i slept too long this morning so i can’t have Second Caffeine or i’m gonna vibrate out of my skin, but not having Second Caffeine is gonna give me a headache 😭

alright, i have a lot that i would like to get done today. and it needs to start with me getting off my butt, doing my morning religious observances, and getting dressed. then a couple time-sensitive emails. then hopefully finishing and posting a couple tiny throwaway fics. then lunch.

ugh, i slept for a long time but i don’t really feel rested. i kept dreaming about waking up, but not actually waking up? except sometimes i did wake up because my joints were aching, and then at one point some neighbor had an alarm going off that i could hear through the open window 😑

me too me too

Isekai as a genre is exploding in popularity because it appeals to a universal desire to get hit by a truck rather than live in the 21st century.

the thing about ignoring things you don’t want to do is that *sometimes* — RARELY, but still, *sometimes* — they do in fact solve themselves. of course, i always take a terrible lesson from this…

ok. i know it's friday, brain, but let's finish strong. you had a good start to the week; think how pleased you'll be if you manage to wrap a bunch of shit up today instead of farting around on the internet. you'll be less anxious about stuff you need to do, AND feel accomplished. let's get it!

to me, quite young, post-surgery to put hardware in a shattered limb: “just don’t get in another accident like this one! your bones will still break around it, but (gleefully) the metal will just bend!! they’ll have to jaws-of-life it out of you!”

A question from Reddit that I'll answer here: "What's the most unhinged thing a doctor has said to you with a straight face?"

boy, the comments are just *insufferable* and they go so fast

istg, it is hilarious to me that even whether they are in korea or the US or europe, they somehow always manage to go live either right before or while i'm in the shower. it's just naked time with tannies, i guess.

is weverse broken or is my internet sucking, lol, i got the notification of tae's live, but all i'm getting is a black screen when it loads...

i recognize that this is a me problem, but gosh i wish they would give the whole lauding of ivy league schools a rest.

you know what, sure

I love Bangtan with my whole heart. Also, fuck Google Gemini and generative ai more generally. 🥢

had a long, serious talk w my partner last night about what it would look like to quit my job, and woke up this morning to multiple panic-spiral texts from one of my Challenging team members sent between 4:15-4:45 am. like, fam, i might need to quit my job.

delighted with how united my skyline is in “love bts, fuck ai” love to be an army with great tits and correct opinions

well, i made it basically two and a half days back from a two week vacation before i am once again fantasizing about quitting my job :lolsob:

i am not an engineer, but i work with enough tech that i am very firmly with them on all of this. none of my stuff should ever talk to anything unless i directly tell it to, and it should not automatically try to do anything without my explicit permission.

The Ancient Texts

i'm sure in many ways it sucks to have being fit/attractive be an actual part of your job, but on the other hand, it must be nice to have 'going to the gym' and 'looking good' be a legitimate business expense and time allocation instead of trying to squeeze it in around the edges of everything else

so, i volunteer with this woman who is very smart and very on top of things, and who also has *no* faith in the leadership, which is a little fair and a little unfair. but because of this, she keeps going off on her own to do things, which... sometimes it's helpful in the sense that it produces...

don’t drink coffee, don’t eat meat, and honestly can’t even remember the last time i had toast, so uhhhhhhh

don’t wanna RT someone’s story to piggyback, but: evacuation reminders! 1: have a go bag with important docs, meds, and basic clothes/toiletries 2: keep a phone list of addl items to grab if you have time 3: if you have no time, grab your dirty laundry-it fits, it’s stuff you like and wear often

whyyyyyy are you all trimming the fucking oak tree on the alley again?? you did this last year, and it is FINE it does not need to be brutally whacked back again, jfc
