A lady vampire may be forced to spend half her day cooped up inside a dark coffin, but that doesn't mean she shouldn't always look her best. After all, you never know when an unexpected snack guest might arrive. And if you see a spot or two of blood... well, that's quite frankly none of your business!

“My name is Norman Takamori. This is Skip. He makes excuses for my worst decisions.
He’s kind of lovable, isn’t he?”

I didn't explain this earlier when I was enthusing about taking some of my long service leave. I think it is just Australia and Aotearoa NZ that has it? But there might be other Commonwealth countries, too, I'm not aware of all of them. The basic idea is that if you work at a single place of employment for 10 years, you get 3 months of extra leave to take. It is my understanding that the historical basis was more or less implicitly colonial: here, it was first done in the 1860s so people could get on a ship and go back to Europe, from whence it was presumed they came and had family remaining.
Nowadays in my state you can access LSL on a pro-rata basis after you've worked somewhere for 7 years instead of 10 years. And unlike sick leave or annual leave or whatever, you accrue it regardless of if you're a casual employee. And if you've been working there long enough to have access to it, your employers have to pay it out at the end of your tenure!
I really like this concept and I'm glad it's been in federal legislation here for ages because... can you imagine trying to get that passed today? The brains trust at the Australian Financial Review would be carrying on like pork chops.
Australia usually loses out compared to European countries when we compare leave entitlements for employees. But I'm glad that at least there's, like, this idea embedded that if you give some company seven years of your life, they HAVE to give you this valuable thing, y'know? And sure, they could fire you at 6 years and 11 months... but if they've needed your work for the last six years, they'll probably need it again.

irt poverty/homelessness + alcohol use (esp with @butchfeygela‘s tags on my post)- people really underestimate the function that substance use/alcohol use can have for someone who is unhoused. being unhoused is boring, cold, painful, + lonely. substances can allow the 8 hours panhandling to get the $45 you need for a motel to fly by. alcohol reduces your perception of the cold + can knock you out whben you can’t sleep. substances can help you cope with the physical deterioration from malnutrition, constant stress, + sleeping outside. substances can provide social connection with others who you would otherwise not enjoy or help you cope with being alone.
not only that but- many unhoused people are stuck in a seemingly inescapable position. the pathway to financial stability or even housing is difficult or even impossible. in the wake of that hopelessness, the downsides of substance use start to seem insignificant. arrest? you’re getting arrested anyway for sleeping outside, peeing outside, standing in the wrong place, etc. physical danger? you’re already beat the fuck up, anyway, right? loss of relationships? you’ve lost most people already. inability to keep a job? nobody will hire you + you can’t stay employed, anyway, because you have no car + no shower.
perhaps for you or me, the cons of heroin use or binge drinking nightly greatly outweigh the pros. that isn’t the case for everyone. if we are really serious about ending overdose/addiction, we need to start looking at giving people lives worth recovering into instead of shaming them for their own hopelessness.

When Philza mentioned yesterday how he couldn't remember the last time he and Missa were on the server together (saying that Purgatory didn't count), I realized that the last time they were on the qsmp together was for the Mexican Independence Day celebration,
aka right before q!Philza got caged.
And I just. don't know what to think about that except maybe cry or something idk 😭
