overstated sentiment perhaps. but the point of it all is sitting in a bar with your friends

#literally whenever im just sitting in a bar with friends i'm like i think this is it. i don't think there's really much beyond this #everyone's a mess rn it's everyone's worst week one friend's moving in 4 days one friend's stretched SO fucking thin #all of us have like a 0 per cent shot at academic success and all of our phd contracts are running out #but like. when i a certified weirdo freak am like can we please toast to my dead wife izzy hands. they're like girl absolutely #maybe it's all not so dire #breisgau hochschwarzwald gothic

I wrote a whole FIVE HUNDRED WORDS. This is a miracle. Maybe tomorrow I will finally write the last fucking scene in this section so I can move the fuck on.

#but for real. if I can do this maybe I can show it to people and engender some additional will to write again.#I am also almost done with all of the assignments I can do!#actually that's not true I have two more I can do but idgaf.#one's pretty simple and the other is a final project and I don't wanna do it yet.#anyway. I love my dumb wizard kids. they're so stupid. they're riding the lightning right off a cliff.#megs is writing #a little bit! for real!!! :D #it's fucking dire out here folks. truly dire.

Took a DnD alignment quiz and got true neutral and my brother was like “huh. I thought you’d be chaotic good,” and I’m like “sure, to YOU, but basically everyone else can go fuck themselves,” and really, I think that demonstrates how accurate the test is.

#I think a lot of people who test as Good TM are liars lol #or naive #which also maybe proves the accuracy of the test #but I seriously I got this from a bunch of gamers who tested as Good #and I think the ability to save scum in games gives people false ideas of what they’re capable of #like all this discourse about the emperor and him not letting himself be mercy-killed #as if he should have laid down and died and these people think they would have in his place #nah #self-preservation is such a base instinct people forget #I don’t think you really know yourself until you’ve been in dire circumstances #and well honestly I’m glad a lot of people haven’t #but I think people will surprise themselves in the moment by how selfish they can be #maybe that’s why I judge myself so much lol #but I guess I’m proud of myself too bc while I may not sacrifice myself for a cause #I stood between my father and my brother far too often at the risk of my own safety #and between my ex and his kid #they were worth it #but the rest of the world?#that’s asking a lot I’m not willing to give #especially since I don’t live in high fantasy lmao #morning rambles #I’ve been thinking a lot about morality recently #no wonder I got obsessed w bg3 recently #its themes line up with my recent ruminations so well

Cash app IS USA only. Do you have a kofi?

Similar issue as before, I cannot get money out of it unfortunately. I will make a more detailed post tomorrow when I'm not crouch3d over my phone with thid tiny keyboard I can't type on but basically. No bank account so can't get money out of paypal. Need money to make bank account and someone else to drive me. You can see my problem.

#I Can get money out of cashapp because I do have ag least Some cooperation but also shit is unreliable and sometimes it is a matter of waiti #and trying not to go insane abiut it #if you are outside the US don't worry aboht it! I do have plans stuff is not dire yet ♡#Like despite the darkness growing in my heart I am confident that I cam pull stuff together and I have people I know it just so happens #we're all broke atm #Once I get bank account I will feel less desperate because it means I can like #start getting more commissions from people AND maybe start selling stickers

october is coming. which means, of course, that it is time for the horrors. tfw the dream self must confront the Nightmare Self

#body horror //#homestuck #YES i am invoking tarot symbolism and YES i have reasons for choosing the cards i did and YES i AM just making things up as i go. im normal #symbolism runthrough real quick. consider this an Artist's Statement of sorts.#The Tower: ambition built on a flawed premise. guy who always thinks he knows better than you in dire need of a wakeup call #strength: the journey of the self vis a vis finding the courage to act & tapping into latent potential that always existed #& simply needed to be accessed. note: dirk in this card is brain ghost dirk specifically.#(an illusion constructed by jake because he didn't believe in his own repressed abilities - drawn here as The Horrors.)#the devil: you are maybe not the CAUSE of all of your problems but DAMN you are making them worse for yourself.#this card is SO heavy on unhealthy coping mechanisms. symbolism here - very literally holding self down #sure it feels comforting in the moment but eventually you are going to drown.#the chariot: this one's not super clear visually but i do have a method to my madness #the chariot is the card of willpower; control; forward motion; resolution.#by the same token i think it is also a card about being really really stubborn - blinded by a goal.#holding onto the reins and refusing to let go even when holding them hurts you & others around you.#honestly i think some of the minor arcana fit better for a few of these cards but i wanted to stick w majors #for the sake of Icon Recognition i guess.#anyway [putting the alpha gang in the Narrative Wiggler to work through their problems]#they are going to the Dream Realm to meet their weirdest selves (and friends) in combat. unless...?#(it was never about fighting it was about healing. SYMBOLISM)

For the record I do genuinely believe I experience reality with waaayy less intensity than other people because I'm always somewhere else but honestly we move

#diary #last year while sitting alone in the uni courtyard it suddenly felt like everything was Real and I was part of it #and the dread I felt is still unmatched. That day is the closest I've ever come to killing myself oh it was DIRE #I only worry about this cause I do care about those around me I just don't understand them at all #I HAVE been gaining sentience little by little though so there is hope. Maybe. Guy who starts becoming a person in his 20s. Etc.

lord please forgive me i am getting into fights in tiktoks comments again

#teeth.txt #IM SORRY i have no self control #also i feel justified bc the initial post was a trans guy asking 'if theres a reason why some trans women are so nasty to trans men'#and i was like. it's transmisogyny. and the op hasn't replied but it didn't go over super well with the other trans guys in the comments #ACTUALLY what's even worse is that my comments have gone over fine like nobody has been mean or unendingly stupid (a little stupid tho)#but the trans girl who said pretty much the same things i did in a slightly less patient way is lowkey getting jumped #so. proving the point there guys.#god trying to have any sort of rational discussion in comments of anything but #especially the character limited tiktok comments is so evil #i would actually very much like to patiently explain this to you because i have the time and desire to explain my thoughts #but it's making it really hard when i can only get like 45 words in at a time #anyways there are a lot of people liking my comment(s) which makes me feel a bit better bc a lot of people agree but also it's dire in there #i should maybe just delete tiktok again. but then i will just go in instagram reels. which is worse tiktok.#alsooooo i forgot that The Algorithm on that damn app is crazy and i think maybe i just shouldn't have commented anything at all #bc i think me rapid firing 3 comments in a row on a post that had pretty low views actually just rocketed it #out on to other people's pages and now it has a lot more attention in general. which is lame bc it was a bad post which is why i commented.#aughhh

if you could change the outcome of any 3 motogp races (the outcome of the championship doesn’t change regardless tho) which ones would you chose?

one of those asks that immediately made me forget every single race I've watched in my life. it's a tough one, especially with the championship thing... I'm gonna add another criterion here and say nothing to do related to injury/death

so... I came up with one quite quickly, then got stuck, then came up with a second and got even more stuck. I'm quite reluctant to change any 'plot-relevant races' in the context of specific careers and rivalries, plus I'm ideologically opposed to stealing any win off a non-alien and giving it to an alien. which then kinda left me?? well. stuck. I don't like these picks but well maybe I'll come up with something better at some point

assen 2018: I simply could not come up with a third race so I'll just throw this one in. dovi + valentino really really should have gotten onto the podium in this race, those were extremely podium-worthy performances, it was such a deeply silly incident between the pair of them that took them out of podium contention. also it's still seen as a classic race and... I don't even begrudge the two beneficiaries for their podium, it's just one where the three best riders that day didn't end up on the podium and I would change that!! I don't even really care that much but also look I had a spot to fill. would've enjoyed the rancid podium vibes, it's what a race of that quality deserved

sepang 2018: just deeply annoying? like, I think it was a super impressive performance, the consistent lap times trick from a 78 year old was very neat, it was cute when jorge did unprompted valentino prop for metronome solidarity reasons, it's one of literally two premier class races where valentino crashed out of the lead so I don't even hold it against him. but... well, that one might have been building to a battle between marc and valentino, and it would've been fun to see that! not least because of location + relationship vibes in 2018. I'd change the result in preventing the crash, don't really care who wins after that point - hey, they can crash each other out if they want. I Just Wanted To See It

styria 2020: bit of a niche one but I remember being pissed off by this so I'm going with it - this should have been mir's win without the bloody red flag. now I'm very sorry that maverick was just having an abysmal time in austria, peace and love to him, I'd probably never step foot in the country again after the eight days he had in that country.... but still, his bike attempting to murder him did ruin what really should've been joan's first win. I'm very defensive of mir's win stats and I was supporting the title bid with zero wins agenda once that looked plausible, but now that he's just gotten stuck on one win for quite a few years... well, again, I do think it's kinda iconic but I'd also let him have two. and back then he wasn't even really looking like a title contender and was still going for his FIRST win.... I was feeling very sorry for him so. there

#//#brr brr #batsplat responds #the way I struggled with this you'd think I've never been upset by a race in my life #idk I do usually come around on most results for narrative purposes? like I can talk myself into vibing with most results #in THIS sport mind u in Certain Other Sports I've spent the last two and a half years screaming crying throwing up #anyway with the alien seasons I'd go with 'change all the technical regulations and start again' but that feels like a different question #I had a few where I was like 'well misano 2008 could've been more interesting if casey hadn't crashed'#or 'the 2009 title fight would've had a more exciting conclusion if jorge hadn't crashed phillip island 2009'#but like... both those mistakes are kinda interesting? also in that era there's no guarantee you'd actually get an interesting race #I had a moment where I was thinking 'oh but you could give sete a win post-2004' and... no? sorry but no #scrolled through all the results from 2000 to 2005 and went 'no these are all Perfect Actually'#I mean maybe I'd steal melandri's wins but that also seems incredibly petty. valentino levels of petty. can't do that #also was thinking mugello 2016 give valentino a functioning engine but that IS already a classic race so I won't touch it #or sachsenring 2012 would've been more fun if casey had not crashed but well. idk it's notable he DOES crash. kinda juicy #or silverstone 2015 marc's crash but to me 2015 is quantum locked like you can't really touch anything there #le mans 2017 pissed me off at the time but also. *shrug* whatever #jerez 2018 + catalunya 2019 were annoying because they ruined an already dire title fight picture #but I can admit how funny those were. especially catalunya #I do also think it's a little bit funny how jorge STILL gets shit over it like that one doesn't have an expiration date I fear #still gets referenced SO regularly. poor jorge

Seeing someone I follow post abt OC image counts and them showing clear favorites and now I wanna make a poast bc this is so funny to me always.

#ramblings #undescribed #i willllllll say i am so bad abt not getting art onto TH and was way worse abt it a few years back #so like. OK karl i know would still be in the lead by a long shot that sucker is 9 years old and has been consistently used aside from #like one kinda long hiatus. but if i actually went through the effort of uploading all of kaine's art i think it would also have a #gallery in the triple digits. idk if itd go that much past 100 but i used kaine a lot for a good while and theyre still my #most important human oc. kris should also have a larger gallery for similar reasons tho maybe not as big #SEA TOO sea was the sona i replaced karl with for a time b4 going back on that so she has a lot of art i havent archived properly #karls im being deadass i would not be surprised if it had 300-400 images its just hard to tell when i dont have a solid archive of stuff #like. 2017 and earlier. tho i do have my art off of our old desktop so thats something. its just unsorted #my final thing. im laughing my ass off that one of my gem ocs made this screenshot shout out to flame. my fucking Freak #this becomes worse when you know how many ocs i have in my toyhouse. its dire. i love collecting things thats all ill say

i am trying to find an app to make a dumb moodboard for my ocs bc i thought it’d be fun but every single app wants me to sell my soul to put pictures in a 3x3 grid

#hi Photo Collage Maker can I ask just one sec why do you need access to my contacts #it’s either asking for all my data or charging rent to Access Premium Features like a 3x3 grid and no watermark #this is such a simple thing. why. the internet was a mistake #it just shouldn’t be hard to find a functional app to do this that you don’t have to pay for this is not hard to make #which is incidentally why the situation is so dire but ¯\_(ツ)_/¯#maybe I just comment on the post of the person who inspired this in the hopes that they have one that Isnt This. if you see this later hi <3 #luke.txt

as a guy that loves getting into obscure media that like. maybe 5 people talk about now. it is interesting the difference between consuming media that is SUPER popular and everyone loves your fave (a curse i would never wish upon anyone. the posts will never be good) and a media that like. there is NO ONE actively posting about. it has barely any fan presence online. and honestly its kind of peaceful

#twist rambles #like. being into the wit/cher books and games and show (the good one. the hexer) was a hellish experience. there was such isnane shipping o #that old man everywhere. there were 5 million bad takes. there were ibs whump fics (which is a plus. more of those should exist).#and it was just like. 50 million incorrect characterizations of my faves. it made me a bit insane. but then irt vol/foss and gan/gsta #its like. peaceful silence. like gan/gsta actually well. has like a minor audience i just have a lot of the tag blocked bc racism is insane #esp when ur like wow ^-^ would love if this complexly written black character was treated half as nicely as the popular guy in that media.#it does not happen. but w vol/foss. there is NOTHING on ao3 (good for me due to loving to torture myself and friends w bad fanfic) and mayb #five posters in the tumblr tag. like NO ONE is really actively playing this that ik of. even on the jp side there hasnt been a ton of #interest for A DECADE. but its weirdly peaceful other than i CANNOT talk to anyone whos played it and go insane over how well its written #its so dire that ive contemplated emailing the person who made a rly helpful fansite back in. 2004 or earlier. and being like hi. thank you #nearly 20 years later lmao. like im glad both of those medias arent super popular BUT it does mean i rly have to make all the content for i #or pester chris for 5 million hours as im in the vol/foss agony mines. but all of that to be said. popular media is such a hellhole for fan #content most of the time. so its been weirdly nice to just be peacefully vibing. even w f/e im still on shadow dragon so its VERY like ok i #care abt this old man that everyone else doesnt like so i can just. peacefully exist.
