WHY do I always think I'm two years older than I am? WHY?

#this is embarrassing at this point #i keep telling people i'm older and then correcting myself #and it sounds like i'm trying to seem younger than i am (cringe) #but no #i'm just extremely dumb #it's honestly getting kind of ridiculous

listen the mastermind job has flaws but i kind of. love it?

#yes his ability to make people magically fall asleep--alphas theory aside--was ridiculous #but my god. there's both some really funny moments #and genuinely good emotional beats #the whole thing about sophie not being in the book #and honestly i just really like the character of the fake mastermind guy hes so funny. scrungly. #and the whole insight into nate being the only one to appreciate the accountants at IYS #and this guy being like 'he was so supportive! and kind!' and they'r elike #'NATE? NATE FORD? WHO TALKS TO YOU LIKE YOURE DUMB?' #'always there with a nice pep talk....' #'HIS PEP TALKS LITERALLY MAKE PEOPLE CRY YOU FUCKING LUNATIC!!!' #and how he's genuinely so earnestly like 'no let that guy go! threaten me all you like but don't hurt him!' #and everything about harry being kidnapped #getting the goons to fucking unionize basically lkgjfgkhjgh #and nate being so proud of them.... #there's so much going on that is excellent #i get why it gets back flack for really being a highlight of a persistent problem in l:redemption (ie the sillier tone #/stretchier reality/more librarians-esque shenanigans versus more grounded og leverage) but like. i genuinely really like this episode lfkg #i love this silly little character i love the crews interactions etc #im only halfway through my rewatch so i may have forgotten something #gertspeak #leverage redemption #leverage #'i make lists. groceries mostly.' - harry the funniest lawyer alive

Tbh I think if someone called me kitten I might claw their throat out.

#It's really honestly the same with the word princess it feels so demeaning and ridiculous to me it makes me violent #also side note I'm kind of staying out of kink stuff a bit right now which is part of my break which I'm only okay at taking lmao #but even so I keep trying to read posts and i'll get like 3 words in and I'm like okay I'm out #but it's because even if I was actively trying to engage in kink stuff it's not stuff I'm into but it's kinda funny to me that that's my #reaction cause normally I might finish reading it out of pure curiosity lol

scholastic book fairs allowing people to "opt out" of diverse books..... claiming it's either allow schools to "opt out" or not offer the books at all.... oh it's so over...

#the total backslide we are taking right now. #honestly this is the kind of shit that motivates me to write more #like i dont really think my work is anything special but #i remember reading birdland & how much that story meant to me at the time #which is wild now. i didn't get into interactive fiction for another 5 years. i didnt even know what that was at the time #and its like if my story can have that effect for even just ONE person it will be worth it #but seeing what kids have to deal with now... #the book banning has gotten so ridiculous and now you can just OPT OUT??????? #just OPT OUT of entire groups of children. theyre not allowed to see themselves or their experiences anywhere #these people are all going to hell forever

❝ Seeing more and more people actually think that dating isn't meant to last, it "only ever ends in marriage or just ends", makes me pretty thankful Vegito isn't ignorant like that. ❞

#amita // ❦ ic ❦ #/ bruh 💀 i honestly hate how some ppl deadass think \ #/ marriage is some magical; meaningful thing when in reality \ #/ theres nothing inherently different between a married couple & an unmarried one \ #/ like. getting married doesnt just suddenly transform you into something else. you're still the same person you have been \ #/ & the relationship is still the same; you're just legally bound to your partner now lol \ #/ some ppl can & have had relationships that last far longer than many married couples'. and they never end up marrying. so??? \ #/ sorry for the tag rambling but man. this kind of mindset is just. so ridiculous \

tell me your failed/embarrassing flirting stories to make me feel better, i’ll go first: today i said “get out of my way” forgot to say “i’m kidding” then immediately said “bye”

#it is awful having feelings for someone you know and have an established friendship with #but crushing on someone i barely know is knew to me and i legit feel like an idiot every time i do something stupid like this #i can’t just. talk to the guy #if i say hey and he says sup i say ‘sup indeed’ like what the fuck is that #i can barely even say hello to him #don’t get me wrong i’ve DONE it but most days i’m like #ah fuck there he is #okay you can do it just say hi #just say what’s up #and then he’s already gone #also. like. the setting we’re in is soooo not good for talking or flirting realt because um. it’s work he’s my coworker.. so um. do i fuckin #ask him for his number?? or to hang out??? but like. he’s kind of a stranger to me what do i want to hang out for 🧍 #but like. ​i dont want to do that until i have at least one successful interaction #or like. an actual conversation. #which is gonna be really hard to manage because he doesn’t talk much at all to anyone and i really only talk if someone talks to me first or #i’ll say something absolutely idiotic and ridiculous (and honestly i do that no matter what) #anyway so um. i guess i’m just gonna keep making a fool of myself until i get it right and hopefully i don’t screw it up 🥴 #i lost all my confidence in the last year and i cant do anything chill or smooth anymore (i was never that good in the first place but at #least i could PRETEND i knew what i was doing. like i could sell it. the whole weird and lost bit.) #anyway. i felt better for like 5 minutes when some guy at the gas station flirt failed with me on the way home. but that’s partly my fault #too oops. in his defense he probably could not see that i had headphones on bc upon mirror inspection they were well blended with my hair #but i was waiting to cross the street and this guy tried to like nod and smile and i did not know it was to me until i got to the other side #where the gas station was and and like. tried again and i awkward half smiled and saw his face get all mushy and confused like mine FELT 20 #mins before when i’d flopped so hard trying to flirt and by the time i’d processed WAIT i think he was FLIRTING WITH ME i was already gone 🤡 #but at least it ended better than the poor 14yo who very confidently asked for my number #who. i shit you not. SCREECHED for a solid 44.5 seconds and bolted the other direction when i said sorry im 21 #his friends were standing there like wtf too and one was like i am so sorry about him 🤦 #cheers to being fools universe

Surely I am not the only person who got a little annoyed by how many times Loki did the hair flip in the first episode of S2, it's not his entire personality guys

#there are other ways to get your hair out of your face #it starts to feel kind of weird after the fourth or fifth time #just sprinkle a dash of hair flipping here and there it doesn't need to be his main character trait #little facetious but honestly not much #by the end of the episode I was like what the heck why is he flipping his hair like that every couple of minutes it's getting ridiculous #but that's just my opinion #loki #Loki season 2 #hair flipping #marvel #mcu #marvel cinematic universe #mcu salt #/jesting #....mostly #idk there's a certain tone to this opinion that's nebulously in between joking and honest #anyway! #martianbugsbunny opines

yeah, having a found family dynamic with byan is cool, but have you considered having a pointlessly petty, antagonistic but in a fun way kind of dynamic with them instead?

#perks can range from childish sniping at one another to full on fist fights over dumb and inconsequential things #one of you is always having a good time but if it's not you then it's a miserable experience #ahjsdsd i'm just really fond of byan having ridiculous beef with someone but also kind of liking them enough to keep hanging around #it's always so funny to me and it's honestly tragic that i haven't got more of these #however the fact that they've kind of ended up in one of these dynamics with a cat ALMOST makes up for it #no you don't get context for that bc it's even funnier without it #━━ ˟ ⊰ ✰ OOC ⋮ DON’T @ ME.

#i have few controversial™ thoughts #i honestly don't know what kind of a fuckall contract this is but it's very clear that holivia isn't a pr stunt and that she's a beard #and she's doing everything and more with that knowledge and lording it over him #i also have a feeling that most of these pap walks and her being around him were non negotiated in the sense that #she's literally just showing up every fucking where and making sure she's seen and so they're gonna have to get along with it #i also think that she (and her team) are looking into what the gp and the fandom thinks every minute of the day #because like. remember there was this thing where pregnancy rumours and next thing she was wearing baggy clothes? #and then like. she knows none of his songs are ablout her but she's trying so hard to make it about her #like. with the baggy clothes thing coming immediately after album release and little freak having the lyric #' you hide the body all that yoga gave you' #i feel like as a social experiment if you said something like ooh harry likes woman in bright yellow dresses #you'd see her in a bright yellow dress in the next few days #i hate to say this but she's extremely clever and she sees everything and tries to fit herself into the narrative #we talked about how uncomfortable he looks around her and how they're always ten feet apart and now we get kissing pics? #and yeah given the mp teaser release it kinda makes sense but doesn't mean any of this is right #she's a diabolical narcissistic who's riding on the 5 seconds of fame like it's her last breath on this planet #and i say this with no malice but she really needs to seek mental help at this point #like always wearing his merch. and like it's very proprietary in nature. #she's seriously showing stalker fan behaviour at this point and it's ridiculous #holivia #soni rambles

There are a lot of things about us that probably make sense if you know that roughly 99% of our skills are picked up in order to help us repair and maintain Old Shit that people either give away or sell for incredibly low prices thanks to it being something that one needs to acquire Specialized Skills to repair or maintain.

#we speak #we can call ourself a jack of all trades if we want to sound fancy about it but its not 100% true #we're a jack of trades that have become relevant while hunting through secondhand listings and thrift stores #for things that are broken enough to be severely discounted but not so broken as to be Unfixable #which means we go into a lot of things with the mindset of repair and maintenance and we have a Decent Amount of craftsman skill #but we are fundamentally not the kind of person who builds things purely from the ground up #we are the kind of person who picks up a half-broken object and then figures out how to Fix it #we are unfortunately also the sort of person who goes into Fixing Things where it might honestly be easier to replace the thing #when people say “work smarter not harder” we are the target audience. unfortunately we will continue to work harder not smarter #and it causes problems for us that we will either outstubborn or simply die to #anyways. if you live in our area and you have old objects you wish to get rid of we will take them #we have a sudden outpouring of Space now that we live in an apartment and not One Single Room #and we are fully willing to put in the hours it takes to maintain ridiculously fiddly antiques

it is tremendously funny that I made it four and a half years into university before I finally stopped giving a fuck about my grades & when I stopped giving a fuck it happened suddenly and all at once. i am turning in complete dog shit and I don’t feel even a little bit bad lmfao

#my prof is horrible & teaching the most out of date medical-model ‘objectivity’ stuff & giving ridiculously triggering & invasive assgts #and I’m like do you know what Laura? you’ve done it! You’ve finally pushed me over the edge. I am a god among men and I don’t care. #I care about the people at my placement and I care about the knowledge and skills I need to hone #And I do not care even a LITTLE bit about the grades you give me on these terrible social diagnosis assignments. #Mary Richmond is NOT going to fuck you. god bless. #I’m getting this degree and I’m leaving. #rhi talks #adventures in academia #it’s honestly kind of sad but this prof has fully crushed any love I had for this program #I’ve had a lot of amazing teachers here and taken a lot of amazing courses #But this semester is just two classes with her plus my reading course #And I’m learning MUCH more from that reading course & through my placement than I’m learning from her. #much more stuff— and much better and less harmful stuff. #so I’m focusing on that and I’m not sorry! #it’s just funny #like I’ve turned in stuff that I knew wasn’t perfect before #But I always felt like crap about it #now it’s like. give me a 65. Whatever. Full send. Passing grade.

NAQI ‘SALCAM aka Qey

Kells’ partner on the battlefield and off. Within the Covenant he was ranked as an Ultra though this was for a short period of time, as not long after he achieved the rank he joined the Sangheili forces that joined the UNSC against the Covenant. Ambitious and driven, it only took him getting pinned and straddled by Kells once for him to wonder what else there was outside of the covenant. Even before joining the UNSC he found their medics, and the respect they were given, interesting. Among the Sangheili doctors are seen as dishonorable for spilling blood outside of battle. After joining the UNSC forces and, more specifically Kells’ unit, he tends to alternate between fighting by the side of his partner and keeping the medics protected. When not in battle and not by Kells’ side, he can be found in the infirmary learning how humans heal in the hopes to take the knowledge back to Sanghelios.

Though he presents himself as regal and noble he’s somewhat of a goof who loves to experiment with human items. Sangheili upbringing taught him a strict code of honor that is loosened with each day he spends among the marines. He didn’t understand the pranks and jokes they played in the beginning and thought they were truly mocking him; Kells’ own social awkwardness didn’t help as she couldn’t explain the behavior either. He’s developed an odd sense of humor but is the more easy going and verbose between himself and his partner.

He has several notable features, including a darker orange heterochromatic strip in his eye, two white dots on his face, and two large scars.

#halo oc #sangheili oc #sangheili #naqi #naqi 'salcam #he straight up got straddled by a buff strong woman once and went 'how do i get more of that' #'i will become a heretic for that to happen again' #most elites are some sort of dark grey so i made him a greyish blue and gave him countershading #as well as a white mark on his chest bc why not??? #qey is my baby #he made it to ultra by being able to not berserk at the sight of a human and being clever #he's honestly rather mischievous now that he knows he can be #he got saved by human medics when he got the scar on his chest #he was a little upset - by nature of his culture - that they didn't let him die but when he realized doctors didn't also shed blood #outside of battle and could actually HEAL without it he got super interested in medicine #kells thinks its kind of funny #his favorite pranks are pretending he doesn't understand english when around the new marine recruits #and making up ridiculous fake sangheili customs to those who don't know any better #they're always harmless ones and he's managed to convince some other sangheili to get in on the fake customs #he's a fake noble goober who loves sparring with his buff gf and learning medicine

ah fuck

it's my dad's birthday tomorrow but I'm mad at him so I'm not sure what to do :T8

#monster noises #got complicated feelings about him in general #but right now I'm actively mad but I don't want to get into it with him by saying anything or.. not saying anything #y'know? #granted idk if he would even Notice if I neglected to text him e-e #And it's not that he's a bad man to argue with #honestly he's pretty reasonable and whenever I've told him off for something he's sat and listened and discussed it #(not that the conclusion reached is always great but more so that he's not the kind of dad to go off the handle #and act ridiculous when faced with frustration from one of his kids) #but also I don't have the eeeeeeenergy #to enter that discussion with him right now #but to wish him a happy birthday would feel slightly hollow #not disingenuous #I Would want him to have a good birthday #but my heart wouldn't Truly be in it and that feels wrong to me #and also I just don't want to Fucking talk to him
