my body is currently going through it and all i can think about is joel miller being such a good man and helping to ease the cramps with some soothing hands that dip a bit lower each gentle pass over your tummy to gently gently brush against aching, swollen lips. thick fingers massaging and circling just right to swath the pain in feather light tingling pleasure, shushing you over frets of making a mess or grossing him out and he just says “lil bit of blood ain’t never hurt anyone, just wanna make you feel good, darlin’” and then proceeding to make your vision go white and your body slack from the force of your slowly built release and then cradling you against his hot body, whispering sweet nothings and praise of how well you did and how good you were for him as you drift off into sound sleep

ahem, excuse me 😮‍💨

PROGRAMMERS OF ALL KINDS AND SHAPES, PLEASE UNDERSTAND THIS

A code that doesn't have comments, even if it's well written, is not always very good code. When you want to optimize your code, you're might have to write ugly stuff sometimes ! Look at what data oriented design can produce for example. When optimization introduces unreadability, even if everything else is amazingly written, you need to add comments.

Anyway, use your cli tools on me plz, im cool, im pretty, look at me, blip bloop, blip bloop ❤️💾

all i kept thinking about today at work are the people who lost everything in these fires. i cannot believe that such beloved historical places and an endless amount of homes are nothing but rubble and ash. i’m california born and raised and we have fire season nearly every single year but this…. i’ve never seen anything like this. my heart seriously hurts for LA.

but seeing first responders come from bordering states and even countries is just so incredible. so, so thankful for the support they’ve given LA and the communities within. it’s an incredibly emotional time especially when friends and family live in those areas affected, and seeing so many people coming together to help those affected by this is incredibly heartwarming.

sorry for the rambling, i’ve just been emotional all day and just hope that the first responders make it back home safely after everything and the people who have been affected / displaced from their homes get the resources they need in abundance during this difficult time.

Lil' Update

I know I have been missing from Tumbr for months. I have lurked here and there, but life was too overwhelming to put energy into much outside my responsibilities. My grandfather's health had been declining for about a year. His name is Thomas, so the Peaky Blinders/Cillian fandom was hard to be a part of as it felt like a reminder of the stress going on. He passed away last week, which has been very difficult to process. But I am also glad he is at peace. Now it feels like more of a happy reminder of him. I still am a busy beaver, but I do think I am back. Maybe at a low level of interaction for a bit, but I want to be more active as my schedule frees up (if it ever does).

Missed all my mutuals and all the lovely creators on here! Excited to catch up on months away!

Secrets of the Clans, finally got my paws on it and let me tell you this is lore book heaven. I like the simplicity of its layout. The clan, a quote from an infamous leader and then a really brief description of the clans vibes. My favorite addition is this:

A numbered map with descriptions. Thats brilliant. Definitely the approach I want to take thats just fabulous.

Its then followed by a short story about the clan cats. Something of a large event. Thunderclan is immediately followed up with the death of Swiftpaw. Which honestly I’m confused why the hell thats the story they went with, but I love the Brightpaw pov! But what a like… Bone chilling story. “Hey welcome to my clan! My face was ripped off and I saw my bestie die.”

Tangent aside, its a good idea for world building. I also like how this book begins with the mythos around how the clans were formed. The iconic: UNITE OR DIE!

I think I should start the book with this. But my idea is… Well I’m thinking it’ll be more biblical-esc. More focused on the Elements as well. Rather then Shadow, Thunder, Wind, and River. The first to begin the clans will be Fire, Water, Air, and Earth. Cheesy but like… Come on…

totally didn't have a mini breakdown about both how close and far my move date is last night

i am tired and sore from pacing around my room trying to take stock of everything i have and what i can fit into the back of the truck. i'll have to leave my loveseat behind and possibly my camping stuff. which sucks, but the stuff for the cats and clothing are the most important. everything else is just books and collectibles, which i do love dearly but aren't essential

all i'll have in my room when i get to ca is a bed and the stuff i left behind when i lived there last. just...it's all so mentally tiring when we haven't even booked the two hotels for the three day drive yet despite having the dates set in stone

my under the table job has closed for the summer, so there's no hope of making anything to help fund the trip between now and when i leave and that's....a lot to process. i cannot stand being so reliant on others for this particular move financially but it is what it is

maybe my hate for c++ really is just that I haven't seen my relationship with this language as an actual relationship and more of a "owning a tool to do your job". Maybe I, also, have to give to the language. Maybe it's not all about getting all I want from it, but also letting it express itself, listening to what it says, and giving to it. Maybe I've been a monster to g++. Yes C++ has its rough edges, yes sometimes it doesn't agree with you, yes it has feelings, needs and opinions, and those doesn't always match those of the programmer. Seeing "non trivial constructor" type of error shouldn't make you angry and think "what's that supid language ???!!", but should instead make you realize the language has understanding issues. I'm autistic and I got my quirks, it's a programming language and it has its quirks. They can be beautiful, they can be ugly. It's not its fault, it isn't yours, things aren't always easy. Giving to the language means helping it in these hard times. Take care of your languages, they might not be people, but they still deserve respect.

Except javascript.

Sorry I haven't really been posting. I promise I have several wips I've been working on. It's just getting to the point of actually finalizing them and posting them is hard cuz my wips are always so over the place lol
