(FORMERLY JUSTSHANCE) Basically just a little sideblog for shipping Voltron characters, with a particular weakspot for Shance Discourse and hate free blog. My Art | Ko-Fi | My HCs
When it comes to tagging fan content, it breaks down like this:
Character's first name/series abbreviation: This is reblogged content!!
Full character names/full series name: This is my content!!
So for example, if u just want to see general Lance content on my blog, you'd wanna check #Lance. To specifically see what I've made of him, you'd wanna check #Lance McClain
My tagging is generally pretty consistent, tho I miss things here and there, and if a character has no canon full name I generally use the fanon popular surname (like McClain) or would tag them w name and series (like Lance VLD or something similar)
I feel so alone and isolated and sad and used up and neglected and taken for granted and if I lose my home and have to go back to that place I might just do it
I can't believe we're already coming up on the sixth anniversary of George Floyd's murder and the months of nationwide protests that sparked and policing has only gotten worse. Like let it not be underscored that even if Kamala won she also vowed to be just as 'tough on immigration'. The normalization of this violence is crazy. A better world is possible if we fundamentally reframe our concept of justice and public safety. Is a country that treats immigrants like vermin and parasites safer? Is a country that shoots unarmed citizens just?? It doesn't have to be like this.
i will ensure you stay alive above all else. even if what i do to make it happen is horrendous. even if it violates all your wishes or moral principles. even if you can never look at me the same way again, even if you hate me for it. because at least if you hate me it means youre alive
Hello friends, some places are going to get snow that aren't very used to snow. As a result, emergency rooms are probably going to see an increase in heart attacks due to people shoveling snow (we call certain snowfalls widowmakers for a reason!).
If you and your loved ones don't want to experience this, please be sure to gently warm yourselves up (exercise wise, although clothing wise is good to) before shoveling any snow. Learn the signs of a heart attack and listen to your bodies!
A freshly shoveled driveway is nice, but living is even nicer.
This is no joke! My perfectly healthy uncle died at 52 from this. And I had a neighbor who died in his late 30's too. When the body isn't used to strenuous activity in the cold, it creates a temperature differential that can cause a heart attack. Please be careful!
been listening to the knuckles raps from sa2 while pretending to not know the music is from a video game and i highly recommend the experience. really good from the perspective of a normal rapper who talks about ghosts trying to kill him and his ability to telepathically detect gemstones in the earth
i did this once while driving a classmate who knew nothing about sonic to college and she said in full seriousness ‘it’s so sad that he feels like he can’t depend on anyone but himself’
Trauma posting so y'know hit k or scroll by I just have no one to turn to rn so here's a vent
I felt like I made such great strides last year, only to most likely be sent back to square one bc the person I'm counting on just cannot get it together
I try not to feel resentment. Some of the things that have happened have been out of their control. But things wouldn't have immediately been a life ruining emergency if they could be just a little more reliable, and I feel kind of used by them bc my hard work is the only reason we/they've been able to stay afloat for months, and I knew that no small part of them helping me escape the abusive home I was in was because (as much as they genuinely cared and helped me a lot) they needed someone who could make an income while they kinda (with increasing urgency NOW but big hesitance all fall) tried to find employment... I knew that was what I was taking on, and for the help they've given me I was happy to do what I could, they put their all into everything they do and only want to help, for a couple of months they worked hard while I looked for an income, but somehow things always get worse for them.
Which I empathize with and have gone out of my way not to make them feel bad or at fault but.... They are!!! They ARE at fault in no small part of this going wrong, bad luck aside, and it just feels like they put things off Knowing that consequences are coming, and then it's the world's fault when they arrive/they are the world's most unfortunate that deserves it and i need to comfort them, even when I'm also being fucked over by whatever the issue is. And it sucks because they feel so bad and mean every word they say about turning things around, but have bad luck on top of mental illness/chronic pain, which we both struggle with, except I have to mask around them and walk on eggshells bc they can drive and I can't, so my mobility completely relies on their moods... And they've been promising to teach me to drive ever since I moved in, but circumstances have kept it from coming to fruition (this is I suppose partially my fault but when I first moved in I was decompressing from a devastatingly bad situation, so wasn't ready to jump into work and driving for a couple of months due to overcoming physical weakness from being housebound, which was fine bc we had another house mate with good income who was overwhelmingly willing to support me at that time, but was always going to move in the fall, after which I started working and current house mate lost their income very suddenly and hasn't found another stable income since, after losing their abusive job earlier that same year)
It's SO hard, and I wish I had never even left my previous abusive home bc then at least it would just be horrible as always, or I would already be dead. Instead I have to feel the sting of the fact that no matter HOW HARD I TRIED and no matter HOW MANY EXPENSES I COVERED for this person, it's ultimately the fact that they just can't scrounge together ANYTHING after YEARS, which has meant they put themselves in debt trying to catch up, and then still can't get it together.
And there's just no way to address this w them bc they are so volatile, and understandably feel BAD ENOUGH ALREADY, but I feel FUCKING BAD TO and got REALLY screwed over, and really don't know how much longer I might survive if I have to go back to where I left lol
Somehow just when I think we can cobble things together enough to not lose our house, some other fucking thing goes wrong
I don't want to think about going back to where I JUST ESCAPED this summer bc I think I might actually kms there lol
I just don't know what I'll do at this point, I feel like I've worked so hard but the other person I'm counting on is just so like.... Cursed. I try not to resent them bc it's so much bad luck, but not ALL bad luck, I haven't even been able to save up anything from this job while I had it bc I'm having to cover my bills/rent and a portion of theirs, and now they've lost all their sources of income for at least the coming couple weeks probably, and I'm effectively losing my job this month bc I was technically a holiday hire and corporate won't let the location hire more than a skeleton crew (and even that's a generous description, so like, I genuinely thought I had this job in the bag)
I just don't know what to do, I feel like I'm all out of cards, the last option I have is a non option, and the person I'm all-in with is a person who just can't ever get it together by just a supremely bad stroke of luck one after another
Wrapping up my bday, and overall feeling good, despite effectively losing my job right before LMAO
Honestly, I've made peace with the work stuff... The only thing I haven't made peace with and am trying to figure out how to make work, is.... I was just preparing to adopt a new cat, who I have named and loved already, but I need to figure out affording him until I can find a more stable job than the WFH I'm gonna be picking up to fill the gaps ...
I'm high-key literally considering opening up a Kofi goal or something like that, whatever I have to do, to keep my house and adopt this cat without having to move back into an abusive home
Honestly though, for my birthday, all I want is to keep this cat. Even if I have to move back There, I would have much more support than the first time. It's just. My siblings have always been close, but my baby brother has moved away this fall, and adopting this cat would mean my siblings and I all have cats that are siblings despite living in three different places ;') just sappy stuff
Anyway IDK just. Figuring out what to do. What a mess, happy bday to me 😭
