#unfortunately that requires money

Left my sibling at 5 and drove for 11.5 hours home. Which is an odd experience because. I’m exhausted. My head hurts and my eyes are tired. But I like it so much. I wish I didn’t come home. I wish I’d detoured and seen the coast. Or crater lake. Three 11.6 hour days in a row. With greasy diner meals. Listening to my shows and music. Thinking my thoughts. Telling myself stories.
#unfortunately that requires money#sometimes I wish I had a passenger princess but I think it would require a special someone who is okay sitting for 6 hours at a time.#only gases the car up once. she’s from 2002#that’s pretty damn good mpg 💪#I’m sad to be home#I think my family is very happy I’m back. but it’s stifling.#and I have to deal with things now#have to deal with my cat#have to deal with two friends who I don’t think I want more than anything but friends.#It feels evil but I nearly asked my family#to take my cat in for me while I was gone. I don’t know how I’ll handle this.

god i need to start doing youtube or something so that if a post blows up i can get money instead of what i get on twitter which is inconvenienced
#twitter has their stupid ad shit now but you have to be subscribed to elons cuck farm#not that i wouldn't enjoy making money off getting people arguing with me in the comments#but not even that is enough to make me subscribe to elons swamp of shitfuckery. never.#rookposting#unfortunately platforms that could theoretically be 'profitable' require you to 'create' 'content'#instead of just experiencing a thought and immediately throwing it out the window for peer review like this place

having another one of my job-related crises
#where are the jobs for blokes that do fuck all. where are they!!!!!!!#i am quite literally looking for jobs where you do nothing. you do not understand how much i dont want to do anything#granted my current job has a certain amount of doing nothing in that i have the time to look for jobs where i do nothing#but i want to do even more nothing. do you understand#if i lived on my own i probably would consider some weird night shift job#but its probably better i have the routine i have living during the day like a normal person#despite the drawbacks of my cursed routine#where are those jobs i see people making tiktoks about where you do fuck all in the office and send like one email a day. id kill for that#my dream is to be paid for like. mostly sitting somewhere where i can work on my needlepoint#id even do mindless data entry. PLEASE pay me for mindless data entry i love repetitive tasks. if you let me listen to music im unstoppable#ive come across a couple data entry jobs but i think they always require a college degree#and its like oops sorry i never had the time or money for that! still dont! however i can promise you my autism is qualification enough#my dad talks about the market research jobs he used to have and how for like the entry level jobs there#there was clearly so much goof off time they were playing early computer games and shit#but there were like so much more data entry jobs that i guess are obsolete now bc of technology#and its like yes technology good but theyve destroyed an important job category: jobs where you do fuck all#whenever i have one of these crises i also check out gigs n jobs on craigslist and unfortunately everything there seems so sketchy#like every 'personal assistant' job sounds either super pervy or like im going to get serial killed#i should get paid a million dollars a year for doing nothing at all i think#anyway once again my only option is my successful director dreams. would be great if theyd actually happen#<- guy that doesnt spend enough time actually working on creative works in progress#well anyway. such is my mental state today thank you for your time

Fun fact, back when I worked at Dave and Busters and was told I needed to work labor day, I asked if we'd get holiday pay for it and my manager literally didn't answer; he just laughed at me and walked away. I'm glad there are places that at least offer holiday pay since they want retail and service workers to work on labor day.
that's beyond fucked up. it should totally be required by law for working on federal holidays to get the overtime pay??? sorry but if the country considers it an important enough day to give themselves off, the folk who have to work should be properly compensated.
I hope you coincidentally were 'out of town' or 'sick' on holidays cause fuck that manager
#til holiday pay isn't even required#that actually makes me so mad#I'm already working for shit wages and like there's no way I'd not get paid for holidays#my wage isn't even LIVABLE for my town#I did the math a few months ago to go over rent with my mom#and if I spend absolutely nothing besides internet and phone bill#I made about 700 bucks on the terrible hours my work gave me (a month)#rent went to 1600 this year#I don't even make HALF of my rent#Im fucking partime and if I went full time I still wouldn't make it#before the house got foreclosed mortgage was like 900#unfortunately my dad was terrible with money and my mom never held him accountable so bye byr house#bye bye living wage#God I want this housing bubble to pop#can't believe having a roof over our head isn't considered a human right#what a fucked up world we live in

I think if people took a fraction of the time they spend arguing about whether or not people should use the term “content” for art/writing online and instead used it to tip/commission creators and send nice comments and spread their work the world would be a better place but maybe that’s just me
#I just think that arguing over terminology takes up an unholy amount of space on my dash#and no one actually seems to care about creators it’s just ‘stop calling it content creation’ and ‘don’t call it engagement’ like#I appreciate you’re trying to decouple capitalism and art but quite frankly people who make money off of art#aren’t really gonna benefit from that#because unfortunately money is required to live. which sucks but that’s the world we exist in#and arguing over terms won’t change that

I have failed to account for exactly what “only 2-6% of people who take this (insert career) skills aptitude test pass it” meant…
…🥲 I take this test on the 28th and hmm it’s like all my worst subjects in school had a baby from hell and the test is that baby.
I’m was a sociology major I haven’t had to touch math and logic problems with a ten foot pole since 2018/19.
It’s not like I have a lot riding on this test, it’s not a dream career just an opportunity that presented itself but bahaha studying for this is a bitch
#captainderyn rambles#I despise test taking#and I despise math#this would be a great opportunity because ya know ✨money✨ which is good for my hobbies#and unfortunately as much as I love historically interpreting as my job the pay is…dismal#and any progression into the museum and archival side of things requires a masters which is MORE MONEY#so what I’m saying is manifest some math prowess for your local Deryn she’s struggling lol

in my spreadsheet I have a column that's just a Y/N for whether the program meets the state requirements for licensure in California bc there are SO many jobs in California
#unfortunately california has some very california specific classes so programs outside the state usually don't meet the requirements#but for that kind of money i would jump through hoops like a circus clown

i just wanted to show off my robos
the first one is talus, a robotic vessel that's been infected with a virus and turned violently evil; the second one is lockjaw, a super ancient machine that was dredged up from the bottom of the ocean and whose origins precede the all early local civilization
and then i have plans for this guy maxim, another super old construct built by a king to protect the royal treasury. unfortunately maxim was built so well that he continues to protect the treasury centuries after the kingdom has fallen.
and these two scientists! the skydancer is jacob, he's a necromancer-artificer and the one who built talus, but talus won't listen to any of his commands and he has no idea how to turn it off lmao. the mirror is dr. artis, she makes war machines for fun.
#i should update their outfits with the new apparel#unfortunately that requires money i do not have lol#fr dragon share#flight rising

i need to make good character refs but drawing is so hard . they're in there some where
#vwoop.noises#I also need to get thr courage . To pay people to draw my little guys about them. But this requires saying words#Looks longingly. Like I fully want to spend money I just have SOCIAL ANXIETY#I've lurked this guy's comm page Like twice#Like genuinely everyone benefits when you Pay People Money. Unfortunately. < This thing cannot speak to people ey do not know#But regardless I need my refs to be coherent beforehand anyways. Sad!#If I inconvenience a contract worker I have to die seven thousand deaths. You understand

fast forwarding past the claire scenes and realizing they are so long. in a show where everything moves at a pretty fast clip why do we need to drag ass during this weird cliched girl next door fantasy
#they could have made claire a temporary love interest but like... likeable and interesting still. that's the headscratcher#idk again like i love when guys and ladies on tv talk to each other like actual friends but also want to make out. that's hot#this is not it. unfortunately#this is 'pretty girl with soft voice and big shiny eyes thinks you're the most interesting man in the world and pursues you no matter what'#god it would have been so funny if she like. long conned him and stole money from the restaurant or something lmao#like WHY is she obsessed with this dude. but that would require giving a woman actual motivations
