Kagiso - my first boa I'm 100% keeping as a perma. I think the new love/affection genes are really cute so I treated myself to a little guy. I'll have to figure out what his lore is going to be later

I'm still BLOWN away at how much of a coincidence it was that I went for an interview at JK comic book school ... idk around 2009, i took my portfolio with a comic i made of Robin vs. Robin fighting each other on gotham rooftops only to have batman interrupt and force them to stop. To then, months later, read Red Robin #14 on the stands and see a very similar fight. 😂 I guess my line of thinking at the time was very similar to what the writers were going for. Cause it never left my mind for years how similar it was. I was very, very young at the time, so I had a range of emotions but mostly confusion (and ok, maybe a hint of anger because I avoided Red Robin and Tim). These days, I suppose I was just in tune with them. And maybe I needed a bit more confidence in my ideas since professionals had similar ones. It took me years to appreciate tim as a character and sit down and finally enjoy Red Robin.
But look, Im only thinking about this because I lost a bid to buy all the Red Robin issues. I hate u random person who made it go all the way to 132 dollars. Yesterday, it was 46 dollars. U dick.

but . you must understand that I'm not saying "poor/middle/working class are that way (not rich) because they manage their money poorly" I am saying that is specifically my dad's case...
like. he's not bad at making money but whenever he makes any he impulsively spends it on bullshit. around the time I was born he squandered literally $30,000 because he looooves gambling with the stock market
there are definitely much better and more secure ways he could've invested that....

Giant personal vent time
This guy stole somewhere between 3 to 6 MILLION dollars from my grandmother by conning my great aunt into signing over her estate and medical & financial power of attorney to him literally on her death bed
I and my aunt have been working basically a whole second job the last 3 months trying to get together a legal case to go after this guy. And now my grandma wants to drop it. And no one else has standing so what the fuck can we do.
This man has absolutely done this to other ppl before, there is no doubt in my mind. I’ve seen his property records for just what’s publicly available in my county and it’s sketchy as hell. I am never going to get over this but there’s nothing I can do.
Gonna put like a million more thoughts in the tags because I’m losing my fucking mind.

I feel this was totally deserved because the number of times Marius mentions Sybelle and Benjamin in Blood & Gold is... literally zero. As with all things TVC there's a comedic interpretation of that alongside the pretty literal read [for the period Dead Gods' Thunder covers], which is that he does not give one iota of a shit. Doesn't know them, doesn't care. They're for Armand.
(Of course, The Vampire Armand barely mentions Daniel so this isn't exactly unprecedented stuff lol.)

i have to come to terms with the fact that I am actually well off for someone in this country now, like.. idk it's weird
i'm still living the exact same lifestyle that i was before, so for the most part it feels almost like nothing has changed, like maybe im spending a little bit more money on food and buying the "good" toilet paper, but all that does is allow me to actually have savings in my bank account
i still stand with the working class and impoverished people of this country, and I am very much still in the boat of "one [very] bad day from homelessness" so i am not taking this for granted whatsoever
i've just been watching some of those youtube channels where they interview random people all over the country and just like.. kinda show what their life is like and it's definitely putting mine in perspective
very very grateful for the opportunities i have had and very proud of myself for forcing myself to stay in college (even tho it took almost 10 years to finish and left me with a mountain of debt) and just like.. idk, i feel like i could be doing more to help people out, i can't wait til im out of debt ;o;

it is SUCH a banal and pedestrian sort of catholic guilt complex mixed with parental trauma but "if you got to enjoy doing something it's not real work and you don't deserve to be paid" is like. a cool and fun line of thinking that ensures my eternal misery in life under late stage capitalism
