THERES SO MANY NUMBER & LETTER CODES THAT PROBABLY MEAN SOMETHING, MY ADHD ASS CANNOT! 😫

This shit has to be as hard to remember as the retail codes at grocery stores. 🤯

#thankfully near the end of when I quit my retail job they installed a search engine function #it wasn’t fully functional but it helped immensely #most the time I would just type in mystery item code essentially & put in the price #customers were boomers so they were mostly honest & I never got in trouble for it #only one got recommended I actually look stuff up & then I retorted oh & hold up the long line??? & that argument was DONE!#lmao #I wonder if anyone’s deciphered these codes yet?? don’t spoil what they mean for me though this is like a live blog kinda thing #mine #op #tmagp 2 #tmagp #tmagp spoilers #the magnus archives #the magnus protocol #tma spoilers #tmagp liveblog #tma

I'm honestly very disappointed in rusty quill for that better help sponsorship on the last magnus protocol episode. I understand if the show can't be made on just the kickstarter and patreon money but better help is a shit company that has been known to sell their user's sensitive health information long before the ftc literally fined them for it. No amount of money should be worth advertising such a company to your fans. Vetting sponsors is common practice and literally one google search on rq's part should have prevented this. Shameful

#the magnus protocol #rusty quill #tmagp #the magnus archives #tma #remember when established titles was proven to be a scam and everyone stopped shilling for them #and that was just lying about a novelty gag gift #this is sharing their paying customers mental health information with goddamb facebook. and lying about it #not even fine print shenanigans they straight up lied #all of this information is so easy to find snd yet people keep taking their sponsorship money and it fucking sucks tbh

working at those roblox customer service job games is insane. because last night there was some guy who kept being a smartass and the way he was ordering made me want to pull my hair out and run into the woods. "You want a bacon burger without pork.. so.. a normal burger?" "no. bacon burger with no pork" "but bacon is pork." "N o."

(i just gave him a normal bacon burger, i really have no clue. you ask for a bacon burger, you're getting the freakinf bacon burger)

"Do you want your ice cream in a cup or a cone?" "yes."

this guy was at my register for a total of maybe 20 or 30 minutes i have no CLUE

he was right on the edge of what counted as trolling. like, teetering off a cliffside. I was very close to calling a moderator at some point.

These people put you through hell and back. they make you growl like a wild animal at the screen. they drain you of every ounce of whimsy and life you have. and then, out of nowhere, they tip you 500 freaking robux for what im assuming is the big finale. an unexpected plot twist. (and compensation,) and then they leave.

god

#I guess it was worth it #but that ruined the next 2 hours of my life afterwards #this game is so realistic! i love customer service!!#oh yeah and then there are the trollers who speak their order in riddles and they technically are ordering correctly #so you cant warn them or anything #you just have to do cartwheels figuring out wtf theyre trying to tell you #txt #txt post #rant #most of the time working at these jobs is fine though. just know that im going to be a menace when faced with a troller. i do not care.#i will reach over the register counter and kill you #..... but in a way that ill be following the report protocol as i should because i dont want to be demoted #roblox

i wanna quit my job so bad holy shit

#serving rich people fucking tea parties all day while i die inside is what’s gonna make me finally kill.#being treated like i’m a moron for ringing customers up for exactly what they ask for instead of automatically knowing line cook protocol -#having never been a fucking line cook is gonna also make me kill.#what’s so fucking difficult about someone ordering their eggs slightly over medium. i got treated like a fucking idiot for ringing that up #for someone today when they specifically asked me to make sure their egg was cooked SPECIFICALLY like that. like just fucking cook it over #medium and then make sure the yolk is slightly more firm but not to the point of being over hard jesus fucking christ????#i hate working in food service and being treated like i’m stupid when all we’re doing is making fucking food. it’s not that important.

whoops, made another Shepard. Her name is Hyacinth, she’s goth and mean. Earthborn, Ruthless, Vanguard.

I plan on doing a full renegade playthrough with her, because sometimes its cathartic to watch a character Get Even Worse™ you know? (Keeping in mind that the last time I tried to do a Pure Renegade run I accidentally ended up with Jordyn “I love my quarian gf so much” Shepard instead, who started as a traumatized hardass and gradually turned out to be an okay guy with the help of his found family) So yeah I will probably be crying the whole time bc I hate being mean in video games, but I’m not gonna wuss out this time, for real, i mean it!

Also for some reason, the initial concept I had in mind for this character was “Space Witch”?? Hence the old-timey-sounding floral name and the biotics. and the swoopy hair i guess lmao

#mass effect #mass effect legendary edition #commander shepard #custom shepard #custom femshep #hyacinth shepard #no her haircut isn't Alliance standard or practical #but also she showed up to a Special Military Briefing in a hoodie so I think she doesn't give a damn about ''protocol''#becoming a spectre will 100% make her go mad with power. just a tiny bit...#anyway purposely holding myself back from continuing this character until I finish up my MEA replay.#also I'm just realizing... i really don't have a lot of OCs with blue eyes? makes her stand out in the crowd for sure (well my crowd anyway)#ruby's ocs

My colleague, the only one who actually liked this job, has lost his joy for it

#imagine me who never liked customer support #he was great at it and super human when taking care of things #now he's a protocol following machine with no empathy #that's what capitalism does to us lol #and rude customers #anyway if you're rude to me i will not help you go cry about it

The Supreme Court has issued a ruling that will allow the Biden administration to end a Trump-era immigration program forcing asylum seekers attempting to enter the US at the southern border to return to Mexico while their claims are considered.

The ruling in favor of Biden was a change in tone after the Supreme Court’s conservatives in recent days overturned the constitutional right to abortion and curbed the Environmental Protection Agency’s ability to regulate greenhouse gases, among other decisions that enraged Democrats.

Chief Justice John Roberts handed down the ruling, which was joined by his fellow conservative Justice Brett Kavanaugh and the three liberals on the court. The remaining four conservative justices dissented.

Soon after taking office, Biden had sought to completely end the program known informally as “Remain in Mexico” and formally as the Migrant Protection Protocols.

But lawsuits by Texas and Missouri forced the administration to reinstate the program, which the Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas, said imposes “unjustifiable human costs” and does “not address the root causes of irregular migration”.

Humanitarian groups, immigrant rights advocates and many Democrats have assailed the program as inhumane, while Republicans and conservatives argue that it has stemmed the flow of illegal immigration in a useful way and should continue.

“The supreme court’s decision to allow the administration to end the ‘Remain in Mexico’ policy is the first step toward remedying years of humanitarian injustice,” said Ben Ray Luján, New Mexico’s Democratic Senator, in a statement following the verdict.

Luján added: “This dangerous, xenophobic policy established by the Trump administration has forced tens of thousands of vulnerable children, families, and other asylum seekers into unsafe conditions before their asylum requests can even be heard.”

However, Texas’s Attorney General Ken Paxton, called the decision “an unfortunate one” that was “wrongly decided”.

“Today’s decision makes the border crisis worse. But it’s not the end. I’ll keep pressing forward and focus on securing the border and keeping our communities safe in the dozen other immigration suits I’m litigating in court,” Paxton said.

Under the program, asylum seekers are forced to wait in Mexico while they await the hearings to adjudicate their claims for refuge in the US.

The program was initiated by Donald Trump in January 2019 as part of his administration’s aggressive efforts to curtail both legal and illegal immigration.

Karen Tumlin, founder and director of the immigrant advocacy group Justice Action Center called the ruling a blow against campaigns by Republican-led states to stop Biden from undoing his predecessor’s policies.

“Our hearts are full as we welcome this important decision for immigrants fleeing in search of safety. But we are keenly aware that the same court that issued this decision today, made us all less safe with its decisions this term, ending the precious safeguard of reproductive freedom, prohibiting life-saving gun control laws, attacking Indigenous sovereignty, and restricting our ability to act on climate change,” Tumlin said in a statement.

Asylum advocates and immigration groups, as well as many Democrats, say the program ignores US law and abandons the country’s commitment to international asylum laws.

Illegal border crossings fell sharply under the policy, after Mexico, under threat by Trump of higher tariffs, agreed to accept the migrants. Since then, tens of thousands of people have been returned to Mexico to await immigration hearings in squalid encampments at the border. Often fleeing violence and tragedy in their home countries, the asylum seekers are exposed anew to violence in Mexico while they wait.

During oral arguments in April, the administration argued that the program was discretionary and “not in the interests of the United States”, according to court filings.

The suing states argued that releasing the migrants to Mexico was the only way to comply with a statute requiring these migrants be detained while they await consideration of their immigration proceedings, given that Congress has never allocated enough resources to detain them all in the US.

Last year, a judge in Texas ruled that immigration laws require the US to return asylum seekers to Mexico whenever the government is unable to detain them. The Biden administration asked the Supreme Court to intervene to block the ruling, but it declined to do so, requiring the US to restart the program.

Meanwhile, the administration is locked in another lengthy legal battle with conservative states over another Trump-era policy enacted at the start of the pandemic that allows authorities to expel migrants without giving them a chance to make asylum claims.

Under pressure from immigration advocacy groups, the Biden administration moved to lift the public emergency health order known as Title 42. Ostensibly enacted to control the spread of COVID-19, the order is now the subject of a fierce debate over whether it is an effective and fair tool for controlling migration. The order remains in place after courts blocked the administration’s efforts to revoke it.

Heart updates! Finally got the heart monitor off a week or so ago, which was great, because first set of adhesives were melting my fucking skin. The company were sweethearts and sent me new adhesives, which.. were fine for the first week, and then started doing the same, because adhesives are just fucking hell. Thankfully, it’s all healed over well, haha, and it was kind of worth it.

I am perpetually in a state of mild suspicion towards my own experiences, because - am I genuinely uncomfortable, or am I just easily bothered? Am I in pain, or am I just wallowing? But now I have ~*official results*~, and validation that my heart does not like filling up properly, that does hurt like hell, and the wiring is kind of fucked for reasons that I’m going to have to do more tests for. And the wiring is fucked in a way that does not, remarkably~!, resolve itself by “growing out of it” (at 30, somehow). Validation of the issue.. and validation that a lot of doctors are fucking assholesss.

Also, confirmation that I probably do nooot have any of the “you will drop dead” issues from this gene, so woo (knock on wood). It’s progressive, so I have to keep coming in for fucking ever, I guess, but like a lot of things, it’s just a case of monitoring, and slapping on some duct tape as soon as problems present. So that’s nice.

But: more tests! Once my insurance approves them, anyway, because they’re generally fairly great, but they’ve got a bee up their ass over wanting the tests done in a specific order. This wouldn’t necessarily be a problem, if it weren’t for the fact my cardio wants it all done at a specific hospital, and the waitlist for that.. already has the most accessible test scheduled for the end of April. And it wouldn’t be a problem if they didn’t decide they only wanted tests in a specific order twenty four hours before I went in for a test.

I was kind of banking on the idea I’d have all of these tests done by July, and either have a pacemaker or medication to knock out this issue, whichever fucking one, but. I refuse to be stressed over this, haha. It’ll get resolved, they’ll fix this up, and then I guess.. they’ll test me for POTS, because my view of that remains “this is irrelevant to the greater issue and idgaf”, but they really want to. So at this point, I will roll with what-the-fuck-ever they want if they can fix the overall issue, tbhhh.

In related news: my mother remains batshit, which I generally expect, but I am still a little mystified by. Cutting this section, because She Is A Lot.

She’s spent my entire life arguing that I do not have any cardiac problems! Several family members and myself remember that I went to a cardiologist as a kid, but it’s about 25/75 on if she’ll actually admit that, and her stories do not stay consistent. When I got the genetic test saying, hey, heart issue!, she was dismissive of it, and the past year or so has been her consistently trying to pick fights with people who mentioned it, arguing that everyone has heart issues and I should get over mine because it was getting very inconvenient, and occasionally inpromptu informing me that, actually, this is all caused by a lack of exercise, or some other spontaneous decision she pulled out of her ass. Or from not eating enough, because I have chronic pancreatitis.. but perhaps I don’t actually have that, and I’m just food-averse?

Ignore the hundreds of dollars of cooking supplies and huge chunks of time just fucking around and experimenting with recipes, I suppose.

It’s been whatever! I am long, long past the point where her opinions hold weight for me, beyond occasional fits of outrage. But once my sister got confirmed as having the same heart issue on a different scale, and once tests started coming in for me, she has switched tracks.. to saying that she has a heart issue, too, and it’s like mine, but with higher spikes! And she just never noticed it, because it just happens, and it’s really quite easy to ignore, but she guesses she’ll go to a cardiologist, just to see --

We inherited the problem gene from her, and her entire family does have severe heart issues - and she herself has aneurysm issues - but I’m unimpressed. Between that and her flipflopping from “you don’t have allergies!” to “well, if you have allergies, then I probably have allergies, so I should ALSO start telling people I should avoid your allergens (of the food that I do not like, do not eat, and do not have any desire to eat)” this year, I’m just lifting my hands from that entire topic. When she brings it up, I’ve been just telling her to go talk to her doctor, get tests, and then disengaging from the topic, because.. man, haha. There’s a lot going on there, and I do not have the psychiatric degree nor the inclination to really dig into this beyond the side-long “huh, these problems really are only relevant when they can impact her, huh?”.

My dad is a little better, at least! He had a panic attack when I told him about all of this, haha, which was.. something, but now he’s taken up just consistently texting me reminders on everything. Have I eaten recently? Have I gotten electrolytes? I should go drink some Gatoraid. Have I taken my meds? GO TAKE MY MEDS. Remember if I’m going out to drink some electrolytes!

He’s kind of a pain in a different sort of way about all of this health shit, but I do appreciate the fact I don’t have to really second-guess him much - when he’s being an asshole, it’s pretty on the nose. And he’s being genuinely helpful, because I do forget shit a lot on bad days, so. #okay!

#the mysterious fainting waif disease #the last-minute insurance shit was so fucking tedious yesterday #at one point I was on the phone with two different people from the same hospital trying to get it sorted #then insurance called and I had to get three calls from three different fucking departments all saying 'WE'RE SO SORRY DON'T COME IN.'#but you know what #my customer service voice is GREAT and everyone was very sweet #and I am always mildly amused by my ability to switch mental tracks #start of the call: internal shrieking because I'm stressed the fuck out at this point #thirty seconds into the call: oh no! this OTHER person is stressed out!#initiate soothing protocols! remind them that all issues are transient and don't worry we will figure this out as a TEAM #and there is NO NEED to be STRESSED 💖 because we are all ~DOING OUR BEST~#five minutes after the call: external shrieking because I'm stressed the fuck out #thankfully my soothing protocols also work on me. mostly. BUT WHAT A DAY.

Coffin table (remake)
