Dazai: We're finally getting along. It's been 24 hours since the last time we fought. Isn't that great?
Chuuya: No, it isn't. We complete the missions faster when we're fighting.
Dazai: Quick then, say something annoying!

the 2020s political argument for unionization is that the only activity/location that rivals the phone in terms of time spent is the workplace. once they clock out they are lost to phone
#the thing with labor is that organizing used to be much harder. history provides a perspective. it could be worse.#source: it has been#maybe sean obrien will get a return on his turncoat investment. i don't know. whatever#if he does it won't matter electorally because nobody gaf about the 6% of private sector workers who are in unions#either way that high rate of public approval for unions aint nothing but political capital to burn. TO ME#treatlers will not be happy with an organized amazon. let them be miserable!#let them order the struggle sandwich with dire sauce.#i believe in the power of self interest.#i mean only the deep south bothers with anti-union messaging from government anymore anyway#so like we gotta Lock In#like 👽what is the next step of the operation👽

saw someone say they think mh and ah are basically the same and theres no point in trying to separate the two…
#like why do ppl who only like arcane refuse to shut up abt viktor#u obv dont care abt him so just be quiet🤣🤣🤣#the reason u dont merge them together is bc arcanes writer took viktor stomped all over everything he was abt and shat out ah#not only did they completely miss the mark on viktors og lore#Riot then thought the next best step would be to completely erase viktor in favor of arcane#and the thing is their stories are LIGHTLY connected.#mh story is driven by his need for autonomy and control#ah story is driven by his lack of autonomy#mh builds his body from scratch#ah gets dipped in hexgoo becomes possessed and incubates in hexgoo again to get his new form#liek😭😭😭#be soooo fucking fr#there are far more differences in their arcs and character that trying to claim they are basically the same infuriates me#Like lemme guess ur only source of info regarding league is via fanfiction written by other arcane fans whose only ssource for league is ff

getting into more nonfiction media really has been so helpful. i worry so much about taking things at face value but now ive really gotten into the habit of scrutinizing things even when i enjoy them. this ancient lizard is really cool and i love seeing how it terrorized the earth millions of years ago but who's making these renditions? where are the sources? oh theyre listed during, after, and in the desc of the video? perfect.
#next step will be actually reading the source material when im dubious on a claim. or just think its cool.#<-guy who has been consuming so much media on what the world was like millions of years ago

yalllll how does this blog already have over 100 followers 💀 thank you guys!! 🫶💖 I hope I don't disappoint! never be afraid to correct me on shit, I love it as long as you're nice lmao. I got quite a few requests last night so I'll be working on those later! one is that cynthia quote ("john never looked at anyone the way he looked at paul") which I already started digging at this morning and am running into the most annoying roadblock with on twitter so if anyone has any leads on hand on Where that originated lmk!
#like it's for sure fake I'm just trying to track down the og source#and there's a Ghost of a tweet with it that seems to be the oldest#but the tweet mustve been deleted#next step after work I think is seeing if anyone archived that twitter account#type: not factchecking

the destability of social media at the moment is real stressful if you've say, spent like five years building up a following that you rely on super heavily for word of mouth advertising and support! and yet we persist 🙃
so, where can you follow and share my work in this ever changing hellscape of social media and microblogging platforms? WELL--
💬 http://samndoesart.bsky.social 🎨 http://thatscreamingrat.tumblr.com 🎨 http://thatscribblingrat.tumblr.com 💸 https://ko-fi.com/screamingrat
#ad#kinda#ratsqueaks#time for a little tag rant#this whole business has been reaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaally stressing me out#and its hard because to most poeple i just sound like the most terminally online dickhead to exist#but when you look at the funding numbers for that failed kickstarter#its pretty clear that our social media advertising failed massively where it would have been our key source of support before!!!!#i dont know what the next step is#but i sure as shit am not pivoting to video

ngl hotd season 2 has been really disappointing
#now i wish i'd never looked at the source material and had any expectations#cos if i were to list everything that wasn't done well about this season i could give you essays worth of content smh#not me thinking that it might help improve my mood over the past couple months but if anything it's just made me more resigned lmao#i had a lot of anticipation for house of the dragon and the boys and both mostly let me down#i badly needed the escapism but so far it's just a mixture of ''that was okay'' and ''meh'' and ''oh ffs what is this''#i can't even look forward to arcane season 2 now because having good expectations has been a curse for me this year#only the next step hasn't let me down lol#personal

i actually don't think s6 is nearly as painful and angsty from an msr standpoint as everyone says it is, certainly not as much as s4 and s5 are. it's really more like a season long game of chicken lmao
#this is like...post the mortifying ordeal of being Known in ftf#so like it's still tense and awkward but not in the soul crushing way that s4 and s5 are#they know they could take that next step if they really wanted to#but for the first time it's outside sources (diana) that are keeping them from taking that next step rather than their own insecurities#along with figuring out wtf that next step would look like and if it's something they want#but i don't think they're questioning their feelings for each other anymore like...they Know#they just have to spend a whole other season being Okay with it#hence Field Trip and Amor Fati#txf rewatch

TO REITERATE: I will NOT be taking any requests that are incestuous or anything that contains an adult x a child. I am NOT a proshipper nor do I support proshippers. I have tried to be polite but firm because I am a public figure here technically and I don't want to abuse any position I have or be mean.
However, that being said, I have been clear in multiple posts that I do not condone that sort of behavior or even tolerate it anywhere near me. I am no longer going to be polite.
Enough.
#crow chirps#ARENT YOU TIRED OF BEING NICE. DONT YOU WANT TO GO APE SHIT.#yes i made this because i got another inappropriate ship in my box#going to be so real i do think one of them was either the Original Guy or they were affiliated with them#this next person didnt have the exact same typing pattern but some of the wording was suspicious to me#anyways#proshippers get tf away from me challenge lol#i have been blocking people but im going to start making an example of people on top of it#basically: stop stepping on my boundaries!!!! its rude#im a person first and an artist second and i am always always going to come first#if that pisses anyone off you are free to take your leave if you so choose#not art#i do apologize for so many posts about this#ive seen friends get popular for art and people start treating them as like less than human#so im hoping that by being loud about my boundaries from the start#hopefully ppl will know to buzz off if for some reason i ever take off#i am less strict ab this with warrior cats because the source material is already completely and utterly fucked#nobody knows wtf is going on and half of thunderclan is already inbred#for warriors i'd say like. be mindful? use your judgement#but with mlp there is NO excuse

progress scan of the collage I'm working on :))))
#for the most part the trees are all from old images of trains on mountainsides because I love how vast the space around them is#maybe the next step is mountains. I'd have to source a really yellow/tan sky though....#my art

I love reading about new beginnings, and the end of something announcing the start of something better, but right now I need characters who are failures and losers and who are closing an exciting chapter in their lives just to open a boring one
#incompatible with. most stuff i read tbh#like by nature reading romance often means the start of a fun new relationship#which is always a win and a step up because you have another source of happiness in your life and a new relationship#but i'm going to be done with my year abroad and i'm going back to live with my parents#and either redo my 3rd year or take a break and work#and none of that feels like going forward and The Next Big Step#i am doing the metaphorical opposite of going off to college#and i would like some fictional littoe guy to also be miserable and doing the opposite of going to college#so it's not just me feeling melancholy and like an idiot#i'll take thinking it's gonna suck and actually it doesn't honestly i just want someone else's feelings to be like mine#wow i have a ramble tag now#england adventures

the rabbithole this post about a pornographic sumerian poem is beginning to lead me down....
#so far: i see this post with screenshots from twitter which has screenshots of some rather saucy sumerian poetry. me being me and being#kind of interested (though not very knowledgeable) about sumerian things and intrigued by saucy ancient poetry am like okay but where did#these actually come from. i look through the comments to try and find clues. find out its supposedly from something called 'the courtship#of inanna and dumuzi'. look this up. find a website which just has one webpage with this poem but it has a citation. look up the citation.#the authors name is misspelled and the other author was omitted but find the book its from. look through it on internet archive. find the#poem but the whole thing generally seems too complete and clear to be a sumerian text. look at the back to see if theres an index. it says#this version is actually kinda cobbled together from a bunch of DIFFERENT sumerian love poems and then workshopped a lot to work well in#english. however. it does not list the poems its compiled from. and now this is where im stuck. and i have to go to class now#my next steps though probably trying to find the original tweet and hope the person who posted it sourced it?#cause the screenshots dont seem to be from that website/that version of it

when i went to run errands today i saw more trump signs than before, so maybe dont "abstain" from voting or whatever it is you think you're accomplishing
#yes theyre new 2024 ones#while im interested in third party candidates please remember the electoral college as well as multiple sources saying its only going to#help trump out in the election#however do keep an eye on the potential of it as things change but like. be smart.#how he can even run is beyond me but still just please keep this in mind come next year#and please do NOT try that argument that you will fight bad policies as theyre made. this is literally the first step in preventing that

#give me a hefty fucking user manual not this singular piece of paper of generic ''don't use this product in ways liable to start a fire''#i should not require an ACCOUNT to use a piece of HARDWARE#AND I REFUSE TO MAKE ONE!#i've been locked in combat with a ''smart'' television refusing to acknowledge the cable box for hours now#yes i've made sure everything is plugged in. yes i've tried a different hdmi cable (actually 4 of them). yes i've changed the source#yes i've rebooted the device.#next steps involve threatening it with a hammer.#next steps actually involve calling a customer service line tomorrow. sigh.#suz yells

every once in a while i find myself daydreaming about what it'll be like when i'm a successful and widely celebrated illustrator/author/game dev/whatever the fuck it is this week. which is a completely normal thing to do btw. the thing is though, at the point in time the daydream is at, i've always already produced every miscellaneous project which is bouncing around in my head, so now i need something new for daydream me to be working on/promoting. slightly less normal thing to do but alright. the thing about daydream me is that the fame has gotten to his head, everything he touches is looked upon as gold, so the new games/whatever he's putting out are basically what i would put out if i was too conceited to know what kill your darlings means, and are a parody of what i would come up with. that's the part where this thought exercise (read: indulgent fantasy) takes a turn into insane person territory. the problem with this is that a decent percent of the time i get so attached to daydream me's conceited little projects that i miss the point where they're meant to be a literal parody of how my mind works and they become actual serious things i want to make some day.
#so far we have: bakuman but for eroge. i haven't read bakuman nor have i made an eroge. also the mc is self-aware + a jab at ddlc#as well as its sequel abt censoring eroge for console ports + it's spinoff which is literally the eroge being made in the thing#danmei vn very loosely based on the evil chancellor traytor tumblr post. the reason that's awful is self explanatory.#most recently there's scifi mahabharata bullet hell. which is the next logical step to take when you Know What Round Table Mecha Is and#ask yourself 'what else is in the public domain for him to do the exact same thing to but once he runs out of works in the matter of britai#to adapt' and know my stance on certain fate servants. no i have not actually read it my info is from fgo but i've been meaning to#and obv i wouldn't actually pull that shit with fgo + wikipedia as my source i'm not that out of touch#oh and you can't forget the classic. gag character whose whole deal was originally meant to be a joke abt the tiffany problem#whom i love dearly and whose story has been filtered through every possible medium i'm even slightly interested in since her inception whic#was over a year ago lol#romeo.txt#in case it wasn't clear. this is not the behavior of someone who's capable of completing A project much less however many dozen i've#actually been serious abt all the way through which this shit is meant to come after.
