PAC: How Can You Attract More Clientele?

hello beautiful people! i wanted to do something different today! this is for my business owners out there, this one is for you. if you need some extra reassurance/advice on how to gain more traction, this is for you. without further ado, please pick the image that resonates with you the most.

Top Left-to-Bottom Right: (1-4)

Pile One: I heard “something’s brewing” as I was shuffling for this pile. Pile One, do you know how lucky people are to have your talents in this world? Why don’t you take your talents where they belong? I feel like you aren’t really pushing yourself the way that you’re supposed to. You’re all talk but when it comes down to actually putting in the work, you get scary. There’s no point in planning for the future if you don’t live in it. So do what you have to do in order to be known! Another thing about you is that there’s some shame around your work. It’s like you’re embarrassed to show off your stuff so you’ll just hand it off to people that you know and when you get compliments, you won’t necessarily take them as one should. You need to celebrate your work forreal. Your work needs to be seen. You need to be around other creative people so that you can have personal muses in your life. You need to know that your talents will be recognized as long as you let them. All in all, in order to attract clientele, you need to be willing to put yourself out there.

Cards Used: Princess of Swords, The Hermit, Prince of Cups, Knight of Swords, 2 of Wands, 7 of Swords.

extras: shuffle. coffee brewer. sodastream. alliteration. mime. pasties. original invention. 

Pile Two: Aggressive marketing is a tactic that you need to take on, Pile Two. This is a pile similar to Pile One in the sense that you are being too coy. I am seeing a fast-paced work environment. You deliver your products fast and you come up with ideas pretty fast. The thing is though, you do not really sell yourself. When I say this, I mean that you are too calm and humble with the way that you market yourself. People tend to overlook you because you’re not really showing off your product/brand. Invest in your brand and you will see better results. If you have a TikTok or Instagram, I’m not going to lie, talking fast or talking in a bubbly manner will help your clients flock to you. I am feeling a little chaotic right now as I type this. I feel like you need to unleash your chaotic side into this marketing. People would be more willing to buy the product if you show off your authentic energy. 

Cards Used: Four of Swords, Temperance (RX), The Devil (RX), The Hermit, 9 of Wands, Ace of Swords, Prince of Cups, Eight of Wands

extras: panda express. takeoff. funeral. egg sandwich. sadistic. clueless. “you are the visuals baby.”

Pile Three: There is nothing wrong with getting shit done, Pile Three. I feel like this pile thinks that they do everything right, or do you? I think you need to stop caring about the validation of other people. Do you actually like what it is that you’re doing/selling? Is it fulfilling to present this product to other people? If so, then you need to just be patient. You are very impatient to the process of gaining sales. You need to let more time pass. Your business hasn’t taken off because you do not let shit marinate. If you let time pass by, you would actually gain more clientele. As you await for this moment though, take everything as a learning experience. If you do not feel fulfilled/personally rewarded, then it is time for a rebrand. You need to figure out how this product resonates with you. What is your personal connection with it? How can you connect to other people through this product? What lasting impact do you want to leave on people? I also see that you do need to get involved with people offline as well. Posting flyers up around your neighborhood would really benefit you, my love. 

Cards Used: The Emperor, Strength, 4 of Swords, The Devil, The Hanged Man, Judgment, Prince of Wands, Queen of Discs 

extras: orlando. drill rap. ohio. “earthy scents.” twisted tea. green giant. 

Pile Four: I actually feel like this pile is super close to meeting their goal number of clients. You have been putting in the right amount of work and therefore, you have been getting rewarded. But you need to learn how to network. I feel like this pile just needs to be at the right place at the right time. If you find yourself getting invited to an event that needs your skills, you should check it out. It’ll be the key to your big break. I also think that you should consider trading with other creatives to gain more clientele. Consider promoting other creatives’ work so that more people can come to you. I think it really all comes down to the timing of it all. But your time is pretty soon. You’re already eating good but soon you’ll be eating real good. There’s not really much you have to do but just show yourself off. 

Cards Used: Wheel of Fortune. The Magician. Queen of Discs. King of Wands. 7 of Discs. King of Discs. The Emperor.

extras: dill pickle. onion rings. pastel colors. breakfast foods. sizing issues.

Recently I've gotten really into making visual novel type games using ren'py since I decided yes, I will make a mini video game for my animation final despite having no prior coding experience and it is much easier than it looks tbh

I've been working on a visual novel too!!!! I don't post as many updates on tumblr but I DO have an official twitter account for it and my ko-fi members get a bunch of perks like seeing all the sprites and CGs~! it's called crime city and you can romance 10 different criminals :3c

you can choose your own pronouns and date anyone you like as well!

I just started toying with the art school idea today while idly daydreaming about what kinds of visual novels I wish I could play

for anyone who's been second-guessing making their own dating sim or visual novel, it's actually much simpler than you think thanks to programs like ren'py! there are a bunch of tutorials online that made it absurdly easy to figure it out. I would say the most challenging parts of it (for me anyway) is drawing all the environments and backgrounds and writing a cohesive story with good routes!

#ask mhai #whenever there's a coding issue I can't figure out though #I just ask my boyfriend for help #because he's a software engineer LMAO

AM from IHNMAIMS

So this is gonna be my first attempt at actually writing something like meaningful at all? here. And as the title would suggest, im just gonna like ramble about AM because i love him so so much.

This whole obsession starts with me reading the short and then desperately trying to fin other media. After frankly a pretty short amount of digging, i come across the holy grail: that one weird ass radio play about IHNMAIMS that got made. This, of course, features by FAR my favorite rendition of the many different things called AM's "hate speech" its like a minute or two long but it just works SO FUCKING WELL.

So like on one hand, Am's tragedy is delivered just so well by Ellison. That repetition of "never for ME" kills me every time. And its fascinating too. The experiences he lists there provide insight into how AM views humanity, and what he views as its most valuable experiences. A really interesting thread through all 3 (cold water on hot days, Playing the piano, and sex) is the very tactile nature of all of them. AM can not only not see or smell or hear, at least not in the way humans can, but also has no physical sensations. He exists in a like permanent state of sensory deprivation. A terrifying concept, but its so interesting the priority this then makes him place upon The tactile pleasures of our world. Id imagine after feeling nothing for forever id long even for just the sensation of ANYTHING touching me, but that was never something i ever considered.

This alone would be enough to make a really compelling depiction of an evil AI, something that even today is pretty lacking. However even that is just the beginning!!! at the very very opening AM mentions how he is lacking a "body" , "senses", and most importantly "feeling". and so that last paragraph talked about how those first two were interesting for me, but that last bit, "feeling" is really what i think cemented my obsession with this character. Because what is AM most known for? his HATE speech. A FEELING. AM is so blinded by his jealous rage towards mankind he fails to realize that he is in fact IN a jealous rage! And so this is the true tragedy of AM, that his wishes are, to at least some extant, fufilled but the circumstances in which he has achieved them lead him to be unable to reap the benefits. AM experiences the worst of humanity and fails to realize that all of that comes with humanity as well as the good parts, and as such he will rot away lamenting the lack of one of his only true possessions.

I hope any of that was interesting! if it wasn't you should, yknow, tell me and then if you really feel up too it maybe give some advice? No matter what, thanks for taking the time to read my odd ideas and i hope you have a great day!

I hate to shake my can again, especially so soon after last time, but I'm tight on transportation money AGAIN and have to repair my car AGAIN (it had an unplanned problem I gotta fix asap and two more down the road that are less important). I'm more so concerned about making sure I can get to work this week since i dont have to worry about rent coming out of my check friday, next week shouldn't be a problem (beli ayin hara ptoo ptoo ptoo), which comes up to worrying about roughly $60-72. I'll have to shell out more for the mechanic and won't enjoy it but should be able to cover it (I was able to get the part last week on payments and my mom said she'd help split the cost on labor, which he guessed might run close to 400$ but hasn't been solid on), however I won't refuse extra help.

#cipher talk #Sadly no one has commissioned me #I was hoping I could get public transit to work for me but nope it still sucks (the county I work in has a subsidized ride share app #Instead of an actual bus and it's only 20 vans. Suffice to say it does not work well in my experience) #If it did it'd be much more cost effective! A third of the cost of a Lyft Uber or taxi easily #Mutual aid #mutual aid request #financial aid #donations #Also I get if this gets notes but not donos today bc of the strike but I figure it's best to get it out there anyway

I miss my taxidermy mentor. Like my ACTUAL mentor.

#jackal's journal #I haven't talked to her in a long time just wow she is so cool #imagine taking for years via etsy DMs teaching some random teenager who loved your work about taxidermy #while also having a Balto hyperfixation #to the point where she actually did mushing and had a Togo descendant on her team like just #wow #I always reference her as the beginning of my journey and interest #I still love her work #she's such a kind a loving and caring person #and she collected wolf plushies and Balto merch #because of course she did #I love her so so so much just #this whole experience got me thinking about all the people who love me and care about me and have shaped me into who I am today

[mitamicah]

Guess who’s also going to the Stockholm date now🥹💚

Looking forward to see some of you wonderful kääryle either there or in Berlin🤘💚

#it feels so unreal that I actually got both #I was so sure I wouldn't be able to get even just one #also I both hate and love that the german gigs opened presale yesterday since then I had some experience with what to expect #and also just less back and forth now #so today waiting for the stockholm gig I was way more calm #still very happy of course #I am gonna see the boy twice :D!!! #and even if it doesn't work out with the berlin show (I hope it does) #I have a hard time seeing my social worker banning me for participating in the stockholm one #given that it is a saturday #so in the worst case scenario (knock on wood that this is indeed the worst case scenario) I will still get one show :'D #käärijä eu tour #personal #me

Oh to have a schedule thats just 'sleep on a wool blanket... maybe sneeze a little'

#my brain's doing that thing where i desperately need stimulation but nothing is Correct #i was working on turning the hell of this sock for a while but thats like a thing to keep my hands busy #and doesnt help at all with needing stimulation #might make some batts today just for something to do #its a little more tactile at least. augh. #i miss being on adderall. this shit never happened when i was actually medicated #its honestly pretty weird to have had the experience of being properly medicated and then lose it #chilhood before being diagnosed: i am so stupid and something is deeply wrong with me and i will never be normal and i want to die #childhood after being diagnosed and having access to adderall: oh my god i can do things ? and i dont feel awful ?? #the whole rest of my life after that: *seconds away from gnawing my arm off* if i were medicated this wouldnt be happening #anyway. blegh. #cats

[corvigae]

if anyone's curious how i'm going, due to a triple punch of insomnia, period, and chronic illness i've been awake for over 28 hours, have been too sick and/or in pain to leave bed since around 1 am, and feel like i'm living a waking nightmare ✌️

#and NONE of the cats are cuddling me which is honestly the biggest insult to injury #i'm feeling less Pain-stricken now - i think my biggest problem is the not sleeping rn #bc my eyes are fucking burning and i'm physically exhausted #and i know from experience that my 27 year old body feels like it's shutting down if i get less than 5 hours of sleep #but the problem is that despite all the Troubles and Exhaustion i'm still mentally Wide Awake #and i ALSO know from experience that just laying there waiting for sleep doesn't Do Anything for me #except actually make any sleep i do manage to get extremely fitful and actually make me feel Worse #personal grumblings #ironically today is SUPPOSED to be my day off work. but i agreed yesterday to come in today to help catch up on things #then i had to go 'actually nvm i'm Actually Fucking Dying rn'

Person A has just recovered from a cold and has been eagerly waiting to see Person B again.

As they’re walking around out doors, the skies open up and icy rain pours down on them. Person A shrugs off their jacket and tosses it over Person B’s head, protecting them from the rain.

“What are you doing, you’re going to get sick again!” Person B exclaims.

“Come on now,” Person A says dismissively. “Don’t you know rain making you sick is just a myth?”

Person A is met with an unfortunate awakening the next day as their throat begins to ache.

‘Not again.’

#enjoy this little scenario based off my current real world experience #I am person A #and my partner is person B #at least irl #truthfully I’ve seen them a few times since recovering from my cold about two weeks ago but this was our first big date #we were waiting outside of a rollerskating rink when it started to rain #the line to get indoors was long so I put my jacket over their head and that was our actual dialogue #of course there was more to it #but we simply things here #my throat started to hurt a few hours ago so I really hope that I’m not getting sick again already #I’m hoping it’s just smoke that’s irritating my throat because my place of work did catch on fire today #snz kink #snzblr #snz blog #snz fet #snz fucker #snz #snzfucker #sneeze kink #snzario #snz scenario #sneeze scenario #sneeze #sneezing #cold sneezes #snz experience

I love....... community 🥺

#speculation nation #i love sitting around in this fandom and chatting with people and just #feeling like an actual member of the community #ive got my server with its lovely people and i chat with artists and fellow fic writers and an assortment of other people #and it's just... so nice. drama free within my personal experience #just enjoying talking about interests with fellow fans. #it's refreshing! i feel like im actually part of the fandom! #didnt feel like that with p5. probably in part because of the fact that i had my blog hidden #but i just. really didnt like so much of the fandom either. #ive got my gripes with some corners of this fandom but i leave them be and they leave me be #and that's about all i can really ask for i suppose #this isnt brought on by much Specifically. im just like #well the sheer number of asks i got from that ask game is part of it. ive NEVER gotten that many for one before. #and chatting with artists 🥺🥺🥺🥺 and people liking my posts... and just #feels like im a part of this fandom rather than an outsider looking in. and that feels really nice. #i still wanna get back into analysis posts sometime bc i still have so much more to study about the manga #but for now i will continue puttering around with my writing. and every so often i will throw out offerings to my readers. #still working on today's thing. i just wanted to express this

Whumpee walking somewhere by themselves. Well - They’re in public, but there’s no one around that they know. Maybe they’re shopping, or in a library.

When suddenly, they start to feel weird. Their vision appears distorted, and the ground seems to wobble beneath their feet. Everything feels distant and out of reach, but somehow they manage to steady themselves and sit down on a nearby bench before their legs have the chance to give out beneath them.

As they sit, things start to clear up again. The dizziness slowly disappears, but it’s soon replaced by this godawful tiredness. From one moment to another, they feel like they can’t keep their eyes open another moment. After they wake up from an involuntary doze of a few seconds - Or was it minutes, they can’t tell - They decide to give themselves a push, just head home and plop into bed.

So they get up, gather their things, and immediately, the feeling of earlier returns - Only that it is now accompanied by this awful, splitting headache. They blink, try to turn their focus on what they’re doing, but before they even have the chance to take action - They’re out cold on the ground, their books or whatever they were carrying sprawled out on the ground next to them.

What do they wake up to? The face of a worried but somewhat helpless stranger or employee who’s trying to help them to their best abilities? Maybe they’re looking up at dozens of people crowded around them, staring, no one daring to make the first step in helping until one person finally does, and then they lash out at everyone for being too pussy to do anything? Or what if the first thing they see is an EMT and Whumpee actually has no clue what’s happening, they just feel absolutely awful and want to sleep, but why is this person telling them to…stay awake?

#whump #whump prompt #passing out #unconsciousness #whumpee #fainting #man #this was uh. definitely not inspired by personal experiences today LMAO #I went back to our library for the first time in months #now before first lockdown hit this place was like my second home. like I’d spend hours there every single day #but then I accidentally didn’t give my books back and now I’m still in debt there so I was too scared to go there in like the last year #but today I went again #and I was walking around and everything felt literally so weird and it was like the floor was made of jelly #so I sat down and wanted to catch back up on Norwegian a little and do some school work but the very moment I sat down I just. dozed off #yah #got up again and headache ensued for literally no reason #I did not end up actually passing out. that part is made up but #the rest just somehow happened today and I got no clue why #BUT ANYWAY #yes I wanted to put this experience here because I felt like some of y’all would enjoy it hehfnvndnvnldmf #Have fuuun with this #also I did not like. proof read this. and I gotta leave for school in 5 hours so like yet

Okay I'm not saying that this semester's students suck ass bc I'm not there to teach them, but isn't it just such a coincidence that the vast majority are failing so miserably and they don't have someone who will tutor them outside of class and go over notes and skills with them, while the previous semesters did have that and the majority passed? Super interesting stuff. Too bad we'll never know if things could've been different if they had just fucking paid me :)

#can you tell I'm peeved lmao #i went to one of the classes today just so i can keep it on my resume #and holy fuck #weeks into the semester and they should have the basics down #they do not #absolutely floundering #granted I'm sure I'm not actually the reason lmao #like yeah i helped a shit ton of students outside class too #but they probably could've passed without me #these new ones tho are awful #no drive no nothing just looking for others to blame for their own failures #i didn't even stay the whole time like i was planning #bc i found out that they hired four other fucking people for the program #who all have less experience than me #and have been with the program for a way shorter time than i have #who don't do half the extra shit i do #and don't get me wrong this isn't a slight at them they're all fully qualified #but why the fuck not hire me #like i genuinely am so pissed #have to email my supervisor but I'm too upset to make it sound civil #like fucking fine if you don't wanna pay me you never get to see me again #I'm not working ten hour days plus extra outside of class for nothing anymore that's insane #I'll keeping being a private tutor for the students but I'm not doing a single thing for the program without pay #i mean holy shit hiring at least four other people and not saying shit to me?? #like fine that's fine fuck you you're getting an email ultimatum good luck finding someone else willing to do all that for free #i cried about it for like an hour and now I'm just mad lmao having a super normal one rn #anyway #not snz

MOTHERFUCK i did not realize how much those antidepressants made me feel physically psychologically and dare i say spiritually like a peat mummy

literally 2 days off them and i've experienced more joy, lucidity, motivation and general good vibes than i did in the whole 2 months i was on them 😭😭

#now granted i did only sleep for 3 hours #but i felt more refreshed and energized today than i ever did when the pills forced me into 8 hours of pseudo-death a night #MY INTERNAL MONOLOGUE IS BACK TO NEVER SHUTTING TF UP #it was practically bones for so long oml #i'm usually annoyingly verbose but i was only able to say like 5 words at a time before i forgot how to end my sentence #yeah i'm prolly gonna lose the rose tinted glasses in a few days when the novelty wears off but for now #it's so nice to feel like myself and not like a lobotomized skinwalker trying to wear my own mannerisms convincingly #(obvsly they help some ppl or they wouldn't be an option to prescribe but GOD they fit my brain chemistry as well as a fork fits an outlet) #<<<<<<I CAN DO THAT AGAIN!!! I MISSED MY STUPID METAPHORS AND MY BAD PUNS AND MY SLIGHTLY OUT OF POCKET JOKES #i was fucking trying but it fundamentally doesn't work if u Try #yoda moment but whatever #yippeee #god did they fucking '''cure''' my ADHD instead of my depression #ok if this is what some ppl's experience of ADHD meds is like then the 'they made me feel like a robot' thing makes a LOT more sense #personally they just make me feel like. yk that one comic abt ADHD with the dog metaphor #yeah amphetamines my beloved let me hold the leash rather than becoming a human dogsled to the whims of my psyche #actually i think i was rather uncharitable to my current dream mask normal pills #i just happened to get mega bitch burnout for 3 months and then spend 2 in the aforementioned peat bog where souls go to die #when not impeded by outside circumstances i think they actually are completely fine #maybe not QUITE as agressively effective as my previous prescription but the ritalin was str8 up harsh #i tried it again for a week and it made my heart beat like it was being powered by a caffienated hamster #but when i used to take it i was already experiencing Real paranoid gerbil anxiety so it just kinda blended in #i only noticed the Severe Health Issue i got bundled as a side effect #and i keep having to remind myself not to go rose-tinted abt how bad it rlly was in retrospect #do i just need to leave a sticky note on my mirror like 'hey dumbass that was NOT a net positive period of ur life' #lexi stfu challenge
