Inktober Day 27: "Road"
Despite the amazing beauty of the park, both Tucker and the little guy were enamoured with the old Studebaker marking Route 66. Sam was a little disappointed in them, but she had to admit - a rusted, old car, placed alone in the middle of the colorful Arizona shrubland, did have a certain aesthetic charm.

December 20, 1880 — A stretch of Broadway between Union Square and Madison Square was illuminated tonight by Brush arc lamps, making it among the first electrically lighted streets in the United States.
“What’s more New York than the Great White Way, which is Broadway. Broadway without being ablaze with light would not be Broadway.”
— Writer Sarah Henry

My senpai and I are very different people lmao she just suggested we take the 100¥ bus to save us less than 15 minutes walking and I'm like GIRL I am NOT paying ANY amount of money if I can reasonably walk there
#chough chatterings#like i have walked 1 hour each way to a classroom before to save myself ¥300#my colleagues are always like how do you afford to go travelling and i'm like. i just don't pay for things unless i absolutely have to#my company covers commuting costs but i don't have to actually prove i took the bus/train so i get an extra 〜3000¥/mo by walking#also my colleagues eat like bento or some nice rounded meal before work#whereas i - a goblin - will just eat an entire 80¥ bag of white bread i raided from the discount bin#i don't have any subscriptions like spotify or netflix. i rarely eat out. i don't drink alcohol. i only buy meat or fruit if it's discounte#and then when i do travel i stay in shitty 1-star hotels/hostels and eat like 4 bowls of rice from the included breakfast buffet#so then i don't have to eat lunch. and then i find cheap restaurants off the high street for dinner (i never go to the touristy areas)#but yeah now i have to find a polite way to tell senpai i'll meet her there bc i'm too much of a cheapskate to take the bus lmao

not to brag but i went to prague, czechia and didnt get lured into some locked museum like in tmagp
to be fair i was with my family members and we also didnt see the sex museum because mom would never have let us go inside but i still count pur triå as a win. gorgeous city.
#tmagp#the magnus protocol#connected to tmagp#also we are way too touristy to head down weird pathways

the autistic urge to collect small hard objects
#i always wanted to collect buttons but never really got into it#i do however collect animal figurines. mostly those little rock ones you get at touristy shops but i have a couple more unique ones too#my favorite is a spotted owl made from ash from the mt. st. helens eruption#autism tag

there's something so fun about how i'm a uni student and i study history and whenever we go on any kind of trip we all turn into like. primary school children <3 like we had a trip to a museum today and we were all so excited! and we stopped into both the giftshops and bought silly giftshop junk and we talked to one of the actors who has to pretend to be a character from history and we played all the games on the video screens and we did the scavenger hunt activity that's supposed to be for little kids and we were all just so excited!!! and it was so fun. which is why you need to let fun and whimsy into your life because everything is just better and happier!
#adults should be allowed to just do fun 'childish' stuff without ridicule#because like if nobody on my course had been matching the energy my day would have sucked!#but we were all having such a fun time just being silly and touristy and childish#and it was wonderful#i love my degree so much sometimes#my course is such a good group of people too <3#you just need whimsy in your life#whimsy

thinkin about going on the train to aviemore or something, hiking in craigellachie nature reserve. thatd be cool i think
#i lov the cairngorms#and the trossachs too of course#need to do more planning obviously but its cool to know i could do it and my railcard means its not so bad :-o yayy#thought abt going to pitlochry for a moment but thats a wedding venue type place its not v fun#jus pass through it and then go further into th cairngorms lol#passed through it on the way back from kirkmichael last year and went down th hills on th way down into it and it made our ears pop#it was cool driving above the clouds that were hanging above pitlochry though. .v cool. too many underprepared caravans trying to drive#on that road though.. in a touristy way. which is not great for us and them because that is not a suitable vehicle lol#kiddo say

I think about that quote about indigenous people living in a post apocalyptic world everyday here, why are there no natives here, why does this town think its still in europe, why is there a land acknowledgment before the list of original settlers that make it seem like we're extinct, why am i the only indigenous person here and the only reason im here is because im working??? why am i the only indigenous person here and the only reason i am here is because i am working.
#like everyone says this is the best base and like yeah the beach is cool and all (if we arent busy) but im noticing a lack of indigenous ppl#thank fuck for the room having access to aptn for making me feel normal again#but like rn we're able to be in town since nothings happening atm and its scary how all the people living here are white people so strongly#proud of their families coming here from europe and have european flags up and all the names of the streets and the souvineirs and none of#the people here know we were here first.#like this town THINKS its still in europe and acts like it and ive only seen one other indigenous person but theyre just here for a day trip#but hearing that auntie laugh made me feel less scared fr#everyone hates on the other bases but tbh i think its just cause those towns are wayyy more native (thank fuck) and theyre haters#anyway still getting used to being the only indigenous person here esp cause they all hate indigenous people 👍#tjis is a VERRYYYYY touristy town too and since working as an indigenous tour guide tourists fuckinh annoy me

working on my Sunday In New York (1963) playlist and while I have issues with that movie I do also have great affection for it and this is shaping up to be a real good playlist
#my playlists#the idea of 'sensibilities' has been on my mind a lot lately#and it's an important thing in these playlists#and one of the reason i think a lot of the sorta fandom playlists#with like taylor swift on every movie#just doesn't work#like not just style of music#but there's a sensibility to all of these movies#and i really try to capture that when i make a playlist#and for stuff set in NYC it's real fun to reflect that too#in my#adam's rib 1949 playlist#i use a lot of broadway from the era#bc like these were rich new yorkers#they probably saw kiss me kate and the other big shows of that year#in Sunday In New York the city itself is more of a character#like they go rowing in the park#we take a bus#ice skating at Rockefeller center#it's much more new yorky - or at least touristy new yorky#so the playlist gets to be too!

going to uni I thought living in a city would be chill but I miss nature, what I wouldn't give to go chill in a forest somewhere but instead I live next to a highway
#it's not even that big of a city but its enough suburbia that its like an effort to go somewhere without any buildings for a few kms#there is like a river gorge nature reserve place but its hard to get too and touristy#i dont wanna go to a government run park i want to walk down a little path and be in a forest with no fucking people#growing up in farming areas as impacted me more than expected

Happy TDOV folks, can't believe we made it to another one. I'll be four years on E in august, which at this point is becoming less of a miracle day by day. The changes it brought to my life remain a blessing.
I implore all of you, be trans as loud as you possibly can, be so unignorably trans that the columns of gender come crashing down like so much dust. I love that we're here, I love that we made it, I love all of you.
(the "trans dog" shirt I'm wearing I bought from @eliasericson but I don't know if it's still in production.)
#tdov 2023#tdov#trans day of visibility#can you tell I'm a bit tired in these?#the first one is from a month ago having hallgrimskirkja in the background is a bit touristy but I promise I live here#I feel a bit odd about the text I wrote feels too much like I'm talking to an audience#I've just been reading a compilation of vonnegut's speeches it happens#ok to rb

So I just applied for a position at a school that, if their website isn't lying, is pretty much what I'd look for in an ideal school. Lots of focus on social-emotional learning, mindfulness, inquiry-based learning, outdoor learning experiences, etc.
*whispers* interview me, interview me, interview me.
#It's in a touristy beach location too#Ideal#But the only thing is I'm ONLY interested in Kinder/PreK#Let's hope they have that coming available#Teaching stuff#TIP speaks
