I was supposed to start my vacation today but instead I worked an hour more than usual 🙃

#*grips sink repeats* I am doing good work. I am helping people #I usually never work over my contractually obligated hrs but I have a deadline 😢

Minor announcement:

Raised the minimum on ko-fi prompts from $15 to $30. I was averaging out to about $5/hr due to the research requirements, which is a third of minimum wage for my area (and a fifth of living).

I've fulfilled the other purpose these were serving, which was building up a set of nonfiction writing samples for a professional setting, so the discounted rates no longer make sense.

Thank you all for your understanding!

I currently have ten prompts in waiting, and I'll get those written up hopefully next week. Thank you all for your patience with those.

#the last three weeks have been chock full of Family Obligations and some Event Deadlines #so I've had very little time to work on anything that requires an internet connection for research etc.#ko fi prompts #personal #phoenix talks #ko fi #phoenix babbles

I need to remind myself often it's okay to take as long as I need to work on projects/drawings

#dangerous grind mindset territory >:(#i get so weird abt wips like #unless its extremely relevant no one is gonna care rly how long it takes #like if someone shared a wip with *me* and they took a while to finish it or never finished it #id still be like ahhhh so cool #but then i get into a weird mindset of like: you need to finish this TONIGHT #and then it never happens lol #as i said its only random occurrences when i can sit down and finish smth in one night #i need to remind myself: these things take time #i think my brain is sometimes running on a deadline that doesn't exist #theres a weird point btwn:#enjoying encouragement bcs it makes you feel more motivated to finish smth #but also feeling this odd sense of guilt and obligation #i draw for myself but literally for my whoel time drawing i often feel obligation towards a nonexistent audience #some imaginary force thats gonna be disappointed if i dont finish smth in [illogical period of time]#its good to have some sense of motivation obv bcs how would you ever finish anything #but its weird to start feeling the same thoughts abt schoolwork for your hobby #basically: I hate setting deadlines for myself bcs it just never works out #if i say 'you must work on this tonight!' i will absolutely not be working on this tonight #funny feeling when you start being like 'aaaahhh everyone is gonna hate me if i dont post this soon'#i think its nice when i can post smth i talk about in a quick turn-around #but rationally i know that if people are interested they wont care how long it takes <3 bcs id feel the same #also i guess i get put out some times seeing how fast other people can create :/#catie has 3 moods(for creation):#a. complete and utter burnout #b. not burnt out but finishing smth takes more than just one day. maybe a wk or more #c. can finish a piece in one day or even one sitting. often draws several things right after the other #C is truly the goat 🙏 i feel blessed when i get into that mindset #blah blah blah please stop feeling beholden to something that doesnt exist. thanks catie.#catie.rambling.txt

tuna i'm conflicted

should I finish the 3 bsd fics rotting in my drafts, or should I write another dazai fic (his birthday is in 5 days, and I'm so tempted. to write another fic for him despite just writing a big one)

hmmmm as a professional draft collector (20 and counting!) im gonna say ideally whichever one you're more excited for, but starting from scratch on a new fic does usually feel more motivating than trying to complete an already written draft. but most importantly!! make sure whatever you're writing makes you feel excited too! if you'd rather work on a draft then go ahead :)))

#forgot about his birthday #personally am not a birthday fic person (except for myself cos. its me) its too much stress to write before a deadline and what not #so ill also say dont feel obliged to write for his birthday unless you reallyyyyy want to!! and theres no such thing as too much #dazai fics...have you seen my blog ㅠㅠ its Tainted by him #ask 🐟#anon 🐟

But I just want to read my books by the window and go to the cinema to watch good movies and think about them for a long time and drink my tea and dress in baggy clothes and take showers and change my bedsheets frequently and live braless

#😔😔#Tired of responsibilities tired of obligations #Tired of deadlines and tired of having to decide what to make for lunch and dinner #Tired of an unfulfilling routine tired of not having time to just be

#next person who tries to tell me adhd is not a disability is getting bitten #i just had a fucking. sobbing meltdown bc i've been trying to get up and go to the library for like 2 hours #and i have a presentation due today that i forgot about bc all the other deadlines for this class have been the following monday #and i'm probably not going to pass this botany class despite having no job and few other obligations bc i just can't fucking #do things on time every day #i hate it i hate that college is just the Deadlines Test #i hate that i wake up some days and my stupid slug of a brain refuses to let me do the things i want and desperately need to do

ok so like tbh im bored of doing the whole "drawing an AT character every day of december" thing which i doubt anyone was, like, particularly invested in, except me bc i wanted to prove something to myself i guess? anyway. i've proved enoughhh

sooo yeah. i'll probably just go back to posting art irregularly lol

#tbh i mostly just want to try 2 get back into writing but i am silly n i keep making excuses like ''ough i have 2do That Thing first''#and then i put it off and end up doing nothing for like 90% of the day #sooo. yea #i also have this one other art piece that i have to finish (read: start) soon #so im not doing very much drawing outside of things i feel ''''obligated'''' to do (not in a bad way bc i'm enjoying doing the other thing #but it is. like. on a deadline. so naturally i've been procrastinating a lot)

Every day I've wanted to have a chill/relax day, something inevitably came up that made it impossible for me to chill/relax and I am going to go feral if something comes up tomorrow because I want to CHILL/RELAX

#textpost #I am caught up on my deadline important stuff and have time before I need to start my next big project #Which will be porting my Patreon shit over to Ko-fi #So I want a day where I'm not obligated to do ANYTHING #PLEASE UGH It's been one giant project after another for WEEKS #Complaining about this on Tumblr as a threat to tomorrow that it better have zero surprises waiting for me

this summer is going to be fun i rly think. this is the first time im not working sm & no academic obligations so look im going to do everything i’ve wanted to do - horseback riding, golf, farm, eat at cool restaurants, bake (like a lottt of a baking), volunteering, lazing in hammocks and reading etc.

#this is my personal definition of an indulgent hedonistic summer lol #it's insane i just realized i havent had a quote on quote obligation free summer since early HS #im definitely bugging tho w all this free time i keep having this 'phantom' feeling of upcoming deadlines & duties that arent even real #it's a bit unsettling to be like this so i think maybe i can compromise and get remote work too? since ik i'll be b/w states this time

the terrifying ordeal of not having any work to get onto doing

#yes yes house chores and all but god i could never and i don't have a deadline for them which means they're meaningless to my brain.#i need to do something that im obligated to do in a set amount of time! wheres the work! i am on high alert and its for nothing #i have nothing to do and i can't get over it. god #megamind meme even. no work?#🌙rambling #its alright its alright. instead of being paranoid over having nothing to do when it feels like i should i will continue looking through -#- the new words list

sag-aftra press conference.

In case you missed it, SAG-AFTRA just finished up a press conference where they talked to union members and the press about what's up.

Here are the big things (that I remember):

The deadline extension from June 30 to July 12 was made in good faith on SAG-AFTRA's part. They thought the AMPTP would utilize the extra time to come to the table with a fair deal. They did not. It is suspected that they wanted the extension to have more time to promote their summer blockbusters.

The studios wanted to be able to have AI scans of background actors. These actors would be paid once, and then the studios would be able to keep the actors' likeness, use the data for eternity without the actors' consent, and never pay them again. Keep in mind that only two percent of SAG-AFTRA members are big names. This proposal would've affected the other ninety-eight percent of members, many of whom are living paycheck to paycheck at the moment.

The AMPTP tried to turn union membership against Fran Drescher (current union president) by circulating a picture of her "living it up" in Italy with Kim Kardashian. This was a work obligation on Drescher's part. She's a brand ambassador for a fashion line, and whenever she wasn't on set, she was working with the negotiation committee via Zoom and text.

The video that was sent out to union members on June 28, in which they were told that the negotiations were going well, was filmed before the negotiations got to the core issues – AI, residuals, etc.

The AMPTP's deal was "disrespectful and egregious."

The other labor unions in the industry stand in solidarity with each other.

Fran Drescher called the AMPTP's plan to wait out the WGA until they were homeless "unnecessary evil."

While SAG-AFTRA is open to returning to the negotiating table at any time, leadership was signaled that the AMPTP was not interested; they believe the strike could last for a while.
