not to be a colossal fucking cowabummer about everything but it really does suck that like. my really chill and like. supposedly more realistic type of career goal feels about as unattainable as like a kid saying he wants to be a singer or something

#kazoo noises #like yeah this was supposed to be a job i COULD get. i thought bc like. i was going into the field bc i loved the work and not bc i couldnt #make it into academia (fuck u alt-ac term users yall are snobs) id like maybe be able to cobble it together bc like. im good at doing work. #i can usually make something happen and i got a good attitude. but jesus ive got one year left and every job app comes back negative if the #even bother to respond #like idk man. i knew iwasnt gonna be making money or shit and i knew it was gonna be rough but like. everyone else i meet already has a gig #or at least like gig adjacent. volunteer or field experience or internship and like. i cant get anything to stick. its not like ive done #nothing either? ive worked extensively with small scale exhibition design. i have worked extensively with special collections libraries. #i have literal years worth of research experience from college. i have an entirely customer service based resume thats not academic so i #can handle a patron (and crucially different from my peers: I WANT TO) #i can organize. i can write and design labels. i can communicate. i can handle special collections objects. i can make ANY microfilm reader #work for me even when it doesnt want to #and im not saying my classmates arent qualified. but like. surely this has to amount to something. i have been so stupidly lucky #to have even half the experiences i do. i have variety in my degree that even some of my classmates would kill for i think. i did. so much. #i have had so many advantages and i like to think i use them well and that i am grateful for them. but why cant i make that shit connect??? #my resume is good. im reliable. i want to work more than anything. so why cant i get a call back??? #legitimately how much longer do i get to keep telling myself i a not the common denominator here #sorry for diary posting but im prepping to walk to the house tour and planning what job apps i can fill out when i get back and literally. #just like. why do i bother. i should have just held my nose and done the online only program in state. i'd probably spend less time rotting #god being 23 fucking sucks. it is going to be better. im literally just barely an adult. this cant be it and it wont be it. but jesus. i go #over having to beg for a rejection letter about ten months ago when i still felt like i had a shot at these experiences

trying to fully commit to csp by deleting my drawing app

so... robot girls, huh? anybody?

#my art #uhh idk should i tag as robot #or girls or robot girls #so maybe ill use this tag space as something to jot my thoughts down bc i was like oh yeah csp is good to improve art #and i just kept not using it for like 2 years because yeah #so family gb was full and i was clearing my space #and thought it would be good to finally move on from the drawing app on my phone #i was like its time to move on... no more lollygagging about #so i finally delete it and 2 days later my heart began to yearn #massive regret for all those sketches concepts and polished arts i made / never posted or SAVED to a drive or something #massive L but its the first step for change.... i believe in it....!!!! #edit hey guess who found out that the quality got squashed a bit…. oh whell!

warrior cats hyperfixation era me was so close to figuring out she’s trans and aroace. so close.

warrior cats hyperfixation era me: ‘‘yeah i usually rp as male cats :) idk i just prefer writing them and it’s easier for me to think as them than as female cats? idk i just prefer them. but irl i’m a girl xD’’

GIRL YOU ARE TRANS.

THAT’S WHY YOU PREFER PLAYING AS TOMS. BC IT REPRESENTS YOUR GENDER MORE ACCURATELY

warrior cats hyperfixation era me: ‘‘my fav clan rank? definitely healer! they don’t have to fight, they just collect herbs and treat the wounded cats. sometimes they also hunt. also they aren’t allowed a mate or kits which is a stupid rule but most of them don’t want that anyway. and yes i love rping healers who just have close friends no mate no kits no forbidden romance no nothing! but i’m omniromantic :)’’

GIRL NO. YOU ARE LITERALLY AROACE

warrior cats hyperfixation era me was so so fucking close. she was so fucking close and she still didn’t realise shit

#when i didn’t rp as healer (which i did whenever i could) i either rped as kit/app too young for romance or usually one of my two fav ocs #firscent or pearbird. firscent is a deputy n he devotes his life to his job & his siblings he’s not interested in romance or kits bc he’s+ #got his job n clanmates. that’s all he wants and needs in life. he doesn’t even wanna be leader he’s a deputy at heart #pearbird is a middle-aged widowed mother with a single kit who was an accident. she started dating the dad when she found out that she was+ #pregnant bc she wanted the kit to have 2 loving parents which she didn’t. and he liked her. but she didn’t like him romantically. but then+ #like 2 moons after the birth he fucking dies so she’s stuck with a kit she doesn’t want who looks like his father who she never wanted. + #that’s the moment in her life where i usually started rping as her. she’s bitter and grumpy and kinda mean and she can’t look her son in+ #the eyes bc he looks like his father but she genuinly cares for him and does a decent job at motherhood bc she tries with all she can. bc+ #her own parents never did n she wants her son to have a good life. they grow apart when he’s older n the only cat she stays close to is+ #her app bc she has a soft spot for her n they remain close friends until she dies in some battle when she’s pretty old #so she never has romance either. my god younger me was SO stupid #also i love pearbird so much omg i should do more with her. art fics smth smth idk #also she’s a transmasc bigender aroace now and goes by she/it/he :3 #☆—`elys rambles #oh btw i call younger me she bc. she was a she. by choice. she also was a she/they for a while. i used to be a girl yk #i still am a tiny bit tho mostly not. but yeah i used to be a she/her girl n then a she/they agender demigirl #she was stupid. in a loving way #trying past self love & acceptance asdghjhfhjg

thinking about earlier this year and even last year when i was so deeply hyperfixated on lloyd & he was all i could think about and yet i barely shared any of my thoughts on here. i kind of want to kick myself about it now actually because i know i had so many things to say and so much i wanted to do but i never made it happen. why was i a coward.

#raaghhh i’m just so disappointed in myself :( #it would’ve been so cool to have those posts to look back on now!!! #technically i still can because it’s all rotting in my notes app. but that’s not as fun. #and it’s not even really about that it’s more like. knowing there’s so much that i’ve missed out on #i never shared any of my writing here (despite saying that i would like. 5 million times!) because i was so so scared of it being perceived #so i never got to experience what it’s like to get feedback!! #and then there’s the lloyd roleplay blog that i’ve wanted to make since very early 2021…. #i got so close to doing it last year and i put literal hours of effort into the blog but then i just. decided not to use it. #and i think that makes me the most sick because like. how many interactions do you think i missed out on?? #maybe it wouldn’t have gone anywhere. maybe it would’ve sucked and died immediately but i’d never know unless i tried!!! #and now i’ll never know. #‘just do it now’ well you see. I Am Still Scared :) #idk i just find it so difficult to put myself out there #even in a fandom that has a grand total of five people 💀 #but i am thinking about it!!! and that should count for something #anyway wow i can ramble! #if you read all this…. hi :) #i’ll probably delete this later but it was good to get it off my chest!

Bros i am about to have no actual friends within 15 miles from me for the first time in ages wtf 😵‍💫 I'm gonna have like one coworker I like who is my age and one guy who Im terrified of from school and also it doesnt rly matter bcus i should be spending these last few months with my parents and also going crazy on the grindset. This is such a temporary situation bcus I will also hopefully be moving in August but like bro what!! Usually I can kick bad habits concerning isolation and bed rotting over the summer bcus Im so busy but damn for the next two months I really need to make sure I'm actually doing things and making an effort instead of just rotting away on a device. The good thing is that in the strangest way its almost like an exciting way to relive the sins of my k-12 years except prove that I can be normal. The BAD thing is that this hinges on me being normal

#umm i forgot what my posts tag is #gene talks #i guess thats sufficient idk #but man Liam moves on Sunday and im WORKING #the good thing is i have Monday off and Tuesday is a late start so idk I can go over maybe and hang out #its exciting though its cool to be responsible for your relationships #i am actually really hoping to cultivate many friendships and to continue strengthening my bonds with people #making this post inspired me to text two buddies very nice ok #anywayyy i think im gonna start using this more as a blogging platform and start to ween myself off of tiktok #they should make an app of Jellodiggers tiktoks and allow ppl to scroll

I was just tragically reminded that the Vlive is shutting down after the end of this year, and now I’m lowkey stressing because does that mean that the beyond live content that I purchased is just gonna be gone?? Even though I paid for it?

#like can they do that? #or is it actually going to be transferred over to weverse? #(doubtful) #now I feel like I need to find a way to download it but I don’t have room on my phone and you can only download it through the app #or can I screen record it on my laptop? #or should I try to figure it if I can burn it onto a dvd if I stream it on my rv #like I know my dad did that once with DVRs we had on an old tv before we switched providers so we wouldn’t lose some of the stuff we had #but for right now I’m just downloading one and then maybe I’ll be able to like offload it somehow #idk but it doesn’t seem fucking fair that they forced us to pay for this content and now they’re just completely going to erase it without #refunding people who spent their money on it #nevermind that I only watched these live and then one more time over a year ago #but it’s the principle of the thing yknow

If you act like any one music app is better than another I will never respect you.

#idk I’m tired of saying to people that I use SoundCloud primarily and then have to suffer through “but spotify- but apple mu- but but but” #i. do. not. care. #i fucking hate Spotify bc unless you pay for it you can’t choose which song you’re actually gonna listen to first #and not only that but it fucking adds music to your playlists that you Don’t Choose Yourself. do not like that #and like I’d have used it anyways and paid for premium if I hadn’t used Apple Music first out of necessity #it was on the phone already. why should I have downloaded a separate app or so I thought #and when I got my first job I just paid for Apple Music subscription #and when I got too broke for that I used spotify for free but learned that I fucking hated it #so I went back to Apple Music for the longest time #till I started watching Corpse Husband streams and found out he made music too #and he mentioned in a stream that SoundCloud was better bc it doesn’t change the volume or smth #and I’m nothing if not influenced by parasocial relationships so I immediately sought him out on SoundCloud and realized he released more #on SoundCloud than anywhere else. so I started using it much more #and then I was too broke for Apple Music and just stopped using it at all in favor of SoundCloud #eventually got a SoundCloud subscription #and like even if I don’t have the money for it sometimes it’s still great?? bc not everything is behind the paywall and you can find new #artists really easily and it doesn’t add unnecessary shit to your playlists like SoundCloud #idk I just really like it more than anything else but I acknowledge the pros to the others #Spotify can do group playlists and does spotify wrapped and you can have friends on there #Apple Music is automatically on your iPhone or apple product and accessible (this is the only plus. the only thing I miss about it are the #playlists that I won’t get back) #okay the sentiment is getting away from me. basically I hate when people make me feel lesser for using SoundCloud. #a lot of people act like spotify is Number 1 followed by Apple Music and that everything else is absolute dogshit #like. can we all just fucking calm down #one thing I don’t like about SoundCloud: some artists don’t use it and their music is great and I wish they would post their shit on it too #a guy recommended me a good Japanese psych rock song from the 70s/80s but unfortunately the artist isn’t on SoundCloud and no user has #posted it themself. #people do that and then make sure the artist name is also in the title #i might just have to do it myself #i want it on my playlists

I quite like this featured tags thing but:

1. It doesn't seem to actually be linking through to the featured *tags*, it acts like a featured search 👎👎👎

2. It NEEDS to work with emojis 🙃🙃🙃

#Tumblr #Technology #I really don't want to learn more things about the workings of tumblo against my will lol #But surely a tag is like a category... U can link straight through to it as like a filter no? #Rather than the (known terrible) search! #If someone has a tag abt idk 'bread' but the word bread comes up a lot when they're talking abt money #On posts which arent in the 'bread' 🍞🥖🥐 tag... 💡♻️♻️♻️♻️ Well I'm sure u get my point! #And it not working with emojis is just 🙄🙄🙄🙄 #Words suck!!! Emojis rule!!!!! 😤😤😤😤 #I am v anti compooters lol so am biased #But I do think they should be thinking a leeeeeetle more about the app/mobile usage??? #Also I just semantically think it's weird to call something featured tags when that's demonstrably not what it is 🤷🏼‍♀️🤷🏼‍♀️🤷🏼‍♀️ #🔎🔎🔎🔎 #No wonder nobody understands how to use this thing lol #Blast from the drafts

I've been in such an off and on garbage mood lately and I've been especially annoyed because it makes me want some retail therapy but that is not that practical or helpful

This is so ??? Ridiculous? Like I really do get that he’s upset about his sister, but life moves on….

#choices mah #choices murder at homecoming #choices #choices stories you play #playchoices #‘popular’ people in high school are a dime a dozen #and they’re at a festival so how exactly does he expect them to be acting #should they all stand 10 feet apart and cry so that no one is in the middle and they’re not having fun? #I mean… 🙄 #and this is why I can’t do PB’s high school books #maybe I’ve outgrown them a bit but I used to love YA novels #if I had more time to read I’d probably still pick one up every now and then #but I feel like PB specifically makes their high school characters overly annoying and dumb I’m sorry #bc this is just silly #but maybe I’m trippin #idk why this annoyed me so much #choices app #pixelberry studios #pixelberry

hmm

#weird thing ive noticed #so when i was Really Severely Depressed in high school #i used an app called daylio to journal my emotions n shit #and my most common entry was 'neutral' #which i always defined as ':/' #but then later when i was more recovered i realised that that 'neutral' was actually Bad #idk how else to describe it other than- feeling nothing or less than nothing or simply an absence of happiness #i just thought 'well i dont feel Good™ so clearly this is neutral' #when really my 'neutral' should really be Okay instead of Meh :/ #took me a long time to say 'i feel okay' #like genuinely that was a massive milestone was saying 'i feel *okay*' #not 'i feel happy' or 'i feel good' but just. okay #turns out 'okay' is the neutral for most people. not :/ #so now whenever i get days where i'm :/ #i'm able to say 'i feel Bad' without even having to think hard #(honestly I say a lot of 'i feel' phrases a LOT. it's like.. the only way for me to process shit?) #(like- 'i'm tired' or 'i'm hungry'- i'll say them out loud without even physically noticing the feeling) #(and my brain goes 'oh yeah! we are! we should fix that' that's how i exist) #but i've noticed i've been saying 'i don't feel good' way more frequently lately #probably the seasonal depression idk #idk if i actually have acutal seasonal depression tbh coz my depression was way more general and not time-based #but i've been calling it seasonal depression coz it's just #mounting anxiety and dread bc i know winter is Bad For My Health #idk. #you know. i was supposed to be set up with a therapist back in august. #fuckers never called me back. #sucks too coz that counseling center actually had a booth at Pride when i went so i was really excited to go there :/

"So I just deleted the email app from my phone"

That's a solution I never thought about lol, but wouldn't that make you even more anxious to miss something?

I don't know how to explain this but what actually bothers me about app notifications is not the fact that I might be missing out on something, but the bubble thing on the app icon itself. for me it's like a constant reminder that the "task" of checking my unread emails needs to be done. And i would rather decide myself when I do this very behated task, instead of the app telling me as soon as I get another email.

#does this make any sense at all or am i just weird idk #tbf i deleted it when I saw this one Netflix documentary about social media #and that you should use social media #instead of it using you #i also turned off notifications for other more essential apps btw #i sound like a boomer lmao #but i reduced my screen time a lot doing this #ask #personal

[pearfight]

I really want to learn more Spanish

#personal #I took fucking 4 yrs of it in HS and I forgot it all. I know NOTHING #and actually using it in a c ountry that speaks it. it was really nice to actually be Immersed #and use some of it that i rmbr #I just wish I had anyone to speak it to. which shouldn’t be a problem bc I fucking live in F lorida but ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ #so I should try. I want to know it #if anyone has any tips or apps to help pls lmk #thinking of downloading duolingo again but like. I want something better ?? #like I could never SPEAK AND UNDERSTAND only write and read #and that’s mostly all reading yknow? #I just want to Know More #idk

here's your fucking feedback @staff

list of problems the removal of icons causes:

i cant see my friends

ruins the sense of community

can't tell at a glance who's online right now and what they're interested in

literally cannot tell without scrolling back up who put a post on my dash if it has a single addition attached to it. or like. 2 paragraphs in the op.

i cant click my own icon at the top of the dash to quickly view my own blog

can't tell who someone used to be if they change their username

squashes the margins between the menu and posts, making the whole dash feel more cramped

ruins the quick visual cue of how long each post is and where it ends when you're trying to scroll past ones youve seen before

people put a lot of creativity and individuality into icons, and now i never see them

makes people who primarily reblog instead of make their own posts all but completely disappear

list of problems solved by removing icons:

?????

who the fuck was asking for this

ive never in my life seen a website or app that has profile pics forcibly HIDE them, so i guess you did it you made the dash unique again in the worst way

here's some more feedback: maybe when you run an a/b test you should, idk, actually have a feedback form people can fill out about it somewhere

#tumblr #tumblr changes #tumblr updates #i hate this and honestly the difficulty in finding a place to give feedback #makes me really sympathize with the people who just cuss staff out all the time
