#roommate trouble

[cinnavanillamelody]

So I wanna vent, about something really quick, and then we'll go back to our regularly scheduled programming.

I like, hate. College. I hate it, I hate the premise, I hate that they're bleeding me for money, but most of all I hate the people. If I could do college with 5 other people and we all had our own rooms I think I'd like it more. It started snowing today, and the campus is covered in snow. And if you know anything about me, I hate the cold. I hate being cold, I hate being outside in the cold. Because when it's cold, it's guaranteed I'll probably get sick. I'll get chills, the flu, a cold, something.

I wanted to go to a college in North Carolina, but they didn't accept me for an art program, so I ended up at my current college in small-town Pennsylvania. It's cold here, in the winter. it's so goddamn cold I don't want to go outside. I shouldn't go outside. And lucky for me I don't have to go outside because I have everything I need, inside, where it's warm, and I won't die by slipping on ice.

But apparently, my roommate thinks I'm STUPID for calling one of my co-workers to see if my job on campus would still be open. When I could've just "Walked outside to see if they're open" and "It's not that cold". FIRST OF ALL the air outside has to be a certain degree to even freeze the water in the sky and make it dense enough to fall out of the sky in the form of snow. in other words, IT HAS TO BE COLD, TO MAKE COLD WEATHER, AKA SNOW. And I left my warmest coat back home by accident, so I'm even less guarded against the cold weather. And I'm also anemic, it doesn't matter how many fucking layers I put on, I can still be, (and usually am) cold. She wouldn't let me explain why I don't find it necessary to go outside in the cold when I can just as easily find out the information I need by CALLING SOMEONE ON THE PHONE. Yeah sure she may not be here on campus, however, this probably isn't the first time the school's shut down because of weather, she would probably know if the school job that we both work would still be open. Which she did, and now I know whenever the school is shut down, my job is too.

I started to raise my voice because when someone insults me, the natural reaction is to defend myself. And when someone repeatedly interrupts you in conversation, wrongly assuming you're done and continuing to invalidate your feelings and emotions because THEY think it's STUPID and you're being DUMB AND IRRATIONAL about weather you aren't used to, their argument being "You have to get used to it at some point since you live here now"

Technically, I don't actually live here. I don't have a permanent residency here. I can't vote in this state. I live in a warmer southern state. My home is in another state. I am "living" on a college campus. But in the next 3 years? I'm not going to be able to live here. I don't stay here during the winter and summer. I go HOME. I FLY TO ANOTHER STATE. Technically I don't HAVE to get used to shit. I can get my degree, and move to fucking California where it doesn't ever snow. And I can hate the cold all the same. Because it's my right to not like cold weather, yeah I complain about it, but I know it's something I have to deal with. That doesn't mean I have to "learn to get used to it" right now just because you fucking say so. And you don't have to fucking call me stupid and illogical every time I don't want to go outside. That's rude. You can think it, but you don't have to say it. I'm seriously starting to rethink my friendship with this person because we can be fine and friendly, and instantly jump into an argument fucking 5 SECONDS later. I don't want to even live with this person anymore, I'm just dealing with it because the alternative is living with someone I don't know.

UGH IM SO PISSED OFF

anyway, rant over. Now we return to the regularly scheduled programming. 🍫

Advise, Please

How do you fix feeling pissed, at least enough so that sleep is possible. The person who caused/initiated this feeling is already asleep so I can't talk through why they pissed me off with them and work through the issues, but this is honestly not really something I've had an issue with before now and I'm really not sure how to handle it.

(Testosterone is a hell of a drug and when an already stressful day has someone being an asshole on top of that...rage...very much rage)

au in which touya ends up having to watch natsuo put his hands all over you because you took something offered to you at a sketchy warehouse party that has you panting and whimpering and burning up and his own hot hands can't provide you any comfort but his little brother's cool-quirked touch can

#touya can't take you to the hospital because you took the pill willingly and he doesn't want you to get in trouble #and he feels so guilty because HE'S the one who brought you to the stupid party anyway #your apartment is too far away and your roommates already think touya's bad news so he doesn't want to give them another reason to hate him #so he drags you back to his house to try and help you ride out the high #and you're kneeling on the floor just inside the door to the todoroki home half-dressed because you keep trying to peel off your clothes #with touya pleading with you in a frantic whisper to just stand up and make the short walk to his bedroom without waking up his siblings #and a bleary eyed natsuo (still up and studying for a test he has the next day) finds you and his brother in the doorway #and natsuo doesn't understand why you're clinging to touya and behaving so strangely #but he does know that you sound pretty when you whimper like that #and that the way that the dim light in the corridor catches in the sheen of sweat on your exposed throat makes his chest feel tight #tw drug use

Ryuk makes his grand return and is brought up to speed with Light and L's immoral union. The date seems pretty successful~.

Maybe it hits a little different knowing for a fact that it's coming from Kira's mouth directed towards him of all people~ #Also the picture where Ryuk is saying he'll scram when things get heated is probably my favorite drawing of him that I've done! #he was so intimidating to draw especially over and over in comic form. such a far cry from my usual human style #but like all things I gradually became more and more comfortable drawing him. I'm very happy about that! :) #I have a dumb idea/headcanon concerning the nerds' first copulation attempt~. #if I decide to include it here I will definitely try to age restrict it even though it won't necessarily be graphic. #don't wanna get in trouble lol #I have more trouble drawing spicy scenes than I do with shinigami subjects XD #tw: food issues #they both eat the sketchy 'apple' to prove they're not cowards... despite it not being the smartest idea in the world. >_>

Au where somehow Megatron and Optimus somehow end up renting the same apartment together and that that's how they met

So far my excuses are going for librarian!Optimus pax (just roll with it) and Megatron being in medical school

A lot of it is fanfiction tropes, IDW designs, and Riot ship magic

#maccadam #transformers #megop #megatron #Optimus prime #orion pax #<same guy #i could not commit okay #Megatron having trouble finding a certain uncommon textbook only to find it on his table the next friday #Optimus found the relevant datapad wedged between bookshelves at the library he works at #definitely a no war au #it's an idealized version of the education system let's roll with it #I'm doing this for the ''and they were roommates'' jokes

[tippenfunkaport]

#don't worry I'm almost out of nonsense I won't keep doing these forever #or will I? #I'm just imagining Light Hope and Shadow Weaver's ghost co-habitating like terrible roommates #and everyone is like... should we do something about that? #or is it perhaps hilarious and we just let it run its course? #spop #shera #she ra #polls #shadow weaver #light hope #double trouble #swift wind

another tpac ch 11 snippet

...

“Stop looking up KVM switches, Korv—my setup is fine.”

“It’s for me,” Korvin insists. When no one believes him, he amends, “And it could be for you too, Barbie.”

“You don’t need that kind of setup,” Dick absently calls out as he enters the room, holding a couple of documents and envelopes under his arm.

Korvin ignores him. “Just thinkin’ it’d be really convenient: less of a rat’s nest, multiple interface points, rack mounting—”

“—I do not want to see you raccooning around my cables,” Babs says firmly. “Appreciate it, but no.”

Korvin’s mouth twists into a petulant scowl as he turns back to his assigned reading; Gotham Academy is reopening their campus for the spring. Tim’s due back in his dorm end of next week—meaning he’s supposed to be home for his dad to drop him off the day before—but he finds his motivation for school has reached an all-time low.

“Korvin Kwan—what the hell?!” Dick’s indignant question interrupts their peace. The large envelope he was carrying earlier has been opened, revealing three large 8” x 10” landscape photos on the table top. Each one is a blown-up snapshot, slightly blurry like through another layer of glass, of an urban intersection and focused on the first car at the stoplight.

If Tim squints, turns the photograph sideways, and backs up a few feet—it wouldn’t be so obvious who was seated in the front. At that angle, though, he—

Dick snatches one of the photos off the table, puts his face right to the print, and pulls back to stare blankly at Tim. The lack of expressed anger is a warning sign; Cass abruptly gets up and moves to stand next to Babs’s wheelchair. Meanwhile, the older vigilante looks back and forth between Tim and Korvin, jaw tight as he’s working through some internal debate.

When Dick finally decides to fixate on Korvin, Tim can't explain the little bit of affront mixed in with his reflexive relief.

I was just reminded that I have some lore on Lou that is kind of hidden in the comments of Future's Ready to Shine that it might be a good idea to share, especially since soon I'm going to be really seriously working on the parts of the AU that center on him specifically.

For the most part, I think stories should stand on their own without needing a lot of extra clarification to make sense, but honestly, Don's limited perspective just makes that really hard when it comes to Lou. Don's used to knowing what everyone is feeling in the astral plane, and struggles to interpret people without that, and Lou's in a complicated place. So here, I hope this helps:

#hold every memory au #I envy Ame's ability to balance Rise goofiness with 2k3 seriousness #I cannot do that so well so have a somewhat troubled Lou with many concerns #Don is not a Level Four Roommate yet so he doesn't get to unlock Lou's tragic backstory or current stresses #(PSA this is why you should only ask me about something in a fic if you really want the answer because I will happily ramble forever)

I do think the general rule of you can never add too much garlic is a good one, and important training wheels for normie midwesterners, brits, etc (sry 4 the cheap shot lol)…however I just spent literally over 30 minutes slowly browning onions and cumin perfectly for my mujadara and mixed it all up with the lentils and rice. And then I fucked it up supremely by adding garlic powder. Just stomped all over my painstakingly cultivated browned onion flavor :-( :-( :-( :-( what I have now is horrible quotidian lentil rice. My beautiful fleeting mujadara…she is gone…dead with all the things that made her special……….learn from my mistakes. Ouuuuuughhhhh :-(

#I’m so grumpy :-( #whadda waste of onions… #grrgrgrgrgrggrhrgrggg #I’m so fucking mad!!!!!!!!!!! #I will feed it to the roommate. but it’s one of those low resilience high emotional volatility days plus i m having SOOO much trouble #getting sufficient food in these days and I’d been thinking about the mujadara for hours and it’s all I wanted to eat and I ruined it. #this is not a real problem I’m just being a BABY #but WHY did I do that. why #and I made 6-7c like that was the base of 3 dinners auyuugghhhhhgghhhg #it’s just that I have zero appetite due to the vague health issues and I’m nearly six foot and I swim laps 5-6h a week like I have got to #be eating UGH… #and this was like the only appealing and palatable food I could think of. and the only reason it’s so hard is because I haven’t eaten #nearly enough today but I was planning to FIX THAT WITH THE MUJADARA…

guess who's officially dropping oouuuuuut✨✨✨✨✨

#im soooo excited. goddamn. my apartment is insane rn #i mean i have to figure out how to break my lease. </3. but if i can find a way to do that #then i can go HOME. i can get my ass out of this hellhole (college). #we love WINNING. #one of my roommates wants a CAT pets aren't ALLOWED i dont want to GET IN TROUBLE for that #plus with all the extra people already living here. i do not want a fucking animal too. #i really really really really hope i can get my lease ended early. i want OUT of here #i have yet. to have a good roommate experience. i'm starting to think maybe i'm the problem here. #but also i keep being put in Situations (tm) with roommates. one after the other. it does not end. #so hopefully. hopefully. i can get my ass outta here. #winter speaks #personal

Saturday Morning Confessional

Hell lingers behind every shadow;

I leave the lights on, yet they stay.

Electricity bills climb higher,

Nights get longer,

Temperatures colder.

You’d think Hell could pay a heating bill

Once in a while, but in spite,

The nickels and dimes stack up.

I miss the sun.

This daughter of God thrives on routine,

But the clock shifts back and forth;

The government’s grasping attempt

At brighter mornings. Bitter as I may be,

I am grasping with them.

Light, light, God grant me more light;

Even if it casts shadows, at least

I’m not in the dark.

For all the scrambling to daylight,

I sleep longer, frittering away

Morning hours. Shorter days chopped

Ever slimmer. I used to sleep

When the sun went down; beat the

Dark to my bedrest and

Flee from the fear. Now, it’s 6:30PM,

The night already creeping, dinner

Not yet made. I stay awake,

Forget time, shiver in the gloom.

It does not bode well for winter.

Thanks be to God, who turns the planets on their axes

My alarms went off on a Saturday, and

I could not get back to sleep. Thanks be

To God, from whom the sunrays burst

In helium-synthesis glory; the day was

Majesty’s declaration, cool and bright and joyful.

Thanks be to God, I got up early, amen.

The laundry’s in the dryer, the food bought

For the week, the carpets are all vacuumed;

I’m resting, not asleep. May every chore I do

Be prayer and praise together:

Thanks be to God, I’m having a good day.

Hell lingers behind every shadow;

May God’s angels clear them away.

#orchids write poetry #I’m not sure if it’s really sufficient to call it seasonal affective disorder #but I do get more sad and tired as the days get shorter #I miss the sun #and this fall I’ve had a lot of change. wresting w roommate troubles #wrestling with my faith. trying to find God without being consumed with fear or anger. #and tbh I’m kinda at the point where most days I’m Goin Through It a little bit #but last night I called my friends and talked about a lotta stuff #and had a real good sleep and dreamed about visiting them irl #and today I woke up early and thanks to some encouragement was able to get a lot done #(by a lot I mean grocery shopping. laundry. vacuuming. and taking out the trash) #for me that’s a lot of chores to do. but I did them! and now I can rest while I wait for my clothes to dry. #and then fold them and put them away #and maybe if I’m feeling so brave about it #I’ll change the sheets on my bed.

would it be gauche to crowdfund a decent desk chair. bc my current setup is Not doing it (wooden chair w a memory foam cushion on it), it’s painful to sit in for more than ≈30 minutes, & like. a huge part of the reason I have trouble regulating my sleep is that there’s nowhere comfortable to sit in my room that isn’t my bed. & then the sleep deprivation makes my chronic pain worse. but it’s also not like. a bill or a completely necessary expense so im hesitant to ask for help getting one

#getting one on the lower end of ‘nice’ would be like $200-300 #I’m just. having trouble job hunting bc of pain issues & trying #to get caught up on everything I was neglecting over the semester bc of time/burnout #(we have couches downstairs but I also can’t be down there for long periods of time bc #sensory issues with the Three Bulldogs)(& my roommate & his kids love #playing video games & watching tv at ‘shake the floor volumes) #(not at all conducive to trying to write or do art) #marc.txt
