#working late and taking work home

[rainbow-femme]

I love reading definitions of Quiet Quitting

“An employee who is quiet quitting will come into work at their allotted start time, do tasks within their job description, leave at their allotted time, take their full lunch break, and fully use their paid time off and sick leave”

i'm employed now and miserable so i made dog-boy Tozer to suffer a little bit to make myself feel better (he is still a good boy, i'm kissing him on a forehead for taking it so well <3 )

Spoilers for arcane!!

I wonder if Ekko ended up getting curious abt the father/daughter relationship between silco and jinx. I mean, in episode 7 we see a whole alternate universe where silco and jinx are good. I call bullshit if you’re telling me they’re not close over there. So imagine Ekko seeing this and suddenly recontextualizing basically everything he knows abt jinx. Especially if Ekko ends up talking to Silco and realizing he’s not actually that bad of a guy when he’s just hanging out.

I mean, for one, the silly potential of alt!Silco being like “I was a giant dumbass and I needed some damn therapy or at least someone to talk to” and Ekko slowly realizing that maybe the reason Jinx is so fucked up is because her and her evil dad were equally fucked up at the time and just trying to achieve their goals whilst coping, but he can’t say that aloud so what he does say is “huh.” Meanwhile silco is looking at him strange because the dude has the look of someone who just solved the world’s greatest mysteries despite him having heard this info before (in his perspective, at least.)

For two, the angst potential of “hey so I went to another universe where you and your dad Weren’t Evil and he was actually lowkey chill so I wanna know what he was like for you” and for a moment jinx just looks at him in a “wtf” kinda way but then she just accepts it bc That Might As Well Happen (also the added evidence of his little machine and injuries that Were Not There Before) and starts telling him stories ranging from stupid to cute to sad and she’s breaking down halfway through them because lately she hasn’t had that much time to grieve him properly especially since a lot of people hated him so to reminisce with someone who she actually cares abt who is willing to listen and not write her off is therapeutic. Also I just think Jinx absoLUTELY has some hilarious silco stories. They probably bond over the course of the whole thing.

Just remembered that the reason I came on here in the first place was to post art

Cuz I've been drawing still! I just ain't been posting it sdkfjgnsdjf

This is inspired by a Clown post lol Something something Frank's sense of humour being what it is he can't always pay Howdy and sometimes has to ask Julie to pay for him. Hilarious detail. I reference it in fics often enough LOL

Silly lil sketch doodle I did of the friends ever

He stole his hat!

remembering at my last job how my supervisor overheard me telling a coworker "yeah, i try to be on time to things, but i think as a person i just chronically run 2-7 minutes late, so knowing that's a weakness of mine i try to do my best wherever i am to make up for that."

and immediately narced on me to our "if you're not 10 minutes early you're late" sociopathic tyrant of a branch manager, but only the first part. so he pulls me into his office to give me a smug condescending lecture about how "if that's the way you think, you're never gonna succeed in life because there's no industry on the face of this earth where that attitude is acceptable"

fast forward to my current job, where my scheduling & pay system is basically "you will get paid X number of hours to complete this task, regardless of how long that task takes you" and as long as the task gets done within the allotted number of hours? literally nobody gives a fuuuuuck about anything. i try not to, but i regularly roll up 5-10 minutes late and nobody's said anything to me about it in the 7 months i've been here. if i know i'm gonna be more than 10 minutes late i'll text my supervisor a heads up, and the response is always "but you're still coming in, yeah? no worries see you whenever"

Thoughts on mtt

they should travel the multiverse together and see and experience a more peaceful life than all of them ever have (⁎˃ᴗ˂⁎)

also they should get to gnaw at each other like rabies infected dogs 🧡🙏

Workday birthday this year, but still a nice day. Took my traditional birthday selfie—I think it’s fun to look back and see how I change from year to year—which turned into a “quick, before someone walks by my office door and sees me being a dumbass” scenario. 😆

Seeing the newest TADC episode…

And Zooble (future Gooseworx) comforting Gangle (past Gooseworx) is just AAAAAGGHHHH

“Now come on over and hang out with the rest of us. And bring your art too, I always like seeing what you draw”

What if i just sobbed

Been thinking about idw1's outliers lately, and how sort of wild the whole concept is from a worldbuilding standpoint, and it struck me that most confirmed outlier abilities tend to be really useful, or flashy, or powerfully dangerous, and few to none tend to be like, really boring, or totally impractical, or even entirely useless? Which, doesn't really make sense when considering the fact that outlier abilities are seemingly random.

Surely not everyone who's born an outlier gets something useful?

And I don't mean like, "good" useful, but any sort of useful, even if that means you can kill people with your voice, or give a power boost by exploding yourself, those are still "useful".

But surely there had to be some with abilities that were totally impractical, or nonbeneficial, or at the very least just insignificant or purely aesthetic and pointless?
