a rock#3) nonspeaking episodes are a recurring thing in my life and have been since i was born. this is not a quirky one-time thing#it is a pervasive issue that is very frustrating to both myself and the people i am trying to communicate with. in which trying to speak is#extremely distressing and causes very genuine anguish. this post is not me making light of it it's just a funny thing that happened once#it's no different than if i post about a funny thing that happened in conjunction w a physical disability. it's just me talking abt my life#i don't mind character tags tho. those can be entertaining. i don't know what any of you are talking about#Except the ppl who have said this is pego/ryu or wang/xian. those people i understand and respect#if you use it as a writing prompt that's fine but send it to me. i want to see it#aaaand i think that's it. everyday im tempted to turn off rbs on it. it hasn't even been a week

the curse of adhd:
i will remember with absolute clarity, when the thought strikes me that i have a text to send someone, that this is the fourth time in three days i've attempted to send this specific text
i will forget, in the time it takes me to pick up my phone, that i picked it up intending to send a text
#every time#managed to actually send it today!#but also i have been reminded to post this by the fact that i just had a task to do in two different rooms just now#so i turned the light on in the room i was getting to second because my brain would go 'oh why is the light on that's weird'#and check the room and it would remind me to do the second task#in the less than five seconds between turning the light on and exiting the room#my brain went 'oh the light's on better turn that off before i leave'#and i had to manually catch myself#PLS.#adhd

this manatee looks like it’s in a skyrim loading screen
#lol good luck finding all of the photoshopped versions in the rb history. ‘manatee restored’ is still my favorite of all time#misc#I encourage anyone dyslexic to try rotating him in your mind. I can’t do that; which is why I’m asking you to.#also: a bunch of tags are surprised this isn’t ‘shopped#it’s the lighting. backlit by the sun (which is diffused through the water) but also forelit artificially#the artificial light - a flash pack or something - casts a hard shadow under the creatures arm#which normally wouldn’t be possible if backlit by the SUN; you’d see a less-hard/more-fragmented shadow above water#as light sources ‘compete’ in a sense - and since there aren’t any light sources which can outshine the literal sun#it looks a bit weird when the darkest shadow is being cast from any other origin point - which is what’s essentially happening here#I don’t know the mechanics of how light travels through water; but I know the effect is substantial even with relatively short distances#also: it’s been balanced and color corrected by the author of the photo - who made deliberate choices to bring out the full potential#so it’s not like it’s a fresh and untouched export#but the kind of ‘tacked on’ appearance of the creature is a result of the lighting conditions within the image
