I see your "Laios is trans" but that dude is THE most apathetically agender person on the planet. Laios does not have time for gender. Laios does not even HAVE a gender identity, he removed it to make room for more Monster Facts.

U.S. conservatives always talk about creating jobs but get SO MAD whenever anyone mentions banning prison labor like imagine the insane ammout of jobs that would be created literally overnight if companies in your country had to actually employ people instead of using slave labor from people that got caught with weed 10 years ago.

the first state park job I ever had was really whacky because I was finishing up my associates degree volunteering at one state park for the guy who happened to do all the hiring for all the other parks in the whole state.

so days before graduation, when a seasoned naturalist pulled out of his position just weeks before the season started, the head of hiring was in a bind and asked me if I’d take the job bc well, he knew me and I was there and the park happened to be 20 minutes from my hometown. I said of course without truly understanding the scope.

I ended up completely in charge of the interpretive programming for two nearby state parks, with basically zero supervision. Think about any activity you’ve ever done at a state or national park—guided hike, nature walks, art, outdoor skills, paddling classes, archery, fishing programs, school field trips—that was all on me.

Once a month I would report all of my programs and attendance to the powers that be at state headquarters and hear nothing back. I just assumed I was doing a good job because I wasn’t fired.

I had as much fun as I did stress but you can imagine the pressure I felt & I was way more uptight than usual.

So when I made a mistake, I could really panic.

Once I tried to email a monarch butterfly specialist to ask him to come speak at one of my parks, and I accidentally emailed some man in an totally different country instead.

I had introduced myself as the park naturalist and he replied, “I’d love to see some “Naturalist” photos of you ; )”

I really panicked bc in my head I somehow figured that IT would read this exchange on my state park email and somehow conclude I was offering nudes internationally, so I responded something like, this was the wrong email NEVER CONTACT ME AGAIN!!!!!!!! (but very formal)

And he got back with a photo of the sunset outside his window and said, verbatim, bc I will always remember this, “Mallaidh Anne….relaxation….There are more things between heaven and earth. And our fates…”

It was somehow so mystifying that all the anxiety just evaporated from me. It made such little sense it completely neutralized the situation.

To this day whenever my sister and I are stressed because we don’t know what the fuck is going on we look at each other and say, “and our fates………..”
