I think this is just a trend everywhere but I've been very frustrated this week by how much admin work is being outsourced to me as the patient/customer.

My orthodontist tells me I can make an appointment with the surgeon. I call the surgeon. They tell me I need a new referral. I call the orthodontist. They do a referral. I call the surgeon. Referral didn't come through. They tell me about their special unique system we have to use. I call the ortho again and walk them through the referral. I call the surgeon. They say the referral was missing some details so they have to do it again. I call the ortho.

The insurance company calls me about repair shops. I give them the name of the repair shop which I already gave them yesterday. They say they're not in their system but I can use them, but I have to call the repair shop to ask them to contact the insurance company. I call the repair shop and they say the insurance company is supposed to email them.

I feel like at a certain point these constant fetch quests become unreasonable?? Is it too much to expect these groups to communicate with each other instead of making me run back and forth between them???

Made this post and then the new property manager (who started on Monday and only finally emailed us today because I sent a vaguely professionally hostile email to her boss because I hadn't heard anything and was not convinced she existed) asked for a list of open action items which her predecessor should have had but apparently wasn't keeping track of, which I learned when I met her boss and provided her with the list of open action items, which I guess tragically died in a fire in the last 2 weeks since she was sitting at my kitchen table, being menaced by the skull. How many people's jobs am I doing now

You get transported into the universe of the last media you consumed. How are you doing?

This is better than my real life

I'm doing well

I'm doing fine

I'm not having a good time

I'm absolutely cooked

There is nothing different about this universe and my own

I've unfollowed too many people for having rancid radfem takes :( I need new mutuals

I know "money can't buy happiness" is a bullshit lie meant to keep the underclass from demanding better things, but at the same time looking at people like Elon Musk and Mr. Beast who seem to have never enjoyed a single minute of their lives...I do think that while money can make you happy, being ultra-wealthy makes you uniquely miserable in some profoundly fucked up way. It's like AI psychosis, having all the people around you never tell you no and always talk you up but also being the kind of people who don't actually like you and instead just want something from you just breaks your brain.

Adventures in Using Grindr While Trans

Sir I'm afraid you're going to be disappointed :/ I don't have one of those

[caitrose]

One of the funniest things abt using dating apps 2 me is how many cis men just straight up have NO IDEA how to take a halfway decent photo of themselves.

After the success of last year's Gay Prom outfit...

I knew this year's had to be even more ambitious! I'm the nonbinary representation in the chorus, so it's important to me to have some kind of Genderqueer Fashion Moment.

Here's my initial plan, sketched up months ago (based roughly on the jacket from Tokoyami Towa's solo live)

The plan was to alter an existing jacket, cutting it in half and adding gold accents, and attach it to a choker at the collar to keep it on my shoulder.

I have since acquired a jacket and blouse! The blazer is navy blue velvet and will look cool with gold buttons I think. And I'll get to show off my thigh high boots with the half pants! Here's the updated plan :D

Stay tuned!

[caitrose]

Oh FUCK yeah baby the pants totally worked

(Yes my drawing is mirrored so it'll be easier for me)

[caitrose]

My duct tape mannequin is done!

[caitrose]

I am now the proud owner of half a blazer as well as half a pair of pants! Cutting the blazer was scary lol

I decided to mark the line were I was gonna cut, sew along the line, then cut it after, that way the lining and the outside would stay together

I also used double sided permanent fabric tape and some spare navy blue binding to fold over the edge instead of sewing it, so there wouldn't be a sewn line through the nice velvet

Next up: figuring out how to sew down the collar so it lays nice, then swapping the buttons and adding hardware.

I also still have to make that choker out of the leftover velvet

[caitrose]

Buttons!

I also added suspender clips to the inside that I'll attach to the waistband of my pants to keep it from flapping open, and I had to sew the vents in the back shut because I twisted the jacket around a little and they weren't centered anymore

[caitrose]

WAHOO ITS DONE!!! I finished it yesterday but I put it all on for the first time today and

ITS PERFECT!!!!! ♪ヽ(´▽｀)/

I'll get try to some nicer photos tonight ^-^

[bumblebeebats]

The crazy thing is, ninety-nine times out of a hundred, if you asked me on any given day "Would like to see a picture of some genitals?" my answer would be "😰 No, that's... No, thank you. I'm okay, actually." I have nothing but the utmost respect for people who do engage with the penis side of the internet, but personally, I've spent the better part of two decades doing all I can NOT to have pictures of dick and balls or sexy bikini babe buttcheeks blasted onto my retinas constantly. And yet... to be denied the penis? To have a jumped up pile of javascript tell me, a grown adult with an air fryer and an outstanding council tax bill, that I cannot be trusted to withstand the sight of a bare nipple unless I let it scan my drivers' license? I will move heaven and earth to see that fucking nipple, friend. I will walk a thousand miles barefoot on hot coals before I give you big brother bitches my passport number. A thousand miles through the desert with five VPNs just to press my face up against the glass and see the last uncensored picture of two My Little Pony Characters sixty-nining each other, and I don't even want! to look at it! But I will! I must! for the sake of our fucking democracy!

Welcome back to Show and Tell Saturday my friends! I'm celebrating many things including my birthday this week (hooray!), so I've really got lots to look forward to. Maybe I'll buy myself some yarn as a treat! What's new in your world this week?

[caitrose]

Happy birthday!

Yesterday I got to show everyone this year's Gay Prom outfit! I altered the clothes myself :D

As the nonbinary representation of the group, it's important to me to have some kind of Genderqueer Fashion Moment lol

It took quite a bit of creative engineering to get the half blazer to stay on my body! It's got suspender clips on the inside that attach to my pants to keep it from flapping open, and it's attached to that choker at the collar so it doesn't slide off my shoulder.

tbh a lot of my advice boils down to “hey you know that terrible horrible looming thing you’re doing your best to avoid and distract and escape as much as possible but no matter what you do it just keeps looming and looming and ruining your life”

“just, fuckign, run straight at it screaming.”

"only 90s kids remember-" wrong, if you're poor and/or rural enough, old tech and fashion doesn't just disappear when it stops being trendy. We had dial-up until 2012
