still so so mad from last week when i went and looked up a linen shirt i thrifted for like ten bucks, to see if i could get a couple more since it’s comfortable as hell and durable, only to discover that it is a HUNDRED AND EIGHTY DOLLARS bought new.
#i just wanted comfy shirts!!!!!!!#but no we live in a capitalist hellscape!!!!#chatterbox tag#im gonna see if i can find more secondhand ones#or some other more reasonably priced brand#im fully converted to linen though bc this shirt is SO good and just the right weight

Prayer circle, please, that I get through the night without almost vomiting, not have chills and a fever, and am actually able to sleep.
Mostly because last night was terrible, but also because I have meetings I can’t skip.

[[this is a fic idea i'm currently fleshing out. i haven't written anything substantial in a loooong time but i'm trying to gain some momentum/motivation to write this🤞]]
A canon/fix-it [kinda?] story - Clarke and Lexa share a painful, unresolved history. Time has passed since they last saw each other, but echoes of their bond still haunt them both. Their story is one of deep longing, unspoken words, and the agonizing weight of silence.
#in terms of stages of development this fic is a zygote#okay maybe it's an embryo#i have a rough outline for a 4 chapter story#and now i have this moodboard and synopsis#are y'all ready for some angst#you can thank me getting 2 snowdays from work for this#clexa#also since when does canva murder the quality of your project unless you pay for the premium version? we live in a capitalistic hellscape

I took a piece of art from my journal like, 2 years ago, and re-did it digitally bc it has been feeling ESPECIALLY POIGNANT LATELY.
#ro talks#art#line art#self love#you're here for more than that babes!!#you're not here to be attractive and demure and unobjectionable to others#your main value is not how young you look or how closely you mirror what is on the media#there is fucking more to life than anti aging#than going to work every day just to make ends meet#than constantly fighting your body because you think it should take up less space#take it from someone who had to stare her own mortality in the face#when that time comes#you aren't going to be wishing you were just a little prettier or a little smaller or had paid all your bills#you're going to wish you'd had more time with your loved ones#with your friends#your family#your pets#your hobbies#i know we live in a capitalist hellscape and you can't just#opt out#you have to work to pay bills and all that#but don't let it be your whole world#you're worth so much more than that#take care of you first#fuck the ideal body or face#fuck your boss#(not literally please)#take! care! of! you!!!!!

"art should have soul" "real artists dont shill out bc they have souls" hey. heyy. hitting you with a stick. shut up. i have dadaism on the phone right now you better come up w an explanation quick on how you would determine whether or not something has "soul"
#you could say anything but there will be art out there that you think has a lot of soul but the artist just really dgaf. and vice versa#this isnt even a defense on ai art people have been saying this shit about art thinking there's a be all end all to what you can call 'art'#marcel duchamp is having a laugh in his grave rn#some of you are real close to saying that modern art isnt real bc you dont like it. and that it shouldnt be made#chixtalks#just woke up from a long nap and something pissed me off. as per usual#oh and the real artist not shilling out thing. thats not bc they dont have souls. could care less abt that.#its bc we live in a (drumroll) capitalistic hellscape dumbass. thats why.

I love the internet, there is a neigh endless amount of tutorials and references from which I can learn art, from the fundamentals to more complex things like perspective, anatomy and the like
But I fucking hate the internet because All these fucking companies are just using ai to make shitty slop and people eat it up instead of making use of the vast resources it provides, seriously every day I log on here I lose more and more of my faith in humanity
#ai bros talking about some 'aI mAkEs ArT aCcEsSiBle'#art IS fucking accessible bitch if you have a pen/ pencil a piece of paper and an internet connection you can fucking learn#you think i got here overnight by dome god-bestowed magical powers?#no bitch i picked up a pencil when i was 10 and decided not to put it back down for the next 6 almost 7 years#fucking PewDiePie learned how to draw in like 3 months of dedicated learning#youtube is fucking free#damn#and it makes me sad too#art is the staple of humanity#through history people made art. they drew. they made sculptures. they sang and danced and played music and lived#but we live in a capitalist hellscape that wants to strip us of everything that makes us human#what is art if not an expression of man's very soul?#what is man without art?#dont mind my rambling#im just venting#lowkey doing better in my life actually. been getting better grades and shi#just a last little bit of frustration i needed to dump from my brain#personal insanity#personal stuff#art

Mike is my brother-in-law! He recently had a life threatening stroke and now has a long road of recovery ahead of him. It would mean the world if you could share/help out. Thank you!

me: i am wildly irritated at absolutely everything in the world all of the time, i want to throw every device that connects me to the outside world off of a fucking cliff, and my life is collapsing in on itself with the force of a jenga tower made of gold bricks.
my boss: so... you're not prepared for the meeting?
me: i am prepared to cry, sir.

"you know why doomsday cults are always wrong? because the world keeps turning, and things get better. giant world ending disasters don't happen and people don't want it to happen, they work diligently everyday and every hour to make sure it doesn't. the world won't burn to ashes, and even if it does saplings and flowers will bloom from them. the world keeps spinning, and day turns to night. if billions of years can't destroy us all then a couple stress filled decades won't either. we will all make it through to the next generation and life, wether our memories or friends or grandkids do. life won't end, the doom isn't real. and well either way wars, famines, hurt and pain, we all get through it eventually. it's, it will be okay. maybe we die before it is okay but it will be okay soon. at least for our friends, our families, our children and lovers, our animals or our trees. it will be okay, it always is." -pop
#-pop#anticapitalism stuff#anarchism stuff#activism stuff#bro literally we live in a age of unprecedented advancements#ppl live longer now. we live in a capitalist hellscape but that will change at some point#like. things do get better. even from my childhood to now things have gotten better#I don't feel the gut wrenching terror of being disabled anymore#I can actually fucking believe there's a future now#it took me many long long years but I found it#I can believe in a future an actual real future#hopepunk#also fr doomsday cults have never been right ever#if this shit was an actual real thing the actual doomsday it would have happened long long ago#like 1300s long ago#so yeah things are gonna be okay

Not to be one of those guys but WHY can't I take my 5 month old dog into the grocery store????? You can take your screaming baby???? My puppy is just as small, just as baby, honestly he's quieter than most babies, he smells about as much as the average baby, he produces less goop on average than a baby!!! Please I am just one gremlin with one tiny four legged child and I can't leave him in the car bc it's hot and I can't leave him in the crate at home bc he's been in the crate literally all day while I was at work!! Which I already feel terrible about!!! Come on!! How am I supposed to get groceries or any of the other things!!! I get it some ppl are afraid or allergic but im not letting him clobber people in stores!! He is 10 whole pounds okay he is literally smaller than some babies
#most of the time I just take him in the grocery store!!#but previously I had friends and coworkers living here and we'd go to the store together#so I could put Wes in one cart and we could put food in another#but now it's just me and the spring team is gone#and I should just crate him and run to the store#but the store is 45 mins away#then I have to Get Groceries#and then drive back#it's like 3-4 more hours in the crate#and no one is here this week to come hang out with him#and my emergency fill for my meds is in at the pharmacy so I HAVE to go this evening#bc I'm 2 days cold turkey on a med you shouldn't be cold turkey on#but the fucking insurance and the fucking mail order requirement and then they fucking sent it to the wrong fucking state#guys ik this is my period talking and I am sorry if you're reading this far pls ignore me#but holy shit it's time to give up I think I should move to a town or a city and get a desk job doing something simple for 8hrs a day#something with health insurance and benefits and stability and a nearby community#so what if I love teaching people about nature#our stupid capitalist hellscape was not built for people without a permanent address#not for seasonal workers not for folks who move around not for homeless folks it's all stupid everything is bullshit#I love my dog why did I get a dog who said I could handle this#he has so much energy and I have a migraine and I have to drive an hour to get my meds#and he's just grabbed his water bowl again and is dancing around the apartment with it#there is water all over the kitchen#and all my friends just left for the end of season#and I'm on my period and I'm tired and I'm sleepy and I need groceries and medication and he is so antsy#he's been in the crate basically all day I don't blame him#I want to go home and be small and let my mama fix it#my kitchen looks like a bomb went off again there are dishes everywhere and#I think someone is coming to live in here for a week in like next week maybe??????#so idek what to do about that

I hate when a client you really liked starts spouting bullshit. Today, I had one tell me she was going to a craft show at the library…which, like, amazing. Local library usage ✅ supporting local artists ✅ getting cool stuff from people charging their worth and not being exploited and putting that money back into the local economy instead of giving it to a large corporation ✅✅✅
No. She just wants her money to go to AmericansTM and NOT “the communist Chinese”…her words…
I seriously want to cry. For six and a half years, I’ve always loved seeing her in the bank and now???
#my villain origin story#and I know I’m not a ‘perfect consumer’#it’s impossible to be one in this capitalist hellscape we live in but DAMN#how do you get the right solution from all the wrong reasons

they raised my phone bill like. 5 whole dollars. never said anywhere that they were doing this, never emailed or anything! wtf??? bro, I already pay for a fucking bring your own device MINIMUM EVERYTHING, which includes LIMITED CALLING on a god-damned IPHONE 6. I am NOT paying more money for that shit.
#observation logs#I know we live in a capitalist hellscape but surely raising the price of a plan without notifying the user is not allowed#like it's ridiculous that I have to pay nearly 40 dollars as it is for no data limited calling on a device I fully own#go fuck yourself how about that#I would get rid of this service entirely if it were not forced as a necessity in our dog shit miserable society
