i don't knwo what to do

it feels like we can barely even manage a 10 or 15 hour work week

how are we going to survive going forward

we make barely enough right now for rent and groceries and a *little* bit of fun stuff on the side but we're currently working as a TA and being paid very well for the amount of work we do (compared to the general job market)

but we can't keep that position forever, once we graduate we go off to do something else and. what can we do that will make enough money to live but also not completely overwhelm us with responsibility

kind of stressed and overwhelmed, having to grade a thing that we don't remember how to do and never really understood in the first place x.x

trying to read throuhg textbooks but not finding the specific answers we're needing

i did not end up actually doing this as it turned out we had taco sauce but i did consider trying it

*puts mustard on a taco*

empanadas

what on earth happened

eee, got a commission from @princessnapped@snouts.online!! this is a new form i'm trying on, the shape of a very old sona from like nine years ago

mightyena is Very Good

they could have called it a hand-and-a-half sword, that also refers to the same type of sword (one designed to be used with either one or two hands, between an arming sword and a longsword in length)

then again this also does the usual medieval-stuff-in-pop-culture thing where it uses "longsword" to refer to a one-handed weapon so yeah

this game we're playing censors "bastard sword" as "dastard sword" and it is somewhat amusing

I really appreciate all my friends on here. Thank you for being here. 💚

If you think about it, a hammer can't break, it can only become less effective.

it's kind of odd that red is the color of both the republican party and communism, which is pretty much antithetical to republicans

cerealizer/decerealizer

it also emphasizes person-first language which is fine for most things??? but not for autistic people like us so that feels a little lacking

it even goes out of its way to say that you should avoid using words like "crazy"

...actually a really good section dedicated to talking about microaggressions

including saying things to the effect of "this is something everyone does, even marginalized people, but that doesn't make it a thing that you shouldn't try not to do"

Hmm. This year's employee training on harassment actually mentions microaggressions. That's a good thing.

feeling stressed and could do with reassurances and closeness from friends right now i think

all i was doing was responding to someone's request for suggestions with the best suggestions i could offer, and they seem to have taken it entirely the wrong way or maybe they didn't and i'm just misreading the whole thing or i don't know i hate being misunderstooda
