I don't wanna go back to the hotel, I don't wanna!!!!!!!!!!

#the things we do bc we're poor #;; #the amount of horrified looks I've gotten from coworkers after I tell them where I'm staying #my last uber driver asked if i was scared being in the hotel alone in a bad area #honestly no bc it's not the people im afraid of #like sure. im cautious #i keep to myself and they keep to themselves and we're cool #it's the disgustingness of the environment that kills me #that room is so gross #if i dont find an apartment by the 18th then i'll be moving over to the hotel next door if their prices are cheaper #the sign says 250$ a week so I'm hoping 500$ for two #would save me 200$+ compared to where im at now and might actually be nicer #sob i just want a nice place to live why is that so much to ask for ;;

examining your relationship with your art can be fun

but watch out

#examine too hard and you'll have a crisis #or *another crisis if you're like me #sometimes yeah i think about it too hard and then i get the intense prey instinct #to chuck my tablet into a field and then take off sprinting in the other direction #though i know id just come creeping back like a cautious but curious deer. get a little closer. run away #closer. jump back. poke the tablet and run away. come back and poke it again. #its the 'what am i doing? am i doing what i want to do? am i enjoying this? is it hurting me?' #will admit i have these thoughts every other day #ill have like a good bit of fully enjoying art & what im scribbling #and then suddenly ill wake up the next day and its terrifying and Too Much and huh??? HUH??? #i want to draw but im so so scared <3 but im being sooooo brave about it <3 #anyway i think we should all destroy our electronics and run screaming into the woods #OH MY GOD SOON I CAN DO THAT. #not the electronics - i mean the running into the woods part #oh im so excited. when its all too much i can just walk in nature with no one around #that Will fix me! for sure! #when the Art Fear™️ comes back i can just... go away for a few hours and touch some motherfucking grass #AND MAYBE FORAGE SOME CHICKEN OF THE WOODS. I AM DYING TO HARVEST WILD CHICKEN OF THE WOODS. #LITERALLY HAS BEEN A LIFE GOAL FOR YEARS NOW #when the Art Fear™️ creeps in i can get some big chickeney mushrooms and cook em up. refresh my soul.... #absolutely unprompted #but yeah sometimes i wonder if im drawing for myself or others. like drawing for others is fine but... i think there's a fine line #am i balancing it? am i Indulging enough? am i doing what i want to do enough??? #are my people-pleaser tendencies consuming me again? am i feeling Pressure? hm. yeah its crisis time #am i living how i want. am i enjoying how i want. am i interacting with welcome home the way i want to. #i think im going to go do the dishes....

SHOCKING: world's nicest friendliest man you know is actually lonely. more at 7.

#wearing your heart on your sleeve must be hard isnt it. #i just been thinking about this a lot. & plan to make a meta of it eventually. #clark is a classic case of checking up on everyone. happy to be with everyone. thoughtful. but who checks up on him? #less people then you think unfortunately. #clarks lonliness is unique. its not just the act of having no one around. but that he was raised to safeguard himself #and kept that habit for YEARS. imagine being a natural born social butterfly but from childhood into your mid 20s you just had to #pretend to be someone else. or never let anyone know the truth. he always felt guilty in his early years hiding what he was with EXTREMELY> #CLOSE people. because he wanted to be as close as possible. but how could he dump the burden of “im an alien! dont tell the goverment” whic #later turns into “im superman! can you keep that secret with you as well?” #while its easier for him not to admit who he is. for a long time admitting hes a super powered being = burden to others in his mind #to them. to his family. it would always slightly change over the years. #i just cant iterate enough tho he is happiest helping people or working with his friends but atthe end of the day its just him. #this is why i love 1 particular animated movie...clark was shown to be overly cautious to reveal who he is. #believing its a burden.. that HE is a burden if he shows his entire self to someone. even to lois #u_u eventually clark tells lois ( in comics ) and that helps. but he still has his habits..shes an exception. not the rule. #so yeah make sure to tell your local clark you care him. #this is also why when he is like... told off by his friends over his powers ( i.e one time batman scolded him for not doing enough ) it jus #hits even harder. a reminder to him sometimes? that hes in his own bubble of this world or smth

im fucking desperate here, but im not desperate enough to go on reddit somone plz say something nice abt my appearance plz?

#transmasc #mlm #transgender #gay #am i ugly? #idk i look like im 15 tho #im not putting my age on the internet but im sure as hell not 15 #im definitely pathetic but i do not care anymore #someone say something nice that makes me feel ok tho #im not like depressed but i kinda am hating my appearance and vulnerability #i prob will delete this #so thats fun #aziraphale vibes ig? #i just wanna be a bear #i wanna be a bear so bad #but i grow no hair and my genetics are shit #am i being too cautious abt my age? #yes #has it been drilled in me since birth to not put ur age on the internet #also yes

okay the website of my local church w the pride flags out front actually really slaps they have like 5000000 choirs and a page on their specific beliefs that is pretty slay actually, unfortunately for the part of my brain that thinks choosing to do this is insane for me

#like to be honest it seems very tailored to the things i would like to get out of going to church if i were to actually follow through on #this #particularly their attitude toward doubt and sin #doubt is welcome and even an expression of faith? intriguing! #sin is a part of what makes us human? thats what i think! #i however relish in sin and this may make me incompatible with ANY church #perhaps their response would be that what i was taught was sin is not actually sin and we will see if that sticks to me or not #i dont really like the concept of sin regardless of whether god is forgiving about it or not but i guess that would lead me to the last tag #like if we can agree that certain things are bad then sure i guess theoretically i can get on board with the concept of sin #there are some reads of the bible that lean more leftist or queer that intrigue me but which i don't know much about #if anywhere's gonna be open to that it'd probably be this church #they've got a food pantry as well which is nice. like as a church you SHOULD be doing mutual aid i think but you know #i think i would always relish in being a little blasphemous though. thats the spice of life thats why im alive #im rereading this. who the fuck says relish #thank god for the industriously cautious part of my brain though because i'm doing so much fucking research before even daring to step foot #in there #on the sect and on the church itself #i think this would be very much a me reading the bible to shape it to my life and beliefs thing rather than the opposite #maybe the real reason i want to go to church is so i can dom god #karinyo.txt

Airheaded: If you put a milkshake in one yard and crack a cold one in another yard, which yard would the boys go to?

Main Hero: Schrödinger's boys

Cool: FUCK

Energetic: What about cracking open a cold milkshake?

Scientist: As we all know, the milkshake brings the boys to the yard. The presence of the boys is a prerequisite for the cracking open of a cold one, but cold ones do not have any inherent boy-attracting abilities. Milkshakes, however, do. All else being equal, the boys would proceed to the milkshake yard. While it is possible to announce the presence of cold ones in the hope of attracting some boys, the pull of the milkshake is much more powerful by comparison.

Cautious: Mind you, all of this nonsense hinges on whether or not the boys are back in town

omfg im so stupid

my old water heater for my turtle tank was one of those shitty preset ones that only heats the water up to like 75 degrees. i finally upgraded to an adjustable 200w heater but i like, didnt account for just how sensitive it is. i turned it a little bit too far and i woke up to the tank reading 85 degrees f. holy fuck my turtle was in the hot tub

#for context most aquatic turtles prefer their water at like 75 to 79f #they can tolerate higher or lower temps for a short period of time they arent fragile #theyre like the opposite of fragile theyre invasive af.... #but i feel so bad im sorry benji...i cook u.... #turtle soup........... #ooc. #tbd. #not rp related. #sticking my hand in the tank like why is it so warm???? #oh lol #always be super cautious when you adjust the temp on your heater thats for sure

so i applied for a DREAM JOB and out of 6000 applicants!!! I ended up in the final 15 😟

…and I did SOOOOO soooooo well til the very last round 😔 i accidentally became privy to some scathing information from the judging panel. ouuuuuuuchhhh lol my insecurities.

proud of myself for being true to myself and getting far as i did, though.

#also i got covid so feeling a bit self pitying at the moment #i honestly have massive beef with their criticisms #i left this country when i was 5 and have ended up with a lot of cultural differences #sorry English ppl reading this but i feel like the UK is very caught up on appearances. for example: #it’s an outdoorsy job and the panel were unimpressed i didn’t come in my hiking boots + wet weather gear #umm…. yeah because we are SITTING INSIDE ON A SUMMER’S DAY??? #it felt like posing to me? i grew up in rural NZ so I’ve spent majority of my life in the bush #PS most of the hiking boots i did see were obviously pristine and never taken on an actual hike 🙄 #yes i own that stuff. no im not gonna wear it just to prove a point. i wore jeans and the same shoes ive been wearing while hiking across #europe these last 2 months. #also the NZ wilderness is so much more rugged like these hikes in UK/europe would barely count as a casual day walk to me #so our standards are very different #and we both left feeling quite unimpressed with each other I think #i’ll provide one more rant: one of the exercises involved wiring up a plug. i did it successfully but failed cos I didn’t plug it in after #well um. my mama is a scientist and taught me not to fuck with electricity unless i’m 100% sure #yes I did all the wiring right but it was still my first time so I’m being cautious. apparently that’s a bad thing 🤷‍♀️ #enough rants from me but basically yeah lots of little things like that which I disagree with

"people can't talk about feminism in any significant way without being accused of being a r*dfem" is very annoying to see on my dash when people Still put r*dfem takes on my dash without even thinking about it. you need to change your circles and the people you engage with b/c this is not universal, i see people talk abt misogyny and the patriarchy every day and they don't get accused of being t*rfs or r*dfems and pretending this is universal is gonna make everyone who rbed the thing that was like "being a young girl is curling up into a ball and wishing so deeply that you were a boy so you could feel like a human instead of always feeling pain" be like oh shit i was right lol like those posts ALREADY circulate uncriticized stop acting like trans people begging you to stop drinking r*dfem koolaid for a SECOND are ~ruining feminism~

#i will defend your right to say 'i hate men'. i will NOT defend ur right to say.this?????? #this is not a problem that has been solved yet and in fact r*dfems and gnder crits are GAINING power #thru people falling for their special brand of feminism #so i am so so so sorry there are people who are cautious about r*dfem rhetoric. i am So goddamn sorry #did u know theyre criminalizing minors transitioning. did you know an entire state made it illegal for ONE trans girl to play a sport #do you know so much of this is from t*rfs and r*dfems gaining ground in the west #can you find another goddamn boogeyman people dont even care abt trans issues and im NOT sayi g you have to #frankly i am used to literally everyone not giving a fuck. BUT can you NOT talk abt how being cautious abt #radical f*minism is RUINING feminism. im so. #like u wanna leave trans ppl alone on one thing im jsut asking bc we are ALREADY going thru it #brandon oscillates #negative #discourse #also i wanna reiterate feminism and feminist circles untouched by transphobia literally exist #i listen to them. i talk to them. it is an important cause #the same person on twitter who was indepth covering the misogyny surround the heard/depp case #ALSO covers trans issues. and no one accused them of being a r*dfem. #like stop making it trans ppl's problem u cant find ur community. #'we're letting r*dfems win by letting them take over the conversation on feminism' #this is not happening but u sure r invalidating a trans issue #but also like out of anything u r NOT going to make me see this post on fucking tumblr dot com. fucking r*dfem paradise. #twitter does not make me see these takes just so you know. literally just this website

the xenophobia in genshin is crazyyy 😭

#likeeee within the own game world u have paimon being the stupid lil 'voice' of the player thats literally just used to say rude shit #that u cant even refute.... like the worst offenders is that she straight up says shit like 'theyre fatui u cant trust them' #or 'theyre eremites u cant trust them' #like thats crazy how the two groups we 'cant trust' are based on russians and middle easterners???? #anyways i like this game but i have SO many gripes about random shit like this thats bad #some really specific combat stuff annoys me #like umm why does yelan's hydro aimed shot cooldown at a set rate when not fighting but not while fighting?? why not just make it the same? #or why cant shieldwall mitachurls take damage from behind their shields if u shoot them FROM BEHIND?? the shot literally goes thru them #it just makes using ganyu super annoying bc i use her cryo construct skill to divert the enemies so i can shoot them but with shieldwalls #they turn away and then i just still cant do damage until theyre attacking?? even if theyre frozen?? #hashtag just combat mechanics that dont make sense #also why tf do you sometimes just randomly lose grip on walls ur climbing and start sliding down like ????? #i always seem to go off on the tags of my own posts and never in the post itself huh. i coulda just written all this #anyways this post inspired by zhongli story quest starting with - archeologist guy who paimon immediately goes OH NO A FATUI DROP UR WEAPON #like im sorry since when are we teyvats cop?also the dude literally isnt holding a weapon which he points out but the game still makes u go #'hes fatui we have to be cautious' when the dude is nothing but nice. imagine ur doing ur job and some random girl and her floating toddler #try to fucking arrest you for literally just chilling #anyways and then the dude is like sure you can come along :) for no reason when we were just a dick #bc they have no idea how to write meaningful/realistic npcs jesus christ #sure ppl are like 'who cares its a random NPC' i care its literally so annoying and doesnt make me want to play ur stupid game #also not to mention the pyramid quest in the desert where (worst npc) tirzad is like 'we cant trust these two (his bodyguards!!) - #- because they're eremites' and yeah its whatever disproven by jebrael and jeht being the most slayful NPCs in the game #but paimon still AGREES WITH HIM?? and at that point i was like ok so this sucks but whatever but then #as if that isnt enough after jeht joins the tanit later or wtv u have to go through a whole questline that literally ends w dismantling #their entire village?? its very much reflective of rhetoric like how jeht is the 'only good one of '''them'''' aka thinly veiled racism #like oh its fine because SHE is 'one of the good ones' no fuck you wth #and no having like 2 desert npcs in the archon quest be nice doesnt make up for some of the crazy racist shit they say in the sumeru quests #umm anyways. cant wait for fontaine where the number of characters with non snow white skin will once again be reduced to 0 #because they're french right and poc dont exist in france :( /s #this is probably the longest rant ive ever gone on for this game i literally paused the game to type all that 😭

AHSJSJ in reference to https://at.tumblr.com/weaselishmcdiesel/idk-if-youre-being-serious-in-the-tags-but-if-you/b7me6xnnx57f (i was the anon in question)

its definitely less “official” than proper therapist, but the letter of recommendation for an emotional supper pet you get is in fact from a Real Certified Therapist (at least mine was, i checked), and it carries no indication of being provided through the website, so i doubt people would be like “oh this isn’t legitimate”

in general is it cutting corners? certainly, but it is a good option if you dont have access to/funds for a proper diagnosis, and if you genuinely think an emotional support animal would make your life better, its worth researching. i dont know if i’d call it “fake” per say, but it is for sure easier to fake than yknow a proper diagnosis, so i see why this would be an issue nonetheless. two sides to everything etc etc

(if youre curious to know more or see my letter i’m happy to send it through dms or whatever)

oo, erm, please take the rest of my response in the context that i really have, maybe a collective of 3 hours worth of research on this topic as i was originally planning not to use an ESA site at all, and im not aware of the specifics of any experience using official, medical, therapy options.

im really glad that everything went smoothly for you, and i hope that more people can have access to treatment just as easily and with just as much documentation to prove it.

But the conduct surrounding the treatment of mental health is unfairly complicated so it's not unwise to be picky about which route one takes to receive the documentation and care they require. ideally, no one would have to worry if the letter they acquired IS legitimate and they could collect the proper benefits. unfortunately, i dont know if my school cares about my mental health more than their precious building so much so that they would dig around and find some critical loophole to keep my pet out

the research i DID do uncovered reviews stating that people had their pettable letters denied and in some cases there was fine print that prevented them from getting refunded. the question at the end of the day is do i trust the ESA site to give me valid documentation MORE than i trust my school to be OVERLY, even MALICIOUSLY nitpicky about the legitimacy of my paperwork.

and, i personally would have to be cautious since it's more than a simple drive my cat would have to endure but a plane ride too, and another one back if he's suddenly denied an ESA position, so i can't risk the letter having even one pitfall. i do hope you understand everyone's apprehension ^^ I will continue doing my research and hope that in the end i dont give my school one more reason to be even more strict with ESA especially for people who need them more than me (because there are, probably, people who poorly fake the papers and then make it harder for the rest of us as the other user is calling attention to)

#if it's alright i dont want to take more opinions on this! not mad but i would like to conduct my research with a little less bias :) <3 #plus i dont want to stir anymore controversy alright? #and ofc i dont want to have to reveal the specifics of my situation if it comes down to it haha #but your input is appreciated- dont worry too much about me ok! #im sure that whenever i get my cat ill update everyone ahha ill never shut up about him #i saw your second ask and i havent even scoured the whole website for that option yet- i AM busy with homework haha #weasel speaks #asks! #i hope nothing comes off as aggressive i just want to explain the other side fairly #it's never in poor interest to be cautious! if someone really needs their ESA im sure theyll figure out a way to do it #.....hopefully..... but that isnt always the case #but i also doubt those people are coming to my blog for advice

being an 80HD child resulted in a lot of incidents that felt like teleporting

#like up until early mid teens i remember getting into situations where i could not explain why i had done it #im thinking of the Three separate falling off building incidents where like #if you had asked me or my parents i was absolutely not a daredevil seeming child by nature i seemed very cautious when i was at neutral #but then something would catch my attention and everything would shut off immediately like all processes at zero #which means for years ive had multiple memories that were just me Seeing Something and then the consequences #ie me seeing an extremely climbable path up to our neighbors roof awning and then my immediate next memory is me on the roof #0 decision making no deliberation and no recollection whatsoever of the action itself #i remember my mom getting upset and asking why i keep doing shit like that and me being only 30% sure tjat i did it at all #on reflection im really glad my parents didnt literally believe in possession like my aunt did

I really miss Dragon Age 2.

#I’m not sure I can say it was the best one? technically speaking Origins probably is? but it was the one that I liked the story of most. it #hit me deepest. that messed me up but I also loved it. and it was much better designed for cause and effect #dragon age 2 #inquisition is frustrating because half the time - especially w War Room - you pick as well as you can based on all the info you /have/ at #your disposal and it goes ‘hehe you picked Lelianna’s ‘let’s be cautious and scout first’ ^u^ over Josephine’s ‘let’s ask the nobles if they #can help intel gather’ and Cullen’s ‘let’s send our soldiers to look around’. 300 people died ^u^’ #so if you want good results you either re-load or use a guide bc there’s little sense to it & you’re constantly punished not for really your #own choices but just arbitrarily. I used a guide like 3 times the entirety of DA2. I use them constantly for DAI becuase every time I go ‘im #just gonna play normally : )’ ten minutes later I tell some girl the wardens seem cool & she immediately gets brutally murdered #also they constantly have NPcs there to tell you something and die seconds later and it’s so annoying??? in every other DA game you can heal #and save NPCs you find injured but now they go ‘tell my wife…I’m sorry…’ and die and you have a quest to tell their wife ‘sorry I didn’t #give her one of the 40 health potions I was carrying’ or some idiocy. I have NOT ONCE been able to save by healing an NPC when in every #other game I had MANY chances. no heal even EXISTS as a spell in DAI when it’s a basic skill in every other game??? #also the quests are structured so badly half the time I walk into a house and kill a monster and Varric goes ‘ah the High Beam Killer dead #at last’ and I won’t know what the fuck he’s saying At All but some quest marked Spooky Mansion is marked completed and I gain exp without #ever remotely knowing what the quest was in the first place #in DA2 when I got punished I deserved it. in Act3 the Mages with Grace suspected me of turning them in bc I tricked the Templars instead of #killing Thrask and that made sense. I did pick a slightly less safe outcome to protect him. i absolutely never betrayed them but I did take #a risk that put /them/ at risk and it made sense for her to distrust me. In DAI my friends get killed because I’m Qunari no matter what I do #at the war table before or after and they just give me pointless missions about it so I have the illusion of choice and consequence #DAI is obsessed with Only Bad Outcome quests because the Devs are centrists who think there’s no right answer to fucking anything and it #deeply damages the story structure and the quest load out #(I don’t hate DAI I’m just venting. I enjoy many many parts of it. but some I want to destroy rabidly with a hammer)
