man another thing that's been very nice about having moved out of my dad's house is that... i am under no obligation to convey anything to anyone <3 i don't have to tell my parents about my doctor appointments, i don't have to tell people my intentions, i don't have to defend making purchases or arranging my life in a way that makes things easier or more pleasant because people don't even have to know about these things in the first place.
My birthday is next week! In celebration I bought myself an aquarium chiller. For the first time ever I’m having a hard time keeping Otto’s tank as cool as I’d like to. I know it’ll be worse in the Summer so I decided to finally take the plunge.

Wait I just realised I forgot to tell you guys that I looked into all the commission stuff over the weekend, and while that’ll probably still be a ways off I have made a breakthrough:
I have a Ko-Fi now :D
https://ko-fi.com/cbmagus49
Idk how it works or what to do with it yet but it sure is a thing that exists now!
I also messed around with the html on my blog and prettied it up a bit; it’s got a fancy background I made and there’s a Ko-Fi button there now ^^
need to make an HD 2023 version of the Retail Robin meme at some point. so I can make memes of the daily occurances of dealing with the public.
Customer: *puts card into pinpad and does not do anything but stand there for a full minute*
me, wondering if the pinpad froze again: "Does it have any questions on the pinpad?"
Customer: "No."
Me: "oh, it must be frozen again--"
Customer: "It's just been asking me if I want cash back."
Me, internally, 'yeah, that counts as a '''question on the pinpad'''''
Customer: "But I don't want cash back."
Me: "if you look at the touch screen, there will be an orange button right there that says 'no'. You can press that to go to the next screen."
Customer: *hits button*
Customer: *continues standing there not doing anything further for a full 30 seconds*
Me: "Annnd does it say anything else, or does it just say 'processing'....?"
Customer: "Now it's just asking me for a pin."
Me: "In that case you can enter your pin to run it as debit, or you can skip the pin and run it as credit by hitting the green enter button."
Customer: "I don't want to use my pin though. I want to do credit."
Me, repeating, "Okay, to do credit, all you have to do is hit the green button."
Customer: "this is too complicated."
Register: *error noise-- transaction has been canceled due to timing out-- which is around 3-5 minutes of inactivity*
Me: "Okay, the register timed out due to inactivity, if you could remove your card and re-insert it for me--"
Customer: *rips card out and shoves it back in* "This is too complicated!!"
Me: *stands up, leans around register, confirms "no cash back and credit, right?" *and presses the exactly 2 buttons that it takes to complete the transaction and has the card processed in 2 seconds* "Okay, go ahead and remove your card."
Customer: "Don't I get a receipt??"
Me, pointing at the printer which is audibly and visibly chugging away: "As soon as it's done printing, yes, it takes a second,"
Customer: *ignores me and reaches over to the register printer and physically rips the receipt in half and almost jams the printer trying to yank it out before it's done*
Me: *has to open up the printer and carefully extract the other half of the receipt and reset the roller*
Business-to-business payments, or B2B payment processes, are the exchange of currency-denominated value between a buyer and a supplier in exchange for goods or services.
The correct response to calls for black reparations by white working class Americans should be “hey, my ancestors were also exploited! we should get a little something too!” and not actually racist drivel but this is America and we loooove to destroy class consciousness by being as racist as possible.
okay. home. dr said I might have "chronic rhinitis" or "a sensitivity to certain environments" and gave me $133 nasal spray. also ordered me to stop the addictive decongestants so uh. the next few days will be Fun.
anyway she gave me 3 refills of the nasal spray but I'm kinda hoping this will magically clear up somehow bc damn.
