tdov was like a week ago already but I just wanna say when I came over to vacation slash help my sworn brother move flat he told me, "ever since you said you wanted to get top surgery I've been thinking about it. it's straight up number two on my bucket list"

#bakuspeech #number one is a house bc obviously. if u can own a house wouldnt u #he was very drunk at that time of the evening. I was not bc I have the constitution of a hot air balloon and any stimulant will blow me up #(relatively new development. france fucked me up big time turns out) #we held hand on his bed for like the whole evening. it was honestly very funny in hindsight but we were extremely earnest in the moment #and Im like. working on this thing as well. I dont got meds or therapy lmao Im bootstrappin here #but yeah early last year his bf offered to get me meds and I... turned it down... I think I was worried abt like. idk. something #but one year past looking back Im fully like that was a stupid move you shouldve gotten meds. youve once again fucked urself baku #but yeah with that kinda realization Ive also come to realized I've somewhat? accepted. that I'm just gonna be. like this #this in light of a number of likely chronic stuff too (hence my balloon-like constitution lmao) and #that's kinda bled into the rest of me without me really noticing #but him bringing that up fully unprompted... kinda jolted me out of it #its just. really incredibly sweet. that someone doesn't want me to settle for what I make do with #and like. preps for that work. just kinda held my hand and told me it's possible to do this actually #I didn't really express how I felt very well in that moment I think my brain is very bad and I process emotions with like a day of delay #but. well. Im thinking abt it Right Now. so yknow thats the kind of impact that had on me lol #not super sure why I wrote all this down here really. I think I just want a good n nice reminder that object permanence is real #and I exist in my friends' life even when Im going insane in a hole by myself #and with the power of friendship we can alter the universe's plan for ourselves and also kill god #that's that. anyways I eat lunch now and then pass out probably. last night was... eventful lmao #but!! very good things on the horizon hopefully. well manifestly we hold hammers and we use them #have a good day lads. let's go out and slay monsters under a highway

barnes and noble has been raising the prices of everything and further pushing for their premium membership option (which they raised the price of by 60 percent this year!) and then when they have big sales events, they're less than what they used to be.

last year at this time you could get one of their leather-bound book annex tomes for $12.50 (without a member discount) because of the 50 percent off all hardcover sales. but they raised the price of those tomes from 25 bucks to 30, and they decreased the sale from 50 percent off all hardcovers to 1/3rd off. so that same book that was $12.50 at last year's end-of-year sale is now 20 bucks. and that's supposed to be savings enough to induce me to walk into one of their stores this week?

i'm sorry but b&n has just gotten so greedy, even though their business has only been doing better and better in previous years. they do not have to be raising prices like they have been, and they can damn well afford to have the same savings events they used to. if you went to one of those hardcover sales a year or two ago, even if you lived in a less populated area like i do, you had never seen a b&n so busy in your life. things were flying off the shelves. they WERE making bank.

and as a company they've only been growing and growing (as much as the publishing industry has been, in recent years). but there are so many other ways to buy books. CHEAPER ways to buy books. MORE SUSTAINABLE ways to buy books. and since books and booksellers are doing really well right now, i don't see why barnes and noble is getting so greedy when they don't have to be. i dont like new shiny books that much. people buy books for the content, ultimately. sometimes we as consumers might make the choice that a new shiny book is worth paying a bit more for, but not that much. barnes and noble has just been demanding more and more of their customers' money for less and less benefit.

#kaily and i shared a membership account for several years but she cancelled it over the summer #bc of them raising it from 25 dollars per year to 40. i'm sorry but we just were not spending enough to make that worth it #the benefits for a member used to be 10 percent off everything in-store and free shipping online. #now it's 10 percent off everything in-store AND online with free shipping. which sounds good enough #but not for a 60 percent pricehike. and a bunch of other supposed benefits no one would ask for #like a free tote (geez. thanks. yeah i really need a free tote every year) and like. a free treat at a cafe on your kids' birthday? #i dont have a kid. #between the two of us. we were not buying 400 dollars worth of stuff at b&n every year #oh and it's also 10 percent off the in-store starbucks. but im pretty sure that USED to be a benefit they had #years ago?? like i SWEAR ive gotten money off at the b&n starbucks so i guess they got RID of that at some point #and gave it BACK when they HIKED UP THE PRICE TO 40 BUCKS A YEAR #text post #barnes and noble #it's a shame bc where i live. barnes and noble is the only like fancy bookstore #and i live in an area that my barnes and noble... is like. what a boston barnes and noble eats for breakfast. #it's two floors. there are plenty of books that it doesn't have. plenty of sections that are very small #like the poetry section is just pathetic. i look at it every time i go and it just makes me sad. #i guess a lot of the book annex stuff contains poetry but still that's not really enough to entertain a rich interest in the genre for long #i outgrew the limited selection at my own local b&n poetry section by the time i was twenty. i was like i already know everything here. #which isn't to say i'm an expert in poetry. it's to say that the poetry section is barely bigger than a shelf #in fact ive never thought about it before but I OWN more poetry books than you'll find in the poetry section #at my local b&n. lol #i have a lot of nostalgia for b&n even though it is a big company that does not love me. i have very few books i bought new #that are not from barnes and noble. i got so many books that changed my life from them #i guess it's like a childhood/teenage attachment at this point bc ive had more mixed feelings abt the direction theyve been taking #for several years at this point. #and no i dont mean that theyve been expanding to selling more toys/games etc. theyve literally always done that in my lifetime. who cares. #they still have books #as an adult ive been more capable of seeing how limited their book selection is and how i have so many problems w that. #and it ultimately comes down to them being a big greedy company

My 3 little cousins were baptized today. "Triggered" is kind of a strong word but being in a catholic church again... I'm a little fragile rn ngl.

#butch speaks #it was hard not to shake as i held J over the basin to have the water poured on his head #when he was cleansed of sin. as if a little kid could ever knowly or intentionally offend a so-called loving god #the words came naturally to me #but they meant nothing #i remember when they used to mean something. when i begged gods forgiveness for my sin (being a lesbian) and tried to pray the gay away #i remember how much i wanted to die bc i could never truly embrace the sacred #i STILL deal with the complex of catholic guilt. its a very real thing. its hard to shake #i cant help but wonder if the catholicism ingrained in my brain is why i have a hard time with casual dating n sex #fun fact: there was a point when i was a teen that i got REALLY catholic #i prayed everyday. i talked to my patrin saint (st agnes) every day. i wantsd to become a nun #the thought of marrying a man mad me more sad than feeling like an alien did. so id marry the church as a nun. #not the way to hide being a dyke when ur fam is catholic btw LMAO #the first priest i knew was father joe. i loved that guy. he was so kind. friendly. briming with love. #he was one of my biggest references for what a good person was like #he talked about gods love a lot. how its for everyone. no one is exluded. ever. #he used to look right at me when he said stuff like that. a few other kids too. all of whom grew up to be queer #then father joe passed away. our church merged with another church. father jeff was the priest there. #he was kind but not as kind. he talked about hell and sin more. he looked at the same kids father joe did. #but the kindness in his eyes wasnt there. #that wasnt for us. #my family wasnt even THAT catholic #i went to church every sunday i did vacation bible school and catechism classes and youth group #i was an altar servant and in the choir #i even used to speak/understand a little latin #imagine how much worse id have been if my mom could have afforded catholic school lmao #grateful to have grown up poor in that regard #hm. actually... reading my own tags. mayne we were pretty catholic actually. #fucking hell. #i need to have lesbian sex in a church before god and everyone. mayeb that would fix me.

i am going to preface this post by saying i am not intentionally trying to make anyone feel old, But--

yesterday i found out that my coworker graduated in like 2011 right, n so i was asking her abt what Teenaged Life in the 2000s was like, and she told me that when she was in elementary/middle school, she'd submit her writing on floppy discs, and for whatever reason, that was just so unexpected to me. i just kind of assumed that people would either submit this sort of thing either handwritten or printed at home, and now i'm just kinda sitting here like "on floppy discs!!!!! (delighted discovery)" over n over to myself

#finding out that this coworker is almost 30 has immediately launched her to 'coolest coworker (to ME)' status #though i guess the fact that she is Also Queer helps with that. i asked her abt her gf n we ended up talking abt stationery #i remember looking through my dad's old stuff n finding essays he submitted that were typed on a Typewriter (in the 60s) #but like. that's a pre-computer era in my brain ofc one would use a typewriter #although when i discovered that essay i remember also being surprised it wasn't just submitted handwritten #anyway. idk i just think this stuff is cool!!! it's so cool!!!!!! i love learning the details of everyday life in now-bygone times!!!!!!! #the worm speaks #*squints out window* although i guess i should've expected the typewriter thing to have continued into the 90s at least #bc i remember seeing this cartoon called jacob two-two when i was a kid n the father char was a professional author #n he wrote using a typewriter. but i guess i must've assumed that was an anachronism? or for professionals only? #*shifting around a bunch of thoughts like tiles on a mahjong table* starting to notice that the coworkers i think are coolest are the oldes #which checks out bc everyone on this website knows that people just get cooler as they age. this is Proven. it's a Fact #like the coworkers nearer my age are Neat n all but i guess i get the feeling that i don't rlly know how to interact with/approach them #but the older coworkers are like chill and friendly n will talk to me First n generally have good n pleasant conversational skills #LOL i feel like a duckling that's imprinted on something or someone

[hua-fei-hua]

last night i had a dream that had something to do with reading a fic abt . well i wanna say "a haunted forest diner" but i've already written a haunted forest diner fic and it was not at all like that. anyway, it was this haunted forest diner fic in the sense that all its patrons were old forest gods of like decay and shit and in order to sneak in, you had to transform into like a deer, and apparently i was a supremely graceful jumper for a stag

but anyway i dreamt that that was a fic that i had apparently read and commented on months ago, but for w/e reason i had never read the replies to, and the author had replied that i seemed like a cool person n that they would have loved to have read some stuff i had written "but it seems you do not have any genshin works up..."

and honest to god all i could think upon reading that was literally "lol skill issue"

#and then i dreamt that i got one of those defeat the 8-12 hilichurl comms in genshin n i was like fine fine w/e #but after killing two i somehow figured out that they were not trying to kill me but instead trying to kidnap me to be their medic #and i was intrigued enough to be like 'okay' n sat down on this white blanket thing they had set aside for me #n one of my friends (don't remember who) was like 'yo you good?' n i was like 'yeah they just want me to be their medic' #n my friend looked at me suspiciously n was like 'well the comm isn't over you have six more to kill but if you need me i'll be over there' #n she pointed to where the trumpets i knew in high school (minus cody? i think?) were having sectionals under some trees #it was definitely trumpet sectionals but for whatever reason my brain decided to edit out cody So fucking True get redacted idiot #anyway so i just waited around in the warm sun untild a bunch of humanoid creatures started coming down the hill #i think they were supposed to be bosses or smth but none of them are in gnshn even tho we were def in mond or liyue by this point #and they all had different colored faces but anyway my friend was like 'THIS IS WHY WE HAVE TO DEFEAT ALL THE HILICHURLS!!!' #'BECAUSE IF WE DON'T THEN THEY'RE JUST BUYING TIME FOR *THESE GUYS* TO COME!!!!' #n i was like 'oh shit!!' n we started fighting them n they were really tanky but we got most of them except for the blue one #and so i went back to the haunted diner place n entered it as a human n went upstairs where i found the author in my dreams #n she said that we couldn't talk long bc the blue guy was after me but she'd distract it by joining its side #and also there was like this whole subplot in between abt like uhhh exchanging love for power i think? idk i don't remember rn #i just remember that the author temporarily exchanged some of her like. goodwill or smth to buy me time to prepare for my fight #with the blue guy and so i hiding in the bathroom listened w my ear pressed against the wall as she became corrupted n then it was #my turn to fight the blue guy n i opened up the door n stuff but then i woke up :c #anyway so that was MY dream diary for today everyone leave your own recent dreams in the replies and we can have a discussion lol #花話

love how indigo and unova both end with ash going “wow, what a fantastic experience” with a full theme song drop as they reminisce on their adventure over the battlefield in the sunset like those weren’t the worst written leagues in the series

#ok done with unova league. thought id do that in a day as i did chores just to get it over with #im glad im now on the n arc which i actually like #ok so now that im all refreshed on the unova league…. yeah still dont know which one is worse #like on one hand. stuff actually happened in the unova league and we got a couple of good battles as opposed to one #we actually see who wins even if ash doesnt battle him. and the overall animation is of course better bc more resources #but on the other hand. knowing that its trying so hard to emulate indigo (which they literally ditched and changed up all the worst ways #that they had handled it) just bc it was nostalgic. even though it makes absolutely no sense for where the characters are at at this point. #idk it kinda makes it feel worse? like indigo was awful and i hated it but at least that has the excuse of being their first try #and having a lower budget and sorta having a decent reason for ash to lose even if its contrived #like. there was a reason they couldnt show too many battles #echoed voice #like by all means indigo’s technically worse but on principle of trying to copy it at all? wtf best wishes #i know bw was a soft reboot at first but i dont see why that meant that they had to try and copy os all the time. it just holds it back #and the league is the perfect example of that. im not saying it had to be this grand epic event where ash is a badass who wins one sided #its even worse bc at this point they were literally dropping some of the os copying so why bring it back at such an awaited arc?? #idk. back to my original question of which is worse? they balance each other out idk #pokeani lb

[angel-archivist]

I really do love ppl its almost 1 am but like yeah... people doing people things!!! Like those small moment interactions with people that leave impressions. People being kind, and goofy and indulging others for split second moments that make you laugh and make your day...yeah

#retro.bullshit #like i graduated last sunday and we took photos and stuff n there were these guys doing like drumming! n they were rlly good #n while waiting for the light to turn so we could cross the street one of the guys makes eye contact with me and whle drumming congradulates #me for graduating n i thank him and he starts playing a different tempo and hyping me up to do a little dance n IT WAS SPECIAL AND IMPORTATN #AND SO SO SILLY #n i just think that was a GOOD HUMAN MOMENT #where he took time out of his day to make a random high school graduate feel special #he didnt have to but he did and thats just... god i love ppl

[hannahchronism]

bagel w/ cream cheese + coffee rly is like the top tier breakfast. preferable with a fruit but the fruit doesn’t have to be there to make it good. the literal only improvement to be made is a blueberry bagel over a plain one.

#this #reminds me of the time we moved but it was complicated so actually for awhile it was just me n my dad in the apartment #and since it was just us and i was moving schools and he liked to cook he was like #''just us- what do you want for dinner it can be Literally Anything That You Can Think Of'' and he meant it i could have said #literally anything and he would have found a way to get the stuff for it and made it #and i. said. fish sticks. #because we did not eat them a lot because neither of my siblings like fish all that much #(i however love fish) #and but they were not there and i did not have to consider that they do not like fish sticks and i knew that Dad also liked fish so i said #fish sticks #anything at all? fish sticks #((we did in fact upgrade to like. beer-battered fish fillets which is like fish sticks if you aren't 9 and it was a good choice i think))

finishing high school this week and i deel so weird about it. like i can't believe this part of my life is almost over.. its scary that i have to live beyond this now but it's comforting that i have actually made it this far, yknow? it's been an absolute nightmare but i can't help but be sad about it. idk i just wanted to tell you since i was thinking abt you today :) <3

good luck w graduation !! it was really scary for me at first but once u realize literally everyone else also doesnt know what theyre doing it makes it pretty chill .. i get what u mean tho. i hated school a lot and most of my school experience was shit but even if ur just observing at the back of the class school is still really fun and funny . i didnt make any friends the last three years of hs because of moving around so much so i just sat back and people watched most of the time and i miss a lot of the silly interactions and stupid shit i watched other ppl do. i miss it a lot. but at tha end of the day (if ur not going to college) u never have to do a test ever again and all those days u spent crying because u didnt do ur hw doesnt even matter. its great.

#i would nevwr say like ' wish i could go back' bc i was horribly depressed n tired in school #but there were some very good days #one time in like sophmore year in math class (the only math class i ever enjoyed) thid girl told everyone shes been writing down like #funny quotes and stuff from the class the entire year #and the teacher was like oh my god literally read them right now #and we wasted rhe whole period just laughing over what everyone had said that year and it was really goofy and nice #but yea #its scary but also literally nothing changes #ur still mentally a child. when u graduate its not like ur full grown adult now #im 19 and still feel like im a 15yo idiot kid #u just have more freedom now #thorne tag #asks

Tfw i avoided dealing with applicants for like 2 weeks so I had to play catch up today. Stayed like 2 hours late reviewing all 20 ish applications we got in this time, contacted 12, and I have a confirmed 4 interviews for this week with a prospective 2 more

Look at me being all manager-y lmao

#speculation nation #most of them r on tuesday bc thats my set long manager shift n lmao #confirmed 1:30. 3. and 4 on that day. prospective 2 and 2:30 (waiting to hear confirmation) #with One on wednesday! bc the person isnt available until then #lmfao i really am playing catch up big time but THAT is okay. We Good #god tho i really understand that one class that addressed resumes now. how they were like Keep It Short #bc recruiters dont have time to read big massive resumes lmao. & god thats so real #zipped down to education to know what i was dealing with. Then looked at prior work experience. Then availability. #education relevant Primarily so i can know when/if theyve graduated high school #bc not graduating isnt an automatic deletion. but it's good to know Especially for if someone's a minor or not #we already have a lot of high schoolers rn lol so im kinda leaning more towards Not in high school for this stuff #aside from that it's mostly assessing capability based on what little evidence there is. + how long they would be likely to stay #there really is so much going into reviewing all this lmao. & oh god i really am the obnoxious kind of employer kind of #like not Really. im giving everyone a chance should they fit within the criteria we require for hiring. #but a few ppl messaged us asking up on their applications n those ppl get mental points in their favor for caring about our position #caring enough to ask after it at least lol #ultimately im reserving judgement for interviews. but tbh theres a few ppl im on the fence about contacting #that r in the vague status of 'will pursue if they contact us first'. which is SO obnoxious of me actually but like #there r way too many ppl i have to consider for this. if im not sure how well a person will fit here then them putting that extra effort #is a great way of convincing me that theyre worth my time #that kind of thing of like. if They show they care then i'll end up caring more too #theres actually a high schooler i Probably wouldnt have considered but bc she messaged very actively im interviewing her too #reserving judgement. still have my doubts. but bc she put in that effort im gonna give her a chance. #ah. thus is the life of a fucking recruiter i guess lmao. god i hate it
