Finding Belonging
Hello to my first follower! I hope you enjoy the blog, and I apologize in advance for the sporadic uploads *nervous laugh*.
I am starting T on Monday and I am so excited. Hopefully this will make this meat suit feel more like home. I start my new job on Thursday. Next week is a lot of new starts. Hopefully they will all be for the better. I am excited and nervous about starting T and about the new job. I am going to be among people like me at my new job. There is another nonbinary person and a trans person at my new job. It gets so tiring being the only trans person at work. I used to work with someone at my current job, what seems like ages ago, who is trans. I miss him. It is just a special kind of connection T4T relationships (of all kinds) have. I feel like the new job is going to be good for me, as is the T. I am just a creature of habit and forming a new one is always hard. The new job also offers a new opportunity for me. I can be assertive in my decision making and lead my team. I can make it a vow to correct every single person who misgenders me. I haven't really made an effort with customers at this job to correct them. It's always hard and you would think they would notice my pronoun pin (they usually don't). I will miss the regulars here. I am so temped to just tell them all where I am going so I can keep seeing them, since I will be in the same industry. I don't want to out myself as leaving though since only my bosses here know. Oh well. I doubt many people will miss me here anyway.
Next week is going to be interesting, but I know I will make it through. I will learn the new commute and the new people at my new store. I already have a friend who is working over there. The raise, the union job, the support from my team and from the company... it outweighs the 40 minuet car drive and the first day jitters. Better things are yet to come.

Holy crap, I didn't think Biden would be able to get the Climate Corps established without Congress. This is SUCH fantastic news.
--
"After being thwarted by Congress, President Joe Biden will use his executive authority to create a New Deal-style American Climate Corps that will serve as a major green jobs training program.
In an announcement Wednesday, the White House said the program will employ more than 20,000 young adults who will build trails, plant trees, help install solar panels and do other work to boost conservation and help prevent catastrophic wildfires.
The climate corps had been proposed in early versions of the sweeping climate law approved last year but was jettisoned amid strong opposition from Republicans and concerns about cost.
Democrats and environmental advocacy groups never gave up on the plan and pushed Biden in recent weeks to issue an executive order authorizing what the White House now calls the American Climate Corps.
“After years of demonstrating and fighting for a Climate Corps, we turned a generational rallying cry into a real jobs program that will put a new generation to work stopping the climate crisis,” said Varshini Prakash, executive director of the Sunrise Movement, an environmental group that has led the push for a climate corps.
With the new corps “and the historic climate investments won by our broader movement, the path towards a Green New Deal is beginning to become visible,” Prakash said...
...Environmental activists hailed the new jobs program, which is modeled after the Civilian Conservation Corps, created in the 1930s by President Franklin D. Roosevelt, a Democrat, as part of the New Deal...
Lawmakers Weigh In
More than 50 Democratic lawmakers, including Massachusetts Sen. Ed Markey and New York Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, had also encouraged Biden to create a climate corps, saying in a letter on Monday that “the climate crisis demands a whole-of-government response at an unprecedented scale.”
The lawmakers cited deadly heat waves in the Southwest and across the nation, as well as dangerous floods in New England and devastating wildfires on the Hawaiian island of Maui, among recent examples of climate-related disasters.
Democrats called creation of the climate corps “historic” and the first step toward fulfilling the vision of the Green New Deal.
“Today President Biden listened to the (environmental) movement, and he delivered with an American Climate Corps,” a beaming Markey said at a celebratory news conference outside the Capitol.
“We are starting to turn the green dream into a green reality,” added Ocasio-Cortez, who co-sponsored the Green New Deal legislation with Markey four years ago.
“You all are changing the world,” she told young activists.
Program Details and Grant Deadlines
The initiative will provide job training and service opportunities to work on a wide range of projects, including restoring coastal wetlands to protect communities from storm surges and flooding; clean energy projects such as wind and solar power; managing forests to prevent catastrophic wildfires; and energy efficient solutions to cut energy bills for consumers, the White House said.
Creation of the climate corps comes as the Environmental Protection Agency launches a $4.6 billion grant competition for states, municipalities and tribes to cut climate pollution and advance environmental justice. The Climate Pollution Reduction Grants are funded by the 2022 climate law and are intended to drive community-driven solutions to slow climate change.
EPA Administrator Michael Regan said the grants will help “communities so they can chart their own paths toward the clean energy future.”
The deadline for states and municipalities to apply is April 1, with grants expected in late 2024. Tribes and territories must apply by May 1, with grants expected by early 2025."

I have so much anxiety right now and I have to go to my professional practice(?),... I don't know how it's usually called in other places but basically you start working at a professional workplace, supervised, as the end of your college career... The thing is, I don't feel prepared, and I'm so afraid of rejection and failure because of trauma I havent gone through, and I'm just so scared of fucking things up, and my anxiety is at its biggest peak ever this year, and I just don't know how to feel less like my mind is trying to kill my body and more like a normal human being... I just want to sleep and never wake up again... The only reasons why I'm still going on with my career is that it's been delayed for so long, and I'm at the last semester right now, and if I don't do it now I'll have to quit everything because I can't pay and they're already charging me this year and I just can't do it anymore, I have been trying to stop feeling anything just so I can go on but right now it all came back and I wanna cry and cut and sleep and forget I exist...

HAPPY VALENTINES DAY GRANDMA!!! I JUST GOT A NEW JOB AND IM SO HAPPY!!! GIMMI SOME SWEET TONKS AND PERCY WITH CHERRY ON TOP TO CELEBRATE WITH PLEASE ❤️❤️❤️
After Crouch is found dead and Percy is offered his old boss's job, he comes to talk to her about it.
Except it's not just a discussion about his career. He's as serious as she's ever seen him, sitting with his elbows on his knees and his hair a mess. For a moment she's worried that someone is wrong with his family, that Harry didn't really to manage escape that maze unscathed, but he says, "I'm going to do something stupid and I need you to know about it."
She sits down across from him, still in her work clothes, but this is clearly important. She wants to take his hands in hers, but knows he won't appreciate the touch when he's this jumpy. "Okay. I'm listening."
"Fudge wants me as his assistant. Dumbledore thinks that I should take it," he says.
"They offered you the position of department head," she says incredulously. "Why would you take an assistant position?"
He swallows. "Dumbledore said a bunch of crap about influence, but really he wants a spy in Fudge's office and for me to head off some of his stupider ideas if he can."
"So what? You've earned this and making Dumbledore's life easer isn't my priority, or yours," she points out, trying not to sound too angry about it.
He nods, agreeing with her, but then she doesn't understand what this conversation is about until he says, "I noticed a lot of loose ends working as Fudge. Things people say and do and money that doesn't end up quite where it should. A lot of that is inherent in politics - the same could be said of me, in some ways - but it's deeper than this, I think. I want to take the job as Fudge's assistant because I want to find proof of his and his people's corruption and use it take all of them out."
She stares. This is huge. People have tried to get rid of Fudge or his people before and they ended up in jail or worse. And they weren't a few years out of graduation when they'd tried and failed.
"Why are you telling me this?" she asks. She knows Percy. He wouldn't want to talk about this until he'd already done it, until the proof was in, but he's telling her before any of that.
"You're my girlfriend." She still gets a thrill when he says that. "If I get caught, you could get some of the backlash. And I could just go missing one day, or be framed, or just thrown in Azkaban. And I'm not going to put you through that without warning you. If this is too much for you, it's okay."
"Don't be stupid," she snaps even as her heart swells. "I didn't go through all this trouble to get you to date me just to give you up now. I'll help, however I can, but I'm with you every step of the way. You know that."
His shoulders relax and he reaches out to take her hands. "I just want you to be prepared. If I'm lucky I won't get caught, but I might not be lucky."
"You have me," she says, tangling their fingers together, "you don't need luck."

It's really, really nice to have a doctor say, "Oh yeah, that makes sense" after years of having people tell you your pattern of pain can't be happening and/or is inexplicable!

ok tomorrow I’m gonna go in to work and have a meeting with my managers and if they decide they can’t reconcile with what I am asking, I am going to quit.
my brother literally just died from lung cancer presumably caused by his job and I cannot sit in whatever fucking fumes are coming out of that machine anymore. It’s unreasonable and unsafe and they are going to be facing severe legal action should anything happen

on to 2024… 🌸
if you had told me that “kiss me in komorebi” has 168 posts under its belt, i wouldn’t have believed you. almost 200 posts, and we’ve had one rose ceremony? 😅 you know i can’t resist a story!
uber gushy post under the cut ⬇️
2023 was an incredibly amazing and simultaneously terrifying year for me. we moved out of my in-laws house and into our first apartment, only to get removed from our jobs unfairly and driven to near bankruptcy as a result. i’ve had intense highs and devastating lows, and throughout it all, my friends here and my little pixel people helped me keep my head above the dismal despair of every hard moment.
i’ve been incredibly removed from simblr as a social space lately, and aside from my usual social anxiety FOMO, i regret it because this is an amazing and truly wonderful community that deserves more!! we are all bonded in our mutual experience of “i imagined this and it excited me so much that i just had to share it with someone, i hope you enjoy it too” and that has done so much for my own personal sense of creativity and imagination 🥹
tumblr limiting me by 30 pics is obscene because i saved over 100+ in reading back through this challenge. seriously, how has so much and so little happened?? and really, it’s not so little at all. the wonderful creators who entrusted their sims not only just to me as their watcher™️ to have in my game, but also as a writer to give them voice?? i have enjoyed every second of watching these tiny little artificial intelligences interact with one another, and as we advance into the more serious portion of this challenge, i will miss every single on of them as they continue on this journey with dan 🥹
who, by mentioning, is my fucking son. i have never been so emotionally attached to a sim before: i’ve loved all my gp sims, you have to!! but i look at dan and i know his story (well, of course, BUT STILL), i know who he is and i just… i love the lil guy 🥹🙏 bless you all for giving his hunkiness a place in your hearts: he has flourished so far beyond the stoic, kinda-grumpy dilf he began as (and we can all thank nova sammyshuno for his existence at all) and i am so thankful this challenge took him in a different direction than what i originally saw for him!
he is my lil goober and i would have him no other way 💛 my gratitude post is still in the works: i have a lot to do on the side for myself and my fiance, and even though i have every reason to continue on my mission forward with our sidework (voice acting), my executive dysfunction and general depression had me sitting on my ass this morning, scrolling through screenshots instead of editing maxwell’s vacation or recording audios to post. i am stuck in cycles, and breaking them has never been my strong suit. 😩
but this is a new year!! and i swear to everything, i am not going through another one like the last. you all will be seeing much more of me, both as a simblr and as a friend, and i can’t wait to see what this new year has in store for us 💛
thank you to all my wonderful contestants’ creators and the absolutely fantastic lot of you who are following along with daniel and his quest for love 🥹🙏 here’s to 2024 and all it has to offer!!
