Every modern multiplayer game is just a really expensive MUSH

There is no hit like people online having nice thoughts about my Halo fanfiction I'm LIVING

One of the most humbling experiences possible is finding a debit card you lost inside your own car 4 years later.

2023 Zita was so fucking locked in on writing the Arbiter

Trial by Fire (This might become the first artwork for a spinoff of my main OCs story) #mecharoaroc #halo #trialbyfire #unsc #marines #halospotlight

"Zita why is your Halo fanfiction always so gay?" "Listen this one is not even my fault. This is platonic. The Arbiter just has chemistry with literally everyone and that's how you know he's in character."

Thank you to past me for saving these cause I still think they're funny

Not to toot my own horn but:

Hey everyone I’m not really a habitual fanfic reader so please understand it means a lot coming from me when I say PLEASE go read this story that convinced me halo fanfic could be good

Hey uhhhhhh I finished my fuckign. My normal Halo fanfic that wasn't a shitpost. That other people liked. Exploration of a way the Arbiter and the Master Chief could've started to become friends in a timeline gap in Halo 3 because that's the kind of thing I do. archiveofourown.org/works/395900...

sometimes the self care is doing any writing at all even though it's not the writing you promised

Nonfiction is awesome I need to get back to my nonfiction picks

the horrible grinding noise and smoke smell is just me trying to open any of the 3 stories i'm supposed to be writing don't worry about it

Echoes of Orion #oc #halo

It could also just be that I'm Secretly Evil #secretlyevil

I like writing and I like being useful and I like helping people but I already have a 40 hour a week job and none of myself left over when I'm home from the 40 hour a week job so building a portfolio in a skillset I have no formal training in is perhaps not the most realistic endeavor right now

making the case to the firing people out of cannons company that i could bring great value as a flinder or possibly a smithereen

yard dirt delicious yard dirt i guess

I think I could hack it as a technical writer because I literally already do it for my job. I write up procedures because so much of this shit is totally undocumented. This isn't formally part of my job I just do it because it's necessary. But I don't have "professional" experience or training.

i have a new hobby i made up where i look at hundreds of ancient stock photo cdroms from archive .org and try to find cool shit in them. ill post more later but for now these are "tonights picks"

Trying to look for a new job and buddy it's rough

You love to see it
