Noodles and Tea’s work inspired me fr
#phineas and ferb#gravity falls#perry the platypus#bill cipher#crossover#heinz doofenshmirtz#major monogram#great googly moogly#And at this one stand there was this forest service guy#and he was selling these really amazing muffins#they had Dunkleberries and EVERYTHING they looked delicious but they had nuts in them so I didn’t buy them#(I’m not allergic or anything I just think that there is a time and a place where you don’t put nuts in food#like seriously this thing was STUFFED with pecans and I was like that’s gonna ruin the flavor! Pecan…. that’s a really weird word you know#like try saying it out loud a couple times. Pecan.. peCHAAANs. Pea-can. hm. hm.#anyway)#but this guy had some other really random junk lying around so I decided to take a look and I actually found something really msyerious!#there was this book with a big ‘2’ on it and I couldn’t find the other ones so I was like hey where’s the rest of these and he was like#we already sold them off and I was like WHAT that’s so crazy#like if you’re gonna sell a set of books#WHY would you sell each one separately cuz that would really suck to just like#start in the middle of a series or get hooked and never be able to continue it#and I was pretty wary anyways cuz it looked so CRYPTIC and WEIRD#but he said he’d give it to me for 92 cents and baby that’s a STEAL#couldn’t NOT take it#I mean it sat around on my desk for months and I mainly just used it as a paperweight until one night#they stopped broadcasting America’s Got Talent on my channel and out of SPITE I decided to find a way to defy American Tradition#and read a book#….what? ohhhh you though I was gonna build an inator over this#no at the time I was already working on a Tuesday Inator that would force every Calendar in the Tri-State area to always have every day#as Tuesday so I could ALWAYS have a discount on tacos! do you know how OVERPRICED those things are when they’re not on Tuesday?

tbh italian tennis has the same problem as american tennis in that their support of players is completely fair-weather
#obviously I’ve gone on many unhinged rants about the treatment of american tennis players#but the more I think about it the italians get the same shit#matteo berrettini has basically been disowned because of his injury#everyone has written off lorenzo musetti because of a slump#and don’t even get me started on jannik until he started having great results everyone was like “oh he isn’t REALLY italian”#and now everyone is like “ohhh jannik we never doubted you for a second! you’re the best!”#and no one ever talks about like jasmine paolini or martina trevisan despite them being ranked just as high as most of the guys#if not higher#ughhhh

ALSO I am learning how to teach very introverted students, something my natural skillset as a teacher does not help me with.
#one of my greatest tools in the toolkit of my teaching (imo) is that I am unpredictable#I will turn on a dime and I’ll share a thought from the depths of my soul or back of the pantry of my random opinions#that will make them laugh or hook them and they want to hear more#with a group of introverted students maybe they love to see it maybe they don’t but it doesn’t work for them to become engaged#they get so quiet and so still#and not in the good way that kind of happens but kind of just in the scared mouse kind of way#BUT. this past week I kind of had a breakthrough#I totally wasn’t planning on it but the moment was right so I talked to them about them being quiet and introverted (gently teasing them)!#and then I said ‘but do you like it when I just stand here and talk about the book’ and they were like ‘yeah! kind of the pressure is off’#and then I said ‘oh! that’s good to know. because when you’re quiet it makes me feel like you hate me’#(not realizing until I said it that that was the heart of the issue)#and they laughed in surprise (i didn’t say it in a way where I was putting that burden on them in a serious way)#and then I said ‘yeah last night I went home like ‘omg was that a stupid thing to say about Frank Churchill?? no one responded’#and then they kind of shriek-laughed at me and they were like noooooo#and then they said what if we gave you a thumbs up when you were done so you know we don’t hate you#and I said that would be great#and THEN a few days later I gave them an agenda for our discussion written out on the board#where I talked and they listened (I called it discussion with myself) and then they had questions to ponder and things to talk about#with each other. and a lot of time. and THEN I cold called them (they won’t volunteer)#but by that time they were so much more relaxed and they knew what we were doing#so they talked more! and it was so goooood#ALSO idk if it was them#or me who had changed but by the time I got to lecturing at them again#I could feel the quiet warmth that I could not before#(the absence of which is what makes speaking publicly instantly a torture to me l o l)#and it helped so much! like. they didn’t say much (some of them did the thumbs up)#but I had cleared the expectations for them and for me tbh and it helped. I was not waiting for a response from them so in fact I got more#of one. and best of all I could feel them feeling both the warmth and the power of Emma a little bit more#it is starting to click. anyway this is so much but y eah#I’ve been wrestling with this problem a l l year. cracking it in December lol

Maaan I love the optimistic advice "keep practicing and you'll get better at art" as much as the next artist, but it always rubs me the wrong way when that evolves into "just keep practicing and you WILL 100% succeed and CAN get into the industry."
It changes from good general advice to implying you're just doing something wrong if still haven't "made it" yet. Not in the industry? Well, you just haven't worked hard enough, obviously, as if there aren't plenty of other factors that play into "succeeding” in a highly competitive industry like art.
Don’t let advice that’s supposed to be encouraging turn into something discouraging 😭
#there’s a lot more to worming your way into the art industry than just. studying art real hard and working your bones off#hard work only gets you so far.#a lot of ‘success’ also starts at childhood and that goes for any industry#having supportive family and even better if they’re financially supportive#good early education. good physical and mental health. the ability to focus and do the same task over and over for hours#good social skills- because networking gets you a lot further than pure talent alone.#growing up in a convienaint location to even network at all. or the power to travel to such a location.#natural talent puts you ahead. brains work differently so it’s ignorant to pretend natural talent isn’t a thing#some take to a skill faster than others because their brain comes out more wired for it. so their skills develop easier and faster#music never came to me. I can’t hear the tone of my own voice most of the time. I DID study music and take mystic classes as a teen#it’s insulting to be banged over the head with ‘if you study music you’ll start to get it.’ I’m 28#I know myself and have tried during an age which music is easier to learn and yet I did not. I don’t have talent for it- my brain doesn’t-#-grasp it. the same with any art. some will struggle more to learn visual art ‘good enough’ for the industry#and implying that they just don’t get it yet becasue they haven’t tried hard enough is insulting#you can always get better. always always!! but sometimes grinding is just… grinding. fruitless and painful#I failed algebra twice as a teen. I couldn’t understand punnet squares till my 20s.#saying work harder and you’ll become a math professor would be insulting. implying I never tried to learn at all.#implying that even tho I took tutoring multiple times that maybe. if I just took one more. poor id suddenly be more able.#people work hard and it just clicks and 10 years later you’re in a great art industry job… you’re not the rule. you’re the exception#ugggh sorry :p just frustrated. sometimes people just don’t realize the kind of luck they’ve had in life and it irritates me

Reading some of the critiques of pjotv and now I know why y’all are on tumblr and not in the writer’s room 💀💀
#ive said this before but i have to say it again because some of you guys …#calling the BLACK SAILS writers bad 😭😭 do you hear yourselves#all opinions are valid but some are stupid!!!#(i kid but also i think y’all have just aged out of pjo and are expecting something that even the og series was not delivering)#like the source material is middle grade! which is 8-12 year olds#literally the oldest of the target audience is a seventh grader lol#like i was literally six when we got assigned tlt in school#it’s a kids book and a kids show and y’all really got to start treating it like that#otherwise you’re only going to be severely disappointed#(and wrongly so because you’re expectations are skewed from years of fandom)#anyway i think the show is doing a great job of filling in plot holes and fleshing out characters and unraveling plot threads#it’s disappointing that y’all can’t see that because you want a scene by scene copy paste of the books#like some of y’all need a lesson in thematic cohesion and building a multi-season show with a specific overarching theme and message lol#because that’s something the og book series was missing#rick struggled to tie all of his ideas and messages into a cohesive goal so it felt messy at times#i actually have so many thoughts about how the show is doing a lot better than the books#the books would undermine their own goals sometimes because of the focus on action#while the show is reallying building up the characters and exploring the dynamics before the action kicks off#because why would you be invested in any type of action sequence if you don’t care about the characters?#percy jackson#annabeth chase#grover underwood#sally jackson#gabe ugliano#poseidon#percy jackson and the olympians#pjotv

by all these reactionary ferrari headlines you’d think that carlos has a 14-1 h2h record over charles so far or something but if you use your brain a little you’ll realise the number of comparable weekends has been 2. two.
#not even going in how embarrassing it is that carlos is qualifying better rn because he’s shitter on the tires#if this theory is true its not even skill… its a lack of skill… that he’s benefitting from…#we’re also on race fucking four gods he needs to get a seat#and if the headlines all mysteriously quiet down and its crickets when charles starts dunking tenths on him in quali again-#ive done great at avoiding these but i saw some clickbait mark webber headline and i was genuinely curious like what does mark webber have#to say. turns out nothing much he avoided the question like a smart man. fuck f1 journalism#this is fucking crazy like you’re doomposting over 2025 ferrari based off 2 race weekends?? are u on crack#by this metric at the end of the 2023 season where carlos was like fucking nowhere while charles was battling max for the win in vegas#there should have been articles asking for sainz to be fired like it has to go both ways#lewis wouldn’t drop the ball at ad23 like someone did hahaha

there’s so much i wanna do this week/month/etc but i’m just too sick, i have no energy, i can’t sleep, i’m constantly nauseous and headachey and on the verge of a migraine, i’m stressed and irritable and impatient and panicky…….how tf did i survive nearly 5 years of high school untreated if i can’t even manage this when i don’t have any major obligations rn
#at least i finally got my meds so hopefully i feel a little better soon#although i’m now on 20 pills per day which is Just Great#whenever i’m in remission it’s nice to just. forget sometimes that this can happen at any time#kinda wish i had the typical kinda chronic illness that people talk about with ‘flares’#or at least triggers that i can plan around#the other times have all had an easily identifiable stressor tho tbf. idk what caused this one#the first time was whooping cough and the next few were all very major life stressors like my cat dying right after i started uni#and i think also towards the end of my honours thesis?#but this…….there’s no major stress right now. nothing wildly beyond normal#i’m a little concerned about my joints tho. they’ve been so much worse than normal the last few months#so i’m kinda worried i’m developing rheumatoid arthritis (also an autoimmune disease and it runs in the family specifically)#so if that’s happening then it could set my thyroid off? probably should get to the doctor at some point#obv i’m seeing my endo for thyroid stuff. but i should see my gp and get her to run all the autoimmune blood tests again#i’ve done that before but it’s been a few years and my ankles and knees are so painful i can’t even walk properly a lot of the time#BUT I JUST WANNA DO THINGS I ENJOY AND I CANT AND I WILL CONTINUE TO COMPLAIN ABOUT IT#‘oh you’re so lucky you don’t have as many obligations because you’re chronically ill’ ha ha ha please swap lives with me immediately#personal#but seriously. i wasn’t diagnosed until i was nearly 17 and we can trace it back to whooping cough when i was 12#so it was the last half of year 6 and then all of years 7-10 and the start of year 11 of just being. uh. ‘very lazy and complaining a lot’#and TEACHERS joking about me and my sister (who was dealing with an arguably more severe undiagnosed disease) missing so many classes#wow so funny pdhpe teacher who’s supposed to be teaching is about health#and the thing with being a mentally ill teenager is that hyperthyroidism can just look like a very severe anxiety disorder#so i didn’t go to the dr until i was too sick to go to school at all. and luckily had a good dr who did a blood test#i’m just rambling now because i can’t sleep and i don’t wanna lie here doing nothing#might go play pvz or something. that’s been keeping me entertained

anxiety disorder is such a bitch i’m excited to go to the renaissance festival with my friends tomorrow and because i am excited my body is excited which means i am now Scared . COOL !
#marzi speaks#no brain. we do not need to worry about whether we’ll fuck up our makeup#we are going to a fun festival with close friends. you are not competing in a beauty pageant#you’re gonna keep the makeup relatively simple anyways. you’re barely even gonna use any eyeliner. it’s Fine#you do not need to worry about disability things. your friends are very accomodating and in that group is another person with a disability#and you two both will be needing benches. so it will be fine.#if you start feeling sick you go find a quiet place to relax or if you really have to: leave#if your corset gets too tight. you can: take it off !! literally it is no big deal#it’s fine. it will be a great time. calm down#ah stress brain. how you piss me off

there are like only three real contenders for winning dwts this season and to be honest i finally watched this week’s episode and genuinely skipped over everyone else… actually not true i watched jenn tran she’s not bad! and the bachelor guy isn’t horrible either but who even cares this mirrorball trophy is ilona, stephen, or chandler’s to win let’s take this seriously. and i would honestly be fine with any of them winning this is fortunately not a repeat of season 27 where i still feel a rage in my soul when i’m in my moms car and she has her radio on and i hear anything to do with bobby bones…. i’m still praying on that man’s downfall it’s beyond serious that shit was RIGGED! justice for milo manheim! anyway. i don’t think chandler will win because while she has the judges scores and is clearly the best dancer on the show i don’t feel like she has the popular vote in the bag especially since in olympic years people tend to watch the show for the olympians and vote for them so it feels like the real contest is between ilona and stephen. i don’t think ilona is as good a dancer but i know she’s gonna make it super far because she HAS the popularity and she’s really good enough at dancing to coast through and also people like alan he’s one of the better pros on the show rn (i personally would not describe brandon that way sorry chandler they gave you a mid one. i mean he’s not a bad pro he’s just not one of the elites. he could never be the next derek hough. alan could be the next derek hough if he tried… ok i’m biased for alan he danced with hannah brown a few seasons back and they won and it was beautiful and i loved it SORRY for being an alan girl…) meanwhile stephen is a pretty great dancer AND has the popularity so i kinda think he’s gonna win it. which will be a loss for me as a chandler kinney fan but hey i like stephen too and rylee is one of my favorite pros so i’d love to see her get a win on her second season (rylee is one of my favorites entirely due to nepotism btw… this is the first time i’ve seen her on the show but she’s literally lindsey arnold’s sister… i fucking LOVED lindsey when she was on…) anyway. rip anna delvey you came you gave nothing and you got eliminated week two. slay
#what none of you know is that i was religious about watching dwts back in the day#i did fall off when i went to college because well it’s hard to keep up with tv when you don’t have a tv and you’re in a dorm room#and then of course the show started falling off not long after i stopped watching#but i think this season has been a real shift i think we’re back. julianne hough as a cohost is an awesome move i love julianne…#derek also really stepping into len’s shoes as the judge that’s kind of harsh but loving…#and alfonso ribeiro is a great host as well. idk why they brought in tyra banks for a wile that was odd… she is not dwts vibes at all….

what up i’ve been awake since 5 am after falling asleep at fucking midnight but i won my first fortnite battle royale solo last night and my anxiety is ✨ buzzing ✨.
#ooc. o kaptain.#[my aunt called me at 5 literally crying because she was stuck downstairs on the toilet and couldn’t get up. and it shocked me awake but i#handled it surprisingly well so there’s that in spite of the continuous flashback i feel like im trapped in. i just. so desperately want to#have a day that doesn’t start and end with a disaster. had a cursory interaction with my other aunt that just… made me feel worse. feels#great when people quite literally are just talking to you to go ‘how’s your aunt???’. i need a day off so bad but like. a real one. one#with actual time off. you ever feel enclosed inside your own brain but also you’re incredibly alone outside of it? fucking hell i miss… my#entire family. I miss having a family. what the fuck does it feel like for your home to be a place of comfort and not a hellish chaos.]#negativity /#medical mention /#medical /

anyways in 2019/2020 i went on a rampage on eurovision youtube regarding lena and maNga (nothing too wild, i was 18, but mainly just calling them out on being plain delusional and then getting called racist in return) and i still get salty maNga stans replying years later and its honestly so pathetic the more time goes by. grow up. get a hobby. who the fuck cares. you found my four year old comment and you decided to argue back.
#if you don’t know lena won 2010 for germany but turkey came second#quite a few turkish fans seen to not want to let this go and will basically bully any lena stan they see.#you see one of the biggest things re the eurofandom ebu aside is some stans do Not understand opposing music tastes#so what if someone prefers a generic swedish pop song over a balkan ballad they have a right to enjoy whatever#you’re not better for liking balkan ballads#for me sometimes they hit but often they don’t#balkan bangers on the other hand mostly hit#so what if someone prefers ukrainian folk to idk… hard rock#its in their right#nothing is essentially wrong#and so what if someone fucking enjoys joke entries#i fuvking LOVE congratulations by silvia night#not that this matters but commenting on my four year old comment about a fourteen year old victory is pathetic#get a life and go touch grass#in fact i wanna comment that but its better if i don’t respond#but yeah#they’re delusional and i hate them and by god just fucking leave me alone#it is a sure fire way to tell the off season has started#but honestly idk what will even happen next year im trying to not think about it#also maNga was great but they were not robbed lmao#also their stans are annoying mostly and maNga i think are whack politically? not that i care#eurovision#eurovision 2010
