I can be a merit-based hire, a DEI hire and a personality hire all at the same time. I'm an excellent 3-for-1 deal

”Are you an introvert or an extrovert? Do people energize you or drain you? Would you rather be at a party or a library?” Stop subscribing me to binaries. Social interaction is invigorating and makes my life better and I’m exhausted the whole time.
#'please invite me to the function. I'll be all tsundere about it' is killing me#op you are real for this

I Am Not Okay

BUT#i do kinda wish i could experience it again for the first time as an adult fully prepared to understand its themes#so happy for you OP.#take a break in Rivendell if you need it

#TWELVE#can you believe it????#in the last 10 years I've probably averaged one book every two years#i felt great about myself a couple years ago when i managed to read two#(Dune because i had a deadline; Northanger Abbey because i was sick and bored to tears)#(the previous year i think i read one: Howl's moving castle. which was a great choice. but I only did it bc i was sick)#i can hardly believe I've read TWELVE this year and i started in late May#i fell victim to the 'neurodivergent kid who devoured books to illiterate ADHD adult' pipeline#but they were right when they said the books would welcome me back when i was ready#the only way i can read is ebook it turns out. book on phone#I've hit kind of a wall lately where reading was stressing me out with the deadlines and such so I've used Libby's suspend hold feature#and I'm waiting to be ready again. hopefully soon#I'm literally thrilled that i have read this year#I've loved the experience. I've adored many of the books I've read#wait jk i started late March my bad i misspoke. anyway#it's been such a joy

A horrific shambling abomination is magically transformed into a human and the story treats this as body horror. It immediately falls over into the dirt because it isn't used to balancing on legs or having bones, It claws at its too-few eyes with too-blunt nails and screams in a voice that is utterly alien to it, the ever-present singing of the cosmos is silenced as its myriad senses dull to nothing.
And all of this is made worse by these things, these hideous things that have warped its form to match their own, telling it in condescending tones that they have saved it. That they are the perfect beings, the default beings, and that surely all creatures must long for their shape. That this is better than being what it was before.

Bro, we are cooked. The knight that dogs the prince's shadow like a dark and silent wraith just knelt to press his forehead to the prince's hand. Yeah, now he's uttering a prayer whose recipient is ostensibly God but in reality is the deified version of the prince that exists only in his mind. Aaand the prince just caressed his cheek to preemptively grant him absolution. I gotta... I gotta get out of here.

"God never gives you more than you can handle" is survivorship bias. People who got more than they could handle are dead.
#'God never gives you more than you can handle' is both not supported by scripture and arguably directly refuted by scripture#it's just a way to brush someone's pain under the rug#instead of doing the thing a true Christian should do and bearing up their burden with them in whatever way you can#God absolutely gives us more than we can handle alone because we as people are expected to support one another
