#asking in advance just in case

Buy me a coffee

THIS HAS BEEN SITTING IN MY DRAFTS FOR LIKE TWO HOURS ASKING FOR THINGS IS LITERALLY MY WORST FEAR BUT FUCK IT WE BALL

my mum could really use £30-40 for groceries. We've spent a lot of money fixing stuff this month like replacement pipes and central heating (that really should be our landlord's responsibility..). She only has £150 left but we've still got bills to pay later this month so not much to spend on food and other necessities. Universal credit + her wage doesn't get paid until the end of the month (something is coming next week too but idr) 🥲

Usually we ask family and close friends for borrowing money but no one has been able to lend any aaa

No pressure to donate whatsoever — but if you have some extra money, any support would be greatly appreciated mwah <3

#minimum wage paired with her being a single parent and all that isn't really the best combination but eh #If it weren't for everything breaking at once I wouldn't have to ask #Anyway I need to shit on my landlord for a sec because I'm so pissed off #He doesn't fix anything (or at least takes a long time — he's been “fixing” our fence for thr past 4 years because its soo expensive and #otherwise he can't go on his quarterly holiday 🥺) #And he still has the audacity to raise rent every year when we've been renting for 10+ years now and never missed a payment #How do you go from £900 to £1500 a month for 2 bedrooms #We even pay a day in advance just in case something doesn't work or we can't pay later #But the one time she payed at 10 in the morning on the day he automatically started asking if its been transferred bc he can't see it #Even though its any time during the 24h and then the grace period #Its in the contract that YOU WROTE erm #Maybe stuff wouldn't be breaking all the time if you actually invested in high quality pieces #When we signed the first contract he literally bought the house 2 days prior and didn't renovate anything lmao #lasar being incoherent

#cascoon #it's like silcoon‚ but purple and pointy! desperately trying to remember how this one comes about. i'm gonna seem like a fake pokémon fan #i know silcoon and cascoon are both evolutions of wurmple. but i don't remember what the criteria are. is it a gender thing? hold on google #oh. it's just. some hidden personality value. so it's effectively random #y'know what. i think that's better than it being a gender thing. shoutout. but it could be considerably more interesting #maybe i'm just conditioned by the hitmonline to think that every evolution criteria has to be stupid and obscure and insane #or finizen At All #or all the stupid-ass trade evos. do not like trade evos. i do Not like trade evos! i have said this before but i will keep saying it #i just realized i called cascoon purple and pointy as though silcoon was not pointy. i'm not with it at all this morning #i just woke up‚ y'all. can you tell. can you tell i'm not sentient yet. i have to go to work in like an hour and a half and i am Not ready #anyway. i'm gonna get this guy up in the queue and dustox and then take my meds. see you guys in the dustox post #this must look so weird to y'all. since dustox is gonna be either multiple hours or a whole Day after cascoon #but i queue up two to three pokémon at once every morning to keep a good backlog in the queue in case one morning i miss it #which has happened before. it's saved my ass before. and i'm gonna need to use it at the beginning of july #sneak peek for you guys. i'll be heading out of town on june 30th to go to the other side of the country for work. so i won't be around #any posts you see from june 30th to july 4th are gonna be like super duper queued in advance. and i probably won't be able to answer asks #or anything like that. i dunno if i'll do a formal announcement bc no one will even notice but for you dear reader #who read this deep into my mile-long cascoon tags. you now know that i will be out of town from june 30th to july 4th #use this power wisely….

lol finally got around to watching the fnaf movie this past weekend after not being able to do it earlier due to various sucky reasons. I could ramble on about a lot of stuff surrounding things and whatnot probably but I won't so I'll just get to the point: I loved it so much, as a longtime cringe fnaf nerd it was a great time had yessir

unfortunately though I'll be honest, this may or may not bring back my fnaf phase once again, for better or worse

so uh yeah, beware the possible upcoming potential unrelated weird cringe au-based buns and bears-shipping once again maybe lol frick

#idk #if it does happen #sorry in advance #will still try to do more bombeep and stuff but uh ye as said you've been warned just in case lol #and maybe will try to answer some more asks or something soon idk fingers crossed #eh I need a nap lol bye

[k1rishiki]

oh yeah. the reason why i decided to reread tbhk (and thus it was able to hit me like a truck this time around) was actually not bc of mitsukou going canon but actually bc i maybe accidentally started a tbhk book club w my kids at work and wanted to check the contents of it justttt in case before i put the books in their hands

#tl;dr i have this one 4th grade boy who's a total weeb and knows that i'm the only one in this town who's more into japanese media than him #so he pesters me abt it every time he sees me. and the thing abt this kid is that he gets bored easily and if he does he turns into a #complete menace. now a couple weeks ago. he shows up at the program w one piece volume one and spends the entire time he's there peacefully #reading and not causing any problems on purpose. my coworker owen (the one who climbed onto the roof) and i were shocked and in awe of how #peaceful he was being and came to the conclusion that he NEEDS to have a manga volume in his hands at all times. few minutes later. #he finishes reading and isn't bored yet so he decides to go talk to me abt manga. specifically he starts pestering me abt what shonen i've #read despite the fact that i am a shoujo reader and told him that. but he knows i've read kuroshitsuji bc he previously asked me abt what #the worst anime i've ever watched is and i will never not take an excuse to drag the adaptation. and he figures that if i've read kuro i've #probably read more. and so i mention tbhk and he asks more abt it bc of the name involving toilets and him being a 4th grade boy so i give #brief overview and he wants to read it. and i come up with a scheme to make him peaceful AND to give him something to talk to me abt which #isn't 'i know you've read more shonen manga' 'let me gacha on your phone' or 'i saw an ad for rent a gf. thought it was lame. and now want #you to tell me how it sucks bc i assume you know everything abt every animanga ever' (<does unfortunately know too much abt rent a gf bc i' #a bit of a nosy bastard and watched the mother's basement video). so i offered to bring it in bc i own physicals of the whole series and of #as previously mentioned. gave it a quick reread in advance just in case. and got hit by it. hard. i love you tbhk almost as much as i love #when ppl get into things through me. honestly i think getting to live vicariously through him might be one of the main reasons it got me #this time around and not as much the first time (still loved it the first time though). flash forward a little while. one of the 3rd grade #girls is like. really into reading. and also macabre things. like ghosts. and she has two books from the school library. and has had the #same two books from the school library for over a week. she reads quickly and finished them both in under a day and is now bored out of her #mind rereading them. she asks to read the books i've been letting the other kid read. now there are two of them #romeo.txt

I’m not a human writer who writes a fantasy story about a boy saving the fae realm, I am a fae chronicler documenting a part of my people’s history

#just in case you were wondering #what do you think why I have this user name? #why do I have internet in the faerie realm you ask? well we advanced our technology too #writer speaks #writeblr #wip: the knights of the alder

[insomniac-dot-ink]

Okay I must get the answer to number 34 of the writer asks

34. Thoughts on the Oxford comma, Go:

All grammar is fake, this one is extremely funny when you use it wrong, but still, I stand by any and all disrespect for the English language.

"You're not following the rules." Good. I hope English breaks down, I hope cursive goes extinct, I hope the idea of what qualifies as "real" and "proper" language tears itself apart, I hope we die, I hope we both die.

#I apologize in advance #asks #but as a dyslexic person my disrespect for the mechanics of english runs deeply and passionately #the last part is a mountain goats lyrics just in case

[mylittleredgirl]

i go through these phases where i sit around thinking "i wish someone would send me an ask about [completely specific thing]" or "i wish someone would prompt me to write X" instead of just... writing that thing..... when it's my own blog and ao3 account and both tumblr and ao3 are Do Whatever Weird Shit You Want websites. i can't be alone in this, because it seems like kind of the same internal mechanism behind those "send me a number!" ask games and the "tagging so-and-so" posts. idk. just thinking out loud about why it's more comfortable sometimes to share thoughts and be creative if it's partly someone else's fault.

#when i'm in that mood i'll also carefully read through those ask me a number posts before reblogging them #like ok do i have an answer for all of these just in case #and then i've already thought of an answer so i could just Write Responses but ??? #it's like i'm seeking investors for my posts in advance idk idk

I might be retraining Roxy to ride this summer. pray for me.

#she thinks shes a bronc. now she CAN be a good trail horse and in the past her bucking has been saddle based #and ill be using a treeless so saddle fit shouldnt be an issue #but uh. shes by far the most advanced horse ive worked with and if i do ride her #easily the most advanced horse ive ridden as i am used to Calm Old Farts #shes probably. an advanced intermediate. #theyve tossed new riders on her and shes done ok? but she does throw attitude and isnt shy about bucking if you piss her off #and ive ridden a bucking horse Once because i rode romeo in a skirt and he hated it #and that was a very mild one #so im kinda excited. kinda think i might die. we will see #roxy is my buddy though. thats the advantage i have over other riders. we are besties. #now you may ask. why me? why give me this task? well #ive already had luck training her some basic skills / breaking her vices #and no one else wants to. everyones either got their own horse to deal with #dont want to train horses. or in the case of her owner. wants to sell her. #the barn owner (her owners mom) wants to keep her for trail riding but isnt into horse training #so in theory. thats my niche. #and then we would just pony romeo because hes old and out of shape and skinny #so. idk thats the idea. rn. early drafts. #ive gotten partial approval. waiting for the green light if you will.

goddd i’d rather burst into flames than go to work today...

#my company has this bullshit thing where corporate wants to make absolutely certain no one gets overtime for awhile after the holidays #so that means that if someone calls off sick no one can be called in to replace them #and. as is the case right now. if an employee quits on the spot. no one can fill in their shifts. #shifts which are scheduled two weeks in advance. #so for the next two weeks corporate's forcing us to pick up the slack without actually letting us call for any help #which. resulted in me being the only cashier yesterday while the store was crowded with ppl panic-buying bc it was going to snow #and which is the reason why i'm stuck working the maximum amount of hours they're allowed to ask me to work for the next two weeks AT LEAST #i'm just. ugh. i want to explode. i want to spontaneously combust.

if you tell the american prof you’re “auditing” the class, it sounds like that would be the US equivalent—bc auditing is basically just sitting in on the class. depending on the student and prof, it might include varying levels of coursework/participation as well

omg thank you that's really helpful! rn im waiting for her to get back to me but i'll keep that word in mind!

#to be completely honest #im not even sure i understand it myself lmao #basickly i have to take a number of classes from outside my own discipline #so im not just sitting in #i do need the academic credit #but at the same time #its ungraded #?? #which i guess makes sense when you're taking advanced classes in some random subject you know nothing about #but explaining that to professors from other departments #or in this case to a visiting professor from the us #is always so complicated #anyway this is gonna be the last time hopefully #thank you anon #<3 #ask #anon

unprompted.

& so we finally meet, lord de rais. just a pair of pawns on this dreadful chessboard where each square is blacker than black itself — @livingecho.

❛ von hellbert, in the flesh. i never thought i’d see the day, ❜

teeth flash, canines sparkling, as henri reaches out & grasps vissarion’s hand, as savage a gentleman’s greeting as there has ever been. they are rare creatures indeed, each towering head & shoulders above almost all others in the room, & the businessman’s hand fills henri’s own as no other does, allowing him a moment of unrestrained power as he squeezes & shakes. the bite of a rabid dog would be gentle in comparison, & henri’s grin turns wolfish, as if he finds himself anticipating something. a wince ; a flinch ; the sudden snap of bone ; he watches vissarion’s face carefully for any sign of weakness, until something within him is satisfied, & he withdraws, pulling his own hands away to clasp them behind his back.

❛ it thrills me to find you as eloquent in person as you are in your letters, sir. you would be surprised how dull people can be when you find yourselves face to face, ❜ his words are quiet, meant for vissarion’s ears only, swallowed up quickly by the smoke & sound of the club they find themselves in, & his eyes flash, inviting, beguiling.

❛ all this noise, & for what ? come with me. i’ll find us a private room, fix us a drink, & you can tell me what’s finally brought you all the way across the world to us. or should i say, to me ? we both know that no – one else here can give you what you want, surely, ❜

#livingecho #◆ ― ask meme. henri. #'is this about sex or business' yeah #apologies in advance to vis. not sure what for yet but just in case

#okAy so i'm not going to finish writing it i lack the skill n talent but i Must get this out there it's haunting me #i know rpf freaks some ppl out in which case why are u following me i literally made this blog bc i wrote so much goddamn rpf #but anyways. fair warning in advance. n i will delete this once i stop being insane blah blah blah #but god. just obsessed with piarlesteban ideas rn. with charles watching all the alpine stuff we're seeing trickling out now and like #the bittersweet feeling that comes with watching someone you love succeed at the cost of them potentially moving on without you #at least when pierre and esteban weren't talking it wasn't a constant reminder that Technically he's not pierre's oldest friend on the grid #that while he Technically thinks he knows pierre best. he wasnt one of those kids from normandy #is it jealousy? is it fear? is it something else? #after all if he called pierre 'pierrot' on main and started posting tiktoks with how important their friendship is #it would be smth f1 reposts and takes everywhere and makes a situation out of. but esteban can do it naturally. #him not wanting pierre and esteban to fall out again because truly he Does love them both albeit in very different ways because they *did* #all grow up together. but then if they do. he doesn't have to worry about if pierre starts to hesitate more when he's asked who he's #closest to. who his best friend is. doesn't have to worry #plus. plus plus. add in the context of it mirroring /pierre/ feeling like he got left behind while charles #blazed trails in his top team and pierre went back to his junior team who try as they might could never give him that wdc #sorry ive just been listening to smile like you mean it on repeat. and like #and someone is playing a game in the house i grew up in. and someone will drive her around on the same streets that i did #i CAN and i WILL make this about them #esp because im already deep in copium #YO the fact i can edit tags now. fucking SEXY!

i missed you too, dude! anyways, i got you and snare-stare-nare-square some slushies, dude. i don’t know what flavors you dudes liked, so i just mixed all the flavors together in two cups and hoped for the best, man. i took a sip and it kinda tastes like an f’d-up fruit punch, bro -gnarly

That sounds disgusting. I love it.

#im gonna go to the corner store and get a suicide #(fun little anon fact apparently thats called different things?? idk if its based on age or where you live or what) #(but i worried quite a few online friends by the term i learned for it and also some poor wording) #(apparently is not a normal sentence for everyone.) #(ive literally only ever heard a slushie with every flavor they sell mixed refered to as a suicide or a suicide slush) #not employee 427 in the tags #suicide mention #(<- just in case) #(if you needed that tag im pretty sure you wouldve asked for it already being the content we deal with on this blog frequently) #(but yknow just because it may be a little jarring in normal non arc conversion) #(also if yall ever need anything tagged in the future obv i will just lmk) #(guaranteed ill fuck up and some point and miss it tho so apologies in advanced)

[dwter]

are you really getting mad at george playing in a charity thing thats been prepared for months now before getting news of his visa

no im getting annoyed over having to wait longer and also dream having to wait longer be serious

#ask #this is just surface level annoyance and upset bc we were all expecting it this weekend #and imagining dreams patheticisms are like a sledgehammer to my brain #plus we have no clue if it was planned in advance (for him to be there) bc why would dream say the 22nd was the start of the 'danger zone' #in that case but i digress #relax #drolo demons

[fabulouslygaybean]

guess whose sideblog is apparently being targeted by a fucking pedo/zoophile 😐

#its one of my fucking fli.ght ris/ing sideblogs. blocked to keep it out of the tags bc the dude's keeping an eye on it rn #i answered an ask from him bc it was literally like 4 paragraphs of complete nonsense and i got dms from people warning me about him #i vaguely remember this dude from back in 2017 but i thought he went to jail?? but according to reports he's out and back on his bullshit #so now i gotta deal with this. im kind of scared bc he's been known to try and dox folks for rejecting his advances so i gotta be careful #sorry for ranging y'all. im just anxious now. i dont wanna give too many details just in case he finds this blog or smth but. ack. #i can give details in dms if necessary bc those are a lot easier to hide #*ranting. not ranging. only just now saw the typi #*typo
