#Sarah goes to work

[phantasieandmirare]

The janitor at work told me that apparently the administrative ladies have been bitching behind my back because I shut my door and I almost wanted to tear through the building and open everyone’s door to make a goddamn point but I held it in

Genshin characters age headcanons masterlist (updated)

Yeah. I could give you many reasons why I believe some of the more debatable/"controversial" ones are very sensible and Good based on just freaking paying attention to context given in the game but for now I'll just compile a basic list.

all things considered i still actually have tmc aus that i want to create drafts for …… psf may be its own thing now but ill be damned if im not still autistic about tmc ^_^

like i don’t know how much i’ve talked about my slime rancher au but it is like Always on my mind ok . ok,? my favourite concept is just that cesar got in an accident years prior and had to like, fuse with a tarr slime to keep himself alive. and now he’s allergic to water. that’s so crazy and i need to figure out how to replicate the slime rancher art style so i can draft up some designs

something something growing up poor something something cosplay and crafting being expensive and also high-risk when you start out something something the thought of messing up and wasting money almost makes the entire process not worth it something something

[olivias-library]

kudos to these new(ish) covers which got me to read the series after 10 years of judging a book by its (old) cover

ignore the missing problem children, i have to go back for them

[quietwingsinthesky]

i have many many thoughts about rose & tentoo and how their relationship would evolve in this verse. about how you can't just take the love you have for one person and put it on someone else. not even a clone, a regeneration, a metacrisis. about how that doesn't mean you can't love them, or that you can't fall in love with them the same way, but that love has to be for them.

[coffeeandcalligraphy]

that lyric in athena by greyson chance where he goes "I don’t want to be the man I was / I want to jump into the innocence of your touch / fall into your ocean hands / pick me like a cherry blossom in Japan" is lonancore btw

[ofhope]

“But he hurt you worse,” was his only line of defense as he finally let their eyes meet, “The-the guy that I thought was a hero, I can’t… be sad over anything else. I shouldn’t be, because he was, is, a horrible man, a monster, and - I looked up to him. I wouldn’t have met you if it wasn’t for him. I, I wouldn’t have joined Burning Rescue, I wouldn’t have helped you saved the world, if it weren’t for him. Everything I did, I did for him. So, why?” if Galo had detected the waver in his voice, he hadn’t made an effort to show it. “Why didn’t he want me around?”

Was that it, then? The source of it all? What lie at the center of his entangled, unexpressed emotions? Galo hadn’t meant to continue, only wanting to leave it at five simple, nevertheless painful, words, but Lio had always been good at that – seeing through him, reading him as easily as he might the many books pertaining to law that sat unfinished beside their coffee table. His eyes felt wet and gross, and he didn’t want to talk, but now it looked as if he couldn’t stop. Galo rested his forehead atop Lio’s shoulder, snaked an arm around his waist, and pulled him tight against his chest. 

“Maybe there was something - something I could’ve said, or done. Maybe if I had found out earlier, back when he was working with Deus, I could’ve convinced him not to. Or just… something, anything, to prevent all of this, all of the suffering he caused, but… I couldn’t. He wouldn’t have listened, anyway. He hated me from the moment he got stuck with me. And I keep thinking back to when I got my first medal, and I was so happy, because I finally did it. I finally did something he was proud of,” Galo didn’t wish to recount the reasoning for the medal. “But he wasn’t. He never was, and nothing I did could’ve ever made him proud of me. I don’t know why that makes me so sad.”

I had a pretty interesting dream that I started writing critical ish essays for this blog, y’know actually using it kinda like a blog for not just my art. And this might just be because of how many video essays I have on all the time in the background but like…. I Was missing the kinda writing I used to do in college lately…….

[phantasieandmirare]

Spent all yesterday setting up the book fair (not done yet either) and then had an absolutely awful nightmare that I got to work and someone had put it all away essentially undoing something like seven hours of work and I don’t know what that’s supposed to mean but I didn’t like it!

[xjumbled-up-brainx]

[semercury]

I want to stream again but I'm afraid of people judging me or saying something stupid or people hating me over some little misspeak or something, which is unfortunate bc one of the reasons I started streaming was to challenge my fear of people judging me or saying something stupid or people hating me over some little misspeak or something.

Marja is trending on twitter and it amazes me that it took y’all 3 seasons to realize she’s a flop who doesn’t know what she’s doing with this show or these characters

I, however, have been a day one Marja-Loser Ryan hater

Why must people use my stories for their own gain and not even have the decency to ask me first? 🥴

[phantomrose96]

Okay I have a story.

So my birthday is this Sunday (May 26th). My mom ordered some presents for me but one of them (an Etsy purchase) was seemingly stuck in transit and might not make it on time. I tell my mom all good, no worries. She gets in contact with the seller. After a long delay in response they get back with "Right we'll fix it!" It ships, tracking label and everything, good to go! ETA May 22nd (yesterday.)

During the work day I check the tracking and it says it's been delivered in/at mailbox! I double check with my mom "hey, is it mailbox size?" because if not, I don't want it sitting at the front door where anyone walking by could snag it.

She says "it's definitely NOT mailbox size." Okay. I text my neighbors in the building "Anyone seen a package delivered? It's a birthday gift from my mom and I wanna make sure it gets inside!" Success! Floor 2 David (not to be confused with Floor 1 David) had brought it inside. Inform my mom. All good!

I stop by home briefly around 4pm, because yesterday was hot-hot and I just installed my window A/C that morning in the living room, and according to my cat cam my stupid cat hasn't spent a single second in the climate controlled living room and is, instead, voluntarily baking herself elsewhere so I'm like "great" and hop on my bike to go home (10 minute ride) to check on her.

I get in the building door. Patches is crying from the top floor because she heard me. I maneuver my bike in the front hall. The ugliest fucking 6-foot-tall cat tree(?)/totem(?)/statue(?) I've seen in my entire life is just. Standing there.

My first thought is "What the fuck is that." My second thought is "Oh fuck that is for me." I look around at the floor in case there's perhaps anything else that might, in fact, be the gift.

No. Me and Cat Pole.

It's taller than me. I turn it around to face me and its face is painted and this is, in fact, uglier than it looked from the back.

Um.

Patches is crying. So I just haul it up to my level. MAYBE it was supposed to come with twine that I wrap around it (and hide its face from the world) for Patches to scratch. Maybe this is a prank. Maybe this is an inside joke, because when my mom moved into her current house the neighborhood gifted her some ugly-as-hell totem that apparently, by tradition, each newest-comer to the neighborhood is required to have and display in their window so maybe this is a very good riff on that.

Patches rubs against it. She's not afraid of this horrid facsimile of her kind.

Great.

Meanwhile SHE'S fine and the condo is a little toasty but totally liveable so I'm like "Good, cool, you're not baking. You're having a good time. Enjoy your new sister, I guess, I'll see you later."

I go back to work because this is a problem for later me.

After work, after my run, after whatever, I get home and it's like 8:00pm and Patches is so happy to see me and the totem pole is still just. There.

I text my friends like "so a bday gift is here from my mom and it's the Biggest Ugliest cat pole I've seen in my life. Is this a bit? Did my mom go 'that's so ugly haha! send!' Maybe she genuinely found it cute. How do I navigate this." My friend Sarah has the good advice to maybe text my mom neutrally like "Got the cat pole!" and feel the waters whether my mom is like "Isn't it ugly? 😂" or "Hope Patches likes it! 🥰"

My mom goes to bed early so I don't do any of that yet. Problem for tomorrow me.

This morning, Patches wakes me up for breakfast. I get her situated and I'm staring at the fucking Cat Pole again. I wonder if my Mom's been wondering all night what I thought of it.

I take a picture. I text her.

Okay.

I get on call with my mom. I ask for clarity that the ungodly horrid thing is NOT my birthday gift and is in fact a mix-up from the seller who sent me this instead of my actual gift. She's wheezing between words. She thinks I'm being too charitable for the amount of Absolute Fucking Ugly this is. I have to gently talk her out of using the word "monstrosity" while messaging the seller asking what the hell happened here.

I tell her I need to apologize for harming her dignity with Floor 2 David, who thinks this fucking thing is my mom's idea of a great birthday gift for her to-be-28-year-old daughter.

My heart goes out to the poor soul who did actually order this cat totem and is lacking it on this lovely day.
