#yesterday was just super bad

[chrimsone]

Boss makes a buck, I make a dime

So I apply to other jobs on company time

#work reform #ik the first part isn't the original phase #but the wealth disparity is even worse than it used to be #and this has alitterstion and also rhymes #but yeah supervisor decided that all of a sudden I need to me micro managed even tho I'm the best in my area #I've already been fed up but with no car and no degree my options are limited #yesterday was just super bad #and i ended up venting a bit to the cashier at nearby petstore #cause she's retail she understands the woes #she mentioned they're hiring #I remember looking uo wages prior and they weren't the best #and so I brought it up #but she was like 'yeah our minimums 15 :(v #well fuck me because I get paid FOURTEEN AN HOUR #so that's still a fucking raise #and instead of working for a dying clothing store #I at least get to work for animals

Malevolent gods

Are better than none

#panic in her song lyrics era??? #maybe ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ #overall i think crisis actors is a pretty great song but GOD do these specific lyrics live in my head rent-free. #the idea that it's more comforting to believe the world is controlled by known malicious forces than to accept bad things just happen. #and that they're out of anyone's control. #something super relevant to today's political climate and it's expressed really well in this song. #um anyways #kirby series #void termina #hyness #dark matter kirby #francisca kirby #flamberge #zan partizanne #oh also yeah this is a real drawing version of that doodle i posted yesterday. lol #panic's favorites

Adding lineart cuz I liked it:

#sonic the hedgehog #sonic frontiers #dark Sonic #dark super sonic #Steamed doodles #it’s been 50000000 yrs since I last drew anything Sonic I missed him #just beat Frontiers yesterday I’ve got the brainrot Bad

Hello! I just saw you post some Maitre Gims, and I know you like Stromae, so I was wondering what are french/french speaking singers that you like the most? You may have answered smtg like that already but i couldn't find it and I am, as always, very curious ^^ -☆

mc solaar!!!!!! and stromae for sure. and i had a whole renan luce phase in college. otherwise i mostly just listen to individual songs and don't tend to know a ton by the same artist, but i've liked some individual songs by christine and the queens, lous and the yakuza, tryo, kana, bénabar, vianney. some other artists but that's a sample. currently only know two french-language songs by mika but i like them. always looking for recs if you have any!

#i do not have an established discovery pipeline for french music it's just been like #1) friend gives me a mix cd in high school that includes mc solaar and some other artists (thank u jesse <3) #2) professor gives me a mix cd in college that includes renan luce and some other artists #3) i listen to these on repeat for approx. 20 years and get a couple of mc solaar's and renan luce's albums #4) a kind follower on here sent me a spotify playlist last year #that's it that's the pipeline lol #oh i forgot 3.5) discover papaoutai by stromae in idk 2015 or something. but i have no recollection of how i found that song #my experience is neither broad nor deep in this arena #french #music #asks #not anon #i've finally moved on from listening to the same three stromae songs because i've mostly learned the words #so now i'm trying to learn the words to some other songs including the maître gims song i rbed earlier #my problem is that i don't really know what a song is about until i look up the lyrics #sometimes i can get the gist but usually not. so i get a song stuck in my head and then look up the words so i can sing along #and that's when i learn what it's about. and too bad if the subject is not one i want to have stuck in my head lol #got an mc solaar / vianney collab stuck in my head yesterday. super catchy. i look up the words. it's about suicide???? #which i am maybe not in the right headspace to be singing about right now. but here we are. whoops!

Humble brags from this week because I feel really accomplished and proud of myself

2 months on T looks hot as hell on me and it feels even better. I was given a work/study student of the year award by my supervisor yesterday completely by surprise, and I also picked up a certificate of recognition for trans day of visibility from the student community & leadership development office at my school. I accepted my offer to work in the library over the summer (better $$ than I thought!) so I'll finally have a legit job after 5 years (and in a field I love)! I'm working on a course with one of my favourite profs and it's looking good -- I got to design my own syllabus so it's all about transmasculine theory & life writing, which will prep me for grad school if I so choose. My partner is graduating college and we're planning to do a grad trip in Montreal with our pals. All of my coworkers and peers have been so wonderful and kind and supportive since I've gone public with my transition (even the one who had a lot to learn -- she has come super far and I'm really grateful for her). And I just checked my GPA and it went up a little! 8.5/9, babeyy.

#maybe it's just because the sun is out and i'm at that Good Point in my -- eugh -- my cycle #also maybe i've been depressed and under too much stress too long lol because i want to feel suspicious #things are a little TOOOO good.... hmmmmmmmmm #no but i'm super happy. glad i'm still around and got through the bad shit. glad i'm getting further and further away from my teen years #daddy gets shit DONE #i need to actually stop calling myself daddy but no i won't. i'm the father of my 21 year old friend through-and-through #i just think it's funny for a pee-wee like me to call himself daddy. it's funny!!! #also my (favourite shh) coworker complimented my little moustache yesterday and i feel so SEEN

ipad kid :p

#my art #my ocs #grimm #agate #meant to finish this yesterday but my nieces were here so i let them play minecraft instead of drawing :p #also um. i was gonna change the colors cause i dont like em #but the file got fuckey. so the colors are super fucked up in a comically glitched way #n i dont want to redo the colors from scratch 😭 i just wanted to change the saturation a bit 😭 #o well tho. thats my bad. i saw the lag when i saved n still added more layers anyways skdjshkdjsa

[birdmenmanga]

I know other people are keeping their birdmas things under wraps but I think this goes rlly hard and everyone should be hyped for this. anyways how many times do you think I can draw the bus crash before I get sick of it

#just thinking thoughts... #this is the third time if I'm not mistaken #1st time was for the bodyswap AU. 2nd time was for snooze. this is the third #but yeah I was in a really bad funk yesterday and the day before #I was like. having [REDACTED] and also [REDACTED] and then [REDACTED] on top of that #but like genuinely drawing bird stuff instantly fixes me and idk why I seemed to have forgotten that lol #anyways. if I want this done by end of december I need to not be such a perfectionist. #you can see I'm trying super hard by only using rough artwork instead of clean artwork #we'll see if I can like. keep this going. you know. keep it going. #I don't know if the black bars should go away after 'kedo' or at the drop #I'll figure it out tomorrow #I should work on the trailer but like I need some short term stuff too

I am officially a Lyney stan now. I pulled for his weapon even tho I initially wasn't planning to. And that says a LOT about me bc I generally avoid bow users bc they're difficult for me to use LOL

#I've never been good at aim & shoot games and I'm REALLY bad with bow characters #But for Lyney...........I HAD to get his weapon #And I spent all day grinding yesterday to max it out njfasdksa #Shima speaks #Genshin Impact #Lyney #He is just so!!!! #He is everything. He has all the traits of a genuine Shima Favorite™ #He's cute. He flirts. He's super sweet. He has a dark past. He loves his family. HE'S GOOD WITH MAGIC. HE'S A BIT OF A TRICKSTER. #UNGHHH. I LOVE him

…well, turns out changing to a Jo pfp is fitting in more ways than one.

#yeah turns out I’m going to be having a Jo and Laurie on the Hill moment. hopefully not to such a dramatic degree but #I went out with The Boy yesterday and I was dreading it so much #and it was fine but then at the end he asked if we could make it official that we were dating #and I asked him to give me a little bit of time to think (which he was super sweet about he did literally nothing wrong) #but yeah I just came to the conclusion within ten seconds of leaving the restaurant that it wasn’t going to work. like I felt nothing when #he asked me that question. and I wanted this to work so bad! it makes so much sense on paper but I’m just not feeling it #and I talked to my dad about it and he said that because the part of the brain that processes emotions is not connected to the part that #processes language aren’t connected that people who are married struggle to put into words why they married their spouse #so if I can’t put into words why I don’t want to date this guy it’s perfectly valid #and I suppose he’s right I just feel terrible about it. like how often do you find a guy this courteous and genuinely good? and like I #think maybe part of what’s bothering me was that there was almost no romance to this. like never at any point did he tell me that he even #liked me. it was just ‘hey we’ve hung out a few times now should we say we’re dating?’ and I’m not trying to rag on him he’s probably just #shy but it rang a little like a business proposition to me #but ugh. now I have to call (because I’m not going to do it over text) and break this poor boy’s heart #it’s a really good thing I have the play and my novel to distract me otherwise I’d be a mess #anyway prayers would be appreciated

the worst part of taking ibuprofen is the bit after taking it WHEN IT DOES NOTHING. HURRY UP IM FUCKING DYING

Roxie purring :)

#please don't mind the obnoxiously loud humidifier #this silly creature was half a pound and super six at 6 weeks old when i took her from the barn to a vet (the farrier scooped her off the #road) #and she is now a petite 6-7 pound gremlin who makes my heart full to bursting when she graces me with her attention #she IS a gremlin with unfortunate hand/ankle chasing issues but she also really loves lap time & shared naps #i felt so bad yesterday getting up after a short nap where she'd been sleeping on me and i was moving slow as i got up so she'd have time to #move and she just stayed on my legs like on a rolling log as i turned over from prone to supine like...Mother...you are resting further are #you not? I may lounge still longer upon thy bony shins? I crave the solid foundation under the soft bedding. Mother? #no. I'm sorry lunch break was over 10 minutes ago and i have to get back to doing nothing at work #(it was a slow day yesterday) #cat

I actually feel so sick and miserable

#i feel a lot like i did when i had covid but covid for the most part was just a super bad headcold for me #with ALL of the symptoms turned up to 10 #im wondering if i have a sinus infection? #i know i mentioned i took a test yesterday and it was negative #well that was before i remembered my mom's also been fighting a bad cold for like a week now #for which she did go to urgent care and they gave her both a covid and flu test and they were negative #so im guessing i probably got this from her and it's not covid but i will keep testing myself #but whatever it is it's AWFUL #my head hurts.im full of fluid. i can barely watch richard iii :( #tales from diana

#sorry sorry I just woke up and im having yesterday-was-weird thought again #and they are going here so i don't have to talk to the person that they're um about yet #basically im glad that im in a good enough space now that um #someone ive ive had text-based sex with and uhhh sent an ill-advised video to in like oct when i was Feeling Bad™ and doing. hm. too much. #like 6 months post text-based sex/ill adised video now aha and we've not spoke at all since like january and that was 'how was hols' #they asked to meet up 'not for sex just as friends' or i forget exact wording but basically that #no-pressure museum not-a-date #and i said I'd think about it. because i am as everyone knows a fucking idiot. #basically im glad that im in a better place now than the last time someone like expressed an interest in me as a person #because while this did give me a day long wobble i didn't have a full weekend long actual panic about it #tho they are two v different situs #an ace poly friend asking to go out with me vs someone i uh virtually fucked aha um asking to meet up for (mostly) being-friends purposes #same several-hours-later 'oh god no what have i done bad bad bad no thank you actually no sorry i cant sorry' but less intense this time #but at least i only said ill think about it? #and not actually immediately said yes because it's nice to feel wanted #and then gone Maximum Regret™ because actually all of this is way too much i don't like it i don't want it thank you but im sorry no #weird. i guess i don't have such a high baseline stress level any more? since i'm not at uni n stuff #and someone over messages going no pressure you want to be irl friends (maybe fwb no pressure)? is um #is different. to someone irl going you want to go out acely? yeah? awesome lets hold hands here is the discord with a whole buncha people #i guess #but i am being equally aro-not-super-ace Autism™ about it aha #and i am. eventually. going to be like. thought about it and no sorry. eventually. #if they ask again #i am kinda hoping they'll leave it there and forget they asked so i don't have to navigate social stuff #im much better at navigating canals everybody leave me alone please thank you #(everybody over there leave me alone. y'know. you guys are fine.)

I'm sorry to hear that planning has been stressful, but best wishes this Saturday!!! I'm so excited for you and your wedding and your marriage and wish you every happiness 💕.

Thank you! I am very excited too! Mostly because I get to marry the love of my life 🩷🩷🩷 but also because there are only four days left and judging from my track record this last month that means I will probably have to deal with🤞🏼only🤞🏼four more things going wrong! 🎉 And then I’ll be married to my favorite person and the stress will probably be gone! ✨

(Please send good vibes my way it’s been a very weird hectic month 😂)

#if anyone’s interested in all the stuff that’s gone wrong #I’ve had to deal with my venue #my caterer #and my photographer all cancelling last minute #I still might not have a photographer bc I need the venue to sign off on his insurance and he still hasn’t sent it #my fiance asked me to wear a Pakistani dress and the one I ordered came late and was terrible #like who uses BLUE MARKER to mark out where the embroidery is going on PAPER THIN WHITE SILK???? #I got a new dress tho and the tailor should be done by Friday morning #our guest list just keeps growing bc his family doesn’t seem to understand the idea of an RSVP #my fiancé’s family also doesn’t seem to like the idea of specifics 😬 #or understand that we are trying to keep things small #aka his mom invited five more people last week and told me about them today after I already submitted a final guest count #communication has just kinda been terrible all around tbh #my phone keeps trying to commit suicide #we were informed of a serious allergy like two days ago #so now the menu has to change and our caterer is super unhappy about that #my fiance asked me yesterday if I was wearing a veil and then asked me to wear one so now I have to find a veil #I realized on Sunday that I never actually asked my cousins to be my bridesmaids #which isn’t so bad since no bridesmaid dresses but it was embarrassing #and my anxiety caught up with me yesterday and I spent the night stress puking! #it’s been great 👍🏼 #but I’m going to marry the love of my life on Saturday and that’s what matters #even tho it kinda feels like the universe is trying to tell me otherwise

when they say it's "immigrants" it's always the ones that aren't white lmao like it was never super obvious but it's always been this way

#to whoever was surprised about the dublin riots #like ireland still has its fair share of racists just like every other european country its just not gotten as bad as it got yesterday #it was terrifying and i was in town. managed to get out of there quick and safe but this is a place i'd be out even super late #never found it scary and now i'm scared to go there even during the day lol #personal
