You would not believe your eyes

If a hulking red Dhelmise

Went silly mode as you gave it beans

… Basically any Pokémon can be cute under the right circumstances or given the right motivation and there is absolutely nothing that can make me think otherwise. Little guy or perhaps even little fella vibes, just size XXL. I am not biased at all whatsoever in this assessment

#ruthrambles #pkmn irl #rotomblr #anyone want to help me make a place called Calamity Square that definitely isn’t a ripoff of Amity Square #just without the extremely biased and subjective ‘cute Pokémon only` rule probably written by a hater #‘that’s just a park’ no we need to copy the aesthetics exactly #the same experience just not needlessly exclusive #can you tell I am maybe a little bit tired as I am posting this #today has been somewhat of a day #the wild pidove I evicted tried to get back in the house #spent like an hour looking for Cheerio and they were chilling between the couch cushions of all places #the neighbor’s Herdier has decided to bark really loud at night too #part of me wants to teach Lumen hypnosis for situations like this #however comma #the smart part of me recognizes that is probably a very bad idea

#so one half of the couple i'm house/dogsitting for had an unexpected medical emergency on their trip #which -- i won't go into details but it culminated in a pretty serious diagnosis and emergency major surgery #and now they're coming home today after getting medevac transport back to california #and have asked me to stay here for a few more days while they settle in #as the one who had the emergency needs 24/7 care during recovery but is being released from hospital to recover at home #and they need someone to basically keep looking after the dog/keep her from getting in the way while they figure out what care he needs #anyway i agreed to stay a few days like they asked #which means i'm trying to finish my coursework before they get back later this afternoon but man my focus levels are LOW #and honestly they have been for several days at this point because once again it seems that waiting to hear about medical stuff has become #somewhat of a panic response trigger for me since the extended nightmare of february this year with my dad #and mostly i've been able to compartmentalize but the energy that takes has truly wiped me out #to the point that i'm genuinely shocked it hasn't set off a fibro flare up (touch wood)#also i really don't know this couple very well at all -- they're mostly friends of my parents-in-law #i've looked after their dog for them several times over the past couple of years #but obviously that's been while they aren't home #and i've only had fairly brief interactions with them #so i do feel a bit awkward about being here while they're going through something so serious and personal #but they're nice people and they need the help and i'm able to provide it so i'm gonna push past that #anyway just a tag post venting thing

achieving great things (daily walk, lasagna) in the face of obstacles (on and off rain, fucked up noodles) today

#the weather has been sucking so bad lately theres been a lot of weird days where its like sunny one minute and raining the next #i was cranky abt going on a walk later than usual but once im outside im like oh okay im fine now im outside 👍#the lasagna noodles are another story but at least the homemade lasagna was eventually made #the sauce was made yesterday so its been doing Sauce Things in the fridge to taste better #but when the noodles were cooked today the little crimped edges of the lasagna noodles?? all fell off???#so we were left with fucked up somewhat shredded sad rectangles #they still were enough to construct the lasagna and thats all that matters #this was all after braving the horrors of the grocery store so a well rounded day

hallucinations caused by seizures are so annoying i’m just trying to make tortellini but unfortunately my skull is a cavern deep in the earth slowly collapsing during a massive earthquake that’s releasing floods of groundwater into my sinuses causing me to feel like i’m drowning from the inside out while i struggle to not fall to my knees. and then it’s over and i keep stirring my tortellini. and then repeat

#Don’t Feel Good! Feel Reallt Bad! Somewhat Concerningly Bad!#i’ve slept normally and takin my meds and anything so it’s a bit concerning how bad today has been. but it will likely be fine #i saw my new neurologist for the first time like 3 days ago and got to report i’m doing so super goodb #lame.#epilepsy #actually epileptic

pro: ran into a coworker at a bar last night who I don’t really talk to usually (he works upstairs, I work downstairs) and we talked and im pretty sure we were highkey flirting and he bought me a drink and the bar merch shirt i was interested in and thanks to the power of alcohol i guess i asked for his number and he gladly gave it to me and. yeah

con: i have the second worst hangover i have ever had and have been fighting for my fucking life just to eat saltines

#it’s getting better but only now that it’s like. 6pm #as weird as it sounds part of why this sucks is that I volunteered to come into work today cause there’s a concert going on nearby which #usually means we’re at least somewhat busy -> make better tips #and I couldn’t go in because well. you know #I’ve been sick and dying in bed all day unable to move or eat or anything #let alone take the bus and go to work #but. as much as I wish I didn’t go this overboard I don’t totally regret last night cause.#yeah. potential thing going on with cute coworker guy. OH and potential job opportunity at my favorite bar in town #apparently said coworker Also has a job at the bar in addition to where we both work and the bar is hiring barbacks at entry-level #so I have someone to vouch for me and the bartender we were talking to seemed to really want me to apply too #one thing that’s kinda funny to me about all this is that the first two places (a bar then a club) we were at felt really mid because they #were packed with way too many straight people (at a gay bar and a gay club)#but the bar we ended up at (where we ALWAYS end up at. it is the oasis. it is the only thing I can rely on) felt. like. not overwhelmingly #straight? at all? I mean part of it’s just luck in a way with just who happened to be there and all that but it’s also that the staff seem #pretty significantly populated with queer ppl #I complained to the bartender about how the club we were at (one of the biggest gay clubs in the city- if not The biggest) just felt kinda #meh because yeah maybe there were some guys dancing in jockstraps and whatever but the crowd itself like. did not feel largely queer #or at least didn’t have the spirit I’d hope for in a queer space if that makes sense. felt very conventional. not enough wild outfits and #makeup and gender fuckery and so on #and the bartender was like dude I KNOW right? I went off outside there once about the invasion of cishets when this space isn’t FOR them #and so on and so forth. and god that was So real.#so the experience at my beloved bar last night was like. 1) guy comes up behind me just to order a drink but i was saving a seat for my #friend who was in the bathroom and mentioned that in case he was looking to take the seat. chatted a little. ended with him pointing out #that a guy nearby was trying to holla at me.#2) I look over and yes. the dj is. in fact. looking directly at me and mouthing the lyrics to whatever song was playing pointed my way.#it was pretty sweet honestly I think it was partly cause I looked like I was shy and alone #3) whatever gay shit was going on with my coworker and i. amusingly he seems to get more flamboyant when he drinks just like i do.#im not 100% sure what his sexuality is but i Am 100% sure it is Not straight. but yeah. if it hadn’t been so close to closing time ive been #hardcore wondering where that would’ve gone. maybe its for the best that i had to go when i did cause i was pretty drunk and who knows when #I could’ve hit the amount of drunk it takes to like outright say hey just so you know i’d suck your dick right now if you wanted

took the day off work for an allergist appointment. can't wait to find out what all i'm allergic to finally

#it feels like i'm just allergic to existing at this point #this is actually my second time seeing this allergist but the first time she decided to not do allergy testing #she said she didn't want to trigger an asthma attack and instead opted to focus on fixing my fucked up breathing #which has been somewhat successful so far #tho i haven't been able to take antihistamines this week in prep for the testing and i've been struggling #today isn't too bad but the past two days i felt like i was dying

So I did cave(as I knew I would, I have very little self-control when it comes to this kind of thing lol) and bought and played through Scarlet Hollow and WOW you were right! I gotta say the weight your choices carry are MUCH more terrifying than anything else (which was a big thing I saw when reading reviews and such but I'm almost like NO THIS IS TOO MUCH RESPONSIBILITY AAAHH😬😬) and the butterfly effect of it all. It is HEAVY and definitely requires a palette cleanser (for me at least) but it was good and of course I'm already drawing elaborate art of my MC about it 😂😂

I glad you liked it and it wasn't too scary! (This is a follow-up to an ask kingdom-dance sent a little while ago.) Yeah, the amount of power the cousin holds is huge! Their choices alone determine SO much, without trying they hold the lives of a lot of people in their hands. And you are right, that weight is a lot more terrifying than the rest of the game! Especially because we haven't even seen all the consequences of most of those choices yet. Like three of my four characters have a worldstate where Duke is dead, and we still don't know what that means for the town. Besides Bo and his mom being without him suddenly, that is. I'm with you on needing a palate cleanser. It is a heavy game, and I really feel the weight of the choices we make. But I still love it to bits, and I'm so glad my friends talked me into playing it! Now I'm really looking forward to seeing a drawing of your cousin! I want to know all about them, like what are their traits, which characters like them and which don't, and what choices they made!

#sorry for not answering sooner #the last few days have been rough but I'm feeling somewhat better today #honestly Scarlet Hollow has me coming up with more theories and digging into themes and characters more than any I've played #Shepherds of Haven comes in second in that regard #though my partner and I once had an hour long conversation about the morality of a single choice in Ebon Light lol #not that he's played any of these games - but we both like to talk about stories with each other #scarlet hollow

My brain is. Absolutely buzzing with fic ideas right now and last night I started on a new one because I felt like i had to at least get the premise down before I lost it, but now I'm nearly 6k words in and oh no I don't have time to get another longfic wip going.... I'm 140k words deep into two other longfics right now 😭 I want to get into it, but I have too many stories fighting for attention in my head and this won't end well if I hop between them all bc I want to finish something for once. Ahhhh!!! Darn you limited time.

#It's about to get so much more limited because I'm starting 6 day a week FFXIV prog on Monday #technically I started last night (so I was up until 11:30pm writing the first 2k words of this...) but we have today off bc I have a concer #and like. getting off work at 3:30 if i then have 3 hours of prog. an hour to make dinner. 30-40 minutes to walk/run/exercise #that's not enough time to get out many words of fic. not if i want to do other enjoyable things with my life #so my productivity is going to tank.#so far my daily average wordcount for may has been over 3k which is insane. but i haven't had raid in ffxiv this so far this month #so that means a lot more time to write. as in 3 more hours per night to write. not that i usually write for 3hrs #but still. you get the gist of it. it's also 3 hours i'm not sitting at my computer so it's easier on the body to sit at the comp and write #anyway for anyone who is reading these tags for a mysterious reason. 1) hi. 2) this is. you probably guessed it. a dmc fic #this one is based on the vergil time travel idea that spaceacerat proposed. there are so many ways it could go but-#-this is one that would take place right before sparda leaves so sparda is still there and vergil has to convince him not to go #the thing there is i'm not really sure how it would end...in my other time travel fic i DO have an explanation for how sparda died #but i developed it specifically for that fic and it would not work for a happy ending in this fic. which i'd like to have #that fic also takes place after sparda's gone so. y'know.#but yeah i...as i'm writing this i now have somewhat of an idea for an ending but it's. bittersweet? maybe? hmmm #but yeah! never underestimate my love for time travel fics it's my favorite trope of all time. has been since i met trunks dbz as a kid.#erurandomness #erubabbles

My emotions have been drained by today. So, I don't know if I'll be able to get part 9 of season 3 out today.

I will work on it, but, I can't promise anything. If it's not out later, than maybe tomorrow. If tomorrow isn't as bad as today that is.

Either way, have a small preview doodle of a short moment in p9s3.

It's not much, but it's something.

#really struggling today #my vet suspects my cat has FIP and I’m crushed since that’s basically a death sentence and he only just turned 5 :(#I know GS-441524 is somewhat available in Canada now but since it’s not FDA approved it’s like 8k #what’s worse is my family and I have a 2 week vacation scheduled on May 11 #so even though there’s this drug with a 90% success rate it’s just so incredibly expensive I doubt we could afford it #even if we did manage to get our hands on it we wouldn’t be able to administer it to him for those 2 weeks #and even though he’s doing somewhat ok at the moment who knows what his condition will be like during those 2 weeks :(#ultimately we’re trying to decide whether or not to put him down before our trip #like if he does have it and died alone and in pain while we were out of the country I would be crushed #but I’d also be crushed if we put him down when there’s the chance he doesn’t have it since FIP is so hard to diagnose #it’s the not knowing what’s going on that makes it worse #it’s so hard because he’s still so sweet and curious and has really been my rock since we got him I’m just absolutely beside myself #like the whole day yesterday he’s done nothing but cuddle me and my mom like he knows we’re upset but doesn’t know why #I just feel like I’m abandoning and failing him in his time of need #I desperately don’t want to go on this trip so I can spend more time with him and maybe scrounge up enough money to buy the drugs #and give him a fighting chance #but I can’t and I feel sick and trapped about it

is there anything worse than correcting a cis person who you think is misgendering you but they were talking about someone else entirely and so then you have to apologize and it’s already so hard speaking up and now you just feel so stupid, like why even say anything ever… man… 🥲

#this hs happened like 3 times #luckily it only happened once today but every time it happens I remember the other times and I want to die #like every time I actually have the balls to say something it’s not even about me #and then when it is about me I’m either to exhausted or too scared to say something #i hope one day I can pass at least somewhat enough to where I get misgendered the other way instead of the usual way lmao #callate guero #also my sister has been misgendering me more on accident and I think it might be #cause we work together now and I’m not out to my coworkers #so when we’re back home she’s like still in that mindset ykno #idk #anyways!!!#i was able to look pretty masc today even if it was very drag but idk it felt good LMAO #i hope one day I can get my body to look the way I want it to <3 #okay I’m clearly tipsy and sleepy and overthinking every social interaction so time to sleep <33:#GNIGHT <33

Idk how many of y'all watch Good Mythical Morning but I just want to say that as a gnc person it makes me so happy to see Chase get to dress however he wants and have it just be normal. The crop top he always wears during international food taste tests isn't treated as weird, that's just his cartographer shirt, and it's become such a signature look that other people have to wear it while filling in for him. He plays a few female characters that wear dresses, but the fact that he's playing a woman or wearing a dress is never treated like a joke. The actual joke is that the character he's playing is a fancy dancing cow or an alternate universe version of Little Debbie named Giant Deborah who can teleport across dimensions if you chant for her. The dress is just part of the character, and Chase just happens to be comfortable wearing dresses and really good at playing funny characters. Idk, it just makes me feel really happy to see another gnc person out there thriving and living their best life. I've always been hesitant about being out as nonbinary at work bc I didn't think it would be possible for people to just treat it like a normal thing, and recently I've been worried that once I graduate college and go on to more "professional" work my future employers may see my gender nonconformity as unprofessional, which scares me bc it's not even possible for me to conform to any gender expectations anymore. But. Here on one of my favorite YouTube channels there's a gnc person who gets to dress however they want for their job, even having roles where their gender nonconformity is important to the videos, and it's just treated like the most normal thing in the world. If that's possible then maybe the idea of finding a research job that will respect me isn't so far fetched

#good mythical morning #rambling #idk i just get emotional sometimes #as someone whos worried that even gender nonconformity would be viewed as unprofessional in my future field and frowned upon #regardless of whether i would be interacting with the public #seeing someone whos able to be as gnc as they want at a job where theyre being FILMED for the public and posted to an audience #really does kinda give me hope that i can find acceptance one day #its really cool that stevie presents in a gnc way too sometimes but shes not on camera as much #but idk. it just makes me feel happy #im watching the international foods taste test they posted today and chase is wearing an even shorter crop top under his cartographer shirt #and i was just like HELL yeah you GO king!!#as someone whos been watching the show for a long time and has also seen a lot of old episodes from before i started watching #i like seeing how much more confident chase is now that he dresses how he wants to as well #in a lot of the old videos he dressed very much like a stereotypical straight boy and he seemed a lot more shy and timid back then #now you can just tell how happy he is. he seems so confident in himself and he contributes so much to the show now #idk. i want that one day. i hope i can find a stable career where I'll be accepted for who i am #instead of having to pretend to be something else or worry about what people are thinking of me if i dont #my job now is definitely better than some of my old ones but i still dont really know what people think of me now that im somewhat out #and spending 40 hours a week walking on egg shells with your own damn existence isnt fun :( but. maybe its not forever. i hope

#last night i dreamed that i was trapped in my same patterns as i am while awake but the building i work in was bigger #and i was so dizzy and disoriented that i kept stumbling from room to room. up and down stairs. running into people who would stare at me #in confusion until one grabbed me in the way u do when someone is being concerning and incoherent and he made me sit in an auditorium #with a doctor who already knew my name. but then i was back in my messy apartment staring down at a lizard id let die because id forgotten #to feed it. part of my brain was in contact with my mum and she said i should come home so i did. i appeared there but i seemed somewhat #transparent. liked id been there a long time so no one noticed my being there was out of place. they were there but doing other things #i wandered into a room where some ppl i knew from hs were performing surgery. i went to wash my hands and the soap came out as blood #my sister tolerated my presence. which is out of character. she seemed to sense something was wrong. then i walked back into my current #apartment halfway across the country. caught a glimpse of myself in the bathroom mirror and became transcendently angry #uneasy dreams. but at least i didnt have to get up at 6. i mean i still only got like 7hrs sleep at most but better than 6 i guess #its probably bc i spent so much time hysterically crying and staring off into space yesterday. by the end of the day i felt so awful i #wondered if i might b getting sick. dizzy in that way thats not quite dizzy #but today should b pretty laid back. still doing things but probably ill hace time to get some non work bullshit #done. hopefully. then its back to 11hr days until Monday #then the experiment is over and i havr to deal with the consequences. and finish my other destructive project #which has at least 11 days left #well see what happens 🫠#unrelated

#the depression has hit hard today #I could feel it coming in the past couple of days and I woke up this morning and I was like yep she’s here #so I’ve been busting myself looking for concert outfits for Louis and 5sos and have come up somewhat empty handed #*busying #I thought I had my Louis ones set in stone but now I want something different #I have the tops of every outfit chosen so I have something to work with but what do I do in the bottom #do I want a skirt or shorts or pants #I’ve even looked at skorts #I’m leaning towards a skirt because I will take any excuse to wear a skirt #but do I want a short skirt with tights underneath or a maxish skirt #do I wear converse or vans or dr marten sandals #it’s gonna be so hot #I’m stressed #I thought looking for outfits would make me feel better but it’s made me feel worse

been validated in my (poor?) decisions TWICE today and i’m feeling vindicated if also mildly conflicted

#not feeling like such a bad person for it after today #unrelated but it was also my grandpa’s service today and two of my dad’s long term family friends were there #and i’ve known them and their two daughters since i was a baby #and it was really nice to have them there #especially Aundra #she had my dad scootch over so she could sit next to me and we talked about how their bookstores are doing #and what her girls are up to #(one is finishing up her psych degree the other has just finished her apprenticeship as a tattoo artist)#and we talked about me going back to school and what i find fascinating about the sciences #and then back at the reception we talked books and animal intelligence #it was nice #also during the service my uncle (the youngest of the four kids) touched on Papa’s problems with anger in his early and mid-life #which gave me a bit more of an understanding of my father #because my dad never really saw his dad’s anger issues as ‘that bad’ or ‘much of a problem’#but the other kids did #and that explains why my dad also never saw his OWN anger issues as ‘that serious’ when they severely impacted the life of my mother and I #anyway family history is complex and trauma lives through generations #my dad had a severely alcoholic mother and a father with (at least during some points in his life) serious anger issues #and now he has a complicated and somewhat reliant relationship with alcohol and anger issues that haunted our family for some years #learning about family history gives a decent amount of insight and I hope it can arm us a little better #anyway #been a big day and I’m sooooooo sleepy #looking forward to seeing a friend on Tuesday to find our classrooms in advance of classes starting up in two weeks #personal
