"kids these days don’t want to work"

Oh, no. Kids want to work, because no work means no money, but the job market is laughing at us.

University/College is a big scam, unless you really want to become an engineer or a pc nerd.

My parents paid for a useless law degree and NOW I have to pay more money for a fucking accountant course for unemployed people, because it's impossible to find a job with my profile.

Education system is just a way to steal working class money.

something to recognize that choosing recovery again and again is difficult work, and you are not weak for faltering

From the river to the sea, Palestine will be free.

For the week of January 21-28, Bisan Owda, a Palestinian journalist, has called for a global strike in support of a permanent ceasefire in Gaza. If you can, take the week off of work or school. Purchase only what you have to. Donate what you can to the cause. Attend protests. Purchase esims. Spread awareness. Whatever you can. Even if you can only do one or two of those things, it could make a much bigger difference than you think.

A non-exhaustive list of ways that younger people could spread support for Palestine as well since most resource posts I see are primarily donations and protests, which not everyone would be able to participate in (it's still incredibly helpful to reblog posts like that, of course)

(not my post) How this strike could help even if it may not feel like it

If you see this post, you are encouraged to reblog with other sites where people could donate, more information about the strike and Gaza, and any news that could be relevant. From the river to the sea, Palestine will be free 🇵🇸

Thank you for hearing me. You shouldn’t have had to give up your voice to be heard.

THE LITTLE MERMAID (2023)

come on barbie let’s get the members of the WGA and SAG-AFTRA revised contracts with the AMPTP so that they can be compensated fairly and ensured protection against any unauthorized use of their likenesses via AI which would be an enormous violation of human ethics/decency ah ah ahh yeah

fallen off the solitaire & sudoku trains and have become obsessed with this terrible word wheel game from like several scrolls down the app store that hasn’t been updated since i would guess 2012

[sarcastic-clapping]

to all the people whose dms, texts, emails, carrier pigeons etc. that i'm currently ignoring who have been sitting here watching me frantically click buttons to boop hundreds of people on tumblr.com: first of all, my bad. but also. boops are different. no i can't explain. they're handled by different brain departments and one is full of monkeys that click buttons but the other is just one really overworked guy who is a whisper away from a nervous breakdown. they're not on speaking terms.

You know my New Years goal in 2023 was to revitalize my friend group post covid, and while things definitely aren't the same as they were in 2019, I think I've been genuinely successful?

It's the sort of thing that's hard to measure obviously, but our group chat is more active now than it has been in a very long time, we're about to hit a year of doing monthly tea parties, and I feel like I'm integrated into my friends lives again in a way that hasn't been true sense the pandemic.

It makes me so genuinely happy. Things might happen in the world that break your connections for a while, but there is always an opportunity for repair if a relationship is important to you 💚

i’ve been wanting to, and currently wanna write more - but between doing orders for commissions and my body pains and right now, being tired - I just haven’t. I’ve also been playing security breach with my fiancé. but I should be writing more, my orders are more chill &. stuff.

Me vs FF14 part... 2?

It's taken me pretty much three full days of running from cutscene to cutscene. But I've finally reached Heavensward.

And like... on some level? I'm kind of offended?

Like, a part of me genuinely wants to replay the entire game from the start "as something else" (different main-class, different race, different starting-area, whichever), because the dungeon-queuing system is actually really fun when you start to Understand it.

As in, FF14 has somehow made an MMO that has almost eliminated the feeling that it is a level-grind? Partially? It's turned the whole thing into a surprisingly comfortable level of (limited, but genuine) social interaction.

To the point where even someone who isn't obsessively grind-focused like me, can genuinely enjoy themselves. Just queuing up for dungeons, Hunting some bounties, and-...

And then FF14 has so many fucking quests that it literally chokes the life out of the gameplay.

As an example, one of their biggest dungeon-draws (bcs high rewards) is a quest that almost everyone hates playing. Because doing that dungeon means watching literally eighteen minutes of unskippable cutscenes.

And that's with them having reduced the amount of cutscenes in that dungeon, because the players complained so much about them.

Like... I'd be perfectly happy replaying the game from the start with a different character, even knowing that leveling isn't some kind of pain-free thing. But the thought of having to restart the fucking Main-Quest? Of having to spend literal days just running back-and-forth to cutscenes?

I'm currently feeling a bit burned-out as a result of the binge I went on to get here, but I'm pretty damn sure that I wouldn't replay this fucking thing even if you paid me for it.

(And, of course, Heavensward also has a Main-Quest continuation that you have to follow. And now I'm not even allowed to fly everywhere to cut down on the "running back-and-forth"-part of my complaints. Not until they arbitrarily allow me to discover flight for the new areas, by going through even more of the Main-Quest.)

(Not to mention that now I have to go back and do even more Class-quests, with their own cutscenes, in order to unlock a bunch of skills.)

(I'm very fond of the "the church is evil because it doesn't let you fuck dragons"-meme, and I'm very much seeing it. But like... come the fuck on. Why is this MMO a feature-length movie-series? Why can't I just play the game and have fun?)
