Sorry, being called by someone else is EVEN WORSE than calling someone.
It is always at an inconvenient time! (Because I have a kid and audio processing issues, all times are inconvenient for me to take a call.) I can't tell in advance if it's someone soliciting me for donations! Or trying to scam me! Or a bill collector! Or any other kind of call I do not want to deal with!
The distinguishing feature of the very few people who I want to talk to is that I have their number in my contacts so their name shows up when they call. I don't get that if someone is calling me back from a business call I made! Even if I have the main number in my contacts, that person's outgoing number might be something else!
And this is why the greeting on my voicemail literally says, "please hang up and send me a text".
Almost nobody fucking does, of course.
Guy did you know that if you make the phone call then the phone call is made and it's actually quite fast and easy to do and will stop haunting your to-do list for months?
#no I am not a millenial#no I am not Gen Z#no I am not Gen Alpha#or whatever the new generations are#I'm late Gen X but just a bit too old to be Xennial#what I do have is:#hearing loss and audio processing issues#and#telephone technical support trauma#working for a small company#whose scope of support was “is it for connecring to the internet or your email or the web? we'll give it a go”#there could be ANYTHING on the other end of that line when I picked it up#and now I can't cope with phones in either direction#please just text me#please just let me pay you online

Poppy playtime got a guy worse than William Afton
#myart#chloesimagination#comic#fnaf#five nights at freddy's#fnaf fanart#springtrap#william afton#harley sawyer#fnaf 3#poppy playtime#poppy playtime doctor#poppy playtime chapter 4#So I saw the new poppy playtime chapter#and I think the plot and characters finally worked for me#really sparked my interest#I DONT love all the directions that chapter takes#but can we all talk about how cool the doctor is#AND BY that I mean how truly twisted he is#William’s crimes somehow feel small now#in the face of the company that just experiments on just kids#the doctor is awful in every way sick and twisted#and I think that’s epic#just the idea of William hearing the shit playtime co got up to#like I think the scale of it would genuinely shock him#even if he’s interested in that science as well#I may draw a lil more poppy stuff as a treat we’ll see

Hey maybe a group of creatives deciding that they want control over their content and don't want to waste time and resources begging for ad revenue is like. A good thing
#lav rambles#watcher#its literally just what dropout did#i understand being upset at having to get another subscription#but did yall watch the video?#this is something theyre excited about#that will allow them to make more and better shows#and youtube just wasnt working for them anymore#like honestly id rather have a couple small subscriptions to companies i love#and want to support#than get their stuff for free with countless ads that hinder their creativity and freedom

do you think it was weird for mike to go to california and experience his first byers family dinner in months just for it to be far too similar to wheeler family dinners
#stranger things#the duffer brothers#80s#byler#will byers#mike wheeler#miwi#joyce byers#the byers family#like think about their little christmas dinner in s1#THATS what byers family dinners are like#they have genuine conversation and enjoy each others company#and then in s4 its just... literally small talk and lying#mike must have unfortunately felt right at home#at least for just a second#and in the worst way#'oh so this is no longer a safe space???'#mike 'petty revenge' wheeler cracks his knuckles#I KNOW WHAT TO DO#*makes a comment that makes it a million times worse*#then all innocent what i thought this was a FAMILY DINNER#I KNOW HOW THIS WORKS#I HAVE THEM EVERY NIGHT#WE ARE ALL SUPPOSED TO STORM AWAY TO OUR RESPECTIVE ROOMS THATS HOW YOU KNOW DINNER IS OVER

I want. Four to get appreciation. Because
Four gave a ton of unnoticed help when Twilight was injured
The fight with Wild was difficult, and I know we're all concerned about his negative view of the shadow crystal
But Four did something that no one else really thought of to help- He took care of Twi's stuff
From the beginning he told Twilight to not worry about them
So Four took care of pretty much everything but the others (that Sky and Wars handled)
He took care of Epona
Which is so very important- he took care of Twilight's horse. After her arrival at the stable Four followed up on her
And for Epona, a horse so attached to her human, having some company can help so much for reassurance
He took care of Twilight's stuff
He got Twi's shield- his bags and equipment, and organized it into one place
And he was worried. He obviously found the shadow crystal while handling Twi's stuff, but his negative reactions to it were out of concern.
Also- because of his placement in this scene
I'm fairly convinced Four was ready to start cooking before Wild showed up (since he's beside the counter with food supplies). At the very least he had the basket of fruit out for everyone -but he was literally standing with food behind him- he thought of everything
And he did housekeeping!
Wars payed for the inn, so Four took care of the inn
Realistically these boys were probably not too concerned with tidyness. Four got all of Twi's things on one table, and took care of the room they stayed in
Organizing tables and Twi's things, having food supplies ready, and opening the curtains- overall he was the one tidying up the inn
Four helped in a huge way! He took care of Twi's horse (Epona is so important), his equipment and shield and bag, as well as the other rooms in the inn
Four filled in all the little tasks that others didn't think of. He helped in ways that were needed, but not obvious
There's a lot of problems with the shadow crystal and with Wild, and I don't know what's gonna happen in the future
But don't forget this- don't forget that Four was one who stepped up in an almost unnoticeable way
Don't forget that when everyone was barely holding it together, Four visited Twilight's horse and took care of his things
No matter what develops in the future- this amount of care shown is important ya know?
.
Art and comic from Jojo @linkeduniverse au :)))
#epona is so important#Lu four#linkeduniverse#linked universe#I work with horses and#Epona is INCREDIBLE- she's extremely attuned to humans and emotions. she doesn't scare easily and can keep her cool in a fight#but it's still super stressful to suddenly be in a fairly large and populated town- separated from her person#and for such an empathetic horse? Four going and TALKING to her- gently petting her nose and just being near her#means so so much! that literally matters so much to a horses mental state in a foreign situation- just having company#he checked on Epona and gave her company like !!!!!! it's so considerate and means so much for Epona! Four I love you !!!!!#uhhhh yeah!#with the food- I don't think the innkeeper would have free/complimentary food out- but wars wallet def had it covered#then wild showed up with potions in a cooking frenzy- but four was still shown with food behind him- he thought of everything#I don't know what's gonna happen with the shadow crystal and stuff. but no matter what happens in the future- this matters.#he did a ton of small things no one else thought of it matters he cares so much didjdkdksjfjj#I have a lot of posts I'm making/editing and trying to get to. I'm just a little gal trying my best :/#so many ideas and so little time... I love you guys and this fandom so much :))#(if I said anything off or offensive let me know... I'm always nervous about that but I want to hear from you if I'm wrong)#(also you are so so cool and valuable don't forget that ok? I love you and you are important)#:)

if you're wondering why bob is here it's bc in the original villareal story there was a very minor background detail that diego lobo and bob pancakes dated in college and broke up tragically and that's where the story peaked. so i included him it's still canon
thank you for these it was so fun!!!!!!!!!!!!
i did these in my this is the fall sim style so i'm thinking. if they exist in this universe what's all their opinions on the 'did jacques do it' situation. let's take a look
don: saw a photo of jacques's wife on the news during the investigation. said "whoa mama that's a hot babe!" like johnny bravo and did not read the headline. does not know anything about it still.
vlad: well he's psychic he could figure out the truth if he actually cared. and he has!
olive: obviously respects it. except for the getting investigated part, would never happen to her.
diego: does not think jacques did it but enjoys the tabloids. knows other rich people personally who he thinks have killed their spouses
morgyn: will post things like "friendly reminder that j*cques v*llareal literally killed his wife and is a billionaire so maybe don't go to one of their hotels" on tumblr and will then do a call out post about like a fanfic writer who wrote an unhealthy relationship with more severity
pascal: knows conspiracy theories and this one is bullshit. or maybe it just doesn't interest him as much as aliens and that's why he thinks that
jeb: has a very "well of course he did. them rich folk can do whatever they want. there ain't no hope for the rest of us" while kicking a can down the road approach
bob: thinks he did it. is very alarmed that it was brushed off. eliza's like bob book the hotel and he's like am i going crazy. does anyone hear me.
#olive and pascal do NOT exist in this is the fall strangetown has their own universe but it's still fun#i really need to finish remaking all of strangetown#for the record human vlad works for the company high up he knows jacques. he keeps his feelings on the matter private.#but anyway yes bob and diego. both from small towns met in college. diego was in drag and bob thought he was a woman#then was still attracted to him out of drag and had a months long spiral about his sexuality it was a thing#they just wanted different things. it wouldn't have worked. bob likes small towns. he wanted to stay and have a house and a family#diego wanted the exact opposite. they had to part ways. bob still thinks about him laying awake at night. kind of a lot#bob is like he probably doesn't think about me at all anymore he's definitely moved on. no diego thinks about him a lot too#the ones that got away#ts4#ts4 cas#ts4 edit#the sims 4#townie makeover#townie makeovers#don lothario#vladislaus straud#olive specter#diego lobo#morgyn ember#pascal curious#jeb harris#bob pancakes#this is the fall: extras

FUCK YES BDS WIN!!!!!! the link is to this article
#palestine#bds movement#sodastream you bitches are NEXT#(the other focused boycott targets: HP; Puma; Ahava; Israeli produce and wines; AXA insurance; and Siemens)#the targeted boycott focusing all the attention on breaking this small list of corporations/industries is a deliberate choice#and DRASTICALLY more effective than any lists you might see with dozens of companies to boycott#stop buying HP computers and printers. even if they're a little cheaper (and they aren't always) (and fuck inkjet printers anyway)#(it's an inherently predatory business model)#(a laser printer will save you thousands on ink especially now that they make the cartridges stop working when they're still like 1/3 full)

I literally texted my beloved and posted on tumblr that my interview went well.
Within half an hour I was convinced it has actually gone terribly and also panicking about picking one mattress place over the one I know better and being scared about trying to learn a new system while simultaneously being excited by the idea of having money again and also scared I won’t keep applying for rigging jobs when the industry picks up.
I’m just a meme of a guy slapping my roof and saying “this lil guy can fit so many anxieties!”
#ramblies#change is hard#but god money will be nice#and I can literally get paid to keep honing my skills#it doesn’t really get better than that#it’ll mean only one day off with my beloved and it’s allergy injection day which does suck#I had planned to have my doctor do a note that I can only work four days a week#which is still 40 hour weeks but I’m worried about backlash if I do that#it’s a small company and I feel like I’d be more open to trying that with the big company with an established HR team

And that’s a wrap for Comic Con 2024! Ha, it was a lot of fun, but I really enjoyed dressing up as Mondo today! I even had a couple people recognize him! And a few others just liked the hair, one of whom asked how long it took me to get my hair like that, which tells me that at least it looks natural enough for people to mistake it as my actual hair, ha.
Overall, Comic Con was cool! On Thursday, I attended a live podcast recording for Braving the Elements, which is an Avatar the Last Airbender podcast hosted by Janet Varney and Dante Bosco (the voices of Korra and Zuko, respectively), and I actually got a trivia question right and I should (hopefully…) get an email from them soon to get a prize for answering the question right. If not… oh well. At least I’ll be featured briefly on the podcast answering trivia correctly, even though I usually suck at trivia, ha.
The rest of the days were a bit more meh, but I still had fun. I won a Pokeball ornament from a Hallmark panel, since I knew how many Squirtles were in the Squirtle Squad, aha. Which leaves my trivia score 2 for 2 at the moment.😅 I also got a free shirt and scarf for the upcoming Yakuza live action show, which was neat. I’ve never played Yakuza, but my brother has, so I was able to give him the shirt at least.
Still, while Comic Con was fun, I’m definitely glad it’s over so I can go home and clean up from my frantic cosplay creating the last several weeks, oof.
Also! On the first day I dressed at Taka, but since I was by myself I only have the one photo my dad was able to quickly take of me before he had to drive off and a quick selfie I took in the car.
#danganronpa#mondo owada#kiyotaka ishimaru#GPOY#ishimondo#personal post#My angry face could do some work ha#I can do a mean death glare. But angry face? Not as much sadly#Oh well.#Oh! And I’m kinda proud of myself with the Taka costume#Not for anything I did on the costume but because I was able to lose enough weight to fit into the cosplay jacket I bought years ago!#It was too small when I bought it and while I got it refunded I didn’t actually return it#Since the company was trying to make me spend $40 to send it back?#And I was like… that pretty much takes up the majority of the cost of the outfit what.#So I never sent it back and still got the money for it#I always thought that MAYBE I would one day lose enough weight to fit it#But I didn’t have much hope of it#But! I have found a good medication that helps with my appetite and I am trying to exercise more#And now the jacket fits!#The pants of the cosplay still don’t but that’s fine#I have white pants ha#Oh also yes my hair did deflate as the day went on ha#I’ll fix it before the next con I decide to wear this costume to#Luckily I didn’t overheat that badly while wearing it#There was one moment where I got very dizzy but that happens every so often with me these days#The heat didn’t help but it didn’t fully cause it either

some meurcliff au ramblings abt their friendship and how it came to be more than that :)
second pic doesnt tell details but - meursault was the one helping heath out with a job by telling his old acquaintance with a restaurant business abt him, so he wasn't spending that much time in the bar afterwards and meursault missed his presence even though the guy kept distracting him from work and all that. still he felt like a nice man to have around. i felt a need to write that cuz it looks like heathcliff straight up vanished or smth at that situation - no he actually kept coming he just became a busy man
oh and also i have some thoughts abt greg living close to meursault and also visiting the bar he works at from time to time, so they're in each other's background basically. and heath was a constant visitor for a while so greg did in fact see him practically every time he came over, so that's how they met
#moroderdraws#limbus company#limbus company au#modern meurcliff au#meursault limbus company#heathcliff limbus company#gregor limbus company#meurcliff#can you tell that i enjoy writing out those small comics. its sad that theyre so scribbly but i dont have time and patience to work longer#on making them look better so yeah#still a good way to manifest them from my mind somehow

i swear my stepdad is so illogical AND stubborn it hurts
#okay so strap in coz this is a wild ride#tl;dr we have been without heat and warm water for years and i mean literal years#because he refuses to pay off some debt he built up with the company#because he feels unfairly treated (let's not get into this. it absolutely makes no sense) by the company#so instead of doing the logical step of growing some balls and admitting he made a mistake and paying off his shit#he's been looking for a new supplier all over but the deal IS#that he's been doing this with a couple of places before and people are hesitant to even make him any offers#and you'd think that learning about THAT at least now he'd be like. idk willing to just pay off his debt and be done with it#but you'd be WRONG#now he's looking to just have our entire heating system replaced for the teeny tiny price of 25000 bucks#mind you his debt isn't even a THIRD of that#and obviously he can't afford those 25000 bucks#so what's his next step now you might wonder?#well good thing you asked. his next step is going off on ME for not paying towards the new heating he wants#and now that that's not working for him guess what he did next?#that's right. he bought shit expensive 'space heaters' that are pretty much just small little boxes that you plug into an outlet#and he swears up and down that they're going to heat up our house (it's negative degrees outside)#(it's obviously not working)#and genuinely. all i can think of is how much money he shoved into trying to macgyver this house into a house with warm water and heating#and how he blew off ten thousands of bucks he got paid when he retired within the span of two weeks#when this debt could have been paid off ten times over by now#so now you might be thinking. okay tiago. why don't you move out#good question you see. my mom is disabled and reliant on someone who cares for her#something that he can't won't and shouldn't do because the last time he sorta kinda tried she almost died and we had to call an ambulance#she wouldn't eat a thing if i weren't there to cook. the house would fall into disrepair if i wouldn't do maintenance all around#i've set up (functioning) heat in some areas she occupies and i've gotten a boiler going so she at least has warm water#i'm paying off their bills to make sure he doesn't skip on paying any others. i'm buying groceries for them because again they wouldn't get#any for themselves#and finally. i've offered to pay off his debt so that we can finally live like normal fucking people do#and guess what. guess WHAT. he just got mad at me for not adding money to that 25000 bucks pool for that new fancy heating he wants
