You don’t have to look so happy

A job is a type of labyrinth

happy 6 months to me literally being someone’s lawyer. that’s still soooo insane to me. your tumblr mutual shitposting about books is also giving legal advice and going to court

03/19/2023 is Mothering Sunday 👪🌏, Client's Day 🌏, Pretzel Sunday 🥨🇱🇺, National Tequila Day 🇲🇽, National Certified Nurses Day 👩‍⚕️👨‍⚕️🇺🇲, National Chocolate Caramel Day 🍮🍫, National Let's Laugh Day 🤣🇺🇲, National Poultry Day 🐓🇺🇲

YALL! I DID IT! I had my very first patient today! It was a golden retriever who came in for a recheck of an ear infection and I got to look at samples under the microscope and talk to the client and examine the dog and prescribe meds and make recommendations!! my first ever patient as a doctor and it went so so well!! what a perfect first day at work as Dr G!!

my favorite part of watching the eclipse today wasn't even the eclipse itself (though that part was super cool!!) I just loved standing out on the sidewalk with what felt like every tourist and local and office worker in the city. everyone with their eclipse glasses on, taking pictures, being excited, watching and waiting together. it was such a cool vibe to be part of. I didn't have the glasses but a stranger noticed me milling around and offered me his to take a took. it was so cool.

Have you seen the Pointless episode today that mentions Michael?

Hi there! I know this is from yesterday, but I'm assuming this is referring to one of the contestants on the show revealing herself to be a nanny for Michael and AL. I did indeed see the clip in question, and while I don't have that specific part available, @invisibleicewands posted some screenshots here. The woman herself also posted part of this moment to her business' Instagram:

I think more than anything, I was a bit taken aback, as when it comes to nannies/au pairs/other domestic employees, it's my understanding that there is usually a GDPR/NDA in place that prevents said employees from disclosing who their clients are. I realize that it is possible that Michael (or Anna) gave permission for her to say this on national television, but I also can't really picture Michael ever giving permission, especially not when something like this has a chance of putting the kids at risk. (Not intentionally, of course...just that all it takes to find someone's location these days is a little information and frighteningly few clicks of a mouse.)

What's not surprising, though, is Michael and AL actually having a nanny, as we knew they had one in New York in early 2020 when they just had Lyra. And with Michael being so busy with work at the moment, it makes sense that he wouldn't have time to be as hands-on as he would like/want to be. From what was said on the show, the nanny is from Swansea, so it could also be that she is their nanny in Wales, but not in London, but I am not entirely sure.

It's also interesting to me that, of all the clients this Mel lady must have, that she specifically mentioned Michael and AL. (It's also worth noting that she said Michael's name readily, and then actually seemed to pause/hesitate before saying Anna's.) Again, a logical conclusion would be that Michael has been on Pointless previously and is a longtime fan/friend of the show, so this nanny saw it as a way of connecting her more to the host/the show itself. Whatever the case may be, the whole thing is giving "broken privacy policy" vibes, and I'm very curious as to what (if anything) happened between her and Michael/AL after the show aired.

Those are my thoughts, at any rate. If anyone who has more knowledge of/experience with GDPR or NDAs would like to weigh in, I'd love to hear your thoughts in the comments...

i like drawing these two. their designs are fun. i think it's the fluff, the heart motifs, and the stupid hats. and also their size difference

the bottom two are sort of like "what if valentino owned husk" ideas

i love him the normal amount i swear ✋🤚

close ups under cut

honestly i like drawing his fangs a lot i wish people did that more

(and no, drawing them when he’s being an “irredeemable soulless asshole” doesn’t count. but it’s not to say u can’t do that, hell, even i occasionally enjoy doing that. it’s not my favorite interpretation of his character, but if it’s done well enough it’s something i CAN get behind. but i want people drawing him with them when he’s being a silly little shit hehe)

ok im done ill stfu now

byeeee
