Me: "ok, wait till it's in game and you have context to react. The storytelling may support the design"

Also me: "THEY FUCKING ELYSIA-IFIED SEELE!!!"

#honkai impact #I'm really not a fan of the new design direction in honkai #its not because of the individual designs #most of them are fine in a vacuum #its just together they all just sorta blur together for me #and its especially noticeable given how fantastic most of the star rail designs have been #ive been watching witch from mercury recently and it really made me realize just how much i dont like mihoyos art style #for characters at least (big fan of their environments) #the characters in witch from mercury all wear pretty similar clothes (uniforms mostly) #but they all look SO distinct because they go so ham on the body shape and hair and eyes and face shape and everything else #every mihoyo lady just seems to be some pretty lady with long flowing hair and like- #its not objectively bad. I just find it boring #i just want more variety ✊️😔 #honkai leaks

Will my suffering never cease

- went to good Friday evening service even tho it's not a day of obligation, didn't go yesterday evening to Maundy Thursday for a variety of reasons

- priest manages to fit homophobia and transphobia into his sermon. Not even gay marriage. Just unions, that let ppl share taxes and have hospital visiting rights. And big bad scary surgery. Like. Completely unrelated to the matter at hand. Says SO LITTLE abt the Passion, managed to talk for 10 minutes without really saying ANYTHING. Takes Pilate's 'what is truth' and instead of engaging in the long philosophical and theological discussion around that question, decides to use it as a rallying cry against wokeism and a godless progressive society.

- my two ex best friends were there. Ran into them. + One's husband, who I introduced her to a decade ago. Like I'm mostly over that, no longer shitty and resentful, fully know that it was partially my fault and born from my own terribleness at 19 and undiagnosed untreated mental illness. Still uhhh hurts tho??? As a reminder?

- music bad. Ok I'm petty. I'll give the trads (1) point. I don't like guitar mass. I will NOT agree with the trads in assigning moral weight to my aesthetic preference. It's simply a preference, which does not make any musical form inherently superior to the others. But the triduum really lends itself to Latin hymns and chants, in my heart. My other fave church music is traditional Black spirituals. I would greatly prefer either. But just. If it sounds like an acoustic version of a pop love song. I just. I can't. I KNOW I'm the weird about Jesus romantically girlie. But I am not vibin with this folks

Literally would have simply Walked Out. Hit da bricks during the homily. But was with my family so 1) cannot out myself 2) did not have house keys on me, so I was suck regardless

Anyway I said I wasn't going to do fun things today but I'm so upset and cranky and I did chores all day, I am going to catch up on dungeon meshi. Marcille is my best favourite cringefail girl I'm obsessed with her and surely the wlw neurotic fussy mage who loves her friends will not betray me like this

#the duality of fran #faith tag #also like #.highly unlikely that i was the only closeted queer person there #and obvs extra full of the triduum a lot of non regulars attending #so GLAD that they decided to make it such a lovely and welcoming environment for THE BIGGEST MOST SIGNIFICANT WEEKEND IN THE FAITH. #surely this will encourage people and make them feel welcome and loved and cared for #yes yes there's that flannery oconnor bit abt not judging priests harshly #but also. its one thing to have a bad homily #not discussing the philosophy of pilates question is fine. i get most ppl are not versed in greco roman thought #but the absolute just. whining reactionary social conservatism #ON GOOD FRIDAY??? #even going as far as to be like 'those few of us who keep the faith' #okay sir. this isnt some uwu im so special and faithful unlike all those abomination degenerate queers #gonna get gay married for tax purposes/green card out of spite #(green card both ways i can get u cad citizenship lmao) #remove my reproductive system. idgaf. uterus free to a good home. all it does is give me health problems anyway #tho that last one is less dysphoria and more just. it's a fuckin pain in my ass medically speaking #also the triduum is THEE celebration for the gay chrisitans. its john the beloved. its judas. its projecting for us ok

The KOSA bill is so incredibly terrifying to me as a precedent on a personal level because on paper it's to 'protect the children' but the real intended and desired outcome is exactly what I went through all my life, what I'm still going through for the time being

It sounds silly and people can scoff all they want saying how maybe it's not such a bad thing, but in the hands of the type of parents who want this bill it will do nothing but harm. There is nothing more isolating and paralyzingly scary than the knowledge that even online can't be an escape or source of help or community anymore, because the people who already have full control of your autonomy can now watch every digital move you make, censor and block absolutely anything they want. It doesn't matter if you're not doing anything wrong because to the parents who want this anything you do can be wrong, especially exploring and discovering your own queer identity - among any other number of things.

And of course it doesn't stop there because if they can pass this kind of bill, how much further can they push this?

#doc says stuff #ask to tag #yeah i just. i have thoughts. #I mentioned this bill to one of my irl friends who is a trans leftist and she just laughed it off #saying how maybe its really not such a bad thing to keep under 16 y/os off the internet #like no. you have to understand how bad this is #conservatives use children as their political puppets for topics like abortion and trans laws already #you cant trust them on this OBVIOUSLY #they have never cared about childrens safety #this will at the VERY least isolate queer kids in the hostile environment of florida even more

The commonfolk are allowed to bully every schnee except whitley!!! Only because I like him.

#feel bad for the billionaires guys cmon now #*former billionaires #in all seriousness it WOULD be interesting to see how they deal in a new environment surrounded by ppl who (justifiably) dislike them #but again. this is being written by you know who and i have no faith its like. going to be good. #i should make a poll about this actually. #whitley schnee #babbles

I feel like actually shit like the entirety of last week getting to me. I wish I could have a moment of actual relaxation and not just me forgetting I have shit to do.

i need more friends that i can give the responsibility of perennial native plants and perhaps shrubs and trees to

#p sure my apartment complex would only be down with just me using like flowers n stuff...... but i got trees n shrubs here toooooooo..... #that produce fruit...... .. . . .... . . #probably why they dont want it #but goddamn thats just gonna make the squirrels worse if we deprive them of anything @-@;; #how to explain biodiversity and the cycle of life to normies who think grass is the only plant that exists @ google? or anyone?? #'theres too many squirrels' #'and that doesnt have to be a problem if we just let bushes and tall plants and more trees grow in places where theres vast expanses of #just grass' #'bc then natural predators of squirrels will be more likely to live here and naturally deal w the squirrel population till its healthy' #how do i emphasize how bad grass is to someone who probably doesnt even care that much about the env to begin with #GOOGLE HOW DO I GET PEOPLE TO CARE ABOUT THE ENVIRONMENT AND QUESTION THEIR ACTIONS #BUT NOT SO MUCH THAT IT MAKES THEM GET LOST IN THEIR GUILT AND SOMEHOW TRY TO TURN IT ON ME INSTEAD #IG FOR MAKING THEM AWARE OF THE HARM THEYRE CAUSING #and then they just shut down and try not to think about it until they keep ignoring it and nothing changes and hhhhhhhhhhh #oh and how do i do this to my landlord without the risk of being hated by him and thus treated Differently #my problem is i have no filter and i say whats on my mind so idk if i can be nice about it BC THIS SHIT IS P URGENT TO ME

This winter (the season not the me) has been unseasonably and terrifyingly warm, like it's 10 degrees (Celsius sorry Americans) out today and I'm reminded of an article I read in the news a couple years ago about how Canada was baking at twice the rate as the rest of the world and go 👁️👄👁️. In my youth snow where I live would be probably a foot high in the lowest snow areas of snow drifts and up to my waist (in adult height) in the high parts, and every year I see less and less snow ☠️☠️☠️

On one hand despite my namesake I actually loathe the season winter, I'm extremely sensitive to the cold and getting brain freeze because the wind is blowing against the direction you're walking in sucks booty hole. But like NO snow is extremely bad. VERY bad. Do not like living out the consequences of climate change because uh. Canada just does not seem to have winters like it used to and hasn't in years. It's like watching all the corn crops stop growing like they used to because the summers are so much dryer and hotter with the exception of last summer, which was almost wet enough to kill the corn with that. But they survived and grew bushy like they used to and it was kind of terrifying to acknowledge I hadn't seen a crop that good in years.

#winters ramblings #on one hand it genuinely is SO NICE to not deal with snow seriously it is SO inconvenient #beautiful to look at for sure REALLY stunning when its not literally blinding you but omG snow on roads #in the cities where i live leave HUGE slush puddles and the snow is so MUSHY and WET from cars #pulverizing it to a fine icy slush ready to SOAK your feet in freezing water. shit is inconvenience powder #but the environment is in NEED of the snow that is how this country works environmentally NORMALLY #but no now we have consistently spring weather and ever less snowy winters #although we did have a shitty winter a couple years ago but thats not exacy indicive of much when it goes against prior patterns #and also that shitty winter STILL wasnt the winters of my childhood. the snow was ABSURD then #and yes its because drifts were the size of ME but even the massive piles of snow plowed from side walks are so much smaller #IF theres snow pules at all weve BARELY got snow this year and none of it stuck!! #like damn its been gone long enough ill miss it exactly until i have to walk to a bus stop in it #when i was 13 ill never forget my parents making me return a movie in a snow storm and it took me FORTY MINUTES #to complete this task because the snow NO JOKE was up to my wasit the whole way and i was my full 5'6 then #the snow was HORRIBLE. and for reference how long it USUALLY takes me to walk uptown and back? #roughly 15 minutes round trip so it took longer to walk ONE WAY than it took me to do a round trip no snow #and thats the last time i remember having a REALLY bad winter on account of walking to school was ALSO hell if the sidewalk #wasnt already plowed and usually only the main streets got that and i was Middle Street so id be done when id be going HOME #but not when i was going TO school. that winter blew ASS butlike it was normal bring them back 😭😭

Celia 🤝 Rametto

technically using He/They/She [well in Italian and Spanish he/she aka lo/la and el/elle [if i remember right]] but actually having Situational PronounsTM based on who they around which leads to 90% of the time both of them using he/him and masculine terms externally even if they don't 100% identify with them all or even most of the time

#thebirdspeaks #gold & silver #celia #rametto #slaps them both #these bad boys* can fit so much complicated gender presentation #honestly celia and co exists in an au of jbba part five where toxic masculinity exists. #in a better worlds they would just use he/they/she #but fucking sexism and misogyny exist #and they cant appear weak #and its the 90s #and they are in an environment where in peoples eyes masculinity = power and femininity = weakness #which is stupid and wrong but thats the perseption #so ofc they will both act more masculine and lean into that part of their gender more often

just saw a job posting for management position of a conservation group i follow and tell me why the salary is 250k 😑 i know damn well you run on donations and grants and your field workers are making under 20 dollars an hour. not to sound like a commie but could we distribute that wealth? for the love of god?

#love hate relationship with environment orgs 😬 #i like scrolling job postings just to see what qualifications they like having and what they pay and its always the same… #field workers get nothing always. its so bad….. #its not even this org like whatever its all of them

[transmonstera]

you can add your experience to the tags of something and people will really think you're telling people that's what they should always do huh anyway

#i would rather disclose my disability and what i cant do as well as my transness in the interview so they can be shitty on the sly #and Not hire me #than not tell them and try and hide it until i Have to tell them and am then forced into a hostile work environment which Has also happened #i stand by sometimes you can just be honest about employment gaps especially if its some shit like retail they do not care #it really is not that deep and you dont need to @ me and screenshot and write five paragraphs about how its bad advice #if you think that wont work for you simply dont do ot #also while i said i got the job offer the next day i had to ask a week in to lower my contract and i could only get that approved because i #had told them im autistic #soooo idk idk idk whatever what do i know im just a person with experiences that might differ to others and for some reason got put on blast #many such cases i guess

this location within the spiral, the spirit realm itself, stands out to me as a very memorable area. design wise i just really enjoy it, very fond of the stylization and simplicity of it - and specifically one of my favorite elements from each world in this 2008 wizard game was the fun skyboxes, and i find the ones drawn for the spirit world to be particularity striking. this area ultimately just is very different from everything you’ve seen up to this point, even when compared to nightside and such. it serves as an arena for only two battles - if im not mistaken - and thats also a reason why i enjoy it so much and leads to so much of the memorability to me.

the other delightful thing about this area, and what most people remember it for, is the strange sight found if you stand and peek over the edge, you might be greeted by what seems to be a ghostly blue face of some sort, staring back

this is just. here. it disappears and reappears maybe every 20-40 seconds or so, and to add onto it, all music would stop playing when standing at the edge, and you are only left with ambience and this oddly misplaced asset - however, while this asset has remained here for 14~ years, the effect of only ambience seems to have been patched out? and for a moment i almost believed the “face” was missing aswell, until of course it reappeared to greet me

something interesting that i noticed recently - what ive never seen anybody bring up about this odd weird little freak, this alleged “creepy face in mooshu” is the fact that its actually the asset utilized in the wraith spell

theres not really much else to say about this connection, i just find it interesting. and when it comes to the actual asset itself you could still ask ... what is it? id say its a skull, but it really does just look like a face. who knows. maybe it truly was misplaced in this void, or some cheeky developer thought it would be funny to place down there. its one of those “creepy mystery/phenomenon in an old video game” things that i just really love, and i hold the few bits of “creepy” wiz trivia very dear to me xP

#wizard101 #wizzy #i take fun creepy game mysteries like this very seriously and care about them so much. you'll have to forgive me for writing so much about a #single asset #i also just wanted to gush about old low polygon environment design #yipppiii yahooo #i miss this kinda stuff so bad. nothing beats a bunch of wizard kids going crazy over this one weird asset or arguing over whether or not #the ghost girl in the pyramid of the lost horizon was real or the alleged voices in the lava #i also just miss straight up playground rumors. you dont really get that anymore. mew under the truck. that time that somebody just made up #an evil animal crossing villager named brutus. and of course things like herobrine #everyone knows too much about whats in the files and what isnt. i wasnt even a kid who fell for things like herobrine but it was still fun #to think about #(nowdays we got deltarune which is like all those creepy internet/playground rumors but real. and its so fascinating #god bless

also also I know everyone likes to talk about how good of an archon Venti is because he left mondstadt to do its own thing and hey look Zhongli's doing the same now with his retirement but I also like how the story shows it isn't without flaws, with so much freedom in the city it's all too easy to take control with power, Mondstadt's people may be free but they also don't have a god to actually uphold the ideal they stand for and how personal freedoms conflict, discrimination(eg. against Eula and her clan) is allowed because the people are free to do whatever they want, the fatui really wormed their way into mondstadt during the webtoon + nearly did with Davalin bc the people of mondstadt do whatever they want so Jean is overworked and the knights are ineffective(according to Diluc), and how mondstadt might have been the least free place for the common people during the Lawrences rule despite being the region governed by the archon of freedom

Zhongli at least first tested his people were ready before retiring, Venti kinda acended, organized a bunch of celebrations for his people, then left them to have fun with their newfound freedom only interveining when things get really bad

#to be fair zhongli's only left his people for a couple of years so who knows maybe if he left them for long enough #despite honing his nation on honesty and contracts things would delve into chaos too #or a capitalistic mess and we all know what it's like to live in one of those #now if liyue didn't have plot-armour-due-to-chinese-region-in-a-chinese-game............ #my thoughts on liyue are 'god i wish its story was actually about the common folk common folk #but what i know of the chinese government is the communist party represents the common folk #so in reality it's more like common-folk-party-does-so-good-for-the-common-folk see????' #i really like liyue and its environment too! #wish they explored its flaws too and didn't present it as perfect due to china-chinese-media-relationship! #all of liyue's plots are like 'it's the time of the common folk i want to tell stories about the common people' #'(but also hold on to tradition and respect the traditions which are represented by the adepti)' #can we pls have some actual flaws like the rigidity of contracts and lack of change and rule of tradition #instead of 'contracts are good and honest and also change as the times change for the good of the people' #like yes zhongli at least tested his people before implementing that big change of stepping down #but also if the game didn't have to put china in a positive light tbh idk if he would have done that #as it might be more interesting to explore his archonhood ideal in both its good and its bad #and may have focused more on liyue's difficulting in changing and adapting to the modern tiemes #if venti is the god of freedom and is too free at times then zhongli the god of contracts is too stagnant at times #i have. complicated feelings about liyue due to my complicated feelings about being raised chinese #so mondstadt my fav for representing and giving people freedom #genshin talk

idk why my boss is giving me attitudetoo maybe cuz some parent prob complained abt me cuz i was talkjng to my coworker for a min during pick up bc we were trying to coordinate how we were going to close two classrooms with 30minutes left of the day and we didnt break up this ladys kid and some other kid who were having some petty ass two yr old fight on the playground

#like ok yeah i shld have broken it up but i didnt so what now. no one is hurt they werent actually fighting #they were just having some petty fight where they both wanted to b on the slide and were just screaming bc theyre two it wasnt actually like #physical #idk maybe these bitches shld givenus enough time to properly clean our classrooms and close etc cuz my coworker nd i were just trying to #work out how we were gojng to do that and its always so chaotic like two kids screaming we might not immediately run over to them when we #have like 16 other kids !! idk #anyway apparently she was pissed and complained to a diff coworker and probably the director too and claimed we were on our phones lol #like if i was on mg phone i was just checking the ratios and who was where and work stuff it was just an unlucky moment idk #like i feel like everyone's so focused on when u mess up only its getting old like watch ur own kid then bitch LMAO 😭😭😭idk #sorry im salty rn im just sick of parents rn like... #i feel like im working really hard and theres like no reward ig thats just life LOL but im sick of the toxic work environment tho #the vibes r bad i dont need it anymore. lol

i'm so bummed i accidentally turned town a job interview for a job where I could have worked with a good friend and mentor 😔

#i was telling her abt the preschool i got hired at and i was like yeah im worried bc the other teacher doesn't seem nice #and the student teacher ratio is really bad they're really understaffed and underfunded im just really worried it will be too much for me #and she was like oh you should apply to the school i work at bc we're hiring snd the ratio is great and the pay might be better also #and i never knew the name of the school she worked at until then #and its one i DID apply to but i told them nevermind after this one hired me 😬 #but now i really wish i'd taken that interview #i'm going to call or email first thing on monday tho and hopefullyyy i can get in for an interview before i start my new job on thursday #so i wont literally have to take time off for it #and then if they offer me i will be able to tell the new job nevermind while its still early #either that or i'll try to stick it out a few months then apply to the other one for summer or something #but im not sure whether its best to quit immediately or let them think im dependable and staying then leave in three months lol #but mostly for the other job idk if it would ruin the opportunity to tell them nevermind i want the job a week after i said no #compared to a few months later #they might have forgotten me by then which would probably be good #idkkk #my first reference literally works there which will hopefully help and maybe they'll give me a break #the pay scale looks the same as the one i just accepted but i think they'll offer less bc they're not as desperate #but i literally dont care its such a better working environment #and the pay scale is the same so they would give me a raise after a few months #and the work will be so much easier #and the commute #and i Definitely know i can work with my friend #vs the co teacher at this new job who seems really intense and unfriendly #anyway!! #im really anxious abt this new job and i'll stay if the other place wont take me now #but i really hope they give me another chance #also its super close and easy drive and the commute for the other one scares me a bit lol #this has been a shitpost
