cordelia could be so interesting if y'all would stop playing her as self-righteous

#like imo she works a lot better when she's played as a bit neurodivergent #rather than someone whose moral compass is so strong that she refuses to play into lear's game #she's not out here refusing out of moral imperative #she just isn't comfortable with the fakeness of it all. and isn't comfortable with essentially having words put into her mouth #for her to describe someone as what they want to be described as vs what she would genuinely want to say #idk idk I'm watching a production right now #and cordelia's actress is annoying me so much #I have this constant complaint about this one specific interpretation of cordelia #which nearly every production does #please just make her very genuine/sincere instead of The Morality Police #king lear #shakespeare

Femme Fatale Guide: Office Essentials Every Woman Should Own

A sturdy, sleek tote that fits your laptop but isn't too bulky (with at least one closable interior pocket)

Laptop, AirPods/earbuds, portable charging system for phone/laptop

Laptop stand (changes the game, tbh)

Protective laptop case/sleeve

A planner and a black pen/another color pen for marking up your notes

Another notebook/pad for random notes or a running to-do list

A pen cup holder

A ziplock of hair-ties

Disposable toothbrush, Listerine strips, and travel-sized container of floss picks

A discreet feminine hygiene pouch or two with at least 2 products in it (you can use the additional pouch for extra underwear to be safe, honestly)

A simple, easy to zip and clean makeup bag

Lip balm

Hand cream

Vaseline/Aquaphor/Homeoplasmine

Mini stick antiperspirant or deodorant wipes

Travel-sized tweezers

Lint roller

Hand sanitizers

Disposable Shout wipes/stain remover stick

Travel-sized container of antibacterial and baby wipes

Band-aids

A pair of nail scissors

A mini nail file

Small sunscreen that doesn't leave a white cast

Travel-sized hair brush

A pigmented lip color (or two)

Compact powder

Portable stick cream blush/brusher

Eyeliner/mini mascara

Eyebrow pencil

A snack pack or two of a protein-rich, plant-based snack (roasted edamame, roasted chickpeas, lupini beans, almonds, or Feel Protein bars are great options because they're portable and keep you full in a pinch without forcing you to reach for something unhealthy/not filling when you need to eat – you can also carry some freeze-dried fruit to pair alongside it if desired)

Pouch for keys, wallet, IDs, etc.

Blue-light glasses (for long days in front of a screen)

💗 protect her smile 💗

#i enjoyed the latest season of cv nocturne MUCH more than i ever expected and i'm sorry #maria renard #castlevania nocturne #netflix castlevania #castlevania #netflixvania #castlevania netflix #like don't get me wrong i'm still more or less a h8r of most of netflix cv in general and even the previous nocturne season kinda #but i think this season nailed maria and i enjoyed it overall #which is crazy because last season i thought they had her all wrong #i see a desire for revenge as absolutely essential/fundamental to maria's character and i'm so glad an official cv product explored that #and also i was really impressed by maria's insanely anguished facial expressions as featured here #i'm not saying the season was perfect because i've seen criticisms from others that olrox's background was handled badly among other things #but i genuinely had a lot of fun watching it this time and i never ever ever expected that

"raising your prices and not giving old clients the old price is kiiiiiiiinda scummy :( bad business sense".

artists are just human beings trying to make a living btw also i want you to know i personally hate you

#supply and demand bros freak out when they find out that when you have demands you are at the mercy of the supplier #if you treat artists like large businesses who provide essential products grow up

to preface this post i am anti-advertising i think we should explode the entire industry but it's sooo funny when you people make posts like "and they don't even work!!" like. sorry to be the bearer of bad news but yes they do. that's why we have to put up with so many despite everyone hating them and thinking its annoying. because they actually work really well and make a shit load of money

#it actually would be way better if they didnt work and made no money bc businesses would abandon them #this isnt like stocks where everythings abstract and is essentially gambling (i dont understand stocks)#like ppl in the ad industry create things. that make a tangible and quantifiable impact on the business #which is then used in further ad planning. it is NOT all smoke and mirrors #like its fake in that the industry is not providing a necessary service the way like. grocery stores are #but its not the level of fake where everything is abstract like theres deliverables #moreover there is an extensive body of academic work specifically on how to make ads more effective #ALSO i think some of u views ads like. as if they have a win condition. which is you buy product #but in current advertising this is pretty rare and comparatively ineffective #which is why you see MANY ads which dont seem to be selling anything in particular. or which have nothing all to do with the product #the 'win' condition for THAT kind of ad is something more like 'viewers remember our name'#like. ex i would say ads for temu have not been effective on me bc i havent bought anything from them #but temu probably thinks they were SUPER effective on me because i talked abt them like 5 different times at work #and i do in fact know exactly what the company does and what they sell #and they were able to capitalize on the reputations of existing companies (wish shein etc) to build their own brand #good idea generator

I want to share my favourite mantra for executive dysfunction paralysis:

"Everything that needs doing will get done."

You don't have to decide the exact perfect order in which to do tasks, because they will get done. Even if you pick the wrong thing to prioritize, you will get both things done. Yes it may not be perfect and something may get done late, but it will all get done eventually.

This is not to say that things will just get done magically - you do have to do them. But this mantra helps me get unstuck from the paralysis point where I can't start unless I decide how to do everything. Most of the time you don't actually need to know how - you can just choose any task at random and start doing it, and keep applying that approach. And then everything that needs doing will get done.

#this boils down to my essential thing of 'just start'#things are almost always less scary when you start #study motivation #studyblr #productivity #text post #mental health #executive dysfunction #adhd

So, you wanna get that flushed or sun-kissed look? Here's the deal:

For that flushed vibe: Use a blush brush and swipe it across the top of your cheekbones, kinda blending up towards your temples. You can go for a light flush or build it up for a full-on glam thing.

If you're aiming for that sun-kissed glow, use your blush brush to draw a "W" shape, starting on one cheek, across your nose, and finishing on the other cheek. Then just blend it out.

Pro tip: A little blush goes a long way. Make sure to tap your brush against the blush pan before putting it on your face.

completely forgot i had written an LI!DOL!Vanida game mechanic and left her collecting dust on my google docs…

#. // ♡ 🌱 txt #vanida the idol #vanida thompson #my shayla…… im so sorry #i abandoned you…. i abandoned my girl……#which!!! like in dod #if vanida is a love interest #there would be a similar mechanic #but i think i’d probably change it to be a small mix of above #and a mechanic that if vanida catches you at work that she helps give you work tips #that helps double the income you make that day #but in turn making her run in encounters INCREDIBLY rare in rng so she’s like a lucky gold goose #because in dol where she is essentially the ‘handyman’ of town taking every job and helping anyone #to make money #in dod im gonna have her main source of income be her mail delivery job LMAO #to explain why she is constantly moving around all the time when she’s not in school #cause she does not stay still!!!!#she never will!#constantly a machine of productivity and extreme workaholic #if she is not doing something useful she gets ANTSY #but sorry rambling #yeah anyway #vanida’s dol mechanic is her themes being similar to rei in ng^#where there is this IMPORTANCE to her in the scheme of things #with so many important figures having eyes on her #and essentially the player tasked with balancing if they want to put to her to wolves or try to safeguard her for themselves #sort of thing #cause both can have its benefits

They're starting to get more meta. Feel free to send me better memes via asks.

Awesome coffee is so incredibly good. And 100% of the profit goes to charity.

#coffee company #who is a person #which is the case with all corporate social media #everything is made of people basically #even if capitalism attempts to elide the essential humanity of production

sometime between dead space (2023) and dead space 2, isaac recounts a dream where the line between the ishimura and isaac is blurred. was there ever a line to begin with?

the comic is up on itchio for free in PDF form + includes a bunch of in progress pics and extras (putting a few below the cut here :B). also my other dead space comic is up on itch as well!

#dead space #isaac clarke #cyrsed art #comics #i like the ishimura as a big rotting fish #systems shutting down etc but also providing an essential part of the ecosystem while it gets eaten/decays from the inside out :)#and idk about anyone else but the hive mind always reminds me of an antlion #not in appearance lol but being in that giant hole #anyway god this took a while!! i worked really hard on this!!#there's a bunch of details in here that took forever but probably dont' come across ghdlskfj #like all the graffiti on the wall #there's a dick that someone scratched off if you can find it lol #(tbh i don't think it's visible enough for people to see in the final product but it's there)#edit: i forgot to mention my headcanon is that isaac (and nicole) are big nerds about historical space ships #including the ishimura #9

I think it's a little too soon to be upset about $80 video games without knowing 1) the volume of playable content 2) the quality of the game 3) if this is partially affected by video games unionizing bc like. do we want to fairly compensate the people who work on these products, or do we want infinite-crunch unpaid OT shit for maybe twenty bucks less?

like. maybe it means you can only afford one or two really nice video games a year. isn't that better than cut corners and labor violations? until we know the actual end result and quality of the game, do we really want to send the message that cheaper is better?

and don't even get me started on how this price is almost certainly factoring in the proposed tariffs from the shithead-in-chief.

#like I get the YIKES to the price tag but like #video games aren't essential products and they're not cheap to make #also we can't act like the tariffs aren't going to be a factor in this price either so #instead of yelling at Nintendo USAmericans should CALL THEIR FUCKING REPS

watching the decameron netflix because I'm vaguely sort of medievalist and also because I want to see how handsome Amar Chadha-Patel can be.

#I love it when productions shrug and essentially say ''this person is related to that person. no questions at this time.''#I've watched too much opera to think that ''plausibility'' is any sort of casting criteria.#sometimes your 17yo naif is a thirty-something year old woman for whom ''rubenesque'' could be kindly applied.#this is fine! it's theater. get over it.#(.......a couple watches chada-patel wash strip off his shirt and bathe in a fountain and....well. it's correct. that's all.)

I need to save this pic. I have too many thoughts where this picture is very much needed.

It's from Overly Sarcastic Productions Journey to the West

Their artwork captures so many emotions. If i were to save all of my favorite expressions we'd be here all day.

#overly sarcastic productions #osp journey to the west #osp jttw #wukong and tripitaka #thoughbi feel like this essentially sums up a majority of their relationship on this journey XD when monkey isnt saving the monk
