Here’s my take on the whole audio books vs. reading:

Oral tradition of storytelling predates written ones by millennias, and honestly, which one you like is just a personal preference.

The actual difference is

when listening, you have no idea how to write characters’ names

when reading, you have no idea how to pronounce characters’ names

hope this helps!

#audio books vs reading #honestly this debate is just pineapple on pizza again #personally i like reading better #i’m a poor listener and since i read faster than people talk i get bored and my mind starts to wander #but who gives a shit #just do what works best for you #in the end we all get the same story #oh and this post is about stories in english #in finnish you rarely have either problem

It's like we all collectively forgot as a society that friendship and just connection in general takes effort. Even if you meet someone you immediately click with, it takes hanging out about 20 times (!) to become friends. And guess what, some of those 20 meetings might be awkward or unimpressive.

We all want to reap the benefits (having a friend circle, having a partner, getting married) without doing the work (going to events, interacting with people, learning to handle conflict maturely, dating). Myself included. If I could, I'd never leave the house or go on another mediocre date again... except, that's part of the process.

I guess what I'm trying to say is, the cure to the loneliness epidemic is touching some grass and building tolerance for tedious in-person interactions.

#yeah I did put on makeup just to go out with someone who doesn't know how to ask interesting questions #I'll do it again just to get to that special person #tagging this lesbian cause that's who my blog is for #but this is true regardless of sexuality #lesbian #dyke #sapphic #wlw #dykeposting #femme4butch #femme #femme lesbian #butch4femme #butch #butch lesbian

one thing that took me embarrassingly long to learn is "sometimes when people say things, they will not be true."

I used to tell people about this revelation and they'd be like yeah.....duh.....but like, why wouldn't my base assumption be that you're communicating to me in a straightforward manner. anyway, I get scammed a lot.

#example: a 'friend' in middle school told me I should ask a guy out. she said 'he'll totally say yes'.#he did not. which was the obvious outcome #but it took me years to realize that she'd said that hoping to fuel some drama for her own entertainment.#ANOTHER EXAMPLE #a guy in college approached me saying that he'd been seeing me around campus but was always too shy to talk to me #and that he really wanted to get to know me #so I was like wow 🥺 romance 🥺 and hopped into bed with him #and afterward I was like what do you wanna do 😊 should we see a movie 😊 should we go out 😊#and he was like nope. byeeee.#and I realized I got bamboozled into sex #total shocked pikachu face #I'm still not the best at this tbh. I'm like 'why would this person lie to me. lying is bad'.#anyway this is why I not looking forward to entering the dating world again #DONT BAMBOOZLE ME I'M GULLIBLE

no one's ever done it like them (derogatory)

#pax hawke #varric tethras #anders #merrill #isabela #da2 #dragon age #my art #my ocs #the omissions aren’t personal i just wasn’t motivated enough to squeeze more figures into the composition but it does work out that #everyone who would probably ditch at that point isn’t pictured lol. i considered adding a deeply unenthusiastic looking fenris cause he’d #probablyyyy stay for pax but it just wasn’t working #i so want to do a da2 run with the personality indicators shut off and actually committing to rivalries #but ive played the first hour or so of da2 so many times i literally can’t get past it now lmao #maybe modding would motivate me… 🤔#anyway sorry i only draw stupid memes anymore it will happen again

everybodys gotta get back into the practice of using pseudonyms online... i remember the time of screen names where u never ever told anyone ur real name and that was just understood as basic internet safety. plus having a screen name is fun because sometimes it sticks so well that it becomes part of ur identity that u can use in whatever facet of ur life you choose. it rocks to pick your own name

#im living proof! i wasnt always called kiwi but now i am and it rocks #but mostly im just worried about all these kids wayyy oversharing personal info online #not to be like aaaggghh kids these days. but.#um people are sharing their full names and schools and deepest secrets with their FACE ATTACHED #i surely dont need to explain why thats scary #tiktok trends where u share stuff you would Never tell people irl.... WITH!!! YOUR FACE!!!!! IN FULL VIEW!!#WHHH.... WHY...........#Get Scared of Internet Strangers Again Please!

I think we should have a turn of phrase for "I'm not in the right, but I AM annoyed with this situation, so I just need to go bitch to a friend about this before I suck it up and go do the right thing" because more and more I'm finding this is a critical element of functional adulthood.

#the person who's re-emailed me asking for help with something: yes I should get back to you. yes I will get back to you #but in the meantime I will look at the email like 'I am busy right now! I have deadlines! do not bother me about this unrelated thing!'#and like in 15 minutes when I'm ready to be an adult again I'll get back to them

the easy grip on the knife. the leg over the seat. the hand over the other seat. the sassy "come get it" move. you know the bitch is smiling behind that mask even as he said the line.

I like to think that Vulcans who come to understand that Humans just can’t try to process emotions the same way as them, it’s just healthiest to let it out in harmless ways, decide that venting and stuff should be taken just as seriously as Vulcan’s meditation time, and will encourage the Humans around them to complain about what’s upsetting them

People who are used to aloof Vulcans who avoid Humans at all cost running into one comforting a Human

“-and then they said my cheesecake was subpar, and they didn’t even bring a dish!!!”

“The purpose of this event was that every participant brings a food item of sorts, correct?”

“Yeah!!”

“And they did not follow this rule while insulting dishes that were brought?”

“Mostly just my dish but yeah >:(“

“How illogical”

“That’s what I’m saying!!!”

#star trek #Vulcans #Humans #not based on a specific thing #but I used to know this annoying couple that were ‘family friends’#who would show up to potluck dinners and the like and would either bring nothing or bring something really just. out of left field?#like a bag of frozen chicken to a bbq #and then proceed to make sure they are first even if it was stated to let kids go first #would take HUGE amounts before anyone else got a chance to get a plate #and then make off with the leftovers again even if they were already claimed for #and it wasn’t a food insecurity thing trust me I would never speak bad about a person getting food if that was even a remote chance #the adults who raised us knew them really well and we’d been to their house a ton of times #they were just dicks #and yeah. they’d occasionally insult the food. while eating the MAJORITY of it.#it was so weird at their home they would go out of their way to get the healthiest options possible #you know the really bland tasteless expensive stuff that apparently was healthier #but then if they were visiting our house they would. eat all our unhealthy snacks.#that always pissed me off so much as a kid because we actually had a food insecurity thing going on #and also a variety of other reasons that are a bit too depressing to bring up on this post #but anyways we’d hardly ever get to have nice snacks #and this couple would just take them all??? even after we’d tell them repeatedly that it was ours and those snacks weren’t gonna be #replaced #hated that couple #if you’re wondering why they were ‘family friends’ it’s because the couple who raised us #(it feels weird to type it out like that but apparently legal guardians doesn’t fit since they never finished petitioning 💀)#liked having them around because it made them look like ‘such great Christian’s’ being nice to the people #that no one else wanted to be friends with #I always thought that was a really weird and fucked up reason to be friends with someone #this got long sorry 😭

I was interested in learning guitar. I asked a couple friends of mine whether to pick up acoustic or electric, and both said to go for acoustic. I did extensive research on Google as well and most articles say that it doesn't really matter. The only con to electric guitar that I see is the pricing, but I'm hoping to go second hand, so that might fall in my budget if I save for a couple months. But I still wanna confer with someone experienced. If anyone's got any advice, please drop it.

#im not 100% averse to acoustic guitar #cause i would love to learn to play hozier and lost stars maybe I've always loved that song #but i feel like after a while i might lose interest in it #so it'll end up stacked on top of a bunch of cartons forgotten #my friends told me acoustic is usually the starting point cause its less responsive #and cheap #but i just keep thinking that isnt it better to wait and spend money on an instrument i know ill be able to sustain my interest on #will delete later #adding fandom tags here for reach but if theres any useful tags i can add do tell me please #arctic monkeys #alex turner #rock music #electric guitar #music <3 #alex turner x reader #obey me #i get personal... again

in case you wanna know how bad things are on twitter rn.

#personal #delete later #i feel kinda sick rn #i got unshadowbanned a few days ago from twitter which means my posts are finally visible again #so i thought “hey at least i can dump old art there that my followers missed” so i made a post trying out a way to avoid grok #which is twitter's a*i thing that can generate/edit art and images #didn't work. art blew up. i got brigaded #y'all can criticize me for even trying to go back to twitter but truthfully i missed the art/fandom community there and being #an artist and creator for it. but this isn't worth it so i'm calling quits for good #i can't be a part of a site where this is the accepted culture. even casually #seeing my work and characters like this is nauseating #and for what. just assholes proving that they have the ability to be assholes #this is toddler “mommy told me i can't smash this window but i'm gonna do it just to prove i can get my way” behavior #i'm so tired #i'm not censoring usernames fuck these people for life #i will be fine in a few hours but for now i'm feeling like shit

The 1st time I watched all of tos Turnabout Intruder was my favorite episode. Despite the pretty intense sexism and crazy shatner acting, I just find the idea really compelling.

#also i lov that its an episode that calls out spock and jims special relationship and bc jim is a woman at the time leonard nemoy is #touching the actress in ways he would not touch shatner so it makes their relationship come off as more intimate than usual #and again the sexism is really bad but bc the writing is kinda deeply flawed its only more compelling to me. like the ending is kinda dark #and weird bc they kinda put Janice's hysteria on her being a woman rather than being a damaged person. so in the end she confims #that she is unfit for command. is physical overpowered by a man. treated like and child. ans sent off to some mental hospital for care #while the men in power on the enterprise shake their heads and say. if only she could have been satisfied in her womans body. without #addressing how its pretty fucked that woman cant b starfleet captains. like. thats a pretty unsettling and weird ending. it makes me feel #bad and thats why i like it so much. but im a freak like that so idk #star trek #tos #spirk #spock #james t kirk #also. i shoulf have spent more time making this look nice but i fucked upbthe colors #but i dont wanna redraw again. i cant get the proses right #poses look weird
