Worked my new job at the pet store today and I accidentally scared a hamster. So im gonna make it up to him by giving him a loving home

#simon says #i got a good sized tank and as it turns out fish keeping is difficult here bc the water is so hard #and after learning how to handle the animals today and cleaning the hamster tanks and setting them up I feel like I could handle a lil guy #a lil dude #besides this tank is deep enough that I can give him a good amount of bedding that he can burrow in #but yeah I accidentally freaked him out and I felt so guilty that i just wanna give him a nice lil home now :( #I've done hamster research for a while now bc I considered a lil guy in the past #but now im specifically looking into Syrian Hamsters #aka Golden Hamsters aka Teddy bear Hamsters #technically he's not a teddy bear hamster bc he has short hair (according to one hamster website) #but he gives off teddy bear vibes

I think of all the approximate categories of animal, fish are unbeatable in terms of how much it would suck ass to be one. you’re basically the most edible creature on god’s earth and literally everything else wants in on that. like yeah everything eats everything but at least if you’re a bird that lives in the sky you mainly just have to worry about being eaten by other things that are in the sky, but fish? other fish are only the beginning of your problems. not only does everything in the ocean that’s bigger than you want to eat you, so do most things on land given half a chance. there are things in the sky that evolved specifically to come all the way down just to eat you. and you don’t even have arms to punch any of them with you just kinda have to sit there going :o as you’re carried away into the beyond. you have no limbs at all, in fact, so if you ever leave the water you can’t even get back to it like, if something that’s not supposed to be in the water gets in the water it can at least try to swim to shore and get out, but fish are just like “guess I’ll die.” pour one out for fish. they did not ask for this.

#I live on this little inlet that at low tide pretty much becomes a mud flat with a small stream going through the middle #and every day at low tide at this time of year a bunch of salmon get stranded in that stream #and I have to watch them desperately try and thrash their way to deeper water while halfway out of the stream as the sun beats down on them #and seagulls crowd around waiting for them to get tired enough to eat them without too much resistance #and every day I root for them even though unlike them I can see how far the inlet goes and I know they'll never make it #it's existentially horrifying but I too tried to get out there to eat one before I realized I couldn't traverse the mud #and also had no place/means to effectively clean a huge fish #to be clear I wasn't gonna just wade out there and bite into one like smeagol I was gonna bring it back and cook it #I mean I love me some raw salmon but parasites and all that #but as bad as I feel for the slow and agonizing deaths happening every day out there #I am also pained by the fact that the most delicious animal on earth throws itself on my doorstep to die every day #and I can't quite get to it #I feel no guilt over this because I would frankly give any salmon I caught a much more merciful death than the seagulls and sun do

notes for a gag that idk if im gonna actually draw out

#what kind of soap they use [how they feel about the concept of showering] #a lot of people seem to insist that jr would be avoidant to showering on purpose #but idk. kid grew up with no safe/running water i think a hot shower would be so luxurious #i just think his priority is less on getting/being/staying clean and just more on it feels good #fish just doesnt like it #they cant do it too often anyways because i think itd dry them out and also soap probably feels bad in the gills. but he would make them #do it at least every once in a while. on account of they smell like shit. #🐟

You know how they have laundromats (laundrettes as we’d call them here) where there’s a communal place with shared washing machines and if you don’t have a washing machine in your home you can travel there and hire their machines? I need that but for dish washers. I’ve never lived in a home without a washing machine but I have only ever rented one flat with a dish washer and it’s the thing I miss most

#i know they're heavier and more awkward to carry #but I'd love that #my cat's bowl seems to just soak up all the stinky fish food no matter how hard I scrub #and i really just need it to go in a dish washer for a minute lol #non royal #housing #cleaning

It's still MerMay, right?

Right?

I still get a chuckle out of how worried we were when Charlie Weber was shaving his beard on HTGAWM and the instant relief when it cut to him beardless and still hot.

Good for him. Great for us.

[itsnotalemon]

I'm going to explode

WHY IS IT SO HARD TO FIND RESOURCES FOR BUILDING SELF CARE HABBITS AS AN AUTISTIC ADULT???

PLEASE I JUST WANT TO KNOW WHAT HELPS OTHER AUTISTIC ADULTS BUILD A HABIT FOR BRUSHING YOUR TEETH

But every FUCKING search is like!!! How to get your autistic child to brush their teeth!!! Fun fact, I don't have mommy and daddy to play with me in the bathroom to make a horrible sensory experience seem fun

HATE HATE HATE HATE HATE HATE HATE

Also, if I see another fucking article from autism speaks while trying to learn how to take care of myself I'm going to start mailing bombs xoxo

#im trying so hard to find a task to pair it with but i cant seem to find anything #cuz pairing one task with another is how i get a lot of chores that i hate done #like #if i do laundry i play on my xbox while i wait #if im cleaning my fish tanks i get to listen to my radio really loud #if i take a shower i listen to music so i can time myself #and stuff like that #but idk what to pair ot with #music would be too overwhelming #theres not something that needs to be cleaned like laundry multiple times a day #i used to brush my teeth in the shower and then after that i was able to transition to brushing my teeth outside of the shower #but only after i took a shower #but now showering is a difficult task for me im only just building a habit with again #RAUGH #i wish i could be normal #i wish easy things were easy for me #lemon post

Apparently a video of a Starbucks worker has come out where they’re complaining about working an eight hour shift, twenty-five hours a week, and they’ve only got four people (one called out) working the floor and it’s super busy.  And they filmed it while still at work.

I get there’s a lot about work culture needs changing so there’s more balance, but that’s ridiculous.  I even saw someone try to defend it, saying there were only four people working.

And?

I get retail and customer service sucks, and I get that it gets busy, and that people can be really rude.  But four people on the floor is doable.  It does require, however, having a work ethic and finding a rhythm.  Heck, I was at a college with a Dunkin that would have about four or five people on the floor- and it doubled as a Baskin-Robbins.  Guess how busy that place got after convocation (a thrice weekly thing involving almost ALL the students and ending just about lunch time).  Yeah, probably sucked.  But they were able to do it.

Scheduling more people to work isn’t the answer.  You end up putting too many people on the floor, and then the company ends up paying people to do nothing, or worse, just get in the way of things.

The answer is getting a work ethic.  Unfortunately, as much good as my generation and the next are trying to do in changing work culture, from what I see, it’s brought on not by actually setting boundaries, but rather the lack of a work ethic and lack of care for fellow employees.

And to Christians, I say this is wrong.  Paul said that in whatever we do, do it for the glory of God.  Can we honestly look at our work and say we’re working at a standard that would be for the glory of God?  Or are we focused on how we don’t like our job, and the injustices of it that we’ve resorted to doing subpar work instead of setting clear boundaries?

The busyness sucks.  Dealing with rude and upset customers sucks.  But it sucks even more when you’re working with someone who has no work ethic and doesn’t care how it impacts the rest of the team.  So the people like the Starbucks worker lose my sympathy.

#rant #that doesn't cover every in and out #I used to work retail #and my brother used to work McDonalds #we'd have sucky customers yes #but it was made worse by coworkers who didn't pull their weight #and if you're sitting on the floor of your work area crying about having to work 25 hours a week and it's busy at the coffee shop #that would tick me off #because apparently it's not that busy or you wouldn't have time to sit there filming instead of helping the other three #I had a coworker who decided he was going to clean the fish tanks on our undeniably busiest day of the year (vet clinic day) #I was left at the front alone to handle vet patients #customers #messes made by vet patiens #and the phone #because it was just the two of us #but at least he wasn't filming how busy it was and was actually doing something

Seriously thinking about getting a fishing license but like. What if I caught something?

#I don't know how to clean a fish #And unlike with bow hunting I can't just drag it to a local butcher and let him keep half of it as payment #I don't think #I suppose I could ask the butcher

What made you decide on pescitarianism I feel like most communists I meet are either vegans or regular without a ton of in between

To be completely honest it was a decision I made when I was just graduating high school and barely even a communist yet, primarily for health and environmental reasons. I thought it would be a way to ease myself in to full vegetarianism or perhaps even veganism somewhere down the road but that hasn't transpired yet. Cutting out red meat and poultry was comparatively very easy, I think I would have a much harder time cutting out seafood and certain non-meat animal products.

#i've since grow to question how much benefit a pescatarian diet has for the environment ofc #not like I'm catching and cleaning the fish myself #but i've stuck with it regardless #I don't miss red meat or poultry #pescatarianism
