Dick or no dick confirmation Pickles was always going to be trans to me anyways; if he's swingin' somethin that's phallo babes, if he's not then his t-dick fat. What's not to get.

Also, Ruan Mei was the one who lent the Phase Flame to Ratio, wasn't she?

I'm not gonna lie this is clunky as hell so far, particularly in pacing and tone, especially the pacing, which is a shame because it's really getting in the way of a bunch of really solid performances from the cast throughout, but what the hell at least the team behind this clearly actually cares about the story being told, so it's at least fun.

actually what is it with people on instagram and theorising about michael's sex life (???) when he was a teenager on 5sos' post?? some people just go wild with comments and are lucky they're not blocked but also. quite frankly ruining it for the rest of us

work rant feel free to ignore i just need to get this out of my brain before i esplode:

My job not having any social media presence actually drives me insane...I'm going to try to rant without giving away where I work but my god. I work for an extremely well known (at least in the USA) organization and there's a lot of misinformation flying around out there and we do have a website, but just a website. That no one goes to or looks at unless they call and we direct them to exactly what they're looking for because they ask if we have it written down anywhere.

And I think it's incredibly...obtuse...to not have any presence at all. I'm not saying we need to have an extremely loud and huge presence. But even just like an official reddit or an official tiktok (we do have a twitter kind of but it is never used and I honest to god don't think anyone has access to it anymore) and even if those pages just have the most basic information on it, I think that would help. Just like "here's a link to our website. Here's our phone number. Here's which department handles what if you want to be asked for that specific department." I spend so much of my day on the phone with people that have questions that are so easily answered by just going on our website but no one does. Also don't even get me started on what they did to the website it looks like it got hacked now but it didn't.

This is a strange work rant for a Sunday night but I find myself annoyed. My coworkers and I send each other reddit posts of people misunderstanding things. I mean, they are willfully misunderstanding things they were previously informed of. In writing. But if we really want to make it better and more accessible for people, I think having the information presented in multiple ways would be best. Especially when we're dealing with children. These kids are on reddit and on tiktok and on twitter and they have questions and they are more likely going to go searching in those places to find information. And there are people that claim themselves as experts on all of those platforms but none of them work for or have previously worked for my organization. So they don't know. So these kids are getting incorrect information and then I get angry parents and children on the phone because they listened to the wrong person or organization and I'm standing by our policy and our rules and they don't like that.

Also sometimes they aren't angry on the phone because they were misinformed about something saying that they can't do this this or that and it turns out they can. And if they hadn't called they would have entirely missed the opportunity because they're going to the wrong sources because we, as an organization, refuse to be the source on a different platform other than our own.

And I get it. They don't want to hire someone to be the social media person because we are small and don't have the budget for that. But it's 2024. There are many people. Many staff. That have a lot of downtime (not my department unless it's the summer) and this could be the perfect task to give them. Even if it's just coming up with ideas to present. Not even necessarily filming anything. And videos don't need to show anyone's face or voice. We could literally do the most basic shit and it would be beneficial. It would count down on the number of calls we get and my coworkers and I would have time to do our jobs instead of spending half our time on the phone (do not ask how behind we are because it is sad).

There's something else I want to say about a different organization that I think this would help with but I cannot say without giving away where I work and also I can't bitch about our partner without causing problems. But if you live in the USA, you know about our partner, and I guarantee you hate them. But not as much as me. Never as much as me.

ive only managed to play like 2 hours of tactica so far but the gameplay has been genuinely really fun i was not expecting that

today is a good day :-) i went to see anna and she got all giddy when she saw me so i think she was genuinely happy to see me. it was so sweet, shes so sweet. im making my favourite tofu dish for dinner. i bought a new record player that i can connect my bluetooth headset to! i know its not gonna be the best sound quality wise but i dont listen to records anymore because i dont want to bother my neighbours. so. its gonna enable me to actually listen to my records again! im so excited!

@waffle-house-unofficial is also aroace

I know because it's me.

ooc (should use an emoji for this-): honestly didn't know this uhhhhhh yeah that makes it even weirder that some people are reblogging that poll trying to like- make a ship happen

i don't think i need to explain why it's weird to do that when one (or both) parties has expressed discomfort towards being shipped, even if you're being goofy about it

Hm. Cake box mix in the cabinet and we bored so we made some and it didn't taste good. Like it didn't taste bad it just wasn't good. I used to get so anxious abt baking because everything had to be perfect. The first time I baked I actually accidentally set our only oven mit on fire. My dad used to joke that a meal made by someone else always tasted better because you didn't have to waste your energy to get the product. He said that to me when I apologized for the pancakes I made him being on the crispy side. And I mean yeah I got it. None of the treats I made were as delicious as the store bought ones in plastic squeaky boxes. Some of that was some ignorance of baking techniques like the time I cried because the frosting kept melting off my fresh out of the oven cupcakes. And some of that was because I only had a handful of years of baking things under my belt. My early chocolate chip cookies still had chunks of flour in them because I didn't stir enough, while my Mom's were smooth and buttery. But this cake box mix doesn't taste good. Not like the cake I made for my best friend's surprise party, or the pumpkin muffins I made for a family that let me stay over more than 2 nights. Ten years of baking under my belt. And I'm thinking I actually crave some of my own food instead of something I can buy in a plastic box. All the love, passion, and time I put into something really was worth it. This box mix is dry and too sweet. We can't quite shape those little frosting flowers right yet, but I know I can make some pretty fucking good frosting. And hey, I'm still bored.

Aggressively promoting the bar where I work on all my social media

My follower count has been creeping up over the past few weeks and I’m starting to feel overwhelmed. This is just a heads-up that another soft-blocking spree is coming.

Itty bitty bullet point list about topics to address concerning the Caribert AQ:

✦ Khaenri'ah pure blood vs mixed blood —curse of immortality and curse of wilderness—. ✧ Clothar and Kaeya Alberich. ✦ Khaenri'ah's faith (Lumine's descent from the Abyss) and the Cataclysm's beginning. ✧ The Sinner, Fortune Lector —Heralds, Lectors— and Caribert. Fate.

Trains, in person announcements and websites all so utterly fucked that we've just gone home
