Actually, now I think about it, Barnaby will put his face in Howdy's fluff whether or not he's unhappy.
SO true. maybe im just very tired but im getting the mental image of him like... tugging on Howdy's apron like "hey c'monnn im so unhappy rn im seriously so angry, just gimme the fluff itll fix me right up-" In The Middle Of The 'Busy' Store. and im finding it extremely funny

Me: loads up my queue with a month's worth of incorrect quotes at a time
Also me: wants to die as soon as I realize I'll have to edit more, save them to my drafts and add a bazillion tags, then very intricately and strategically schedule them so that I don't post two quotes with the same character(s) appearing in both on the same day

The dilemma between not wanting to reparent your parents because it's not your place to do so, it's incredibly costly, and they were supposed to be parents to you and not the other way around
And having to reparent your parents because it's impossible to have a relationship with them as they are because their own parents didn't do a good job and they just don't know how to communicate and the way they are hurts you
(and optionally: feeling sorry for them for what they went through with their own parents just like you feel sorry for yourself now and resenting them both for not being enough and for making you feel sorry that they couldn't be.)

yknow shit is working out pretty good for me now that i’m putting as little pressure on myself as possible
applied to a bunch of shit through a temp agency’s website yesterday, today got a call to set up an interview with them for tomorrow, which will be right after i get a haircut so i’m gonna look soo professional
the barrier to entry for jobs for me is getting someone to interview me. if i can get interviewed, i have the job. i think if i can get a temp position, it’ll be like a month before they decide to hire me on for real. since there’s an interview with the agency, i think i can get the recruiter to want to recommend me for shit. i just need something with a consistent schedule. i wanna know i can plan to do things with any spontaneity. would also be nice to have a normal weekend, but i’m not that picky. simply having two days off in a row would be crazy
i also kinda want it to be a little fuck you to aldi for stringing me along about promoting me. you’re gonna hype me up about a promotion and then as soon as i come out you go radio silent for two months? fuck off i’m gonna do data entry for the same money and less killing my body

Job update: senior leadership continues to play hard ball -- by not taking the court at all -- so I'm upping my game.
My salary is based on my job title... Which hasn't matched my responsibilities for years. I just discovered the job title Data Steward (with multiple open positions for full time remote work!) that lines up almost exactly with what I actually do for this company. There's a 30 grand difference between my salary and the low end of a Data Steward's salary range.
So I'm going to make a full report comparing job titles and duties between my current job title and this new one, prove where my current responsibilities fall, and then request a salary increase and job title change IN ADDITION to keeping my one office day a week schedule that they refuse to consider.
What are you going to do then senior leadership? Gonna keep ignoring me and let me walk away? Pft!

hi all <3 i have a studyblr @rigelmejo if you happen to also be studying chinese or japanese, feel free to rant to me ur study methods or things ur into and liking over there (or responding to my rambles lol)
the studyblr was initially made to be just a study journal to keep myself accountable, but i also link resources i find over there, and if i have discussions on study methods/articles i find then i post them over there
also, if you are studying chinese in particular to read, i heavily recommend the heavenlypath.notion.site they have a lot of good tools linked, a great FAQ for how to start reading and progress, and a lot of great novel recommendations with details learners would find useful (like unique character count, total word count, difficulty etc)

NISHT REBLOGN
well roommate is moving out in. 3 weeks. lol. & i guess paying next month's rent & maybe july but after that i am, uh. suddenly responsible very unexpectedly for $400 more dollars a month when i do not have a regular income & had budgeted very carefully to live off my savings. so that's cool. haha. i've mentioned my mom helping me pay for things before & overheard them on the phone (not on purpose, our apartment has no soundproofing to speak of) saying something about them not being sure what my situation was but "[they] think [my] mom has money" & it's like dude. we are not talking "generational wealth that can pay my rent" we are talking "can help me pay for OTC meds & occasionally wire me funds for food delivery when i can't walk" lmfao. i can't afford to cover our whole-ass rent for more than a few months max & now i'm in an annoyingly pressed position. not as pressed as 2020 covid eviction & not as pressed as 2016-17 couchsurfing homelessness but it's still unpleasant given the uncertainty & instability of everything else right now. come on, man :(
