#I am nitpicky as fuck

frickin shite that was the worst small group I've ever been to in my life

[capn-twitchery]

i so badly wanna try doing a meme that i used to see circulating where people would send in one of their ocs + one of yours and you would draw them under the mistletoe

but i can't FIND IT!!!

will have to make my own post smh. have to do everything myself

[coockie8]

why are so many of your ocs super overpowered though??

Ever since I was a really little kid, I've been very frustrated with the fact we invented all these super awesome powers and concepts for story telling purposes, but then, somewhere down the line, decided we actually aren't allowed to use like any of them because it's "bad story telling", or some other such nonsense.

Like, no, if I wanna write an impervious, God-like character with a cheeky personality and barely addressed flaws that everyone loves, then I damn well will, and if you have a problem with that, then clearly you are not the target audience.

Not everything is for everyone, and some of you people seriously need to learn to make your peace with that.

Tell me WHY this place hasn't been using standardized date formats up until now so not only do I have the pre 1900 encoding problem to contend with but ALSO I have to deal with conflicting date formats meaning it's telling me a bunch of 1950s stuff is in 2050 like FOR FUCKS SAKE THE ISO FOR DATES EXISTS FOR A REASON I am going to have to manually check close to 5000 dates. And this is only the first (and relatively small) record set of maybe 900 records out of several dozen-thousand

Everyday I am astounded by the fact that this place has existed Like This for the last 25 years. I'm. I'm.... We're information professionals ffs. YOU LIVE LIKE THIS?????

Extremely relieved hours 🎉

So there's a new thing I'm supposed to do at work after the end of every month. Except part of the (oversimplified) task is to move Things from Folder A to Folder B, and I could NOT find Folder B to save my life. I've actually tried to do this task several times this month, got stuck, and bc I stupidly kept starting it around 4 PM (it was supposed to be easy!) there was never anyone online to ask about it, and then I'd forget.

It turns out the reason I can't find B is because I do not actually. have access to B. And now I do! So I can actually do this!

Fascinated with the fanfic I read where the junior officer reader insert character had a stateroom as her quarters on the Imperial Star Destroyer 😐

So rwrb adaption wasn't quite as horrific as I was expecting, there were a lot of my favourite moments from the book and in particular Zahra was impeccably cast.

Taylor as Alex did work better than I was expecting, I'm tentatively willing to admit I was wrong about him but Nick as Henry didn't work. The awkwardness from the book did not translate as much as it should've and the bleach blonde was super distracting and looked wrong.

Nora and Pez my beloveds were barely in it which was an injustice and I can't tell you how many times I screamed about June not being there. Rafael's absence was so felt as well.

Another major bugbear was Alex's parents not being divorced. I can accept Leo not being in it but a whole part of Ellen's character is being a divorcee.

Alex and Nora's dynamic felt all wrong too - their past dating life and making fun of it is so much of their relationship and she has to be the one he kisses at the new years party, it just isn't right that it was two random girls.

A lot of Alex's relatability comes from him being blind to his own sexuality - he had a fumble with a friend as a teen but it didn't mean anything, right? He is an Ally. Having the journalist ex cheapens it and makes his surprise at his bisexuality so much less.

I could nitpick with things like Amy's wife not being mentioned and Nora's attraction to girls being forgotten but if I started I would nitpick all day (where is Bea's party lifestyle?!?!?!) and nobody needs that.

So it was overall better than expected but so much (the quotes from the emails! Dear Thisbe, I wish there weren't a wall!) was missing that gave it the life and the uniqueness that makes the book so special.

We're super busy at work with some private files, which is a good thing because money and also it keeps my mind distracted from life, but also it's a LOT right now and with everything going on it's a bit overwhelming. I'm at least glad that my first few months at this job were pretty chill because if it was this crazy when I'd started it would have been a bad time.

Okay I love the fanart of TCFSV like its all fuckin lovely, but it weirdly triggers me when people just like forget Ranboo has black and white dyed hair or Tubbo having bleached hair with brown roots

[sundial-bee-scribbles]

I bitterly hate how the cave scene was handled in the show. Deeply in my soul. I’m gonna fangirl about Marisa all day long, but that doesn’t mean I don’t get to point out how ooc she’s being in the show. Alas, I guess we knew all along they’d never show the true barbarity and heinousness of Mrs. C.

trying to use that one method of solving a problem by thinking of it as if you were explaining it to someone else to sorta force a new perspective on it and going crazier and madder each iteration until im so devoid of any mental capacity i just stare blankly into the dark of my drawing tablet and die of spontaneous combustion and rising from the ashes like an integer overflow time and time again for as long as theres a fuel to change the variables
