Have a meeting in like 5 minutes to determine whether or not I can quit my second job and get a new, higher paying position. Wish me luck because IM SO FUCKING NERVOUS
idk if many of u are in an office job, but i’ve been working in my office job for six months now and i’m (finally) starting to get trained up in new roles and once i start training in one thing, it’s an immediate chance for the next and it feels rly cool like i’m unlocking one level after another
not me findin jeffree campbell chunky wooden heel tapestry boots (ive wanted for years) at the thrift in my size for an insane price (which i had a 5 dollar off coupon in my email) ffffugkycgxu!!
n halloween stuff was 75% off so i got bat wings (for 3 bucks) to match my cat/bat headband for further furry endeavors 🤣
prethrift 15km autumnal hike thru a giant graveyard n warden woods lovely weather!
was playin arnd w my eyeball accessories earlier but decided on bein str8 goth 🫠 my ears rnt healed from wearin *NOT* hypoallergenic earrings by accident last weekend so i cant rly wear anythin but my standard tiny silver hoops for a good while 😭
now to make dinner n watch deep space 9, maybe a bath n a sip of wine n then fallout new vegas b4 bed 😎
i can’t stand my current job. i want to quit so badly but i desperately need the money. it took me months to finally get a job offer from somewhere, but i just hate it. it was going well for the first 6 months but now i just have nothing to do, which sounds great but it’s actually so soul destroying to feel so useless and unproductive! I feel like a spare part in my team. any advice?
so we actually covered a question just like this in our most recent episode! long story short make a plan to get out of there but don't quit until you've got something lined up. we go into detail about just what to do to line something else up in the episode! good luck to you and come back round if you have a follow-up q and maybe we'll tackle it!
i know i havent been posting in a while but i just wanna share these feelings bc i feel like tumblr users, more than anyone, will get it lol
life has been _so_ difficult lmao what with politics, covid, yadda yadda. i feel like my soul leaves my body on a weekly basis. mind you, i work in a company that literally sells mental and emotional health """solutions""" for bigger companies, meanwhile their own employees are scrambling. nevermind that though.
i've been intrigued by the SMT/Persona design for a good while now. I played a bit of Persona 3 portable on 2020, and just started SMT 4. Today I finally got to research and look at one of the artbooks, a P3 artbook. And when I say I felt my mind aesthethically levelling up. Like, we know pokemon, right? We're used to creature design. But then I saw these:
And I remembered I saw this one once:
Nevermind the SMT/Persona character art always makes them look like they were sculpted in marble lmao
And I'm like. Yes. We made it. We're worthy of this beautiful art, we're making amazing art e v e r y d a y. Everyday bullshit will fade away (hopefully) but great art, great thousands of years of human history, before and beyond, and we've come this far. I had this same realization a couple months ago with Yakuza and how is feels like home even though I've never been to Japan. Because we're seeking those connections and making those connections every day through the arts.
And I get how we need people in STEM, people in B2B marketing, people coding. And that's great. But we need more people *everywhere* making what they feel is valuable, not what governments or whatever feels is valuable. Because seeing these silly digital demons is what gives me life, so much more than whatever pills doctors wanna give me for anxiety or whatever lol. But then again that's my reality. I feel like the world would be a little less anxious if we could all have slow saturdays to appreciate the arts and reflect on how far we've come as people, and that we're not alone, and even the silliest demon gathering games can be such a breath of fresh air in the clogged up and polluted world we have in 9-5 lives...
All seeds do not have the same destination. Some grow to become trees that live for centuries or even millennia, while others become plants that die off in months.
Corn 🌽 seeds yield produce within 3 months, whereas Mango trees take up to 3-5 years to bear fruit! Coco de Mer trees, however, can take up to 25-50 years before you see their first fruits.
Imagine the Coco de Mer palm envying the…
