I have my psych testing tomorrow and apparently it’s supposed to winter storm fuckkkkk me

#it’s supposedly not starting until around noon and my testing starts at 9:30 #so I should be able to get there fine #but it’s the hours long testing so I’m probably gonna have to drive home in the thick of it #which WOULD be fine except it’s like an hour drive to and from the place #sigh #this is annoying #oh well #I’ve driven longer distances in worse blizzards it’s just like come on really #the one day I actually have to go somewhere that is a somewhat significant distance away?#and it’s important enough I don’t really have the luxury of rescheduling?#come on man #kaz rambles

Interesting convo about the suitability of Ancient Rome as a setting for historical romance led to the question of "If Ancient Rome not okay for historical romance setting, why Regency okay" (a good convo to have, imo), which then led to "Regency okay because we can say this duke was good to his servants which is an acceptable handwave; no acceptable handwave for Ancient Rome".

With the implication being that because the everyday exploitation is VISIBLE in Ancient Rome, whereas it's Off Elsewhere for the dukes (who benefited, let us be clear, from an empire based on slavery, indentured servitude, and colonialism, whether or not they WANTED TO), the dukes can get a handwave

And I find that. Pretty bad tbh.

#romance novel blogging #it's very 'well we can't SEE what's happening in india in the 1800s so it's fine'#let us be clear..... the handwave is almost always getting deployed at some point in historical romance #even in progressive historical romances #whether it's 'well my duke is an abolitionist' or 'well my duke is a feminist'#or simply the fact that your duke rakes around without protection and doesn't have the syph #and i accept handwaves ALL THE TIME as i think all historical romance fans do #and certainly i think there are settings that draw a line for me #but to me if you can't handwave ancient rome and come up with the one Not All Romans guy #then you can't do that for..... many other ancient societies i think authors should be able to write within #ancient egypt comes to mind #and frankly there are aspects of ancient rome that i think could be very beneficial for historical romance novelists to explore #such as the fact that a man of color could realistically be powerful in ancient rome #because the concept of race was quite different to say the concept of race in regency england #and i mean.... again i look to ancient egypt; are we not supposed to have variety in historical romance because the settings #make the primarily white audience uncomfy because they can't focus on the beautiful gowns versus the big colonialism?#i'm not saying i have my exact thoughts on this fully ironed out #but the concept of 'regency fun ancient rome not' because regency is OFF TO THE SIDE exploitation #..... I DON'T LIKE IT

the company i work for decided that its switching from the german formal "You"(Sie) to the informal "you" (Du) in all of our websites so now we have to scour the entire database to change it and i quite frankly hate that, not just bc the unecessary extra work but especially bc its such a weird and unecessary change

i bet its bc everything here is getting englishfied (both literally and culturally it feels like, when my new boss talks its half in english bc every second german word is just replaced by an english one despite there being perfectly fine words for it in german too, its so annoying) and bc they want to sound more personal in hopes of getting more clients bc 'company is your fwiend uwu!!', i know this here is the amercian tm site so you wouldnt understand really but i do not want to be greeted with 'du' by companies, no, thats too personal, you dont know me and im not giving you my data, stay away!!

i guess thats how i would describe it .. the formal you is like a polite distance, like someone you dont know staying outside your personal space, but when its the informal 'you' it feels invasive unless i told you you can call me that, and that goes double for companies

maybe its a small thing that doesnt seem important but i cant stand it, im just a little part time worker doing data work so i got no say in it but the companies founder also announced hes giving his post to his kids some time ago so ...... since then theres been alot of changes and new projects that solely aim to imitate whats popular and whats done by other companies, despite ours being one that is, or used to be, intentionally different, like, that was the POINT, but i guess chasing trends is just too appealing for CEOs

#ganondoodles talks #personal #rare personal rant #theres more and more changes that feel so weirdly forced #like man #i thought being different was the whole point #like climate and ethics are .. or were .. the core idea and now i guess its just fine to do whatever conventional companies are doing #yeah woohoo lets also do an app thing that forces people to sign up if they want reasonable prices!#smartphones the standard everwhere!#who needs anything physical if you can put it in an a phone so syphon off data directly out of people fingertips!! yea!!!#lets use AI pitcures bc we refuse to hire more graphic desingers and they are jsut so overworked uwu #climate? ethic? whats that #argh #sorry this needed to get out #recently had a stupid conversation with a coworker bc i asked them why we are okay with AI shit now when it goes against what this-#company was presumably founded on #and he was rly defensive and said welll we dont have time and its cheap and also maybe we should got WITH the time #like that last thing especially pissed me tf off #but i cant afford to lose this job #im starting to hate it more though so the dream of being able to stay like this might not be real #i cant get a job in this place that is as nice to my mental health so idk man #i wish i was good enough at merch and online stuff so i could live of that #but even trying to find out how taxes work on that stuff is a nightmare to me

A new sculpture! Finally... I feel like I never sculpt anymore since I'm always sick or have some 500 other things going on or projects to finish, but I'm trying to schedule time to do it more often this year hopefully..! Just a generic fantasy creature as usual, but did try making the eyes a little more sparkly this time.. hrmm..

#sculpture #fantasy art #fantasy creature #art #elf #lol what are the tags I should use... I still never know.. EVIL social media.. hate the idea of tagging anything ever anyway. but alas..#I also would ideally like to start selling them again and open up custom commmissions and stuff again once I can hopefully get paypal #stuff sorted out. and find like.. a good way to do things.. etc.. I did still want to sell them through auction instead of agonizing #over setting prices being afraid they're either too high or too low. So being able to just be like. Here. this is $50. or more. or less.#negotiate. the worth is whatever you feel like it is so i personally dont have to make that decision. etc. lol... But etsy doesn't let you #do auctions or like pay what you want type stuff so.. then I was thinking ebay? but idk.. ANYWAY.. I want to set things #up so I can sell stuff again hopefully. I still haven't fully recovered from the costs of when I had to take my cat to the vet and put #them down last year and etc. So it'd be good to sell a few things. perhaps.. maychance... perhamble... so on and so forthe... ANYWAY #I was going for whiter more milky sort of hair that blends in closely with the skintone but after the paint dried it seems more yellowy kin #of. which is fine. But just not exacltly like my mind vision lol..#Also it's like... wow... someone with face spots and elf ears and a half open mouth with a gap tooth and wavy hair and kind of downturned #eyes... revolutionary... never been seen before... every sculpture I have ever made surely doesnt look licherally exactly like this... LOL #but maybe it's just a style. so what. People have their motifs lol.. Im just getting back into sculpting. I shall sameface in peace. huzzah #Just like the only thing I ever carve out of avocado pits anymore is eyes. Because that's just whats fun to do. I'm going to accumulate lik #25 similar avocado eyes and have nothing to do with them. I was thinking of stringing some together into a necklace of eyes or something li #like that but.. hrmm... ANYWAY.. Love to do the same things repetitively. :3c

#when is it my turn to be happy.#it’s so stupid because this literally happens every february without fail but it’s still unbearable #i’m SO SAD and i don’t know what to do with myself #i know i should just try to sit it out. it’ll sort itself out eventually. but it’s SO HARD #i truly really hope it’s the lower estrogen dose cuz that means i’ll be fine as soon as i get back to sweden at least #but also i don’t wanna BE SAD until then i wanna be able to enjoy my time here properly

can't say the school bc the program is so small that it doxxes me basically immediately, but the admissions office sent me a letter of acceptance and i emailed them back like thank you i got so excited but i didn't cry at the hockey game (i did). and then i met with their admissions director to talk about everything, and he was like oh btw. you're a hockey fan? our school has a really good men's hockey team did you know? me: no 😃 (<- one of the most successful d1 programs in the united states). him: oh they're really good! i wonder if we can get you to a game 🤔 me: you cannot because the season ends in march however i appreciate that you're working so hard to get me there that you're trying to use ncaa hockey as a selling point.

cannot overstate to you how little this program has to do with sports. this whole process is making my ego huge while also scaring me very badly lmao

#actually the reason they're REALLY scaring me is bc they said oh we'll have merit scholarships sorted out at the end of feb so #hopefully we should have answer if you get money on top of free ride and then we'll be able to pay for your visit #which is scary bc what if i don't get any that would be so embarrassing #but also i need at least 3-4 weeks of notice to sort out dog care lmao #it's like yes my dog sleeps conservatively 20 hours a day but also he is kinda nearing the end of his doggy life and i gotta find a sitter #who is fine if he kicks the bucket while i'm touring a college lmao #anyway. i'm really good at inventing reasons to be anxious about things that haven't happened yet #fresn oilers.txt

i think going fishing would fix me

#or maybe dip netting so i can look at pretty specimens #i really do need to get a fishing license so i can get some trout and process it for eating #im getting a little less sick with the warm weather but theres other stuff i need to work towards first #my area has a lot of really cool fish actually :} if i told you what kinds it would dox me though so you'll have to guess haha #should probably pick up more knife skills in advance so i can debone it easier though. and learn how to dispatch the fish -#very quick and painlessly. its cruel how ive seen them killed before and i cant stomach it. you owe it to the animal to dispatch quickly #ough. hopefully my health doesnt take a nosedive i want to go out this year and learn and grow and change and hit milestones -#i honestly never thought id be able to tbh. whether that be from audhd or just being sick yeah?#i wanna learn how to make shoes and how to talk to people. i wanna learn the best fishing spots and how to patch my pants invisibly #i wanna carve some bowls with strands of wheat on the sides and i want to build muscle strength back up #i want to fix the cracked step. and oil the hinges on doors so they dont squeak #i wanna finish my neon colored knit socks! i want to get better! i want novel experiences!#i could have probably put this on my sideblog but i think it will be fine. im going to finish my socks today #good morning. good evening. good night. please have an absolutely wonderful day. i hope you can do the things you've been too sick to do too #not a horse

What a worthless animal

#oc: siggy #first image is babies attempting to figure out their ideal limb count #anyway having a bit of a 'never trust how you feel about your life at 3am' moment but i think the artfight brain plague is beginning to hit #dont worry about me im fine #just feeling a lil bad about maybe not being able to clean up the revenges i would like too and theres sooo many i didnt even get to sketch #and am only at like 50% of how much i 'scored' last year so it makes me feel a lil eh like im not doing as much #but ultimately i did way way more revenges even if it mightve been a mistake LMAO so at least thats something #although i feel bad cause i didnt even revenge some of the coolest ones i got!!! augh!!!!!!!!!!#ah well beetles dont have to deal with these problems we should be more like them #if you read my tag rants sorry about the lore on how my brain works you should check out the wooly chafer beetle

Truly how long until the pacers play next has become the only way that I measure the passage of time

#Game is in 9hrs and I have been delaying making dinner for 7hrs....#i am so barely equipped for human survival #told my roommate/carer that i was gonna be fine while they went on their surprise trip and its going uhhhh mediocre #i ran out of the reheatable pasta so now im just sorta on the struggle bus #this is exhausting how do people take care of themselves for more than a couple hours at a time #probs by not being disabled to be fair #but still #normally we would have organized for friends to pop in but this was very last minute and everyones busy #by the time i finish making food im so tired that i dont want to eat it :(#i should have caved earlier and ordered dinner in but its 1am now #i have eaten a bag of marshmallows and a bunch of skittles lmao #its technically monday now so i only gotta survive like 36 more hrs it will be fine #but i may end up with another all nighter before this game cause i dont want to sleep through it #and going through all the effort to get set up to be able to sleep just to wake up in a few hrs sounds awful #if i go to bed after the game i can sleep wayyy longer and then it will almost be over #at least ive been doing a good job remembering to feed the cats and fish #theyre on schedule and happy so thats something :S

howdy!! it's been a minute but i'm still around. fair warning-- i have been lurking the whole time and have about. 100+ posts drafted 😵‍ you'll be seeing these shortly, i'll try my best to space them out as i get around to tagging them

#tldr im fine it's just been a lot lately and i havent had the energy to tag anything #which!! i like being chatty in the tags and i try my best to say at least something cool about any art or fic i rb #when you're running on 0 tho.... it gets hard to keep that energy up yk???#long version: (if anyone is reading this ty but feel free to drop off at any point it's kinda heavy and just a vent)#hit the 'one more minor inconvenience and im running off into the woods forever' point about five major events ago yet we're still truckin #firstly: found out two months ago (february) that i needed 6 credits worth of college by june to keep my teaching license for next year #so accelerated online graduate courses were the only option and i have since done more work for that than my 5 year undergrad #im almost done with the second class but im so fuckin drained dude i havent been able to really draw/write or play music or sew or anything #everything i do try has either been hit with the executive dysfunction or turns out Bad enough that i get frustrated #shortly after i found out the nice old guy downstairs died my upstairs neighbor who i cared a lot about died. last week and im still waitin #to find out when the funeral is from her son. ive been taking that kinda hard since i feel like i should have checked on her #my parents are moving 17 hours cross country to move back to where we are which is nice but ive been hearing about all their stress with th #house sale on loop by this point whenever i talk to them. which fair they managed to sell the house in a week when we thought itd be months #got smacked with thousands of dollars of surprise car repairs out of nowhere to get my inspection sticker and am still trying to recover #and petty things: lost my favorite piece of clothing and broke my glasses last week while running tech week for the kids #idk man any one thing at a time i could've toughed out better its just been all at once #anyways like i said i'm still truckin and will probably delete this (or at least the tags on it) later had to get all that out somewhere #messenger pidge #if anyone did get this far down thank you for watching me yap <3 i promise im good and will be back to normal shenanigans soon hopefully

7hrs into my work day lets play a fun game of how much overtime will they make me do 🥰

#i should be going home in AN HOUR!#if im here until 7 again im pulling a sickie tmr idgaf #making me run this stupid thing twice in a day bitch it takes 5 hours!!!!! and i had to do an hour of washing up this morning from #yesterdays run bc we havent had a functional lab dishwasher for 3 months yep we have been fucking handwashing every piece of lab glassware #FOR THREE MONTHS!!#u guys dont even fucking know how much glassware we get thru in a fucking day its shambles #i dont think i even have enough glassware for my second run this afternoon so im gonna have to wash up more #one of the other techs made up the most time consuming reagent for me tho which saves me an hour bless her #but fuuucking hell. hoping when i get back from lunch theyll tell me i dont need to do any more 😭#so i can LEAVE. ON TIME. PLEASE #i cant do another 11 hour day man im not on a fucking shift pattern. if i was then at least id be able to fucking meal prep in advance #but nooooo theyre addicted to giving me unscheduled overtime to do tasks i fucking hate #also did i mention they made it even more complex so now i have to take readings every 30 seconds while constantly titrating this shit #for TEN HOURS. the amount of focus it takes is horrendous i have to keep the number in a 0.0016 range and there are so many dilutions #all this and u can still only analyse 3 samples in 5 hours bc everything has to be in triplicate its fucking sisyphean. hell on earth #puts my head in my hands and wails. im fine ahahahhaahaha. everyone in the lab is being nice abt it at least im getting a lot of pity #i wish i could work shift pattern by this point man or like a 4 day week w 10 hour days. when my managers back im gonna ask her abt it #bc theyve let a few other ppl have custom hours. they wont let me work weekends which is annoying bc im SO productive alone #i might ask again lol so much of my shit is fully independent anyway. aourgh. i get so twitchy from staring at the numbers it makes my #vision swim a bit..... well im used to it #aight vent over im going back in..... wish me fucking luck guys #.diaries
