#they take their jobs so seriously

[bage-the-gabe]

I was in target today, and we went back to the fitting rooms, and there was an employee there. I don't remember what they were doing, I think organizing clothes to re hang them. They had a service dog laying nearby, just hanging out.

I go to one of the handicap fitting rooms, there were two, and the one I went into had a lot of clothes in it. I made a comment about it to my mom, who was with me, and the employee heard and started talking to mom about how that's upsetting to them, and how they're mad about people not doing their jobs, and accessibility stuff. I couldn't hear it all that well, because the room was a bit away from them, but that's the gist of it.

And I just thought - that's really damn cool. This person, who doesn't have a mobility aid, actually cares about accessibility! Yes they had a service dog and so it's something they would have to consider more than abled people, and obviously I don't know why they had the dog, nor is it my business, but I still thought it was so cool! It was really kind of touching - I can get around some of the obstacles that get in the way when it comes to accessibility, simply because of the kinds of problems I have and that I'm used to having to just push it away and suck it up, but there are plenty of people that don't have that option, and they need people like that Target employee to care, to give a shit about them and actually say something about it.

It was just such a touching, nice experience that I wanted to share. It's things like this that give you hope for the world, just a little.

Roku insinuating that Kyoshi bullies the previous incarnations in the spirit world had no business being that funny.

#Kyoshi: so I hear you didn’t take your job seriously? *starts punching bitches* #Queen #she’s not here to play #Roku: Kyoshi can be very stiff- *starts sweating realizing she might hear him* #Kyoshi after Aang leaves: So…. I hear you’ve been talking sh- #They would just need to have Ozai on Kyoshi island so she could possess Aang and the war would be over in less than 10 seconds #avatar the last airbender #atla live action #spoilers

*tries to organize my thoughts*

*remembers i'm not in school and therefore beholden to neither heaven nor hell nor any man's grading system*

*joyously shredding & tossing all my carefully arranged 3x5 mental notecards into the air like so much beige confetti. raising my arms in victory, cheering raucously until i accidentally inhale bits of homemade confetti*

(*coughing up itty bits of paper like a cat evicting a hairball with a firm understanding of tenants' rights*) wait wat happens next

hiiiiii just wanted to say that I absolutely adore the way you draw Melanie. I am a humble lesbian and the one you did of her in Alternate Archives of her in business casual did things to my heart.

Ah, office lady Melanie my beloved

#I liked designing her #so #I'm glad you like her #I imagined that in this AU she really wants to look professional #and wants people to take her seriously #but she has no idea what she is doing #this is her first “normal” job #BA in media didn't serve her well #I wish I can draw all my 6 AUs at once #anyway #occudo's art #tma fanart #melanie king #alternative archives #archivist!georgie au

Burnt out

#initially this was meant to be something else entirely #but i wasn't really liking how it was going so I scrapped the idea and opted out for something a bit more personal #ive been really suffering from burn out for the last few years and just barely keeping my head above water #there are times where i seriously feel like ive failed in every aspect of my career #like if i were good enough i wouldn't have burnt out #i love my job and i love my trade i love every skill ive gain up until this point #but its been hard not to take it personally when all the effort you've put into honing those skills #are abused or exploited #life is difficult enough already and and time is fleeting #taking time for yourself is above all the most important thing you can do to help your work flourish #taking a break isn't failure #its health #we aren't machines despite our industries treating us as such #just waiting and hoping that itll pay off #ive certainly learned my lesson #and im looking forward to brighter horizons #and healthier more respectful ones #ill be okay ive learned how to love my art in my personal time again #but i certainly need to let my mind rest and my body to recover #these tags are lengthy anyways #unionize and dont work for nothing from large companies #be gay do drugs love your friends make art for yourself too #my art #scuttles out of here #i hope these long ass images actually show up in full resolution #i did draw them fucking TOLL as hell

Sorry for being so inactive lately... been busy irl, and have been meaning to post here more often, but also, like... I always feel a bit shy approaching the 'kin communities on here because it kind of feels like everyone is sort of... "internet poisoned"? For lack of a possibly-better word. A lot of folks here on tumblr in the 'kin and alterhuman communities are children, and a lot of more prominent community figures treated like "elders" are only about my age or younger, and it feels really strange, to be honest. There's a lot of discussion of feelings and terminology, but very little "lifestyle"? It's like there's a universal expectation for everyone to just figure everything out on their own; you get some definitions here and there yeah, but the amount of variance says much more loudly "just figure out what it all means on your own, pal". ex. Not only can no one actually explain what "otherhearted" actually means sans relation to otherkin, but it feels like I never see anyone talk about dealing with what one could call "kin feels" in the workplace, when unable to acquire your habitat, etc... Othercon is online-only, and while I'm pretty sure I'd be unable to attend an in-person event, part of me has a hard time feeling like everyone is really taking it all seriously and is really unafraid of being "cringe" when obviously it's so much easier to act like you're so confident online. I kinda feel like meeting some wolfkin stereotypes in a park for snacks and doing a group howl would do more for me than years of reading essays on tumblr ever has.

I dunno, I tried watching a recording of an Othercon panel I felt would be relevant and useful to me once, and was floored at just how... utterly useless it was. Despite its promising title, it was just shallow "you're valid" garbage and internet discourse... Makes me feel severely alienated, to be honest.

#'youre valid' this 'just journal' that I'M ALMOST 30 WITH JOB AND TERRITORIAL why doesn't anyone have anything irl useful to say to me #otherkin community #othercon #alterhuman #otherkind #otherkin #fictionkind #fictionkin #I'd LOVE to visit the Silver Elves or something just to see someone in person who I know takes this stuff seriously #like... people who are actually trying to live AS their kintype and I KNOW they are. because all this online posturing makes me feel alone #but they're in HAWAI'I and so I can't just take a road trip + am not Doing That to the already-colonized-and-sick-of-tourists-Hawaiians

I know majority of people think “haha Nick does stupid shit and Judy has to keep him in control” which don’t get me wrong is a funny trope, but I like to think canonly it’s the opposite.

I’m not saying Judy does stupid shit on purpose or for no reason, but she is very case-focused and will stop at nothing to finish her job, even at the risk of her own safety. Girl puts her life on the line multiple times throughout the movie and arguably if it weren’t for Nick she would’ve ended up dead. He is much more concerned with their safety and making sure they both make it out okay from dangerous situations.

So yeah, Judy is just as capable of putting her life at risk, and Nick is the only one actively keeping her alive

#I’m not saying Judy is reckless #she just takes her job very seriously and to her solving the case is top priority #she doesn’t purposefully put hers or nick’s life on the line nor does she want it to come to that #but the safety of Zootopia is more important to her #even Nick’s safety is more important. bc in the end she literally tells him to leave without her so he can get the evidence to Bogo #and notice how he refuses? how he won’t even think about leaving her to die just to close a case? #yeah he’s definitely the only reason she hasn’t killed herself trying to chase a speeder down the highway💀 #zootopia #judy hopps #nick wilde #wildehopps #lady luxo rambles

How am I supposed to be normal when I have to wait a whole week for Grover and Annabeth to learn Percy isn’t actually dead and they didn’t just loose another friend who sacrificed themselves to buy them more time and Annabeth didn’t just loose one of the only people who ever cared about her without making her earn it all because she wasn’t able to see he was tricking her and Grover didn’t break his promise to Sally and do you understand me? That after Percy fell Echidna and the chimera would have come after Annabeth and Grover which could only mean one thing and they had to leave the arch believing they failed? How long do you think they had to wait until Percy came out of the river? How long did they sit beside each other, not saying a word because they failed, they failed again and now they have to finish this quest alone?

#NO BUT SERIOUSLY DO YOU REALIZE HOW SICK GROVER MUST FEEL #he was supposed to keep percy safe #it was his entire job #sally made him swear it minutes before she died #percy chose him to come on the quest specifically because he believed grover would always have his back #annabeth was tasking him to take care of percy and get him to the river #and grover wasn’t able to stop him #percy was sick and half dead and grover still couldn’t stop him #you’re telling me you’re just going to make me leave him like that for a whole WEEK? #that poor BABY???? #unacceptable I need a time machine right now #i’m so serious that cliffhanger was so rude and disrespectful i’m going to fight richard riordan in a denny’s parking lot #percy jackson disney+ #percy jackson and the olympians #percy jackson #percy jackson spoilers #grover underwood #annabeth chase

this quote too!! it’s about how the writers are so good at not just doing plot-points bc anne did them but genuinely justifying their presence in this adaptation it’s about the metaphor of death it’s about the self-motivated growth that lestat does need to go through to end up with louis in the end

#interview with the vampire #i love them i love that they take their job as adaptors so seriously lmao #m
