dogs. art. books. yelling. often nsfw. 30s, mdnf/i.

Is this a good time to mention that in college my History of Translation lecturer (Michael Cronin) told us that one of the first vernacular translations of The Illiad was into Irish, and the translator had to give the main characters dogs because in Gaelic society a free man had a dog

Anyway. I've taken PTO for the 5th-14th to both use up more before being potentially let go once pfml protections expire eom, and to hopefully free up energy to buckle down on finding a PT supplemental income that could let me afford to stay in this house solo. I'm already exhausted.

Had a guy come view the house as a prospective tenant and was a nervous claustrophobic-feeling wreck the whole time with him despite him being objectively completely harmless & I'm v annoyed about my stupid ptsd brain STILL fucking with me about living with other people. IT'S BEEN AGES SINCE UNSAFE😤

I need u all to know how good I was at avoiding BTS daydreamy thoughts today to get stupid irl stuff done, like dodging fic ideas and edits left and right, full ninja warrior mental shit -- then I open bluesky and this landmine immediately blows me up fuck irl stuff. 😍 BB BI JK 4EVER!! 😍

today i am thinking about baby jungkook looking at yoongi putting on the maid dress and saying 'I'd make you my girlfriend' for NO REASON OBVIOUSLY

Ik everyone's frothing at the mouth for BTS in MA next week, and rightfully so! But may I also gently nudge anyone here toward the absolute *bangers* that my girls Rolling Quartz are going to perform at Sonia on 8/8? Watch all their stuff, it's all awesome. youtu.be/H3hW-ghY7-4 youtu.be/xErnZhlz_no

Alright, what does the Heated Rivalry fic tag "Shane walks Ilya like a dog" mean. Is it a reference to something in the books or show? Because there's like 2k fics using it as a tag, and they're not ALL puppy play, so I'm confused pls explain 🥺

Filling out this much nicer one, but now flabbergasted at the idea of some of these statements not being a universal experience. "It's distressing to be unexpectedly pulled away from something I'm engaged in." Of course it is! I was DOING something! Who's not distressed at that!!

My therapist is also having me fill out this one, which is already so much easier to understand. REAL on how much difference it makes when someone who thinks like you is the one writing the questions, holy shit. dlcincluded.github.io/MQ/

What now feels like ages ago, someone (@thefourthvine, maybe?) suggested that at any future ASD/ADHD assessment, I crowdsource from friends who know me the most accurate answers to the typical questionnaires. Soo. Would anyone like to help me fill out my RAADS-R etc? Maybe in a group dm or sthg idk

Nobody wants predictive data models to stop working for the people in medicine. Or translating ancient Pompeii texts. Or the other ways we were already using it. We want it to stop replacing workers, killing the environment, and stealing from artists. Hope that clarifies.

AI cures cancer.

Bluesky: actualky the AI didn't really cure cancer. Just predicted the next most likely word in a loop until a solution to cancer was extruded

More info: this is a 3BR 1BA in Brighton, MA that's one of two apartment units in the house. We have one ground-floor bedroom and one that's up a steep set of stairs off the kitchen available. 2 large common areas with three big windows each. Fairly big fenced-in backyard with a huge gorgeous tree.

Welp. Roommate says she's likely not resigning the lease in August. Boston area people, if you know anyone looking, this is quite a nice setup for very cheap considering the space available + current housing market, plus new insulation should drastically reduce future bills. Signal boosts welcome!

Art ladies just delivered a second haul of art supplies, which also happened to include 20+ big-ass picture frames of every shape and size and I am certainly not turning them down and happy to take them off their hands since I've got storage room but I'm also very man blinking rapidly at all of them
