after two years i finally draw the favorite

#my art #still learning honestly. idk how to explain it but some medias youre so fixated on and obsessed with u instantly want to draw everyone #for me dunmeshi has always been the opposite. series and characters i enjoy sm i cannot bring myself to pick up a pencil #for some reason. it got a lot worse once the anime started airing idk. simply forcing myself to get some of my energy out. in a way #dunmeshi #dungeon meshi #thistle #dunmeshi thistle #thistle dungeon meshi #delicious in dungeon #>_< series i was into since late 2021. yet u wouldnt know that unless u follow my side twitter account. sowwy ig #i do this with a lot of franchises honestly. cannot bring myself to draw even if i think abt the characters constantly. ie skip to loafer #u will nvr catch me calling this guy sissel sorry. save that name for Mr. Ghost Trick. another thing i. also. dnt talk abt. which i adore #i need to get better at talking abt and expressing myself for the things that i enjoy. ive been wanting to draw laios for a good #while too but im scared. for some reason. u-u should nvr let a white man do that to me honestly. #for now i'll thistle tho. maybe we will get kabru namari or mithrun next from me >_< i have to talk myself into it #i think the closest way i can explain why i cannot bring myself to draw for some series is that i dnt want to mess up somehow #like 'ilu so much [character] what if i cnt draw u the way u deserve even tho i love u sm what if its not enough.' <- leaves it to sm1 else #tbh [scratches head] i prefer the version with less coloring ^-^ but i realize the one thats more colored would get more eyes on it... hm

post frontiers. muscle memory. in the middle of a fight or even just out on a normal run sonic runs in a couple of quick tight circles and is confused when some rings don't pop up out of the ground, then face palms.

I actually kinda liked when mammon came up with that "fundraising" idea in the beginning of his curse

I would genuinely like to see more of that....

#it was shown as a bad thing but... #i feel if hes gonna embrace the greedy aspect of himself #(at least thats what i got from the ending?? cause im still not completely sure where they were going tbh) #then at least let him be more clever #i think it would be a nice change to his character #i think they wanna keep him where he is #so it wont happen #but its like...either let him learn to consider ppls feelings more #or let him lean more into his sin #im fine either way #but i need him to go in a direction for my sanity #obey me nightbringer #obey me mammon #OR #other option #find a way for him to be greedy that doesnt involve constantly “tricking” ppl #i think its possible #but it would pretty much change a lot of aspects of his character....like he'd probably not be the mammon we know anymore #hmmm idk how i feel about that

i just really wish i could magically impart unto all the people on that "the youngers haven't been taught computer shit we have fucked this up" post who grumble about the impossibility of using pdfs and how you have to pay to really do anything with them

the knowledge of foxit and pdf24.

fuck adobe. do your pdf shit for free. and goddamn use firefox while you're at it and you can edit most pdfs in your damn browser. it doesn't have to be like this.

#ps: a trick i learned doing transcript shit #if you get an important document as a pdf #and when you open it in your pdf reader/editor (NOT browser) if it says at the top (SECURED) after the doc title #THEN open it in your browser and do the print and save as pdf trick #boom you have an unsecured copy of your pdf #secured pdfs are much more heavily restricted in use and editing #and sometimes access to them expires after a secret period of time like 90 days or whatever #and if you have a secured pdf you need to access after the secret access expiration date #tough shit it doesn't open anymore or opens and is blank like it erased itself #you don't have to accept this set your pdf documents free

yes every single day is a reason to start anew and no, i will not be setting incredibly high expectations for 2024 because the unfortunate truth is that life is all about rolling with the punches, even if they really hit hard, but also. something fantastic about how people still choose new year's day to go "ALRIGHT. NEW YEAR. TIME TO SHAKE OFF THE COBWEBS"

#caroline talks #setting together my list of new year resolutions #and the first item on the list is 'LISTEN TO LESS DEPRESSING MUSIC. FOR THE LOVE OF GOD' #i think somewhere else on that list is gonna be 'watch all the barbie movies' #idk. life is good when watching all the barbie movies tbh #maybe memorize random portions of criminal law. for funsies. #i've been watching suits and god knows i have mixed feelings about mike ross but my brain is happy whenever he does the photographic memory #thingie. like damn harvey me too! #brush up on my korean. #learn how to do an actual pull-up or two. #wear more dangly earrings. #quote an entire episode of leverage. #when i was a kid. i used to be able to quote any line from star trek: 2009 and star trek into darkness #and i need to be able to do that again. it was a fun party trick #learn a new fun fact every day. etc

a lot of Posts floating around now about chatgpt in college, lxds. some things people are saying are true of course, but I work in at a large public university in the usa and I will set aside my cool laissez faire tech accelerationist cynicism to be totally honest for a moment:

the argument that ‘essay writing is a super specific skill that doesn’t matter in professional life so you should disregard those courses and just cheat to get the degree’ is very concerning to me, even as someone who doesn’t give a fuck about cheating per se, bc we don’t teach ‘essay writing’ in reading comprehension courses. or at least decent instructors don’t. I don’t. all that stuff about it being a cultural code is like, true above basic courses (so like, in grad school and even advanced undergrad courses yes it’s about *how* you write with all the attendant bullshit) but in that kind of remedial textual reasoning class in undergrad that’s required to get the basic ba degree, *nobody* writes in the prestige cultural style. the task in question is to be able to parse text and understand and construct logical arguments, and to be able to tell when an argument has something wrong with it, and to explain this clearly to other people. which you will need all the time forever in this hashtag society no matter what your job is, so you can tell when institutions are taking you for a ride. so like. …. :/

#of course the real trick is that reading comprehension should be taught in school not university #a ba degree should not be the barrier to a decent job. that’s the only solution imo #but students being dismissive of courses they are required to take because they’ve demonstrated that they cannot understand what they read #and using some predictive text engine to get out of. learning to read #is also like #incredibly hilariously bad for society #imho #i worry that having an easy out of learning this skill makes younger people even more vulnerable to being lied to and fucked over #like mine is not a meritocratic argument here #the cognitive disability access argument is more legit but then it’s like. see point 1 #probably in my ideal world not that many people would go to university bc you wouldn’t need to #people could do what they were really suited to and not beat themselves against the wall for Years trying to scrape by #with a minimum qualification for something they’re not cut out to do #and live well #and we can say ‘well we don’t live in that world’ but like. we could #ros.txt

it does make me a little sad that feasibly emrys and astarion probably can’t spar often… their fighting styles are too different. when sparring is a STAPLE of my cliches.

#I mean I guess they could but it would be soooo…. #well maybe compelling. in my head Astarion strikes always to kill / no dallying / less flamboyance than one would expect with him #I have NO idea where he learned to fight honestly in his 200 years but I can only imagine that with what his lifestyle was like #there wasn’t actually much room for egregious flamboyance or ‘showing off’ — strike to kill. end the fight fast #I’m sure he knows a few cool knife tricks but I just see him as a bit scrappy in real combat #leaving as little room for error as possible not because he’s concerned about show or technique but that pure survival drive #a bit desperate a bit unrelenting. ready to be as cruel and brutal as he needs to to Live and Win. #anyways all that to say that in contrast #Emrys fights very… honorably? for lack of a better word. #very much the Mighty Glacier trope. #she’s burly and immovable. she doesn’t bother with tricks. she just strikes hard and true and to the front #never to the back. #And I think that scrappy cheater vs bulldozer to the front…. #it COULD be fun in a fight. but it would be more fun in a REAL fight than a spar. #Where would they fight! I don’t know ❤️ #bg3 spoilers #ish?? #not really #oc. emrys

"each thing I learn about you just makes me want to know you more" <-text from my neighbor just now. i don't know what i'm winning at, but i'm definitely winning at something.

#he wants to go for a walk tomorrow so i can tell him about my favorite words from the french dictionary. #'do you do anything that's not dorky and interesting?' <-another direct quote #he said that before he knew about the dictionary. this was in response to learning i write crosswords #joke's on him though because now that he knows about the dictionary i think he's caught up on all the dorky & interesting stuff #i do feel like i'm really winning this acquaintanceship. not as a competition between him and me but rather #as a competition between this acquaintanceship and all other acquaintanceships i've had with other people #the trick is to not say anything about your hobbies for the first like. four interactions. then you start parceling them out one at a time. #it only works because we have so much other stuff to talk about. being neighbors. #like at no point have we had to do the awkward 'so what do you do for fun?' thing. so it's just when it comes up organically #anyway i'm enjoying this because i usually feel like i'm a VERY boring person #but i have just been nailing the pacing here. the suspense! keep em wanting more #myfirstname mylastname international man of mystery #also the other day we were talking and i said 'i told you about my mom's vibrator‚ right?' because i was sure i had told him that story #and he was like NO????? so basically he just thinks my life is about 5000% more interesting than it actually is #i'm fine with that though. if it means i get a walking buddy (who has a cat! and gives me fruit sometimes!!!) all the better #fuck it i will just make a tag for him #voisin de palier #now i need to find my first post about him from like 2018 when i was sooooo suspicious of him for absolutely no reason

like it’s VERY very important to not text and drive. and i understand how dangerous it is to do that and to be distracted at all in any way for any amount of time on the road. i know it’s important to learn about these stories and bear witness to them. but i just think. like idk. watching multiple of them every day for 10 days (with a two day break halfway through for the weekend) is realy… like idk. i think after seeing a couple you can get the point. i don’t want to sound dismissive or lackadaisacal and im scared im sounding like that but i just am so freaked out by all of this and witb every new horror they’re showing us it’s scaring me worse.

#purrs #delete later #car accidents tw #death tw #child death tw #ask to tag #drivers ed tag #like this sucks so bad. we go from watching a video about how to drive in the city… to a 10 minute vid of a man talking abt how he hit and #killed 3 kids and it shows a PICTURE OF THE SCENE OF THE ACCIDENT WITH BLOOD AND EVERYTHING… and then after the video we immediately start #talking about like. fucking street cleaners and how you have to watch out for them. HOW is the video about the kids being hit and killed #part of the flow of the learning. what purpose does it serve. and it’s like these are REAL PEOPLE who died. real kids who existed. and it #just feels kind of fucked up. maybe it’s more fucked up thst im not following the flow and accepting the weight of it but it’s hard to when #im scared as fuck and just want to not be shown gore videos anymore. and then once we pick up the content again like abt street cleaners and #shit i can’t focus on any content bc i have to wind down from seeing the dead bodies and hearing the letter the parents wrote. like how is t #this helping. maybe it’s landing / more necessary for the 16 year olds but im 24. i am a whole adult. i do not take being alive for granted #i am terrified of death and dying and painfully aware of how fragile human beings are and how easy it is to be in danger. this is not #helping me or sending me a message it’s just making me so scared and terrified to even leave the house and unable to stop thinking about #death or injury lol!!! and i can’t tell them to stop and i can’t quit bc i need my fucking license so i have to just put my head down and #do this but it sucks indescribably. and we also saw one of those trick videos again too that makes you feel stupid bc it tells you to count #the number of lkke. things you see and it turns out i missed a few AND they were like did you notice what was going on in the background snd #i didn’t bc i was too busy counting the fucking things they told us to. i want to SCREAM. this makes me feel so stupid and helpless lolllll #<- as i was typing that we were learning about the chance of survival if you are hit by a car at different speeds! bc that’s relevant 😍😍😍😍😍😍 #anyways. my therapist was telling me stuff abt how i need to remember this isn’t targeted for me and i need to regulate my nervous system an #and how to calm down when it triggers me but i forgot everything she said literally 5 hours ago and now im here freaking the fuck out so. 🥰

shoutout to the time i thought juggalos were just a random type of clown in the same way rodeo and pierrot is, and I off-handedly mentioned them in a conversation about clowns to one of my DQ managers when I worked there, and she fucking lost her mind laughing and I was like. damn. I didn't think my joke was THAT funny but okay. and then I never looked up what a juggalo actually was until just last year, like four years after I'd stopped working at that place 🧍

#when u dont have internet access very often u don't use ur small bits of time to look things up #esp when u dont have any unmonitored internet access fjdkdl #i was scared to look things up at school and i couldnt look up very much on the home computer #and my mobile had net nanny installed on it lmfao it was set for like... 12 yr olds #NOW GRANTED. I ACTUALLY DID MANAGE TO BREAK NET NANNY ON MY OWN COMPUTER. u have to move some files around inside the program files #and then u can basically break and un-break it as u please #so i could have it on to keep up the charade that i had it installed and it was monitoring and reporting my good boy usage #but then when i wanted to do stuff like... go on tumblr. or look up slang or whatever fhdkdl i could break the program #until i was done and then fix it so it'd go back to normal #this didnt help v much though bc i couldnt lug my laptop to school v often #and i wasnt allowed internet at home fhfkdl unless I was using my mother's laptop for looking up piano music LOL #eventually i also figured out how to break the program on my phone too but that one was more luck than anything else i think #anyways. all this surveillance made me good with tech stuff but im not Good w tech djdkdl i just know how to look things up #and i learned a bit how the backend of programs work or weird tricks for hidden folders and stuff on laptops #hey why tf am i rambling abt this in the tags fjkdl I've lost the plot #anyways good morning everyone please look up words that u may not know the meaning of before u use them #i do this too often now fhfjld. i have to look up words that i DO 100% know the meaning of just to make sure i dont have it wrong somehow #pippen needs 2nd breakfast
